However, his value had always gone unnoticed.
Throughout his life, he visited the Alchemy Pavilion dozens of times, attempting to gain the opportunity for an assessment to become a formal alchemist, but he was always rejected.
Even until the time of his death, he had never become a true alchemist, passing away with regrets.
Years after his passing, an elder from the Alchemy Tower unexpectedly obtained a pill that was once refined by Hua Luoxuan, and was instantly astonished.
He hurried from the Alchemy Tower to Hua Luoxuan's residence, trying to find the person who refined this pill, only to learn that Hua Luoxuan had already deceased.
In his regret, Hua Luoxuan's wife and children handed over the notes in which he recorded his life’s work in alchemy to this elder from the Alchemy Tower.
Upon seeing the content, the elder was utterly shocked. The refining methods employed by Hua Luoxuan were completely different from any sect on the continent at that time; he had actually created an unprecedented school of alchemy.
If Hua Luoxuan could have joined the Alchemy Tower, he would undoubtedly have founded a new and unparalleled school of alchemy and become a renowned top-tier alchemist across the continent.
It's just a pity that such a talented alchemist ended up not receiving formal education; not to mention becoming an alchemist, he was never even given the opportunity to participate in the alchemist assessment.
Ultimately, he passed away with regrets.
The elder from the Alchemy Tower, moved by this, reported the matter to the tower, which caused a significant stir throughout the Alchemy Tower.
In the end, in the year 1168 of the Martial God Era, the Alchemy Tower revised the rules for the alchemist assessment; there would be no entry barriers, and anyone aspiring to become an alchemist could participate in the assessment as long as they could afford the registration fee.
However, this matter, this clause, only circulated among alchemists. Chen Mu never expected that a young boy like Qin Chen would also know about this rule.
If Qin Chen reported this matter to the Alchemy Tower, and the tower confirmed that he had rejected someone’s assessment application, he would definitely face severe penalties, even to the extent of having his qualification as a first-grade alchemist revoked.
“Register him.”
Thinking that he was being threatened by a boy only fifteen or sixteen years old, Chen Mu felt an overwhelming dissatisfaction in his heart. He snorted coldly and turned to enter the room.
“This...”
Manager Luo was taken aback when he saw that Chen Mu, the alchemist, actually agreed to Qin Chen's request.
“Don’t you hurry up and handle the paperwork?” Qin Chen said.
“Hmph.”
Though Manager Luo felt displeased, he reluctantly completed the paperwork for Qin Chen and coldly handed him a note, saying, “Take this. This is your assessment voucher. You can enter through this door.”
After receiving the assessment voucher, Qin Chen stepped into the room.
“Manager Luo, how could Alchemist Chen agree to this kid's registration? This doesn’t make sense!” Huang Yuling said, puzzled.
She was all too clear about Alchemist Chen's temperament; he was definitely someone who would fly into a rage over a minor disagreement. It was unbelievable that he would agree to this boy's assessment request.
When things go against the norm, there must be something strange.
“How would I know? But this kid offended Alchemist Chen and still wants to participate in the assessment; he really doesn’t know the heights of heaven and depths of the earth. Alchemist Chen is one of the examiners for this alchemist assessment; as long as he says no, even if that kid gets the chance to take the assessment, it won't matter.”
Manager Luo sneered, “Just wait and see; it won’t be long before that kid gets kicked out in disgrace.”
Assessment Room.
Qin Chen walked in and found himself in a magnificent pill refining hall. The entire hall was filled with various alchemical tools and pill furnaces.
