Chapter 248 - 110: Who Is the Genius?

Chapter 248: Chapter 110: Who Is the Genius?

The girl named Lan from the Female Magic Academy maintained a demeanor neither servile nor overbearing, showing that she had excellent manners.

Zhou Qingchuan nodded, "If I’m not mistaken, the cloaks you are wearing are woven from Phoenix Feathers, aren’t they?"

Although Zhou Qingchuan had heard about the identity of the Crown Prince of Great Zhou, he didn’t show excessive deference.

Instead, he was very respectful towards the few young Mages who were excessively formidable.

Phoenix, that is a Holy Beast of Holy rank. It is said that the Phoenix possesses Immortal Power and its feathers are in themselves a magical holy beast.

Its tears can heal all wounds, and its feathers can be immune to most Magic Attacks.

Of course, such claims exaggerate the magical properties of the Phoenix, but the fact that Phoenix Feathers can resist ordinary Magic Attacks is indisputable.

Reminded by Zhou Qingchuan, the onlookers who hadn’t left shifted their gaze onto the Magic Cloaks of the three Mages. Indeed, the material of the Magic Cloaks, which was indistinct, shimmered with the colors of the red Phoenix Feathers.

Only the trainees from the Mainland Magic Elite Camp are qualified to own a Phoenix Feather Cloak.

The Mages from Mainland Magic Elite Camp wear Magic Robes mixed with Phoenix Feathers, but for Martial Artists, their Battle Armor is different — it is said to be made from Dragon Scales.

However, those have always been just rumors, as ordinary people rarely come into contact with members of the Mainland Elite Camp.

"Steward Zhou is indeed as knowledgeable as the rumors suggest. We are trainees from the Magic Elite Camp. These two are my junior brother and sister. We happened to come to Luoxia City due to the needs of a trial. Since my juniors have never attended any auction before, I, as their senior sister, have brought them here to broaden their horizons," the female trainee said with poise.

Zhou Qingchuan’s charm is indeed appealing to men and women, young and old alike.

The three of them originally came just to broaden their experience, but unexpectedly at the auction, they saw a Magic Potion that piqued their curiosity — Moon God’s Praise.

Among the three, the slightly older female trainee named Lan, was herself a Magic Pharmacist.

Since joining the Magic Elite Camp, Lan had dedicated years to researching how to change the physique of those with poor Magic Physique.

But she had never succeeded.

It was just unfortunate that she didn’t carry many gold coins with her, which led to Chen Luohe snatching away the Magic Potion at the last moment.

Having always been a prodigy, she had never faced any setbacks. Yet today, she suffered a loss at the auction, which inevitably left her feeling displeased.

Just as she was about to leave, she was insulted by Chen Lianlian for no reason, and one can imagine how annoyed she was.

That’s why she didn’t hesitate to teach Chen Lianlian a lesson.

What Royal Magic Academy? To these trainees from the Magic Elite Camp, it’s simply inferior.

Chen Lianlian also knew she was at fault and couldn’t utter a word in her defense.

At this point, with people from the Magic Elite Camp arriving, it goes without saying that they must be here for the Seven-leaf Purple Ginseng.

It looks like this battle for the ginseng is going to be even hotter.

"Actually, Miss, you don’t have to be so troubled. Please wait a moment. I’ll contact her directly to see if she’s willing to meet you," Zhou Qingchuan also saw Yun Sheng, their eyes met, and Yun Sheng nodded silently.

Upon hearing this, Lan readily agreed. As for the Crown Prince of Great Zhou and his Crown Princess Consort who was publicly humiliated, they naturally couldn’t stay any longer and hastily left the place.

When Yun Sheng, Ye Beiming, and Qi arrived at the Wuji Auction House’s reception room, the three from the Magic Elite Camp were already waiting there with tea.

At first glance, even the usually indifferent Lan couldn’t help but be captivated by Ye Beiming’s appearance.

Such a cold and reserved man, except towards Yun Sheng, Ye Beiming mostly remains expressionless, but it is this very lack of expression that draws people in involuntarily.

However, Lan soon realized that the Magic Pharmacist Steward Zhou had mentioned was not that dazzlingly handsome man, but the female Mage standing beside him.

The female Mage had an ethereal beauty, a pristine face with spirited black eyes.

"Did you concoct this medicine?" Lan still harbored some disbelief.

"If the medicine you’re referring to is Moon God’s Praise, then it should be so," Yun Sheng’s attitude surprised Zhou Qingchuan greatly.

She seemed completely unafraid of the Elite Camp.

Lan actually liked Yun Sheng’s approach; she was straightforward, loathing nothing more than others being deceitful and evasive.

"Can you tell me the secret to making it?" Lan asked directly.

If it had been any other Magic Pharmacist, they would surely have been angered by Lan’s impertinence, but Yun Sheng simply replied, "Actually, it’s just a bottle of Moonlight Water."

"Moonlight Water?" This took Zhou Qingchuan by surprise.

Every Mage knew what Moonlight Water was.

Moonlight Water is a type of concoction prepared by the Mainland Magic Temple and some medical facilities using Moonlight Grass.

It’s not even considered a high-quality magic medicine; Moonlight Water’s effect is only to slowly alter one’s Magic Physique and certainly not enough to cause a complete rebirth for someone with no aptitude for magic.

If Yun Sheng had sold him a bottle of Moonlight Water, and he had then sold it for the exorbitant price of one hundred thousand gold coins, the consequences would be unimaginable if the customer tested it and found it was only Moonlight Water.

"Impossible, that isn’t Moonlight Water. I am a Magic Pharmacist, and I am certain that the potion, which looked like molten lava, is definitely a high-grade magic medicine," Lan thought Yun Sheng was withholding the true knowledge deliberately, secretly blaming him for not being forthright.

Zhou Qingchuan breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

"It is Moonlight Water, but it’s Moonlight Water refined in the form of a magic potion. The Magic Elements used to make this type of Moonlight Water are the Water and Fire Elements," Yun Sheng pointed to Qi beside her, "If you still don’t believe me, you can ask this Mage here who witnessed me successfully concoct it."

Qi did not speak but simply nodded his head.

Water and Fire Elements, aren’t those conflicting Magic Elements? And yet someone used these two independently harmonious yet volatile Magic Elements together to concoct a new type of magic potion.

Has this female Mage gone mad?

The possibility of catastrophes from the interaction between conflicting Magic Elements made the three trainees from the Elite Magic Camp shudder unconsciously.

Their view of Yun Sheng altered in an instant.

"If it’s truly as you’ve said, then there would only be a handful of people capable of concocting such a potion," Lan said with a hint of regret, as she initially thought she could comprehend this new magic potion.

But listening to Yun Sheng, she knew it was impossible.

This method of potion-making was too dangerous; probably no regular Mages including her own Magic Tutor would allow such a dangerous practice.

"Regardless, I’m glad to have met you, a brave Mage. My name is Lan, a trainee at the Mainland Magic Elite Camp," Lan extended a friendly hand towards Yun Sheng.

"Nice to meet you, my name is Yun Sheng, and I am currently an exchange student at the Da Zhou Wuxuan Wuji Pavilion," Yun Sheng also felt a sense of affinity towards this forthright Elite Mage.

Both extended their hands and grasped each other’s firmly.
