Yilio didn't want anything other than cut Krune in pieces. Still, he couldn't deny that Krune's achievement before the explosion was amazing too. In the end, he just sighed and said.
"Alright, follow me for now."
Krune didn't say anything and did as asked.
Yilio then brought Krune to another examination room that was destined fro Silver Stars Tests.
"Before your pill failed, I could see that it had each the level of a Five Silver Stars pill. Still, that is also due to the level of the herbs and the other ingredients. I will give you another chance to try to make the pill, but this time, you will use much older herbs. With this, you shouldn't have a problem with an explosion due to the poor quality of the items."
Yilio continued.
"Also, because those herbs can hold a lot more spiritual and elemental source energy, they are harder to concoct. You probably won't be able to achieve the same level as you did previously. But I believe you can reach the Silver Stars anyway, so give your best."
Krune then asked something else.
"What about the room and the equipment? Also, what's the fee for a Silver Star test?"
Yilio answered straight away.
"The branch will calculate the damage and give you the fee to be paid after. As for the price of the Silver Stars test, it is 100 Rank 5 Spirit Stones, which will be included inside the damage fee."
Krune couldn't help but sigh. Still, he knows that it was his fault that things went out of control. If he had paid attention, he would have noticed that the medicinal liquid inside the cauldron couldn't hold anymore.
"Alright."
Krune then entered the booth in the other examination room and selected the same pill again. This time, he chose the Silver Star level, so the herbs and other ingredients that he got were a lot older and more capable of holding energy.
The process of the concoction went the same way as before, but Krune soon noticed a big difference.
'Silver Level herbs are a lot harder to infuse spiritual and elemental source energies than the normal ones. There is no way I can achieve the level that I did before with them. Of course, it is thanks to this resistance that I don't have to be afraid of how much energy I use. Even though it's harder, the amount of power that they can hold is several times higher too.'
After using the extreme infusion technique, Krune was able to bring it to the Silver Star level again. It's just that this time the pill could only reach the Two Silver Stars level, and that was after Krune put his all on it!
Yilio took the Foundation Stabilizing pill and nodded.
"Good! This pill can definitely be used by Core Formation Realm or maybe even some early stages Divine Soul Realm. Congratulations, from now on, you are a Two Silver Stars Alchemist."
Krune sighed in relief.
"Follow me to the office, I will get your qualification registered in the system. During your concoctions from now on, if possible, try to do it inside the organization branches. The rooms are equipped with formations for protection against cauldron explosions and anti-Divine Sense. Also, they are able to detect if the Alchemist inside has concocted a pill above his rank. If that happens, the organization will just check your pill and register you in the new rank."
Krune nodded. It was simply the same function as the Alchemist Badge back in the Luvile Universe.
Yilio left after they arrived at the registration office, and Krune started to wait for the attendant to come. Not long after, a few more alchemists came in as well to do the same thing. They were the alchemists that were first making the same test with Krune. The noticed Krune's presence and showed quite a few ugly faces.
They couldn't be blamed. After all, Krune destroyed the room while they were in the middle of the concoction. In the end, Krune could only apologize.
"I'm sorry for the previous event. I didn't expect that the medicinal liquid wouldn't be able to hold the energy."
The majority just ignored him, but there was still one who just sighed and came forward to talk.
"Well, as long as I got your apology, I don't mind. Still, what did you do to generate such a big explosion? Did you try to use the Extreme Infusion Technique?"
His name was Carlo Cabral, someone from another universe as well. Of course, different from Krune, he came into the Dalin Universe legally. Also, as someone from one of the powerful universes, he already knew about the Extreme Infusion Technique even before reaching this place.
Krune nodded.
"Yes. It was the first time I tried that. I had no idea about the existence of this technique, so I got fascinated by it. But in the end, that was the result. Even though the medicinal liquid inside got to the Silver Star level, I failed to notice that the herbs and other ingredients couldn't take energy anymore. Such an embarrassing outcome."
Carlo was surprised by that. Not because Krune used the Extreme Infusion Technique, but because he was still able to bring the pill to the Silver Star Level! Just as he was about to continue asking, the attendant in the room called Krune over.
"Krune, your Two Silver Stars qualification is ready. Please give me your ID and some other information."
Krune nodded and bid farewell to Carlo.
Carlo, of course, was once again taken aback.
'Did she just say that he got a Two Silver Stars qualification? Wasn't today the very first time that he used the Extreme Infusion Technique? I know that he was brought away to remake the test. But to think that he was able to create a Two Silver Stars Pill is unbelievable! Just what kind of monster control is that?'
Carlo wasn't the only one. In another room in the same branch, Yilio was talking with the current supervisor, Ramon Forkin.
After hearing Yilio's explanation, Ramon decided to take a look in the concoction video and couldn't help but ask.
"Are you sure he said that it was his first time using the Extreme Infusion Technique?"
Yilio nodded.
"Yes. Of course, Krune might be lying, but I don't think he would explode the entire examination room just to prove the contrary. I can tell that his concoction is very unrefined, and he made the mistakes that others do when making a Silver Star pill for the first time. Still, his elemental and energies control can only be said to be heaven-defying for someone at his level. With that alone, he was still able to make a Two Silver Stars Foundation Stabilizing pill."
Ramon pondered a bit and then said.
"Anyway, the fact that he is a genius at concoction is obvious. Even if he lied that it wasn't his first time using the Extreme Infusion Technique, just that level of control is already impressive enough. We will know the truth sooner or later once he stars concocting pills for selling. After all, he has to pay for the damage in the first examination room."
Ramon looked at Yilio and then said.
"Charge the max price for everything that was destroyed. I want him to stay here as long as possible for me to check his alchemist skills. If it turns out that it was really his first time using that technique, then his ability at concoction will improve by leaps and bounds from now on. Depending on the result, we might use him in the next solar system junior concoction championship."
Yilio wasn't surprised since that was the reason why he reported Krune.
"Yes, it would be best to have someone to participate with me. That way, our chances of getting a better position will increase. His realm is evident for everyone to see, 4th Stage of the Core Formation Realm. I just need to check his age when he finishes his qualification registration. As long as he is under 35 years old, we should be good to go."
Ramon nodded.
"Good! You can go now."
Krune, who was going through the registration process, didn't know anything about that. Sometime later, another worker from the Alchemist Organization entered the room where Krune was.
"Here is the total that has to be paid for the damage and the Siver Stars Test."
Krune took a look at the number, and his soul almost left his body!
"1532 Rank 7 Spirit Stones?! Are you serious?!"
The attendant nodded.
"The herbs, equipment, formations, and the room itself. All together is definitely worth at least this much. Of course, you don't need to be afraid of paying it. You are already a Two Silver Stars Alchemist, so it shouldn't be too hard to pay everything with. Not to mention that we are not charging the price for the time that the examination room will be deactivated."
Krune couldn't help but sigh. Still, he took out the payment and passed it to the worker.
"Here it is, 1532 Rank 7 Spirit Stones."
The worker didn't know anything about what was decided, so he didn't think that anything was strange. At most, he believed that Krune was some rich young master. But there was another person watching this scene, and that was Yilio!
"He can pay that? It seems like I will need to think about another reason to keep him working here."
But before he even started to think, he heard Krune's next words.
"Will it be a problem if I want to use the alchemist rooms anyway? Senior Yilio said that I should try to use them if possible."
Yilio's eyes immediately lit up!
"Great!"
In fact, Krune didn't have another choice to start with. Sure, he could go to another alchemist branch in the city since it had more due to the city's size. But it would be a lot further away from the place where his group is staying at the moment. With the city's flying restriction, it would be troublesome to make the round trip every time.
Also, Krune wanted to start as soon as possible so that he can gather enough Spirit Stones to buy or at least rent a courtyard for everyone.
The worker immediately nodded after hearing that question.
"Of course. As long as you don't destroy it, we don't mind letting you use our facilities. The majority of the alchemists of our branch do it anyway."
Krune nodded and decided to go back to his room. It was already getting dark, and he wanted to see what plans Feifei and Tiane had as well.
'We will need to work together if we want to increase our profits as fast as possible.'
