Oh no! I, the weakling, have become the villain!

After helping the girl resolve the seal issue, Xu Yao prepared to go home. Upon seeing this, the girl quickly followed him, feeling that she had to repay him properly for saving her life.

"Repay me? Forget it, I don't need it."

But Xu Yao was stunned as soon as he got home: Where is my home?!

This is the little nest I painstakingly built myself!

My pet turtle, my white cat, and even my dog ​​Wangcai all disappeared!

"You're dreaming. These things must all be fake."

Xu Yao was stunned. It was good that the system was gone, but now he didn't know where his whole house had been moved to!

"Fellow Daoist, what's wrong?"

After seeing Xu Yao's expression, the girl quickly asked.

"My home... is gone."

Xu Yao's lips twitched as he spoke.

……

Since there was nowhere else to go, Xu Yao had no choice but to follow behind the girl, Zhang Zhilan. Zhang Zhilan kindly explained things to him, which helped him gain some understanding of the world.

The place before us is called the Xuantian Continent, and there are five levels of cultivation on the Xuantian Continent: Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, and Deity Transformation.

The Qi Refining stage requires nine levels, while the other cultivation levels are divided into three stages: early, middle, and late.

but……

Their power structure in the Ming Realm is different from this one!

The stages of Void Revelation, Body Integration, Yin Spirit, Yang Spirit, Mahayana, and Ascension should be like those in their Bright Realm! He's only at the early stage of Void Revelation right now, which is incredibly weak.

"Since you have nowhere to go, why don't you come back to Qingfeng Sect with me? Our Qingfeng Sect is currently recruiting students, so you'll definitely be fine, my benefactor!"

Zhang Zhilan saw that the opponent had easily blocked her senior brother's attack, so she thought he must have some strength. Therefore, she should be able to pass this entrance test easily.

But Xu Yao was shocked to hear this. It was ridiculous. He had heard Zhang Zhilan say before that Qingfeng Sect was a genuine and righteous sect. He thought that a demonic cultivator like himself would be beaten to death if he went in!

"I can't do it, don't worry about me."

"Well, at least give it a try."

Zhang Zhilan dragged and pleaded for a long time, finally managing to persuade him to come to Qingfeng Sect and participate in their tests using her silver tongue.

"Not qualified enough, next one!"

A man dressed in Qingfeng Sect robes touched a boy's wrist and then called out.

"Ugh!"

After hearing this, the boy sighed, turned around dejectedly, and left.

Upon seeing this, Xu Yao gasped. His aptitude was considered extremely poor in the Ming Realm. He had previously considered joining a prestigious sect, but due to his lack of talent, all the righteous sects had rejected him.

"I have a question... Is it only those with the required qualifications who can enter the sect?"

Xu Yao spoke up weakly.

"If you were an alchemist or a weapon refiner, it wouldn't be impossible for you to join the Azure Maple Sect."

The middle-aged man frowned and spoke to Xu Yao.

"Ah! That works too. I do have some alchemy skills. I'd like to apply to join the Azure Maple Sect."

After listening, Xu Yao finally breathed a sigh of relief. He knew he was lacking in cultivation, but when it came to alchemy and weapon crafting, he was outstanding and could be considered a strongman.

"Alchemists also have to pass a special examination, and the examination for alchemists is not held here. If you can find someone to watch over things here for me, I will go with you."

When the man heard Xu Yao say that he was an alchemist, he didn't say much. He just told Xu Yao to wait there and that he would show him the way.

"Hehe, no need for such complicated tricks, I'll just lead the way."

Zhang Zhilan spoke with a smile at this moment, and then led Xu Yao toward the assessment location.

Upon seeing that this person knew Zhang Zhilan, the middle-aged man smiled slightly. He had been wondering how an alchemist could end up in a sect like theirs, but it turned out that he had been lured here by this little girl, Zhang Zhilan.

"Why didn't you tell me you knew alchemy sooner!"

Zhang Zhilan bit her lip and spoke.

"Anyway, you didn't ask."

Xu Yao said with a hint of helplessness.

"Um……"

Zhang Zhilan scratched her head; this was the first time in all these years that she had ever seen a man like this.

Guided by Zhang Zhilan, Xu Yao finally arrived at the alchemist assessment point set up by the Qingfeng Sect.

The Qingfeng Sect recruits students in Qingfeng City, and the alchemist assessment center of the Qingfeng Sect is located in the Alchemist Association of Qingfeng City.

"These are all alchemists from the Qingfeng Sect. You go in first; I have something to attend to and need to return to my sect."

After Zhang Zhilan left, Xu Yao went inside, thinking of the location of the Alchemist Association.

The Alchemist Association was quite grand, and Xu Yao, momentarily disoriented, asked a young girl beside him:

"Fellow Daoist, where is the alchemist assessment site?"

"An alchemist assessment? You're here for that too?"

The girl looked at Xu Yao with some surprise. Xu Yao looked to be in his twenties. Was it too late for him to start taking the alchemy exam at this age?

"Ah."

Xu Yao nodded, unaware that he and the girl weren't discussing an exam. He had been referring to the Qingfeng Sect's alchemist assessment, while the girl was talking about an alchemist rank test.

"I'm participating in this too, shall we go together?"

After the girl finished speaking, she acted like a big sister, pulling those who needed her towards a room in the Alchemist Association.

After helping Xu Yao register, Xu Yao learned in the chat that the girl in front of him was named Han Xue, sixteen years old. Such a young alchemist was a genius even in the Ming Realm.

Standing before the alchemy furnace, Xu Yao glanced at the pharmacy and was somewhat astonished. What was going on with the Qingfeng Sect? The pills in front of him were utterly inferior in the Ming Realm, not even comparable to half-grade pills.

This thing is just an ordinary pill, yet they claim it's something needed for the assessment?

It’s too outrageous!

Although he didn't know why there were no requirements to join the Qingfeng Sect, Xu Yao still started what he was doing.

"I finished."

Han Xue, who had just lit the flames and was about to add materials to the alchemy furnace, was startled when she heard Xu Yao's words.

Everyone present, except Han Xue, was taken aback.

"Is it...done?"

Even the proctors were quite surprised by the way they were looking at Xu.

"Ah."

Xu Yao took out the pills and spoke.

After listening, the middle-aged man came to Xu Yao's side, took the pill, and examined it. Yes, this pill was exactly what he needed. It was still steaming, even feeling a little hot to the examiner's touch.

But is this really a speed at which a human can achieve alchemy?

Could you repeat what you just did?

The middle-aged man took a deep breath and asked.
