Chapter 903: The Assessment Begins

Danyun City is very large and extremely prosperous.

On the wide street, people come and go, shoulder to shoulder.

Most of the shops on both sides are related to pills. After all, this is Pill City, the holy land of the Southern Pill World, where many alchemists and pharmacists gather.

Tang Hao plunged into the medicinal material street, went to every store, and didn't miss the street stalls, and found a lot of good things.

“Big cities are just different!”

A few hours later, Tang Hao muttered and came out contentedly.

"By the way, go sign up first!"

Tang Hao happily walked towards Danyun Mountain.

From a distance, he saw the eye-catching registration point under the mountain gate. There were a lot of people and there was a long queue.

Tang Hao was a little surprised, how could there be so many people in this assessment once a month.

But if you think about it carefully, the southern region is so big, and there is only one assessment point, it seems normal to have more people.

After walking over to take a look, Tang Hao was stunned.

At a glance, there are many uncles in sight, even those in their thirties are considered young, most of them are in their forties or fifties, and there are even old men with gray hair.

All of them had thin complexions, bloodshot eyes, and were extremely haggard.

Some people even hung flags on their backs, with various slogans written on them, such as "the more frustrated you become, the more courageous you are", and there are also "every test is sure to win".

What's happening here?

Tang Hao froze in place.

"Rang Rang, hey! Young man, Rang Rang!"

A white-haired old man came over, leaning on a cane, trembling, looking like he was about to die.

"Grand...Master, are you...?"

Tang Hao turned around and looked, puzzled.

"Oh! I'm going to sign up." The uncle walked tremblingly.

Tang Hao stared, almost protruding,

Stunned: "Apply...to sign up?"

The old man saw that his lifespan was near the end of his life, and he was unable to walk steadily, so he went to take the alchemist exam?

This is so ridiculous!

"Ahem! Yes!" The uncle walked with great difficulty, coughed a few times, and coughed up some blood.

"It's Uncle Wei, Uncle Wei is here again!"

"Uncle Wei is really a role model for my generation! Although he will fail every exam, he is never discouraged, and the more he fights, the braver he is!"

The team was a sensation, and those people turned around, showing admiration.

"oops!"

At this time, the uncle became unstable and fell down.

"Quick, help me up quickly, I can take the exam again! Before I die, I must pass the exam!" The uncle shouted.

"What a spirit! It's just touching!"

"Yeah! It's so touching! Woohoo! Why am I crying, I feel very sad!"

Many uncles turned red, as if seeing their future selves, they swarmed out, helped Uncle Wei up, and walked to the front of the line.

"Wei Dabin, now 301 years old, has participated in the assessment for the 753rd time. After review, the age is correct and the number of times is correct. Accurate!"

The voice of the staff came from over there.

"Seven hundred and fifty three times! That's amazing!"

"Uncle Wei is indeed a legend!"

Everyone sighed again.

Tang Hao's mouth opened wide unconsciously, seven hundred and fifty three times? God! How persistent is this, and, is this assessment so difficult?

"Zhang Sanfeng, now 102 years old, participated in the assessment for the 90th time. After verification, the age is correct and the number of times is correct. Since the number of times is less than 100, he needs to pay 10,000 crystals as the registration fee."

"Ma Er, 150 years old, participated in the assessment for the 123rd time, after review..."

The applicants came forward one by one, not dozens of times, or hundreds of times, which made Tang Hao even more speechless.

He walked over to the back of the line.

In front of him, those people turned around and looked, they were all stunned.

"Boy, how old are you?"

An uncle couldn't help asking.

"Twenty-one!" Tang Hao said.

"Damn! Twenty-one?" The uncle's eyes widened.

"What? Twenty-one? Where's the little baby? Do you have nothing to do? If you don't go home and learn alchemy, why come here to join in the fun!" an old man reprimanded.

"That's right! What a waste of money! Ten thousand at a time, aren't you messing around!"

Everyone scolded.

Most people start learning medicine at the age of eleven or twelve, and some are later, at fourteen or five years old. After learning medicine, they start learning Dan, at least seventeen or eighteen years old.

Alchemy is difficult to learn, and it takes at least three or four years to get started. If you want to be an alchemist, you have to study hard for at least ten years, that is, more than thirty years.

Even if they are some geniuses, they must be twenty-four or five!

And this kid, at most entry-level, isn't he here for abuse!

"Ahem! It's okay, just treat it as an experience!" Tang Hao didn't dare to say anything about self-confidence.

"Hey! What a fool, what a waste of money!"

After the crowd fell for a while, they ignored Tang Hao.

Tang Hao looked at it for a while, and couldn't help but ask the uncle in front, "Why... are you all so old? Some of you have passed the exam a hundred times?"

The uncle smiled wryly, and said: "There is a quota for this assessment, only 20 will be taken at a time, and the official alchemist certificate will be issued, and the embroidered dragon robe will be awarded."

"Think about it, twenty at a time, only two hundred and forty a year, tens of thousands of people participated in the assessment, and there are too many people left, so they can only take the test over and over again."

"It's so pitiful?"

Tang Hao was speechless.

"Isn't that right, it's too deceitful. If there are a few geniuses among the participants, it will be even more deceitful! Boy, fortunately you are not!" the uncle said.

Tang Hao wanted to roll his eyes, thinking that I don't look like a genius!

Ten minutes later, it was finally Tang Hao's turn.

He walked forward, and the alchemy disciple sitting behind the table looked up and was stunned.

"You... signed up?"

He hesitated, looking Tang Hao up and down.

"Yes!" Tang Hao nodded, "Can't you report it?"

The man hesitated for a while, and said, "Do you have any money? Ten thousand yuan!"

"Yes!" Tang Hao took out a big bag and put it on the table.

"If you have money, it's fine. Come on, write this form!" The disciple opened the bag, grinned, and handed out a piece of paper.

Tang Hao picked up the pen, dipped in the ink, and started writing.

"alright!"

With flamboyant strokes, Tang Hao handed the paper back.

After taking it for a look, the disciple's tiger body was shocked, and he looked up at Tang Hao strangely.

"Tang Ritian?"

"yes!"

"real name?"

"It's true!"

"Damn! It's so unique!" The disciple muttered, and then said loudly: "Tang Ritian, 21 years old, is taking part in the assessment for the first time. After the audit, the age is correct, and the number of times is correct. Accurate!"

As he said that, he picked up a chapter and put it on with a bang.

"Come on, this is your sign!"

Then, he handed over a wooden sign with a number on it, 1888, and his name on the reverse.

"Three days later, come here early, remember?"

Tang Hao took the wooden sign, thanked him, and turned to leave.

In the past three days, Tang Hao wandered around the city, looking for medicine everywhere.

Early this morning, he set off and rushed to Danyun Mountain to participate in the assessment.
