Chapter 19: Not very sure, only 98%
Xiao Xue’s first stop for training was the Jia Ma Imperial Capital.
The first thing she has to do is naturally to become an alchemist.
With her status as an alchemist, she can enjoy convenience in most places on this continent.
As for why she wanted to go to the Imperial Capital, it was naturally because she wanted to take this opportunity to contact the Gama royal family in advance.
After all, if you want the Xiao family to have a higher development space, it is definitely not possible to hide in Wutan City.
The current strongest member of the Xiao family is just a great fighting master and does not have the capital to develop in a big city.
If you want the Xiao family to rise rapidly, you must borrow help from the outside.
There are only two transcendental forces in the Jiama Empire, one is the Jiama Royal Family, and the other is the Yunlan Sect.
Behind the Yunlan Sect, there is the Soul Palace, which will inevitably become hostile to the Xiao family in the future.
Although it is not known whether Yunshan has contacted the Soul Palace now, Xiao Xue will not take this risk.
Relatively speaking, the Gama royal family is more reliable.
Moreover, Xiao Xue is very optimistic about whether the Gama royal family will choose to cooperate with the Xiao family or "invest" in the Xiao family.
Decades ago, the Yunlan Sect made a correct investment and acquired a sixth-grade alchemist, Furukawa. From then on, the Gama royal family had no choice but to give in before the Yunlan Sect.
The current Gama royal family, in addition to the Yunlan Sect, which is a serious enemy, there is also Queen Medusa of the snake people, the peak fighting emperor, internally, and externally, the Izumo Empire, the enemy of the past generations.
There is a Dou Huang in the Jiaji royal family who is at the peak of Jia Xingtian, but he has wasted many years and still failed to break through to Douzong, and no one in the future can beat him.
To put it simply, the current situation, with its internal and external troubles, is very unfavorable to the Gama royal family.
Therefore, the Gama royal family needs a genius with a clean identity to help them get through this difficult period.
Therefore, Xiao Xue is confident to reach cooperation with the Jiama royal family.
This is a win-win situation.
———
Jia Ma Imperial Capital.
The prosperous imperial capital is wrapped in thick city walls.
This city wall demonstrates the strong national power of the Gama Empire, and at the same time, it also sends a message to the outside world:
There is no Dou Zun in the Jia Ma Empire.
Because Dou Zun’s forces will use space barriers for defense instead of building city walls.
After all, the city wall can be penetrated by a certain Poseidon next door, but the space barrier cannot.
Having said that, as the imperial capital of the Gama Empire, this place is also quite prosperous.
The Imperial City covers a large area, and the roads are complicated. People who are not familiar with it are likely to get lost.
Xiao Xue, a wanderlust, actually got lost... in the capital of the Jiama Empire.
Xiao Xue helplessly held her forehead, "I made a mistake. I should have found a guide at Miter Auction House..."
With the talent Xiao Xue has shown now, I would be very happy to let Xiao Xue owe them a favor if she wants to come to Miter Auction House.
It was useless to say this now. Xiao Xue shook her head, crossed the long queue, and went directly to the soldiers watching the gate.
"Little brother, how to get to the Alchemist Guild?"
The soldier observed Xiao Xue and found that although Xiao Xue was young, the clothes on her body were worth at least several thousand gold coins, the bracelet on her hand was not ordinary, and she seemed to have a medicinal fragrance.
So, he quickly responded with a good look and replied respectfully, "Miss... please wait a moment. We have dedicated service staff here for alchemists."
Xiao Xue nodded and looked at the long team aside calmly.
Not long after, a female guide with a curvy figure walked towards Xiao Xue and said, "Miss, please come with me."
Silently all the way, Xiao Xue followed the waiter, and a few minutes later, the two of them arrived in front of a tall building.
Xiao Xue looked up and saw that this building was at least thirty meters high, and its area was incalculable.
Being able to occupy such a large place in the imperial capital, where every inch of land is at a premium, shows the importance of this building to the city.
——Jiama Empire Alchemist Guild Headquarters.
"Miss, this is the Alchemist Guild. Do you still need me to accompany you?" The waiter stopped, turned to look at Xiao Xue, and asked politely.
"No, thank you," Xiao Xue took out a plaster and handed it to the waiter, "I'll give this to you."
"This ointment can slightly strengthen a person's constitution, improve skin texture, slow down skin aging, and make skin whiter and more tender."
When he heard words such as "improve skin quality", "slow down aging", "whiter skin" and other words, the waiter's eyes lit up like incandescent lamps.
If she knew that this was just a plaster that Xiao Xue had concocted at random and didn't even have a high grade, she didn't know what she would think.
Just like Nuwa created human beings, what Xiao Xue gave to the waiter were just "mud ideas", while what she left for the family's internal use was a carefully refined product.
And even Xiao Xue didn't know that the second-grade skin care plaster she carefully refined using water-based fighting energy was handed over to her family.
Except for those shares that were distributed, the rest for sale were all secretly taken down by a certain young lady at a high price.
After all, with the special nature of Xiao Xue's fighting spirit, refining second-grade elixirs is time-consuming and laborious, so naturally it does not leave much inventory for the family.
Therefore, Xiao Xun'er, who was wearing a white robe, took all the dozens of skin care plasters for auction.
In any world, women's pursuit of beauty is eternal, not to mention that water-based fighting energy has the effect of beautifying the skin.
Even the plaster that Xiao Xue gave to the waiter was more effective than the beauty medicines on the market.
The waiter thanked Xiao Xue excitedly, while everyone passing by cast curious glances.
There is no way, Xiao Xue's appearance is too outstanding, and her spending is so generous, it is difficult not to attract people's attention.
Xiao Xue received a warm welcome among the people in the Alchemist Guild, who were either curious or looking at her with scrutiny.
Xiao Xue was not ambiguous, and took out a second-grade elixir and said, "I want to take the alchemist examination."
Everyone was shocked. Xiao Xue looked like she was no more than fifteen years old, but she was going to take the alchemist exam directly.
However, seeing how Xiao Xue spent generously and didn't take the elixir seriously, no one questioned or ridiculed it.
"Sir, for the alchemist assessment, you must first register." Another woman who looked like a waiter squeezed through the crowd and walked to Xiao Xue and said.
"Yes." Xiao Xue nodded and followed the waiter to a place that looked like a front desk.
"Name?"
"Xiao Xue."
"Age?"
"Fourteen."
The waiter paused with his pen tip, and then looked up at Xiao Xue with a shocked look on his face, "...How much?"
Xiao Xue thought about it and felt it was inappropriate, "Fourteen and a half years old."
"Hiss~"*N
There was a sudden "hissing" sound on the field, and then there was a lot of discussion.
If they hadn't already had the impression of Xiao Xue as a "spending alchemist", they would probably be unable to hold back at this moment and make all kinds of ridicule and sarcasm towards her.
The waiter swallowed hard and continued to ask with a trembling voice: "You...your master?"
Xiao Xue said the words she had prepared long ago, "Sorry, I have no comment."
"I am only the teacher's registered disciple. Before I achieve certain achievements, the teacher does not allow me to take his name."
"This..."
The waiter was a little at a loss. A genius who could take the alchemist exam at the age of fourteen was not recognized as a disciple, but only registered by name?
This kind of thing has exceeded her imagination.
"Little girl, are you really here to take the alchemist exam?"
An old voice came, and immediately, an old man wearing a purple robe walked up to Xiao Xue.
"President!" The waiter bowed respectfully to the old man and then stepped aside in silence.
"Little girl, isn't your fighting spirit the attribute of fire and wood?" Fa Ma stared at Xiao Xue with a scrutinizing gaze.
Hearing this, Xiao Xue raised her eyebrows, "Oh? So what?"
Fa Ma frowned, "Are you sure you can pass the alchemist exam?"
The waiter's strength is low and Xiao Xue's strength cannot be seen, but Fa Ma has already entered the level of Dou Wang.
Moreover, he himself is also a fifth-grade alchemist, and his soul power is at the top of the entire Jiama Empire.
In Fa Ma's view, Xiao Xue's soul power is very powerful, not even weaker than an ordinary third-level alchemist, but her fighting spirit attributes are inconsistent.
Therefore, when Xiao Xue proposed to conduct the alchemist examination, Fa Ma naturally had doubts about it.
Regarding Fa Ma's doubts, Xiao Xue smiled slightly and said, "I'm not sure, only 98%."
