The alchemist's entrance exam was uncomplicated . It was to create the easiest potion from all, the basic health potion .

Alchemy was different from blacksmithing . In blacksmithing, the blacksmith would need a blueprint, and that said blueprint would also be consumed . However, the alchemy was slightly different .

Alchemy didn't consume the potion recipe that was used . However, the alchemist still needed to bring the potion recipe if they wanted to create some potions . This was also one of the reasons why alchemy was more popular than blacksmithing .

As long as they fulfilled the minimum alchemy's skill level and had the recipe, they could make the potions . Actually, the basic health potion needed one to be a level 1 Junior Alchemist . However, for the sake of the examination, the alchemy's hall already created a simpler formula from it .

And, that formula was the one that was used for this entrance examination, the [Training - Basic Health Potion] . Although it was a simpler one, the difficulty was not that much different from the original [Basic Health Potion] .

Auron took the recipe and went to the rack full of herbs . There were two stages in alchemy . The first stage was to prepare the ingredients . Meanwhile, the second stage was the most essential, the creation stage .

Auron never had any experience at all in the alchemy field . However, from what he heard, alchemy was simple and easy . As long as you follow the steps at the potion's formula correctly, it would result in success .

Actually, what Auron heard was half right . The first few potion formulas that could be bought in the alchemy hall was truly easy . However, as the potion level raised, it also became more complicated . Hence, the difficulty increased significantly .

That was also the reason many alchemists stuck at the Medior level and could not increase further . Many of them even became desperate and changed their side cla.s.s . However, some of them also still satisfied with the income from that few basic potions formula and kept the cla.s.s .

Auron looked at the potion's formula then at the herb's rack to find the ingredients . The rack was full of herbs . Among them, not all of them were the herb's used for the potion's formula . Some were used for higher-level potions . There even an ordinary wild gra.s.s inside the rack .

Even though Auron didn't have any experience in the field of alchemy, but with his experience playing the game, he knew which herb was an alchemy ingredient and which not . Moreover, this potion's formula was not that difficult . In no time, Auron had picked all of the ingredients he needed .

Auron brought all of the ingredients he needed to the work table . Then, he started to work on the ingredients . For this kind of potion, the preparation required was not complicated . Auron only needed to cut some parts of the herbs that were not used . After that, he would need to grind the herbs until it became crushed .

However, what made this difficult was the amount of the herbs that used was a lot . Not only that but the piece that needed to be cut also had to be precise . If it was cut a millimeter short, then the potion would be ruined .

Auron started to take a knife and cut the herbs one by one . He separated the part that was needed and the unnecessary part . There were more than 50 kinds of herbs that he needed to prepare, even though this potion was a lower level one .

Fortunately, since the herbs used was also a low grade one, there was no time limit on how long they prepared the ingredients . Some higher-grade herbs were kept inside a medicine box to prevent the herbs' medicinal effect leaked out . So, if an alchemist was using that kind of herbs, there was a time limit for them for the potions produced to be a good one .

Auron took his time carefully . He wanted to take his time calmly and used this chance to learn about the alchemy world .

Auron measures a part of the herbs using his hands . Then, slowly he would use his knife to cut down the unnecessary piece . After finis.h.i.+ng preparing a herb, he would go to the next herb .

After everything being cut, some herbs needed to be crushed until it became soft . So, Auron took a grinder and crushed it until it became mush . Then, he moved to the next herb .

It took Auron for almost 1 hour to prepare the ingredients needed . It was considered a long time for an alchemist to use this much time to prepare these kinds of ingredients .

The examiner looked at Auron carefully . He didn't comment on anything and just took note of his paper . He looked at the time and shook his head .

The examiner felt that the time Auron used was too long . He minus some of Auron's score . Unfortunately, for Auron, his examiner this time was somewhat strict . He would not spare even to a beginner like Auron .

Although Auron's score was reduced . But, it would not affect his pa.s.sed chance as long as he could produce the potions successfully .

For this alchemy's test, the score from this test would be used to determine how much initial alchemy points would be given to him .

Just like crafting points, this alchemy points would be used to buy the alchemy materials and some recipe in the alchemy hall .

And, Auron had already got a reduced point because of his long time preparing the ingredients . However, Auron would not know that until he received his score later .

After Auron finished grinding all of the herbs, he arranged the herbs around the alchemy pot that would be used for the second stage . Soon, he would go into the second stage of alchemy .
