Isabella added, “You need to understand that an Elixir Master is really rare among the cultivators. This is because many prescriptions were lost. Most Elixir Masters are reluctant to train to be an Elixir Master as the future is uncertain. This has led to the reduced number of Elixir Masters around.”
Darryl nodded. Isabella was right.
Most people that Darryl knew, no matter whether they were cultivators, or they were from rich and wealthy families, none of them had the knowledge of producing elixir.
Ever since Darryl had mastered the skill of producing elixirs, everyone treated him as their savior.
For example, Megan, the arrogant Goddess, would have to greet him as a brother so that she could obtain a Godly pill.
Or Abby, the famous and powerful person from Donghai City, had been consistently persuading Darryl to train her with the skill of producing elixirs.
Isabella added further, “The objective of the convention was to select the best Master of Elixirs among the Six Sects. During the competition, the elixir that is the rarest will be awarded the highest mark, with the brewer having the highest chance of being champion. The champion will receive a special prize, while the first and second runner up will gain the opportunity to learn a special skill from the Six Sects.”
Wow! There was a prize?
Hearing that, Darryl was excited.
Even though he might not be able to be the champion, no harm in being the first and second runner up.
Isabella went on further, “I am taking part in the Elixir Competition this year. Considering I am short of an Elixir Assistant, and you are so interested in elixirs, you can join me as my Elixir Assistant.”
Isabella added excitedly, “Darryl, the Elixir Competition is only held once every three years. You must appreciate the opportunity and don’t miss it. You will learn a lot.”
Ha-ha!
Darryl took a deep breath and smiled while nodding, “Yes, sure.”
He had no intention to join the competition, but after thinking further, he felt there was no harm in joining. There would be many Elixir Masters present at the competition who probably brought along plenty of raw materials with them. Perhaps he would be able to purchase some raw materials from them. The challenge Darryl was faced was the lack of raw materials.
It was Saturday, there were no lessons at the Hexad School.
A few days ago the oven exploded at the elixir room due to mishandling by Sunny, Darryl was injured during that accident too. Although it was only minor injuries, Darryl could not make it to the dinner plan with Circe.
Lily was discharged from the hospital the day before. With Shelly’s treatment, Lily was recovering well.
Darryl was sleeping soundly in bed when he heard some noises from the door, with a nice scent flowing into the room.
Puff!
The next second, he could feel a pair of warm lips kissing on his lips. Lily smiled, “Dear, time to wake up, the sun is up.”
Lily was grateful she was still alive. She finally understood she needed to appreciate life. She appreciated all the time she had with Darryl.
