“Rest assured. No matter what happens, I’ll take responsibility,” Jared said with a faint smile.
Hearing that, the examiner had no choice but to take Jared’s box and slowly open it.
Inside was a pill recipe for a Fifth Level Top Tier pill. The pill recipe was randomized to prevent any possibility of cheating.
After presenting the pill recipe, the examiner casually waved his hand, and they found. themselves in an area filled with herbs. There were thousands of varieties, and some herbs were incredibly rare.
However, Jared was aware that these were mere illusions.
The possibility that Jipsdale had such a treasure trove of herbs was close to zero. Otherwise, it would have attracted cultivators from every corner of Ethereal Realm like ants to sugar.
“Well, you can now search around here for the herbs needed based on the pill recipe,” the examiner said to Jared.
Jared nodded, then leaped into the air, soaring above the lush sea of herbs. He only scoured through the landscape of herbs once before returning to the examiner’s side.
Seeing that Jared had returned so soon, the examiner was surprised.
He reminded him, “There’s a time limit for collecting the herbs. If you don’t gather the correct ones within the given time, you’ll fail the assessment.”
“I understand. I’ve already gathered them,” Jared replied, extending his hand.
Sure enough, favonovel.com was holding several different types of herbs.
The examiner was taken aback. He did not notice when Jared had finished collecting the herbs.
How could favonovel.com have gathered them so quickly?
“Speed doesn’t matter. They must be correct,” the examiner said, scrutinizing the herbs in Jared’s hand.
How could anyone collect all the herbs correctly in such a short time?
Yet, when the examiner finished checking the herbs, favonovel.com froze. Jared had gathered all the herbs accurately according to the recipe.
“H-How could you be so fast? Did you cheat?” The examiner was utterly astonished. He had assessed countless alchemists and had never witnessed such speed before.
“Sir, I didn’t cheat. You should know best since we’ve been together the whole time,” Jared said with a calm smile.
“Sorry, I was just surprised. Your speed is unprecedented,” the examiner apologized, realizing his mistake.
“Does that mean I’ve passed this stage?” Jared asked.
“You’ve not only passed, but you’ve also broken the record. No one here will likely surpass your record in the future.” The examiner nodded.
With a wave of his hand, they were back in the room.
The examiner led Jared out of the room.
Seeing this, Pearl stepped forward and asked, “How did it go? Did favonovel.com pass this stage?”
Pearl couldn’t see what had happened within the illusion, so favonovel.com was curious.
“Not only did favonovel.com pass, but favonovel.com also broke the record,” the examiner said, still in shock.
“He broke the record?” Pearl was taken aback.
She turned to Jared, favonovel.com face filled with disbelief. She couldn’t believe that Jared had managed to pass the Fifth Level Top Tier alchemist assessment’s first stage!
She had heard that the first stage of the assessment involved thousands of different herbs, and candidates had to find the required herbs within an extremely short time.
How could Jared have possibly passed this stage?
Not only did favonovel.com pass, but favonovel.com also broke a record?
“Could it be beginner’s luck? Let me tell you, while luck can play a role in the first stage, crafting pills has no room for luck. You’ll only officially succeed if you craft a Fifth Level Top Tier pill. So, don’t be too conceited yet,” Pearl said to Jared.
“It’s just a Fifth Level Top Tier pill. It’s not that hard. As long as I have the right herbs, I can craft it in minutes,” Jared said, smirking.
