Although Ye Qingchen was brimming with self-confidence, Du Pengcheng felt somewhat uneasy.
When Ye Qingchen readily agreed to refine the Six-Yang Soul Gathering Pill, Du Pengcheng had thought him a bit too young and frivolous. Even though Ye Qingchen successfully refined it and earned his certification as a First-Rank Alchemist, Du Pengcheng still felt that directly challenging for the rank of a Second-Rank Alchemist was somewhat flippant.
While the difficulty of refining the Six-Yang Soul Gathering Pill could rival that of a Second-Rank Spirit Pill, some Second-Rank Spirit Pills were notably more difficult to refine, far beyond what the Six-Yang Soul Gathering Pill could compare with.
Moreover, Ye Qingchen must have sensed the deliberate obstruction during his First-Rank Alchemist certification. It was therefore highly likely that a similar situation would occur during the certification for a Second-Rank Alchemist.
