A few days later, the Academy’s rewards for the top five groups of the freshmen’s last training experience were distributed.
Each person was rewarded with a piece of Nourishing Soil the size of a palm, making other students who weren’t rewarded envious.
Nourishing Soil was of no use to the Spiritual Plant Masters themselves, but after it was absorbed, it could be transferred into the spiritual plant space to nourish the contracted spiritual plants and help them thrive.
Spiritual plants also needed to grow and advance. Their Owner’s advancing would be of great help to the growth of spiritual plants, but advancements required a lot of Nourishing Soil.
As soon as Yu Qing Qian obtained the Nourishing Soil, the Demon Emperor Herb and the Nine-Coloured Magic Lotus in the spiritual plant space already couldn’t wait to send out signals of desire.
She quickly refined the Nourishing Soil and a trace of dark green force flowed into her body from the palm of her hand, quickly absorbed into the spiritual plant space.
After she finished absorbing the Nourishing Soil, the two spiritual plants gradually fell silent and dormant.
“Truly a good thing. I’ll need to get more of it in the future.” Yu Qing Qian muttered to herself, then went to the Potions Department.
The others in the Potions Department had yet to complete the first assessment. Yin Ming worked very hard and had already identified one-third of the herbs in the medicinal field, while the others were much more inferior.
Yu Qing Qian first went to take care of the medicinal field assigned to her, watering and weeding it in a familiarised manner.
Her special wood-class variant ability could communicate with plants to begin with, so she loved every plant in the medicinal field from the bottom of her heart.
Zhan Wan Tong stood by the window of a building with her arms folded, looking down at the busy figures in the medicinal field, her eyes filled with satisfaction.
“After more than half a month of contact, what do you think of Yu Qing Qian?” She asked calmly without looking back.
Behind Zhan Wan Tong stood a young man with a handsome appearance and a gentle, scholarly temperament.
His gaze fell on Yu Qing Qian in the medicinal field with a smile on his lips, “She’s monstrously talented. After joining the elite team, she’s also very diligent. Now she’s been able to prepare many grade-1 potions, and in terms of fusion and purification, I rarely see her fail.”
The extraction and purification of potions were divided into ten classes, and the potions themselves were also divided into ten grades. Grade-1 potions were the worst, and grade-10 potions were the best.
“Mm, even you’re full of praise, then I’m relieved.” Zhan Wan Tong nodded with a smile.
Yu Qing Qian was the most talented student with the best temperament she and Zhan Wan Yue have seen over the years. Such a good seedling must be guided well and couldn’t be given up halfway.
“Class is about to start, you should return.”
The scholarly man smiled and said: “Yes!” Then left the room.
Yu Qing Qian finished sorting out the medicinal field, then went to the elite team’s potion room.
“Qing Qian, have you finished handling the medicinal field?” The person Yu Qing Qian met was precisely the scholarly-looking man who came out of the main room with Department Leader Zhan Wan Tong.
“Mm, I just finished.” Yu Qing Qian smiled.
This man was named Huo Ye Feng, and he was the leader of the elite team. He was gentle and humble, and he also took good care of her.
Huo Ye Feng handed a yellowed book to Yu Qing Qian and said: “This is an ancient potions book. It contains many niche potions, you can study it a bit.”
Yu Qing Qian took the book, flipped through a few pages, and her eyes lit up. She raised her head and said with a smile: “Thank you, Senior Brother!”
The outside of the book was yellowed, but the potion formulas inside were well preserved. There were grade 1, 2, and 3 niche potions inside. Yu Qing Qian knew that this book was very rare and precious.
Potion formulas and plant inscription diagrams were both very precious. In the Academy, one could learn grade 1 and 2 potions and plant inscriptions, but for grade 3 and above, students needed to search for them or complete missions to obtain them.
The book given by Huo Ye Feng was considered a big favour no matter how one looked at it. Yu Qing Qian didn’t refuse it because she truly needed it and accepted the other party’s good will.
