Life After Prison

Chapter 2122
The onlooking disciples could only smile wryly, wishing that they were in Severin’s shoes. It was the peak masters’ offers that
startled them the most. While the disciples were still grappling with the shock of finding out what happened, the nine peak
masters wrestled for Severin’s coveted favor. After all, his rise to seventh-grade alchemist had sent shockwaves throughout the
sect.
Daniella, the Sixth Mountain’s peak master and a renowned alchemist, had spent decades trying to go from sixth-grade high-
rank to seventh-grade. Severin, however, achieved it in just over half a year!
His prodigious talent more than deserved the attention of all the peak masters, and his youth was hinted at the potential for him
to reach even greater heights, perhaps even becoming an eighth-grade alchemist in the future. Such an person would command
the respect of even royal paragons, for the benefits to be gained from an eight- grade alchemist was simply too great. Thus,
everyone valued the achievements he made in addition to the prospects of his future promise.
By contrast, his rise to level nine supreme saint-while impressive in and of itself-did not spark the same excitement. Three of the
five core disciples had already attained paragonhood, so Severin’s achievement was less shocking I that sense.
Severin felt bewildered as he faced the bickering peak masters, as he never imagined his advancement would trigger such a
frenzy. As he was pondering over how best to respond to them, a thick fog of
purple energy swirled in the sky and carried with it the power of heaven and earth. From its depths emerged a figure surrounded
in the same purple fog.
It was none other than Oskar, the Grandiuno Sect’s leader. His arrival anchoce greeted him.
“Greetings, Sect Leader!”
Oskar glared at them with a gravely disappointed expression. “Must such esteemed paragons like yourselves squabble over a
seventh- grade alchemist?”
His expression softened somewhat as he turned to Severin. “Not bad. You’ve successfully become a seventh-grade alchemist, it
seems.”
Severin chuckled. “I was just lucky.”

Oskar reached into his robes and retrieved a green token. He tossed it to Severin and said, “Since you’ve now reached seventh-
grade, I shall appoint you an elder of the Alchemy Chamber. I trust that is acceptable for you.”
The peak masters gasped in surprise.
“What?!”
They had all offered positions as prestigious as that of elder and deputy peak master to Severin, only for Oskar to one-up them
by granting Severin the esteemed role of Alchemy Chamber elder! The position held immense power, as he was to oversee the
entire sect’s pill allocations and resources. That would bestow a status on par with that of sect elders.
Moreover, the Alchemy Chamber’s elder was traditionally never selected from a disciple like Severin. Such a position was
reserved for the most skilled alchemist within the sect elders, and even then, it was only bestowed after the sect tournament to
whichever elder who had the best talent in alchemy.
Oskar looked at the astonished people and asked, “Do any of you object?”
Daniella and the others hurriedly shook their heads. “No! No objections!”
