8493 Chapter 8492-
Now that she heard that Lin Yi could replace her-the chances were small, but there was still a sliver of hope. She started to relax.
Even if Lin Yi became a Grand Elder and was still stronger than President Liu, he still wouldn’t be as strong as Ouyang kuantian!
Lin Yi’s position in the alchemy Association was a part-time one. His main job was still in the school, and he was still in the school most of the time.
So, the alchemy Association would definitely give up their power. Even if President Liu had to report something big to Lin Yi, it would be better than now.
In order to give Lin Yi some advantages, President Liu suddenly opened his mouth,”Grand Elder, according to the rules, in order to start the Grandmaster apothecary examination, at least two people are required to participate!”
“Although Dean Sima’s situation is special this time, this rule can not be broken. Should we go and find another person who is participating in the assessment to come together?”
In such a hurry, how could an Alchemist of sufficient standard participate in the alchemy Grandmaster examination? It wasn’t like they were cabbages on the side of the road that one could casually pick up.
He didn’t know how long it would take to find the right person.
This way, Lin Yi would have enough time to prepare, and his success rate would be higher!
Naturally, Ouyang cuantian understood this as well. Why would he prepare anything for Lin Yi?
Instantly, he glared at guild leader Liu in displeasure. Clearly, he was blaming guild leader Liu for being a busybody.
The assessment this time was a special case, so it was not a problem for it to be a little special!
Why did he have to bring it up?
If he didn’t say it, he could just muddle through, but if he said it and didn’t do it, that was wrong!
On the other hand, Yan Su was quite happy to hear that. She felt that this was good. She could use this time to persuade Lin Yi and make him change his mind!
“Ouyang cuantian, since this is also a rule, we can’t break it. When you find a suitable person, you can take the assessment with Dean Sima. We’ll go back first today!”
Yan Su struck while the iron was hot and was about to leave with Lin Yi.
Ouyang cuantian was anxious. How could he agree to this!
It wasn’t easy for him to set up a trap for Lin Yi, and he was just waiting for him to jump in-what was this old Yan doing pulling him away?
What if Lin Yi changed his mind and chose the bronze Grandmaster test instead? wouldn’t that be a waste of effort?
“Don’t be impatient, director Yan. I’ve already considered this matter. Coincidentally, I happen to have a suitable candidate!”
When Ouyang cuantian said that he had already considered it, he was obviously bragging.
He was quick-witted and suddenly had a flash of inspiration. He thought of such a person: “Principal Yan also knows this person. He’s also a young talent, and he’s also the principal of Tianxia College’s bi an array Dao branch, Shi wangcai!”
Yan Su was slightly stunned after hearing this,”President Shi chengcai?” He’s a genius in the Dao of formations, and also a rare formation Grandmaster, but what does he have to do with alchemy?”
“It seems that director Yan doesn’t know much about the geniuses under his command. You actually don’t know that director Shi also has a deep knowledge of alchemy?”
Ouyang cuantian’s old face scrunched up as he chuckled and sarcastically mocked Yan Su, “That’s true. Dean Shi’s brilliance in array Dao is too dazzling, so it overshadowed his excellence in other aspects!”
“Actually, he’s not really interested in alchemy. He just wants to get the title of Grandmaster and give his family an explanation.”
“Dean Shi is naturally aware that there aren’t many alchemists who can take the alchemy Grandmaster examination. They either have succeeded or have failed and have to wait two years! Even Dean Sima has to abide by the rule of at least two people in a group assessment, so this Lord definitely can’t make an exception for Dean Shi! That’s why he hasn’t come to take part in the assessment all this time!”
Yan Su was stunned. Could this be true? He had never heard of it before!
As if he could see Yan SU’s confusion, Ouyang cuantian explained,””It’s normal that you don’t know, because Shi longcai has never taken the apprentice or Alchemist test before! After all, he has long become an array Grandmaster. If he were to take the apprentice apothecary examination, he would not be able to bring himself to do so. ”
“That’s why Dean Shi told me to inform him if anyone came to participate in the Grandmaster Alchemist examination.”
After he finished speaking, Ouyang cuantian looked at Yan Su with a look of devotion to the public.
What he meant was, I’m not deliberately targeting Dean Sima. It’s the same if Dean Shi comes, and he has to follow the rules.
However, guild leader Liu was displeased when he heard this. He had finally found a way to stall for time, but it was useless now? Could he still be saved?
Hence, guild leader Liu gave it a try.””Grand Elder, principal Shi Shucai is an array Grandmaster, after all. Wouldn’t it be inappropriate if he were to pass the test? It’s not good for our alchemy Association if this gets out! The array formation Association’s Vice President casually obtained the alchemy Association’s Grandmaster title, making us alchemy grandmasters seem worthless!”
He even wanted to say that the alchemy Association would be suppressed by the array formation Association in the long run.
“Why do you have so many things to do? Just now, you were the one who said that you wanted two people to test. I have already found candidates for you, but you are still so picky. What do you want? You’re deliberately causing trouble, right?”
In the end, Ouyang cuantian didn’t give him a chance and directly interrupted him,””Don’t talk nonsense, hurry up and invite Shi longcai over. Remember, go personally and tell him that it’s not easy for someone to come to take the alchemy Grandmaster test. If he’s interested, he can come immediately! If we miss this opportunity, we don’t know when we’ll get another one!”
Guild leader Liu couldn’t help but smile bitterly. Under Ouyang kuantian’s pressure, he had no way to resist at all. He could only bow respectfully and acknowledge the order before personally making a trip to the Tianxia Academy.
He was the president, after all, and now he was just an errand boy-it would be weird if he didn’t feel angry. He hoped that Lin Yi could pass the test and knock that old bastard down!
Once Lin Yi took over, President Liu felt that the authority of the Association would return to his hands.
Lin Yi would become a true Grand Elder, with a noble status, but he wouldn’t be involved in the Association’s Affairs often!
A short while later, Shi longcai arrived with guild leader Liu. He really came at the invitation without any hesitation. Yan SU’s face darkened and his mood soured.
This kid, why did he really come to join in the fun?
“Dean Shi, why did you really come to participate in the alchemy Grandmaster examination? I’ve never heard you mention it before!”
Yan Su sighed, thinking that if Shi shengcai had only come with the mentality of playing around, then she should quickly persuade him to leave.
“Director Yan!”
In the end, Shi longcai gracefully cupped his hands. His white robe fluttered as he smiled and said, “I’m indeed not very interested in alchemy. However, when I was young, I learned about alchemy as well while studying array Dao. I treated it as a form of entertainment in my free time.”
“After that, I kept this habit. Although it was just playing during my free time, it seemed that his standard was not bad. I thought that if there was an opportunity, I would test him to see what kind of standard he was at. It could also be considered as an explanation to the family.”
