The Adventure of All Worlds Starting from Doupo

After a while, Xiao Lin took Xiao Zhen through a series of winding corridors and finally stopped at the door of an office.

There was a guard standing at the door. Xiao Zhen was a little curious. He always felt that the guard's strength was not inferior to those of the family elders of their Xiao family.

Out of curiosity, Xiao Lin directly turned on the system's reconnaissance function and conducted a simple investigation on the guard.

Character: Li Mingguang

Age: 45 years old

Cultivation: Three Star Douling

Xiao Zhen was a little surprised that this guy was actually a Dou Ling. If a Dou Ling of this level were placed in Zhongzhou, he might not even be able to be a gatekeeper.

But if it were placed in the Gama Empire in the northwest corner of the Douqi Continent, it would be enough to serve as a family elder or patriarch of a small family.

Don’t you see that his Xiao family has only five Dou Ling elders? In the entire Jia Ma Empire, with a population of over 100 million, the number of Dou Lings added together does not exceed 100. It can be seen that Dou Ling are not cabbages that can be found everywhere.

Xiao Lin walked to the guard at the door, bowed respectfully, and said gently: "I am Xiao Lin, the head of the Xiao family. I had an appointment with President Fa Ma yesterday, so I came to see you. Please inform me, little brother, this is just a small token of my respect!"

Xiao Lin secretly slipped a ring into the guard's hand. Xiao Zhen, who was standing behind him, saw it all. He had not expected that his father, who was usually so arrogant at home, would be so respectful to a Dou Ling-level guard.

But after thinking about it carefully, Xiao Zhen knew the reason. As a third-rank official in front of the prime minister's door, this Douling guard must be no ordinary guard. It is likely that the person in the office has a special status.

Wait, Xiao Zhen seemed to remember something. His father just mentioned President Fa Ma. If he remembered correctly, he should be the president of the Alchemist Guild. He had seen this old man several times at some banquets before, so Xiao Zhen still had some impression of him.

Fa Ma is not a simple person. He received guidance from Yao Chen when he was young. Although he is not even a registered disciple, his status as a Dou Huang and a fifth-grade alchemist is enough to make him a well-known figure in this small Jia Ma Empire.

Just as Xiao Lin was bribing the guard, a voice came from inside the door.

"Is that Xiao Lin, the Xiao family's patriarch? Xiao Li! Let them in!"

The guard hurriedly returned the storage ring in his hand to Xiao Lin. He didn't know how strong the president's soul perception was. If he knew that he had accepted bribes, he would not be able to continue working. There were countless people outside watching his position. He couldn't make such a low-level mistake.

Xiao Lin brought Xiao Zhen into the office, and Xiao Zhen saw the old man sitting in the main seat at a glance.

The old man sitting in the main seat had some wrinkles on his face, his hair was completely white, and he was wearing a purple alchemist robe. Although he was old, he was still full of energy.

Standing next to him was a middle-aged man with a straight back, who looked like a secretary or something like that.

The old man glanced at Xiao Lin, took a sip of the tea on the table, and then said slowly, "Patriarch Xiao Lin, this must be your son!"

Xiao Lin didn't dare to be arrogant. Although the old man in front of him looked frail, he was much stronger and had higher status than him.

Xiao Lin said respectfully: "This is my youngest son. Please help me see if he has the talent of a pharmacist."

Fa Ma nodded and said in a gentle voice: "Well, according to what we said before, if your son has excellent talent, I will personally take him as my apprentice and teach him how to make medicine in the future.

If his talent is average, we will select a good fourth-grade alchemist from the guild to teach him how to make medicine. But if he doesn't have the talent to be an alchemist, then you can't blame us."

Xiao Lin cupped his hands and said respectfully, "Of course."

Seeing that the words had been made clear, Fa Ma waved to the assistant beside him and ordered: "Qemier, you will check whether this young master of the Xiao family has the talent to become an alchemist."

"Yes, sir!" The middle-aged man behind President Fa Ma responded and walked to the front.

Qie Mier saluted to Xiao Lin and said calmly, "Chief Xiao, I am Qie Mier, the assistant to the president of Fa Mammoth. Next, I will check your son's talent."

Although Xiao Lin was not an alchemist, he could tell at a glance that the guy in front of him, who was a few years younger than him, was just a Dou Ling.

However, Xiao Lin would not underestimate this Chemir. If he was just a Dou Ling, he should be guarding the door outside instead of being an assistant inside. He might also be an alchemist, but he didn't know what level he was.

Qiemier first took out a piece of crystal. Although it was different from the one from the Xiao family, it seemed to be used to test properties.

After Qi Mier explained it briefly, Xiao Zhen placed one hand on the crystal and injected a stream of fighting spirit into it with ease.

As expected, the crystal was emitting blue, red, and a little green light.

After the test was completed, Qiemi nodded to the president behind him, indicating that the attributes passed.

Next, Fa Ma stood up from his seat, walked slowly to Xiao Zhen, and then grabbed Xiao Zhen’s little hand.

Xiao Zhen felt a little nervous. He didn't know what the old man wanted to do. If his father wasn't behind him, he would have screamed.

Fa Ma seemed to notice Xiao Zhen's nervousness, so he comforted him in a gentle tone: "Relax, kid, close your eyes and don't think about other things."

Xiao Zhen swallowed, nodded nervously, then closed his eyes and let the old man Fa Ma do what he wanted.

Xiao Lin, who was standing aside, was also a little anxious. Although he had never seen this scene before, he knew what was going on.

This is President Fa Ma personally testing Xiao Zhen's soul strength. Soul power is also very important for an alchemist.

Fa Ma grabbed Xiao Zhen's hand, and suddenly a gentle power emanated from it, entering into Xiao Zhen's meridians from his hand and traveling around in his body.

Xiao Zhen felt as if his body had been seen through, but the feeling of the gentle power flowing through his meridians made him feel very comfortable. His face turned red unconsciously and he almost cried out in comfort.

After a cup of tea, Fa Ma let go of Xiao Zhen's hand and returned to his seat.

Xiao Lin asked nervously, "President Fa Ma, how is my son's soul power?"

Fa Ma was neither anxious nor impatient. He took another sip of tea and said calmly under Xiao Lin's anxious gaze:

"Your son's soul is very powerful. At his level of cultivation and age, this kind of soul strength is rare, so I will abide by the agreement. From today on, I will accept your son as my student."

Hearing this, Xiao Lin was very excited. He had been running around everywhere for a while and had put in a lot of effort, and finally his efforts paid off.

As long as Xiao Lin takes President Fa Ma as his teacher, it shouldn't be a problem for him to become a fourth-grade alchemist in the future.

In fact, there is a greater benefit to becoming a disciple of President Fa Ma, which is that it allows the Xiao family to have some connection with the Alchemist Guild. This can scare away a large number of opponents for the Xiao family. After all, no one wants to offend the behemoth Alchemist Guild.
