"Fifth Elder, hurry and tell me-which grandmaster is in there?!" Grandmaster Gu excitedly grabbed the Fifth Elder by his robes.
This was an Alchemy Grandmaster!
He had traveled all over Firmament Star, visiting famous mountains, great rivers, and all sorts of Alchemy Masters, yet had never encountered a grandmaster in all that time.
