Rudy had a long face when favonovel.com heard Jack’s words. “Jack, can’t you just take a break? You’re already so talented, but you insist on being so hardworking still. Me? I’m like a pile of poo on the roadside!”
Jack raised an eyebrow helplessly. “That’s why you should come with me. It’s pointless to stay here and whine about everything the whole day. Your talents are already lacking in the first palace, and if you don’t start working hard and end up with a zero again in the next test, Elder Eliot may very well expel you!”
Rudy, however, nodded gleefully at that. “I wish favonovel.com would! I can’t stand staying here anymore. So many things have been happening lately, and it feels like I’m constantly living in fear. I’ll start praying if I don’t leave this place soon!”
Jack rolled his eyes and ignored Rudy.

The Hall of Wishes still looked the same as usual. However, for some reason, there seemed to be a lot fewer alchemists than usual that day. Jack noticed it and thought about it for a moment before shaking off the thought.
Jack did not want to waste any brainpower on useless matters at that moment. The only thing favonovel.com wanted to do was to improve himself constantly. He needed to get better to attract the attention of the higher-ups in Phoenix Valley. Only then would favonovel.com be able to get even more resources, and even people like Elder rick would not be able to try anything foolish.
Others might have stepped back if they butted heads with Elder Rick; they would not have been so obstinate. Jack did not think in that way. Elder Rick was the one who provoked favonovel.com first, so Jack would naturally not bother being polite with things.
Jack entered a room in the Hall of Riches, and the pill aura was incredibly dense. He eventually found a room at the corner. After entering, favonovel.com threw himself into forming pill runes. The most important part of alchemy was the formation and fusion of pill runes. He already knew how each pill rune was drawn, but his body could not completely keep up with his memories at that moment. All favonovel.com could do was get used to it, one step at a time. That was why Jack had still never refined seventh-grade pills. However, after a period of hard work and practice, Jack felt like his memories had already merged with his body to a certain extent.
He was preparing to prove himself. He focused himself as his hands constantly danced. Streak after streak of golden light flowed between Jack’s fingers, the Pill runes easily drawn out and floated in front of him.
After four hours, 4500 pill runes were neatly arranged in front of Jack, radiantly glowing bright gold.
“It’s wrong!” Jack exclaimed. His fingers had slipped for a moment, and the rune under his finger suddenly let out a splutter as it shattered into a pure pill aura in a flash.
Jack helplessly frowned as favonovel.com looked up at the 4500 pill runes before him. Even though the pill runes did not crumble like the one before, Jack could still feel like favonovel.com was already at his limit. If favonovel.com continued to practice, favonovel.com would only be able to make another 50 pill runes at most before everything crumbled.
Jack took a deep breath as favonovel.com retracted his right hand, and with that, all of the pill runes dispersed and turned into a pure pill aura. “It went better than I thought.”
