“Haha,e on in! I thought it might take a while before you’ll drop by since you’re new and all. It


    hasn’t even been a few days and you’re here already!” Theodore chuckled and gestured for Severin to


    enter. “I should rify something though. Our alchemists are only allowed to keep thirty percent of all


    pills they’ve crafted for personal use. The rest will have to be given to the sect. I’m sure you have no


    objections to that, right?”


    Severin smiled and replied, “Of course not. That’s a very reasonable rule.”


    Theodore mentioned the standard procedure as a mere formality because there was no practical way


    to oversee the alchemists ‘crafting process and count every single pill that they made. It ultimately


    depended on the alchemists Integrity in abiding strictly by the stiptions.


    “Right this way. The fourth–grade low–rank and fourth–grade medium–rank spiritual herbs are on the


    second floor. The first floor is where most of the first, second, and third–grade materials are stored.


    Most of those whoe to collect the materials from this floor are lower–level alchemists,” Theodore


    exined the different floors to Severin while leading him to the staircase inside.


    Severin encountered some familiar faces not long after he entered. Harris and Felix greeted him with a


    respectful smile, Senior!”


    “Are you here for some third–grade low–rank materials? Severin inquired after noticing the material in


    their hands.


    Felix responded, “Yes. We’ve been meaning to thank you, by the way. We benefited a lot from watching


    you refine those pills. After returning and thoroughly digesting the knowledge from watching your


    demonstration, we decided to give a shot at crafting some third–grade low–rank pills. Imagine our


    surprise when the both of us seeded in just over a day!”


    Harris shared Felix’s enthusiasm and said, “That’s right. Felix and I are now third–grade low–rank


    alchemists. We were nning to select some more materials to cement our current abilities. We can


    only call ourselves third–grade low–rank alchemists if we can improve our sess rate.”


    For them, advancing from second–grade high–rank alchemists to third–grade low–rank alchemists


    represented significant progress. Third–grade low–rank pills had some noticeable effects on a warrior


    emperor’s attainment, so most disciples who are warrior emperors can use third–grade pills in training.


    Therefore, their status as an alchemist would improve greatly.


    “Haha, congrattions! That’s good news,” Severin expressed his delight..


    “Even our master has made a lot of progress. He’s confident that he can be a fourth–grade low–


    rank alchemist in due time,” Felix said excitedly.


    “Does that mean Elder Igor is on the verge of a breakthrough? That’s excellent news! Having another


    fourth–grade alchemist in our sect will be very beneficial to the sect’s development as a whole! Fourth–


    grade pills are useful for our saint–level disciples.”


    Theodore was just as enthusiastic after hearing the news. There had been lots of positive news within


    the sect as ofte, and every disciple was eagerly anticipating the bright future that the sect held for


    them.


    Harris smiled and added further, “It’s because you allowed us to watch your demonstration of alchemy


    that we were able to make progress. We consider it an immense privilege to have had the opportunity


    to witness your alchemical expertise.”

    “That sounds like a bit of an exaggeration, don’t you think?” Theodore quipped.
