Chapter 446 - Just the Beginning (3)

At the most critical moment, a pair of strong arms supported her from behind.

Shen Yanxiao turned around and saw Qi Xia’s handsome smiling face.

“You’ve worked hard,” Qi Xia said with a smile.

Yan Yu stood beside them and cast a few blessing spells to help her to recover some strength. As for Yang Xi, he fended off the other students so that he could clear a pathway for her.

Under the trio’s protection, Shen Yanxiao left the competition venue like a winner as thousands of cheers surrounded her.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

It was a day that the students from the Herbalist Division at the Saint Laurent Academy could walk with their heads held high. It was also the day that Shen Jue’s name was carved into their minds.

From that moment onward, the title of the Herbalist Division’s top student no longer belonged to Shangguan Xiao but instead, to everyone’s hero, Shen Jue!

The trio brought her back to the casino’s lounge area.

Shen Yanxiao laid down on the bench and enjoyed her friend’s care and concern for her. Her pale face had finally recovered some traces of redness.

“I’ll get someone to deliver the competition result so Tang Nazhi would hear about it the moment he reached home,” Qi Xiao poured a cup of water for Shen Yanxiao and supported her as he fed her.

Shen Yanxiao took a sip to regain her strength. However, she shook her head.

“Wait a little longer before you do that.”

“What are we waiting for?” Yan Yu brought her a bowl of light porridge and sat beside her.

An evil glint flickered in her bright eyes as she looked at her three friends and said mysteriously, “Don’t tell me that you believed this simple competition is all I’m doing to avenge Tang Nazhi?”

The trio looked at each other; they had, indeed, thought that.

Both Shangguan Xiao and Luo Fan had proud and arrogant personalities. Shen Yanxiao’s victory against them would have crushed their self-esteem as geniuses thoroughly, and that would have been a massive setback for them.

Shen Yanxiao smiled and shook her head.

“Tell me, after the competition, did Pu Lisi take Shangguan Xiao and Luo Fan away with him?”

“Yes, I saw some Yates Academy’s students took them away,” Yang Xi said.

Shen Yanxiao took a deep breath and laid on the extended bench with a satisfied smile. She squinted her eyes and looked at the ceiling with a sinister smile on her lips.

“I knew it. Pu Lisi, that old man, would never ask the antidote from me. With his status, he would think that a Slow Potion is a common potion, and he would not be curious about it. I was aiming for his arrogance and confidence!”

“What do you mean?” They did not know anything about Shen Yanxiao’s plans. They thought that she had had her revenge, but from her tone of voice, it looked like it was only the beginning.

Shen Yanxiao said, “I’ve said it before. I want Luo Fan to know that he would not qualify as an herbalist after this competition.”

The trio nodded as Shen Yanxiao had indeed mentioned that.

“Their defeat today would only dampen his spirit, but it would not end his path as an herbalist. What I want is for him to never touch another potion in his life again!” Shen Yanxiao’s voice was soft, but it made their hair stand anyway.

“You did something to the Slow Potion?” QI Xia was a clever man; he immediately got the significance of her words.

Shen Yanxiao quirked her eyebrows; she had no intention to keep it from her friends. “I never said that it was a Slow Potion. However, if Pu Lisi were to create an antidote for Slow Potion, he would personally destroy his disciple and that young master from the Luo Family!”
