Female Novel
Chapter 2578
Chapter 2578 The white-haired man’s words reflected how inquisitive and solemn he was. He truly wondered whyJackie would choose to be an alchemist if he was talented enough to break through to the springsolidifying realm at his age. After all, the white-haired man felt like it was not an easy path to take.
Alchemists were no doubt respected, but the path was fraught with various difficulties. It was much moredifficult to tread than the path of martial arts.
Some alchemists were never able to even become seventh-grade alchemists for their entire lives, thuspracticing martial arts were worth it all as compared to alchemy. That was one of the reasons why high-level alchemists were so rare.
Jackie stared at the white-haired man. There had been some things he had not been planning to say, butthe white-haired man did not seem willing to relent at all, so he felt like he had to explain.
“I never gave up on either side. Otherwise, I would never have come to Soul Grotto.”
The white-haired man’s lips froze before he asked again, “I still don’t understand. The path of being analchemist seems really hard to me.

“If you want to become a high-level alchemist, expect to be spending loads of time and resources. Youwon’t just need to be incredibly familiar with knowledge of the various materials; you’ll also need toconstantly refine pills.”
The white-haired man knew quite a few alchemists, which was why he knew how much effort andresources were needed to become a successful alchemist. After all, refining a pill was not somethingeasy.
One needed to go through hundreds of failures before being able to succeed, and increasing one’sproficiency as an alchemist was even harder. He had many friends that were stuck at the sixth-gradelevel, even after over ten years of practice. Becoming a seventh-grade alchemist seemed like animpossible goal to them.
Even in Phoenix Valley, seventh-grade alchemists were incredibly well-respected. After all, seventh-grade alchemists were not easy to find.

Jackie’s lips twitched in exasperation. Thinking deeper into this, he knew why the white-haired man wasso shocked.
After all, the fact that he had arrived at this stage was not because of any amazing talents; it wasbecause he had fused with memories from past warriors. Things that many people needed tremendousamounts of time to understand came easy to Jackie.
He never needed to spend hours working on this.
Jackie turned toward the white-haired man and, with formalcy, replied, “With enough talent, you’ll neverneed to give up one for the sake of the other.”
Even though there was a hint of self-praise there, it was the only way to explain what Jackie was goingthrough. When the whitehaired man heard this, however, his face soured.
The white-haired man felt like he was trash compared to Jackie. Not only was Jackie alreadyaccomplished as an alchemist, but he was no worse as a warrior as well. Compared to that, he was noteven that spectacular when it came to being a warrior.
It was incredibly infuriating comparing himself to others.
Francis looked at Jackie in envy. “Geniuses exist just to infuriate us commoners. I have nothing to sayabout the fact that you can be both altogether.”
Everyone nodded at Francis’ words. They had never heard of someone who could get everything likeJackie.

“Who are you?! Answer my question!” Alex’s shout was heard once again.
Jackie furrowed his eyebrows as he looked at Alex unpleasantly. He had not wanted to get into a conflictwith that guy. True, they had an argument, but it was nothing major.
As long as Alex could shut his mouth, he could not be bothered about the guy. It was just his luck thatAlex would hound after him in such a bitter manner.
