This world was always like this no matter where you went.
In the cities or regions, there would be talented young people with rich second or third generation powers behind them.
Sons of patriarchs, Elders or sect Masters will always be praised as geniuses but Alexander had a black expression when they said this.
This was because it would be rare that they were not geniuses, For since they are in the womb of the mother they are bathed with pills and treasures to increase the physical constitution and innate capacity.
If a pig was bathed in divine Water it would not take long for it to become a Divine Beast.
It was that simple. Geniuses are geniuses because of their parents and the care they gave them.This was the privilege of being born into a rich and powerful family.
There was no greater science in this. If your two parents were geniuses in their youth plus the special methods that the great powers have it would be stupid to think that their son was not a genius.
So it could be said that geniuses are not born but made but the cost of producing a single genius would be astronomical even for a great Clan or power.
That brat of the Kail family must be from a family of Alchemists even though they are only a family of alchemy apprentices their income is very large due to the large profit margin they have from the sale of pills and potions.
Just thinking about this Alexander could not despise these rich second generation.
These spoiled children may have some talent but lack willpower. Something more important than innate talent. Only living in their comfort zone under the protection of their clan.
So ignoring everyone and that genius he entered the guild of Alchemists. Usually, the guilds were built in a standard way making all the guilds of the same level did exactly the same to save on building materials in the wholesale purchase in addition to having a base model when you need to open new branches.
This also helped experienced alchemists who no longer had to ask and will feel comfortable no matter what branch of the guild they went to, This was because everything was the same.
This was a class 12 guild the lowest of all guilds being the guild master an Alchemist of a medium grade star.
In the whole republic, it may be that all the branches of the guilds were class 12 and only in the capital one could find a branch of Class 11 Alchemists.
Alexander knew the Class 12 building very well so he quickly reached the rooms where private examinations were held and used the six-digit code to open the door.
These rooms were simple 5 square meters with an almost magical cauldron in the center and several reinforcing arrays in case the alchemist loses control and makes his cauldron explode.
To explore an almost magical cauldron would no doubt destroy the room without speaking that to explode a cauldron while refining a fourth or fifth-degree pill would make everything within a hundred miles ashes if there were no arrays of reinforcement and damage absorption.
Alexander entered the room and began to inspect the cauldron and the ingredients given.
The cauldron was in good condition and although the ingredients were not of excellent quality they were still decent so there was no problem.
He quickly knocked on a screen next to the door and gave it to (Start exam)

When he saw these numbers Alexander's face became somewhat thoughtful. For the alchemist who would review his examination would be an Alchemist from the Region of First Grade mortal countries.
In those lands, the alchemists of one or five stars were as numerous as the clouds so the competition was very fierce commercially speaking. so it was not uncommon for low-ranking alchemists to have extra income as judges in other regions.
So Alexander did not doubt. The Examination was simple had one hour to refine a batch of pills or potions of minimal Medium Grade if it was low grade I automatically failed the examination.
This was because low-grade pills were considered trash that only the poor buy.
Alexander wanted to get his High-Grade Alchemy Apprentice license so he planned to refine a High-Grade Elementary Opening Pill so as not to draw too much attention.
He quickly proceeded to light the fire and place the ingredients inside while with weak threads of Qi coming out of his hands he manipulated the fire and the ingredients inside the cauldron.
Learning Alchemy at the Gathering Qi level would make your crop progress a little slower than the others but while you manage to make your own pills and make your business profitable then your crop would skyrocket at a thousand miles per hour.
As for making pills in Body Refining was impossible, alchemy at that level was only limited to ointments or liquids that were called potions.
If he wanted to refine these pills in 15 to 20 minutes but this would attract a lot of attention so he decided to refine the pills in 50 minutes.
So time passed while Alexander concentrated on the pills quickly reached the last step of making pills and a rich medicinal fragrance filled the room.
"Bzzzzz"
Soon Alexander saw a notification on his communicator
[Congratulations on passing the high-grade Alchemy Apprentice exam, Now you can register for the Alchemists Guild Application, Use the internal market and have a safe place to sell your pills, If you have more doubts please go to the nearest branch, Remember to go for your emblem as soon as possible].
This message reminded Alexander of old times.
In his early days as Alchemist, the guild helped him enough to have sales and to be able to grow was a pity that after being vetoed by all the banks on the continent he could no longer use the guild services because even if he sold through the guilds, the guilds worked in the Sky Network so if you don't have a bank account it was impossible to do business with them.
So after those problems, Alexander began to sell his pills in Red Earth and Red Deep for crypto coins and then exchange them for spiritual stones in the black markets of the cities.
It wasn't the best life but he didn't regret what he did. The only thing he regretted was that he could not bring his expert fortune Heaven into this life.
If only he had it, things would be so much easier.
