446 - This is just the Beginning (3)

At that critical moment, a pair of powerful arms held her from behind. When Shen Yanxiao turned her head, Qi Xia's smiling handsome face entered her sight. 

"You had a hard time," Qi Xia said with a smile. 

Yan Yu, who was standing aside, cast a few blessings on Shen Yanxiao's body for her to recover some strength. While Yang Xi blocked the other students from coming in and opened a path for Shen Yanxiao. Under the joint efforts of the trio, Shen Yanxiao left the pharmacy room under the cheers of thousands of people as the victor. 

This day would be the pride of Holy Roland School's Pharmaceutical Branch. And from this day onwards, Shen Jue would always be remembered in the hearts of each Holy Roland School's student. 

From this moment, the top seat of Holy Roland School's Pharmaceutical Branch no longer belonged to Shangguan Xiao, but to the hero in all of their hearts—Shen Jue! 

Qi Xia and the others directly went back to the casino and straight into the lounge at the backhall with Shen Yanxiao. Shen Yanxiao lay down on a bench while nonchalantly enjoying the care of the three people. Her pale face finally restored a trace of floridness. 

"I'll send someone to pass the results of the match to the imperial capital. Nazhi will be able to receive the news after he has arrived."

Qi Xia poured a glass of water for Shen Yanxiao and helped feed her. Shen Yanxiao drank the water. After she had slowly recovered some strength, she slightly shook her head. 

"Let's still wait." 

"Wait for what?"

Yan Yu served a bowl of light porridge and then sat aside. Shen Yanxiao's clear eyes flashed a hint of nasty light.

She looked around mysteriously at her three partners and said, "You couldn't be thinking that my win in the competition is my way to exact revenge for Tang Nazhi? " 

The three glanced at one another. That was really what they thought so. Whether it was Shangguan Xiao or Luo Fan, both of them had always thought that they were above others. They had always been arrogant. Shen Yanxiao's victory this time completely shattered their pride as geniuses. How big of a blow would that be to them. Shen Yanxiao smiled and shook her head. 

"Tell me, did Pu Lisi directly take Shangguan Xiao and Luo Fan away right at the end of the match?" 

"Well, yes. I saw with my own eyes that the students of Yeats Academy took them away," Yang Xi replied. 

Shen Yanxiao took a deep breath. She had a satisfied expression while lying on the bench. Her pair of eyes narrowed as they looked at the ceiling and her mouth revealed a hint of cold smile. 

"I know that that old man Pu Lisi will definitely not ask me for the antidote. With his status, he will inevitably think that Slow-acting Potion is just ordinary stuff and will not care at all. And that exactly is what I want—his arrogance, his self-confidence!" 

"What does that mean?"

The three people obviously did not guess Shen Yanxiao's intention. They thought that Shen Yanxiao's retaliation was already over. But listening to what she said, everything seemed to be just beginning. 

Shen Yanxiao said, "Didn't I say that after this competition, I will let Luo Fan know that he is not qualified to be a Pharmacist." 

The three nodded. Shen Yanxiao had really said these words before. 

"His defeat in the match will only dampen his spirit but will not affect his Pharmacist road. What I want is for him to be unable to touch Pharmaceutics in his life ever again!" Shen Yanxiao's voice was very gentle, yet it still let people feel creepy. 

"Did you do some tricks on the Slow-acting Potion?"

With Qi Xia's intelligence, he immediately thought of the doubtful points in Shen Yanxiao's statement. Shen Yanxiao slightly raised her eyebrows.

She did not intend to conceal anything as she said, "Tricks? I have never said I concocted a Slow-acting Potion. If Pu Lisi really treats it as just a Slow-acting Potion, I believe he will soon personally destroy the Pharmacist road of his disciple and that young master Luo Fan!"
