Chapter 272: Wrong Sequence (1)

The crowd thought that Shen Yanxiao was a joke, and they looked at her with ridicule and contempt.

 All of them wanted to see just how ‘skilled’ that first-year kid would turn out to be.

 Shen Yanxiao recalled the whole process of Luo De’s demonstration in her mind, and then she began to process dozens of medicinal ingredients after that.

 She managed to complete every single process speedily, and one could not say that she was inferior to Luo De. Her fast movements also shocked the crowd.

 Shen Yanxiao’s rapid movements also startled Luo De. The timing to prepare the medicinal ingredients was crucial to the process, and even a slight inattentiveness would lead to mistakes. However, since Shen Yanxiao had moved very fast, it was quite hard to guarantee that the ingredients were processed to perfection.

 Luo De wondered if there was something wrong with the kid. He could produce perfect potions, so why was it so shocking that the kid could do the same? Were his expectations too high? It was probably that since it was tough for a first-year student to be able to produce an intermediate potion.

Luo De felt anxious for Shen Yanxiao while the other students laughed at Shen Yanxiao’s swift actions.

 However, they would not be able to laugh for long.

 Soon enough, they would not even be able to smile.

 Even though Shen Yanxiao was fast, the way she processed the ingredients was flawless. The powder was fine and smooth, and the liquid was clear and transparent. The rest of the students might not have been able to the perfect Aura Concealment Potion, but they had a profound understanding of the fundamentals of medicinal ingredients. Shen Yanxiao had processed all thirteen ingredients, and she even managed to do that in only one-third of the Luo De’s time. Even so, the processed medicinal ingredients were comparable to Luo De’s.

 Luo De was shocked at Shen Yanxiao’s success. He could not even find a single flaw in any of the thirteen ingredients that she had processed.

 It looked as if that was not the first time that Shen Yanxiao had processed those ingredients. Her skills made it look as if she had done the same processes for more than a hundred times.

 However, Shen Yanxiao was still only a first-year student, and therefore it would have been impossible for her to have learned the Aura Concealment formula before that.

 Luo De might have been shocked, but he was also pleasantly surprised as he stared at Shen Yanxiao’s preparation for her next steps.

 Shen Yanxiao did not slow down as she continued the steps to produce the potion. She poured the liquid into the bottle swiftly, but she did not continue with another set of liquid. Instead, she added a powdery ingredient that was supposed to be added at a much later step.

Luo De’s heart dropped. It seemed like the one demonstration that he did for Shen Yanxiao was not enough as Shen Yanxiao had mixed up the sequences in the process.

However, Shen Yanxiao did not think that there was anything wrong with what she did. After she added another liquid, she heated the bottle on the fire.

 Luo De could not bear to continue watching her. Shen Yanxiao had followed the wrong sequences, and even if she were to add the other medicinal ingredients into the bottle, it would prove hard for her to complete the Aura Concealment Potion.

 The other students remembered the sequences in the process as well. When they saw Shen Yanxiao’s apparent mistake and Luo De’s increasingly sour expression, they smiled maliciously.

 “I knew it. This kid is not skilled at all. He had messed up the sequences of several medicinal ingredients.”

 “I would like to see if he’d cause an explosion.”

 Everyone knew that Shen Yanxiao’s attempt had failed, and they only had to wait for the final result. They looked forward to Luo De’s reprimand for that first-year student.
