Chapter 153: 10) The Zhao Family!

"Now can you tell me at which level you are?" She asked curiously, her eyes shining like a star.

"Nothing much... I am at master level," Bai Lung responded keeping his face straight.

"M-Master level?" Zhao Ling was shocked, seeing his age one could hardly believe he was a Master level alchemist.

Not just Zhao Ling, even Saintess who knew many things including his devil origin couldn't help but widen her eyes at his reveal.

A master-level alchemist at such a young age? Both women find it hard to believe.

The youngest master level alchemist on East Mountains ever recorded was of age 70, who was highly gifted and could sense Pill's intent.

It's totally reasonable for both women to find it hard to believe since the records say the youngest master registered was age 70.

Are talent of East Mountains, trash in front of the capital? Of course no, the man was even born with pill-sensing capability, once in a thousand years.

Looking at Zhao Ling's and Saintess's reactions, Bai Lung could easily tell that they have a hard time believing it.

He felt like he had become one 'That friend' that always brag big and thick.

However, he quickly recalls it's a novel world, a world where the protagonist is meant to shine so, he concludes that the youngest master-level alchemist recorded must be some talented freak. This also makes sense since all the knowledge was planted by the system in his consciousness.

If he himself had gone on knowledge gathering journey it might have taken hundreds of years.

"Hmp! Is the young master bragging big? You know you can tell the truth... I am at just a beginner level, however, I possess profound consciousness and am proficient in array making and alchemy," Zhao Ling uttered.

"Oh! Miss Zhao doesn't trust my words? It feels like my heart has been stabbed but it's reasonable for you to not believe me?" Bai Lung hurriedly responded.

"N-No... Um! I am just confused about how are you a master-level alchemist when the youngest to get the master title was at age 70... Maybe Young Lord hasn't taken the alchemy test, how about going to the alchemy contest this week, I heard many famous grand-master level alchemists are judges here, I believe Young Lord can show his skill and create a history," Zhao Ling hurriedly added.

Zhao Bai Lung had no cheap intention of making history and putting his name for ages to learn, however knowing that the grandmasters and influential people would be there, Bai Lung strongly believed a protagonist would come to the scene.

It was an event for the protagonist, thus, it's only reasonable for a person like him to make an appearance.

"Ooh? An alchemy test? I wonder if Young Miss Zhao is going there? If you are them I will surely join you," Bai Lung lets out with a fair tone.

There are around 300 billion people in the Qin Empire.

"Woahhh!!!, you have a point there Young Lord Bai! Just think about the power and authority they would wield. Other factions would be lining up to get a piece of them, just to have a chance to work with such a powerful alchemist...

But there are only a few alchemists of such level that are countable in fingers and I heard they possess a lot of pride and don't see anyone with respect," Zhao Ling exclaims, her awe growing exponentially.

That's true! Forget about the Bai family even the emperor himself has to be polite and respectful in front of Saint-level alchemists.

However, that's understandable. Given the sheer power and authority that Saint-level alchemists possess, it's only natural that other factions would be eager to work with them. After all, who wouldn't want to get their hands on their incredible skills and knowledge? Not to mention divine pills?

Even the key to ascend lies in hands of alchemist for potential people because protagonist are offered helps from immortals.

However, it's true that Saint-level alchemists are rare and few in number. And, their pride and aloofness make them difficult to approach... One of the saint-level alchemists even said bring me your 100 virgin daughters only then you will get my pills.

They are the top dogs in the alchemy world, and few could ever hope to reach their level.

These dogs bark and bite.

Nevertheless, such an opportunity to meet and possibly impress a Saint-level alchemist should not be taken lightly even by Bai Lung.

It's not every day that they conduct a test for potential successors... It may be a stage for a protagonist but Bai Lung sure knows how to steal the show.

Not to mention,

Not only would it be an invaluable learning experience, but also, the chance to make a connection with such a powerful figure could open doors to unimaginable possibilities.

Influence! That's right! Having connection with such a person would give him lots of influence and control. Not to mention, he can even commit crimes and stay safe.

Well, as long as he doesn't get caught, he is always safe.

Certainly, one would think, there is also the potential to get your hands on powerful pills, treasures that are priceless and could change the course of a one's fate but such things are meaningless for Bai Lung who's spirit root hasn't been fully awakened it.

Aside from that, all other pills are easily available to Bai Lung.

He himself possesses quite rare pills in his inventory.

'Hmm! If one has the right connections and resources, it wouldn't be surprisoneif they could get their hands on some of the Saint-level alchemist's creations... I have to watch after this protagonist with a keen eye,' Bai Lung talked to himself sensing a powerful enemy ahead of his path.
