Transmigrated Scoundrel's Exchange System

Numerous families arrived, including the Ren, Ma, and Xu families. Han Cai noticed that the Hu, Qi, Pei, and Xu clans had also arrived. The young masters of the Hu and Qi families, Hu Lei and Qi Ming, and the young lady of the Pei family, Pei Yao, were also going to the sect. Hu Lei and Qi Ming were both fourteen, making this their last attempt at the sect\'s test. This was Pei Yao\'s first attempt, while her sister, Pei Xue, was already a disciple of the Azure Dragon Sect. Hu Lei and Qi Ming\'s elder cousins, Qi Jian and Hu Jun, were also outer sect disciples, but as this was their third time attempting the sect\'s test, people\'s expectations for their success were low. The Xu clan was bringing another seed for the tournament, their daughter had already returned to the sect.

The Hu, Qi, Pei, and Xu families also opted for level two accommodations, while most other families chose level three. Only the Ren family went for level four. Outer sect disciples from the group standing outside  led everyone to their accommodations, and the process continued for two more days.

After everyone had settled in, the patriarch and Great Grandpa Rui went to greet all the clans, especially the Xu clan, as they were going to become in-laws that year if everything worked out. The outer sect elder of the Azure Dragon Sect announced that the ship would soon depart, so everyone needed to return to their accommodations.

A few hours later, the ship took off and began its journey toward the Azure Dragon Sect. The vessel made several stops in different cities, similar to Verdant City, to pick up more participants. This process continued for three months until the ship was filled to capacity. With all passengers on board, the treasure ship sped towards the Azure Dragon Sect, covering more than fifty thousand miles a day. However, it still took a month to reach the sect\'s vast territory, spanning over five hundred thousand miles. The journey continued for another fifteen days before they finally arrived at the Azure Dragon Sect.

The ship landed in the outermost area of the sect. near a city called Blue Scales City. This city was one of the main cities within the Azure Dragon Sect. Since the sect covered an enormous area, multiple cities were situated in every corner of the sect.

The Azure Dragon Sect, as the ruler of the entire nation, governed the nation through various cities, including the Azure Dragon City, which was the official capital of government. However, Azure Dragon city was not used to bring talents who wanted to take the test in the sect. Instead, cities such as the Blue Scales City and  Sapphire Fang City were chosen for this purpose.

Once everyone disembarked from the treasure ship, they were led to the Blue Scales City, where the testing would take place within a week. Talents who succeeded in the tests would be sent to the outer sect, while those who failed would return home with their families.

Blue Scales City was bustling with activity, with stores and businesses at every corner and numerous inns available for accommodations. Alongside the regular population, the city was now filled with elders and talented young seeds from various clans, all visiting for the tournament.

The patriarch of the Yan family booked a large room at an inn which was near the outer regions of the city, where the upcoming tests would be conducted. The room had multiple chambers for them to stay in.

Before the patriarch left to register Han Cai for the tests, Han Cai handed him an azure jade with a dragon carving on it. This jade had been given to Han Cai by Lan Xu. He told the patriarch that if he presented the jade to those registering the participants for the test, Han Cai would be registered for the Alchemy Hall\'s testing rather than the general tests. The patriarch nodded and took the jade with him.

When the patriarch returned in the evening, he was very pleased. Upon being asked why he was so happy, he explained that, thanks to the Azure Jade, Han Cai was approved for the special Alchemy Hall test, which was reserved for the most talented seeds in Alchemy. Furthermore, out of the thirty participants in the Alchemy test, five would be directly selected to become members of the Alchemy Hall, bypassing the tedious process of joining the outer sect and then working hard or paying to join any hall.

This news delighted the Yan family elders. They knew that the general tests had fierce competition, with nearly seventy thousand young seeds participating, and only one thousand being selected to join the Azure Dragon Sect. The Alchemy test, on the other hand, had fewer participants and a higher chance of success.

However, they also understood that Alchemy was no easy feat. It was just that they were fortunate to have an Alchemy talent like Han Cai born into their clan. They had never encountered a young Alchemist as skilled as Han Cai, who could create medium-grade pills, which further boosted their confidence in him.

With the test set to take place a week from the day of registration, Han Cai and the Yan family elders waited patiently in their inn. None of them left the inn for a week. 

As the test drew closer, all the elders, including the patriarch and Yan Rui, grew increasingly nervous. The Azure Dragon Sect was their clan\'s dream, and Han Cai was their best hope. If he didn\'t make it, the chances of their family having any members in the sect in the future would be slim, as they knew their Yan Clan wouldn\'t be able to produce any more talented seeds like Han Cai.

The more they thought about it, the more nervous they became. A week passed with Han Cai staying leisurely in the hall, while the elders grew more anxious with each passing day.

Finally, the day of the test arrived. Early in the morning, the patriarch brought Han Cai and the elders to the testing hall, where the Alchemy Test was going to be held. It was a grand hall, specifically designed for the annual Alchemy Test.
