The girl looked at Jia Lie Jun's back and stood there blankly, with a complicated expression on her face. Today she truly realized what it means to have someone outside the world and a sky outside the world.

Before she met Jia Lie Jun, she was the youngest first-grade alchemist in Yang Yan City. No one among the younger generation could compare with her. Everyone flattered her. Gradually, she was lost in the flowers and applause. It was not until today that she was awakened.

"I'm so arrogant. Although I am number one in this Yang Yan City, I am nothing in this Jia Ma Empire. However, I will not give up." Lu Yu Meng clenched his fists, and his confused eyes gradually became determined.

"Why haven't you come down yet? It's been more than an hour."

"Please, this is a third-grade alchemist exam, not a first-grade alchemist exam. If this kid succeeds, he will have created a miracle. Even Pill King Gu He is far behind him at this age."

Everyone was waiting anxiously in the hall, as if they were participating in the third-grade alchemist examination in person.

The sound of "ta-da" footsteps came from upstairs, and everyone hurriedly got up and gathered at the stairs.

"It seems that these little guys also want to know the results." The old man laughed when he saw everyone blocking the stairs. His face was rosy and he seemed to be a little excited.

"Let us congratulate little brother Jia Lie for being promoted to the third grade alchemist." The old man's voice was trembling, and his eyes were full of shock when he looked at Jia Lie Jun.

When he was young, he traveled all over Jia Ma Empire, and he had never seen such an amazing genius as Jia Lie Jun. He had also never heard of a third-grade alchemist in the 17th or 18th grade. Over time, it will definitely exceed Pill King Gu He.

Everyone was stunned for a moment after hearing this, their eyes full of disbelief. Being a third-grade alchemist was their lifelong goal, but the young man in front of them had realized their lifelong dream at the age of seventeen or eighteen. Then there was a burst of warm applause, and the eyes were full of envy and awe.

"Haha, you kid, don't tell me again that you want to take the test for a fourth-grade alchemist. Yang Yan City's Alchemist Guild is not qualified to be certified as a fourth-grade alchemist." The old man laughed.

"Master, please stop joking. A third-grade alchemist is already my limit." Jia Lie Jun chuckled. This is not Jia Lie Jun's modesty. The third-grade alchemist is indeed the highest level he can reach at present, because the alchemist's handbook Xuan Hao left for him only records the third-grade.

In the hall, everyone was sitting on both sides, looking excited. After a while, several maids came in carrying a tray with a black robe placed on it. Everyone stared at the robe, their eyes shining.

"I think back then, when I succeeded in the first test, I was just like them. Now I am just a bad old man. Decades have passed in the blink of an eye." Looking at the young faces of everyone, the old man had a look of reminiscence in his eyes and sighed in his heart.

Jia Lie Jun took over the robe, and a faint medicinal fragrance penetrated into the nose, refreshing her heart and mind. After putting on the robe, a cool feeling spread throughout the body, and even the spirit felt a little better.

"This is a special robe for a third-grade alchemist. Before it is made, its materials must be soaked in the liquid for several months. Not only can it refresh the mind, but it can also be immune to some poisons. At the same time, the defensive power of this alchemist's robe is also very good, comparable to armor. The cost of this robe alone costs hundreds of thousands of gold coins." The old man introduced while putting on Alchemist Badge for Jia Lie Jun.

"Alchemist Guild is really wealthy. A hundred thousand gold coins are equivalent to more than half a month's profit of some small families." Jia Lie Jun secretly clicked his tongue.

Jia Lie Jun walked to the mirror and saw the young man in the mirror with sharp features, a pair of sharp eyes, a high nose, wearing a black robe, and the third-grade alchemist Alchemist Badge on his chest shining brightly. One has to sigh, what a charming and handsome young man.

Everyone looked at the badge on Jia Lie Jun's chest. Three silver ripples reflected the dazzling light. This badge was their lifelong goal. They refined medicine day and night and studied pharmacology just for this honor.

"Okay, now that the assessment is over, please disperse." The old man waved to everyone in the hall. Everyone wore robes and left Alchemist Guild in small groups with faces full of joy.

"I wonder why Master asked me to stay?" Jia Lie Jun stood up and asked after everyone left.

The old man took out a purple card from his arms and handed it to Jia Lie Jun. He chuckled and said, "This is Alchemist Guild's special purple card. With this card, you can mobilize some of the Alchemist Guild's resources. For example, if you want to purchase a certain medicinal material, you can issue an order at the Alchemist Guild."

"Thank you, Master." Jia Lie Jun took the purple card and bowed in thanks. In fact, this card is not of much use to Jia Lie Jun, because he does not need to look for some of his most precious medicinal materials like Xiao Yan.

"Master, you kept me here just for this reason, right?" Jia Lie Jun said calmly with a raised corner of his mouth.

"Is the purple flame you used Beast Fire?" The old man pondered for a moment and asked.

"Yes, this Purple Fire is indeed a kind of Beast Fire." Jia Lie Jun clicked, wondering what the old man was asking about such a thing, but he didn't think much about it.

"The fruit plate is as I expected. This Purple Fire is extremely violent and has a hint of wildness." The old man muttered in a low voice, then rubbed his hands and tried to open his mouth but closed it, as if it was a bit difficult to speak.

"Master, you can ask whatever you want. As long as it doesn't involve my bottom line, I won't hide it."

"Okay, then I'll show off my old face. I want to ask where you got that purple flame."

Hearing this, Jia Lie Jun immediately understood that this old man originally had Purple Fire's idea. No wonder it was hard to tell him. It is indeed rude to ask others how they got their chance.

"Master, I advise you to give up this idea. I only obtained it from Amethyst Winged Lion King by chance. I almost lost my life because of this." Jia Lie Jun comforted.

Hearing this, the old man felt a little regretful. Trying to force the flame out of Amethyst Winged Lion King was tantamount to courting death. He sighed and said, "I have been stuck as a fourth-grade alchemist for many years. Seeing that you have your own flame at a young age, I am I thought you had a way to get Beast Fire, but I didn't expect you to work hard to get it. Alas, it was my fantasy that I wanted to improve my alchemy skills by getting Beast Fire."

Jia Lie Jun was helpless about this. In fact, even if he knew, he would not tell the old man. The two just met by chance and did not have a deep friendship.
