Going Out to Gain Experience! Growing Stronger

Going Out to Gain Experience! Growing Stronger

After all, in this world, the relationship between master and disciple could sometimes be even more steadfast than that between father and son.

Father and son could turn against each other over all sorts of issues, but masters and disciples generally would not.

That was also why Venerable Yao had been ambushed by Han Feng back then.

It had simply been too unexpected, causing a mighty Nine-Revolution Dou Zun expert to end up surviving as nothing more than a soul.

"All right. Since you have successfully refined the Sixth-Rank Beast Flame, you can try learning to refine Tier 5 Medicinal Pills."

Medicine Elder was quite pleased as he spoke to Wang Chen.

Flames were an extremely important thing for Alchemists, capable of enhancing their alchemy abilities.

Wang Chen was a Fourth Grade Alchemist. With the boost of a Sixth-Rank Beast Flame, learning to refine Tier 5 Medicinal Pills should not be a problem.

At least, Medicine Elder did not think it would be a problem.

Moreover, Wang Chen had consistently displayed such extraordinary alchemy talent that Medicine Elder felt learning Tier 5 Medicinal Pills ahead of schedule would not be too difficult.

At that thought, Medicine Elder could not help but sigh with emotion.

A kid barely in his teens was already about to catch up to him in alchemy.

Yet he was happy again soon afterward.

For a disciple to surpass his master was undoubtedly a wonderful thing.

"I'll prepare several sets of ingredients for Tier 5 Medicinal Pills for you later. Study them carefully first.

Then you can try your hand at refining them. I'll personally guide you."

Medicine Elder happily made further arrangements for Wang Chen.

This could be considered exceedingly extravagant.

A single set of ingredients for a Tier 5 Medicinal Pill was worth no small amount.

Even though Wang Chen had displayed terrifying talent and had the support of a Sixth-Rank Beast Flame.

Fourth Grade was still Fourth Grade.

Saying he might be able to refine Tier 5 Medicinal Pills only meant that it was possible.

And it was the kind of possibility with extremely low odds.

Letting Wang Chen practice directly was truly generous.

Of course, the benefits of doing so were also considerable.

Alchemy was, after all, a test of practical ability.

By directly attempting to refine Tier 5 Medicinal Pills, even if he failed, he would still gain a great deal of experience.

His growth would definitely be much faster than through ordinary methods.

Only because Wang Chen's talent was astounding, combined with Medicine Elder's full support, was he qualified to use such a method.

Upon hearing Medicine Elder's arrangements, Wang Chen did not immediately agree.

Because he had his own plans.

However, Medicine Elder was his teacher and was thinking entirely for his sake, so he could not bring himself to refuse outright.

"What is it? Do you have some other idea?"

Seeing Wang Chen hesitate, Medicine Elder immediately asked.

As an old fellow who had lived for so many years, he could still tell something like this.

When teaching disciples, he preferred for everyone to say what they thought and never keep things hidden.

Because keeping things bottled up without communicating could easily lead to misunderstandings.

Which would eventually result in unnecessary problems.

"Just say whatever you're thinking."

Hearing Medicine Elder's words, Wang Chen no longer hesitated.

"Teacher, I want to go out and gain some experience."

Upon hearing Wang Chen's thoughts, Medicine Elder frowned.

"It's a little too early for you to go out and gain experience now."

Medicine Elder was naturally dissatisfied with Wang Chen's idea.

However, he would not reject it outright, as that could easily provoke rebelliousness.

He intended to reason with Wang Chen and persuade his disciple.

"You've only been at Jia Nan Academy for a little over half a year. It truly is too early.

Ordinary students generally go out to gain experience after two and a half years.

Right now, you should cultivate your Dou Qi and hone your alchemy skills.

The academy's goal is to provide students with a safe place to cultivate during the early stages.

Only once students are strong enough do they go out into the world."

After pondering briefly, Medicine Elder came up with what he thought was a fairly perfect reason.

"Exactly."

Hearing that reason, Wang Chen smiled and agreed with his teacher.

"I'm already a Da Dou Shi, and I also have a Sixth-Rank Beast Flame.

Compared with those students who have trained for two and a half years, my strength isn't too bad, right?"

"Ah?!"

Upon hearing Wang Chen's words, Medicine Elder's mouth fell open.

He had lifted a stone only to drop it on his own foot.

"Th-this?"

For a moment, Medicine Elder could not think of anything to say in rebuttal.

"Besides, my strength has risen too quickly, so I severely lack real combat experience.

Going outside to gain experience would also benefit my future growth."

Hearing Wang Chen's further explanation, Medicine Elder agreed as well.

"All right."

Wang Chen's words were indeed correct.

Every Dou Zhe needed to temper themselves.

Otherwise, it was all too easy to end up with high cultivation but weak combat ability.

Without experience, even breakthroughs would become considerably more difficult.

"However, you cannot go out alone. Go train with the Law Enforcement Team first."

Although he agreed to let Wang Chen go out and gain experience, Medicine Elder still imposed restrictions.

Jia Nan Academy's Law Enforcement Team possessed considerable combat strength. Joining them would also give him teammates, greatly increasing his safety.

"All right."

Wang Chen was not particularly pleased to hear that he had to join the Law Enforcement Team, but he did not refuse.

He would first train with the Law Enforcement Team. Later, when he wanted to gain experience alone, his teacher presumably would no longer refuse.

"Go join the Law Enforcement Team first, then come to my Study tomorrow."

Having discussed Wang Chen's subsequent arrangements, Medicine Elder naturally had no interest in staying in the Secret Chamber any longer.

The Cold Mountain Stone was not very warm. Unless necessary, it was best not to remain here.

Moreover, Wang Chen was about to leave to gain experience, and Medicine Elder could not possibly prepare nothing.

As Wang Chen's teacher, he at least had to prepare a few life-saving items for him.

After leaving the Cold Mountain Stone Secret Chamber, Medicine Elder swiftly departed.

Wang Chen did not waste any time either and went straight to the dormitory.

Although the Sixth-Rank Beast Flame had already been refined, Wang Chen had not completely refined it yet.

His Golden Finger was already growing a little impatient.

After enhancement, a Sixth-Rank Beast Flame would become an Eighth-Rank Beast Flame, equivalent to the Dou Zun level.

Although his own strength was a little too low for his Flame Spirit to rise much further.

Its upper limit was high enough, making it far more advanced than his previous two Flame Spirits.

This would also be of considerable help to his future cultivation.

"Enhance!!!"

The moment he returned to the dormitory, Wang Chen immediately activated his Golden Finger.

Without any surprise, the Sixth-Rank Beast Flame was directly enhanced into an Eighth-Rank Beast Flame.

Although the Flame Spirit was still only Tier 4, its power far surpassed that of his other two Tier 4 Flame Spirits.

At the same time, the appearance of the Eighth-Rank Beast Flame also strengthened Wang Chen's cultivation technique to a certain extent.

Its grade was still Mystic-Tier High-Level, but the power and quality of its Dou Qi had increased by thirty percent compared with before.

If he obtained another two Beast Flames of this grade, his cultivation technique would definitely evolve.

Unfortunately, Beast Flames of this level were still just a little too far beyond the current Wang Chen.

He simply did not have the strength to obtain them.
