Life After Prison Chapter 1922
Needless to say, fatigue was starting to overwhelm Severin. His bloodshot eyes betrayed the strain that he experienced due to lack of sleep, and the once surging spiritual power in Severin's energy core had dwindled."Just a few dozen to go. I might be able to move on to the sixth floor if I endure this a little longer. Entry to the sixth floor will mark my induction as a sixth-grade alchemist!" Severin gritted his teeth and forced himself to continue.He continued to study the material and carry out meticulous experiments to ascertain its viability for crafting. Unbeknownst to him, his achievements had roused much excitement outside of the tower. Many disciples witnessed Severin's steady climb in the rankings, and a substantial crowd was drawn to the Alchemy Tower. Severin's name, long etched on the stone monument, had climbed steadily from the hundredth place to the fourth in just half a year. Only a dozen pills separated him from Emery, who held the third spot.At the same time,

Upon hearing Emery's question, a disciple beside her nodded slowly and answered, "Yes. That's him!""He entered the Alchemy Tower six months ago, and he's been progressing rapidly after passing the first floor's assessment," the disciple said with admiration.Severin's ascent in the Alchemy Tower's rankings in the past six months, coupled with news of his victory over Shyam, led more and more disciples to become curious about Severin's accomplishments. In response, many more people had gathered near the Alchemy Tower, as they were eager to witness just what kind of a person Severin was.Emery's expression became stern as she absorbed all the information.She about Severin from six months ago when he had been accepted as the sixth core disciple. She was envious of his sudden rise and was curious about his abilities because of the exception that Oskar, the sect leader, had made for him.Despite being one of the Sixth Mountain's prodigious alchemists, Emery believed her skills rivale

A successful breakthrough to sixth-grade alchemist would give her a chance to challenge Severin for the position of the sixth core disciple!When Emery returned to the Alchemy Tower, the surrounding disciples immediately looked over to her."She's going back in!""Gasp! She probably feels that her position is under threat. I think she's aiming to clear the fifth floor and reach the sixth!""I can't wait to see who edges the other in the contest."As Emery entered the Alchemy Tower again, she noticed the number of recipes annotated to his name on the stone monument had increased from the original 927 to 928! The narrowing gap left all the disciples in shock. Any discerning observer could see that Severin was less than ten recipes away from surpassing Emery! Once he did, his name would then rise above hers, and he would then third place in the Alchemy Tower's rankings!There was no shortage of amazement and awe from the surrounding disciples. In the six months since he entered the

Half a month later, Severin's bloodshot eyes were almost completely red, and he had completely taken on the appearance of an almost deranged individual. For some reason, however, Severin was aglow with excitement and anticipation, rather than fatigue!Over the past half month, he had finally achieved his formidable goal of concocting 1,000 different types of pills. Credit was due, of course, to his unwavering perseverance. Despite the depletion of spiritual power in his energy core, a genuine smile finally graced Severin's face.Just as he completed that milestone, the surroundings underwent a swift and ephemeral transformation. A voice that had last spoken to him more than six months ago echoed in his ears, "You have passed the assessment and may advance to the sixth floor."After breathing a sigh of relief, felt as if the energy in his body had been sucked dry. He was feeling incredibly weak, and more than half a year of incessant dedication had taken its toll on him. The constant

Severin's name was associated not just with being the sixth core disciple—it was also synonymous with being an alchemical genius! The disciples in the area erupted in enthusiastic exclamations at Severin's feat."He made it! He cleared the fifth floor!""Severin has successfully advanced to the sixth floor!""None of us expected him to be the first to reach the sixth floor!""I shudder to think of the talent he possesses! How did he even complete the assessments so rapidly?"More and more disciples paid attention to the Alchemy Tower ever since Emery re-entered it. Most were aware of the ongoing competition between Emery and Severin within the Alchemy Tower. As the days began to pass, disciples gathered near the open area in eager anticipation of the outcome between two alchemical giants!Emery's admirers displayed high confidence in her abilities in the beginning, and the open area soon became a battleground where supporters of both sides did not give in to the other.While Eme

Emery could not bear to witness her concede her position, but her pride had taken a hit of vulnerability when she faced the undeniable reality. In the past, she had been hailed as the Sixth Mountain's prodigy. The gap between herself and Celeste would be minimal, if not entirely absent, if Celeste did not have the Forest Constitution. Being spoken in the same breath as Celeste had imparted Emery with not just confidence but a touch of arrogance too. It was intensified all the more by her countless admirers.Having struggled for three years without breaking through the fifth level, the news of Severin's achievement in just half a year hit Emery hard despite her laughing off previous comparisons between her and Severin. While she might lag in attainment talent compared to a core disciple like Severin, she deemed herself to possess a superior proficiency in alchemy.As she contemplated her chances of being the first to reach the sixth-grade alchemist and possibly even challenging Severi

Even if Severin were to fail the assessment, he was determined not to let go of an opportunity to gain valuable experience. Severin shook his head and gazed at the vast array of material before him. "Let me secure a breakthrough to sixth-grade alchemist before moving on from there."Severin opted once again to craft the Prima Spirit Pill and use it as the avenue to become a sixth-grade alchemist. He had limited experience with that pill, after all, and each failed attempt contributed to his understanding of crafting them.After formulating his game plan, he located the materials and meticulously followed the steps. For his first attempt, he tossed the materials into the cauldron one by one, but the cauldron roared and emitted a puff of black smoke—signs of another failure. Undaunted by the setback, he remained undeterred and felt a renewed determination that only grew with every failed attempt.The subsequent failures did not dampen his enthusiasm in the slightest, and Severin persi

Evening came, and Emery stood in silence by the entrance of the Alchemy Tower as she looked at the third-placed name on the ranking list—Severin Feuillet. She appeared exhausted, and even the luster of her eyes had dimmed slightly. Despite her continuous efforts during her third attempt, she managed to concoct only 998 pill recipes, falling short by the last two needed to complete the assessment. Mentally exhausted from all that exertion, she reluctantly left the place.That ordeal marked Emery's first encounter with defeat and frustration. He looked at Severin's name again and uttered with a bitter smile, "Just how talented are you!"She had strived for several years and failed the test thrice, yet Severin had passed it all in just over half a year. It was a huge blow to Emery's ego, especially since she had once asserted that her alchemical prowess could rival that of Celeste.Emery left the Alchemy Tower in despair, haunted by the thought of Severin wresting away her third place.
