Life After Prison by Silencieux novel Chapter 1915

Severin then continued to scan the rankings on the stone monument. Thousands had left their marks on the Alchemy Tower ever since it was first constructed. It had been organized into nine floors, each assessing one's knowledge in botany, ingredient identification, spirit beasts, alchemy skills, and more. Advancement to the next level was contingent upon passing each assessment, so those who were listed on the monument undoubtedly had notable talent in alchemy.

All of a sudden, a commotion erupted behind Severin.

"Look! It's our senior, Emery! She's the second-most talented person in the history of the Sixth Mountain!"

"Is she attempting to take another challenge to advance further?"

Severin turned around and saw a rainbow-colored streak descending from a distance. As it neared, a gracefully-dressed woman finally emerged. She was delicate, elegant, and possessed a striking beauty. At 20 years of age, her facial features were exquisitely beautiful, with eyebrows resembling the crescent moon, a slender nose, an angelic face, and lips as pink as a carnation. Her entire being radiated an ethereal quality that was further enhanced by her subtle floral fragrance.

Severin soon recognized the woman as Emery, another prodigy of the Sixth Mountain. She was rumored to be second only to Celeste. The two of them were considered the most beautiful women in the sect, so it was natural for them to attract attention wherever they went. Celeste was the most beautiful and had amazing talent to boot as a sixth-grade alchemist. Meanwhile, Emery was the second, for she was just as beautiful and her technique was rumored to be not much inferior to Celeste's. Many male disciples had a crush on them.

When Emery landed, she headed straight to the tower without even looking at the people around her.

The onlookers cheered.

"I didn't think I would get the chance to see her attempt at advancing through the tower."

"I wonder if she'll reach the sixth floor successfully this time around?"
