"Dong dong, dong dong."

Two knocks on the door.

Chen Fan, who was focused on refining elixirs, frowned instantly.

After all, whether it’s alchemy or martial arts practice, being disturbed by the outside world is always an unpleasant thing.

At this moment, Sun Wei’s voice sounded, "Brother Chen, can you come out for a moment? Someone from headquarters is here, Brother Chen?"

Chen Fan heard this and shivered. Is it already the second day?

He quickly picked up the phone next to him, turned it on, and sure enough, it was already nine o’clock on the second day, and it was a brand new month.

"I wrongly blamed the chairman."

Chen Fan smiled bitterly.

He thought, the chairman, being such an understanding person, wouldn’t knowingly interrupt him while he’s refining elixirs, right?

Obviously, it must be something extremely important.

As for Xu Jie and the others, they certainly wouldn’t come to disturb him either.

"Since the people from headquarters are here, this furnace of elixir can only be wasted."

He sighed softly.

Once alchemy starts, it cannot be interrupted.

Otherwise, even if a finished elixir could be produced, its quality would be far inferior.

"It’s my fault for being too engrossed. I should have set an alarm."

He thought to himself, already walking to the front door. He pressed the switch and opened the door.

In his view, naturally, stood Sun Wei. The latter, upon seeing him come out, showed a relieved expression.

"Brother Chen, these two elders are sent by the headquarters to assess you. Let me introduce them to you, this one..."

Chen Fan followed Sun Wei’s gaze and looked at Xia Tian.

The latter smiled slightly, waved his hand, and said while looking at Chen Fan, "No rush, are you currently refining elixirs?"

"Yes."

Chen Fan nodded humbly.

The two exchanged glances, somewhat astonished and appreciative of Chen Fan’s demeanor.

Even martial artists at the mid stage of meridian refining would be fearful upon meeting them, which always made them uncomfortable.

But the young man before them could remain composed, indeed not simple.

"Then you may continue refining. We’ll assess you after you’ve finished this furnace of elixir." Xia Tian smiled, "I hope you don’t mind if we observe."

Sun Wei smiled wryly upon hearing this.

Elder Xia was considerate and patient.

However, Brother Chen hasn’t been refining for long; there’s probably not much to see, right?

Chen Fan was also a bit surprised.

Observation?

So they’ll be watching him closely?

With this, the matter of him being able to refine top-grade Qi Blood Pill can’t be hidden anymore.

Of course, he could refuse.

After a moment of consideration, he smiled, "Sure, please come in, both of you."

This might be the last time he refines Qi Blood Pill, turning to refine True Qi Pill.

This Chen’s Qi Blood Pill Refining Skill would eventually be handed over.

Giving it to the headquarters earlier would help cultivate more Entry Force Martial Artists and increase the number of Meridian Refining Martial Artists, benefiting both the Martial Arts Association and the Human Race’s resurgence.

This opportunity should be seized for demonstration.

As for his exceptional skill, it could only be attributed to his talent.

The three exchanged glances and entered, and the door of the alchemy room was closed again.

Chen Fan moved to the alchemy furnace, adjusting the heat.

Sun Wei stood aside, his expression awkward.

He wanted to say some warm words but knew that alchemy is highly susceptible to external disturbances. If his words distracted Chen Fan, what then?

He ended up standing there like a wooden figure.

Xia Tian and Ye Ling watched Chen Fan refining elixirs with great interest.

Since they were idle, they could see how skilled this young man was in alchemy.

If his skills were average, they’d act as if nothing had happened and proceed with the assessment.

If his skills were decent, they might suggest to headquarters to consider bringing this young man there.

Time passed second by second, and even Sun Wei’s expression changed.

Because Chen Fan’s every move looked exceptionally professional, like a master at alchemy, rather than an apprentice.

Xia Tian and Ye Ling exchanged glances, seeing the surprise in each other’s eyes.

"What do you think?"

Xia Tian asked softly.

"Better than I was back then,"

Ye Ling replied softly, "At least, it seems that way."

"Hmm."

Xia Tian nodded, his curiosity growing.

Martial artists all had an alchemy dream.

He too had once refined elixirs but unfortunately, the shapes of his elixirs were terrible.

Ye Ling was better, able to refine low-grade Qi Blood Pill with a decent pill success rate.

The young man named Chen Fan refined elixirs better than Ye Ling; there might be a considerable probability of producing middle-grade Qi Blood Pill.

Reaching this stage at such a young age was already remarkable.

Of course, these were just his personal speculations, leaning toward optimism, and the actual outcome would be seen later.

After a few more minutes, there was a "bang" from within the alchemy furnace.

"Is it done?"

Sun Wei glanced at the alchemy furnace, instinctively asking.

"Yes."

Chen Fan glanced at him, then looked at the two behind him.

"In that case, please open the alchemy furnace and let us see." Xia Tian smiled.

"Alright."

Chen Fan responded, already anticipating the reactions of the chairman and the two elders.

Hopefully, they won’t be too shocked.

"Elders,"

Sun Wei turned sideways, smiling, "To be honest, Brother Chen hasn’t been refining for long, if the elixir’s quality is average, please don’t mind."

"Chairman Sun, you’re too polite," Xia Tian laughed, "We’re just curious to see, this has nothing to do with the assessment for meridian refining martial artists later."

"That’s right, Chairman Sun, there’s no need to think too much about it," Ye Ling shook his head, "Besides, I think this young man handled the refining process meticulously; presumably, the quality won’t..."

The conversation halted.

Because the air was filled with a dense elixir incense that quickly filled the entire room within a couple of breaths.

"This is?"

"Could it be?"

The three looked forward simultaneously.

In Chen Fan’s hand were freshly refined, steaming elixirs.

There were ten elixirs, each as big as a fingernail, round and glossy, vibrant in color, emanating strong Qi Blood energy from a distance.

"Top! Top-grade Qi Blood Pill!!!"

In the next second, three voices exclaimed simultaneously.

Indeed, this color, this incense, couldn’t possibly be possessed by top-grade Qi Blood Pill.

"No, it seems like this entire furnace of elixirs are all top-grade Qi Blood Pills?!" Xia Tian exclaimed in disbelief.

"All, all top-grade Qi Blood Pills?" Sun Wei and Ye Ling looked at each elixir and were immediately deeply shocked.

Good heavens!

Are they dreaming? Or hallucinating? This entire furnace, was it really all top-grade?

Xia Tian’s mouth opened wide.

The Vice Chairman had said that even the top alchemy masters at headquarters couldn’t achieve a furnace full of top-grade Qi Blood Pills.

Generally, a furnace of ten elixirs with three top-grade ones was impressive; usually, there were just one or two.

It’s why top-grade Qi Blood Pills weren’t sold since they couldn’t even meet the headquarters’ demand.

But this young man named Chen Fan, how could he be so skilled? An entire furnace of top-grade Qi Blood Pills?

Even the alchemy masters at headquarters would bow down before him.

The trio’s eyes shifted to Chen Fan, eagerly seeking an answer.

"Yes."

Chen Fan smiled sheepishly, looking at Sun Wei, "Chairman, actually, I was just about to talk to you about this."

"What, what is it?"

Sun Wei’s mind went blank, instinctively responding to Chen Fan’s words.

"I noticed after refining according to the association’s pill formula that some areas could be improved. After improvement, the pill success rate would increase, and the quality would significantly improve."

Chen Fan explained.

"You, you improved the pill formula?"

Sun Wei’s head buzzed.

Xia Tian and Ye Ling weren’t much better off.

They stared at Chen Fan, at a loss for words.

They had no choice but to believe, as the truth was right before them.

"Yes."

Chen Fan smiled, somewhat relieved.

Fortunately, there weren’t Heaven-grade Qi Blood Pills, right?

Otherwise, I can’t imagine how shocked the chairman and others would be.

Though they were shocked enough already.

The atmosphere was quiet, except for the sound of breathing.

Sun Wei’s body trembled.

He was too excited.

When Chen Fan initially wanted to practice alchemy, he worried that Chen Fan might be wasting money and time, so he sought help from others, but unfortunately, they were unresponsive.

But now,

Chen Fan’s capabilities proved him wrong!

Not only could he refine elixirs, but he could also produce top-grade ones, and most impressively, he even improved the pill formula.

This news, when sent to headquarters, would undoubtedly cause huge waves!

The formula would be adopted and classified as highly confidential, and Chen Fan would likely be brought to Jiangnan City for special training.

As the chairman, he would be proud too.

"I knew it, I knew Brother Chen wasn’t ordinary! His martial arts talent was one in a million, and so was his alchemy talent!"

He thought to himself, forgetting it was him who greeted Xia Tian and Ye Ling.

Xia Tian and Ye Ling, accustomed to big scenes, quickly recovered from their shock.

"Brother Chen," Xia Tian’s tone became respectful, "Are you serious? Did you really improve the formula and refine this entire furnace of top-grade Qi Blood Pills with it?"
