Chapter 117: Potions Genius (Three)
The Department Leader and Vice-Department Leader were satisfied with the results of this assessment.
At the very least, everyone who participated in the tests of the last two sessions were completely wiped out, and no one was able to successfully refine the entry-level potion within ten times.
This time, not only did three freshmen succeed, but one also greatly exceeded their expectations and was even a pleasant surprise.
“Department Leader, we have failed to extract and purify it within ten times, does that mean we’re not qualified to become Apothecaries?” A girl who was originally filled with confidence in herself looked at Zhan Wan Yue, slightly defeated, and asked carefully.
Zhan Wan Yue smiled softly and said: “No, it’s not unusual for freshmen who are exposed to potions for the first time to fail to extract and purify them within ten times. There are still two of you who can remain.”
It was difficult to get started as an Apothecary, and it was even more difficult to grow, so they didn’t require that everyone had the potential to become an advanced Apothecary.
It was considered good to be able to train a few entry-level Apothecaries already.
“You and Zhang Xu also passed the test.” She pointed at another calm boy and said.
The girl who was originally defeated immediately raised her head, her eyes filled with excitement. She thought she’d never have a chance to become an Apothecary, who knew that she’d be able to do it.
But when her eyes fell on Yu Qing Qian, the excitement immediately dissipated.
Compared to Yu Qing Qian three, she and Zhang Xu were only barely qualified, so she had to work hard after entering the Potions Department and try her best to catch up with the others.
The boy didn’t expect that he would be selected, and he couldn’t resist showing pleasant surprise.
Others were allowed to watch the test of the three departments, so in addition to the freshmen, many old students from the Potions Department came to watch this time too.
When they saw Yu Qing Qian successfully refining the entry-level potion in one go, everyone’s expressions looked as if they had seen a ghost.
The middle-aged man was also very satisfied and looking forward to the assessment this time. He said with a smile: “The five people who passed the test will stay, others can leave or wait outside.”
Others who took the assessment could only leave disappointed.
Zhan Wan Yue looked at the five left behind and said: “Welcome in joining the Potions Department. This is a career with a very bright future, you’re all honoured.
“The five of you will report your other classes to Instructor Tian. He will arrange your courses in the Potions Department to ensure that they don’t conflict with other courses.
“Instructor Tian will also be the potions instructor for the five of you. The other instructor and I will also give classes to you at different times.”
Then she gave a general introduction to the Potions Department, and finally said with a smile: “Alright, Yu Qing Qian will remain for now, and the others can leave. You will start reporting on time for classes in the Potions Department on the day after tomorrow.”
“Yes, Department Leader.”
Others didn’t feel any great jealousy with Yu Qing Qian being left behind.
After they extracted the entry-level potion themselves, they realised just how difficult it was to succeed in the first attempt. In their eyes, Yu Qing Qian was a classic outlier.
After the four left, Zhan Wan Tong walked up to Yu Qing Qian, scrutinised her, then said with a half-smile: “I’ve seen the follow-up of the Healing Department after the freshmen training experience. You’re the most prominent, and the most hidden.”
Yu Qing Qian’s performance during the freshmen training could be said to be an absolute blockbuster, catching everyone by surprise.
This meant that this person hid her true strength during tests or during normal classes.
