After Zong Qi's introduction, Gu Xuan discovered that the mission that he needed to do was very simple, it was simply to help organize the spirit herbs, and Mu Ling was the main person in charge of this matter. In reality, Gu Xuan was only a helper.
When Zong Qi sent Gu Xuan to Mu Ling and told him that Gu Xuan had successfully stayed behind, Mu Ling was so shocked that her cherry lips started to open. As Zong Qi's disciple, she knew how strict her master was.
As for those apprentice alchemists, Zong Qi's requirements were strict to the point that it made one's hair stand on end.
Many level one alchemist were sent flying because they did not reach the standard, and Gu Xuan, who was not even an alchemist apprentice, actually succeeded in staying behind. Furthermore, looking at his own master's expression, he seemed to be extremely satisfied with Gu Xuan.
This surprised Mu Ling, but since Gu Xuan had already succeeded, Mu Ling could only accept it, although she still did not understand how Gu Xuan was able to achieve such a feat.
When Zong Qi left, Mu Ling began to introduce the work that Gu Xuan had to do.
"These are all spiritual medicines that my master needs to refine and they are stored in the spiritual medicine warehouse. What we have to take responsibility for is to keep the spiritual medicine in there." Mu Ling introduced Gu Xuan to him, "Of course, you are mainly my master's assistant. If my master wants to refine some kind of medicinal pellet, he would need you to prepare all the medicinal herbs he needs."
"Alright." Gu Xuan nodded his head, the most difficult part of this mission was to understand the medicinal properties of the various spirit herbs, as well as the things to take care of. For ordinary people, and even a first tier alchemist, it would be extremely difficult, and with these basic things, how would it be difficult to obtain the Gu Xuan of Grandmaster of The Pill Dao.
"You should slowly familiarize yourself with the properties of these elixirs." Mu Ling handed over a book. "This book contains the general knowledge of elixirs. Take a careful look."
Gu Xuan shook his head, and did not extend his hand to receive it: "I am already familiar with all of these, there is no need to continue being familiar with them."
Mu Ling looked at Gu Xuan in shock, and then "came to a sudden realization". Gu Xuan was not an alchemist, but she had obtained the recognition of her master, which was probably because Gu Xuan was familiar with the spirit medicine.
Mu Ling pondered for a moment, then said: "Since you are familiar with spirit medicine, this means that your memory is good, this means that your Soul Power is not low, and if that's the case, you should have the potential to become an alchemist!"
"Forget it, Pharmacist." Gu Xuan shook his head.
"How can this be?" Mu Ling frowned and said unhappily: "Even though you are old and have missed the best time to study, as long as you work hard, you can still become an alchemist apprentice. Since you are here, and spend four hours in the Pill Dao Pavilion everyday, are you not going to make a joke?"
Mu Ling did not give Gu Xuan a chance to speak, and directly decided: "From today onwards, I will teach you some knowledge on alchemy everyday. You must learn it."
"Fine." Gu Xuan could only nod his head helplessly. Since the time he spent in the Pill Dao Pavilion was fixed, then he would have nothing to do.
Although Gu Xuan didn't have such intentions, as a normal man, if he had a pretty girl by his side, he wouldn't refuse her entry …
Four hours later, Gu Xuan stretched his back and walked out of the Pill Dao Pavilion with a special smile on his face.
"This little girl is quite kind. She taught me so many alchemy basics."
Towards Mu Ling's seriousness, Gu Xuan also didn't know whether to laugh or cry. With his Pill Dao, he actually wanted to learn how to refine medicine from the beginning, and even a mere Second Grade alchemist explaining it to him. This was truly a somewhat funny thing.
If Mu Ling found out that the target of her painstaking teaching was actually Pill Emperor who relied on her Pill Dao to rule the world, she wondered what kind of expression she would have. She would be very surprised, but it was likely that she would never have the chance to find out about it in her entire life.
During the time that Gu Xuan had left, the news of him being "defeated" by Chu Lin had also spread, becoming the banter of many Elite Student in the Heavenly Academy.
For example, the Zhou Juechu two years ago, not only did he maintain his seventy-eighth position, he even defeated the sixty-second place student. His ranking increased even further, and in just one year, he broke through to the Sovereign Level realm.
Gu Xuan had also entered the Heavenly Academy as a new student, but compared to Zhou Juechu, it was much worse. His realm was low, and the Heavenly Academy that he had entered through seizing the Shanhe City was merely a cheap trick in the eyes of these people.
And Gu Xuan was positioned even closer to the front, with a total of fifty-three spots. Under countless preferential treatment, Gu Xuan actually lost to Chu Lin, this truly did not live up to its name.
When Gu Xuan returned to the one hundred thirty-first loft, he found that there were already two people who had challenged him, and were ranked one hundred fifty-eight and one hundred sixty-five, respectively.
"Accept!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Gu Xuan chose to accept all of them.
The two Elite Student s were overjoyed when they realized that Gu Xuan had accepted the challenge. A hundred Treasure Point was something they would need to accumulate for a long time in order to obtain, and once they defeated Gu Xuan, they would be able to obtain an amount equivalent to a few months' worth of experience.
At this time, not only were these two people challenging Gu Xuan, but all the Elite Student s from number one hundred and thirty-two to number fifty-one, with the exception of Chu Lin, the rest were all excited!
Because at the same time, Gu Xuan had challenged seventy-nine people!
"Yi, Gu Xuan's challenge? Gu Xuan actually wants to challenge me, I accept! "
"What's going on? This Gu Xuan ate a leopard's gall bladder, and dared to challenge me? Give the Treasure Point to me, and I, Wang Hu, will accept it! "
"Humph!" This Gu Xuan who just lost to Chu Lin yesterday, actually wants to challenge me! I am ranked one hundred and thirty, and my rank is even higher than Chu Lin's! "
When Gu Xuan issued out his challenge, almost everyone chose to accept it!
A hundred Treasure Point would already be a huge sum of money in the hands of these Elite Student, especially for those who were ranked outside of fifty.
However, when these people realised that Gu Xuan had unexpectedly challenged so many people at the same time, they lost their excitement as well. After all, Gu Xuan's Treasure Point s were limited, at most, only a few people would have the chance to win, and once Gu Xuan lost his Treasure Point, then the battle would be annulled. Although the battle could only take place in a month, in a month's time, where would Gu Xuan be able to obtain so many Treasure Point.
In less than half a day's time, all of the challengers had chosen to accept the challenge. Gu Xuan's face also revealed a trace of a smile, and now, it was time to harvest the Treasure Point.
Heavenly Academy were destined to boil because of him.
