Yun Sheng and Gu Feng finally returned to the scholarship student dormitory. Where a figure was waiting at the door.

It was Qi Gubian.

Qi Gubian was a weird person. Yun Sheng had heard him speak only a few times.

In the dark night, Qi Gubian's green eyes were like a venomous snake. He looked at Yun Sheng and Gu Feng, "Mentor Mei Li is looking for you."

He used you, not us.

Although he was also a member of the 13th Potion Team, Qi Gubian had never actively interacted with Yun Sheng and Gu Feng.

He was the first to leave the dormitory every day and the last to return. No one knew where he went.

After delivering the message, Qi Gubian left quietly

"Always in a hurry to leave." Yun Sheng muttered.

"Yun Sheng, you can't... blame Qi Gubian." Gu Feng said.

Qi Gubian's life had also been quite pitiful. He had no family. He had been alone since he was a child. Although he had a cold attitude, he is very good at heart.

Due to Gu Feng's natural stammering and poor chanting ability, Gu Feng was rejected by every mentor and no group wanted him at that time.

Only Mentor Mei Li and Qi Gubian didn't dislike Gu Feng and accepted him.

Every time others bullied Gu Feng, Qi Gubian would stop them. Gu Feng also told her that Qi Gubian wasn't used to having friends.

Although Gu Feng's family was poor, his family was comfortable and satisfied with their current life. Which was why he had developed his happy and open-minded personality.

This was also why Yun Sheng was willing to be friends with Gu Feng. No matter what kind of setbacks he faced, Gu Feng was able to muddle through it with his silly smile.

'Forget it, why mess with a child' Yun Sheng mocked herself in her mind.

The two of them arrived at Mentor Mei Li's residence.

"You two are late." Mentor Mei Li didn't look good. She had been happy the past few days since Yun Sheng and Gu Feng had defeated Song Jie's group. But tonight, her face was dark, as if someone owed her a hundred and eighty gold coins.

"Mentor, we went to the night market." Gu Feng explained.

"It's been more than half a year since you arrived at the Royal Magic Academy. All this time your magic hasn't had much of an improvement and you still have the heart to play around? I've just gotten word that this year's final exam will cover Magic Potions, Basic Magic and Magic Combat and Cang Song is one of the examiners."

"Students who failed this exam would be kicked right out of the academy." No wonder Mentor Mei Li's face was so ugly. She had been ridiculed every time an exam had been held.

The Royal Magic Academy's final exam, held once a year, was an exam for all the students of the academy.

The Magic Potion Department and Magic Fighting Department would also be competing with each other.

Before Yun Sheng's arrival, the 13th Potion Team was always at the dead end of the Departments. So, Mentor Mei Li didn't want to be the last place in the final exam.

Mentor Mei Li originally thought she would be able to keep some face in this final exam. But now, Cang Song was chosen as examiner. She was especially worried about Gu Feng, this kid's chanting ability was almost too weak to perform a complete spell. Which was undoubtedly detrimental to the assessment.

The members of the 13th Potion Team would also definitely gain no benefits whatsoever if they were examined by Cang Song.

She even suspected that Cang Song would try something bad.

"Ah... what should I do?" As soon as Gu Feng heard about the final exam, he started to sweat.

"You three, starting tomorrow, prepare to undergo devilish training. Those who do not meet the requirements won't be allowed to sleep or rest or eat. The training will include memorizing spells, improvement of magic power and control, as well as magic combat training. Especially you, Gu Feng, if you hang behind again this time, you won't need to wait for the end of the year, I'll just kick you out myself." Mentor Mei Li frowned.

"Yun Sheng, you stay first." Mentor Mei Li called out to Yun Sheng as the three of them were ready to leave.

Ever since she discovered that Yun Sheng was Yun Canghai's daughter, Mei Li's attitude towards Yun Sheng was not like that of a mentor to a student. But more like that of an elder towards a junior.

"I heard that you did well in the magic combat class. What do you think, how far have you understood the elementary magic class?" Mei Li had no doubts about Yun Sheng. She believed that Brother Yun's daughter's talent couldn't be bad.

"My proficiency in magic has improved a lot. Especially after magic combat class. I've basically mastered the elementary spells of the four main attributes." Yun Sheng had indeed improved a lot. She had Shen Nong's Pupil and Yearning Life Technique as a base. And with the magic scepter blessed by the wind elves, her speed in dodging and using magic was a notch faster than others.

"I heard that you haven't had any formal potion classes yet. For the time being, you will learn magic potion refining from Gu Feng. He has some talent when it comes to magic potions." After seeing the fight between Song Jie and Yun Sheng, Mentor Mei Li also felt that Yun Sheng just lacked actual combat experience. Her magic comprehension was high. Just practicing elementary magic was too wasteful for her.

Yun Sheng secretly bit her tongue. If Mentor Mei Li knew that she had just configured a bottle of mid-grade agility potion this afternoon, she didn't know what expression she would reveal.

But it was better if she kept this matter to herself for now.

"I have the intermediate earth spell Earth Escape and fire spell Fire Net here, try to understand them as much as you can before the exam." Mentor Mei Li said while handing Yun Sheng two spell scrolls.

Spell Scrolls were also a type of magic tool. A special scroll used to record magic in the Wu JI Continent. They were written using magic elements and it not only contained tips for magic practice, but also displayed images of the spell.

However, Spell Scrolls were expensive, as it was said that only magicians who had reached the level of Great Magister could make Spell Scrolls.

An intermediate Spell Scroll was worth at least a hundred gold coins and Mentor Mei Li took out two Spell Scrolls at once. Which really astonished Scrooge Yun Sheng.

Yun Sheng didn't know that magic potion master was a very lucrative business.

Mentor Mei Li was a very rich woman.

"These two Spell Scrolls aren't given to you for free either, you must promise me that you will do your best to protect Gu Feng during this year's final exam." Mentor Mei Li stated.

"Ah!" Yun Sheng didn't respond, occupied with the wonder of wealth.

"Gu Feng has great potential. For the 13th Potion Team, he will most likely be an extremely critical factor for your further growth. So, before he awakens his talent, you and Qi Gubian must protect him. I already said these words to Qi Gubian. The 13th Potion Team, as a whole, no one can be separated from the others." Mentor Mei Li solemnly instructed.

Mentor Mei Li did not know that her words that night would influence Yun Sheng and Qi Gubian for a long time to come. Even when the three of them grew into the top existences on the continent, they wouldn't abandon each other even in the face of death.

Yun Sheng nodded solemnly and held the two Spell Scrolls tightly.
