Reincarnated With A System In A Cultivation World

The attendant returned minutes later and returned the card.

"It is an honor to have a VIP guest of the Shiaxi Auction house here. I hope that you forgive us for our paltry service. The test will be starting shortly. I hope that you will be able to pass." the attendant's expressions and face changed considerably.

Now, he was no longer looking at me with contempt, but with a worshipping expression. This VIP figure was clearly not for show. But why did they give me such a big title after just giving him one or two pills? I did not understand it, but I shrugged. Why care?

I glanced at the participants. They were all looking at me now. The commotion that the attendant made turned their attention towards me.

For some reason, I felt like all of their time was being wasted. They were trying so hard to memorize the Pill ingredients. But for me, all I needed to do was spend a few skill points and I could have all of this information imprinted in my mind.

An old man appeared at this very moment and took a quick scan.

"I see that many of you have come here from last time. Well, I hope that you will have a different outcome as well. The last exam, I was very disappointed by the results. All of you are here for the first leaf clover exam, I assume." he asked.

"I am here for the second leaf clover exam, senior." I raised my hand.

He raised his eyebrows.

"I can see that you do not have a pill badge as of yet. Your hands are rough and scarred. You are no alchemist. You are a martial artist. Why is it that you wish to humiliate me by wasting my time?" he frowned.

"That is not my intention, senior. I am just here to get this test over. I assure you, I am an alchemist. And, I have already paid my fee. I hope that you can accommodate me." I tried my best to remain calm and not offend anyone again.

"Fine then. Let us get going. I hope that I am lucky and see another genius like that You Feng. But the heavens won't do me that favor, it seems." he shook his head as he kept walking inside a room.

​ All of the Alchemy Disciples here stood up and followed him in. I also did the same. I had no clue what to do, so I decided to just follow what they did.

The moment I was at the threshold of the room, I could smell the various spirit ingredients within. There were many.

My eyes sparkled. Here were many of the ingredients that I just hoped would appear in the auctions. Many of the Pills that I intended to make were cut short because I lacked some of the herbs that were here in this room.

"Now, I will cut the arms of any bold man who dares to touch the herbs." the old man glanced at my direction, as if I was the person who would do that.

"You will be given a test sheet. Write down every single herb that is here in this list. Those who manage to identify thirteen of these herbs will be able to go to the next round." he said.

Attendants appeared from nowhere and handed out papers and quills to every single participant. We were made to sit far from each other, and the old man scoured through the room to make sure that we did not look at each other.

The herbs were right in front of us, and I could identify each and every single one of them instantly. Every time I saw one precious herb, my heart tightened. This was another herb that I was missing to create another superb pill.

But the opportunity passed me by. I was in the Core formation realm now, and the pills of the foundation establishment realm were no longer as effective as they were supposed to be.

I sighed as I wrote down every single one of the herbs. It was over within minutes, and I put the paper down. I looked around, but it was not apparent to me why every single one of those Alchemy Disciples were studying those books so studiously.

Here they were, racking their heads and trying to figure out which herb was which. I almost laughed looking at them trying so hard.

"It looks like you are done. Why don't I take a look?" the old man appeared in front of me.

I nodded, and handed him my answers. I looked at what he was doing, and how his expression changed. That was the best way to know if I was actually right. Because, there could be a change in what the system thought was the name, and what the world recognized as the name.

"Interesting. You are an interesting fellow. Why don't you get out of here now and wait outside while the rest of these miserable brats try to figure out which is which." the old man laughed as he walked away from me.

The alchemy disciples all glared at me with hatred. They were under the impression that I was the reason the old man started looking down on everyone.

I sighed as I left the room. I knew that I had to have passed. I took a seat and looked around. The attendant that brought me here, Hulong Tuyu, was also here. He saw me come out and came to me.

"I see that luck was not on your side, Young master. Maybe another time?", he said consolingly.

"Why are you so sure that I failed?" I chuckled.

"It has been a mere three minutes since you went in, young master. Unless every single herb in there, you recognized instantly, you would not be able to come out without failing."
