The Road To Immortality

Raw Gems

"Give me that answer sheet!"

Nang In handed the answer sheet to Wuan Yuan, the woman immediately checked on the spot, a shocked expression appearing on Wuan Yuan's face as soon as she corrected Nang In's answer sheet.

"By the way Senior can release your qi pressure, it really makes me uncomfortable" Nang In asked as Song Juji had been pressing him with his qi pressure all the time.

"This brat! how dare you-"

"Chairman Juji, let go!" sidelong Wuan Yuan while glancing sharply made Song Juji grit his teeth before releasing his qi pressure.

"Curtain! You're lucky boy!" song Juji said reluctantly, if only Wuan Yuan did not bring - carry Song Qian's name then the stocky man would not just obey the woman's orders.

"Thank you very much Miss" Nang In cupped his fists to Wuan Yuan. The woman nodded lightly then went back to correcting Nang In's answer sheet.

"Interesting! you are truly amazing! all your answers are correct there is no one wrong!" wuan Yuan's words made the participants and the audience who heard him shocked by the woman's words.

"Miss Wuan, let me check!" zihan Shi said curiously, he had yet to believe it before looking directly at it.

"Please Senior Shi" Wuan Yuan gave all of Nang In's answer sheets to the old man beside him.

Zihan Shi received then perusedly read every answer Nang In wrote, a shocked expression could not be hidden from the old man's face, "Excellent! this is really awesome!"

The answer from Zihan Shi made all who heard him shocked, especially Song Juji and Song Lu, Haoucun Hai also showed the same shock.

"He has already obtained the recognition of Miss Wuan, now recognized by Senior Zihan Shi?"

Impossible, is it true that the young man can answer all the questions correctly?"

"When the rumors if the year is now more difficult than twice the previous!"

"..."

The live audience was excited as Nang In managed to gain recognition from Wuan Yuan and Zihan Shi.

"Not only did he answer in an easy-to-understand language, but the young man even gave a better answer than the five of us!" muttered Zihan Shi with an amazed expression, he looked at Nang In from bottom to top and found nothing interesting from his appearance, except for his handsome face "It was only fitting that this brat was so confident in his abilities!"

"Senior allow me to correct it" Song Lu who couldn't help but be curious asked Zihan Shi to give the answer sheet. "I wonder why the expression you're showing is so exaggerated!" song Lu said out of curiosity as to why Wuan Yuan and Zihan Shi were over-expressing.

"Hmm this is indeed good, but there is nothing amazing about this answer" Song Lu said as he corrected Nang In's answer, but after a few seconds the man's expression changed further as the answer sheet he read, "How can he give such a complex answer using a different point of view?"

"Even the Hoe Man! you too!?" song Juji said after seeing three other judges who had over-expressed after correcting Nang In's answer sheet.

"Let me see it!" feeling that the three of them were exaggerating, Song Juji looked at the answer sheet Song Lu himself was holding.

"I - This how can it be!?"

"How is Senior, my answer?!" nang In said with a small smile to Song Juji, the stocky man gritted his teeth before getting up and looked sharply at Nang In.

"You! you must've gotten a leak no answer, who gave-"

"Chairman Juji!"

Not yet had Song Juji finished his words, a strong pressure from the Nascent Soul Low-stage champ had befallen him. His gaze was directed at Zihan Shi who was glaring at him.

"No Senior! that's not what I meant! I'm not accusing you at all!" said Song Juji with a shoulder that was already so limp, even though Zihan Shi did not take out all of his abilities, the stocky man still felt a death sensation all over his body.

"Senior please calm down!" wuan Yuan said to the old man beside him, the woman almost fainted if her personal bodyguard did not give her protective qi.

Everyone who was in the hall including Song Li, Haoucun Hai felt the burdensome pressure on their shoulders, Nang In who was near Zihan Shi was kneeling in a limp state, feeling faint, the young man was not strong enough to withstand the old man's qi pressure.

"Finally my feelings are bad, that's why I'm easily emotional!" Zihan Shi sighed before releasing his qi pressure, "I'm sorry" he said from feeling guilty.

After the qi pressure disappeared the spectators as well as the participants were able to breathe with relief, Wuan Yuan immediately asked the Song Clan members to take care of the participants as well as the unconscious spectators.

"For the participants, I represent the jury would like to apologise for any disturbance that interfered with your concentration, we will give you extra time" wuan Yuan said to the participants approved by the other four jurors.

The participants were relieved that the previously disrupted time could be replaced, the participants returned to work on the exam despite still being shocked due to being exposed to a little bit of Zihan Shi's qi pressure. Nang In himself was so depressed but after adjusting his breath finally the young man was able to calm down.

Wuan Yuan's view led to Nang In, "All the answers you wrote are correct, for the previous bet we will discuss after the race is over, please wait outside" said Wuan Yuan asking Nang In to come out politely.

"Thank you Senior" Nang In cupped his fists and walked out of the arena, followed by Niiu and Xuan Li who followed the young man from behind.

"So he has a relationship with the Star Alchemist Association, interesting!" muttered Wuan Yuan inwardly, "I managed to find the raw gem among the pile of trash, just how did I get it then polish it well" Wuan Yuan said with a smile looking at Nang In from a distance.

**

"Hey how did you do it?" xuan Li asked following behind Nang In. Niiu who was beside Xuan Li was curious about the answer Nang In would say.

"I just did what I should have done" Nang In replied with a flat expression. If not for Xuan Li's coercion, Nang In would not have wanted to take on such an overly conspicuous race.

"No, how can you do everything right without getting it wrong even in such a short time?" xuan Li asked as he pulled up his sleeves.

Nang In became a participant in the history of intelligent race meticulously that can solve 100 problems with just 30 minutes, even all the answers are right without the slightest mistake.

"Of course it's because I've been preparing" Nang In replied as he tilted his head, before going on an adventure that the young man had already studied hundreds of books while on Spice Island, this made him have a very broad knowledge.

In addition to preparation, Nang In has the ability that not just anyone can have. Yes, Nang In's ability to absorb science can be categorized as an actual genius.

"What if the least talented person like me becomes a genius like you?"

Xuan Li stopped walking then looked at Nang In seriously, in his life he very often met with geniuses like his brother. In his heart he wanted to be like his brother who had genius talent and made everyone admire him.

But in reality the girl did not have any good talent in the field of alchemy, even her father who was the owner of the Star Alchemist Association gave up teaching Xuan Li, if not for Nang In teaching him alchemy, Xuan Li would not have been a Silver Alchemist.

Nang In sighed before saying, "Everyone has different abilities, if you feel that your abilities are worse in alchemy than your brother's, I'm sure you have other advantages that your brother doesn't have,

It's funny that if you compare yourself to him, you're different, you're unique in your own way, come on! being a genius who became a Golden Alchemist at the age of 15 is not great, do you think I consider your brother to be great? nay!

I think it's great that someone with the worst talent but is willing to change and strive to get better, it's great, isn't that you" Nang In smiled gently at Xuan Li, made the girl's cheeks flushed.

"You just have to be yourself and keep trying as much as you can. Yes, don't forget to enjoy life, and having fun is important" Nang In said with a cheerful smile.

Seeing Nang In's smile accompanied by a warm sun made Xuan Li smile as well, the girl closed her eyes as she said.

"Thank you"
