"Master, is everything okay?" Alex asked after seeing Ma Rong not speak for a while as she stared at the pill in her hand.
"Yeah, yeah. Everything is fine," She said, but her eyes painted a different picture. She kept staring at the pill in her hand and said nothing else.
"31%, that's good right?" Alex asked.
"Yes, it's very good," Ma Rong said. "You don't need any more learning at all after this. You just need to keep practicing making the different pills, and you will get a lot better soon."
Alex nodded, but he didn't believe her. There were many different ways to improve even right now. He could learn how to improve the recipes to make a higher harmony pill. He could learn what the mysterious Structure and Compositions truly were. He could learn, even before trying, what ingredients could mix up to be used in any pill.
He knew he needed a lot more training, perhaps from someone, perhaps just himself, but he knew he needed them.
