Reborn as the daughter of Qian Daoliu

Chapter 9 : The Essence of Physical Training

After the extensive physical training, the students were escorted to their dormitories by the staff. Although tired and exhausted, each student had a small smile on their face as Liu Bei praised them for their perseverance.

Qian Ruoxi, her dorm mates and the other girls were escorted into the common bathroom by the staff. A strong medicinal smell washed over the room. Inside the rows of bathtubs, greenish-black liquid could be seen, emitting the strong medicinal scent from earlier.

Medicinal bath!

This was nothing new to Qian Ruoxi. Every time she finished her physical exercises, her maids would prepare the medicinal bath on her father's orders. This medicinal liquid helps to relieve fatigue and muscle pain. It also helps to strengthen muscles and bones.

The girls were made to lie on the medicinal bath inside the tub with the help of female staff. Due to tiredness, all the girls except Qian Ruoxi slept on the tub. Qian Ruoxi, on the other hand, sat in lotus position and began to absorb the medicinal ingredients of the liquid. Warmth invaded her body from all directions, and the comfortable feeling almost made her sigh in relief. After a few hours of sleep, the girls began to wake up. Lin Xiang, who was lying next to Qian Ruoxi's bathtub, let out a loud sigh of relief, almost waking up the remaining sleepy girls. Sensing the strange looks the girls were giving her, she grinned sheepishly and apologized with her eyes.

The four girls washed off the medicinal liquid with clear water. After putting on the bathrobes provided by the dormitory staff, they rushed to their room.

When they saw the tray of food, they almost cried. Now they didn't have to waste extra time walking to the cafeteria building!

They rushed to the tray and started eating in big bites. Even Mei Renyu and Qian Ruoxi dropped their etiquettes and gobbled up the food. Everyone was satisfied after they finished eating.

"Ahh, the food was so satisfying. It is like a reward for enduring that torturous training." Yun Caihong sighed.

Not being the one to be left out of a conversation, Lin Xiang said, "This medicinal liquid was amazing. It should have been made from precious herbs such as Snow Lotus, Red Ginseng Root, White Peony Root, and even the rare Imperial Dragon Root. I can already feel the energy seeping into my bones. "

"What do these herbs do?" Yun Caihong asked with curious eyes.

"Snow Lotus is a precious herb that helps relieve muscle pain and soreness, White Peony Root relieves fatigue, and Red Ginseng Root strengthens muscles and bones. As the Spirit Hall has been a well-established organisation for thousands of years, it was not surprising that they used these precious herbs, but what surprised me was the Imperial Dragonroot. It is a rare herb that requires extremely rare conditions to grow. Because of this, they are only grown in rare places and in small quantities. It can only be bought at auctions and can cost a fortune. This herb not only helps to relax the muscles and strengthen the foundations, but it also acts as a catalyst for other ingredients, enhancing their medicinal effects. I didn't expect the Spirit Hall to be so generous with such a rare herb. It looks like my decision to join the Spirit Hall was not wrong." Lin Xiang said, with a slight melancholy in her eyes instead of her usual liveliness.

"I didn't expect you to know so much about medicinal herbs." Mei Renyu said, surprise evident in her tone.

Lin Xiang puffed out her little chest proudly, "Of course, not only have I studied the effects and use of medicinal herbs, but I have also perfected the first level of acupuncture."

"From the looks of it, you have the talent to become a doctor." Qian Ruoxi complimented her, to which Lin Xiang grinned happily. One could even see the imaginary tail wagging behind her.
