Chapter 50 My soul is empty

As you walk into the Alchemist Guild, a faint aroma of medicine hits you in the face, making you feel relaxed and happy.

There were not many people in the hall, only a few of them were quietly doing their own things. Some of them seemed to have heard footsteps, and when they saw Master Otto, they couldn't help but salute respectfully.

Master Otto nodded at them and walked directly to a gate. Outside the gate, four burly men were guarding the place in full armor.

"Master Otto." They came forward and saluted.

Master Otto nodded and said with a smile, "Today, Miss Lin Fei will take the alchemist test. This is..."

Xiao Jue said, "My name is Hunxuzi."

"This is Master Hunxuzi, a sixth-rank alchemist."

Everyone bowed respectfully, "Greetings, Master Hunxuzi."

After entering the door, the bright lights illuminated the spacious hall as if it were daytime. At this moment, there were many people gathered in the hall, and whispers and laughter occasionally sounded in the hall.

There is also a fourth-grade alchemist here, Foklan, the president of the Black Rock City Alchemist Guild.

In the center of the hall, there were more than a dozen stone platforms carefully set up, separated from each other, and various alchemy instruments were placed on the stone platforms.

At this time, seven young people were standing on these stone platforms, looking somewhat impatient. Lin Fei said something to Master Otto and hurried over.

Frank looked at Xiao Jue beside Master Otto and asked, "What is this?"

Otto smiled and said, "This is Master Hunxuzi, a sixth-grade alchemist."

"Hello, Master." Frank didn't care about Xiao Jue's appearance and greeted him respectfully.

"Yeah." Xiao Jue nodded and stood here silently.

Otto glanced at the hourglass on the table, then turned his head and asked Frank beside him, "Foklan, where's Xue Mei? Why hasn't she come out yet? The test time is almost up!"

"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious. This is Xue Mei's first assessment. She must be fully prepared." Waving his hand, Frank looked at Otto, who was waiting impatiently, and a smile appeared on his old face.

Hearing this, Otto curled his lips and snorted, "There are still ten minutes left. If you don't come out, even if you are the president, you can't extend the waiting time for the assessment for no reason."

Otto couldn't help but laugh and said, "Don't think I don't know. When you gave Xue Mei a private test, didn't she explode the medicine cauldron just like that?"

Frank shook his head and scolded with a smile, "When Lin Fei took her first test two years ago, she was just messing around, right? She almost blew up the medicine furnace back then."

A faint voice with a hint of coldness suddenly sounded behind him.

"Teacher, I'm sorry, I'm late."

The sudden, icy, delicate voice was like the crisp, ethereal sound of rocks striking each other on a snowy mountain. It was quite melodious. After the sound rang out, at least half of the young men in the hall turned their slightly fiery gazes in the direction of the sound. Xiao Jue looked at the silver-robed woman gracefully advancing from the gate, his eyebrows raised slightly, and a subtle look of surprise flashed across his eyes.

At the gate, there was a woman with a slender figure, eyes and eyebrows as clear as the cold spring on the snow-capped mountains. She had a delicate face, long and thin eyebrows, and a slender body. She was wearing a tight silver dress.

The silver clothing and the skin as warm as jade complement each other, making the woman have a special metallic and cold charm that is difficult to conceal. What is most surprising is that this woman in the silver robe actually has long silver hair that reaches her waist.

This kind of silver is not the kind of pale silver that mutates due to some disease. It is as soft and fluttering as silver threads, but it gives the woman in silver robe a strange attraction.

Compared with her, the woman named Lin Fei lacked such an ethereal temperament, especially the three thousand soft silver threads that were pure silver yet still had a luster, which made some women feel jealous.

The silver-robed woman walked up slowly, passed by Xiao Jue without looking away, and went straight to Frank.

Standing aside, Xiao Jue sniffed the faint body fragrance left behind by her steps, and inwardly smiled and exclaimed in admiration, "Excellent."

"Teacher!" The silver-robed woman came in front of Frank with a faint smile on her delicate face. The smile was like a snow lotus blooming on an iceberg, which made people feel amazed.

"Haha, you're finally here. Old guy Otto can't wait for a long time." Staring at the proud student in front of him with soft eyes, Frank smiled happily.

"Master Otto!" The silver-robed woman turned her head slightly and bowed slightly to Otto, who rolled his eyes.

"Xue Mei girl is still so polite, better than me..." Otto nodded with a smile. Turning back, he looked at his student's pouting mouth. He couldn't help but shook his head and quickly changed the subject: "Well, okay, okay, now that we're here, let's get started."

Xue Mei nodded slightly and walked onto the stone platform under the gaze of everyone. There was just an empty platform between her and Lin Fei.

When the two looked at each other, there were faint sparks flickering, and it seemed that there was not a harmonious relationship between them.

Lin Fei patted the uniform medicine cauldron in front of her with her delicate hand. She raised her nose and snorted softly, "Hmph, don't let the cauldron explode again later. It's okay if you fail, just don't bother me."

Xue Mei smiled faintly and said, "I think even without the interference, the possibility of your failure should be quite high."

Although she seemed a little cold on the surface, she still found it difficult to remain absolutely calm towards this opponent with whom she had been competing for several years.

The alchemist assessment began below. Master Otto looked at Xiao Jue and couldn't help asking, "Master Hunxuzi, that guy Gut values ​​treasures like his life. If you want to get the Ice Spirit Cold Spring from him, you must pay a precious treasure, otherwise he won't be willing to exchange with you."

He was still worried that Xiao Jue would rob Gu Te, and they would not be able to bear it if Gu He took his anger out on them.

Xiao Jue didn't care about Gute's other treasures. He didn't lack those things, such as medicinal herbs. The medicinal herbs that Gu Yuan gave him were enough for him to become an eighth-grade alchemist. Xiao Jue cared more about treasures that could improve his strength.

He took out a bottle of Companion Amethyst Source and handed it to Master Otto, saying, "This is the Companion Amethyst Source of the Amethyst Winged Lion King. Master Otto, please go and exchange it with Gut on my behalf. Now that I have the Companion Amethyst Source, I plan to leave."

Master Otto didn't recognize the Companion Amethyst Source, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Can this thing be compared to the Companion Amethyst Source in terms of its preciousness?"
