Treasure-hunting: Into the Unknown

Without a doubt, Zachary knew that their words were meant to ridicule him. Despite this, he still walked into the Alchemist-testing Pavilion in a composed manner.

As soon as he entered the pavilion, a disciple of the Dignified Supernal Sect immediately approached him. The disciple checked his number plate and then ushered him into a room.

The minute he was led into the room, the disciple who escorted him suddenly walked out and closed the door behind him.

Looking around the room, he observed that it was so small that it could only house at most three people. Then, his eyes fell at the stone table at the center of the room, which had three herbs placed gracefully on it.

Meanwhile, outside of the Alchemist-testing Pavilion, Zachary's number plate had already moved up as he beat the others. Now, he ranked third among the five, which instantly caused a commotion to those who had been watching the process closely.

Seeing this, all the disciples present became discombobulated, pushing them to begin guessing this mysterious disciple's identity again.
