"Don't worry, I can guess a little about what Tian Wenliang did. With my character, Zhu Tianping, I would not bother to do such a thing. But our Danxin Hall has its own rules. I am doing things according to the rules. I don't mean to make things difficult for her. Let alone Mu Hanyan, even if Gong Hongru comes, I will have my own explanation." Zhu Tianping said confidently.
To be honest, after seeing Mu Hanyan's amazing performance in the freshman competition, he really didn't have the courage to deliberately make things difficult for her. However, he had no concerns about following the rules.
"Follow the rules!" Chu Chang and the others finally understood and smiled bitterly at the same time.
The art of alchemy is much more complicated than sword-making and formation techniques. If one does not have certain qualifications, learning it is just a waste of time. Therefore, according to the rules passed down from ancient times in the Sacred Heart Hall, one must pass the examination before being able to learn the art of alchemy.
However, precisely because the art of alchemy is so difficult, it is considered good enough to be able to recruit disciples. Who dares to be picky? Therefore, those rules have been thrown out the window over the years.
Zhu Tianping said that he would not make things difficult for Mu Hanyan, but he also said that he would follow the rules. In the final analysis, he was still making things difficult for her, but it was justified and others could not find any flaws.
The two of them sighed secretly. If this happened, Mu Hanyan would most likely not have the opportunity to come to their Danxin Hall to practice alchemy. However, once this rule was re-established, it could not be easily abolished. It was estimated that for a long time, Danxin Hall would not be able to recruit any disciples.
"Master Zhu, I'm afraid this is inappropriate?" Ye Fengyun frowned and said.
"What's wrong? Our Danxin Hall has lost talented people in recent years. This is certainly related to the short-sightedness and lack of ambition of our young disciples, but it is also related to the fact that we have ruined our reputation by recruiting disciples without distinguishing between good and bad. This time, we can re-establish the rules to let everyone know that not everyone can learn the alchemy skills of our Danxin Hall. This can also restore the reputation of our Danxin Hall." Zhu Tianping said righteously.
"Master Zhu, I see that you are clearly dissatisfied with the Nanyan Chamber of Commerce, so you are deliberately making things difficult for Mu Hanyan." Seeing Zhu Tianping finding all kinds of excuses and insisting on having his own way, Ye Fengyun felt a little annoyed and spoke less politely.
After hearing his words, Chu Chang and the others felt something move in their hearts and vaguely understood something.
"Ye Fengyun, what do you mean? Are you attracted to Mu Hanyan because she's pretty?" Zhu Tianping's little thoughts were exposed by Ye Fengyun, and he couldn't help but get angry and embarrassed.
Ye Fengyun's face turned red. Zhu Tianping's words were not careful, but they hit the nail on the head.
"Hmph, I just want to remind you, Mu Hanyan, you are not as easy to bully as you think. Don't repeat Tian Wenliang's mistakes and bring humiliation upon yourself." Ye Fengyun said with a cold snort.
"Ye Fengyun, you may not think too highly of Mu Hanyan. I admit that she is indeed gifted in sword-making and formation, but human potential is ultimately limited. I don't believe that she is equally gifted in alchemy." Zhu Tianping said unconvinced.
"Anyway, I've already reminded you. If you insist on humiliating yourself, that's your own business." Ye Fengyun was too lazy to say anything more to him. He just left after saying this.
"Master Zhu, what Young Master Ye said makes sense. As for Mu Hanyan, I'm afraid she is not as simple as you think. You'd better think about it carefully before making a decision." The two mentors Chu and Chang figured out the root cause of Zhu Tianping's rejection of Mu Hanyan. They were a little dissatisfied with his revenge, but they had no choice because Zhu Tianping's alchemy skills were better than theirs. He had always had the final say on all matters of Danxin Hall. They could not oppose his decision at all, so they gave him some advice and left disappointed.
"Hmph, she's just a youngster. No matter how capable she is, she actually scared you like this. I want to see how she passed the assessment of my Danxin Hall." Zhu Tianping said with a sneer as he watched the backs of the people leaving.
At this time, Mu Hanyan certainly didn't know that she had been regarded as a thorn in someone's side, and she walked into Danxin Hall with a relaxed mood.
Soon, Mu Hanyan discovered that the number of disciples in Danxin Hall was obviously much smaller than that in Zhujian Hall and Zhendao Hall. There were only seven or eight formal disciples. However, there were dozens of outer disciples who came next to them. Their treatment was much better than that in other halls and they were all qualified to enter the hall to listen.
This is obviously because there are too few people practicing the art of alchemy, otherwise how could they have such good treatment.
"Why are there so few people?" Mu Hanyan asked curiously.
"It was only after I came to Danxin Hall that I realized that the art of alchemy is far more complicated than sword-making and formations. To learn the art of alchemy, not only must one master the furnace temperature like sword-making, but also be familiar with the various hand gestures like formations, and one must also have a sufficient understanding of medicinal herbs. One must know that medicinal herbs have different properties, which complement each other, but also repel and counteract each other. Some rare herbs even have different medicinal properties depending on the year.
I heard that after reaching a certain level in alchemy, if one wants to go further, one must not only know the how but also the why, and one must have sufficient attainments in medicine.
In short, alchemy is much more complicated than other methods. Even if it is just for the purpose of trial cards, learning alchemy is much more difficult than learning other methods. If you do not have certain qualifications, it is simply a waste of time.
Therefore, after understanding the difficulties involved, most disciples are unwilling to continue learning, and many are not even interested in trying. "Tang Bufan said with a wry smile.
"This junior brother is right. If it weren't for the fact that we have been in Longyan Academy for many years and have learned most of the other strange skills, it would not be so easy to get the trial card, so we would not bother to waste time learning alchemy. But you, there is no need to waste time so early." After hearing what Tang Bufan said, a disciple in front turned his head and smiled bitterly, echoing.
Mu Hanyan then noticed that the number of formal disciples coming to learn the art of alchemy was not only small, but most of them were no longer young. It turned out that it was because they had been in the academy for many years, and it was becoming increasingly difficult to obtain other trial orders, so they came to Danxin Hall to "waste time."
As for the outer disciples, it didn't matter. They were just auditors wherever they were, and even then they could only hide under the window. Coming here at least gave them a decent place to stand. It was just a gamble to see if they had the talent to learn alchemy.
After understanding it, Mu Hanyin was not depressed at all, but his eyes lit up.
The more complex the alchemy technique is, the more complex the laws of heaven and earth contained in it are. This will be very beneficial for her to reach a higher realm in the future or to comprehend the Star-Falling Sword.
