The members of that team could have shown consideration for their youngest and weakest team member, and so, they could have decided to give him more badges.

As he looked at Shen Jue’s short limbs, he immediately rejected the first possibility.

Only the second possibility was left, but Ling Yue found it rare to have encountered such a scene.

The test would determine the cla.s.ses that the students would be allocated for the rest of the year. The content taught to the students would vary between those different cla.s.ses. Only students from the violet cla.s.s could learn the highest level of knowledge available to them, which was also the most powerful ones. No student would hand over such an opportunity with ease.

However, Qi Xia’s team had overturned that kind of stereotype entirely.

Ling Yue felt even more gratified as he looked at that team of five students. The dean, Ouyang Huanyu, had organized the test so that they could train students from various divisions to cooperate with each other. Shen Yanxiao’s team of five had completed that objective with perfection.

The delighted Ling Yue was utterly unaware that the reason Shen Yanxiao had more badges than the others was that she was even more shameless than them!

“You have all performed very well this time. Now that the test is over, I will be conducting an investigation with regards to the contents of your test.” Ling Yue put his satisfaction aside and looked at them with a straight face.

“According to the testimonials of other students, you had managed to produce the antidote on the second day, is that correct?” Ling Yue’s keen eyes swept across the faces of those five students. Na Ken had mentioned that when he went to retrieve the students, a warlock had used curses to control Lin Ke and swindled three bottles of antidote from him.

There were only three members in Shen Yanxiao’s team who had drunk the suppression potion at the beginning of the test. Coincidentally, that number matched the quant.i.ty of the stolen bottles of antidotes.

According to their investigation, Shen Yanxiao’s team was the first to produce the antidote. Even though their team had two herbalist students, both Tang Nazhi and Shen Yanxiao were only first-year students who had yet to undergo formal education. It was practically impossible for them to produce the potion in such a short amount of time.

He had also asked the teachers from the Herbalist Division. Among their students, only Shangguan Xiao could have produced the antidote in two days.

If they could find out who stole the three bottles of antidote, then they would also find out the ident.i.ty of that warlock.

At that point, Shen Yanxiao’s team was the prime suspect.

“That’s right.” As the team leader, Qi Xia answered Ling Yue’s question.

When she heard Ling Yue’s question, Shen Yanxiao immediately understood his purpose. However, she did not know that the incident with the curses had been exposed. She simply thought that Ling Yue had only wanted to track down the thief who stole the bottles of antidote.

Ling Yue nodded, and his gaze landed on Tang Nazhi and Shen Yanxiao.

“Then who produced this antidote?” Ling Yue questioned.

Shen Yanxiao’s heart jumped. She secretly scolded herself for not being thorough in her actions and allowed others to grab at her weak spot. She did not expect to be the first to obtain the antidote. After she stole the antidote, she did not expect that Qi Xia and the others would immediately consume it. She had feared that others would discover any abnormalities with that situation. How could she have expected to coincidentally pick up her four wretched teammates as they wandered around aimlessly in the Obscure Forest? When she saw their miserable state, Shen Yanxiao felt an indescribable irritation deep down in her heart.
