I Just Want To Slack off In Cultivation - Chapter 430
Chapter 430: Registration for the county examination
Translator: 549690339
When Shi Wanli heard this, he was not surprised. After all, although Master Wang Gao’s alchemy skills were already amazing in the eyes of ordinary people, he himself was always striving for perfection.
He had refined five batches of top grade transformation pills last night, and he was still not satisfied.
Now that he had just arrived in the county, it was only natural for him to think about studying alchemy.
Perhaps it was because of this perfectness that she was able to achieve so much at such a young age.
As he thought about it, Shi Wanli pondered for a while and said, ” “Grandmaster, it’s like this. Pill recipes, spell techniques, and divine abilities are all important items of the country. Since Chao Phraya city is the capital of a County, it does have some channels.”
“Generally speaking, there are three places where you can buy pill recipes.”
“The first one is the civilian’s boat, which is operated by the government. The Anmin is under the direct jurisdiction of the Ministry of Revenue, and we sell all the needs of the people.”
&Quot; although the price is slightly more expensive than ordinary shops, it is most reliable with the endorsement of our Ministry of Revenue. &Quot;
“However, the pill recipes in the shop are all for Qi refining stage pills. I’m afraid that their value is limited to a master.”
&Quot; the second is to become a master teacher in any Academy in the Empire. &Quot;
&Quot; with your strength, you can pass the Master Teacher assessment. Even the Master Teacher assessment of the Jade Qilin Academy is not a problem! &Quot;
&Quot; it’s just that other than the alchemy examination, I will need to investigate my background. I’m afraid that even if you apply immediately, you won’t be able to get it done before the county examination begins. &Quot;
“The last channel is the trade fair between alchemists.”
&Quot; this trade fair only allows alchemists who have obtained the qualifications of the dynasty’s alchemists to enter. Not only are there transactions of pill recipes, but there are also exchanges of various pills, materials, information, and so on. &Quot;
&Quot; however, this trade fair is held in private and not organized by the dynasty. Therefore, we can’t guarantee the authenticity of the items inside. We can only rely on our own judgment. &Quot;
After hearing this, PEI Ling nodded slightly.
An min. This shop sounded similar to the Zhong gang sect’s hundred Treasure Tower. With his wealth, the price was not a problem. However, as Shi Wanli had said, Qi cultivation stage elixir recipes were of no use to him.
It was impossible for the questions to be so simple in the county examination.
As for the Academy’s master Teacher …
His purpose in coming to the glazed tile Empire was to increase his knowledge and temper his state of mind. He thought he was preparing for a first-grade golden core, so why did he want to be a master?
Not to mention the risk of background checks, as a master, he must not only know how to refine pills, but also explain many problems in alchemy to the students.
Although his alchemy skills were extremely high, he was not good with words …
The only remaining option was the trade fair between alchemists.
The authenticity of the pill formula was not a big problem to PEI Ling. Anyway, as long as it was true, the system would definitely give a prompt that it had automatically been collected. If it was fake, there would be no reaction.
“May I ask when and where this alchemy master trade fair will be held?”
“Great master, you’ve come at the right time,” Shi Wanli was a member of Chan Lou, so he was naturally very familiar with such matters. After some calculations, he said, ” in three days, there will be a trade fair in Ge Garden, south of the city. I will escort you there. &Quot;
Hearing this, PEI Ling nodded slightly. He immediately thought that since there was a way to buy pill formulas in the county city, then could he buy Orthodox techniques and divine abilities as well?
If that was the case, it would be extremely convenient for him.
“Then, where do you sell spells and divine abilities?” he asked.
“Master, there are also spells in the peaceful people.” When Shi Wanli heard this, he shook his head slightly and said, ” but they are all the most basic kind. After learning them, at most, it will be easier to do spraying and cleaning. They are not of much use. &Quot;
“After ordinary rogue cultivators learn it, they can make a living.”
“As a master, there’s no need to waste time.”
&Quot; the rewards for the county examination, on the other hand, are much better than those low-level spells. &Quot;
“As for divine abilities, there’s no place in the city that sells them.”
“Just like the pill recipes for Qi cultivation stage and above, there are only three ways to obtain them: The first was the reward from the pill debate ceremony, the second was to become a teacher of a County Academy or above, and if one had made a great contribution to the Academy, they could enter the county storehouse to choose one after the application of the mountain elder. The third is to pass the assessment of the celestial science and enter the court as an official.”
Upon hearing this, PEI Ling nodded to himself and understood. It seemed that although the glazed tile Empire was on the right path, they also valued the truly powerful spells, magical powers, pill recipes, and so on. They controlled them strictly and were not willing to give them to others easily.
However, this was normal.
Putting aside the fact that outsiders would not stay in the Empire to serve them after learning them easily, if the conditions to cultivate the powerful cultivation techniques, spells, and divine abilities of the Empire were too simple, the four great fiend sects would have sent fiendish cultivators here to learn them all.
With such a huge increase in the strength of the demonic sect, what would the glaze avarice dynasty use to fight against the demonic sect?
At the thought of this, PEI Ling was slightly startled. It seemed that it was the easiest to pass the county examination and obtain the techniques and abilities of the glazed tile Empire.
As the two of them spoke, the small boat slowly stopped in front of a long stone staircase.
Above the long steps was a spacious square.
Behind the square was a towering and huge mansion with a black plaque painted in gold. The words ” hundred works banner ” were written in bold and flamboyant calligraphy.
It was the prefecture capital hundred works Gu.
The difference between this city and Chao city was that in front of the hundred workers ‘Pagoda in Chao Phraya city, there were few people and only a few carriages.
Considering that most of the alchemists were still participating in the pre-selection, and only fifth-grade alchemists could directly come to the county city to register, it was normal for this place to be idle.
However, even though there were very few people, the prefecture capital’s hundred workers banner still gave off a sense of security.
Even though the guards at the entrance allowed Shi Wanli to accompany PEI Ling in because there was almost no one going in and out, after they entered, they saw a guard every three steps and a Sentry every five steps. There was even a team of high-level cultivators patrolling from time to time. It was as if they were facing a great enemy.
A moment later, Shi Wanli brought PEI Ling through the courtyard and into a study.
The study was spacious and bright, but there were few furnishings.
Other than a table, two chairs, and a wall full of bookshelves, there was nothing else.
Shi Wanli could only stand at the side.
A black-robed middle-aged cultivator was in charge of receiving the pill refiners who had arrived early to prepare for the county examination.
This person had a square face, his long hair was tied behind his head, and even his beard was neatly trimmed. The robe he wore was also well pressed. Even the many documents and the Four Treasures of the Study on the table in front of him were arranged in an orderly manner, making him look extremely capable and professional.
He examined PEI Ling’s fifth ranked Alchemist jade pendant with a serious expression and repeatedly asked for PEI Ling’s name, age, and background. He then took out a seal from his storage bag and said calmly,”Alchemist, according to the laws of the empire, I need to check your cultivation level and bone age.”
Without waiting for PEI Ling’s reply, the seal had already emitted a wave that enveloped his entire body.
After a moment, the seal did not respond.
The black-robed middle-aged cultivator then nodded slightly and said, ” &Quot; there’s no problem with your cultivation and bone age. However, please follow me to the alchemy room and refine a furnace of medicinal pills in front of me to confirm your identity as a fifth-grade Alchemist. &Quot;
“Refine what medicinal pill?” PEI Ling asked with a frown.
“Any medicinal pill is fine.” The black-robed middle-aged cultivator said, ” as long as the pill is of Supreme-grade, it will be fine. &Quot;
Shi Wanli explained in a low voice,”master, it’s like this. In the past, a fiendish cultivator sneaked into the pill discussion ceremony with the intention of causing trouble.” Therefore, all the alchemists who are here to register for the county examination need to refine another batch of pills in person to prevent imitations.”
“This is also for the safety of the alchemists.”
Hearing this, PEI Ling nodded slightly.
It was just a simple seizing, so there was no difficulty.
Therefore, the black-robed middle-aged cultivator made the arrangements and brought them to the alchemy room.
The alchemy room was located in an independent forest, surrounded by arrays and restrictions. After entering, he saw that there were already more than a dozen people inside.
Among these people, there were only three cultivators dressed in alchemy robes who looked like examiners. The others were expressionless and had cold expressions. Powerful fluctuations were emitted from their bodies, and they did not hide their wariness towards PEI Ling.
Seeing this, PEI Ling did not say much. He secretly removed the seal on a poison pill in his body and said in his heart, ” “System, I want to cultivate! With one click, she seized [ alchemy-Peiyuan pill ].”
Not long after, everyone was clearly stunned when they saw the 30 Supreme-grade essence cultivating pills that were freshly produced. However, they quickly regained their expressionless faces. The black-robed middle-aged cultivator recorded PEI Ling’s condition and took out a Jade document. He inserted a wisp of his aura and PEI Ling also inserted a true essence imprint. He then said calmly,”This is the admission ticket for the county examination, please take good care of it.”
“If it is lost or damaged, you will have to pay a fee when you apply for it.”
&Quot; and it takes time to do it. Don’t miss the county examination. &Quot;
“The pre-selection will end this month. In the next ten days, there will be various capital examinations.”
“After the capital examination is completed, it will be the county examination.”
“When the county examination begins, the certificate will be activated so that The Alchemist doesn’t forget the time,”
“When the time comes, please come to the hundred worker Gu.”
&Quot; in addition, during the pill discussion ceremony, you can use this certificate to go to the county capital and apply for a free Alchemist cave. &Quot;
PEI Ling nodded slightly and took the certificate,”Many thanks.”
“This is an internal matter.” The black-robed middle-aged cultivator cupped his hands calmly and said, ” I still have duties to attend to. I can’t accompany you any longer. Please go ahead. &Quot;
