Chapter 12 Chapter 12 Dark Horse

Walking out of the examination hall, Otto chased after him, walking side by side with Xiao Yan, occasionally turning his head to look at this young man with a calm smile, his eyes were a little strange. "Why are you staring at me?" After walking a certain distance, Xiao Yan couldn't stand Ao Tuo's gaze, and shook his head helplessly. "Hehe, I was just looking at how much you, little guy, are hiding to surprise people..." Otto laughed. Hearing this, Xiao Yan had no choice but to shrug his shoulders. "However, your performance is so eye-catching this time. I think that old guy Qie Mier will come to me to inquire about your identity in the near future. Although he doesn't know your exact strength, he is only about twenty years old. You can refine the Ironwood Spirit Leaf eight times, which is one of the few times since the establishment of the guild." Otto said.

"I know..." Xiao Yan walked slowly and nodded. When refining the iron wood spirit leaf, he thought of these things, but the conference is about to start, and it will be a matter of time before he reveals his strength, so he didn't It is necessary to deliberately behave extremely poorly at this juncture. Although it is good to be low-key, but too low-key, those disdainful and mocking eyes are still quite tangled and helpless. "As for my identity, I have to trouble Master Otto to help me conceal it." Xiao Yan pursed his lips slightly, and said softly: "For some reason, if my identity is exposed, I am afraid I will not participate in this conference again. So, master, you have to help as much as you can."

Hearing the serious consequences Xiao Yan said, Otto was taken aback, and then frowned tightly. If Xiao Yan quit the competition, wouldn't the Black Rock City Alchemist Guild lose a chance to achieve good results this time?This is really a serious threat to Otto, who has never made much achievements since he came to power. Frowning and pondering for a while, Otto just nodded and said with a wry smile, "Okay, I'll try to hide it for you. Fortunately, this batch of member information hasn't been uploaded yet, so I can still modify it." "Hehe, then I would like to thank Master Ao Tuo." Hearing this, Xiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.

"I can't help it. I don't want such an excellent player I finally found to run away." Otto said helplessly. Xiao Yan smiled, just about to speak.Frank's loud laughter suddenly sounded from the front: "Hey, Old O. How is it? Is the test over? How is this little guy?" At this time, Xiao Yan and the two had already walked out of the corridor.Because it is an intersection, there are quite a lot of people here.Hearing Frank's laughter, many curious people immediately slowed down and turned their attention to Xiao Yan who was walking with Otto.Because the previous test was an internal test, these alchemists did not know the exact result of the competition.But they also know that most of the people who can participate in that kind of internal test are the seed players of this conference, and their strength is extremely extraordinary.

Hearing the laughter, Xiao Yan raised his head and looked at Frank who was striding over with a smile.Beside him, Xue Mei and Na Linfei, who were dressed in silver dresses and looked extremely glamorous, also followed.At this time, their somewhat curious eyes were also projected on Xiao Yan.Obviously, they were also very curious about what kind of results Xiao Yan could achieve in this level of test. "It's not bad, it's passed..." Looking at the three people who came in front of him, Xiao Yan smiled. Hearing this, Otto on the side rolled his eyes.If such a result is still passable.Aren't the others unqualified?

"Hehe, passed? That's good. I was a little worried at first. After all, those guys who participated in the internal test are not fuel-efficient." Frank laughed. "Hey, you guys represent our Black Rock City this time. Although you are not expected to surpass Liu Ling's level of genius, you must at least get in the top ten in this kind of internal test before you can be recognized in the conference. Get a good result, right? Just passable is not enough..." Lin Fei muttered, obviously, she seemed to think that the passable that Xiao Yan said should be the kind of score that barely passes.

"Although Liu Ling is a genius, he is a disciple of King Pill after all, and he is older than Xiao...Yan Xiao. It is already very good to have such an achievement. At least we are not even qualified to obtain such an achievement. It seems that because Xiao Yan helped to say something nice because of the love affair last time, Xue Mei glanced at Lin Fei and said calmly: "I know you worship that Liu Ling, but Yan Xiao is on our side If he loses, our Black Rock City will not look good." "I just said that from the position that he is the representative of our Black Rock City... I didn't say anything about him... What's the matter with Liu Ling?" Lin Fei said resentfully.

"Oh, well, you two, please be quiet." Seeing this pair of enemies, Otto shook his head helplessly, and smiled at Falkland: "This time, you may be so surprised that your jaw will drop. come down." "Oh? What's the matter?" Frank was taken aback, wondering. Otto smiled and was about to speak, but there was a commotion in the corridor behind him. They looked back, and it turned out that the contestants who took part in the test came out one after another, and the two in front happened to be the little princess and the Liu Ling with a gloomy face. "Is that Liu Ling? A disciple of Master Pill King Furukawa? The momentum is really extraordinary."

"You are a third-grade pharmacist at such a young age, alas, it really makes people..." "Presumably the best result in this test must belong to him." "Who can let someone have a good teacher... I can't be envious." Looking at the group of people walking out of the corridor, the people around suddenly started whispering. Xiao Yan turned his head slightly, looked at Liu Ling who was walking slowly, and smiled. Walking out of the corridor with a gloomy face, Liu Ling saw the familiar figure at a glance, the corner of her mouth twitched slightly, and then took a deep breath. Immediately, the concealment on her face quickly faded away, replaced by that feminine smile.

"Mr. Yan Xiao, congratulations." Walking forward, Liu Ling first bowed to Otto Frank and saluted, then turned to Xiao Yan and smiled. Xiao Yan smiled and shook his head: "It's a fluke." "I still have something to do, so I won't talk much, Mr. Yan Xiao, let's meet tomorrow." Liu Ling obviously had no intention of chatting at this time, and after saying hello, she moved away from Xiao Yan and the others , and then passed through the crowd and disappeared from everyone's sight. "Mr. Yanxiao." Following Liu Ling forward a few steps, the little princess suddenly stopped, hesitated for a moment, turned around and smiled at Xiao Yan and said, "There is a party tonight, and many alchemists from the conference will attend ,you……"

"Hehe, I'm sorry, I have something to do tonight, I'm afraid I don't have time..." Xiao Yan was slightly taken aback by the olive branch thrown out suddenly by the little princess, then relieved, shook his head, and said with a smile. Xiao Yan's refusal did not surprise the little princess, her lips moved slightly, and after staring at Xiao Yan for a while, she said with a smile: "If that's the case, then I won't force it, Mr. Yan Xiao If you need help, you can come to me and say goodbye." Looking at the little princess who was slowly disappearing from sight, Xiao Yan pursed his lips slightly, remembering her attitude towards him before the test results came out, looking at the present now, he couldn't help but smile wryly in his heart and said: "As expected of someone who came from the royal family! , useful people and useless people, in her eyes, the difference in treatment is so big." Watching Liu Ling disappear with little stars in her eyes, Lin Fei then turned her head, looked at Xiao Yan, and said doubtfully, "By the way, what is he congratulating you for?" "nothing." Xiao Yan smiled, he didn't think it was a great thing to win Liu Ling, although he was Gu He's disciple, but this false name, for those who once dared to treat Gu He and Queen Medusa as fish and oysters, but himself as a For Xiao Yan, who was once a fisherman, he had almost no deterrent effect. "Everyone, I have something to do. I'll take my leave first. I'll see you tomorrow." Without giving Lin Fei a chance to continue asking questions, Xiao Yan smiled and cupped his hands at Otto and the others, and then walked quickly towards the outside of the guild. go. "The internal test just now was to refine iron wood spirit leaves." Looking at the back of Xiao Yan walking out in a hurry, Otto stroked his gray beard, and said suddenly after a while. "Refining Ironwood Spirit Leaf? It's quite difficult. That thing is almost the most difficult material to refine among medium materials. With my current strength, I can only refine it eight or nine times." Hearing this, Frank Surprised, he turned his head and said. "Hehe, yes." Otto nodded with a smile, and raised his chin at the place where Liu Ling disappeared: "That little guy has been refined six times." "Six times?" Hearing Otto's words, Frank's face was filled with surprise, and he tsk-tsk praised: "It's amazing, at such an age, he can reach this level. He is indeed a disciple of Furukawa." "That thing... I seem to be able to refine it only twice, and Lin Fei is about the same as me. That Liu Ling's talent for refining medicine is really extraordinary." Xue Mei, who was beside her, sighed softly and said. "Hehe, that's natural. He is the leader among the younger generation of pharmacists in the Jia Ma Empire." Lin Fei smiled, and she really admired Liu Ling very much. "Hehe, that's not necessarily true." Otto laughed and shook his head. Seeing Lin Fei glaring, he said with a smile, "Although Liu Ling is excellent, Yan Xiao is no weaker than him. In the test just now, Liu Ling refined six times, and Yan Xiao Xiao, it was eight times!" Otto's words were undoubtedly like thunder, and the expressions on the faces of the three of Defalkland instantly became stiff, eight times?This is a level that can only be reached by a fourth-rank pharmacist, but Xiao Yan, a second-rank pharmacist, can actually do it?How is this possible? "Old...teacher, you...are you kidding me?" Lin Fei came back from the shock and said in a dazed way. She couldn't believe that Xiao Yan was even more powerful than Liu Ling. On the side, Xue Mei also opened her red lips slightly, her icy expression was a little stunned at this moment, although she did not underestimate Xiao Yan, she never thought that he could achieve such dazzling results. "Old Ao, what you said is true?" Frank stared at Otto closely, with ecstasy on his face, the better Xiao Yan's performance, the better it would be for the Black Rock City branch. "This little guy hides very deeply. Now I'm suddenly looking forward to this meeting." Looking at the place where Xiao Yan disappeared with a smile, Otto said with a smile: "This time, Yan Xiao will probably be the leader of the meeting." A biggest dark horse!"
