I use the entry-level skills to create longevity

Chapter 233: Masterpiece, Late Bloomer

“Hard work can make up for lack of talent is just a consolation to ordinary people. People with real talent don’t believe this truth!”

"People with high talent are working hard, so how can people with low talent catch up?"

"After today, the number of people coming to Rising Sun Pavilion to attend classes will definitely decrease!"

A prospective alchemist spoke up, speaking in a decisive tone.

Although it seemed like he spoke casually, he was actually addressing those who had not yet become potential alchemists.

The harmony among the new disciples was not very good, and naturally there was competition among them.

There will be conflicts between different small organizations, and also conflicts among the disciples themselves, so it is very normal for them to compete with each other.

Not to mention just saying a few words now.

Furthermore, after some people become reserve alchemists, they naturally look down on those who have not yet been promoted to reserve alchemists, and there are conflicts among them, so it is natural to ridicule them at this time.

Although most people are in their twenties or thirties, they are not so rational as to dare not do anything. Besides, doing this now has no impact.

Just as Master Zhao Dan heard it, he ignored it and did not care about this kind of thing. This was considered normal in the Purple Mansion Holy Land. As long as no one died, their martial arts skills were destroyed, and their future as a cultivator was ruined, they basically would not care.

The Zifu Holy Land is not a demonic sect, but it also follows the principle of the survival of the fittest.

After all, strong people cannot be born in a greenhouse. Only by growing in a competitive environment can strong people with potential be born.

"Inspector Shen, what you said is irrational. Do you think that those who have not yet become a candidate for alchemy do not need to learn alchemy and give up on becoming an alchemist?"

"Our elders at Juling Shendan Peak have made such arrangements and continue to give opportunities to those who have not become preparatory alchemy masters. Do you think you are better than the elders?"

A prospective alchemist nearby spoke up, and his words were directed at the elders and others, which was also a deliberate attempt to stir up conflict.

There is competition between different organizations, which is clearly reflected at times like this.

This kind of confrontation happened more than once.

The new disciples do not live in harmony with each other, but compete with each other, which is also related to the resources for cultivation.

"Humph, Duan Anyi is only good at talking. If you have the ability, why don't you make the body-hardening liquid for them?"

Upon hearing this, Prosecutor Shen snorted coldly and did not fall into the opponent's trap.

Everyone knows that there are some topics that he cannot discuss.

The top figures of Juling Shendan Peak cannot be questioned, otherwise they will definitely be bullied in the future. Those top figures may not care about these words, but the people under them are happy to suppress them just to show their abilities to the top figures.

Yang Xuan glanced at the few people and did not join in. Instead, he went over to select a suitable iron pot and wood. He just wanted to keep a low profile and did not want to get involved in the fight between these people, because it would do him no good to get involved, and it might even affect his normal arrangements.

Thanks to some tacit rules in the Purple Mansion Holy Land, a lone wolf like him would not be targeted, but he would not get much help either.

There are many people like Yang Xuan in the Juling Shendan Peak. They form a separate group. Some of them joined the small group before, but later withdrew and are alone again.

Some people feel that they cannot work alone, so they join those groups. Therefore, under normal circumstances, they will not deliberately offend others because there is no conflict of interest.

The conflicts between these small groups will occur after they are formed into small groups. They can also get some additional tasks from the Juling Shendan Peak, which are more group-oriented tasks, and can be used to obtain more cultivation resources.

The formation of small groups within the Juling Shendan Peak has never been for any lofty goals; the ultimate goal is definitely to obtain cultivation resources.

No matter how strong one's talent in martial arts is, it still requires the support of practice resources, otherwise it will be difficult to improve.

Even for alchemists, it is the same. They still use various training resources to improve their martial arts skills and will not waste their martial arts skills.

Many people want to become alchemists in order to obtain more resources for practice.

These new disciples picked and chose in the lobby, and soon they had chosen the items they needed and were waiting in a good position.

The servants that Master Zhao Dan had arranged to fetch the spiritual materials for refining the body-quenching liquid arrived soon, and then delivered the spiritual materials to them as arranged.

The portion size is about three. If you feel it is not enough when dispensing, you can go to the public area to get some supplements.

"Once you have made your selection, you can then refine the body-tempering liquid!"

Master Zhao Dan said after looking at the spiritual materials that had been placed next to everyone.

He sat on the platform, his eyes sweeping over everyone.

In the end, those who deserve attention are those who have become potential alchemists.

Some words may sound hurtful, but they are true.

But there's always some hope.

Yang Xuan lit the firewood and heated the iron pot. When the temperature reached a certain level, he began to place the spiritual materials for refining the body-quenching medicine.

Each step is carried out step by step and very skillfully.

Even though he now spends most of his time on refining the tendon-strengthening pills, he also spends some time on refining the body-tempering liquid. The purpose is naturally to complete the tasks specially issued to them, the new disciples. With so many rewards for the tasks, he naturally will not give up.

For Yang Xuan, this is also a very stable source of income and it does not take much time. It is better than tasks that rely on physical strength such as collecting and planting spiritual plants.

After all, the task of refining the body-quenching liquid takes less time, the task reward is higher, and the prospects are even better, so there is no comparison between the two!

The entire refining process was very familiar to Yang Xuan, and there were no mistakes. After placing the spiritual materials, he began to control the fire temperature. When the medicinal properties were almost integrated, he began to remove the firewood and let the medicinal liquid cool down slowly.

After the quenching liquid was successfully refined, he poured it into the prepared utensils, and then lined up with the refined quenching liquid.

There are people who can refine the medicine faster than him. They use the alchemy furnace directly, which is more efficient and can save some time.

Yang Xuan also knew this method, but he did not use it because when he used the alchemy furnace, he was refining muscle-strengthening pills and did not spend any time on refining body-quenching liquid.

If one wants to become familiar with the alchemy furnace and refine the body-quenching liquid, it will take some time to learn and become familiar with it, but this is not necessary for Yang Xuan.

After the people in front were examined by Master Zhao Dan and given a brief evaluation, they left.

Today was a test of the ability to refine the body-hardening liquid, and there were no lectures, so those who succeeded in refining could leave directly. Of course, those in the small groups were still waiting for each other.

"Yang Xuan, the body-hardening liquid you refined is not far from the fine level. If you keep working hard, you should be able to refine a fine level of body-hardening liquid!"

"Next, keep working hard and become a formal alchemist as soon as possible!"

After seeing the body-quenching liquid prepared by Yang Xuan, Master Zhao Dan made a brief evaluation, gave a few words of encouragement, and then recorded the assessment results on his side.

Yang Xuan's progress is not slow, but among their batch of new disciples, some are already able to refine high-quality body-quenching liquid. Although those people have been exposed to alchemy-related knowledge before, and even have a certain alchemy foundation, the final assessment will be based on their demonstrated abilities.

So Yang Xuan is not the most outstanding one among them.

There was also encouragement in his words.

After all, only after becoming a formal alchemist can one prove that he has the potential to make alchemy. Otherwise, no matter how far he goes on the path of becoming a preparatory alchemist, it will be of no use.

Anyone who is able to refine perfect quality body-tempering liquid medicine has no potential to be promoted to a formal alchemist unless he can refine pills like the Tendon Strengthening Pills.

Evaluation is that simple, it is based on results.

"Thank you Master Zhao Dan for your guidance."

Yang Xuan bowed to express his gratitude, but did not tell him about his own progress.

When he passes the formal alchemist assessment, Master Zhao Dan and others will naturally know it. Before he passes the assessment, no matter how much they say, it will be empty talk and may even bring him some trouble.

When Yang Xuan walked out of the lobby, he noticed some envious eyes looking at him. They were envious of his ability to refine the body-hardening medicine.

After all, at this time in the hall, there were still many people who had not been able to refine the body-quenching medicine, and were still refining it for the second and third time, all working hard to refine the body-quenching medicine.

After Yang Xuan refined the body-tempering liquid, he left the Xuri Pavilion directly and went back to his residence. He could go back early today so that he could practice for a while longer and also refine a few more muscle-strengthening pills.

He is not completely sure yet, so he is still improving his ability to refine muscle-strengthening pills.

Yang Xuan was not so sure that he would conduct the assessment only when he was 100% confident, but he also had to control it at around 80%. The quality of the pills was above the qualified quality, rather than hovering around the qualified quality.

This step is not far away from Yang Xuan.

The test on refining body-quenching liquid medicine in the Rising Sun Pavilion was just a small episode for Yang Xuan. However, after the test, a large number of people came to the Rising Sun Pavilion to attend classes. It was obvious that they had faced the reality and switched to other directions.

Few people will insist on taking one path and make it work. Most people will make the appropriate choice after weighing the pros and cons.

The reason they did not give up before was that they were holding out some hope. However, after taking the test on refining the body-quenching liquid and receiving evaluation from Master Zhao Dan, some people faced reality.

Of course, there are also some people who are not far from becoming a prospective alchemist, so they are still working hard. After all, there are better options, so they naturally have to work harder for it.

The decrease in the number of people at the Rising Sun Pavilion had little impact on Yang Xuan. He was alone before and he is still alone now. Even if he is the only one attending the class at the Rising Sun Pavilion in the end, he would not care.

After choosing the path to take, Yang Xuan would keep moving forward. Unless he was going in the wrong direction, he would basically not change direction.

"Prior to this, Master Zhao Dan has tested you on how to make body-hardening liquid medicine, and I will also test you on how to make tendon-strengthening pills when you are almost a year into your school."

"Only those who can become a formal alchemist within a year can go further on the path of becoming an alchemist."

While Master Xu Dan was giving lectures to Yang Xuan and others, he also gave them reminders.

“Although there are some alchemists who are late bloomers, there are not many of them. Most of them need to show a certain amount of talent before they can go further.”

"After all, the resources for repair are there."

"During the assessment of refining the body-hardening liquid, the monthly cultivation resources of those who refined the body-hardening liquid were increased. This is support for people with potential, and it can help you go further."

"For those who don't show talent, they are one step behind in these aspects, and it will be even more difficult to catch up in the future!"

Master Xu Dan continued, this explains the essence and is also a reminder.

After all, those who finally attend the class will go through a screening process, and those who remain are the ones with the most potential and will receive more cultivation resources.

"Of course, all of you who still come to the Rising Sun Pavilion to attend alchemy-related courses are determined to become alchemists. However, if you feel that you can't go far on the path of becoming an alchemist, there is no need to spend too much energy on it!"

"For martial arts practitioners like me, we still have to focus on martial arts cultivation in the end, so there is nothing wrong with using our energy to improve our martial arts cultivation."

"After all, as your martial arts skills improve, your life span will also increase, and you will have more time, so you will have more time to catch up."

"So, never neglect improving your martial arts skills just for the sake of refining pills."

Master Xu Dan continued to speak, reminding everyone.

The martial arts skills of these new disciples are actually similar. They are all at the level of cultivating their spirits. The improvement of their spirits is not much, but with the passage of time, great changes will occur.

Those who go further on the road of martial arts will also be trained at the Juling Shendan Peak, especially those who are promoted to Yunshenbing. Those who are promoted to Yunshenbing before the age of fifty can be promoted to core disciples on the path of Dharma Protector and can still obtain many resources for cultivation.

"Okay, that's all for today's class. You have been promoted to preparatory alchemists. Keep trying to refine the tendon-strengthening pills and become official alchemists as soon as possible."

After the course, Master Xu Dan returned to the topic.

He naturally hoped to train more formal alchemists through new disciples such as Yang Xuan, so that his mission rating would be higher at that time.

Of course, the previous words were also his inner thoughts and some of his life experiences.

His ability in alchemy is sufficient now, but his martial arts skills are not enough, so he has not yet been promoted to a core disciple.

Although Juling Shendan Peak will give some preferential treatment to alchemists and extend the time for alchemists to be promoted to core disciples, if they have not met the conditions for promotion to core disciples by the time, they will still lose their status as inner disciples.

At that time, you will become the alchemist of Juling Shendan Peak, and your status will be similar to that of the manager and deacon in Juling Shendan Peak, but the title is different and the responsibilities are different.

As for the upper limit, it is much lower.

If one wants to be promoted to a high-ranking figure in the Purple Mansion Holy Land and obtain more resources for cultivation, one must naturally work his way up from the path of inner disciples, core disciples, and true disciples before becoming a high-ranking figure in the Purple Mansion Holy Land.

If one can become a Holy Son or Holy Daughter, the upper limit will be even higher, but few people can reach this level.
