Most of the alchemists in the Nine Kingdoms are managed by the Thirty-Two Halls. In the Zhenbei Hall alone, there are nearly 10,000 alchemists on the books.
Of course, not all of the nearly 10,000 alchemists gathered in the Zhenbei Hall. The Zhenbei Hall was such a big place that it could not accommodate nearly 10,000 people.
Among the nearly 10,000 alchemists, there are not many who have reached the realm of alchemy masters of the Three Cauldrons, and there are even fewer who have reached the level of the Four Cauldrons.
As for the alchemy master, unless he is serving in the Zhenbei Palace, as an alchemy master, he is not under the jurisdiction of the palace master.
On this roster, there are only the names of those alchemists who stay in the Zhenbei Hall all year round. The other alchemists who are not in the Zhenbei Hall are just a number and do not have specific names.
Because Ye Mengxian had to take Su Xiaotong and Dugu Nian to the Danji Pagoda, he could not stay in Zhenbei Hall for a long time. However, in order to let Fang Lin become familiar with all the matters in Zhenbei Hall, he had to stay in Zhenbei Hall for a day.
In one day, Ye Mengxian clearly told Fang Lin the responsibilities of the palace master and what he had to do, and took Fang Lin to familiarize himself with all the affairs of the Zhenbei Palace.
As the master of the palace, on the surface he has great glory, just like a feudal official, but in fact he is under a lot of pressure.
After all, you have to manage so many alchemists, and many things need to be done by yourself. Just sitting in the position of the master of the palace does not mean you can be superior.
Moreover, there will be competition among the thirty-two palaces. Which palace has more alchemists, which palace has higher alchemists, and which palace has refined high-quality and good elixirs. These are all constantly changing. for comparison.
Among the thirty-two halls, the Zhenbei Palace has always been at the middle level. It is not outstanding, but it is not too bad either.
There are at least nearly 10,000 alchemists belonging to Zhenbei Palace. Even if most of these nearly 10,000 alchemists are mediocre, they will not be far behind.
In addition to the alchemists under their command, the masters of the Thirty-two Halls will also compete from time to time to determine who is superior.
Of course, the contest between the palace masters will naturally be based on alchemy. After all, everyone is an alchemist. It is not good to fight and kill. It is more meaningful to compete in alchemy.
During the time when Ye Mengxian served as the palace master, he was considered to be a relatively outstanding one among the palace masters of the Thirty-Two Palaces. His martial arts strength could be ranked among the top ten, and his alchemy strength could even be among the top five.
After all, Ye Mengxian is the granddaughter of Tian Kuisu. With Tian Kuisu's guidance, Ye Mengxian is very qualified and naturally has outstanding strength.
When Fang Lin comes here, he will naturally need to compete with the other hall masters of the thirty-two halls. If Fang Lin's performance is not as good as the previous hall masters, then it will be difficult for Fang Lin to secure his position as the hall master.
Not only will the senior officials of the Alchemy Alliance evaluate whether Fang Lin is qualified to continue to serve as the master of the Zhenbei Palace, but even the alchemists in the Zhenbei Palace will be disappointed with Fang Lin and no longer recognize him as the master of the palace.
Once this happens, Fang Lin can basically step down from the position of the master of the palace. This is the master of a palace, not an insignificant position, and naturally it must be filled by capable people.
Even if you, Fang Lin, are disciples of Mr. Tiankui Su, if you do not have the ability to show the strength that a master of a palace should have, then the senior officials of the Dan Alliance will deprive you of the position of master of the palace.
At this time, even Tiankui Su Lao will not say anything for Fang Lin. I have already given you a push and sent you to the position of the palace master. Unfortunately, you are not living up to your expectations and cannot sit firmly. There is no reason to complain. Anyone anymore.
Ye Mengxian told Fang Lin that although he was now the master of the palace, many alchemy families were currently eyeing Fang Lin, and he didn't know what methods he would come up with to trip him up and make Fang Lin be more careful.
Moreover, there will be many unpredictable things in Zhenbei Hall. Ye Mengxian vaguely reminded Fang Lin that if he wanted to completely control Zhenbei Hall, he needed to hold all the elders of Zhenbei Hall in his hands.
Fang Lin naturally knew this very well. Even if Ye Mengxian didn't remind him, Fang Lin would do it.
After all, his foundation is not stable. Even if there is Elder Miao on his side, it is not enough for him to fully control Zhenbei Palace.
Only by mastering all the elders can we better master Zhenbei Palace.
Among all the elders, the senior one is naturally Elder Wang, who is still in seclusion. However, in addition to Elder Wang, there are a group of elders who also have considerable power in their hands and are the top leaders of Zhenbei Hall.
The first thing Fang Lin had to do was to hold these elders and make them obey his orders. It would be too bad if they violated the rules, or if these elders ignored him as the master of the palace.
Compared with the previous puppet hall master, Fang Lin is undoubtedly much better now. At least Fang Lin is not a completely ignored puppet. There is no alchemy family behind him to control him. At least he still has Elder Miao and Mo Yun. After waiting for the support of a group of alchemists, I feel somewhat confident.
One day later, Ye Mengxian left the Zhenbei Hall in a flying boat to send Su Xiaotong and Dugu Nian into the Danji Tower.
At the same time, many alchemy families learned that Fang Lin had become the master of Zhenbei Palace, and they all made different voices.
Among them, the Ling family was the first to express dissatisfaction and doubts, believing that Fang Lin was not qualified to hold such an important position as the Lord of the First Palace.
Many alchemy families have echoed the words and stood firmly with the Ling family, hoping that the senior officials of the alchemy alliance can consider it carefully.
There are also some voices of opposition among the senior officials of the Alchemy League. These senior officials are also from Alchemy families. Naturally, they wear the same pants as those aristocratic families and say the same thing.
At first, it was only people from the Alchemy Family who objected, but as some people secretly spread rumors, they said that Fang Lin was not qualified to be the master of the palace and that he relied entirely on Tian Kuisu to get to the position.
The spread spread more and more, and over time, more alchemists began to question Fang Lin, and the trend became more and more serious.
It's no wonder, after all, Fang Lin's qualifications are there, he is too young, and he has not been rising in the Dan League for a long time. Although he is extremely dazzling, it is really unconvincing that he has become the master of a palace so quickly.
The position of the Lord of the First Hall is really too important. Except for Fang Lin, the current Lords of the Thirty-two Halls all have excellent strength and have far higher qualifications than Fang Lin. No matter how you look at it, , Fang Lin, the palace master, is somewhat unworthy of his name.
Nothing happened in the Zhenbei Hall yet, but the sounds from the outside were already a little more noisy.
Just when Fang Lin was about to face huge pressure from the outside world, the Dan Daolong family, which had always maintained a low profile, once again stood by Fang Lin.
The Long family expressed its support for Fang Lin to be the master of the Zhenbei Palace and were very optimistic about Fang Lin. They would send someone with generous gifts to congratulate Fang Lin in the near future.
