Doupo: I'm just an alchemist

Chapter 21 Going to school
Nangong Wuxin placed a white jade box on the counter, gently opened the box, and a burst of purple medicinal fragrance wafted towards him.

The shop owner swallowed and his eyes widened instantly.

"Could this be... a top-grade fourth-grade elixir, the Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill, which is comparable to a fifth-grade elixir!"

"Yes, I wonder if this pill can be used to pay the bill?"

"Of course, no problem! This pill is worth 1.3 million gold coins. I'll give you a discount on these herbs, 800,000 gold coins. Is that okay with you, sir?"

The shop owner gritted his teeth. This kind of elixir that can directly improve cultivation has always been in short supply. Even if you are given money, you have nowhere to buy it.

Especially for someone as powerful as him, if such a pill was placed in front of him, he would have to take it even if the other party was a little dishonest and asked for 1.5 million.

Maybe it won't fetch such a high price at an auction, but no one will compete with you for it. Once you pay, the pill will be yours.

These are all social customs.

Nangong Wuxin was not surprised either, as he had experienced this kind of thing more than once.

He raised his finger, gently pushed the pill, put away the 500,000 gold coin card, and turned to leave.

"This one is yours."

"Hey, thank you very much, sir. Take care..." The shopkeeper carefully took the pill and put it away.

See? I still have to say thank you for this. This shows how rare the elixir that can improve cultivation is!
As night fell, the four people who had been strolling around Canaan City for an afternoon returned to the castle contentedly.

Inside the restaurant, the long table was filled with all kinds of food they bought.

After eating and drinking, it’s time to rest, bathe and sleep.

Whether it was the boring two-month journey or the novel journey of this day, most of their energy had been consumed and they needed a good rest.

In the quiet night, Jingwei was still thinking about what happened this morning.

"Nangong Jing, someone like me also has his own identity, Master..."

The first ray of sunlight shone into the room, and Nangong Wuxin, who had slept soundly all night, opened his eyes.

After regaining my energy, I got dressed and went downstairs, and found that Zi Nu was already preparing breakfast.

"Azi, you got up so early, did you get enough rest?"

"Owner."

After clearly realizing the power of her master yesterday, Zi Nu's respect for Nangong Wuxin reached a new level.

"Remembering that I have to go to school today, I got up a little early because I was looking forward to it."

"Haha, I'm looking forward to it just like Ah Zi!"

After glancing at the time, Zi Nu went upstairs to wake up a lazy pig.

"Ah! Damn it, I'm not a lazy pig!"

"Huh, we were almost late on the first day because of you. If you're not a lazy pig, who is?"

After arguing and chatting along the way, they finally arrived at the academy.

After some inquiries, Nangong Wuxin sent them to Balin's class.

"Mr. Wuxin, you're here!"

"Haha, Mr. Balin, please take good care of these three."

"No trouble, no trouble, Mr. Wuxin, I have already prepared the herbs. I wonder when it would be convenient for you..." Balin rubbed his hands, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Just come over tonight with them."

"Sorry for the trouble, Mr. Wuxin."

"It's a small matter." After watching Nangong Wuxin leave, Balin looked at the three young ladies.

As long as he serves them well, he will surely benefit from it.

……

Medicine refining department.

Because of the noble status of alchemists in the Douqi Continent, the Alchemy Department is also a special existence independent of the inner and outer courtyards.

The place where the students of the Alchemy Department take classes alone is incomparable to any classroom I have seen before.

In the campus covering hundreds of thousands of square meters, a considerable number of young people coming and going wore badges symbolizing their alchemist rank on their chests, and many also wore alchemist robes.

There is no arrogance between his eyebrows like those alchemists outside. Maybe it is because this is the alchemy department, and the thing that is least lacking is alchemists.

Nangong Wuxin, wearing the robes of a fifth-grade alchemist, had been spotted by countless people along the way. After arriving at the Alchemy Department, he could clearly feel the changes in their gazes.

If the gazes of those people before were simply filled with awe and respect, then the gazes of those people from the Alchemy Department were filled with admiration.

Arriving at the department head's office, Nangong Wuxin met his mentor.

As a fifth-grade alchemist, he would be able to thrive anywhere. The elders of Canaan Academy couldn't be so stupid as to let him talk nonsense with third- or fourth-grade alchemists.

Then, the only person in the alchemy department who is qualified to be Nangong Wuxin's mentor is Elder Huo, who is a sixth-grade alchemist.

Well, it’s just a mentor, not a master and apprentice. It’s still too much of a stretch to call them a sixth-grade alchemist.

dong dong dong.

"tutor."

"Wuxin, you're here for class today. Why don't you take a walk around?"

"Canaan City is here and there's no way to escape. Your time is precious, and I dare not keep you waiting."

"You... If there was a genius like you in the Alchemy Department, I would even give you lessons every day."

Elder Huo shook his head. This kid really didn't know what a sixteen-year-old fifth-grade alchemist meant.

If he had such talent, would that old bastard Mang Tianchi be able to hire him?

Go dream!

As long as he continued to cultivate normally in the future, he would inevitably reach the realm of an eighth-grade Grandmaster. Such a person was even more noble than a Dou Zun.

Elder Huo shook his head. Perhaps this was the reason why he had achieved such success at such a young age. Besides being talented, he also had a genuine love for alchemy itself.

Even though he is already a fifth-rank alchemy master, he still acts like an alchemy apprentice, with an endless thirst for knowledge.

"Hehe, the disciple is better than the master. In the future, there may be students who are even better than me. Then the instructor will have his hands full."

Nangong Wuxin naturally had to respect the Douhuang strongmen.

When he came to the Douqi Continent, he kept these words "In the Douqi Continent, the strong are respected" in his mind all the time.

Soon, Elder Huo entered the teaching state. The course arrangement for Nangong Wuxin was naturally different from that for other students.

Moreover, Elder Huo had already known about Nangong Wuxin's hobby. He liked to refine different kinds of elixirs and create his own unique elixirs.

Such a hobby is perfectly normal for an alchemist.

It just so happens that the inheritance of the Canaan College's Alchemy Department is not short of strange and bizarre pill recipes!

You may not come across recipes for elixirs above the eighth grade, but in terms of scope, the collection of various recipes cannot be compared with that of the alchemy department even if it is an eighth-grade master.

This is the foundation of the number one academy in the Douqi Continent!
At the same time, this was also one of the "baits" that attracted Nangong Wuxin to enroll.
