“You are also an alchemist.”
Gu Xun looked at Qin Chen coldly, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
Although his tone remained icy, everyone could clearly sense a change in Gu Xun's demeanor.
“A third-grade alchemist certified by the Alchemy Pavilion, no fake.”
Qin Chen took out a token from his body; it was engraved with a furnace, surrounded by three silver lines, representing the identity of a third-grade alchemist.
This token was the third-grade alchemist badge that Xiao Ya had applied for Qin Chen at the Alchemy Pavilion in the Great Qi Kingdom.
“Third-grade alchemist badge!”
The customers in the Alchemy Pavilion were knowledgeable and couldn’t help but exclaim.
Qin Chen, so young, was actually a third-grade alchemist, which shocked and astonished everyone.
It is known that while a third-grade alchemist is not considered high-level, Qin Chen was still too young; many alchemy apprentices had not even become first-grade alchemists at his age.
However, Yi Chen looked at the token in Qin Chen's hand and sneered, “It's just a third-grade alchemist badge. Did you think it was some treasure?”
Qin Chen was initially recommended by Xiao Ya to participate in the Hundred Dynasties Grand Tournament at the Great Wei Dynasty's Alchemy Pavilion, and being a third-grade alchemist was completely normal.
“Indeed, it’s not a treasure, but according to the regulations of the Alchemy Pavilion headquarters, local Alchemy Pavilions provide a venue for alchemists to communicate, validate, and trade with each other. As fellow alchemists, you insult me and chase me away; it’s only natural that I give you a lesson.”
Qin Chen said coldly, then looked at Gu Xun: “Gu Xun, as the manager of the Great Wei Dynasty's Alchemy Pavilion, you have the right to maintain the order of the pavilion. This person has insulted me in front of everyone, and all present have seen it clearly. Shouldn’t you give me an explanation?”
“Explanation? What explanation do you want? I am a fourth-grade alchemist, and you are just a third-grade alchemist. It is completely justified for me to teach you a lesson and drive you away,” Yi Chen said angrily.
In his view, even though they were both alchemists, it was normal for him to teach Qin Chen a lesson.
Qin Chen's eyes narrowed slightly, and he scoffed inwardly.
Did these people think that just because they were born into better circumstances, they could be so domineering? They could kill and drive others away without a second thought.
In their eyes, no matter how strong your power or high your talent, if you came from a lower-level force, you were trash, a commoner, a waste.
For such people, Qin Chen didn’t even want to speak; he just coldly looked at Gu Xun: “Gu Xun, is this the level of your Great Wei Dynasty's Alchemy Pavilion? According to the regulations of the Alchemy Pavilion headquarters, although there are different ranks among alchemists, there is no distinction of nobility or lowliness. We are all alchemists; how can there be such a thing as justification? If you, Gu Xun, think so too, then I will certainly write to the Northern Sky Domain's Alchemy Pavilion branch, even to the headquarters of the Martial Domain's Alchemy Pavilion, to abolish the Great Wei Dynasty's Alchemy Pavilion!”
Qin Chen's voice was sharp.
These words caused everyone present to freeze for a moment; this person was so arrogant, threatening to abolish the Great Wei Dynasty's Alchemy Pavilion branch! Such big talk.
He certainly didn’t look like someone from the impoverished regions of the Five Nations.
“Haha, with you? Do you have the qualifications to write to the headquarters of the Alchemy Pavilion and the Northern Sky Domain branch?” Yi Chen sneered. Qin Chen was just a disciple from the Five Nations, a commoner from a poor place; he probably didn’t even know where the Northern Sky Domain branch was.
Qin Chen shot a cold glance at Yi Chen, completely ignoring him, and just said to Gu Xun with a sneer: “As far as I know, besides the Enforcement Hall, the Alchemy Pavilion also has an Inspection Department that specializes in checking if local Alchemy Pavilions have violated regulations. The Inspection Department can accept both real-name and anonymous complaints, directly under the jurisdiction of the Alchemy Pavilion headquarters. Anyone can file a complaint, and local Alchemy Pavilions have no authority to intercept or control them. This person does not know this, but as the manager of the pavilion, you should be well aware.”
