Chapter 308: Grandstanding (1)
The reason why such unspoken rules appeared was actually because of the unique rule system of the Dragon Flame Grotto.
If the master they took in was too low, for example, a low-grade top-grade or low-grade top-grade alchemist would take an alchemist below the middle-grade top-grade as their master. It would not take long for them to become an alchemist master.
At that time, they would have to give ten percent of the profits to their master. These new Alchemy Masters would naturally feel uncomfortable.
If his master was too high…These low-level Alchemists and Alchemist Grandmasters were naturally eager to do so, but those high-level Alchemists looked down on them.
After all, according to the rules of the Dragon Flame Grotto, every high-level alchemist could only recruit a limited number of low-level alchemists. This was to prevent a large number of low-level alchemists from swarming to a high-level alchemist as a disciple. In this way, other alchemists would not be able to take in disciples.
They couldn’t possibly starve to death. The Dragon Flame Grotto didn’t advocate such rules.
After tens of thousands of years of evolution, this law that belonged to the Dragon Flame Grotto was formed.
Therefore, the ten Alchemist disciples that Zhu Wanhao could recruit at this moment were already at the limit of low-grade middle-grade, especially those that were close to low-grade high-grade.
Of course, if Zhu Wuwan cultivated official alchemists from among the apprentice alchemists, these official alchemists would not be counted among the ten alchemist disciples. Unless Zhu Wuwan directly recruited disciples from the original official alchemists of the Dragon Flame Grotto, they would not be counted among the ten.
The rules were a little complicated, but they had their own reasons.
The first person who wanted to join him was He Sheng, who controlled a C-grade Alchemy Grotto. Moreover, he was only half a step away from entering the ranks of low-grade high-grade alchemists. Zhu Wuwan was also a little surprised.
After all, this was a C-grade Alchemy Grotto that could earn close to 10,000 low-grade Spiritual Stones a month!
Even some intermediate high-grade and intermediate top-grade alchemy masters would be interested, let alone Zhu Wuyang.
Zhu Wuwan helped He Sheng up.”Since you want to be my disciple, then let me see your alchemy skills first.”
“This…” “Alright!” He Sheng nodded.
Even though Zhu Wuan had taken advantage of He Sheng by becoming Zhu Wuan’s disciple, it didn’t mean that there was no test. Moreover, Zhu Wuan didn’t do this just for the sake of the test.
Although He Sheng was a little surprised, he actually felt that Zhu Wuyang should gladly accept his offer. There wouldn’t be any test. Could it be that Zhu Wuyang was complaining that he was too old?
However, even if he was about to die, Zhu Wuyang would not be able to earn much profit for many years. However, after he died, he could still use the empty spots to recruit other alchemists.
He Sheng frowned slightly. He followed Zhu Wuyang’s instructions and began to refine a low-grade middle-grade spirit pill that he was best at.
Zhu Wuwan watched from the side and watched from the beginning to the end. During this period, He Sheng failed five times and delayed for several hours before the refinement was considered successful.
“Grandmaster Zhu, please correct me!” He Sheng handed the spirit pill to Zhu Wuyang.
Zhu Wuan held it in her hand and examined it carefully for a moment. She then threw the spirit pill to He Sheng.” From now on, you will be my official disciple, and also my eldest disciple in alchemy. ”
” However, as my eldest disciple in alchemy, your alchemy skills are still a little lacking. You have to break through to the ranks of low-grade high-level alchemists in three days, and enter the ranks of low-grade top-grade alchemists in three years! ”
“Ah…” He Sheng’s mouth was wide open as he looked at Zhu Wuwan in disbelief, not understanding what he meant.
“What? You don’t believe that I have the ability?” Zhu Wuwan looked at him and smiled.
“Master, please accept my bow!”
He Sheng was enlightened. He knelt respectfully in front of Zhu Wuyang and kowtowed devoutly to him. His heart, which had been dead for decades, began to beat violently. He felt an unprecedented vitality and vitality reappear in his body.
Zhu Wanhao nodded in satisfaction. ” Let’s go. Come with me to get to know your junior brothers first. Then, come back and cultivate in seclusion. I’ll help you break through to the ranks of low-level high-level alchemists in three days. ”
“Yes, Master!” He Sheng quickly got up and followed behind her.
After that, Zhu Wanhao introduced He Sheng to all the in-name disciples. He also took in a few in-name disciples who had just become official alchemists as official disciples. He also instructed Peng Yingzhi to buy some medicinal herbs for him.
Seeing that even a low-level middle-level spirit alchemist had taken the initiative to bow down to Zhu Wuwan, he was basically the highest level One Cave’s alchemist that Zhu Wuwan could recruit. Many in-name disciples were also extremely surprised. They did not expect that their master, who no one cared about, would actually be recognized by One Cave’s alchemist so quickly.
After settling these matters, Zhu Wuwan brought He Sheng back to Twin Cave A, No. 96. At the same time, some of the talkative alchemy apprentices began to spread the shocking news they had just received.
That was, the newly promoted Twin Caves Alchemist, Zhu Wuwan, was going to train a low-level middle-level alchemist to become a low-level high-level alchemist in three days. This low-level middle-level alchemist was also the first official disciple to join Zhu Wuwan, and he was the eldest senior brother of all the disciples.
As soon as the news spread out, the surrounding thousands of Alchemy Grotto were in a commotion. Many low-level Alchemists who had not yet taken on a master came here to confirm the authenticity of this matter.
Even some of the Twin Caves Alchemy Masters who were envious of Zhu Wuyan had come.
” I know Apothecary He Sheng. He’s a veteran C-grade apothecary of the First Cave. He’s been stuck at the rank of a low-tier mid-tier apothecary for more than a hundred years and has been unable to advance for a long time. He’s nearing the end of his life, and there’s basically no possibility of him advancing. ”
“He’s already on the verge of death. His body and spiritual sense are both declining. He didn’t even break through when he was at the peak when he was young, let alone now. Master Zhu, are you bragging?”
“If even He Sheng can make a breakthrough, then there’s no need to talk about us. If Grandmaster Zhu can help that old fellow He Sheng make a breakthrough to become a Low-Rank Top-Rank Alchemist, we’ll immediately become his disciples and make him one of the masters of our cave.”
“Don’t joke around. How can it be so easy for a low-level middle-level spirit pill master to break through to the ranks of low-level high-level spirit pill masters? It may seem like there is only a small difference of a small realm, but in fact, the difficulty is not much different from advancing from an apothecary apprentice to an official apothecary. In fact, it might even be more difficult. How can it be so easy to break through?”
“Master Zhu is boasting too much. He is obviously trying to please the public. If he can’t help He Sheng break through to the rank of a Low-Grade Top-Rank Alchemist this time, I want to see how he can continue to occupy the Double-Cave-A-Grade Alchemy Grotto. This old man hates people with connections the most. They bully and suppress honest people like us just because they have a little background.”
