Feeling Weak???

Shuisheng Ge's awkward appearance drew a few laughs. When Li Yao took the microphone, his bewildered look sparked even louder laughter. Someone with poor nerves would have blushed furiously and become so nervous they could barely speak.

But Yao had a big heart. Even now, he remained poised and completely unruffled.

He rose slowly, utterly unfazed by the crowd.

He was good-looking anyway, so what was there to fear? Taking the chance to organize his thoughts, he realized this was the Q&A session. Holding the microphone, he looked at Li Shishi on the stage. She was looking at him too, smiling faintly, her warm eyes full of encouragement. But Li Yao wasn't nervous in the slightest. If anything, he felt like showing off. "Senior, you're really beautiful."

The alumni laughed again. Some even whistled and shouted, "Confession!"

The scene was getting a little out of control.

Fortunately, Li Shishi was excellent at handling a crowd. Before the noise could reach its peak, she smiled and said, "I already knew that. Is that all you wanted to say?"

Li Yao said, "Of course not. Senior, my name is Li Yao. I'm a student from Class Two, Year Three, Business School. Could I visit you sometime soon?"

Li Shishi looked a little surprised, then smiled. "Mm, no problem."

Li Yao said, "Thank you, Senior."

After saying that, Li Yao sat down and handed the microphone back. The instructor who received it cast a deeply resentful glance at Li Yao and Zhao Shuisheng—why did you pass the microphone someone gave you to somebody else?! Zhao Shuisheng felt embarrassed and scratched the back of his head with a shy smile. The Great Hall grew even noisier, with countless boys and girls clamoring to visit their senior, but unfortunately, none of them had been the one to make the request.

The school leaders quickly brought the scene under control and announced the end of the opening speech.

As the event ended, Li Shishi said to the assistant beside her, "Make a note of that junior named Li Yao. If he really comes to visit me, remember to notify me."

"Understood, President Li."

Whether university life was exciting or not really depended on what a person pursued.

Some people made their four university years truly fulfilling. When it was time to leave, they reluctantly said they couldn't bear to part with it, then went on to earn a master's degree, even a doctorate. Others drifted through every day in a daze. When the four years were over, university got out of bed, patted you on the butt, and said: It's over. Time for you to go.

And then you really left.

Who knew whether you had gone to university, or university had gone through you?

Thus, the same circumstances led to different lives.

On the way back to the dorm, Cao Rui and Chen Tao still hadn't calmed down. "Li Yao, what made you think of visiting Senior? That was incredible! Can you take us with you? We'll cover your breakfasts for the next two months!"

As their good roommate and good brother, Li Yao casually refused them.

The request he had made in the Great Hall hadn't been a spur-of-the-moment idea. Li Shishi worked in the beauty product industry, mainly supplying places like beauty salons. In this peaceful era where everyone pursued beauty to an almost insane degree, the industry's profits were enormous, yet there weren't many beauty and skincare products with immediate results.

But Li Yao possessed "production technology data" from another world.

What did that mean? Li Yao knew he was going to get rich.

Li Shishi's appearance had provided him with a fast route to monetize it—Li Yao felt this was also an opportunity he was giving Li Shishi.

For the next two days, he stayed in the dorm and caught up on the classes he had missed. The other three dormmates found Li Yao's current learning ability unbelievable, but it was always a good thing when their roommate became awesome, so they were genuinely happy for him—copying homework had become so much more convenient!

On the fourth day, the Miniature Pig Li Yao had ordered arrived, and he left the dorm to return to his single apartment.

He injected the prepared poison into the Miniature Pig... Soon, it let out a miserable squeal and collapsed to the floor, all four legs flailing wildly. Li Yao hurriedly held it down and poured the Cleansing Potion into its mouth. Before long, a fine layer of sweat appeared all over its body. The sweat was murky and reddish, but the Miniature Pig was clearly much better and no longer in such agony.

"It works!"

This proved that the Cleansing Potion worked on carbon-based life-forms. But what about humans? Lin Xiaowei had said that beginner Cleansing Potions could eliminate all poison that reacted with organic life-forms. Intermediate Cleansing Potions could remove poison on the level of energy elements, while advanced Cleansing Potions could even cleanse poison at the level of rules—such as the curse of a High-Rank Mage, Devouring Life. For life on Earth, a beginner Cleansing Potion was already comparable to a "universal antidote."

The specific principle seemed to involve "restoration factors" extracted from certain herbs. They could restore and repair a life-form based on its traits, somewhat like reinstalling an Android system and restoring factory settings.

To further test the potion's effects, Li Yao deliberately went to a nearby apiary and had bees sting him...

Damn it, bees didn't play fair. They stung him several times!

The pain made Li Yao's face turn green on the spot.

He went somewhere deserted and drank the Cleansing Potion. Fifteen minutes later, the stung areas on his arm gradually grew hot, and sweat poured from his body. After that came a wave of coolness. Ten or so minutes later, the redness and swelling on his arm disappeared, leaving only a faint red mark.

It worked on the human body too!

Li Yao licked his lips. For some reason, a few rather bold ideas came to mind...

But after thinking about it, he decided to forget it.

He was already a nationally certified middle-aged person born in the '90s. He needed to learn how to take care of his health and strive to live to a hundred.

The success of the Cleansing Potion gave Li Yao tremendous confidence. Over the following week, he devoted himself to concocting the "Vitality Potion."

After several failures, he successfully brewed the Vitality Potion as well!

The Vitality Potion mainly worked by stimulating the body's own immune and repair systems, speeding up the recovery of injuries. Mixed with Magic Dust and refined through an Alchemy Array, the Vitality Potion might have been nothing more than ordinary "red medicine" for the creatures of that world.

But for creatures of Earth—

—this was practically a bug-level miraculous healing medicine!

The Vitality Potion was tested on the Miniature Pig as well.

Miniature Pig: (｀Д)!! Who am I? Where am I? What did I do wrong to deserve this?!

Li Yao cut open the Miniature Pig, then poured the Vitality Potion into it. After a little over half a day, the wound had scabbed over and healed. A day later, the scab fell away, leaving only a pale pink scar. For the next three days, the Miniature Pig was incredibly hyper, charging around its cage all day with the air of someone about to slay a dragon.

Or perhaps it wanted to fight Li Yao.

In any case, the effect was damn impressive, and Li Yao was very satisfied.

The formula said that drinking more of this potion regularly was good for the body too.

This potion had originally been called the "Beginner Healing Potion." It was only after some alchemical genius improved it that it became the "Vitality Potion." The Vitality Potion, refined with several nourishing medicinal ingredients, could strengthen the body, maintain the vitality of bodily cells, and even slightly help improve mental power if consumed regularly.

It had already become one of the Magic Association's everyday drinks.

So after testing it on the Miniature Pig, Li Yao drank a vial himself!

After the spicy, choking taste, a hot stream flowed down his throat and into his esophagus. Then a burning sensation spread from his stomach throughout his body, leaving all his limbs weak... Li Yao touched his forehead. He was breaking out in cold sweat!

Li Yao panicked a little:

—Why was I suddenly so weak???

Everyone, don't stay up too late or eat too much. Love... of course, love me with all your heart~ It should switch to contract status in the next couple of days, so you'll be able to send me tips. Isn't that a little exciting??
