Mo Fei looked at the test paper of the preliminary, slightly frowning.
In this round, they were given a hundred kinds of star herbs. And the students were asked to pick some to refine potions and note their composition and efficacy.
The more potions one made, the higher score. Looking at those herbs, over a dozen of prescriptions flashed in Mo Fei’s heart.
Mo Fei frowned. On thinking of Wu Gouyue’s threatening, he chose six of them to write down.
The whole process was limited to two hours. One could only hear the sound of writing, no other noise at all.
Among those contestants, some were thinking hard, some were writing fast, some were wearing a bitter face, some looked quite confident, some were tweaking their ears and scratching their cheeks, while some looked quite calm…
Seeing Lou Yu was so concentrated, Lou Feng showed a slice of suspicion in his eyes, “Lou Yu, it looks that Mo Fei is doing great. He never stops writing.”
Lou Yu smiled and said faintly, “Maybe, he just filled the paper with some random answers and hopes the teacher could give him a score out of sympathy.”
Lou Feng looked at Lou Yu disapprovingly, “Well, I hold a different opinion. Lou Yu, your wife is capable, I think.”
Lou Yu forced a smile, “Big brother, you really flatter him.”
“Lou Yu, sometimes, I’m really jealous of your good luck.” said Lou Feng while staring at Lou Yu.
Lou Yu curled up his lips, “Yeah, you know, not everyone could have such good luck.”
Lou Feng narrowed his eyes, with dense jealousy flashing in his eyes.
Leaning on his seat, Qian Ye said with disappointment, “I thought I can see them refining potions. It turns out that they only answer papers. So boring! Alas, I feel thirsty.”
Right after he finished his last sentence, those fans around immediately handed over dozens of bottles of beverage to him.
Qian Ye then leisurely picked a bottle of honey tea, and the girl who offered it nearly passed out.
After taking a mouthful, Qian Ye turned to Mo Yi and said, “Childe Flute, would like to have a try of the honey tea? This brand tastes not bad.”
Mo Yi gave him an embarrassing smile, “No, thanks.”
Qian Ye then shrugged his shoulders, “What a shame!”
Zheng Xuan stared at Qian Ye, looking fierce, like he was gonna strangle Qian Ye the next second, while Qian Ye only gave him a friendly smile, like he never put Zheng Xuan’s hostility in his eyes at all.
Two hours later, the preliminary was officially over.
As long as he saw this, Zheng Xuan already couldn’t wait pulling Mo Yi to his side and left.
Watching that, Qian Ye only found it quite funny.
Most contestants that still stayed on the stage all wore a bitter face, apparently they had no confidence of their answers.
Lin Feiyu walked over to Mo Fei and asked, “Mo Fei, how many prescriptions did you write?”
Mo Fei shrugged his shoulders and said flatly, “No too many, only six kinds.”
Lin Feiyu couldn’t believe his ears, eyes wide open, “What? Six?”
Mo Fei nodded, “Yeah, is that too many?”
Lin Feiyu bit his lips. He only wrote three. And he only came up with the last by chance. He thought three were already hard to make.
Nalan Tianwu sneered, “Only six? If one makes random prescriptions, sixty kinds would be an easy thing, let alone six. Mo Fei, don’t expect you’d get a high score since you write so many. You know, non-effective prescriptions wouldn’t get you any score.”
Mo Fei nodded, “Oh, so non-effective prescriptions get no score! Thank you for your tips.”
Nalan Tianwu snorted while looking at Mo Fei.
“Nalan, how many kinds did you make?” asked Meng Feifei asked her out of curiosity.
Nalan Tianwu smiled with confidence, “Five.”
Meng Feifei showed kind of admiration in her eyes, “Wow, impressive. I only thought of three. And for the last one, I nearly cracked my brain and finally came up with it when it was almost time.”
Lin Feiyu glanced at Meng Feifei, thinking: Skyland Department really deserves its reputation. Only a random student could be so outstanding.
After the competition was over, the students all scattered away continuously.
Lou Yu then took Mo Fei and Lin Feiyu onto the star car.
Mo Fei was well-behaved this time and didn’t go to other places, which gave Lou Yu a big relief.
In the grading room of the Imperial College, Wu Gouyu was having a heated fight with a man.
“Wu Gouyue, you can’t be so partial to him! Putting Moonlight herb and Heaven’s Fragrance Flower together would spoil the potion. This prescription doesn’t make sense at all!”
“Doesn’t make sense? Why? You can’t make it, but it doesn’t mean others can’t.”
“Wu Gouyue, Mo Fei just wrote it all casually. But you insist it’s all correct. You are really unreasonable.”
“I’m unreasonable? You are the one being unreasonable. Each of the six prescriptions is workable, but you said four of them don’t make sense and only agree to give scores to two of them. Do you think my student is a pushover?”
“I have tried those four, but I failed to make any potion.”
“If you can’t, it only means you are incapable, but it’s not a problem of my student’s prescription.”
“All right, I am done of this. Let’s call it a stop. How about this? I’ll give four of them scores.”
“No, all six are right, how could you only give four scores?”
“Wu Gouyue, don’t go too far. I’ve already given two useless ones scores. Don’t reach out for a yard after taking an inch…”
“…”
