One of the elders of the Alchemy Hall spoke, "From now on, you five are members of the Alchemy Hall of the Azure Dragon Sect. You are talented, but that does not mean our sect lacks talents. You need to be diligent and continue working hard."
Then the elder looked at the elders of the participants and said, "The general testing will be continuing for a month, so you will have to stay in the city for a month. In the meantime, I suggest registering your clans in the city center as members of the Azure Dragon Sect. Since you are members of the Alchemy Hall, your clans will get more freedom related to trading Alchemy materials."
All the present elders nodded, just like children when they were spoken to. The elder of the Alchemy Hall moved his hand, and five light green jade medallions appeared around him. He moved his hand again, and the five medallions flew towards the participants.
Each participant, including Han Cai, caught a medallion. The elder said, "This is the clan medallion, proof that your clan is part of the Azure Dragon Sect. One outer sect disciple and one elder from the family who will be staying in the clan will have to imprint it. This medallion is proof that you are a member of the Azure Dragon Sect. Every major array in every major city recognizes this medallion. It has many other functions, but for now, imprint it, and you can explore the remaining benefits later."
Han Cai nodded and imprinted the medallion. The Yan family elders felt a wave of relief and pride wash over them as they witnessed this pivotal moment. They had finally accomplished their long-held dream of having a member join the Azure Dragon Sect.
Yan Rui was in a dilemma because behind Han Cai stood the patriarch, and behind the patriarch stood Yan Rui himself. The Alchemy Hall elder had mentioned that any elder could imprint the medallion, so even the patriarch could do it.
Yan Rui would have to move forward, pushing the patriarch to the side if he wanted to get the medallion from Han Cai. Now, he was worried that the patriarch might imprint the medallion with his great-grandchild. If Patriarch imprinted the medallion the whole Yan Family would benefit, but his Rui household's advantage would be gone.
While Yan Rui was lost in thought, Han Cai turned around and spoke to him, "Grandpa, I have imprinted it."
Seeing Han Cai speak to Yan Rui, the patriarch, who was standing behind Han Cai, moved to the side, letting Yan Rui imprint the medallion. In reality, the patriarch did want to imprint the medallion, but since Han Cai had called for his great-grandpa he had to move to side, it made sense since Han Cai was closest to his great-grandfather and would look for him.
The patriarch could only sigh that his household had no talent like Han Cai, but he was not disappointed. Even if the Rui household profited the most, Han Cai was their seed anyway, and at the end of the day, the Rui household was part of the Yan Clan.
They were brothers, so even if the Rui household profited, the whole clan would be profiting massively too. Now it was just a matter of time before they became equal to the Qi, Hu, and Pei families. Just like the Xu family, they would be buying businesses in Verdant City and becoming overlords of the area.
Seeing the patriarch give way, Yan Rui moved forward, came beside Han Cai, and imprinted the medallion. After imprinting it, he carefully kept it in his storage ring. This little piece of jade was the future of their clan and his household. After the process was completed, the elder spoke, "After a month, there will be another treasure ship arriving. Take the seeds to the treasure ship; the ship bring them to the sect."
The elder moved his hand again, and five storage bags appeared in front of him. The storage bags automatically flew to all five new outer sect disciples of the Alchemy Hall of the Azure Dragon Sect. He said, "These are your storage bags. The Alchemy Hall gives them as gifts to new disciples. Inside, you will find your outer sect medallions, robes, and other items. The medallion is proof that you are now an outer sect disciple of the sect. Imprint it and keep it safe until you arrive at the sect. Wear the robes so people will know you are disciples of the Alchemy Hall, and no one will trouble you."
Han Cai imprinted the storage bag and took the medallion. It was a green-colored jade medallion. He imprinted it, as did the other children. After everything was done, Han Cai returned to the inn with the patriarch, Great-grandpa Yan Rui, and the other two elders.
On the return journey, all of the elders were smiling happily. They were beyond pleased. In just one day, the future of their clan had changed. When they arrived at the inn, the patriarch took out special spirit wine that was more than eight hundred years old. He served the wine to all the elders. Han Cai was interested in the wine too, but since he was too young, he was not given any. Instead, he enjoyed the food that the patriarch had ordered specially for the event. That night, the Immortals of the Yan Clan drank until morning, celebrating their newfound fortune and the bright future that lay ahead for them.
As the sun rose, the elders were still in high spirits, discussing their plans for the future and how they would support Han Cai and the clan's growth. They knew that with Han Cai's talent and the backing of the Azure Dragon Sect, they would be able to expand their influence and secure a better life for the entire Yan Clan.
After celebration was over the patriarch moved the Yan Clan members to one of the most luxurious inns in the city. This was the inn where the Hu, Qi, Pei, and Xu families were staying. These inns allowed you to stay only if you had family members in the Azure Dragon Sect.
