Chapter 317: Pseudo-death Potion (1)

One of the teachers frowned as he looked at Shen Yanxiao and asked, “Is this a failed concoction?”
Shen Yanxiao smiled and shook her head. “It is a complete potion.”
The teachers were still doubtful when they heard her reply, so they continued to examine the potion. However, they did not manage to make any new discoveries about it.
“What potion is it?” The teachers could only ask Shen Yanxiao as they could not identify it.
She quirked her eyebrows as she smiled and replied, “Why? Could none of the teachers identify the potion?” Shen Yanxiao also did not know the name of the potion!
Shen Yanxiao’s inappropriate answer caused those proud teachers to turn red from embarrassment.
It was true that they could not identify the potion, and that was already a big blow to their self-esteem. A first-year student had made a potion, and yet, none of them could identify it. It was such an embarrassment!
The atmosphere in the arena tensed. Shen Yanxiao was reluctant to give a more detailed explanation about the potion, and the teachers were still unable to classify it.
Even though they were dumbstruck that a first-year student dared to cause trouble there, they also knew that it was impossible to defeat Shangguan Xiao’s Replenish Potion no matter which potion she had made. However, the competition also involved Tang Nazhi. If they did not have a good reason for Shen Yanxiao’s failure in the competition, they would be held accountable over the fact that Tang Nazhi had to leave the Saint Laurent Academy due to the wager.
Tang Nazhi was part of the Black Tortoise Family. If they were to chase him out of the academy without the correct facts, then they would get into a sticky situation if the Black Tortoise Family were to raise an issue about that.
They were only ordinary teachers, so they did not dare to offend the Black Tortoise Family.
The teachers then gathered to try to come up with a solution for them to be fair and just in the competition.
There were no results yet, and after a long wait, the spectators began to stretch their necks to peek at the arena.
“What’s the matter? Aren’t they examining Shen Jue’s potion? Why isn’t there any news yet?” The competition had unexpectedly come to a standstill.
“I don’t know. It seems like the teachers are unable to identify Shen Jue’s potion.”
“Is that even a potion? I saw him screwed around with the process earlier, so I thought it was a failed potion.”
“If it were a failed potion, the teachers would not be as hesitant as they are now.”
Some of the students became curious when they saw the behavior of the teachers.
It was extraordinary that a first-year student’s potion would cause such a dilemma between the teachers!
“Have you ever seen the potion that Xiaoxiao had made?” Qi Xia asked Tang Nazhi with narrowed eyes.
He shook his head and said, “I’ve never seen it. Even since she started learning with Ye Qing, I don’t really understand the potions that she had studied.”
Qi Xia stroked his jaw, but he did not continue to question Tang Nazhi.
The teachers finally made a decision. They could not identify the potion that Shen Yanxiao had produced, and it would be awkward to ask the person who made it. They decided to ask Pu Lisi’s opinion since he was also at the arena that day.
They had requested the Great Herbalist Pu Lisi to personally examine and identify the potion that Shen Yanxiao had produced.
Those teachers were quite smart. No matter their decision, they knew that it would be hard to explain it to Tang Nazhi.
Why should they not pass the problem with Shen Yanxiao’s potion to Pu Lisi? That way, they could maintain the perception of fair competition with the reputation of a Great Herbalist.
When they extended their invitation to Pu Lisi, he did not hesitate as he walked directly to the center of the arena.
