Regret, So Much Regret!

The homeroom teacher beamed as she looked at Li Yu, saying, "Good, good, very good! Your foundation is rock solid, and there are no issues with your body at all!"

She had just wanted to check if Li Yu had used some strange method to break through, but after the examination, she realized she had been overthinking it.

This gave her a more intuitive understanding of Li Yu's talent—he was an absolute monster!

Furthermore, she discovered that beyond his martial arts, Li Yu had also broken through to the fourth rank in magic. Who would believe such a thing if they heard it?

Had she not seen it with her own eyes and confirmed through her examination that Li Yu's body was in perfect condition, Zhang Li would never have believed he could break through so quickly.

She offered Li Yu a few words of encouragement and told him to wait to the side; once everyone had arrived, the group would head directly to the Dungeon.

"This is truly absurd. How did you reach the fourth rank so fast?" Asuna followed Li Yu to the side to wait, looking at him in disbelief.

This leveling speed was simply heaven-defying. It felt like Li Yu hadn't even done anything, so why had he broken through so quickly?

Usually, Li Yu attended classes with them, and for the past two days, he had just been busy concocting potions. How did he break through in the blink of an eye?

"Perhaps my talent is just better," Li Yu said with a smile at Asuna. There was no need to over-explain such things; even if someone tried to investigate, they wouldn't find anything.

After all, Li Yu had truly broken through on his own without doing anything strange. No matter how one investigated, it would always come down to Li Yu being exceptionally gifted.

Asuna didn't know what to say when she heard Li Yu put it that way; she could only feel intense envy. The other students in the class couldn't help but crowd around as well.

In this class, everyone was now at the third rank, whether in magic or martial arts. Over the past two days, many had followed Li Yu's advice.

If they couldn't break through in martial arts, they would just break through in magic—as long as they reached the third rank, it was enough. Because of this, everyone in the class had now broken through.

However, compared to Li Yu, everyone else's breakthrough paled in comparison. The students were still deeply shocked by Li Yu's cheat-like growth.

Because of this, everyone was now surrounding Li Yu, asking how he had done it. To this, Li Yu gave the same answer: don't ask, because if you do, the answer is talent!

When Kato Megumi and Yukino Yukinoshita arrived at school and saw so many people surrounding Li Yu, they were a bit confused.

Once they understood the situation, the looks they gave Li Yu were filled with shock. This guy had broken through? Was this some kind of joke?

"Can you believe it? I can't either!" Asuna walked over to them, looking at Li Yu surrounded by his classmates with a face full of envy.

"Monster!" Yukino Yukinoshita looked at Li Yu and slowly spat out the word. It was truly an enviable talent; at this rate, it wouldn't be long before Li Yu left them completely in the dust!

"He really is worthy of being Li Yu!" Kato Megumi was also incredibly impressed. She even suspected that Li Yu's rapid breakthrough might be related to his learning talent.

After all, Li Yu was constantly absorbing knowledge. With the help of various techniques, perhaps Li Yu's rapid breakthrough wasn't so unacceptable?

No one knew exactly how many martial arts techniques and sword styles Li Yu had learned, but the fact that he could easily break through to the fourth rank was the best proof.

"It's not something we can envy. Anyway, forget that—try this stuff. Li Yu made it yesterday." People were different; Asuna and the others couldn't help but feel envious, but they couldn't dwell on it.

She didn't overthink the issue and instead took out the two bags of Red Potion and Blue Potion that Li Yu had given her to share with them.

Hearing Asuna's words, Yukino Yukinoshita and Kato Megumi were a bit confused. When they saw the Red Potion and Blue Potion she pulled out, their expressions turned incredibly strange.

"This... it wouldn't happen to be one of those strange-flavored potions Li Yu mentioned, would it?" Kato Megumi asked Asuna, sounding a bit uncertain.

If it were ordinary potions, Asuna wouldn't have needed to bring them out, as everyone already had some. But since she had, it was likely what Li Yu had talked about that day...

Could they really drink this? The same question surfaced in the minds of Kato Megumi and Yukino Yukinoshita. It was too abstract—had Li Yu really made it?

"The Red Potion is strawberry-flavored, and the Blue Potion is blueberry-flavored. Li Yu seems to have changed the formula. The cost and effects are the same, but the flavor has changed," Asuna truthfully explained the situation regarding the two potions.

"Really?" Upon hearing Asuna's explanation, Yukino Yukinoshita's eyes lit up, and she was simultaneously shocked. He actually pulled it off? Just how terrifying was that guy Li Yu!

"Really, I've tried it. If you don't believe me, try it yourselves." As she spoke, she twisted off the cap, signaling for the two to come forward and taste it.

Seeing this, Kato Megumi and Yukino Yukinoshita didn't hesitate and began to sample them. The flavor really had changed—it was actually strawberry-flavored?

Furthermore, the effects were exactly the same as the ones they had purchased before, and neither of them felt any discomfort. In other words, this medicine was perfectly safe!

"This is incredible, the flavor is even better!" After tasting the Red Potion, Yukino Yukinoshita's eyes lit up. The taste was truly excellent.

"Right? I think the flavor is great too." Asuna nodded, fully agreeing with Yukino Yukinoshita. How could it not be great?

"It's a pity we still have so many of the ones we bought earlier. Otherwise, I'd want to replace them all with this," Kato Megumi felt a little depressed.

She regretted it too, just like Asuna. If she had known, she should have listened to Li Yu yesterday, because Li Yu really could produce potions with different flavors.

Why hadn't she believed him? If she had just waited a little longer, she probably could have bought these. After tasting this, she didn't want to drink the original, medicinal-tasting Red Potion at all!

The new Red Potion Li Yu made was just like fruit juice; the flavor was quite wonderful and carried a special, refreshing fragrance that the standard version lacked.

If one could drink delicious potions, why drink the ones that tasted like raw herbs? If this stuff appeared on the market, it would probably sell out instantly!

As the three of them regretted buying their supplies too early, the rest of the class soon arrived. Once everyone was registered, Zhang Li clapped her hands and said, "Quiet!"

With a single word, the scene fell silent. Seeing this, Zhang Li immediately spoke, "Everyone in the class has arrived, and everyone has broken through to the third rank. I am very pleased with this!"

As she said this, a smile couldn't help but bloom on her face. This Special Class had truly lived up to her expectations; everyone in the class had broken through to the third rank.

This was much faster than the martial arts and magic classes in the rest of the school. Most of those students were still at the second rank, and very few had even touched the threshold of the third.
