The Soldier's Unsurpassable Honor novel Chapter 2390

After a long time, Mr. Simmons nodded and replied," Since you've come here to be a student, you should be mentally prepared to be one.

"My nephew asked me for this favor, so I'll naturally agree to it. Gilbert, go find a room for him. In the future, you'll be his senior. Remember to bring him along wherever you go."

Gilbert tried his best to control his expression that was about to sour. He let out a stiff smile and uttered," Don't worry, I'll take good care of him."

Even though he did his best to control his tone, Fane could still feel something amiss despite the plain nature of his words. He glanced at Gilbert.

Gilbert looked quite friendly, but Fane could feel a coldness behind that warm exterior. Gilbert was incredibly unhappy at Fane's arrival. It was as if Gilbert was afraid that Fane would steal his position.

That surprised Fane. Gilbert did not even give Fane a chance to speak before he raised his right hand and stood aside, inviting Fane elsewhere.

"Come with me, I'll arrange somewhere for you to stay. From today on, you'll be one of my fellow students in Heavenly Pills."

Fane nodded. After that, he turned to look at Chandler. Chandler let out a sigh before he nodded earnestly.

"I'll be leaving at noon tomorrow. Before I leave, I want to treat you to a meal. You mustn't refuse."

Chandler emphasized his words very heavily. Fane was still quite thankful to Chandler. Since Chandler was willing to treat him to a meal he would naturally not refuse it.

After nodding, he followed Gilbert. They went toward the back door of the hall. When Fane disappeared, Mr. Simmons turned around to look at Chandler.

"I remember Heavenly Pills accepted twenty students two years ago," Chandler said after taking a sip of tea.

He had been asking for Fane's sake, but he was curious himself as well.

Mr. Simmons nodded, "You remember quite well. That year, we did accept twenty students."

He let out a dry laugh while saying, "Yet, there was only one who was able to become a sixth-grade alchemist. There are so few people who can understand the Way of the Pill and condense pill auras.

"It's so hard to produce even one sixth-grade alchemist, let alone seventh or eighth-grade ones... There is only one eighth-grade alchemist in Heavenly Pills. The eighth-grade alchemist is basically the living ancestor. He doesn't trouble himself with general affairs."
