As Long Feng laid his back on the comfortable bed, his exhaustion quickly led him into the dreamland. Unbeknown to him, being led towards this room would significantly represent his successful enrollment into the pill hall, and from this moment onwards, he will be cultivating to become one of the more well-known pill masters within the Lower Domain of Yan Continent.

In his sleep, Long Feng's body is rejuvenated by the strong essence rich surrounding, greatly increasing the lack of essence qi within his body. Due to the difficult life, Long Feng and his mother are scratching by each single day, the pair of mother and child was forced to reside in the lowest essence density area, as the rent over this piece of land is cheaper than others.

Through this natural absorption, Long Feng's cultivation rise slightly, helping him to smoothly break through the gap between early human refinement tier to middle human refinement tier. Some impurities within his body seem slightly from his pores, making his body seems like he recently returns from a muddy bath.

In the next hour, a total of 11 more participants is brought to the residence area as well, and all of them is led into a different room. Within the residence, each disciple room is strictly for their own usage only, so no sharing or visitors is allowed. The door to each room is locked with a special Qi recognizing stone, which will loosen in both sides if the room owner touched the stone when attempting to return to his own room.

Within the room, a basic furniture is provided, with one special ingredient shelf for its owner to store precious ingredient within. One chest shape box is placed just beside the bed, with two pieces of Qi recognizing stone on both sides, is specially provided for the owner to store their successfully refined products or some of the further use concoction that could be refined into a higher grade resources.

"Junior brothers, wake up!"

"Junior brothers, two more hours will be the time you all need to attend the meeting with Pill Hall master, and also the elders before you all are assigned to the different department to assist in the daily task."

"Make sure you are gathered together before I return to lead all of you to the Grand Hall."

With an announcement of such loud voice, the whole building of people will be startled awake no matter how deep is their sleep. But except this time, only the new intake disciples would be still within the residence building as the other disciple already went out to complete their daily task, and also to attend the extensive classes regarding pill refining and formation.

Not too long after the first announcement, the other senior brothers that completed their daily task returned to their room, for a short break before returning for their additional task.

In the outer division, an estimation of between 30,000 disciples is believed to reside within this mountain peak, which holds a total of about 15 building of huge residence with 2000 rooms each.

The group of 12, included Long Feng, quickly gathered together and followed the senior brother along the way, and being introduced to a different teacher in the different department as they pass by, and also on the open area of the Outer Division, and also the forbidden area that not all disciple can enter.

After some brief introduction, the Outer Division area is divided into a total of 6 area, where the first, is the residential area for all the disciple. The second is the Educational Building, where all the administrative related issue and also the classes conducted by senior elder or teachers will be done within this building.

The third area is called as the Jade Cultivating Land. This whole mountain and its surrounding location are specially reserved for the disciple to cultivate and handle their own ingredient and resources. Of course, other than the most basic size of a farm they are given, any further expansion will be on the disciple own cost.

Hiring or cooperating with another disciple is allowed within this land as well, especially when the capacity of production is in incredible numbers. But one more reason is due to the certain special ingredient, would require a special capability to procure, which made things slightly difficult to obtain and mass produce within the Outer Division.

The fourth area is the Tower of Knowledge. A total of 3 floors, where the only strength of cultivation determine the depth and height of your qualification to enter. It is believed that the more room access you could obtain each floor, the better skill you could view and read, which helps in self and refining improvements.

Each floor stands for a stage, which means this Bronze Pill Hall contain scriptures and notes regarding refining and cultivation up to the tier 3 Practitioner Tier. Each disciple is only allowed to take two books each month from the tower and must be returned after one week. Failure to comply with this rules will results to banned from the tower for a period of time.

The fifth area is the Thousand Training Formation Cave. Within this cave, a total of 4,321 room is available to fight for it and used for a maximum 1 month period of time to cultivate, be it in the field of pill refining, cultivating, or martial art training.

This room and its center of the cave is the only location one could openly fight and challenge another, and open to life bets. Sometimes, some disciple would open their own booth in this particular area, to supply enough medication and also cultivation resources, especially for those who have wealth to spend but hated to slowly accumulate enough resources for their cultivation.

Lastly, is the Elders residence, which is forbidden for any disciple to enter no matter under what condition. Not much information could be known within, but rumors somebody had seen an enormous amount of treasure is laid within the residence for the elder and teacher to cultivate, and it would last for them to cultivate until they reach above King tier.

The group continues their journey, and very quickly, they reach the Inner Division main hall, where the elders and the Pill Hall Master is seated.

"Hall master and Elders, Disciple Liu Feng Ling had brought all 12 new junior disciples for you further guidance and explanations regarding the hall rules and also the important matters."

"Good. You may return to your task now. The Administrative staff will come to reward you for the helpful assistance in guiding all these young juniors to us." Elder Tang Yao spoke, and as he finishes, Liu Feng Ling retreated back to his other duties, leaving the new juniors with the elders and Hall master.

"Young one, I am Hall Master Yang Shao. I am glad this year, there are so many promising students to pass the examination. I know some of you may be born to a less fortunate family, or some of you are not cultivation wise comparable to the other halls."

"But always remember, once you step into the Bronze Pill Hall, you are a Pill master. Be it in training, inexperienced, or failed before, you are still needed by all cultivators to refine, form and create cultivation resources for their improvement."

"In the Outer Division, each disciple would be assigned to one daily duty. You may choose if you excel in a certain part, such as forming pills, handling and cultivating resources, business negotiation, or research in pill knowledge. Every first of the month each disciple would be given a basic pay of 20 Middle-Rank First Grade Cultivation Pellet and 5 Upper-Rank First Grade Cultivation Pellet."

"I believe that the basic rules are already explained by Disciple Feng Ling, so I will go straight to the point."

"in the next 6 month time, is the Thousand Herbal Garden opening time. All disciple that interested to enter the garden, will be required to pay a total of 3 third stage cultivation pellet as entrance fee."

"Meanwhile, I hope you all would do your best to excel, and contribute to making the Bronze Pill Hall become better and better."

"That’s all for now, the others can dismiss."

"Long Feng, Gou Yu, and Nan Jing Jing, stay here, we have something to tell you." the hall master had the others to return to their quarters while the three names are expected to await more order.

"The three of you are the most well-performed participants, so of course it is expected that you would receive some special rewards."

"You may now choose one elder to become your direct mentor, and remember, once a teacher, forever he will become your teacher, father, as well your whole support, make your decision without regretting as you would not be allowed to change anymore." the hall master finished his words, allowing the three of them to consider.

"Gou Yu chose elder Zhi Ruo as my mentor." Gou Yu immediately make up his mind, choosing the female elder as his master.

"Nan Jing Jing choose elder Qian Rui as my mentor." Nan Jing Jing chooses another female elder as her master as well, obviously as she is the only female to pass among the 12 participants.

"Li Long Feng choose elder Tang Wen as my mentor." Long Feng choose elder Tang Wen, as he receives a good praise and attention by the elder.

But as Long Feng finished his word, elder Tu Bo immediately interfere in between of them.

"Xiao Feng, are you sure you want to choose elder Tang Wen? I myself possessed the elemental of lightning. If we combine the strength of your sky element and my lightning element, we could refine top class cultivation resources that could change your life and experience."

"Why not you reconsider your option again? Since you just get to know us elders and the hall master." Elder Tu Bo speaks in his confidence, showing no discomfort when facing the hall master and elder Tang Wen.

Meanwhile, elder Tang Wen does not show any expression, as if this is merely a mundane matter towards him, and will not able to affect him in any way.

Long Feng does not reply nor show any intention on changing his choice, but as he stares on elder Tang Wen his sight becomes more and more firm on his choice.

Elder Tang Wen finally nod in agreement.

"Dear hall master and elders, once chosen, a teacher is equivalent of a father for life. I have decided, I will not let my teacher to be disappointed."

"Good, that’s the spirit. One always need to remember, even if luck is not on your side when you are walking along your path, but always remember that what pass when you are walking, is what mold you into today. Nothing happen in your life is worthless." the hall master speaks.

"Follow your respective master to their private room, and grow as much as you could, to prepare for the Thousand Herbal Garden opening." the hall master finished his word, and conclude the meeting. Elder Tu Bo is furious for this embarrassing moment, so he is the first one to leave the hall after the hall master.

Quietly, Long Feng follow behind elder Tang Wen, straight to one of the rooms in the inner division. The inner division is double the size of the outer division, yet the number of disciples within is only roughly 10,000, two third less than the outer division.

"Xiao Feng, tell me one thing." Elder Tang Wen started to talk to Long Feng.

"Yes, Master. Please ask." Long Feng replied without hesitation.

"Why don’t you go to Tu Bo just now, his Lightning Elemental have great capability to strengthen the refining, and he got great experience too in pill making." Elder Tang Wen continue.

"Master, there is too many advantageous and attractive distractions throughout life, and elder Tu Bo is one of them. But to think it more clearly, why not I chose a master who knows my upbringing and attitude, nature and capability but goes to one that promises me plenty of advantages? One should always fight for improvement, not expecting for golden rainfall to drop on his doorstep." Long Feng explained.

"Do you mean that you could learn more by my side ?" Elder Tang Wen laugh out loud while replying.

"Yes Master, I believe I could learn even more from you compared to elder Tu Bo."

"This place is called as the Peacekeeper of Virtue Hall. Within this place is my personal place where I spend all my time to cultivate and grow ingredients that are good enough to be harvested and refine into various medicine for cultivators."

"Come here daily for your basic lesson, meanwhile, in this hall, you are free to harvest any ingredient for your practice, but half of the successful refinement will be required to be handed over, that’s the rule within this Bronze Pill Hall."

"Do you have anything to ask me ?" elder Tang Wen understand that he had given too much information to this new direct disciple of his. But what he have yet to mention is, there is no other disciple under elder Tang Wen, so Long Feng is the only disciple of his for now, perhaps even in future.

"Master, can Xiao Feng start follow master around starting from now ?" Long Feng's eye is slightly widened the moment he went into this hall. Although the design of this hall is simple, through a very detailed inspection, this planting formation is very well designed for the growth of the plants and herbs, allowing them to nurture each other through breathing in the air alone.

"Xiao Feng.. Go report and get a basic task first."

"And... Come back after that. Master will be here until evening, so if you are so interested in this plants, you can have this key but make sure you return to your residence before midnight, else you will disturb me because of your curfew." Elder Tang Wen throw a set of Qi Recognizing Stones to Long Feng as he finished his word, and start tending the plants.

For Long Feng, this means approval for him to stay here if he wants, as long he finish his task.

With haste, Long Feng run like he was chased by hell beast as he charged towards the Education Hall. Registering and choosing the task of refining medicine of First Grade Pills. As he left, he accidentally takes note on a piece of notice on the wall, with some information within that interest him a little.

Medicinal Supplying Intern

Requirement Skill: None (disciple with good knowledge and basis is preferred)

Employment period: 3 Weekend starting from this week

Payment: One Medicinal Scripture especially from Bronze Pill Hall Assistant Master, Liu Yi Long.

"I can try for this position!" Long Feng quickly grab the piece of paper and return to the Virtue Hall to view Elder Tang Wen's daily work, before he ordered to return to room as the evening came close.

Within the room, Long Feng had difficulties to sleep due to his anxiety of the surprises his next day will come to him.

"Learning with master really open my eyes. I would never imagine that by placing the Hundred Layered Moss together with the Blood Fruit will actually cause the soil to become rich with metal elemental, which will naturally refresh the soil condition of the Ironwood Shoots, that required to be harvest as they sprouts."

"And also, to pollinate the Dragon Fang Flower, the master is willingly sacrificing the Fire Breathing Fruit's main stem to the Fire Striped Bees to bring back to their nest, creating the flow of natural cooperation between the bee and the flower, so the human could benefits."

"Ah! I need to make sure to remember this! Master purposely recite it loudly so I pay attention to listening."

"For flower based medicinal ingredient and resources, it is best to allow it to grow naturally, only thing human can help would be providing essential essence qi to allow them to grow in the best way. Force feeding will only result in less matured and lack of growth ingredients, which will affect the quality during refinement."

"I wonder will master tend the pots that were arranged in the eight directions apart from the center? Each pot of the plant seems to be special as there aren't too many of them within the Virtue Hall."

And soon enough, Long Feng fell asleep in the middle of reminding himself about what he had seen for the whole afternoon.
