Chapter 125 - Mass Brawl (3)
“In a while, we will act according to Xiao Jue’s plan. After we enter the Obscure Forest, all of us shall find somewhere to hide first. Then, we will play it by ear.” Qi Xia’s usual handsome appearance then looked haggard. The effect of the potion was too potent on him. Ten minutes had yet to pass and it had already exhausted his magic. The most that he could do then was to cast a fireball.
“Xiao Jue, do you have a general idea about the antidote now that you have seen the formula?” As a priest, Yan Yu had the same character traits as the herbalist, and they belonged to a profession with weaker firepower. However, they still had a few attack skills, and so, he was in the same boat as Qi Xia. His already pale complexion looked as if it was devoid of any color.
Shen Yanxiao looked at the formula in her hands, and her expression was not so optimistic.
“Not for now. I have only seen these medicinal ingredients in books. Since we are to produce the potion in Obscure Forest, we can definitely find the ingredients here.” Due to Tang Nazhi’s influence, the other members had also regarded her as an up-and-coming star in the Herbalist Division.
How would she have the cheek to tell them that she had only learned herbalism for a month?
“There is no rush. The duration of the test is for seven days, so we still have ample of time. As long as we can find a safe location, I believe you can produce the antidote with your ability.” Tang Nazhi seemed to have completely forgotten the fact that he was also an herbalist as he looked at Shen Yanxiao with confidence.
Shen Yanxiao could only smile helplessly, but no one knew just how much she had cursed in her mind.
As the test started, thousands of students of the Saint Laurent Academy rushed into the forest in groups of five.
Shen Yanxiao had already planned to swiftly hide within the dense forest so that they would have ample time to come up with a plan. However, the moment she turned her back, her lips twitched.
Qi Xia, Yan Yu, and Yang Xi were like grandfathers who were there to sightsee as they slowly walked into the Obscure Forest without any sense of urgency.
Dozens of Saint Laurent Academy students followed closely behind them.
Those students’ intentions were clear. They wanted to take actions against Shen Yanxiao’s group as soon as the one hour protection period had passed.
Shen Yanxiao had guessed correctly. It seemed that those students had acquaintances in the other teams too, and they had made their plans as soon as Ouyang Huanyu had announced the rules. They knew that there were two teams that they had to eliminate as quickly as they could. The first team was the one that they had followed then, and the other was Cao Xu’s team.
Even though the teams were rivals in that test, everyone knew the collective strength of those two teams. They were Saint Laurent Academy’s six most powerful student from the six divisions, and all six of them were split into two groups. If they had the chance to regain their strengths, then the rest of them should just pack up their bags and head on home.
Therefore, they had agreed that it was the best time to attack those two teams. Since they were less powerful, the effectiveness of the potion that they had consumed was also weaker, and vice versa.
Some of the students had only recently reached the sixth rank in magic and battle aura. The effect of the potion on them was negligible as they could still use about eighty percent of their strength.
