Chapter 2816

After all, she had brought Kai along. If she bragged about using the incense furnace to refine pills and it ended up exploding, she’d be embarrassed too!

In reality, she didn’t need to see it to know that Kai would never manage to create a fifth-grade elixir using the incense burner!

Once Zhu Zhu left, Kai picked up the incense burner and began his refining process!

Meanwhile, just outside the alchemy room, Zhu Zhu bumped into Meng He.

“Big Brother Meng, what brings you here to the testing area? Do you have a friend participating in the test, too?”

Seeing Meng He, Zhu Zhu’s face instantly brightened with a smile!

“No, I came here specifically to find you,” Meng He replied.

“Looking for me? What do you need?” Zhu Zhu’s excitement was palpable, and she felt a thrill inside!

“Can’t I come to see you if there’s nothing else going on?” Meng He said with a grin!

Seeing his smile, Zhu Zhu felt her heart melt and quickly nodded, “Of course! Brother Meng can come see me anytime.”

“By the way, didn’t you bring that Kai to the test? How did it go?” Meng He inquired.

“Don’t even get me started! He has no awareness of his own capabilities; he actually attempted to test as a fifth-grade upper-level medicine master and managed to pass the first level by sheer luck,” Zhu Zhu exclaimed. “But now, for the second level, he’s too full of himself. There’s no way he can refine a fifth-grade upper-level pill with just an incense burner!”

“I don’t want to be there to hear him get laughed at, so I decided to leave!”

Zhu Zhu concluded.

“Using an incense burner to refine a fifth-grade superior elixir? That’s quite a stretch,” Meng He remarked, raising an eyebrow. “Which alchemy room is he in? I want to see if he actually has any skills!”

“Brother Meng, he really doesn’t have any skills. In terms of strength and alchemy, that Kai is no match for you!” Zhu Zhu dismissed Kai’s abilities.

If Kai had heard this, he would likely be furious all over again!

“Maybe he can surprise us; let’s go take a look…” Meng He suggested with a faint smile!

“Alright!” Zhu Zhu nodded enthusiastically!

Meng He took Zhu Zhu’s hand, leading her toward the alchemy room where Kai was busy refining pills!

This gesture made Zhu Zhu blush, but she was too excited to care!

As they entered the alchemy room, Kai was fully engrossed in his work!

The examiner glanced at Meng He and Zhu Zhu but said nothing.

Meng He observed Kai, who had his eyes slightly shut, with an incense burner positioned on the floor before him!

The incense burner was emitting a vibrant spiritual fire, with green smoke billowing steadily!

Nearby, a stick of incense had already burned halfway down!

Once the incense finished burning, Kai’s attempt at creating a fifth-grade, semi-finished pill would surely fail!

“Brother Meng, see? Half the time has already passed, and there’s still green smoke coming from the incense burner. There’s absolutely no way this guy will succeed,” Zhu Zhu said disdainfully, eyeing the incense burner in front of Kai.

Meng He remained silent, his gaze fixed intently on Kai.

As silence enveloped the alchemy room, time ticked away, and soon the incense was close to burning out!

Suddenly, a loud bang shattered the tension, and the incense burner in front of Kai erupted, releasing a cloud of white mist into the air.

“Brother Meng, watch out!” Zhu Zhu instinctively shielded him with her body!

The examiner quickly stepped back, his expression showing a flicker of annoyance!

With the alchemy furnace exploding, it was clear that the attempt was unsuccessful!

As the white mist slowly cleared, Zhu Zhu turned to Meng He, concern etched on her face. “Brother Meng, are you okay?”

Meng He shook his head, “I’m fine!”
