The Blood Banquet Potion had an extremely complex preparation process, and the three medicinal ingredients that Shen Yanxiao had processed the day before were the most basic ones. The real difficulty was in the process that Ye Qing was trying to complete.

Ye Qing was not impatient about the process, even after repeated failures. Instead, he was more careful as he continued.

Thus, the process was repeated over and over again.

Shen Yanxiao began to think when she saw Ye Qing’s focused expression.

Those who could reach the same level as Ye Qing were the ones who would fully devote themselves to the profession. They would also possess the level of concentration that surpassed the average people.

Based on the half-completed potions that she could see, Shen Yanxiao deduced that there were about a dozen bottles there. Ye Qing started his process from scratch for each of his attempts.

Shen Yanxiao stayed by Ye Qing’s side the entire morning. When noon came, a teacher then came up with the elevator to deliver Ye Qing’s lunch.

However, there was only one portion, and it was clear that the teacher did not prepare Shen Yanxiao’s share.

“You don’t have to be here in the afternoon. Come back again tomorrow morning.” Ye Qing finally put down the potion in his hands to stretch his aching bones.

Shen Yanxiao bid farewell to Ye Qing and left the Herbalist Division’s library.

It was a good thing that she was not needed there in the afternoon as she had allocated her time for lessons at the Archer Division.

Her schedule continued for the next several days, and Shen Yanxiao had to travel back and forth between three places. She would head to the Herbalist Division’s library in the morning, then the Archer Division in the afternoon, and then she would go to the Warlock Division at night. She could only return to the dormitory for a quick rest when it was dawn.

Fortunately, Shen Yanxiao made sure to take care of her health after the little incident when she had collapsed. She would prepare one or two nutritional tonics at the Herbalist Division’s library to replenish her mental health so that the previous episode would not happen again.

Even so, she had slimmed down quite a bit.

Tang Nazhi’s heart ached when he saw that Shan Yanxiao’s face had become thinner.

Does the little girl not care about herself? She was as busy as a bee all day long, and she had lost a lot of weight.

Shen Yanxiao already looked weak when he first met her, and she got as thin as a stick since then.

Tang Nazhi could no longer stand by and not do anything about it. When Shen Yanxiao completed her archery lessons in the afternoon, he dragged her back to the dormitory and then tucked her in her bed.

1“What are you doing?” Shen Yanxiao looked at Tang Nazhi speechlessly. She could not understand his action.

What was wrong with the guy? Tang Nazhi had squatted at the entrance to the Archer Division while he waited for her. When her lesson had ended, he duped her into following him back to their dormitory. Even then, she could not understand his intentions.

“What am I doing? If you weren’t a girl, I would’ve hit you a long time ago!” Tang Nazhi looked at Shen Yanxiao angrily.

“Look at how skinny you are right now! I can even lift you with one hand. If this continues, you won’t be able to last for long, even with those supplements!”

Shen Yanxiao felt complicated about his actions. Even though Tang Nazhi spoke to her in a forceful tone, she could still sense the concern in his tone.

Shen Yanxiao had wanted to counter his points, but she thought better of it.

In both of her lives, she could count the number of people who cared for her on one hand, and so she cherished his concern for her.

Tang Nazhi finally snorted with satisfaction when Shen Yanxiao decided to stay obediently on the bed. Then he took a huge pile of items from his cabinet.

He proceeded to place all sorts of delicacies and tonics on Shen Yanxiao’s bed.
