Beauty and the Bodyguard

Lu sanjian raised his head and laughed, not minding Lin Yi’s words, “It’s not like there haven’t been any in the past years. It’s Dean Sima’s first time here, so maybe he’s not used to it yet. We’ll know in the future.”

“Speaking of which, the fact that Hua Yao, that old fellow, was able to let Dean Sima lead a team to the martial Alliance of the continent to participate in the assessment shows that he has a lot of trust in Dean Sima! If that’s the case, doesn’t that mean that Dean Sima’s strength is even above that old fellow Hua Yao?”

“Tomorrow, I will personally lead the team and travel with Dean Sima. This is because my alchemy skills are second to none in the Qingshan Alchemy Academy. This is an indisputable fact. For the sake of the Academy, I can only do it myself. I’m not like Dean Sima, who is so powerful that he can already replace that old man Hua Yao!”

Lin Yi frowned-what was she talking about? What did he mean by “replaced”?

Even sowing discord can’t be so blatant, right?

However, Hua Yao isn’t here either. It’ll take a long time for your words to get back to the Fuyao apothecary school, so it’d be a wonder if you fell into a trap!

Moreover, even if Hua Yao heard it, the old man would not take it seriously. He might even give Lu sanjian a like.

But it was also because of this that Lin Yi didn’t understand. He didn’t understand what Lu sanjian was doing!

Lu sanjian didn’t give Lin Yi any time to think-he suddenly clapped his hands, and the waiters started serving the dishes.

“Since Dean Sima doesn’t want to perform, then forget it. However, sparring is still a must. After all, it’s a traditional program! Sparring doesn’t matter!”

Lu sanjian waited for the dishes to be served and stretched out his hand with a smile,””These dishes are all extremely precious medicinal cuisines prepared by the alchemy Association of the spirit bow conferred Empire. As for the specific formula, even I don’t know!”

“Why don’t we use these medicinal cuisines as the topic? after we try them, we can tell them the various medicinal herbs contained in them. Don’t worry, Dean Sima. If I say I don’t know the recipe, then I don’t know. I can guarantee this with my life. Besides, no one in our Green Mountain Alchemy School knows the recipe!”

Lin Yi raised an eyebrow. Lu sanjian was forcing Lin Yi to come out no matter what!

If Lin Yi continued to back down, then the school’s face would be gone!

“Dean Sima, then let’s have a competition! It’s just sparring anyway, no big deal!”

One of Lin Yi’s mentors couldn’t take it anymore. He lowered his voice and said,”Although they came prepared, they might not have much confidence in defeating us!”

He felt that Lin Yi was too much of a coward-they’d look down on him if he didn’t take the offer.

“Dean Sima, your instructors all have the will to fight, so why do you have to forcefully stop them? It’s just a spar!”

Lu sanjian chuckled a few times.”As an Alchemist, identifying medicinal herbs is a basic skill. It’s a bit too much to say that we’re sparring. We’re just having fun during the meal. There’s no prize, so why should I refuse?”

Lin Yi looked around indifferently. He knew that he had to spar with the people from Qingshan Alchemy School today no matter what. If he left right now, he would really fall out with them!

“Since Dean Lu said it’s just for fun, then let’s play!”

Lin Yi finally nodded, and the mentor who’d just spoken immediately perked up, eager to fight!

He had some experience in identifying medicinal ingredients and his tongue was extremely sharp. Therefore, he felt that he had a high chance of identifying the contents of the medicinal cuisine!

“Good! Since that’s the case, then allow this Lu to have a spar with the experts of the fu Yao apothecary school!”

The person beside Lu sanjian smiled and took the initiative to volunteer.

Lin Yi remembered that she was the honorary Vice Dean of Qingshan Alchemy School, and her name was Lu renjia!

He wasn’t an important figure in Qingshan Alchemy School, and it would be a bit embarrassing for Lin Yi to fight him.

After all, Lin Yi now represented the entire Fuyao Alchemy School. Unless Lu sanjian made a move, no one else was worth Lin Yi’s time. Unless there was really no one else, only Lin Yi!

“Dean Sima, please allow me to ask Vice Dean Lu renjia for some guidance!”

Lin Yi nodded in agreement to the mentor’s request-this was the best response he could come up with.

The two of them came to the side, and a waiter brought over a small tea table. He took a little from a dish and put two small butterflies on it, then bowed and invited them to taste it.

“Dean Sima, this is called the eight Treasures ten treasures soup. It’s said to be made from eighteen different precious herbs, with more than ten other ingredients.”

“The supplementary ingredients are not included. The alchemy Association has already sent over the list of 18 precious medicinal ingredients. After the competition is over, the list can be made public to determine the winner.”

Lin Yi nodded and asked,”Then how do we compete? After the two of them tried, would they each give the answer? Wouldn’t it be unfair if the other party heard it?”

“Dean Sima’s concerns are exactly the same, so the method of the competition is not for each person to say their answer, but for everyone to take turns saying their answer. After saying it, they can’t say anything else.”

Lu sanjian was explaining to Lin Yi on the surface, but he was also talking to the two competitors.”For example, if the one who said it first said ‘one’, then the one who said it later can’t say ‘one’ anymore. You can only say something other than ‘one’. If you can only taste ‘one’, then you lose.”

Lin Yi nodded. The rules were simple-one person, one herb each, until someone couldn’t say anything.

“There’s a time limit for each person to give the answer. The maximum is 30 seconds. If you exceed the time limit, you’ll give up this opportunity and the other party will continue.”

In this kind of competition, the one who made the first move would have an advantage. However, Lu sanjian said very generously,””Dean Sima, you’ve come from afar and are our guests, so you should answer first!”

As they spoke, the two of them had already picked up the small plates and tasted it. Then, they closed their eyes and carefully tasted the medicinal cuisine in their mouths.

Lu renjia opened her eyes first, smiling at her opponent without saying a word, evidently agreeing with Lu sanjian’s suggestion to let Lin Yi go first.

Lin Yi’s mentor opened his eyes two seconds later, but he didn’t decline. “It’s impolite to refuse. Then let’s begin the gathering of the Dragon’s bile stamen!”

This was the first medicinal herb!

Lu renjia clapped her hands with a smile as a sign of appreciation. Then she said unhurriedly,””Purple-leafed Sparrow tongue!”

“Yellow stone Vermilion fruit!”

“Red wood heart Leaf!”

…………

The two of them didn’t have any chance to pause, and they listed out twelve medicinal herbs in a row.

These herbs were relatively common. They were precious, but most alchemists had seen them before.
