Jade Dragon Swordsman
The pill refining exam

Hyun Zi was very sad, he felt that his father did not love him, and only loved his brother Hyun Micha.

The mother never came to find out how she is now, when the punishment for her will take place.

Hyun Zi's cry finally broke upon seeing elder Hyun Joong come to visit him.

"Grandfather.., why didn't my family come to see me, not if tomorrow was the day I would be exiled in the middle of nowhere.

Grandpa, I want to ask you one thing, are my father and mother not my biological parents?" ask Hyun Zi.

"Why are you asking me that?" elder Hyun Joong said, asking.

"I felt the difference between me and my sister regarding the affection of my parents, my father and mother loved Hyun Micha more than me and it looked very real at all times," replied Hyun Zi.

"Maybe it's time you found out the truth, you're not really my son Hyun Xi zu and his wife.

You're a son of an imperial nobleman who was robbed. Your biological father and mother have long died and I alone discovered you when you were only 3 years old.

Not wanting you to die in vain, I, who was then still the head of the heavenly sect, decided to take care of you through my son and his wife.

Zi'er even though you have no blood ties from my family, but you have been considered my own granddaughter, I love you more than Hyun Micha because your brother has gained more affection from both parents.

Right now I cannot absolve you of punishment, as all the rules and decisions of the heavenly sect are held absolutely by my son as the sect leader.

Although I can't help you escape punishment, but I can still provide you with provisions in your seclusion, these are god's beans made from various resources, he said, even if it's just as small as rice but if you eat one grain, then you'll feel full a day a night.

Take these god beans as your provisions if you find it difficult to find food in your exile," said Elder Hyun Joong as he gave a container containing thousands of God's beans.

"Grandfather thanks, I am so grateful to have a grandfather who loves me so much and cares for me, again I thank you," said Hyun Zi.

"You be patient, in your seclusion you will find a way out to return to the world, follow your heart and do not despair, slow down to learn the pattern back to this place.

Zi'er, this is the dewdrop sword, the sword that is the legacy of my dead wife, this sword I gave to you along with the ancient book which is the legendary sword technique of wind mastery. Practice diligently there because the methods in this ancient book, can make you break through the level of the sacred realm and surely you will match the level of power that your brother has today.

And one more thing, I'll give you a protective artifact that's my favorite. This protective artifact can keep you safe if you're inside the artifact bubble you've activated.

Inside this sky artifact bubble you can also feel comfortable inside, as this celestial artifact can stabilize the air temperature if you are inside there.

"Thank you grandfather for all these gifts" Hyun Zi said, hugging his grandfather.

*****

The next day, the higher-ups and members of the heavenly sect had gathered in the front yard of the sect, to see Hyun Zi's departure in serving his sentence.

the sect master opened a gate connecting him to the uninhabited realm, which Hyun Zi would enter in his seclusion.

"Dad, mother, sister, I'm leaving." said Hyun Zi.

No sound came out of the mouths of the three of them, all because of the shame Hyun Zi gave to the Hyun family, to make the three of them choose to silence and only elder Hyun Joong came and gave his spirit to Hyun Zi.

"I'm sure one day you will definitely return" said elder Hyun Joong.

"Grandfather's thanks" Hyun Zi replied.

The sadness Hyun Zi felt solidified his steps towards his seclusion. "I will definitely come back again, and by then you will still be my family," Hyun Zi's inner self then entered the portal gate and disappeared.

While Nien Chu had arrived before the gates of the holy moon Academy palace, magnificent buildings were emblazoned before Nien Chu with towering fences surrounding the buildings.

"It's a magnificent palace of this academy, and I think the master teachers who teach inside this academy are the strong cultivators that the living pearl empire has," Inner Nien Chu.

"You!, do you want to take part in the student selection?" asked one of the senior disciples who had come over to Nien Chu.

"Right, I came to participate in the selection of new disciples," Nien Chu replied.

"If so, come with me" said the senior disciple.

Nien Chu followed the senior disciples behind him, and they arrived at a place where many participants would register as new students in the palace of the holy month academy.

"There are so many participants who want to study Alchemists in the palace of the holy month academy, and that is!, not that Wang tianyang and his younger brother Wang ze, are, it turned out that the two of them had also participated in the selection of becoming new students in this academy, "inner Nien Chu.

Elsewhere, Wang ze who saw Nien Chu at that place, immediately whispered something in his brother's ear. "Sister, the person we hunted turned out to be also participating in the selection of disciples here," he whispered.

"I knew of his whereabouts before you told me, just let it be impossible for us to teach him a lesson here" Wang Tianyang replied.

"Well brother, I will wait until there is a chance to destroy it" said Wang ze.

On the main podium, had stood a white-robed old man with all the hair on his body had whitened all.

"Welcome to the palace of the Holy Moon Academy, introduce my name Yuan Haiking, I am the head of the holy moon palace academy.

I deliberately sought out great talents from all the great empires that existed, in order to become a great Alchemist in the future.

There were 3 criteria tested to become a disciple in the palace of the holy month academy, the first one a disciple had possessed a power level realm above the soul realm, the second one had indeed possessed the talent of an alchemist, the third one had the ability in mastering the basic techniques of pill refining, and could also regulate the temperature of the flames if it did pill refining, the third one had the ability to master the basic techniques of pill refining, and was also able to regulate the temperature of the flames if it did pill refining, if you already have that talent then you can all compete to become new students in the holy moon palace academy," said the head of Yuan hiking with applause from the participants who will follow the selection of new students.

A master teacher suddenly appeared before all the participants, and the master teacher said. "I am the Taoist teacher Bao who is a strength level realm coach, I will test the realm of strength of all of you, I will test the realm of strength, and I want the one named to come forward to channel his pure energy into this jade tower as proof" said elder Tao Bao as he pointed towards the large tower nearby.

"If the jade tower was red then he had been at the spirit level realm, and could take the next new disciple examination.

If it was yellow then he was in the Realm realm and could certainly take the next new disciple examination.

If it is gold colored he is in the emperor realm, and the color white means that he has broken through the holy realm and has been confirmed if the owner of the power level in the holy realm is a genius who is entitled to take the next exam.

Now I will mention the names of the names that have registered randomly, and will test the realm of the tiers they have.

Wang ze and Wang tianyang, step up the two of you and test to where the realm of the strength level of the two of you is" said elder Tao Bao.

Wang ze and Wang tianyang directly climbed onto the podium, the two of them were directly faced with the jade tower that was before him.

Without hesitation the two of them brought his right palm closer to the surface of the pillar, then drained their respective pure energies.

A yellow colored light shot out from within the jade pillar where Wang ze was, and a white light shot out from within the jade pillar where Wang tianyang was.

All of the master teachers who witnessed the incident were so amazed by Wang tianyang, with such a young age he had broken through to the realm of the sacred level, not necessarily can be done by young people and their peers.

"It is only fitting that he can defeat me so easily, because Wang tianyang has been at the level of the sacred realm," Inner Nien Chu.

Suddenly the voice of the heavenly fire core that was within the Nien Chu Dantian said. "You must not be discouraged, the abilities of the young cultivators in the living pearl empire are indeed so high compared to the other empires in this realm, all of that was because the living light empire had many strong cultivators in the field of Alchemists, which made it easier for young cultivators to obtain useful resources for the enhancement of the realm of tiers, but it can also be a scourge for all of them, because when a cultivator finds an opponent on the same level, they will definitely find difficulty in the fight, because all of that is caused by the difference in quality between increasing power with various resources, and increasing strength in a natural way," said the heavenly core fire.

Nien Chu now realized that all the young cultivators in the living light empire could increase strength quickly, all because they had consumed a wide variety of resources in increasing strength, so that they were able to break through an unusual level of strength.

Suddenly the voice of Taoist elder Bao called out the name Nien Chu and Jade's daughter, to test the realm of the two of them on the podium.

Nien Chu rose to the top of the podium in the jade princess after him, then the two of them similarly performed a test on the jade pillar.

"Nien Chu you must not use all your strength in the testing on the jade pillar, try to only be in the spirit realm all of it for your good," said the heavenly core flame suddenly arrived.

"Why teacher" asked Nien Chu.

Your current strength has been at the level of the Realm realm, but with the presence of a double Dantian in your body makes your strength increase by 2 times, then the light that will come out from within the jade pillar will be golden if you channel all of your pure energy into this jade pillar, which means that you have broken through to the Emperor realm.

When the treasure hunt of the previous emperor in the sky pavilion, you will be in trouble because the saint realm cultivators will target the emperor realm cultivators to annihilate, in order to reduce the disciples who would look for treasure in the hunt.

If you look like you're still in the spirit realm, then they'll be trifling you and not so afraid you'll get the treasure you're targeting, so you can freely search for the treasure there," answer the heavenly fire core.

"Good teacher, I will follow your advice" said Nien Chu.

Shortly after, the pillar of pure energy in front of Nien Chu, now emitted a red color which meant that Nien Chu was currently at the spirit realm level.

Elder Tao Bao announced the results of the testing on the podium.

"Nien Chu is at the spirit level realm and the jade princess is at the sacred realm, they both deserve to qualify for the next session" said elder Tao Bao.

Nien Chu got off the podium and walked out of the crowd of participants who had not yet taken the test, to just get some fresh air there. meanwhile, on the podium back other participants in the level realm test.

The final results of the level domain testing were announced, there were 60 participants from all over the empire who managed to escape.

This time the escaped participants were allowed to temporarily stay in the palace of the holy month academy, to continue the test test that would happen tomorrow that was to purify the pills by controlling the temperature of the flames.

60 Participants lived in rooms that have been provided, with the quality of rooms that are quite luxurious and elegant so as to make the participants comfortable living in it.

That night Nien Chu could not sleep, he chose to go out of the room that had a garden there.

"Sir Nien Chu!!" the voice of a woman calling her name.

Nien Chu turned his face towards the source of the voice, and found a woman walking towards him.

"Daughter Zeng Yi, you're here too!?" greet Nien Chu.

"So sister, I passed the level realm testing test, I managed to break through the spirit level realm just like you," princess Zeng Yi said with a sweet smile.

"Good, I'm glad to hear that. Princess how are you prepared for the exam tomorrow?" asked Nien Chu.

"Sister Nien Chu, from my childhood I have loved the field of Alchemists so much that I studied a lot to the Alchemists in the dragon light empire, and to face the test tomorrow for me there is no problem. What about your own?" princess Zeng Yi asked.

"Tomorrow is the last testing day to be able to qualify to become a new student at the Academy palace of the holy month, and hopefully luck will be on my side tomorrow," Nien Chu replied humbly.

"What's? brother Nien Chu is just relying on luck in the exam tomorrow?

"Yes.." Nien Chu replied briefly.

It sounded******** the length that came out of the mouth of princess Zeng Yi, upon hearing Nien Chu's reply.

"Hopefully luck is on your side, brother. Oh yes.., brother Zeng Wu sends you a greeting, he is currently in the branch of the trade union that is in this empire, and Brother Zeng Wu will return back to the region to the dragon light range after I can qualify to be a student in this academy," said princess Zeng Yi.

"If the 3rd prince is still here, I will meet him tomorrow" Nien Chu said.

The conversation between the two of them continued, but suddenly the voice of the woman stopped the conversation between princess Zeng Yi and Nien Chu.

"I didn't expect that my sister would be that stupid to love you and defend you to death while in Nien Chu's heavenly sect, you're here very friendly with a beautiful young woman, while my sister is serving the punishment that the sect has given that is being exiled somewhere without occupants, it is all because of you...!!" yuk Hyun Micha.

"What do you mean Miss Hyun Micha?" asked Nien Chu.

"Ha.ha.ha.., you don't pretend to be stupid Nien Chu, deliberately not knowing what my sister Hyun Zi experienced as a result of inviting you to the Heavenly Sect," Hyun Micha replied.

"I don't know what Hyun Zi is going through" Nien Chu said with a serious face.

"I explain to you, the sect rules are forbidden for a young woman to bring a young man into the Heavenly sect if she is not a future husband or close relative. If it violates then the woman must be prepared for the law by being exiled somewhere without occupants for 5 years, and to my knowledge if a woman is punished by exile, he said, then the woman will disappear and will never be heard from again" Hyun Micha explained.

Nien Chu was silent, he was reminded of the words of the heavenly sect head who said that elder Hyun Joong had betrothed him to Hyun Xi, but at that time Nien Chu refused the match.

"It was only when I realized why Chairman Hyun Xi zu was so angry when I rejected his daughter, that it turned out to be a punishment to Hyun Zi if I refused the match," Nien Chu said.

Princess Zeng Yi was confused by the conversation Nien Chu and the woman he had just met, so she asked Nien Chu.

"What really happened sis, if the heavenly sect dares to act like you then I will report it to sis Zeng Wu, so that the sect is eliminated from the living pearl empire," said Princess Zeng Yi who deliberately raised her voice to be heard by the new woman.

Hyun Micha ignited her emotions with the words of the young lady who was together with Nien Chu, who wanted to eliminate the heavenly sect from the living pearl empire.

The unsheathed sword was directed at Princess Zeng Yi, saying. "Who are you thus daring to eliminate the heavenly sect from this empire!!" yuk Hyun Micha.

"You heard well well, I am the daughter of emperor Zeng Gong of the dragon light empire which is the second largest empire after the pheonix empire, after the pheonix empire, and it's very easy for me to eliminate the Heavenly Sect if you dare to be arrogant to me" said princess Zeng Yi.

"Oh.., it turns out that there is a spoiled princess who is following the selection of new students in the palace of the Holy Moon Academy, both for the time being I relented because you have the power," hyun Micha replied by leaving the place.

Inside his room, Hyun Micha held back anger over what the emperor's daughter of dragon light had done to him, and he promised inwardly that he would kill the princess as the previous emperor's treasure hunt progressed.

"I want you to pass the test tomorrow, so that I can kill you in the sky pavilion" Hyun Micha's inner self squeezed out his fist.

After Hyun Micha left, Nien Chu invited Zeng Yi's daughter to rest because it was late at night.

"Daughter we better rest because it's late at night" said Nien Chu.

"But brother I want to hear your explanation about the woman, and I hope you will explain it to me" replied Princess Zeng Yi.

"Daughter, for the time being I can't explain it to you because it's late at night, I want to prepare myself for tomorrow's test, and I hope you will understand it" said Nien Chu.

"All right, brother, have a good rest" replied princess Zeng Yi.

After Nien Chu's departure, princess Zeng Yi sat in the garden alone thinking of the woman named Hyun Zi who was being punished and exiled somewhere by the heavenly sect.

"It seems that Brother Nien Chu feels very guilty for the incident that happened to Hyun Zi, and I see clearly the change in his face, I'm sure that Brother Nien Chu is currently thinking about that woman," inner princess Zeng Yi with jealousy on her face.

"Ah., what am I thinking of that brother Nien Chu with that woman named Hyun Zi, for, me and Brother Nien Chu have had nothing to do but a colleague in the trade union, but somehow my heart does not accept that Brother Nien Chu is with Hyun Zi, what is this?, I better rest maybe this feeling that comes to me is because I have less rest, "inner Zeng Yi and go straight to his room.

Inside Nien Chu's room felt guilty because of the punishment Hyun Zi received all because of him. "I'll go look for you after I've managed to obtain one of the relics of the previous living Pearl Emperor, inside the treasure hunt that the Academy palace would hold holy month for the new disciple who passed the test tomorrow," Inner Nien Chu then laid himself in bed and fell asleep.

The next day, 60 new disciples were in a large hall, in a large room they were faced with a furnace, and various kinds of resources that have been pre-rooted by the organizing committee.

Elder Tao Bao stood in the middle of all of them, accompanied by some of the academy's higher-ups who would monitor the course of the exam that day, so as not to cheat during the exam.

"Which is before you all a purification furnace, all of you will make a wound healing pill from the ingredients that are near the refining furnace.

At least you can concoct a wound healing pill with a level 1 purity so that you can qualify to become new students in this academy, and if all of you can concoct a pill of level 2 purity, then I will award a tier 1 Alchemist badge to you who managed to do so," said the Taoist elder Bao who was greeted by a standing ovation by the examinees that day.

"Since all of you are ready for the pill refining exam today, then I say this exam begins and the pill making time will last for 1 hour from now," said elder Zi Zhi who is the vice-chairman of 2.

Hearing if the exam that day had begun then all the participants who were inside the large room, began to carry out activities in refining medicinal pills.

The beginning of the beginning there is no obstacle for the participants in conducting purification by using fire and regulated with a certain temperature, but after all the ingredients had entered the refining furnace and half an hour had passed, some of the participants started to fidget as the refining they were doing started to get in trouble. From setting the temperature too hot to causing the furnace to churn, and some are hesitant to carry out purification until the temperature setting becomes low, which makes the purified medicinal ingredients not undergo a major change, he said, so that makes them become confused and burn the furnace with excessive high temperatures, and in the end all the resources in the furnace become charred and destroyed.

One by one the participants began to fall due to the resources they purified scorched and no longer useful, some also made the furnace cracked due to the high temperature of the fire they did.

Now there were 40 participants who were still refining pills, and one of them was Nien Chu.

The remaining time was only another 20 minutes, suddenly two people stood up for having successfully carried out pill refining, he was Prince Erlang Wang, from the beast empire, and a young boy named Ming lie from the ming sect centered in the imperial territory of Pheonix.

The two youngsters handed the results of refining the pills he had done, to the team of pill purity level testers.

Elder Tao Bao and elder Zi Zhi were so amazed by the achievements made by the two youngsters, as they had both been able to concoct a wound healing pill, with a level 3 refining level.

Before long one by one the examinees had successfully carried out pill refining, and one of them was Princess Zeng Yi.

Meanwhile Nien Chu still continued to carry out pill refining with the few remaining participants, until 50 minutes passed Nien Chu still had not also managed to do pill refining.

Princess Zeng Yi was so extremely agitated at the sight of it, she desperately hoped that Nien Chu could carry out pill refining like her, and be able to qualify to become a new disciple in the palace of the Holy Moon Academy.

"Come brother Nien Chu You can definitely do that purification" said princess Zeng Yi as she looked towards the increasingly reduced hourglass.

Now there was Nien Chu who was still refining pills, and the remaining time was only 5 minutes.

"Teacher, help me!!" inner Nien Chu.

"Nien Chu added the heat of the fire to make the temperature inside the furnace even hotter, and you should not reduce the heat of the fire because the success in making the pill depends on the heat of the fire you made it," answer the heavenly fire core.

And before long the refining furnace exploded, until black smoke came out of the furnace as the time left to do the test that day.

Nien Chu took a deep breath looking at the black smoke coming out from within his refining furnace, meanwhile the Taoist leader Bao and elder Zi Zhi could only shake their heads looking at the results of the refining done by Nien Chu.

Nien Chu took out 6 pills from inside the furnace onto the container that had been prepared by the previous organizing committee, and brought the black and unattractive pill towards the elders who were testing the success rate of pill refining.

Princess Zeng Yi was only speechless when she saw Nien Chu carrying the charred pill towards the elders who were testing the refining level of the pill.

"Patience Brother Nien Chu, maybe today you failed, but I am sure if your failure today will be your success in the future," said Princess Zeng Yi.

Meanwhile the 23 participants who had managed to concoct a wound healing pill said, laughing heartily at Nien Chu carrying the charred pill towards the pill purity level examiner elders, to them what Nien Chu did was a ridiculous thing, and laughed at the end of the pill refining exam that day.

"This elder is the result of refining the pill I did, and I want the eldest to examine it," Nien Chu said.

"We don't have to check it, because the pills you're carrying are scorching all and have no benefit at all" replied one of the pill purity tester elders.

"But elder, wouldn't it be more fair for me if you were to check out this pill I made," Nien Chu said.

Seeing the debate, Taoist elder Bao and elder Zi Zhi came over to the pill purity tester elders while saying. "I want you to examine the pills that the young man has made, so that he is satisfied with the results of his purification" he said.

The two pill purity tester elders, followed what elder Tao Bao said by taking one of the black-colored pills from Nien Chu's container, he said, it then tested its purity level by channeling pure energy into the pill.

The pill purity tester elder was so shocked by the pill he tested, the black color of the pill was not a charred but a black-colored crust that wrapped the pill.

After the crust cracked and disappeared due to the testing conducted by the elders of the pill purity testing, so it appears a bright white pill with fiber on its surface that indicates if the pill is a high-quality pill.

The examiner elder grabbed the pill and studied it even deeper, then it appeared to him that the pill was a level 7 quality pill.

The elders did not expect that there was a young man capable of doing so, who was able to purify a pill with a purity level of level 7 that he was not necessarily able to do.

The elder of the examiners also approached Tao elder Bao and elder Zi Zhi, as the person in charge of the pill refining exam that was carried out.

"Elder, that young man was able to concoct a pill with a purity level of level 7, which only a super genius Alchemist can do at such a young age," whispered the pill purity-testing elder.

"Did I not hear wrong? and have you checked the pills as thoroughly as possible?" ask the Taoist elder Bao.

"We the testing team has examined it many times and the results remain the same, the pill that the youngster made was indeed a level 7 purity pill," the pill purity testing elder replied.

"News of the young man's success in making a level 7 purity pill should not be leaked, because he would definitely be hunted by the great Alchemists in this realm, to be made his disciple.

I'm going to meet Chief Yuan hiking to discuss this matter. Elder Zi Zhi I want you to announce if the youngster passed the pill refining exam, and announce also if the 25 disciples who have successfully carried out the pill refining, are, has become a new student of the holy moon academy palace," said elder Tao Bao.

"Okay elders, I will announce as you say," replied elder Zi Zhi.

After the departure of elder Tao Bao to meet the chief of Yuan hiking, elder Zi Zhi took over his position as the person in charge of the pill refining examination.

Chairman Zi Zhi stood in the middle of the examinees and said. "Nien Chu you passed the pill refining examination, and to the examinees who have succeeded in the examination this time, then from today on you are the new students in the palace of the holy moon academy, and for the participants who have not succeeded in the exam this time, can register next year to take the admission exam for new students at the palace of the holy month academy," said elder Zi Zhi.

"Sir..!! it is a fraud for us, Nien Chu made a pill that is not useful because the pill he made is charred, but why would he be able to pass the pill refining exam? if he uses money to commit fraud then we can do it, we are not ordinary people but the sons and daughters of the people who are, so we can also do as Nien Chu did!" said one of the participants who was very disappointed with the results of the pill refining exam.

"Design!!, how dare you say that to the palace of the Holy Moon Academy, we have here examined the pills made by Nien Chu, and the results were quite satisfactory for us examiners, too, then he deserves us to get away with it," said the pill purity tester elder.

"We have decided on the results of the test this time, and all of that is inviolable again," said elder Zi Zhi.

Hearing the words of elder Zi Zhi, the disciples who had not passed the pill refining exam left the large room with a sense of disappointment, holding back, they all did not expect that the test they had conducted had been filled with cheating by a young man named Nien Chu.

Princess Zeng Yi sprinted towards Nien Chu and said. "Sister Nien Chu survived yes because you have successfully refined pills and become a disciple in the palace of the holy month academy," he said.

"Daughter thank you, I also congratulate you on your success in pill making and becoming a disciple in the palace of the holy month academy, Nien Chu replied.

The two of us have succeeded in the exam this time around, and out there my brother the 3rd Prince must have been waiting for the happy news of our success in this pill refining exam," said Princess Zeng Yi while holding Nien Chu's hand to get out of the large room.
