Chapter 2441
A few of the leaders paid their respects as well, they all cried out, “Greetings, Elder Turner .
That person was an elder within the Middle Province Alchemist Alliance. No matter where it was, the status of an
elder was still well respected. Jackie could not help but take a second look at Elder Turner.
He looked very friendly. His face was round and smiling. Only, there was a sharp ruthlessness that could not be
hidden within his eyes. It proved that he was absolutely not as friendly as he would seem.
Elder Turner waved at all of them and said, “Everyone, thank you so much for coming.I never expected so many
people to be here today, but with the orders from above, we have to obey.”
After elder Turner finished those words, he looked at everyone meaningfully. After then, he put up five fingers and
said, “Five! Today, we’ll only be recruiting five disciples!”
Jackie was not the only person stunned at those words. Everyone stiffened on the spot, noticeably caught off guard.
Only five students? There were at least eighty of them on the deck.

Eighty of them were considered talented individuals in their own ways. To only pick five from eighty proved how
strict the selection was this time!
They only wanted to choose the best of the best, but was it not too strict when they were only recruiting students?
Was there something else hidden behind all this? Elder Turner’s words suddenly pulled everyone into a discussion
again.
There are eighty here, but they only want five! Isn’t that too strict? They’re just recruiting students. Before this, the
Middle Province Alchemist Alliance only wanted some students with slightly better talents.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“After all, there’s no need to be so strict when it’s just students! We’re all prodigies from where we came from, Only
choosing five of us! It’s no different from when some major clans choose their disciples! The Middle Province
Alchemist Alliance is being far too strict!”

That’s right. What are they planning Today is getting stranger and stranger. Grayson is a treasured disciple of the
Rosefinch Pavilion.
They would never let him even see anyone else normally, so what’s with today? They’re actually giving him away
today! This is far too strange!
Grayson’s talent was undoubtedly at the peak among everyone there. After all, he was already able to form eight
hundred pill runes. No matter how confident Gilbert was in himself, all he could do was barely form three hundred
pill runes.
Most of them present were not even at Gilbert’s level, let alone Grayson’s.
Furthermore, Grayson had only learned the Way of the Pill for a very short time. He had done all of that in just a
year.
His talent for alchemy would be incredibly favored even in a sixth-grade clan.
Rosefinch Pavilion might have a good relationship with the Middle Province Alchemist Alliance, but it was still not to
the degree where they would just give away their treasured disciple.
No one standing there was an idiot.
They had naturally found the happenings of that day incredibly strange. Elder Turner could naturally see what they
were talking about, but nothing could be read from his expression.

When the discussions below started to die down, Elder Turner said, “The students we are recruiting today are
different from those before. The students we recruit today will be heavily nurtured by the Middle Province Alchemist
Alliance, and you won’t have to leave your current positions.
The moment those words were spoken, Everyone present gaped. Even the leaders of the students all had widened
eyes and expressions of disbelief.
Chapter 2442 Jackie raised an eyebrow. It was obvious from the vice treasurer’s expression that he had not known
about it at all.
Other than Zayne and Constance, everyone had looks of shock on their faces.
To not have to discard their current positions and still receive the Middle Province Alchemist Alliance’s resources.
It was both good news for the student and the forces behind the student.
It was the same as the alliance basically raising someone else’s child for them.
No one would have believed such a good deal existed if they had not heard it themselves.
Jackie frowned as he looked at the elder suspiciously. Even though it sounded like a good thing, Jackie knew very
well that no one ever willingly gave up their own benefits for the sake of others, let alone a group like that.
The Middle Province Alchemist Alliance must have its own reasons for doing so.
Elder Horst let out a small cough to quiet everyone down. Everyone’s discussions died down as Elder Horst raised
his hand.
Elder Horst smiled and said, “I know what you’ re all trying to guess. In truth, there’s no need to guess anything at
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmall. The alliance is in a bit of trouble, and we need the help of some masters. That’s why we asked everyone to
gather here!”
Elder Horst’s words were vague. It did nothing to reduce the suspicious looks on everyone’s faces.
Elder Horst continued to say, “You don’t have to worry, This matter won’t involve all of you too much. It’s an
alliance secret.”
“When the time comes, you’ll find out naturally. All you need to know is that this matter won’t affect you
negatively.”
After that, Elder Horst turned around.
The servants behind him pulled over a chair for him to sit in.
After Elder Horst sat on the chair, he looked at everyone present with a sharp look.
He could tell that his words had done nothing to reduce the suspicion and confusion.
He looked up and said again, “The way we’ll be choosing the disciples will be very simple. All you need to do is
prove your talent and skill. It doesn’t matter how you prove it. We just want to choose the best five.”
Even the testing was not uniform? Jackie felt like it was even more strange after he heard that.
Normally, tests should always be universal. Only with uniformed tests could the truly strong and weak be
determined.
He turned to look at everyone else. Even though everyone had varying expressions, no one was as suspicious as
Jackie. It seemed like nobody felt that Elder Horst’s words were that strange.
It seemed like he understood far too little of the alchemist profession. After all, he might have been an alchemist in
Daxia, but he had never picked up that status ever since He came to the Hestia Continent.
His understanding of the Hestia Continent’s alchemists was only at the surface level.
Elder Horst coughed softly and said, “I’ll give you fifteen minutes to think about how you’re going to prove your
skills and talents. After that, the test will begin.”
