"Of course, but...you don't have to be here, right?"
Ye Yuan didn't want to be treated like a monkey watching a show.
Shopkeeper Tong nodded and took Ye Yuan into the side room.
"Young man, is this okay?"
Ye Yuan nodded slightly, and a majestic soul power spread out.
Feeling Ye Yuan's soul power, Shopkeeper Tong couldn't help but change his expression.
"Intermediate Great Alchemist!" Shopkeeper Tong said in shock.
Breaking through the second level of crystal condensation, Ye Yuan's soul power has crossed the threshold of a junior great alchemist and became an intermediate great alchemist!
"Shopkeeper Tong, I wonder if I am qualified to apply for the position of guest minister?" Ye Yuan said with a smile.
Only then did Shopkeeper Tong come to his senses and said, "Of course! Even if you fail to pass the test, I will inform the head of the family and let you stay!"
Just kidding, wouldn't it be a pity if we didn't win over such talents as the sixteen-year-old intermediate great alchemist?
As an alchemist, the most difficult thing is actually the realm of the soul! You can make up for your shortcomings through hard work in other aspects, but the breakthrough in the realm of the soul varies from person to person.
The reason why no one in the divine realm is able to refine the divine elixir is because there is no alchemist whose divine soul realm can break through the shackles!
And for such a genius, if Ye Yuan switches to the Tong family, wouldn't he have an extremely terrifying opponent in the future?
"Haha, that's good."
Ye Yuan stayed here for nothing just to get close to the two slaves, otherwise he would have walked away long ago.
"Don't you know the little brother's name?" Shopkeeper Tong's attitude made a 180-degree turn at this time, and he was already commensurate with brother Ye Yuan.
"Ji Qing!" Ye Yuan gave his pseudonym.
"It turns out to be little brother Ji. You came just in time. Miss Ruyan is conducting an assessment for the alchemist who corresponds to Zheng Keqing! Shall we go up now?" Shopkeeper Tong asked Ye Yuan for his opinion.
However, Ye Yuan did not leave immediately, but asked curiously: "Shopkeeper Tong, please forgive me for saying more, but what is the purpose of the Xiao family's invitation to be a guest? With a family as big as Sihai Tower, there should be no shortage of alchemists, right?"
Shopkeeper Tong sighed when he heard this and said: "To be honest with you, little brother Ji, the Xiao family does not lack alchemists, but they lack powerful alchemists!"
"Oh? Please ask shopkeeper Tong to clear up the confusion." Ye Yuan asked.
"Actually, I have no choice but to apply for the guest title this time! In this royal city, the biggest elixir business is our Xiao family and the Tong family. Because of this, our two families are almost a feud! In order to compete for the elixir market, the two families
There was a big fight between the two families, and dozens of people were killed in the sea transformation realm alone. Later, Lord Feng Huang sent someone to send a message to Xiao and Tong families to stop, and the fighting stopped."
"What does this have to do with you looking for a guest?" Ye Yuan asked with a puzzled look.
"Later, through the mediation of His Majesty the Feng Emperor, our two families established a rule. Every ten years, the younger generations of the two families will hold an elixir fighting competition to determine the share of the two families in the elixir market. And this year happens to be the first
Ten years!" Shopkeeper Tong said.
Ye Yuan looked strange and said: "You are looking for the guest just to participate in this Dan Fighting Conference? Can't the younger generation of the Xiao family do it?"
Shopkeeper Tong's expression changed and he said angrily: "What do you mean you can't do it! The eldest young master Xiao Rufeng and the second young lady Xiao Ruyan are both alchemy wizards, especially Miss Ruyan, who has already been promoted to the realm of senior alchemist at the age of twenty.
, do you dare to say no?"
Ye Yuan curled his lips, but didn't take it seriously.
What is there to be proud of as a twenty-year-old great alchemist?
Seeing Ye Yuan's expression, shopkeeper Tong couldn't help but be stunned, and couldn't help but have the urge to smack his mouth.
This young man is only sixteen years old, and he will probably already be a senior alchemist by the time he is twenty. It seems that his young lady has nothing to show off, right?
Shopkeeper Tong coughed twice to resolve the awkward situation, and then said: "Actually, the eldest young master has a physical problem and is unable to participate in this Dan Dan Tournament. Miss Ruyan alone cannot defeat the Tong family."
Ye Yuan nodded and said, "That's right. Is it legal for me to participate? After all, I'm not from the Xiao family."
Shopkeeper Tong said: "As long as you join the Xiao family, it will be in compliance with the rules. Uh..."
Shopkeeper Tong was halfway through talking when he suddenly realized something was wrong.
What does it mean for you to participate in compliance with the rules? Who said you are going to participate? This kid's self-confidence is a little too inflated, right?
You haven't passed this test yet, and you're going to fight on behalf of the Xiao family?
You must know that among the alchemists who applied this time, there are many high-level alchemists. Ye Yuan has only just entered the intermediate level, so it may not be easy to pass.
Shopkeeper Tong chose Ye Yuan because of his potential, not his strength.
Ye Yuan laughed and said: "Since it complies with the rules, let's go for the assessment."
Shopkeeper Tong looked depressed, this guy really thought of himself as a member of the Xiao family.
…
When shopkeeper Tong came out of the wing with Ye Yuan and Ye Yuan was invited upstairs, the waiter's eyes widened.
Is it possible that this kid is really an alchemist?
The guy had a hunch that he had made a big deal and offended the wrong people.
"Don't see me, don't see me..." the man said silently in his heart.
However, he was afraid of something, so Ye Yuan suddenly turned his head and smiled at him, then Shi Shiran went up.
The man's legs weakened and he almost fell to his knees.
"It's over, it's really over now." The man said to himself with a sad face.
…
Shopkeeper Tong took Ye Yuan straight to the third floor and came to a hall.
There were already several people in the hall, and several medicine cauldrons were placed.
There is a partition at the far end, which is blocked by several layers of gauze, but you can vaguely see a graceful figure inside.
Shopkeeper Tong asked Ye Yuan to wait and walked towards the partition.
Ye Yuan took a long time to look at the hall and the alchemists.
These people are all high-level alchemists, and it seems that he is the only one who is an intermediate great alchemist.
Well, of course, in the eyes of these people, I am probably not even an alchemist.
In addition to Ye Yuan, there were four alchemists. They obviously also saw Ye Yuan. When they saw the badge on Ye Yuan's chest, they couldn't help but look with disdain on their faces.
"Are all the eldest brothers here to apply for the Xiao family's guest position?" Ye Yuan was very familiar with him, so he went up and said with a smile.
"So what? You're not the same as us, are you?" One of the alchemists said with disdain.
"Ah? Haha, you can see all this, brother has great eyesight!"
The man said with disdain: "You are a junior alchemist, are you here to make fun of me? This place is not suitable for you, so get out of here quickly, lest you make Miss Ruyan unhappy!"
"You are a little guy who is overestimating his abilities. He dares to show off his strength and embarrass himself. I think you should go home and nurse!" Another person said.
"If you don't have the strength of a senior great alchemist, don't come out and embarrass yourself! We are all selected through layers of screening. Who do you think you are!"
Ye Yuan laughed and said, "How come you have finished everything I want to say?"
