At this moment, the onlookers were in an uproar.
"Miss Xu, you've really got your eye locked onto the Junior Alchemy Master."
"He seems to show the same interest in her. Sigh."
"She's beautiful, strong, and initiative. Who wouldn't be? If I was him, I'd have given in by now."
"I heard that Mr. Liang wanted to matchmake the Junior Alchemy Master and Miss Liang though. They were so close before, but now..." "That's just a rumor. Don't talk nonsense!"
While they were discussing, Junior Alchemy Master, Mattham, personally led Eva into the examination room in preparation for the four star alchemist assessment.
At the same time, Zoella's master Tommie, a five-star alchemist, quietly approached Fade with a cold expression and stared at him.
Obviously, he had not forgotten about Artur and the rest from Wood Fragrance Trading who were waiting outside for Fade.
Fade glanced at Tommie and suddenly stepped toward the medicine refining room.
When he reached the door. Fade was stopped.
"Stop! What are you doing?"
Fade looked at him and said, "I'm here to take the test!"
"You are here to take the assessment?" The guard looked at Fade in astonishment.
Fade took out his three star alchemist badge and waved it in front of the guard. He said, "I have just passed the test of a three star alchemist. According to the rules, I am allowed to participate in the test of a four star alchemist."
"Well..." The guard was stunned and looked towards the alchemists in the examination room.
Devon, who had spoken up for Fade earlier, snorted when he saw this and said, "He's following the rules. It's his right to participate. What are you standing around for?"
"My apologies, Mr. Qi." The guard quickly moved aside and bowed to Fade.
Fade turned around and bowed slightly to Devon. "Thank you, Mr. Qi."
Devon's face was still cold. He waved his hand and said lightly, "Just doing my job. You don't have to thank me."
Fade did not say anything else and walked into the four- star alchemist assessment room.
At this moment, in the room, Mattham had already brought Eva in. He sat down on the adjudicating chair and got ready to evaluate her performance.
This was not against the rules. After all, Mattham was a six-star alchemist. According to the rules of the Alchemist Association, he was qualified to be a judge.
Eva was just about to begin. When she saw Fade come in, she could not help but be surprised.
Naturally, Mattham noticed Fade as well.
However, his expression was not a welcoming one. He glared at Fade and said, "If you want to participate then hurry up. Don't delay the time of other candidates."
Fade didn't say anything. He found his position and began to pick out his ingredients.
The scene quieted down. The only sounds that could be heard were Eva and Fade rummaging through the ingredients.
Admittedly, Eva had a strong foundation. She was well versed with each ingredient and how to deal with them. Seeing this, many of the adjudicating teachers nodded slightly in acknowledgment.
The other students outside were all excited. All their gazes focused on Eva as they murmured amongst themselves.
In contrast, Fade's movements were much more casual.
He looked as though he was picking fruits at a market. After dealing with them simply, he threw his ingredients into the Magic Furnace and started to refine them.
Not only that, his movements here were exactly the same as the previous assessments he had taken.
The fire in the furnace was calm and dry. There was no movement at all, and it was burning quietly. Fade stood aside with his arms wrapped around his chest. His face was relaxed.
If they did not know any better, they would think he was simply brewing a pot of soup, and not a four-star pill.
After about half an hour.
The Magic Furnace in front of Fade suddenly snapped open, and a soft sound could be heard.
A ball of light smoke floated out. Fade patted it lightly and a grayish-brown medicinal pill appeared in his hand.
Then, Fade took the pill and went over to the judges.
"Dear judges, I've finished refining my pill.
Please examine it."
Mattham did not have a good impression of Fade. Seeing his performance, his expression was filled with disdain.
He casually glanced at the pill in Fade's hand and waved his hand. "This is trash. You've failed. Get out of here!"
However, Fade stood still and did not move.
Mattham started to feel his anger boiling. He glared at Fade and said angrily, "Didn't you hear me telling you to leave?"
Fade said lightly, "Why should I leave?"
"Your pill refinement has failed, and you didn't pass the assessment. Must I spell it out for you?" Mattham responded rudely.
Fade's expression remained indifferent. "I don't think so."
"Are you questioning my judgment?" Mattham narrowed his eyes with a serious tone.
Fade said, "Yes, I am. I am confident your judgment is wrong."
