Chapter 603: This student… I want him

“Why? I thought that there wasn’t a slated time for the competition?” Sima You Yue was stunned and asked.

“There isn’t a specific time in which you cannot enter, but there is only three and a half hours till the end of the examination. It’s completely impossible for you to refine a sixth ranked pill in that short time, so it’s pointless for you to enter and you will disturb others who are taking their examinations as well. You should go back.”

“No way, I want to compete.” Sima You Yue said firmly, “I have to compete!”

“No way, no way. Just go home. Come earlier next time for the selection, don’t miss another opportunity.” The teacher waved his hands, telling her to leave.

“Teacher, this selection is very important to me. Teacher, just let me go in.” Sima You Yue pleaded.

“It’s not about whether or not I want to let you pass. You just don’t have enough time if you enter now. Going in won’t make a difference.” That teacher wasn’t cold hearted. Seeing such a youngster begging him made him hesitate a little.

He understood as well that there was a big difference between the inner and outer sect!

“What’s going on?” Ge Lang asked as he walked out from the back.

“Teacher Ge.”

“Teacher Ge, this student says that he wants to go in for the exam.” The teacher replied.

“Let him enter.” Ge Lang said.

“But he doesn’t have enough time now. He…”

“Let him enter.” Ge Lang repeated before turning around and leaving.

The teacher standing guard didn’t understand why Ge Lang insisted on letting her in, but he still stepped aside to let her through.

“Thank you, teacher.” Sima You Yue smiled at him before running to the examination area.

Bei Gong Tang and the others had long since told her what her position was, so she ran straight there. When she saw them, she smiled at them before examining the ingredients on the table.

Bei Gong Tang and Ouyang Fei heaved a sigh of relief when she entered and continued the fusion process.

Xu Jin leaned on his chair lazily and noticed that Ge Lang had returned. “That the one?” He asked with a smile.

Ge Lang didn’t reply, his focus completely on Sima You Yue’s alchemy.

Xu Jin was familiar with his personality and didn’t get angry, choosing to watch Sima You Yue refine pills as well.

“Time is so tight but he actually still examines the ingredients so thoroughly. His dedication isn’t bad. But, Ol’ Ge, do you really think he will be able to refine the Green Lotus Pill in such a short time frame?”

Ge Lang actually bothered with him this time. He even smiled, scaring Xu Jin.

“It’ll be fine, as long as it’s him.”

Xu Jin was in shock as he looked at his smirk, cursing, “Damn, no way. Ol’ Ge, you’re actually smiling! Heavens. This ice block actually knows how to smile!”

At his cry, many other teachers turned their attention to them. They initially thought of berating the teacher who shouted, but turned away once they noticed who it was.

So it was this crazy guy. They definitely didn’t want to deal with him.

Xu Jin didn’t bother about their attitude as he continued to speak to Ge Lang. However, Ge Lang refused to reply to him.

“Hey, Ge Lang. Why do you keep looking at him? There are only three hours left now. It’s an impossible feat to refine the Green Lotus Pill… damn. Am I seeing things? He, he actually…”

Xi Jiu’s expression of shock was even more intense than when he had seen Ge Lang smile earlier on. He pointed at Sima You Yue with a hand that would not stop trembling, and couldn’t speak at all.

When the other teachers saw his huge reaction, they looked over to Sima You Yue as well. They watched as she threw a few ingredients into the furnace simultaneously and were all shocked.

“He- is he crazy? How could he put all those ingredients in at the same time? How is he going to refine the green lotus pill like that? Wastral! Wastral!” A teacher shouted.

“Whose student is that? How could he waste ingredients like this? How do you outer sect teachers teach your students?”

“Not mine, he’s not my student.”

“Not mine, either.”

“Even if he isn’t, we can’t let him waste ingredients like this! I propose that the sect should mete out a punishment for a student like that who doesn’t know how to treasure pill ingredients.”

“Isn’t that the student who just came in? Why did we let this kind of student in?”

“Ss-”

Just as they were in their heated discussion, Sima You Yue threw a few more pill ingredients in before continuing her refinement.

“Heavens! Heavens! How could he defile the pill ingredients this way! I say we revoke his right to participate and kick him out!”

“Yeah, we cannot let him continue to defile pills any more! Someone who does not know how to cherish pill ingredients will never become a good alchemist!”

“I agree!”

“…”

“Are you guys idiots?” Just as every teacher was in shock, a languid voice cut through their discussion.

“Xu Jin, what do you mean by this?” Everyone was displeased at his insult.

“Exactly what I said. The fact that you can’t even understand this proves that you’re an idiot.” Xu Jin said lazily.

“Xu Jin, don’t think you can randomly curse others just because you have a special position.” A teacher stood up and complained.

“When did I curse you randomly?” Xu Jin gave them a sideways glance, “You can’t even recognise the Diverse Refinement method and accuse the student of wasting resources. If you’re not an idiot, then what are you?”

“What did you say?” That teacher was shocked and had to take a step back to steady himself, “The Diverse Refinement Method? How does he know the Diverse Refinement method? His level shouldn’t be enough to handle this kind of pill refinement method!”

“Your final question is finally on point.” Xu Jin said, “However, I don’t care about how he is able to handle it. The fact is he can. Look at the aura that his refinement is producing.”

“Its extremely pure.” A youth who appeared to be male said, despite being quite the entire time, “Alright. What are you all fighting for. There are many students watching! You should all watch the students refine silently.”

“Yes.”

At his word, everyone settled down and did not comment any further. However, everyone continued to watch her. They were all extremely curious as to how he did the Diverse Refinement method.

“You knew that he knew this long ago.” Xu Jin scooted over to Ge Lang and said, “That’s why you let him participate in the selection. You know that it would drastically reduce the time taken to refine pills.”

Ge Lang glanced at him saying, “Why ask if you already know.”

“Damn, Ol’ Ge, you really did know! You did this on purpose!” Xu Jin glared at him hatefully.

“I’ve said it before that he’s special. You’re the one who didn’t take my words to heart.” Ge Lang said with a grin.

“You merely said that he’s rather talented and skillful in medicine, that he can perform alchemy rather well. You never said he was familiar with the Diverse Refinement method.” Xu Jin complained.

“If I told you, would you have been as shocked as when you see it with your own eyes?” Ge Lang just refused to admit that he had done this on purpose. This was revenge for his constant chattering.

Honestly, he himself was immersed with shock when he knew that she was familiar with the Diverse Refinement method. Since he was so stunned, he wanted this guy to feel the same.

Xu Jin pursed his lips, saying, “This student… I want him!”
