Chapter 149: The First Test of the Potions Department (One)

Instructor Tian introduced all the tools in the laboratory and their uses one by one.

Zhan Wan Yue looked at them and said with a smile: “Next, follow me.”

Then she took the several people to a huge medicine field and said: “Starting from today, Instructor Tian will divide up a part of the medicine field for the each of you and you’ll need to take care of it regularly every day.”

After a pause, she continued: “Then you will begin to familiarise yourself with all the herbs here in the medicine field. Whenever you’ve mastered the appearances, properties, and effects of all the herbs, whenever you will be able to truly come into contact with the extraction and purification of potions.”

Everyone except Yu Qing Qian was startled when they heard her words. They obviously didn’t expect that the first task test would be like this.

Yin Ming remembered it seriously, but the other five people felt a little uncomfortable. They felt that asking them to do such a thing as soon as they arrived was belittling them too much, but they didn’t raise any objections.

“Do you have any more questions?” Zhan Wan Yue asked with a gentle smile and looked at the several people.

The confident girl raised her hand and asked: “Department Leader, I’d like to ask, in addition to familiarising ourselves with the herbs and managing the medicinal field, do we need to take any potions classes too?”

They wouldn’t let them do this kind of thing the entire time would they.

The medicinal field here was very large, with at least ten thousand types of medicinal herbs. It was impossible for them to familiarise themselves with all the medicinal properties and effects in a short period of time.

“No need, whenever you complete the task, whenever you begin the potions classes.” Zhan Wan Yue said rather patiently.

“What if we finish at a different pace?” The girl couldn’t resist asking again.

In her impression, Yin Ming and the other quiet girl weren’t outstanding. What if they were held back because of them?

After going through the freshmen training experience and the tests of the Potions Department and Plant Inscription Department, Yu Qing Qian’s reputation as a genius had spread, and had even surpassed Huo Li Ruo to become the number one among the freshmen.

She didn’t classify Yu Qing Qian as someone who would drag her back, but regarded her as someone she would surpass.

Zhan Wan Yue could see through her thoughts at a glance, “Whoever completes the mission first, whoever will attend potions classes first. The extracting and purifying of potions depend on talent and comprehension, and it won’t be possible for you all to progress at the same speed in class.”

“Thank you, Department Leader, for clarifying.” The girl seemed to be relieved.

“Does anyone have any more questions?” Zhan Wan Yue glanced at Yu Qing Qian vaguely.

Yu Qing Qian raised her hand and asked with a smile: “Excuse me, Department Leader, how long did it take for the person who was the fastest to familiarise themselves with the medicinal field?”

“It took three months.” Zhan Wan Yue added: “It was a Senior Brother from two sessions ago.”

“Then how long did it take for the slowest?” The other boy asked curiously.

Zhan Wan Yue replied: “The slowest took more than a year.

“Don’t think that it’s easy to familiarise yourself with the properties and functions of the herbs in the medicinal field. After you’ve familiarised yourself with it, we’ll assess you. Those who can’t answer the questions still needs to continue, and only those who can answer the questions will be considered to have passed the test.

Zhan Wan Yue’s expression was calm, still wearing a smile that was like a warm spring breeze, but she judged the performance of the several people inwardly.

“Yes, Department Leader.”

“Alright, you may do as you wish until the first task is completed. You can now choose to familiarise yourself with the medicinal field or you can choose to attend lectures in other departments.” Zhan Wan Yue gave a few more instructions, then left.

Yin Ming approached Yu Qing Qian and asked: “Qing Qian, are you going to familiarise yourself with the medicine field now?”

“Mm, the earlier I become familiar with it, the earlier I can start the potions classes.” Yu Qing Qian nodded.

Yin Ming scratched his head and nodded: “I think so too.”

So the two of them walked directly into the medicine field and began to study the herbs inside.
