Mystery Descends: My Exchanges Are Not Equal

Thinking of this, Wang Teng walked towards one side of the high platform.

There were several altars there.

Each altar had a stone tablet on it.

As he moved, Qian Lingxue followed closely behind him.

Everyone else also looked over one after another.

Unknowingly, Wang Teng had already become the focus of the entire venue.

Every move he made would draw everyone's attention.

"Look quickly~! The tycoon is walking towards the stone tablet!"

"What's he going to do?"

"I guess he's going to check the pill formulas!"

"Or maybe he's going to place an alchemy bounty."

"However, there's not a single certified alchemist in the Divine Hall right now!"

"Yeah~! I've already prepared the herbs, but there aren't any certified alchemists to take the bounty."

"I've prepared over ten portions, and although herbs are easy to obtain, certified alchemists are really hard to find!"

The crowd murmured non-stop.

It turned out that most of the people here had prepared herbs and came to the Great Hall looking for certified alchemists.

Certified alchemists are recognized by the Great Dao, and cannot commit fraud or breach of contract, and their success rates in pill forming are much higher.

Otherwise, since there were many alchemists in the hall, those people would directly find an alchemist to refine on the spot.

In reality, those people didn't dare!

Even if herbs were relatively easy to obtain, they weren't just lying around.

Who could guarantee that after obtaining the herbs, the alchemist wouldn't just abscond with them?

Or perhaps, after successfully refining the pills, the alchemist wouldn't claim all the results for themselves.

After all, in this Great Hall, mutual fighting is prohibited.

And uncertified alchemists have varying levels of skill; if all the painstakingly collected materials are wasted, it would be a total loss.

Therefore, people naturally prioritize safety and prefer to find certified alchemists to set bounties for alchemy.

But until now, no alchemist has passed the Divine Hall's certification exam to become a certified alchemist of the hall.

Without certified alchemists, the people just can't issue bounties!

Thinking of this, everyone felt frustrated.

"I think we came here for nothing today! Those three Intermediate Alchemists all failed their tests. Without High Level Alchemist standards, passing the certification seems very difficult!"

"High Level Alchemist? Ha~! It's been less than seven days now, it's almost impossible for a High Level Alchemist to appear!"

"Yeah~! To put it bluntly, the Divine Hall's certification is too hard!"

"In the end, it's also for the public interest; the certified alchemist must meet high standards, which gives us more assurance!"

"Forget it, forget it! It was a waste of time today, without a good alchemist, staying here is pointless, let's all head back!"

There was a lot of discussion among the crowd.

Many people looked disappointed.

They sincerely hoped that a certified alchemist would be born in this Divine Hall.

What a pity!

Their wish was too difficult to fulfill.

At the same time, Wang Teng placed his palm on the stone tablet, and an endless stream of numbers appeared before his eyes.

Upon seeing this, the crowd curiously watched.

They were eager to see if this tycoon was going to do something unexpected next.

Meanwhile, Wang Teng began to read the prompt in front of him.

[Detected your identity as an alchemist, congratulations on qualifying to purchase pill formulas.]

[Note: The number of times you can purchase pill formulas is related to your Reputation Value.]

[Note: When your Reputation Value reaches 1000 points, you can receive 1 purchase permission; at 1500 points, you can gain 2 purchase permissions... for every 500 points increase in Reputation Value, you can gain one additional purchase permission.]

[Note: Detected that your Reputation Value has reached 2200 points, congratulations on obtaining three purchase permissions.]

Wang Teng understood suddenly.

This rule is quite similar to that of the Ten Thousand Laws Hall, but with a slightly lower threshold.

With Wang Teng's Reputation Value, he had three purchase permissions in this Great Hall.

This immediately put him in a good mood.

[Note: Basic Alchemists are only open to Tier Two or below pill formulas, Intermediate Alchemists to Tier Three or below pill formulas, and so on.]

So it turns out that the tier of the pill formula one can purchase is also related to one's alchemy skills!

The higher the alchemist's level, the higher the tier of pill formulas they can purchase.

Wang Teng was grateful that he was an Intermediate Alchemist, allowing him to purchase Tier Three pill formulas.

With a turn of his heart thought, a shop interface appeared before him.

He hurriedly opened the product list, pulling up a long list of pill formulas.

With his Intermediate Alchemist permissions, he could only see Tier One to Tier Three pill formulas.

He specifically checked the Tier Three pill formulas.

Because his goal was to acquire the Tier Three pill formula—Basic Spirit Awakening Pill.

With a heart thought, the shop interface automatically scrolled through.

Soon, the introduction of the Spirit Awakening Pill appeared before him.

[Basic Spirit Awakening Pill formula, Yellow Level Tier Three.]

[Exchange price: 1000 Contribution Value.]

He finally found it, and the price was quite cheap!

Wang Teng breathed a sigh of relief.

Once he learned the refining method for the Basic Spirit Awakening Pill, the success rate for refining the Mid-Level Spirit Awakening Pill would no longer be halved.

By that time, he could confidently proceed to refine the Mid-Level Spirit Awakening Pill.

Thinking of this, he happily selected the Basic Spirit Awakening Pill formula.

Then, he chose two more Tier Three pill formulas, using up all three purchase permissions, and paid for the purchase...

At this time, the crowd, looking at Wang Teng's back, continued to discuss.

"Do you guys think this guy could possibly be an alchemist?"

"Impossible~! In the early stages, alchemists are all very poor, none as filthy rich as him!"

"True~! This guy doesn't seem like us alchemists; he's too wealthy!"
