When Yun Sheng and Gufeng returned to the public student dormitory, a figure was waiting at the door.
She didn't need to look to know that it was Abandoned.
Abandoned was a strange person. Other than the first time they met, Yun Sheng had never heard him speak.
In the dark night, Abandoned's eyes were green, like a coiled viper. He glanced at Yun Sheng and Gufeng. "Mentor Merry is looking for you."
He used the word you, not us.
Although they were both members of the Thirteen Magic Potion Group, Abandoned had never worked with Yun Sheng and Gufeng.
He was the first to leave the public student dormitory every day and the last to return. No one knew where he went.
After delivering the message, Abandoned left quietly.
"Damned brat, always running away by himself," Yun Sheng muttered.
"Yun Sheng, you can't... blame Abandoned," Gufeng explained.
Abandoned's background was quite pitiful. He had no family and had been alone since he was young. Although he was cold, he was a nice person. At that time, Gufeng was born with a stutter and poor chanting ability. In other Magic Potion groups, the mentors and members were not willing to accept him.
Only Mentor Merry and Abandoned didn't despise Gufeng and accepted him.
Every time someone bullied Gufeng, Abandoned would stop them. Gufeng said that Abandoned was just not used to having friends.
Although Gu Feng's family was poor, he lived in a large and healthy family. That was why he had such an optimistic and open-minded personality.
This was also why Yun Sheng was willing to be friends with Gufeng. No matter what setbacks he faced, Gufeng could get by with a silly smile.
"Forget it, why throw a tantrum with a half-grown child?" Yun Sheng mocked herself.
The two of them arrived at Mentor Merry's residence.
"You two are too late." Mentor Merry's expression was not good. Ever since Yun Sheng and Gufeng defeated Song Jie's group, she had been happy for a few days. But tonight, her expression was gloomy, as if someone owed her hundreds of gold coins.
"Mentor, we went to the night market," Gufeng explained.
"You've been in the Royal Magic Academy for half a year and haven't made much progress in magic. You're still in the mood to stroll around? I just received news that this year's final assessment includes Magic Potion, Basic Magic and Magic Combat. Cang Song is one of the examiners. The students who don't pass will be kicked out. "No wonder Mentor Merry's expression was so ugly. She was always mocked at the end of the year's final assessment.
The final examination of the Royal Magic Academy was held once a year. It was an examination of the cultivation of the entire academy.
The Magic Potion and Magic and Combat Department to compete in the final assessment.
Before Yun Sheng's arrival, the Thirteen Magic Group was already at the bottom of the pack. Instructor Mei Li did not want to be at the bottom of the pack in the final exam.
Mentor Merry had originally planned to regain some face in this final assessment. Who knew that Cang Song would be chosen as the examiner? She was especially worried about Gufeng. That kid's chanting was too weak and could not cast a complete spell. This was no doubt disadvantageous to him in the final assessment.
If the members of Group Thirteen were to fall into Cang Song's hands, they would not be able to get away with it.
She even suspected that Cang Song would secretly play tricks on them.
"Ah … Then what do we do?" Gufeng began to sweat when he heard about the final assessment.
"The three of you, from tomorrow onwards, prepare to undergo hellish training. Those who do not meet the requirements are not allowed to sleep, rest or eat. The training includes magic memorization, small magic tests and Magic Combat. Especially you, Gufeng. If you are at the bottom of the pack again, there is no need to wait until the end of the year. I will directly kick you out of Group Thirteen. "Mentor Merry frowned.
"Yun Sheng, you stay for now." As the three of them prepared to leave, Mentor Merry called out to Yun Sheng.
Ever since she found out that Yun Sheng was Yun Canghai's daughter, Merry's attitude towards Yun Sheng was not like that of a mentor towards a student, but more like that of an elder towards a junior.
"I heard that your performance in the Magic Combat class was not bad. How do you feel about it? How is your mastery of the elementary magic?" Merry was not worried about Yun Sheng in any way. She believed that Brother Yun's daughter's talent was not bad.
"My proficiency in magic has increased a lot, especially after the battle. I have comprehended more. I have basically mastered all the major elementary magic of the Nature attribute." Yun Sheng's magic skills had indeed improved a lot. She had Shennong's Pupil and Trillium's Hand as her foundation, and she also had the magic scepter blessed by the elves in her hand. Her speed in dodging and using magic was faster than others.
"I heard that you have not formally attended a Magic Potion class. During this period, you should learn from Gufeng how to concoct Potions of Agility and Detoxification Potions. He has some talent in Magic Potions." After watching the battle between Yun Sheng and Song Jie, Mentor Merry also felt that Yun Sheng only lacked actual combat experience. Her comprehension of magic was very high, and it was too much of a waste for her to only practice elementary magic.
Yun Sheng secretly stuck out her tongue. If Mentor Merry knew that she had just concocted a bottle of mid-grade Agility Potion this afternoon, who knew what kind of expression she would have.
However, it was better for her not to talk about this for now.
"I have here the magic scrolls for the Intermediate Earth Magic, Earth Escape, and the Fire Magic, Fire Net Recovery. Learn as much as you can before the Intermediate Examination," Instructor Merry said as she handed Yun Sheng two magic scrolls.
A magic scroll was also a type of magic tool. It was a special scroll used to record magic on the Boundless Continent. It was written using magic elements. Not only did it record the secrets of practicing magic, it could also display magic images.
However, the price of a magic scroll wasn't cheap, because it was said that only Magi who had reached the level of Saint Magi could make magic scrolls.
An Intermediate Magic Scroll was worth at least a hundred gold coins. Teacher Merry had taken out two Magic Scrolls in one go. This was truly an eye-opener for the miser Yun Sheng.
Yun Sheng didn't know that being a Magic Apothecary was a very profitable profession.
Teacher Mei Li was a rich woman.
"These two Magic Scrolls aren't given to you for free. You have to promise me that in this year's final examination, you will do your best to protect Gufeng," Teacher Mei Li said seriously.
"Ah!" Yun Sheng didn't react.
"Gufeng has a lot of potential. For the Thirteen Magic Potion Groups, he is very likely to be an extremely important person for your growth in the next few years. Therefore, before he grows up, you and Abandon must protect him well. I have also said the same thing to Abandon. The Thirteen Magic Potion Groups are a whole, and no one can leave each other, "Teacher Mei Li solemnly exhorted.
What Teacher Mei Li didn't know was that her words tonight would affect Yun Sheng and Abandon for a long time in the future. Even when the three of them grew up to be the top existences in the continent, when their friendship faced the test of life and death, the three of them didn't give up on each other.
Yun Sheng solemnly nodded, tightly holding the two magic scrolls.
