The two girls were surprised to see Lin Fan’s sudden appearance, but they were also unhappy with the way he doubted them.

Yuki spoke first as she said with pouty lips, “We properly held back, why are you doubting us?”

Lin Fan looked at her with a raised brow and said, “That doesn’t answer the question.”

Angela then said in a slightly cold voice, “Child Soul Realm.”

Lin Fan heard this and let out a sigh of relief before feeling a chill run down his spine.

He had made a mistake.

In his panic over worrying about whether the two of them could hold back, he had blurted out this question without caring about their feelings.

Hearing the cold voice from Angela, he knew that he was in trouble, but he also knew that there was only one way to calm her down.

With a bitter smile, he turned to the waiter and said, “Can you give me your biggest bowl and load it up with your top flavours. Don’t worry about the cost, just give me the best that you have.”

Hearing this, both Angela and Yuki’s eyes lit up.

Angela looked at Lin Fan with a cold look again before giving him a nod to show that she forgave him.

Lin Fan let out a sigh of relief at that before turning to Xiao Tu.

He saw that she looked much more confident compared to when he first met her as she happily ate the ice cream with Angela and Yuki.

But when she noticed that he was looking at her, she suddenly lowered her head.

Lin Fan revealed a bitter smile at this and said, “You don’t have to be afraid of me. Just treat me like you would treat your big sisters.”

Xiao Tu looked up slightly and gave a nod before saying, “Un, the big sisters really are amazing.”

Lin Fan gave a nod in response and patted her on the head.

When he did, Xiao Tu jolted before lowering her head again. He wasn’t able to see it, but there was a blush that had appeared on her cheeks along with a faint smile on her lips.

When Lin Fan saw this, he couldn’t help giving a sigh.

It seemed like Xiao Tu hadn’t opened up to him as much as she had to the girls. But this wasn’t something that could be forced since he was different from the girls in the end.

Girls had an easier time opening up to other girls and they had a harder time opening up to guys.

This was just a relationship that had to be built up over time.

However, Angela suddenly gave a soft snort before taking Xiao Tu away from Lin Fan.

Lin Fan was confused when this happened since he didn’t understand why she was acting like this.

Then when he tried to have a taste of the ice cream, he had his hand slapped away with the spoon that Angela was holding.

So Lin Fan could only sit there with an aggrieved look on his face as he watched them eating the ice cream, not knowing what he had done wrong.

…

The next morning, their group headed back to the Alchemy King Hall branch for the second round of the exam.

Lin Fan’s group had been in Frost City for a while now, so there was no need for Xiao Tu to guide them anymore, but they still had Xiao Tu guide them. Rather, it was more like Angela and Yuki wouldn’t let her escape…

So she had no choice but to go with them to the Alchemy King Hall branch.

It was even worse when Lin Fan and Yuki went off to take their exam. At that point, Xiao Tu was left to the grasps of Angela.

She was forced to sit in Angela’s lap while in the stand.

There were plenty of people who glared at her with looks of disdain, but they were all chased off by the chill from Angela’s glare.

In the waiting room, the reception that Lin Fan and Yuki received from the other examinees was completely different.

Lin Fan was treated normally without anyone taking any extra looks at him.

But when it came to Yuki, they all looked at her with pensive looks filled with fear.

They all knew about what she had done yesterday, but since the Alchemy King Hall hadn’t done anything, even going as far as praising her, it was clear that they couldn’t say anything about her.

They just hoped that they weren’t in the same round as her because if she did the same thing as yesterday, they were certain that they wouldn’t be able to resist it.

They were afraid that anyone who took the exam with her was certain to fail.

So they were all praying that they weren’t in the same round as her.

They had arrived early, so the listing hadn’t been made yet. When it came out, there were both sighs of relief and disappointed groans that rang out.

The surprising thing for Lin Fan and Yuki was that they had been placed in very different groups.

Lin Fan would be in the very first group while Yuki was placed in the very last group.

It was almost as if they were trying to keep the two of them apart…

But no matter what the Alchemy King Hall had planned with this, it wasn’t something that mattered to Lin Fan or Yuki. They were certain that they would pass this exam since their level of alchemy far surpassed the level needed to pass.

It was as easy as taking candy from a baby for them to pass.𝗈𝗏𝔩xt.𝑐𝑂𝔪

What they wanted to do was completely different from what everyone else wanted.

Since Lin Fan was in the first round, it didn’t take long before he was called to the stage.

It was the same as the first round, he was brought to a station in the arena where there were ingredients and a recipe prepared for him.

Everything was the same, but this time they were told that this was a pill of medium difficulty. Unlike the pill recipe that they received before, this would be much harder for them to refine.

However, as soon as Lin Fan saw the recipe that he had been given, he couldn’t help revealing a faint smile.

This pill recipe could be considered a medium difficulty pill for these examinees, but it was among one of the hardest medium difficulty pills there was. That was because this pill had many special things that one had to pay attention to to successfully refine it.

In terms of actual skills needed, it was no different from one of the hard difficulty pills.

But this was something that Lin Fan was happy to see since he could tell that this was deliberately done.

It wasn’t someone targeting him like the young master had done with Yuki, but rather, this was something that had been deliberately done by the Alchemy King Hall branch that ran the exam.

It wasn’t that they were targeting Lin Fan, trying to make him fail this exam. Rather, it meant that they had their eyes on him and wanted to see his true abilities.

This was what Lin Fan was trying to do with the pill that he had refined yesterday.

He could even feel the head referee from yesterday sitting in a hidden corner staring at him, as if he was watching his every move.

Since that was the case, he would give them a show.

Lin Fan picked up the ingredients and casually threw them into his cauldron along with his flame.

This had been done so casually that many people even doubted him. They thought that he was someone who had been lucky to pass the first round and this was where he would be eliminated.

But those that had sharp senses would be able to feel the strange feeling that was coming from the cauldron in front of Lin Fan.

It wasn’t the bursting of energy that came from losing control of the cauldron and causing an explosion, but there was a strong energy that came from the cauldron that seemed like it would burst at any time. The strange part of it was that this strong energy seemed to be spinning.

Again and again, it spun for a total of nine times before finally stopping.

At that point, Lin Fan also pulled back his hand as he stopped supplying the cauldron with flames.

Once the flames in the cauldron disappeared, the temperature inside the cauldron returned to normal before slowly opening to reveal the pill that was made.

Once the pill was revealed, the head referee immediately came over to look at the pill.

It was different from before where his face was filled with shock since he already had experience, but he still couldn’t hide the surprised look on his face.

After a moment of silence, he looked at Lin Fan and said, “You pass.”

Lin Fan gave a nod and headed back to the waiting area.

Because he didn’t use flashy techniques, everyone thought that he had been lucky and received an easy recipe. Which was why when he headed off, there were even people who looked at him with looks of disdain.

Then when it was Yuki’s turn, everyone became excited.

After what happened yesterday, Yuki had already gained quite the reputation.

Since she had already used the Concentration Purification Technique, she had no choice but to use it again today to the chagrin of her fellow examinees.

In the end, she was the only who passed just like the first round.
