Knowing the purpose of Ming Yuezhao's visit, Elder Tute's face turned grim. After a moment of contemplation, he decided to reveal the truth.
"Back then, only your father and the hall master knew the location of the ancient domain. If I'm not mistaken, your father should have become the new hall master three years ago."
"But how can there be no accidents?"
"There are two other elders who want to become the hall master. Ten years ago, the hall master went to the headquarters to settle some matters. By the time he returned, your father had already been missing for a month.
"I knew that the two elders were involved in this matter, so I kept a close eye on them. However, I was unable to find anything.
"That was until three years ago when the hall master brought them here. He passed down an order that whoever obtains the heritage in the ancient domain will be the next hall master.
"Oh, the hall master's term has ended, and he will be returning to the headquarters soon to await further arrangements.
"The two elders hold great authority in their hands, so they assigned me to guard the entrance. They even said that welcoming guests is the most important position in the Poison Hall, and it represents the reputation of the hall."
"Pui! In the past three years, three people have come. Oh, no, including you, that makes ten people!"
Looking at the furious Elder Tute, Ming Yuezhao couldn't help but feel a little sad. It seemed like his father's friends weren't doing too well.
His father's death was related to the Golden Fragrant Flower Empire and the two elders here. It would be difficult for him to uncover the truth!
Putting that aside, he had to enter the ancient domain and obtain the heritage to awaken his Poison Body. Once his cultivation rose, it wouldn't be too difficult for him to force out the truth using his poison arts.
As for whether he should become the hall master or not, he still had some thoughts about it. However, he had just turned eighteen, so it was unlikely that he had the ability to do so!
"Elder, I wish to enter the ancient domain!"
"This... You aren't a disciple of the Poison Hall, so you can't enter."
"I know that you wish to obtain the heritage and exact vengeance for your father, but you aren't even an apprentice yet. The rules say that only a grade-2 poison master is qualified to participate in this matter."
Elder Tute shook his head helplessly.
"Don't worry, elder. I have learned quite a bit from my father. It shouldn't be a problem for me to become a grade-2 poison master."
Ming Yuezhao said confidently.
"Really?
That's great! I'll bring you to the examination right now! "
Tute grabbed Ming Yuezhao's arm and led him out.
Zhang Xing was here to help Ming Yuezhao, so he wanted to see how the examination was going to be conducted as well.
In the examination hall of the Poison Hall, upon seeing that it was Elder Tute who had personally led the examinee to the examination, the receptionist immediately provided him with a comprehensive service.
Although Tut didn't have much prestige, and a dignified elder was pushed to the point of being a gatekeeper, he wasn't someone small fries like them could afford to offend.
After preparing everything, Bright Moon Shine started the theory test according to the procedure.
Zhang Xing took a look. It was the same as the Apothecary, Formation Master, and Beast Master examinations. It was all theory and practice.
He thought to himself, why not take this opportunity to take the test as well? It would be easier to do things with a certificate.
"Um, Elder Tutt, can I take the test?"
"What?
You want to take the test too? "
When he heard the question, Elder Tutt tilted his head and looked at him for a long time.
"Have you learned it before?"
He didn't believe Zhang Xuan's words and had a doubtful look on his face. No matter how he looked at it, it didn't seem like a seven-year-old child who had studied poison before.
It was more like the yellow-faced young man who was eating insects.
"Yes, I've been learning … for a day!"
Originally, he wanted to say that he had learned it for one or two hours, but he felt that it was better to say more.
Clang!
The two poison masters in charge of the examination, Elder Tut and Bright Moon Shine, twitched their lips at the same time, and they almost fell to the ground.
A day … You want to take the test after learning it for a day? Are you kidding with us?
Flinging his sleeves, Elder Tutt turned to Ming Yuezhao with an awful expression.
"Your friend is a descendant of a poison master as well?"
"This … They are from a Tier 1 Empire who came here to take the examination to become a Tier 2 Empire," Ming Yuezhao said awkwardly.
That was all he knew. On the day of the examination, Zhang Xing had placed him on the Dragon Island, and when he came out, he was already at the periphery of the ancient domain. He didn't even think of asking about it.
