Chapter 1113: Myrth: 83

(Unedited)

…

Rather than give the corpse of the black dragon to its child, Xin Ja decided to give it to Xushan. This would be a better option than letting Xuanlong eat his own parent. That would be too cruel, right?

Though in the beast aesthetics it does no matter, for him as a human, he would not dare eat his own father. So as his pet Xuanlong would also not do so.

Xin Ja waves his hand and a mountain-like corpse of the black dragon appears. He did not say anything anymore and just walks away from that place. He would also not let the little guy see his own parent be gobbled up by someone least the little guy develop some enmity towards Xushan.

It was already around 4 a.m. when Xin Ja return to the Wei mansion. He did not sleep but instead clean himself up and then began to meditate. He has consumed some of his Ki when harvesting and running through the forest, so he wanted to replenish them as soon as he could.

…

Three days have gone by and Xin Ja's life in the academy is just normal as usual. He would go to school, read, then come home and busy himself with his crafting.

In the past three days, he has improved his understanding and has attained wisdom through applying the knowledge that he has gotten from his unique vision. On this day, they are going to be having the welcoming party for the new freshmen in the academy later that day. So everyone feels a bit excited.

When Xin Ja enters the alchemy classroom, he was a bit surprised to see a couple of teachers in the class. When his eyes met with Teacher Hou Anqing, he could tell a complicated emotion in her eyes. It was like she is looking at him with surprise, astonishment, doubt, and disbelief.

And so when Xin Ja enters the class, one of the teachers quickly walks towards him.

"You are Xin Ja, right?" the teacher said.

"I am Teacher Ran… I was sent here to escort you guys…" he said.

Xin Ja then remembers that there was this battle between him and Qing Joming and that Teacher Ma and his chosen students. But in the three days, he has not heard of this. It was as if the rumor suddenly stopped spreading for some reason.

Xin Ja and Qing Joming walks towards the potion room following the teachers while the rest of their classmates began to murmur. Surprisingly Teacher Hou did not follow them and she just continues with her classes.

When the two arrive inside the potion room, they saw Master Lang, the teacher of Qing Joming, and beside him is the haughty Teacher Ma.

"Ahh… Young Ja and my stupid student… Haha… come in… come in…" Master Lang said with a snicker.

Qing Joming felt a bit embarrassed and scratches his head while entering the room. The other teachers did not enter but instead stand outside the room while the other two enter and stood by the door.

"Do not be alarmed the teachers are there to protect this secret…" Master Lang said with an amiable smile.

"I know that you have some conflict with Teacher Ma… I am here to persuade both parties to stop." Master Lang said as he slowly walks beside Xin Ja.

His towering figure is a bit tall for Xin Ja who is a bit short for his age. So he could only look up at the old man.

Master Lang suddenly bends down and smiled. "I know of your stubbornness even though you are a bit timid. But young lad, you hold something very precious that I did not want others to see it…"

Master Lang said near his ears which made Xin Ja feel a bit stunned. He then realized what the old man wanted him to do. Although he is a bit reluctant, he knew that it would be for the best. He did not want his stay in the school to be fraught with more trouble as it already is. So he nodded his head.

Xin Ja is a reasonable man and did not want troublesome situations actually. So he could acquiesce at this request from a senior.

When Teacher Ma saw the action of Master Lang he showed confusion in his eyes. He was told that Xin Ja is not a normal student. It would be better than this trouble will be resolved in peace. He did not want to, but this is the request of Master Lang, how could he say no to that?

And so… the problem with the two was about to be resolved… when suddenly…

"Master… I want to test my mettle with Teacher Ma. I wanted to see where I am currently is in the realm of alchemy…" Qing Joming said while cupping his hand.

Teacher Ma almost laughed when he heard such a challenge. But since Master Lang is here, he just let this be decided by him.

"Hmmm… Stubborn as usual… Alright, I permit this… Teacher Ma, please take it easy with this stupid student of mine…" Master Lang said with a nod.

Teacher Ma might be haughty but he is also a very good alchemist. So with that, the two began their contest.

On the side, Xin Ja did not join and just watch.

While the two are concocting potions, his eyes are planted on Teacher Ma. Suddenly he squinted his eyes and shook his head slightly.

Then not long later, the two are done and presented their potions to Master Lang.

"Xin Ja… What do you think these potions are?" he asked with a smile.

Xin Ja felt a bit embarrassed because in truth he did not know the names of the potions. So he cupped his hands and said.

"Master Lang… I am embarrassed to say that I did not know the names of these potions…"

But before he could continue, the usually silent Teacher Ma suddenly scoffed.

"Hah… Is this the so-called genius? He does not even know the names of the potions? Hahaha… Master Lang, aren't you mistaken about this?"

Master Lang frowns upon hearing this but did not say anything. In fact, he too feels a bit dismayed upon knowing that Xin Ja has such shallow knowledge in alchemy. He has already thought of ways on how to improve the young lad when it comes to his knowledge.

"Umm… I said I may not know their names… but… their effects, I am assured that I know them…" Xin Ja suddenly interjected.

The room became silent with those words. The timid expression on his face is the opposite of his words. At this time, Master Lang could already tell what type of person the young man is. He might be timid and shy, but he is clear of what is right and wrong in his mind. In that small mind of his, he knows of his own stand, and though he is shy, he would still stand by his own principles.

Upon hearing this, Teacher Ma could not help but sneer. But his sneering face soon turned into shock when the young man before him began talking.

"The red potion is a combination of herb that strengthens the skin of a person that drinks it. You can even call it a slight and temporary mutation. Judging from the number of herbs used the temporary mutation of skin hardening would last for 10 minutes… However, the setback of such a mutation can cause one to feel his body numb after ten minutes. Taking this potion would be bad in a long term…"

Xin Ja began to explain more about the compound used for the potion and how each compound reacts to the others.

After that, he put down the potion in his hand and walks to the next one.

This time, the expression of Master Ma turned a bit suspicious. When Xin Ja explained about the red potion that Qing Joming crafted, he could tell that the young man's explanation is correct. Plus, from the feeling, he got from the red potion he could already tell that it is a mid-grade potion.

But did this brat really determine as such by just watching them?

He wanted to listen more and now that it is his potion's turn, he could not help but show a slight smile on his face.

"This potion… is a low-tier 4th level potion." Xin Ja said which gained the frown of everyone in the room.

They could feel that the potion has a mid-tier or mid-grade effect on it, why would the young man tell them that it is a low-grade potion? From the start of his explanation, isn't he already making a big mistake?

Upon hearing those words, the expression of Teacher Ma turned into a sneer. He knew it! The young guy is just a scammer. He is not some genius alchemist, he is just a fraud. And the reason why he is able to explain the potion that Qing Joming concocted is that they have already planned this.

With this along, how could Teacher Ma not despise the fraudster?

He wanted to interject when suddenly… Xin Ja shook his head and puts the potion down on the table.. He then began to open his mouth to explain what the potion is.
