The lady in white brought Ye Zichen through a long corridor filled with paintings and calligraphy and arrived at a hall that had a faint smell of medicine.

At this moment, there were several people standing around an ancient wooden table filled with medicinal herbs. Under the supervision of an alchemist, they were going through a selection test.

"Master Fu, this young master wishes to take the examination for apothecary and blacksmith!"

"I wonder if I can take the examination now?"

Ye Zichen sucked in the blazing fire of his life, then asked the Master Fu who had lost his composure.

"You possess the Flame of Destiny of this level, and you have passed the Refiner's Screening. However, you are still unable to take the Refiner's Examination. "Are you here to take the examination first or to choose an apothecary?" Master Fu suppressed the shock in his heart as he spoke with a much softer tone.

"In that case, let's proceed with the apothecary selection." Ye Chenfeng said plainly.

"Use your soul to engrave your name into this jade slip, and then drip a drop of blood on it. Then, you can begin the assessment!" Master Fu said as he took out a glittering and translucent jade slip.

"Alright!"

Ye Zichen nodded, then wrote Feng Chen's name and dripped another drop of blood on the jade scroll.

"There are ten prescriptions here. Pick any one of them, and as long as you are able to accurately choose one within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, you will pass the selection. However, you will only have one chance to do so every time, and if you fail, you will have to pay another ten thousand high-grade soul crystals." Master Fu took away the jade slip and took out ten pieces of yellowing parchment paper as he spoke.

"Then this one!"

Ye Chenfeng randomly picked a prescription and said.

Even though he didn't concoct many pills, he had assimilated a large amount of alchemy inheritances, including the experience of a top tier alchemist.

It could be said that Ye Chenfeng's pill refining experience was not any weaker than that of a top tier alchemist. What he lacked was only experience.

"The pill for growth rate, low rank Heaven Pill, after consuming it, it will increase by ten percent in two hours." The pill for growth rate, low rank Heaven Pill for growth rate, after consuming it, it will increase by ten percent in two hours.

"Can I start now?"

Ye Zichen scanned through the pill formulas for the pill, then looked at the thousands of herbs that were placed in front of him and gave off a strong medicinal smell.

"Of course... "Remember, you only have an incense stick of time, you only …"

Master Fu nodded, but before he finished, Ye Chenfeng's right hand shot out like lightning and entered the pile of herbs. In the blink of an eye, he grabbed eleven medicinal plants and handed them over.

"Master Fu, look and see if I've grabbed the wrong person!" Ye Chenfeng revealed a faint smile as he looked at the dumbstruck Master Fu and asked.

"You, you really aren't an apothecary!"

Master Fu asked in shock as he glanced at the eleven herbs lying quietly in Ye Chenfeng's hands.

With just a breath's time, Master Fu was able to find the herb to concoct the Speed Pill from the pile of herbs. With this speed and vision, Master Fu was sure that Ye Chenfeng was just playing around with him.

"Master Fu, do you think I'm that type of person? Furthermore, as far as I know, every single apothecary and blacksmith has records in the Heaven Pavilion. If Master Fu doesn't believe me, he can investigate me! " Ye Chenfeng said in a neither haughty nor humble manner.

"I didn't mean that. I just feel that with your level, how could you not be an alchemist with a Star Emblem?" Master Fu's eyes shone as he looked at Ye Chenfeng and explained.

"Master Fu, I wonder if I can start the pill forging and equipment forging examination now!" Ye Chenfeng asked softly.

"Of course, come with me. I'll take you to the assessment hall!"

Master Fu nodded and personally brought Ye Chenfeng to the examination hall that was made of white jade and was engraved with a huge cauldron that was filled with dense spirit energy.

If Ye Chenfeng could really become a top alchemist or blacksmith in the central world in the future, as the guide, his first witness would be enough for Master Fu to brag for the rest of his life.

"According to the rules of the Heavenly Pavilion, you can only take the level one exam. However, you will have two chances to take the exam every time. If you fail two times, you will need to compensate the herbs and blacksmith stones that you have consumed."

"Also, there is an unwritten rule in the Heavenly Pavilion that the Heavenly Pills refined during the assessment and the Heavenly Artifact belong to the Heavenly Pavilion. You cannot take them away!" Master Fu patiently explained the rules of the assessment to Ye Chenfeng.

"We'll follow the rules!" Ye Chenfeng nodded and said.

"Alright!" Master Fu revealed a faint smile when he saw that Ye Chenfeng was very cooperative. He said, "I wonder if this pill formula is yours, or if it's ours."

"I'll refine the pill that increased my speed just now!" Ye Chenfeng said indifferently, "Oh yeah, I'll have to trouble Master Fu to prepare another set of Cloud Essence Stone, Steel Wood, Golden Rock, Black Spider Shell, Silver Star Sand …"

"Alright!"

Master Fu nodded and immediately ordered people to prepare for Ye Chenfeng.

After a while, the herbs needed to concoct the pill and the materials needed to refine it were all placed in front of Ye Chenfeng's eyes.

Seeing that all five materials were of the highest quality, Ye Zichen revealed a satisfied smile and took out a low-grade Dao Treasure grade furnace from the Universe Stage.

This cauldron was something he had obtained from killing his enemies earlier. Although its quality was far inferior to the Vermillion Bird Cauldron, it was still sufficient for the examination.

"What a good cauldron. It really is a good cauldron." Master Fu's eyes lit up as he looked at the cauldron that Ye Chenfeng had taken out. He looked forward to Ye Chenfeng's test even more.

"Master Fu, may I begin?" Ye Chenfeng looked at the shining eyes of Master Fu and asked softly.

"Sure! "Remember, the examination is held in four hours. If you fail to form a pill within four hours, you will fail the examination!" Master Fu nodded as he reminded them.

"Alright!"

Ye Zichen nodded and threw all eleven herbs for the pill, as well as several materials for forging low-grade heavenly artifacts into the cauldron.

"Wait, what are you doing?"

Master Fu looked at Ye Chenfeng in surprise and asked in confusion.

"Save time, refine pills, and forge a piece." Ye Chenfeng said plainly.

"Ah …"

Master Fu's eyes widened in disbelief.
