You made it.\" The elder alchemist greeted warmly: \"Come, let me introduce you to some colleagues.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He led Ron towards several distinguished alchemists and made brief yet appropriate introductions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is Adrian, specializing in healing potions;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is Sofia, with unique research in spiritual enhancement potions;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And this is William, a master of alchemy and potion integration...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron greeted each alchemist politely, mentally noting their specialties and characteristics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These were potential sources of knowledge and collaboration partners.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ladies and gentlemen, this is Ron, the young genius I’ve mentioned.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Magnus said with a smile: \"Having just become a Professional Alchemist not long ago, he has already shown extraordinary talent, especially in potion modifications.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The senior alchemists’ gazes immediately turned more attentive, with admiration as well as a hint of scrutiny.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Young man, I’ve heard you have a special talent called ’Medicinal Body Resonance’?\" Adrian asked, eyes filled with academic curiosity, as the news seemed to have already spread.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron displayed modesty appropriately: \"Yes, my perception of potion ingredients seems to be keener than most, giving me some advantages in potion modifications.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He chose his words carefully, neither exaggerating his abilities nor undermining his confidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sofia nodded, her expression thoughtful:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This talent is indeed rare. I once read in ancient texts that alchemists with the ’Medicinal Body Resonance’ ability often achieve remarkable accomplishments in a short time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron smiled slightly: \"You flatter me. I have a long way to go, and I hope to learn a lot from all of you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Speaking of which, what works did you bring to share with us?\" William asked curiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron took out several crystal bottles from a delicate wooden box he carried and carefully placed them on the display table:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"These are some recently modified formulas, including the Gray Scale Protection Ointment and the revised version of the ’Amber Thought Liquid’ potion.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He briefly introduced the features and innovations of each potion, his tone calm yet confident.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The senior alchemists gathered around, showing keen interest in these potions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially the ’Amber Thought Liquid,’ its unique formula design and effect sparked widespread discussion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This formula structure is very creative,\" Sofia praised while carefully inspecting the formula blueprints Ron provided:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How did you think of combining Moonlight Grass with Silver Star Vine, two seemingly conflicting materials?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron explained his thought process, how he used a special treatment method to neutralize their antagonism while retaining their beneficial components.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Interesting, very interesting!\" William exclaimed excitedly: \"This way of thinking is quite similar to some principles in alchemy. Young man, have you studied alchemy?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Recently, I’ve indeed been learning some basic knowledge.\" Ron admitted: \"I believe there are many areas where Magic Potion Making and Alchemy can learn from each other.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Absolutely correct!\" William enthusiastically patted his shoulder:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am one of the practitioners of this approach. If you are interested, you’re welcome to exchange ideas at my workshop. Cross-disciplinary research often leads to unexpected breakthroughs.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was exactly what Ron hoped to hear, and he earnestly expressed his gratitude and anticipation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the conversation deepened, Ron not only shared his experiences but also gained many valuable suggestions and insights.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The senior alchemists were quite satisfied with this young newcomer’s performance, each expressing the desire for further exchange in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Halfway through the gathering, Magnus found an opportunity to speak privately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ron, you’ve performed outstandingly,\" the elder alchemist praised: \"Especially your humble attitude and eagerness to learn has left a great impression on everyone.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you for your guidance and introduction, Master Magnus,\" Ron sincerely replied: \"I’ve gained a lot from this gathering.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Magnus nodded, then lowered his voice: \"I have some good news for you, Corina recently mentioned you, she’s very interested in your progress.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron’s heart skipped a beat; Corina was the powerful Wizard who had brought him from the Kingdom to the Black Mist Jungle and Trish’s mentor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What did she say?\" Ron asked cautiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She seems particularly interested in your special talent and rapid progress.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Magnus said meaningfully:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At the upcoming Candidate Wizard sequence quarterly meeting, she might take a closer look at you. This is a rare opportunity, having the attention of an Official Wizard.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron felt a bit nervous, knowing Corina’s attention was a double-edged sword—both an opportunity and a potential danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you for the reminder, I will be prepared for it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Magnus patted his shoulder, eyes filled with encouragement:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t be too nervous, just be yourself and showcase your abilities and potential. Wizards appreciate genuine talent rather than contrived performances.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the end of the gathering, Ron exchanged formulas and insights with several alchemists, gaining a lot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the way back to the workshop, his mind had already drifted to the upcoming Candidate Wizard sequence quarterly meeting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>.........\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first ray of morning sunlight had just penetrated the eternal mists of the Black Mist Jungle, and Ron was already seated cross-legged in the Meditation Room, immersed in deep meditation with the \"Star Eater’s Ravings.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since successfully activating his bloodline, the improvement in his constitution had facilitated smoother spiritual power flows, thus enhancing the depth of his meditation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The starry sky in his Spiritual World had become increasingly distinct, the starlight flickering as if within reach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the accumulation rate of spiritual contamination had not decreased compared to before, the improvement in his constitution had increased his bearing capacity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Ron was wandering within the star map, a faint fluctuation entered his perception.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t ordinary interference but rather the special frequency of a vine lightly touching the ground—Ailan’s warning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron gently exhaled, slowly withdrawing his scattered consciousness, and opened his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master, there is a visitor,\" Ailan’s vine waved gently outside the door, with neat words appearing on the leaf writing board.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who?\" Ron asked with slight curiosity, as it was rare for visitors to come at this hour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A beautiful lady with brown hair, accompanied by a leopardess...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ailan’s leaves trembled slightly, seemingly quite interested in the visitor too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron raised his eyebrows slightly, a subtle smile appearing at the corner of his lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only brown-haired girl he knew was Trish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since establishing his workshop, although rumors had spread, she hadn’t come to visit, and now she finally made her appearance a month later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please have her wait in the reception room. I’ll be there shortly.\" Ron stood up, straightening his robe, brushing off nonexistent dust from his sleeves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ailan nodded and left, her vine drawing an elegant arc through the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron stood in front of the mirror, carefully examining himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the changes after the bloodline activation were subtle, they were noticeable in ways that ordinary people would miss, but for an Intermediate Apprentice, they would probably be apparent at a glance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wondered to himself, \"What could be her purpose for this visit? And why did she choose this particular time to come?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1363,"2026-05-29T14:43:43.887Z","2026-06-01T04:29:33.427Z",1,"novelbin.me","77e50e2152bac30ee91276a77d675cb3107155f01413d2864a10b3e24583c338","wizard-unlimited-profession-slots-chapter-145","wizard-unlimited-profession-slots-chapter-143",911,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fwizard-unlimited-profession-slots-cover.jpg"]
