Path of Alchemy Mastery Chapter 491

After confirming that Mu Can agreed to become his disciple, the academy dean left. But before leaving, he instructed Mu Can to report directly to him tomorrow. A group of teachers looked at Mu Can and congratulated him one after another. Being the disciple of the Divine Wind Academy’s dean is a matter of pride in the whole Sin City. It has been almost two hundred years since the dean last took on a new disciple. The happiest among the teachers was surely Mad Old Demon. A disciple with a super talent is fully capable of inheriting all his teachings. "Spend one day a week to learn Alchemy with me," Mad Old Demon softly patted Mu Can’s shoulder and said gently. Mu Can nodded, as he was becoming more aware of the importance of Elixirs. Even if Mad Old Demon didn’t mention it, he would have actively sought him out to learn. The talent test continued, but essentially everyone’s attention was on Mu Can. A disciple with super talent - the news, if spread out, would probably cause a sensation throughout Sin City. Even those major powers would surely extend an olive branch to Mu Can. Divine Wind Academy had no specific requirements for the graduates’ future paths, so after graduation, as long as you wished to leave, you could choose any side according to your preference. So, in a sense, the disciples listed in the academy’s rankings were targets of competition for various major forces. "Hehe, congratulations," Luo Tian gently thumped Mu Can’s shoulder when he saw him approaching. "I didn’t expect it myself," Mu Can also felt surprised. He didn’t anticipate causing such a sensation on the first day of school. "Someone is really jealous," Luo Tian chuckled, glancing at the gentleman in white. "Hmph...!" The gentleman in white huffed heavily, turning his head away. In his heart, he was truly envious. Had it not been for Mu Can’s unexpected appearance, he would have been the undisputed star of the day. Now, all the limelight had been stolen by Mu Can. Mu Can didn’t really consider this white-clothed fool important; he was just a talented fool who was ridiculously arrogant. The talent test swiftly came to an end. Out of over a thousand participants, only five stood out. Mu Can with Special Grade talent, a young man in white with first-grade talent, a girl with second-grade talent, Luo Tian with top third-grade talent, and a chubby kid with second-grade talent. Aside from the two hundred or so students with third-grade talent, the remaining participants had to undergo a strength test. According to the rules of Divine Wind Academy, if one’s talent wasn’t enough, the standards could be adjusted based on their Cultivation. After the second round of elimination, of those eight hundred plus people, less than fifty qualified. That meant out of the more than a thousand applicants for the admission test, less than three hundred were successful in joining Divine Wind Academy to study. The elimination rate was a terrifying over seventy percent. Students who failed the test left the scene disheartened. Of course, they could come again next time, but most would choose to return to their hometowns. After all, their purpose in coming to Sin City was to cultivate in the Divine Wind Academy. "Those who remain, come over here," a teacher gathered all the successful candidates. Mu Can knew that this was the time for them to select their teachers. The teacher selection at Divine Wind Academy was a double-choice system. That is, teachers have the right to pick students, and students can choose the teachers they like. There are currently about twenty thousand students in Divine Wind Academy, and the teachers number around two hundred. Every month during the entrance test, twenty of these two hundred teachers are chosen to take on disciples. "How will you choose?" At this stage, Mu Can became the most leisurely one. He had already determined his teacher, so he didn’t need to make a choice. "See if there is one that can teach me Beast Taming Technique," Luo Tian’s goal was clear, he came to Divine Wind Academy to find a Beast Tamer to be his mentor. "You five, come here for a moment," Mu Can’s eyes lit up; this should be where students with high talent get special privileges. Indeed, after calling the five of them over, they were given an explanation. Just as Mu Can speculated, Divine Wind Academy did provide some privileges for these students with certain talents. The first was that they had more freedom in choosing teachers compared to ordinary students. To be precise, they could choose any teacher they wished from the two hundred-plus teachers in the academy. The second point was that for the first three months after admission, these few would have double the Academic Points compared to others, which would help them lay a good foundation in the initial period at Divine Wind Academy. Regarding the selection of teachers, except for Mu Can himself, others needed to think carefully. The importance of a teacher in Divine Wind Academy goes without saying, but it’s not always the best to just pick the most famous ones. After all, those teachers each have countless disciples to choose from, they cannot attend to every student thoroughly. The pros and cons have to be weighed by oneself. "I’d like to ask, does the academy have a teacher who specializes in Beast Taming?" Luo Tian was the first to stand up and ask. "Teacher Bing, there’s a student here who wants to choose Beast Taming," upon hearing Luo Tian’s words, the teacher waved towards the only female teacher nearby. "You want to learn Beast Taming?" The teacher evidently didn’t expect someone interested in Beast Taming among these talented students. She hurried over and looked at Luo Tian seriously. Luo Tian nodded, that was his purpose for coming to Divine Wind Academy. "Let me see your Summoning Beast," Teacher Bing looked to be in her twenties, her fiery figure making her look like one of the students. But according to Wang Cai’s words to Mu Can, appearances of youth were not to be trusted. "My Summoning Beast died protecting me," Luo Tian’s face turned somber as he mentioned his Summoning Beast. "I’m sorry," Teacher Bing said softly, and with that, Mu Can’s impression of her improved instantly. As a teacher at Divine Wind Academy, Teacher Bing also knew the circumstances of the academy’s deeds. Students who come here are generally in two situations. The first is those who wish to cultivate in the Divine Wind Academy, and the second is those who have offended powerful enemies outside and come to Sin City to seek refuge. "Then I will take you as my disciple, but if you don’t perform well, Teacher Bing can be very strict." Teacher Bing looked at Luo Tian and spoke slowly. As she finished, a huge tiger suddenly appeared beside her. It was Teacher Bing’s Summoning Beast, the White Cloud Illusion Moon Tiger.
