Tiandao Library

If it wasn't for Yuan Tao, he wouldn't even come here at all.

Seeing him give up, Ouyang Cheng and Du Man thought he was troublesome, and couldn't help dissuading him: "There are so many professions in the world, and alchemist is one of the most noble professions among them. You have such a good talent, and you have specially studied medicine." Knowledge, if you don't become an alchemist, wouldn't it be a waste of so many years of hard work?"

"Years of hard work?" Zhang Xuan blinked his eyes.

A total of two hours, where did the years come from?

"I still have other things to do. Since the examination of alchemists is so complicated and they need to refine pills, I'm sure I won't be able to learn them in a short time, so forget it!"

Without much hesitation, Zhang Xuan shook his head.

"Don't worry, the assessment of alchemists is actually not only one method of alchemy, but also another method!" Ouyang Cheng remembered something, and suddenly said: "Your memory is so good, maybe this method is more suitable!"

"Did you mean..." Du Man's expression changed.

"Not bad!" Ouyang Cheng nodded.

"But... you have to be clear about the consequences. Once you fail, the punishment will be very severe, and there may even be no possibility to test alchemists in the future..."

Du Man was very anxious.

"I know, but this is the only way to quickly become an alchemist. Otherwise, alchemy requires repeated practice, countless medicinal materials, and success in a short period of time. It's not easy!"

Ouyang Chengdao.

"Can……"

"No, but, we are only responsible for telling this matter, whether it is a choice or not is up to him to decide!" Ouyang Cheng shook his head.

"What method?"

Seeing the lively conversation between the two, Zhang Xuan couldn't help but look over.

"There are two ways to assess alchemists. The first is our normal alchemy. As long as we can refine a first-grade pill, we will naturally become a first-grade alchemist! This is the most orthodox and standard method!"

Ouyang Cheng did not hesitate and opened his mouth to explain.

"The second test is not alchemy, but [alchemy debate]!"

"Bian Dan?"

Zhang Xuan was full of doubts.

Not only him, even Zhu Huahua, Sun Tao and others on the side seemed to have never heard of it, and they were all confused.

"That's right, there is a so-called most noble profession in the upper nine streams, the famous teacher, I think you should have heard of it!"

Ouyang Chengdao.

"Ok!"

The crowd nodded.

Knowing the three occupations of upper, middle and lower, one must know a famous teacher.

This is the highest-ranked profession in the upper nine ranks, and its status is many times higher than that of an alchemist.

"A great master teacher can give advice, not only in cultivation, but also in alchemy, weapon refining, and formation!" Ouyang Cheng explained: "However, it takes a lot of time for a person to become a famous teacher, so how can he have energy? Are you learning alchemy and tool refining, or even becoming an alchemist or tool refining master?"

"If you don't become one of them, how can you give advice to others?"

"In order to neutralize this situation, [Bian Dan], a special assessment method, appeared!"

"Take us alchemists as an example. If you want to become a real alchemist, you must go through a lot of practice and keep refining alchemy to succeed. But a famous teacher certainly doesn't have so much time to spend. He only needs to master the knowledge of alchemy!"

"That is to say, he doesn't need to actually operate it, he just needs to be able to explain the theory, and he can also succeed in the assessment of alchemists!"

"Of course, this assessment is not that easy. Ten real alchemists are needed to debate with them and discuss many details of alchemy in detail. As long as there is one wrong word, they will not pass and will be severely punished!"

Ouyang Cheng slowly explained another method of assessing alchemists [Alchemy Debate].

Chapter 98 I Want to Debate Dan

"Oh? There is another method?"

Zhang Xuan's eyes lit up.

Refining a first-grade elixir, without many years of practice, he also knows that it is impossible to succeed, and the alchemy debate is different. With the Tiandao library, as long as there are enough books and enough knowledge, it is very easy to learn!

"Although this method is very simple, even a famous teacher would rather learn alchemy than do it!" Seeing his excitement, Ouyang Cheng interrupted and couldn't help shaking his head.

"why?"

Zhang Xuan is strange.

If you can pass the theory and become an alchemist, why do you need to learn alchemy?Spend more time?

"To be honest, in any profession, without practice, it is impossible to have a deeper understanding. No matter how much you learn in theory, without practice, no one can guarantee whether it is correct! Not even an alchemist, just relying on what you read in the book Knowledge, debate with real alchemists? Who do you think can win?"

Ouyang Chengdao.

"This……"

Zhang Xuan nodded.

Kung fu on paper will eventually feel shallow, but you must know that this matter must be practiced!This is the truth, and it is also a wise saying.

Optical theory, if you don’t practice it, how will you know if it’s wrong or right?Even if there is a little mistake, the elixir cannot be practiced!

The slightest difference is a thousand miles away!

"After the [Alchemy Debate] method appeared, no less than a thousand famous masters have practiced it over the years. These people are all amazingly talented people, and their understanding of alchemy knowledge is better than any real alchemist. It's a pity... after the start of the alchemy debate, there have been repeated failures, among thousands of famous teachers, there may be less than one person who has truly succeeded!"

Ouyang Cheng sighed.

"Not enough?"

Zhang Xuan was taken aback.

Less than five out of 1000 people succeeded?The probability of this is too low!

"Yes, there is still a big gap between theory and practice. Because of this, alchemy debate is also a method for assessing alchemists, but it is no longer used by many people, and it is gradually being forgotten!"

Ouyang Cheng shook his head.

It sounds easier to debate alchemy than alchemy assessment, but it is actually more difficult.

Without practice, how can light-based theory succeed?

Being able to speak the theory well, it means that he is definitely not bad in practice.

That being the case, instead of the trouble of alchemy debate, it is better to make alchemy assessment, which is simpler.

"Others can't... I can!"

Ignoring the other party's sigh, Zhang Xuan's heart was surging and his eyes became brighter and brighter.

Debating alchemy is indeed more difficult for others, but for him, it is extremely simple!

Owning the Tiandao Library, you can directly see the mistakes and shortcomings. Simple theory without practice, others don't know whether it is correct or not. Just take a photo of his library, and it will be clear immediately!

Use this to argue with others, you won't make mistakes, and you can definitely pass the test easily!

"Since there is such a method, I decided to test alchemy in alchemy debate!" Thinking of this, Zhang Xuan said directly without much hesitation.

"Ah?" I thought that after talking so much, the other party would give up, but I didn't expect to make him more determined, Ouyang Cheng was speechless: "Do you know the consequences of failing to debate alchemy?"

"as a result of?"

"Yes, the alchemy debate requires at least ten alchemists to refute. There are so many alchemists who have status and status, and there is no price. If everyone wants to hold it, wouldn't they be exhausted?" Ouyang Cheng said: "Therefore, the guild stipulates that if an apprentice applies for alchemy debate, it is good if he succeeds. If he fails, each alchemist will be compensated at least one hundred thousand gold coins! Second, he will be punished by one hundred god-killing sticks! Third, he will not be allowed to reapply within ten years. Examination of alchemists!"

Zhang Xuan was speechless.

This punishment is indeed severe.

There are at least ten alchemists in the alchemy debate, and if each one pays 100 yuan, that means at least [-] million gold coins are needed.

So much money is definitely a sky-high price for an alchemy apprentice, and it may not be able to earn it in a lifetime!

God-killing stick is a name for punishment. It will release different powers according to people's cultivation base. One hundred god-killing sticks, even if their current strength is beaten, they will be almost crippled. bed.

As for the third item, how many decades are there in life?Not allowing the assessment within ten years is equivalent to staying away from pills for ten years. If you want to assess again, it is basically equal to being hopeless for life.

"The consequences are very severe, and it is very difficult to pass, which is why no one will try this method. As far as I know, in the territory of more than ten kingdoms adjacent to Tianxuan Kingdom, there has been no examination for hundreds of years! "

Ouyang Cheng's words were discouraging: "You have such a talent, I think it's better to learn alchemy step by step, alchemy debate is not suitable for you!"

"I've already made up my mind, and I'm planning to debate the alchemy, and I'm asking Master Ouyang to help arrange it!" Zhang Xuan shook his head.

Just kidding, alchemy debate can become an alchemist, of course it has to be done.

Otherwise, I don't know how much time it will take for him to learn alchemy and the like.

It's too late to talk, and I don't have so much energy to spend!

"Help arrange it? You won't... want to do it now?"

Master Ouyang staggered.

You just became an apprentice, and you don't even know what alchemy is, so you want to debate alchemy?real or fake?

Are you sure you're not kidding?

"Yes!" Zhang Xuan nodded.

"Do you... know the content of alchemy debate? Do you know what alchemists will ask you? You just became an apprentice and haven't studied systematically, so you just debate alchemy..."

Du Man on one side was also completely speechless.

"Can't I go to the elementary library? If you don't understand the knowledge, you can go and have a look!" Seeing that the other party was so anxious, Zhang Xuan explained.

"Go and see?"

Du Man, Ouyang Cheng and others almost cried.

Brother, you still know how to watch it!

You have just been admitted as an apprentice, and you haven't even gone to the library, so you are going to take the alchemy assessment. Are you sure you are not joking?

The library has a collection of hundreds of thousands of books, and it is impossible to read them all within three to five years. If you don't even get in, you have to debate...

Is it too courageous, or is there something wrong with the brain?

"Well, I will go to the library to read in a while, don't worry, I won't waste time, I may have to bother you two about the alchemy debate!" Zhang Xuan said.

"Read a book later..."

Everyone was dizzy.

Are you going to grind your guns before the battle?

Debating alchemy without reading the book?

He can do such a mindless thing, how did this guy get admitted as an apprentice?

"Don't worry, I know the seriousness, if you don't do something you are not sure about, just arrange it, I'm going to read a book too!" Zhang Xuan couldn't help saying when he saw that everyone was still staying in place.

"Do you know the severity?"

"Don't do things you're not sure about?"

your sister!

Do you know what a pill furnace looks like?Did you know that pills are round or square?Do you know how alchemists refine medicinal materials?

You don't know anything, you have to test the alchemist, and you have to debate alchemy... Are you sure?

"Okay!" Seeing that he insisted and could not be dissuaded, Ouyang Cheng and Du Man glanced at each other and shook their heads: "I will arrange it now, but it may take some time to call so many alchemists, and it will be done tomorrow afternoon." Dan Dan debate! You'd better think clearly about what you want to do during this time, otherwise, once you really want to start, there will be no room for redemption!"

"En!" Zhang Xuan nodded, flicking his sleeves, with a confident and righteous face, he took two steps forward, and suddenly turned his head: "Hey, by the way, where is the elementary library?"

"..." Ouyang Cheng.

"..." Du Man.

"..." Sun Tao and Zhu Huahua.

Chapter 99 The Confused Ouyang Cheng

Ouyang Cheng and the others were heartbroken at this moment.
