The sudden change left everyone in shock.
Beside the square, there was a place for assessing alchemy and artifact refining. Every year during the grand competition, apart from the major teams competing, alchemy and artifact refining apprentices also undergo assessments.
The assessment determines these apprentices' futures. If they fail, it signifies poor aptitude, and without the backing of a large family, those without such support utterly lose their prospects.
However, passing the assessment means a leap into success, with their status rising from apprentice to alchemist or artifact refiner, welcomed by invitations from major families and a very bright future.
Whether an alchemist or an artifact refiner, they are like money-making machines! As their grade level increases, alchemists and artifact refiners are even more respected than cultivators.
The loud dragon's roar just now came from the assessment site!
