I Can Extract Everything

In Ancient Dragon City, the Secondary Profession Association's position is slightly lower than the Five Guardian Clans. However, it's still a monster-like existence.

Not to mention that the Secondary Profession Association in the Ancient Dragon City is only a branch side.

Therefore, even if the Five Guardian Clans merged into one, they still didn't dare to do anything to the Secondary Profession Association.

The Secondary Profession Association is a vast construct. The courtyard pavilion alone took up a tremendous amount of space. The hall in front had many people wearing robes with different colors and styles walking in and out.

Although the Secondary Profession Association usually acts low-key, one can see how glorious they used to be based on the magnificent construct.

The Secondary Profession was divided into five primary professions: Alchemist, Refiner, Formation Master, Talisman Maker, and Spiritual Chef. Each field has the same concept of rank.

Rank 1 = Apprentice

Rank 2 = Master

Rank 3 = Grandmaster

Rank 4 = Spirit

Rank 5 = Grand Spirit

There are only five ranks so far known to the public. Further ranks may only be known by specific figures who consider it as classified information.

After entering the Alchemist Association, Dai Yong, Xue Chan, Kang Yi, and the bunch all looked around.

Even though it wasn't their first time coming here, they still felt overwhelmed every time they walked into this hall.

Qin Yi carefully looked around. He saw many people who were difficult to distinguish, whether they were Secondary Professionals or examinees like him and the rest.

Thus, he asked the person closest to him, "Brother Wang, are they all examinees?"

"Not all." Wang Dong answered and then pointed his finger in a certain direction, "You see the person over there..."

Qin Yi's eyes immediately followed Wang Dong's index finger.

"That guy has a badge on his chest; that badge is a sign that he is an official Secondary Professional. On the badge, there is a symbol that represents his profession. The Cauldron symbol meant he was an Alchemist. In addition to the symbol, there is also one small star below it; the more the number of stars, the higher his Secondary Profession's rank."

Wang Dong finished explaining.

"Hmm~" Qin Yi pinched his chin. 

No one knew what he was thinking right now.

As if knowing what Qin Yi was thinking, Wang Dong suddenly added.

"The Secondary Profession Badge is no ordinary badge. I heard it has a unique mechanism that will burn ashes when someone other than its owner holds it. Only the Secondary Profession Association could make it, so no one else could imitate it."

"Tsk," Qin Yi clicked his tongue.

Wang Dong titled his head, "Why are you clicking your tongue?"

"Nothing. I'm just impressed with the Secondary Profession Association's way." Qin Yi smiled innocently.

As the two of them continued walking and chatting, they finally arrived in front of the receptionist.

"Nice to have you here. What can I do for you?" A lady wearing a white robe walked over and asked. She's the receptionist in the Secondary Profession Association Hall.

"Senior Su Mei, we would like to apply for the Secondary Profession Apprentice Exam… as usual." 

Dai Yong spoke with a slight blush on his face.

Not only him, but the people behind him were acting the same way.

After all, it feels weird that Dai Yong has been repeating the same lines every year, and they are standing behind him like it's a routine.

Qin Yi, "..."

On the contrary, Su Mei did not really care about them since she was already immune to this kind of thing.

She just swept her eyes across and smiled. Then she handed the pieces of paper to Dai Yong and the others one by one.

Qin Yi also received that paper.

It turned out to be a form that asked the examinee's identity such as name, cultivation base, faction, and... hm? Status?

"What's the status?" Confused Qin Yi.

"It's your status relationship." Wang Dong answered his question.

Qin Yi was stunned.

Does that have anything to do with this exam?

"There is not any."

Wang Dong answered insta if he heard the question in Qin Yi's head.

Qin Yi's face twitched.

What are you, clairvoyance?

"This must be Grand Master Lu Ping's handiwork. He's a very eccentric person who really detests a couple."

Kang Yi suddenly butts in their conversation.

"Grand Master Lu Ping?" Qin Yi tilted his head.

To be honest, he didn't know much about the people in the Secondary Profession circle. Therefore, he did not know who this person named Lu Ping was.

Only people like Grand Spirit Ye Hong and Hundred Treasures Fairy could Qin Yi know. After all, they are very famous figures both in the cultivation circle and the Secondary Profession circle.

Kang Yi was a bit taken aback as he looked at Qin Yi, "You don't know Grand Master Lu Ping? Where have you been all this time?"

"..." Qin Yi felt ignorant and couldn't help but ask, "Is he someone who invented the immortality pill or something?"

"Don't be silly!" Kang Yi rebuked him and explained, "No one is capable of inventing the pill of immortality, not even Grand Spirit Ye Hong. Grand Master Lu Ping is a genius Alchemist who invented the Berserk Pill, you must at least have heard of the Berserk Pill, right?" 

Berserk Pill?

Of course, he knows. After all, he got quite a bit of them from some fellow disciples.

That pill was a lesser version of Wu Kun's Body and Spirit Wine. However, it is safer to consume than Body and Spirit Wine.

Therefore, Qin Yi nodded towards Kang Yi's confirmation.

"So why does this Grand Master Lu Ping detest a couple?"

"Who knows?" Kang Yi shrugged his shoulders and said.

"As far as I know, this Grand Master Lu Ping has never had a relationship with any Dao companion before. Some people assume that he has a dark history in a relationship, but that's it, that's just a wild assumption."

This world is sure filled with eccentric people.

Qin Yi raised his eyebrows and asked curiously, "What happens if I write "in-relationship" in this form?"

"Not much happened. At most, you just left a bad impression on Grand Master Lu Ping." Kang Yi smirked.

"Don't listen to him. You'll get minus points if you do that. It's common knowledge for examinees. Please remember this next time." Wang Dong spoke.

Next time?

So you've already deemed me as a failure?

I'm sorry, but please don't lump me with the kind of you. Qin Yi imperiously said in his heart.

After all, he has the best tool to cheat in this exam.

Qin Yi and the others immediately handed back their registration forms to Su Mei after filling them out.

Apart from filling out the registration form, they also had to pay a registration fee of 100 low-grade spirit stones.

Qin Yi did not hesitate to hand over his spirit stones to Su Mei.

Kang Yi, who was standing behind him, couldn't help but be a little surprised and said, "You don't sweat when you spend that much money. You must be rich, right?"

"No way, I'm just a little richer than you, Senior Kang~." Qin Yi answered humbly.

(ʘ_ʘ╬)

Kang Yi's fist was itching.

Qin Yi smiled innocently.

No one knew his background, so they could only think he was rich.

After doing these procedures, a male staff approaches them.

"Follow me," The male staff briefly, not saying anything else.

The Apprentice Secondary Profession Exam is held in five different halls. Meanwhile, the Apprentice Alchemist Exam was located in a long passage that stretched a far distance away.

At the end of the passage was a large hall that was large enough to accommodate hundreds of examinees.

Every examinee has to go into that hall to finish the complex alchemy knowledge exam. After which, a few Masters Alchemy will assess their answers before going to the next round of the exam.

Among the seven of them, only Qin Yi, Xue Chan, and Kang Yi took the Apprentice Alchemist Exam. The others went to different halls according to their fields.

Before long, Qin Yi and the other two arrived at the alchemy exam hall.

As soon as he entered the hall, he saw that the examinees had almost filled the seats.

Each seat is two meters away from the other seats.

The staff said, "The written exam will start in about fifteen minutes. For now, you can find a seat and wait for the exam to start."

With that, Qin Yi separated from his sect mates and looked for an empty seat in the middle.

He looked around him and couldn't help but to mutter, "There's surprisingly a lot of people who took the Apprentice Alchemist exam..."

"That's obvious. After all, the Secondary Profession Association's branches only exist in big cities like Ancient Dragon City. Therefore, if people want to participate in the Apprentice Secondary Profession Exam, they can only flock to this city."

The one who spoke just now was an ostentatious-looking man with a folding fan in his hand.

"Who are you?" Qin Yi lightly asked that man.

"Oh, you don't know who I am?" The man looked at Qin Yi like looking a caveman.

Qin Yi rolled his eyes and asked, "Did you create an immortality pill or something?"

"Like hell I could do that.. Are you crazy?" The man yelled.
