Is that a Wisp?

Chapter 232 Who Cares?

Krune looked at everyone and then said.

"It's because I'm a wisp, so I achieved my adult mind when I was 3 years old. Sure there is nothing to be so impressed about, right? If I count the time that I started learning alchemist, it has been over 8 years already."

Krune's words made everyone almost faint! The average level of the participants is between Four to Six Silver Stars. There are very few above that level in this Junior Competition. But the majority is already over 30 years old and had been practicing alchemy for at least 15 or more years.

But the fatal blow was still not done yet.

Yilio came forward and then commented.

"Come on, Jolk. There is no need to be modest. Did you forget that you were a Five Bronze Stars Alchemist five months ago? Your talent is a lot higher than you picture."

The surroundings once again went silent, and Krune was the one who almost passed out this time. He looked at Yilio and said.

"Can't you pretend that I don't exist?"

As for everyone else, they already gave up thinking. Some could still accept the fact that Krune took 8 years to reach the Six Silver Stars level. Although it would be frightening, they could agree that Krune, or better, Jolk advanced step by step to reach this level. But now, they found out that Krune went from a Five Bronze Stars to Six Silver stars in Five months!

"Now, I understand why my master said that there is always a higher mountain."

"Five months... Just five months... All the effort and sweat I put into alchemy, was it all for nothing?"

"Fortunately, this is my last Alchemist competition. The next one, I will be over 35 years old already. I wouldn't have the heart to compete against such a monster when that time comes."

"Indeed. Also, he is just a wisp. If he was from another race, I think I would kill myself right here and right now."

Ramon and Yilio smiled even more after hearing all the comments. Their plan was for Krune to get all the attention, and it seems like it was working pretty fine.

Krune, on the other hand, wanted to cry already. He quickly got his electronic token and swiftly left with the other two.

Some distance away, there was another alchemist that didn't seem to care that much.

"Seems like that guy's talent isn't that bad. Sadly, he is a wisp."

That guy's companion then snorted.

"Hmph! What does that have to do with us? We came here to fight for the top positions. Since he is still at the Six Silver Stars level, he isn't our match."

"You say that, but I noticed the change on your face when you heard about he being a Five Bronze Stars five months ago."

"So what? Just because they said that it doesn't mean that this is the truth. Let's go, it's our time for registration."

Those two guys are from another planet in the same solar system called Fakie. Their names were Dano Fassi and Ernely Qitian, also members of the Alchemist Organization, and strong candidates on top of that.

The two then went through the same process as Yilio and everyone else.

"Name and Rank."

"Dano Fassi, Peak Eight Silver Stars Alchemist."

Dano put his hands on the ball, and soon, the information appeared.

-Core Formation Realm, 7th Stage. 25 Years old.-

Quite a few felt shocked when they saw that. Of course, it wasn't as much as it was with Krune.

The employee quickly finished this guy registration and asked for the next one to come.

"Ernely Qitian, Nine Silver Stars Alchemist."

Ernely did the same thing after saying his name.

-Core Formation Realm, 8th Stage. 26 years old.-

Another wave of exclamation appeared. To be at the Nine Stars level while still far from 30 years of age shows how much talent Ernely has.

Dano and Ernely ignored everyone's eyes and left right after getting their electronic tokens.

Of course, they weren't the only ones who caught the participants' attention. Soon, more and more talented alchemists started to appear. That was to be expected. After all, this is the place where all the alchemists of the solar system gather to compete. It wouldn't make sense if just one or two high-level young alchemists appeared.

Still, so far, there wasn't a single Golden Stars Alchemist below 35 years old. The bottleneck between both levels wasn't something that could be broken that easily. The average age of the alchemists that enter the Golden Star level would usually be 100+ years old. That shows just how difficult the Golden Star Level Bottleneck is to be surpassed.

Of course, there is always an exception now and then. This time, such an exception happened once more.

"Kaio Tirenia, One Golden Star Alchemist."

Finally, someone was able to get the entire place quiet once more after Krune. Kaio then proceeded to put his hand on the crystal ball.

-Divine Soul Realm, 1st Stage. 34 years old.-

The place went in an uproar after seeing that. Being at the Divine Soul Realm before 35 years of age wasn't anything especially difficult. So far, there had appeared one or another on this registration day. But a Golden Star Alchemist is another story altogether!

Don't look down on his close to the age limit for the competition. Kaio was the only golden star alchemist who appeared until now!

There is a reason why the Golden Star level is so hard to be attained. That is because one will need to have the grasp of laws! Yes, Golden Star Level alchemists must at least have some understanding of the laws. Of course, having some knowledge and fully understand are two completely different levels. Fortunately, if you can apply the little that you know about it into your pills, you at least have achieved the very first condition to become a Golden Star Alchemist.

Divine Soul Realm cultivators or demon beasts that can use a little of the laws are rare but not impossible to find. But those would usually be already at the late stages or at the peak of the Divine Soul Realm. Not to mention that they would also have much more than 35 years of age. Now a 1st Stage Divine Soul Real under 35 years old who can use laws? That is what the cultivation world calls talent! Of course, there is also the fact that we are in the Dalin Universe, where laws are a lot easier to be understood.

It is also worth remembering that usually, one only starts grasping laws in the Soul Forging Realm.

Kaio, too, took his electronic token and left right after.

Because it was still early, there were a lot of alchemists waiting for their time to register. In the end, due to the number of talents coming out this time around, another 2 Golden Stars Alchemists appeared.

One of them was a demon beast called Irken. Also a 1st Stage Divine Soul Realm and a Demon Purple Jellyfish.

As for the other one, it was a female cultivator called Xaia Lian. A 1st Stage of the Divine Soul Realm as well.

Everyone was impressed with the high level of the alchemists this time around, even the Solar System Headquarters wasn't different. It was already quite hard for a single Golden Star Alchemist under the age of 35 to appear here, let alone three!

As expected, the three of them were soon recognized as the three main candidates to get the first place in this Junior Alchemist competition. It went without saying that everyone was talking or thinking about those three. There were quite a few that were feeling depressed too, especially the Nine Silver Stars Alchemists. With those three into the play, it goes without saying that their hopes of getting the first place disappeared like smoke.

Well, everyone except for a certain wisp.

In a restaurant somewhere in Anach City.

"The taste is great! Waiter, would you mind if I talked with the chef? I would like to learn this recipe."

Who else could it be other than Krune? After he and Feifei finished the registration, they decided to go out to eat with Tiane and Ruik. Both Krune and Feifei didn't care that much about this competition, only the things that they would get after it as over. Golden Stars Alchemist? Golden Stars Formations Master? What are those? We don't care!

Ruik looked at Krune and rebuked.

"Can't you stop being so shameless? If they start giving their recipes to everyone who appears, wouldn't that impact their own business? Think a little before talking."

Feifei, on the other hand, didn't mind.

"It's okay, Krune will probably pay for it anyway. Besides, it means that our food menu at home will increase once more."

Tiane sighed after hearing that.

"Feifei, your taste for food changed quite a little after you two got together, no?"

Feifei nodded.

"Once you get used to eating his food every day, you can't help but take a liking for it. Didn't you notice that you also don't eat just anything anymore? You always wait for us to get back home so that we can eat together."

Tiane sighed once more since she can't deny that. She, too, got used to how tasty Krune's food is and feels like something would not be right if she doesn't get her piece once a day.

Krune, of course, ignored everyone and kept insisting on talking with the chef. In the end, the restaurant boss agreed to it for a price, but he had to wait for when the rush time was over.

A few hours later, Krune left the restaurant with a big smile on his face. It was evident that this wisp was in an excellent mood.

"Finally, there was some use for coming to Anach City this time around."

Alchemist competition? What is that? Compared with the new food recipes he got this time around, that Junior Alchemist Competition can go to hell!
