Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Nine Provinces, Langya City, No. 3 High School.

“I’ve never had a student as bad as you! Look, look! With this result, how can you have the cheek to smile so happily! There are less than five people in the entire class who passed the alchemy test! Do you still want to get into the top three schools? Ah!”

With a loud bang, the door of Class Four’s classroom was kicked open by Teacher Liang from the alchemy department. He strode to the podium and slammed the test paper in his hand on the table. He pointed at the students with trembling hands and reprimanded them bitterly.

The classroom was silent. Many students shrunk their heads like quails, not daring to look up at Teacher Liang.

Among those who failed, there was one of them!

Only a few students who were extremely confident in themselves were more natural and less nervous.

One of them was Feng Yin.

Teacher Liang’s gaze swept past the students one by one. When he saw the indifferent Feng Yin, the anger on his face decreased a lot.

“You should really study Feng Yin well. You’re all students, so how can he be so outstanding? This time, our Feng Yin’s results are still very stable. If it wasn’t for Feng Yin, I don’t know how embarrassed I would be.”

Before Teacher Liang could finish speaking, everyone immediately looked at Feng Yin. The light in their eyes was dazzling. Many of the female classmates’ gazes were glued to Feng Yin’s body. They would rather die than pull it out.

No one was surprised by Feng Yin’s results. It couldn’t be helped. Ever since he entered the academy, when had he not scored full marks in every exam? In the entire No. 3 High School, Feng Yin was a famous God of Studies. He was the kind of God of Studies whose scores were limited by the test papers.

Feng Yin could even occupy the number one position in the most difficult alchemy techniques all year round. He would get full marks every time.

At the thought of this, everyone could not help but look at Feng Yin with suspicion. If not for the fact that they had to verify the identity of humans before entering the academy, they would have suspected that Feng Yin was some herb that had become a spirit!

The difficulty of alchemy was famous. Not only was the knowledge system complicated, but the knowledge involved was also as vast as the sea of stars.

It was not for ordinary people to learn at all.

Not to mention the slight changes caused by the different ratios, and the changes in various medicinal properties in different environments.

Just one of them was enough for people to learn for their entire lives.

In the end, Feng Yin’s brain was like a computer, directly memorizing all this knowledge.

“Awesome!” Xiao Yu, who was also his best friend, turned his head and gave Feng Yin a thumbs up as he praised him.

“Piss off!” Feng Yin replied snappily.

“Alright!” Xiao Yu did not dare to go overboard. After teasing him, he quickly turned around.

At this moment, Teacher Liang had also finished knocking on the students’ heads and announced loudly. “I’ll prepare for the exam again next week. If you fail, make up for it with your vacation time!”

“No, Teacher Liang!”

“Teacher Liang, please let me off!”

The classroom was filled with wails.

Teacher Liang, who had caused all this, pretended not to hear anything and left after saying that. “Hurry up and revise. You can ask me or Feng Yin if you don’t know anything.”

Hearing Teacher Liang’s words, the students looked at each other. In the next moment, they simultaneously pounced towards Feng Yin.

“Brother Feng, save my dog life!”

“God Feng, save me!”

“Daddy, save me!”

A group of students were fighting for the best position next to Feng Yin. They were pushing each other, completely disregarding their friendship as classmates.

“Get out of my way!”

“How can a man like you have the cheek to squeeze with weak women like us?”

“Ah, where did you touch!”

“Brother, you must not have the heart to let me fail!”

All the female students in the class used their methods and successfully occupied the space beside Feng Yin. As for the male students, they were squeezed to the edge. Even Xiao Yu was not spared.

Someone covered his face that had been slapped and looked helpless. He clearly didn’t touch it, so why was she still accusing him? Forget it, he’ll just go look for Teacher Liang. At most, he’ll just be scolded!

A man was not afraid!

The female classmate, who had a fierce look on her face just now, immediately softened when she saw Feng Yin. Her voice was also soft.

Feng Yin had long known the true faces of these female students. The only thing that comforted him was that everyone’s questions were very orderly. The situation of a swarm of people asking questions had never happened before.

“Brother Feng, look at this question. Why does the Blood Lingzhi Grass have to be preserved with warm jade?”

“The Blood Lingzhi Grass is warm and volatile. There’s spiritual energy in the warm jade. The warmth it carries can maintain the medicinal properties.” Feng Yin answered without hesitation.

“Brother Feng, then why can the main ingredient of the Body Refinement Pill be replaced with the Snow Congealing Flower? And here, why can this medicinal catalyst be replaced with medicinal herbs like the Illusionary Heart Grass and the Divine Spirit Fruit?”

“The Black Thick Wood’s medicinal properties are cold. The main ingredient in this Body Refinement Pill is essence gathering.

“This way, if we want to replace it, we need to find some medicinal herbs with the same essence gathering effect and cold medicinal properties. After screening them, the Snow Congealing Flower that is at the same level as it is the most appropriate.

“The replacement of the medicinal catalyst is also done with medicinal properties of the same grade.”

“So that’s how it is! Old Wang always asked us to memorize it, but he never told us the reason. I have to give it to Brother Feng who explained it in detail!”

The group of girls once again looked at Feng Yin with burning gazes.

Being stared at like that, Feng Yin rubbed his nose uncomfortably. “You’ll understand if you study it more.”

The next moment, a warm and soft pressure pressed down on Feng Yin’s shoulder. “Brother Feng, look at this question.”

“This is like this…” Feng Yin tried his best to ignore the warmth on his shoulders as he explained seriously.

As Feng Yin explained, the female students were enlightened and started praising him. Faced with these praises, Feng Yin only smiled and did not say anything. Feng Yin was afraid of these girls who could turn into wolves at any time.

Their praises were suddenly interrupted by a contemptuous voice.

“What’s the use of bootlicking him? No matter how good he is in the cultural class, isn’t his martial arts trash? Don’t tell me some people think that they can go to the top three famous schools just because of the cultural class? The strong prey on the weak, do you understand?!”

Everyone turned to look at the person who spoke. The girls even rolled up their sleeves, wanting to beat him up first.

“Ye Chen, do you think that you’re very powerful just because you’ve broken through to a martial artist? Our Beauty Si broke through in her second year of high school.”

“No, no. Could it be that people who rely on medicinal pills to break through these days can be smug?”

“I’m dying of laughter. Just the number of people that have broken through to the Martial Warrior realm in our class could be counted by more than two hands. I wonder what you’re showing off for!”

Si Yun looked at Ye Chen in disdain as well. “Didn’t you break through to become a martial artist because you took drugs? I wonder how you could mock Feng Yin? If you have the ability, don’t fail your cultural class.”

Ye Chen looked at the girls with an ugly expression. He was furious, but he could not flare up. In the end, he could only glare fiercely at Feng Yin and Si Yun before flicking his sleeves and leaving.

Feng Yin frowned slightly when he thought about Ye Chen’s words. Not only was this person despicable, but his words also made sense.

This world was different from Feng Yin’s original world.

In this world where tens of thousands of races invaded, the reason why the human race was not exterminated was because they relied on generations of martial arts experts to protect them. Ever since he came here, he knew one rule. Martial arts were greater than the sky!

Impressive in alchemy? No matter how impressive he was, he could not surpass a martial artist. Those who were truly talented had never relied on drugs to get there. For them, medicinal pills were mainly used to heal injuries and speed up recovery.

Of course, true alchemy masters were still respected.

However, after coming to this world, how could Feng Yin not want to become an expert?

Alchemist? No matter how impressive one was, they would still be a slightly stronger ant if they did not have the ability to protect themselves. Unfortunately, his body was too weak. After sixteen years of hard work, he was still a low-level Martial Apprentice.

The true top students of the Third Middle School had long broken through to the Martial Master Realm.

Leaning back against the chair, Feng Yin closed his eyes helplessly.

At this moment, a cold mechanical voice sounded in Feng Yin’s mind.
