"What? A million? But the previous attendant said that it was just a hundred thousand coins!" I exclaimed.

"That is for someone testing to be a single leaf clover symbol test. But someone who is able to synthesize foundation establishment pills, that means that you are attempting to beat the two lead clover," he said.

"How does this classification even work anyway? I am getting more and more confused right now." I asked.

He gave me a look like I was some country bumpkin. He did not believe that I could become an alchemist. Anyone would think that I was doing it for fun.

"The single leaf indicates that the alchemist is able to create Qi Condensation Realm Pills. Two leaves indicate foundation establishment stage. Three and four for Core formation, five and six for nascent soul, and seven and eight for the Xiantian realm." he said.

"So only one each for the Qi condensation stage and the foundation establishment stage pills, huh? I guess that makes sense. The Core formation stage is where the real cultivation starts. Well then, I think that we should go get the test done. I don't want to keep waiting. If I can do this, then I should be able to sell my pills here as well right?"

"Of course. Every recognized alchemist is allowed to sell pills in the pill tower. A Pill Tower is a haven for an alchemist." the attendant smiled.

"Take me to the place where the tests are going on then."

"Coincidentally, a group of alchemist disciples is here to take their test. But it has been delayed because of the situation. I can take you there." the attendant offered.

"I see. I see." I took a step back to let him go forward.

"I am afraid that we cannot go through the teleportation array. It is disabled because the intruder might be able to escape through it. Please follow me to the stairs." the attendant shook his head.

"Which floor are the tests happening on?"

"The third floor." the attendant said.

"Wait a minute. I thought that the top ten floors were sealed off. What is this about the third floor now? How can we go there? Are you trying to play me for a fool?" I frowned.

"Of course not, esteemed guest. The elders have decided that after sealing off the entire Pill Tower, the guests are allowed to go to any of the floors, as long as they are supervised. There are cultivation rooms available for all those who wish to avail them." He said with a louder voice so that everyone could hear him.

With this, all of the other people on the floor just scrambled around. They wanted this cultivation room. And there were probably limited spots available, so they had to rush to get there.

"I will also go to get a cultivation room. I wish you the best of luck. But I am sure that you do not need it. Your talent as an alchemist has already been shown." Cai Lien said as she left me alone with the attendant.

"Alright then. Let us walk down seven floors. It shouldn't be that big a problem." I said.

"Please come this way."

We went to a corner of the floor. There, behind an unassuming door, lay the stairs. Immediately, someone stopped us.

"Where are you going?" he asked.

"This guest wishes to take the two leaf clover test. I am taking him to the third floor." the attendant said.

"Oh! Hulong Tuyu? Go ahead, go ahead. I just can't seem to understand why this happened? How did someone sneak into the tower?" the attendant sighed.

"Another Hulong? What is this? Are all the attendants of the tower from the same clan? Or is this clan a servant of the Pill Tower? What the hell is this?" I wondered.

"I have no time to chitchat. I have to take this guest downstairs." Hulong Tuyu sighed as he walked down the stairs.

It was not that difficult. Cultivation made my physique strong. It also made it stronger than most others. I could see that the attendant in front of me was gasping for air even though he was in the Foundation Establishment stage.

"How can someone be so high up in cultivation when they are so useless?" I wondered.

We got to the third floor and left the stairs. This floor seemed to be much bigger than the previous one. But that did not make any sense to me. From the outside, it looked like all the floors were the same width. That meant that the higher floors had more rooms for some reason.

"Must be all the alchemists inside." I guessed as I kept walking.

We stopped in front of a huge group that was just sitting at what appeared to be a waiting room. They were all reading the same looking book carefully.

I took a closer look and saw what the title was.

"Medicine Encyclopedia"

"It is the list of spirit ingredients!" I realized. All of these people were studying for some test of sorts.

"So the test is going to be in so many things, and not just making a pill. I just hope that I will be able to do this right." I hoped as I walked forward.

"Where do I pay?" I asked.

"Do you have a credit provider, or do you wish to pay with something of similar value?" he asked.

"Credit prividor? This place is so weird. It is so advanced, but it also uses such a basic system like barter." I thought as I took out the card that I got from the Shianxi Auction house.

"Will this work?" I asked.

"The Shianxi Auction House? Of course! I shall complete this transaction and send word to the auction house." the attendant took the guard.
