Chapter 430: 430 Third-Level Assessment (Part 1)

430 Third-Level Assessment (Part 1)

Si Yuming wanted to know if Yuchi hailed from some aristocratic or major alchemist family. However, when he saw him avidly reading, completely immersed, she hesitated, and chose not to disturb him in the end.

‘Forget it. It’s inappropriate to disturb his studies now. I’ll wait until the Alchemist Guild closes at 6.00pm and then approach him.”

Si Yuming had already made her decision, and sat in the distance to observe Yuchi, as he flipped through the third-level study materials page-by-page, which comprised ten books in total.

After some careful observation, she was completely sure that Yuchi was someone with a solid foundation. Otherwise, he would not be able to read with such speed.

Yuchi went through one book after another at a rapid pace. By the time he finished reading all ten books, it was only 3.00pm. It had only been a few hours since Yuchi had gotten his hands on the books.

Once he was done, he returned them to the counter. Seeing this, Si Yuming was a little curious. Was he preparing to leave? Then again, it made sense.

Anyone would feel tired after reading that much.

This was a good time to ask him questions.

Just as Si Yuming was about to walk over to Yuchi, Yuchi went over to look for one of the staff members.

The staff member’s expression changed as Yuchi said something to him, but in the end the other party nodded vigorously.

Following that, he brought Yuchi to the back of the guild.

Si Yuming was puzzled. Was Yuchi confounded by some of the topics he had read and asked the staff about it?

That made sense. After all, that person was also a high-level alchemist.

Thinking this, she followed them. What she discovered shocked her.

The man was not there to ask questions, but to prepare to take the assessment. In other words, he was going to try and complete both the second-level and third-level assessments on the same day.

Si Yuming stood rooted to the ground. It was as if a spell had been cast on her, and she could not move at all.

She looked at the young man in front of her with a dumbfounded expression before turning to look at the other crazed alchemists who had just entered the assessment in a single file. It felt like a dream!

If she had not seen and heard it herself, she would have never imagined it. A person was actually taking two assessments on the same day. This kind of thing was simply something only a monster could do.

The person in charge was already trembling as he asked for confirmation from Yuchi, “Are you really going to take the third-level alchemist assessment today? You only have two chances to take the assessment. If you fail both times, you’ll have to pay for the future assessments.”

The other alchemists also stared at Yuchi, eagerly awaiting his answer. It felt like a scene from a fantasy.

There was actually a person who could complete the second-level and third-level assessments in one day?

This was impossible!

The amount of knowledge covered by the third-level assessment exceeded that of the second-level assessment by at least threefold. The assessment was also much more difficult.

Under normal circumstances, second-level alchemists would study for at least 50 years before attempting the third-level assessment.

This was the main reason why these high-level alchemists were so old.

On the other hand, Yuchi’s reply was still as calm as before, as he said, “Yes, I am sure that I want to take the third-level assessment today.”

Everyone was stunned, and a clamor broke out. Even Si Yuming was caught up in the atmosphere of excitement.

She felt her cheeks burning, and her heart was beating faster. It felt so unreal!

She trembled as she thought, ‘He won’t be able to pass, right? Right?’
