Chapter 1922


    Chapter 1922


    Needless to say, fatigue was starting to overwhelm Severin. His bloodshot eyes betrayed the strain that


    he experienced due tock of sleep, and the once surging spiritual power in Severin’s energy core had


    dwindled.


    *Just a few dozen to go. I might be able to move on to the sixth floor if I endure this a little longer. Entry


    to the sixth floor will mark my induction as a sixth–grade alchemist!” Severin gritted his teeth and forced


    himself to continue.


    He continued to study the material and carry out meticulous experiments to ascertain its viability for


    crafting. Unbeknownst to him, his achievements had roused much excitement outside of the tower.


    Many disciples witnessed Severin’s steady climb in the rankings, and a substantial crowd was drawn to


    the


    Alchemy Tower. Severin’s name, long etched on the stone monument, had climbed steadily from the


    hundredth ce to the fourth in just half a year. Only a dozen pills separated him from Emery, who held


    the third spot.


    At the same time, Emery was facing her struggles on the fifth floor. Covered in sweat, she felt the


    depletion of spiritual power in her energy core and expressed a bitter smile.


    “Another failure? I’ve already tried two thousand differentbinations, and just over nine hundred


    were sessful. It’s frustratingly challenging to use spirit beast materials in alchemy,” she rued. Having


    spent more than five years on the fifth floor without passing the assessment, Emery felt a tinge of


    disappointment in herself.


    Her attainment was that of a level six supreme saint, and sessful advancement in the tower would


    propel her to the sixth–grade alchemist within half a month. That would have qualified her to vie for the


    core disciple position. Her failure toplete the assessment left her wondering just how long she


    would need to finally be a sixth–grade alchemist.


    “Guess I’ll have to try another time,” Emery mumbled, opting to withdraw herself from the assessment


    due to her depleted spiritual power. As she exited the Alchemy Tower, the crowd erupted in discussion.


    “Emery is out!”


    “She spent over half a year on the fifth floor andpleted several dozen more recipes than thest


    time. Now that shepleted nine–hundred–and–thirty–five recipes, she needs just over sixty short to


    advance to the sixth floor!”


    “I wonder how shepares to Severin in terms of talent.”


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.


    “Severin has concocted’over nine hundred recipes in half a year, and he has shown no sign of stopping


    just yet!”


    “One should never judge a book by its cover. I didn’t think he’d be talented both in attainment and in


    alchemy. He’s only ten pills away from overtaking Emery!”


    Emery was about to leave when she overheard theparisons drawn between herself and Severin.


    ording to the discussions, he had ascended to fourth ce on the leaderboard, having sessfully


    refined over nine hundred kinds of pills. Startled by the revtion, she examined the stone monument


    and found Severin’s name prominently disyed just below hers!


    First ce belonged to the fifth sect leader, while second was Celeste after having reached the sixth


    floor. Third ce belonged to Emery, who was stuck on the fifth floor with over 900 deduced


    prescriptions. Below her was Severin.


    As she read the annotation on Severin, Emery frowned and her eyes widened in astonishment.


    “Severin?


    The newly appointed sixth core disciple?”
