Because there were many people going down the steps, and Ye Jiuyou and the others were followed by others, the guards thought that Yin Ziyu and Ye Jiuyou didn't know each other.
Yin Ziyu turned around and looked over, "These are my friends."
The guard quickly put down his hand and said, "I see, please come in."
When Ye Jiuyou and others entered the door, the guard's voice came from behind again, "May I ask what your name is and what country you are from? We need to leave records of entry and exit."
After walking a certain distance, Yin Ziyu took the initiative and said: "Wangyou Valley usually does not accept outsiders. Everyone who comes in must record their names, otherwise the spiritual plant fields all over the mountains and plains will be in danger."
"Especially since there was an alchemy competition recently, many people came with the contestants, so the guards are tighter."
"Understood, you really can't let people come in at will."
Ye Jiuyou looked at the spiritual plants in the distance. Many of them were old enough to be picked. However, in order to ensure that the medicine would be more effective as time went by, they were all allowed to grow in the medicinal fields.
If this was secretly cut off, the entire Wangyou Valley would be so angry that they would faint.
After passing through the vast green spiritual plant fields, we arrived at the bottom center of Wangyou Valley.
There are all kinds of houses here, basically made of wood and bamboo. There are rows of green bamboos between the houses, which are like natural screens, opening up their own courtyards.
As far as the eye can see, almost everything is green.
Ye Jiuyou was also in a very comfortable mood, this place was a paradise.
When Yin Ziyu came back, everyone in Wangyou Valley greeted him warmly, "Xiaoyu is back!"
"I thought Xiaoyu wouldn't participate in the alchemy competition!"
Yin Ziyu waved towards them and said loudly: "Who said I won't participate! I must participate!"
A middle-aged woman said with a smile: "Then hurry up and sign up, the queue over there is already very long!"
Yin Ziyu nodded and said to Ye Jiuyou on the side: "We will sign up first, and then we will take you around."
After passing through patches of green bamboo forest, I finally saw the bustling crowd in front of me.
There were many people watching the excitement around, but the people lining up were all young people.
Ye Jiuyou looked around and saw that they were all red spiritual masters around the age of twenty, and there were also many red spiritual masters who were nearly thirty years old.
Sure enough, there are people outside the mountain. It turns out that when you walk out of Xiyan Kingdom, there are red spiritual masters or orange spiritual masters in their twenties everywhere.
Ye Jiuyou felt that the trip was worth it.
In addition to the first place in this alchemy competition being able to enter Yanhuo Academy without taking an exam, nine places will be given to them as an exception to allow them to participate in the freshman assessment.
Originally, Yanhuo Academy only allowed young people who had reached the Red Spirit Master level under the age of twenty to take the freshman assessment. However, if you enter the top ten in the alchemy competition, even if you are a Red Spirit Master in your twenties, you can still take the freshman assessment.
Yin Ziyu and Ye Jiuyou walked to the back of the queue and queued up. With the bright sun above their heads, they waited in line for almost half an hour. Finally, it was their turn.
The two people sitting at the table looked up at Ye Jiuyou, "Where do you live?"
Ye Jiuyou answered honestly: "Xi Yanguo."
"Name, age."
"Ye Jiuyou, sixteen years old."
After Ye Jiuyou said this, the two of them stared at Ye Jiuyou with curiosity in their eyes.
"Are you Ye Jiuyou, who ranks first in the Fire Secret Realm?"
Ye Jiuyou nodded, "It's me."
"I heard that you performed very well in the secret realm. I hope you can also perform well in this alchemy competition." The old man said two words of blessing and gave the jade medal in his hand to Ye Jiuyou, "This is for the alchemy competition." Don’t lose your ID badge.”
Ye Jiuyou nodded slightly, took the jade plaque and looked at it. Her appearance, name, and cultivation were already written inside.
The two old men didn't ask her about her cultivation just now. They probably saw her cultivation as a one-star red spiritual master.
"Xiaoyu has come to sign up. Haha, this is your identity card." One of the old men said with a smile and handed an identity card to Yin Ziyu.
Yin Ziyu thanked him and said, "Thank you, Grandpa Elder."
He walked quickly to Ye Jiuyou's side, "Let's go, let's go eat first, and then take you to see the scenery."
Ye Jiuyou turned back and looked at the two old men at the registration desk, "Are these two elders from Wangyou Valley?"
"The person who just spoke to me is another person from the Alchemist Guild." Yin Ziyu took Ye Jiuyou to the other side and explained, "The annual alchemy competition is held by the alchemists in Wangyou Valley. Organized by the three forces of the Guild and Yanhuo Academy, those who perform well in the competition, in addition to being able to join the Yanhuo Academy, may also be favored by the Alchemist Guild, or have the opportunity to stay in Wangyou Valley. In short, it depends on the individual contestants. choose."
Ye Jiuyou was thoughtful and asked curiously: "Is the level of an alchemist determined by the Alchemist Guild?"
"Yes, after becoming an alchemist, if you want to know your alchemist level, you must obtain the alchemist's professional qualification certificate. Otherwise, there is no evidence for what level of alchemist you are. The same goes for other professional qualification certificates. "
Yin Ziyu tilted her head and looked at Ye Jiuyou, "Do you want to take the alchemy master qualification certificate test?"
Ye Jiuyou chuckled and looked at the three Shui Yings walking over not far away, "Just asking."
...
Yin Ziyu took Ye Jiuyou and others back to his yard.
The courtyard is large and surrounded by green bamboos, making it a good place to live in seclusion.
In the yard, an old man with white hair and white beard was sorting out medicinal materials. His white robe was spotless, and his whole person exuded a sense of immortality.
After hearing the footsteps, the old man looked up and said in a kind voice: "Xiaoyu, you brought your friends here to play."
Yin Xunzhi had already received the notice when Yin Ziyu came in with these people.
Yin Ziyu immediately introduced her to her grandfather, "Grandpa, this is Ye Jiuyou, and these are her three guards, Shuiying, Yueluo and Xingchen."
Ye Jiuyou took off the veil on his face and bowed respectfully to the old man in front of him, "Junior, I pay my respects to Master Yin."
The three water shadows also saluted, "Greetings to Valley Master Yin."
Yin Xunzhi stretched out his hand towards Yin Ziyu, who immediately came to him and helped him stand up.
Yin Xunzhi waved to Ye Jiuyou and the others, "Children, come and sit inside."
Several people entered the room. The furnishings in the room were very simple, and Xianyun Yehe's casual feel was everywhere.
Ye Jiuyou smelled the fragrance in the room and faintly smelled it as the fragrance of elixir, and it was of high quality.
Yin Ziyu and Yin Xunzhi said a few words on the side, and soon food was delivered to them.
The people who delivered the food boxes were the alchemists from Wangyou Valley. They were all wearing white clothes with large green bamboo patterns embroidered on their hems. They also had emerald-green belts around their waists, elegance and fairy spirit.
Because they were on someone else's territory, Ye Jiuyou didn't let Feixue out, so the three little guys wouldn't starve to death.
Yin Xunzhi looked at Ye Jiuyou with kind eyes, "Ye Jiuyou is now a one-star red spiritual master. He is indeed a young talent."
Ye Jiuyou quickly put down his chopsticks and said, "You're ridiculous. Yin Ziyu and I have the same level of cultivation. We can't be considered young talents."
Yin Xunzhi continued to ask: "Have you ever been exposed to alchemy before?"
