Lu Chang'sheng nodded.
"Honestly, Fellow Daoist, I advise you to come back next time." Niu Xi said.
This was already the third time Niu Xi had told Lu Chang'sheng this.
Lu Chang'sheng was, after all, getting on in years. If he failed this time, his record would be left in the White Cloud Pharmacy, and future attempts at the examination would be affected by even more factors.
"The White Cloud Cave Mansion is also split into outer and inner sects. The outer sect mostly works through partnerships, and you have to complete various tasks assigned by the sect."
"The inner sect, however, is different. Though there are still tasks, there aren't many, and you have far more autonomy. If your potential is high enough, you might even be accepted as a student by another alchemist."
"Fellow Daoist, if you pass on your first try, you'll be marked as high potential. But if you have to come multiple times, I'm afraid—"
Lu Chang'sheng understood Niu Xi's meaning.
