Chapter 596: Chapter 596: Preliminary Selection of the Empire
News of Yang Xiaotian passing the Medicine God examination quickly spread, causing a stir in the Linyuan Imperial Capital.
Not long after Yang Xiaotian passed the Medicine God examination, the people from the Peng Family finally arrived at the Linyuan Imperial Capital.
Peng Fei, looking at the Imperial Capital before him, couldn’t help feeling emotional, “We’ve finally arrived.”
However, when the Peng Family entered the Imperial Capital, they found that the streets and alleys were abuzz with excited discussions about some Medicine Hall examination.
Peng Fei felt curious and sent an elder of the Peng Family to inquire about what exactly was going on.
Soon, that elder returned, but his expression was extremely complex.
...
Peng Fei, seeing the elder’s strange expression, couldn’t help but ask, “Did you find out what happened?”
The elder hesitated for a moment before responding, “People are talking, they say that today an eighteen-year-old youth passed the Medicine God examination!”
“What, eighteen years old, passed the Medicine God examination!” Peng Fei, Peng Hui, and all the Peng Family elites were exceptionally shocked.
“How is that possible! Could it be a rumor?” Peng Lin, the Medicine Son of the Peng Family, couldn’t restrain himself from saying.
Because it was too hard to believe.
“It’s true,” the elder hesitated, then said, “That youth’s name is Yang Xiaotian.”
“Yang, Yang Xiaotian?!” Peng Fei, Peng Hui, and all the experts of the Peng Family’s eyes widened in disbelief.
“You said, what is that youth’s name?” Peng Hui still found it hard to believe.
“Named Yang Xiaotian!” The elder took a deep breath, knowing that the family head and the old family head were skeptical, and said, “I’ve inquired and confirmed it carefully, it was Peng Long the Ancestor and Young Master Yang who went together to the Medicine Hall for the examination, the same person!”
The same person!
Peng Fei, Peng Hui were trembling all over.
The elder continued, “It’s said that Qi Tian Medicine God His Excellency came to the Imperial Capital, he just happened to be in the Medicine Hall and presided over the examination for Young Master Yang, and Yang Xiaotian passed the six-star, seven-star, eight-star, and nine-star Pharmacist examinations in succession!”
“Six-star, seven-star, eight-star evaluations are all miracles!”
“Nine-star Pharmacist examination evaluation is a Divine Miracle!”
Peng Hui stammered, “Nine-star Pharmacist examination, evaluated as a Divine Miracle?!”
“Yes, Young Master Yang refined a God-Breaking Pill that received the protection of the gods!” When the elder spoke of the gods’ protection, his voice trembled a bit.
“Protection of the gods! Divine Protection!” Peng Fei was in a daze.
After a long while, Peng Fei abruptly exclaimed to the heavens, “Long’er has put in so much thought, it’s I who have been muddleheaded!”
Previously, his son Peng Long pleaded with him to use all the resources of the Peng Family to cultivate Yang Xiaotian, and he thought his son was bewitched, but now he finally understood his son’s painstaking intentions.
Putting aside whether Yang Xiaotian can take first place in the battle for godhood in the future, the mere fact that Yang Xiaotian at eighteen was able to refine a God-Breaking Pill with Divine Protection was enough reason for the Peng Family to use all their resources to build a good relationship with Yang Xiaotian.
“Prepare the most substantial tribute, take out the treasures of our Peng Family, I want to personally visit and apologize to Young Master Yang!” Peng Fei told his son Peng Hui with the most serious tone.
The treasures of the Peng Family?
Peng Hui’s heart trembled, then he nodded and said, “Yes, Father!”
At this moment, at the branch of the Sword God Hall, the second disciple of the Sword God, Wang Yang, was practicing his swordsmanship in the courtyard. Hearing the commotion outside the main hall, he stopped his cultivation and went out to investigate.
No sooner had he reached the main hall than he heard many disciples of the Sword God Hall discussing, “Eighteen years old, refined a God-Breaking Pill guarded by the gods, passed the Medicine God examination, it’s simply unbelievable!”
“Qi Tian Medicine God personally invited Yang Xiaotian to join the Pharmacist Hall of Zhongtian Continent!”
Wang Yang was startled upon hearing this and stuttered, “What were you just saying? Yang Xiaotian passed the Medicine God examination?”
Seeing that it was Wang Yang, the disciples of the Sword God Hall hastened to salute and then replied, “Yes, Lord Wang Yang, today an eighteen-year-old youth named Yang Xiaotian passed the Medicine God examination at the Pharmacist Hall in our Linyuan Imperial Capital!”
“Becoming the youngest Medicine God of our Zhongtian Continent!”
“This matter has already spread, it’s said that even Heavenly Monarch Xiao has been alerted.”
Wang Yang was greatly shaken.
Eighteen years old, Medicine God!
If this were to reach Heavenly Court, not just Heavenly Monarch Xiao, even the Great Beginning Heavenly Emperor would be startled, wouldn’t he!
Wang Yang swallowed and asked, “Is he really at the peak of the third layer of the Saint Realm?”
Updated from freewёbnoνel.com.
“Yes, Lord Wang Yang, he is at the peak of the third layer of the Saint Realm.” The disciple from the Sword God Hall hurriedly replied.
However, they were puzzled, Lord Wang Yang had always been practicing swordsmanship in the courtyard, so how did he know that Yang Xiaotian was at the peak of the third layer of the Saint Realm.
Upon hearing these words, Wang Yang’s smile turned bitter.
Just yesterday, he had not only helped the youngest Medicine God of the Zhongtian Continent cut in line for registration, but he had also swindled him out of one hundred thousand inferior Spirit Stones.
Thinking of this, Wang Yang couldn’t help but stamp his feet and beat his chest, “Damn it!”
If he had known earlier that the young man would become the youngest Medicine God of the Zhongtian Continent the next day, he wouldn’t have dared to take those one hundred thousand inferior Spirit Stones.
If his master found out, he’d probably skin him alive.
After Yang Xiaotian passed the Nine-Star Alchemist examination, the Qi Tian Medicine God personally awarded Yang Xiaotian with the Nine-Star Pharmacist robe and the Nine-Star Pharmacist medal.
The Nine-Star Pharmacist robe was made of extremely fine material, primarily in purple with gold trim, radiating an air of nobility.
And the Nine-Star Pharmacist medal was also in purple-gold, forged from the rare purple-gold Divine Iron, with a nine-pointed design that reflected Divine Brilliance under the sunlight.
However, the Nine-Star Pharmacist robe and medal were too conspicuous and overly flamboyant, so Xiaotian didn’t wear them, tucking them away in the Green Dragon Heavenly Cauldron instead.
After awarding Xiaotian with the Nine-Star Pharmacist robe, the Qi Tian Medicine God pulled Yang Xiaotian into the Inner Hall and started chatting about household affairs.
When he learned that Yang Xiaotian had already registered for the preliminary selection of the Linyuan Empire to participate in the battle for divinity, the Qi Tian Medicine God asked in surprise, “Brother Yang is participating in the battle for divinity?”
It was no wonder that the Qi Tian Medicine God was astonished, considering that Xiaotian had just reached the peak of the third layer of the Saint Realm.
Yang Xiaotian replied with a smile, “I was bored, so I thought I’d join in the fun.”
The Qi Tian Medicine God chuckled, “Since Brother Yang is participating in the battle for divinity, then I must stay and watch the battle.”
Although he also felt that Yang Xiaotian at the peak of the third layer of the Saint Realm was unlikely to achieve a good ranking in the battle for divinity, he always felt that Yang Xiaotian wasn’t the type to be bored.
Furthermore, the tone in which Xiaotian had just spoken carried a strong air of confidence.
He was curious as to where Xiaotian’s powerful self-confidence came from.
On the following day, Xiaotian and Peng Long returned to the palace they rented.
Upon arrival, they were startled; outside their rented palace, it was packed with various powerhouses, all from the major superpowers of the Linyuan Empire.
Even the Great Emperor of the Linyuan Empire had come in person.
Xiaotian also saw Peng Fei and Peng Hui in the crowd.
In the end, Xiaotian accepted the items from everyone, and they happily departed.
Inside the palace, Xiaotian took out the top-quality God-Breaking Pill he had concocted that day and fed it to the Destiny God Tree.
With this top-quality God-Breaking Pill, the Destiny God Tree could grow two Destiny God Fruits.
By the preliminary selection next month, he hoped to break through to the fourth layer of the Saint Realm.
In the blink of an eye, a month passed.
The Empire’s preliminary selection finally began.
“Senior, let’s set out!” Xiaotian stood up and said to Peng Long.
