Chapter 1126: Making Things Hard on Him
Editor: Atlas Studios
Yan Ye was the one who taught her alchemy. Although she wasn’t under Yan Ye’s name, she felt a little repulsed by being someone else’s student. Especially since Cao Can had taken her in purely for Mo Li.
“I was too rash!” Cao Cancheng apologized sincerely to Beiting Huang. He naturally wasn’t too interested in being Beiting Huang’s teacher, and it was all for Mo Li. This original intention made him very touched when he heard Beiting Huang’s words, and he felt even more fond of Beiting Huang.
Jia Rui heaved a sigh of relief, while Mo Li stopped talking. Although he heard Beiting Huang say this, he still looked very indifferent.
Everyone inside and outside the Alchemist Union seemed to heave a sigh of relief. However, at the same time, they were also very surprised by Beiting Huang’s rejection. No one had expected Beiting Huang to refuse. She even refused without saying who her teacher was. What made people think more was that she looked down on others.
“She actually rejected the president’s invitation. Is there something wrong with her brain?” Someone’s eyes widened in disbelief.
“Who else in the Central Continent has a higher standard than the president? She doesn’t even want a master alchemist teacher who is a Seven Sword Spiritual Grandmaster. This kid is crazy!”
“You don’t know how to appreciate favors!” Someone waved his hand, wishing he could kill Beiting Huang with a sword.
They guessed that Mo Li was thinking the same thing. However, Beiting Huang didn’t care about his sudden change in attitude at all. She followed Cao Can and the others across the hall and walked towards the back.
The entire Alchemist Union was in a triangular formation. There were three-story-tall buildings on all sides that were used as offices and residences for the members of the Alchemist Union. In the middle was an empty space that was built into a ring-shaped staircase. On each step, a stove was built. There was also a staircase that formed a large-scale alchemy venue with many people participating.
At this time, over a thousand people had already gathered in the alchemy venue. They were all gathered together. In the middle of the venue, many people were already in position, ready to begin the assessment at any time.
It was impossible for Beiting Huang to rush in to take the exam so abruptly. She asked a few people where the registration location was, but they only looked at her strangely with a faint smile. Seeing that a few people were like this, Beiting Huang knew that someone had probably said something to make things difficult for her.
Her gaze could not help but gradually turn cold. She spread out her mental strength. When she felt someone secretly looking at her, she looked up and indeed saw Jia Rui hiding in the crowd. Beside her stood a tall man in an alchemist’s robe. He observed her with a cold gaze and a provocative smile on his lips.
“Idiot!” A familiar voice sounded in his ear. Beiting Huang turned around. At some point, Mo Li had come over in his wheelchair. He didn’t mean any harm, so Beiting Huang didn’t notice his approach. The latter looked in the direction Beiting Huang had been looking at just now. “If it wasn’t for me at the door just now, would you have let that woman die?”
“Yes!” Beiting Huang replied indifferently. “Who’s that man?”
Mo Li retracted his gaze and glanced at Beiting Huang. His tone became especially unfriendly. “He’s Cao Tai, my teacher’s son. Why do you care so much? Hurry up and register. Don’t you want to take the exam?”
Beiting Huang rubbed her nose. She really didn’t expect Mo Li to be a bad-tempered person. “I couldn’t find the registration location, right? I asked a few people, but they didn’t tell me!”
