Tang Yue stopped. The smile on her face widened as she instantly recognized the voice of the fatty walking towards her.
"He He. Did you see how my herb fields were lush and green? Every single herb has grown to perfection."
Marvin's loud voice bood and reverberated in the empty corridor.
"Very admirable indeed, young master Marvin." Another voice sounded, obviously placating the fatty.
"Mmm. This is nothing. When I first tested here, one of the royal consorts competed with and my talent ended up being a hundred tis better than her."
"Aha Ha Ha. She was so embarrassed. You should have seen the look on her face!"
"Master Marcel just couldn't stop praising my skills. Aha Ha Ha. He kept calling a one in a million genius and whatnot. Aha Ha Ha."
Marvin chuckled and continued boasting, as he wobbled forward after finishing his trainee duties.
But just as he turned around the corner
Aaack! A loud yelp escaped his lips and his words got stuck in his throat.
Standing face to face right in front of him was Tang Yue, with her arms crossed and a vivid smirk dancing on her lips.
Talk about the devil and there she was!
"You were talking about ?" She hissed, raising her eyebrows and staring at the chubby elf.
All her troubles began because of this asshole right here! Tang Yue was extrely pissed at Marvin.
If he hadn't kicked her out of the alchemy association, she wouldn't have had to auction any pills.
She could have simply purchased things on a credit basis with her trainee status.
Now one thing led to another and she was roommates with that monster.
Tang Yue conveniently forgot that it was her who first started the fight with Marvin.
"Working hard I see?" She smirked and spoke to him condescendingly.
"Work hard. Work hard. I am sure you can also beco a grandmaster alchemist's personal disciple one day!"
"Shut up. What do you an? Don't you know who my father is?" Marvin gnashed his teeth.
The other elf slowly backed away. Why are these two suddenly fighting without any ignition?
Tang Yue harrumphed loudly and threw him a an derisive look before gracefully walking away.
"Soone relying on his father's coattails for his entire life could only be called pathetic."
As Marvin's eyes subconsciously trailed the snake's shapely behind, her words echoed in the big empty corridor.
The elf's lips twitched. What the heck? What the heck? He trembled in anger.
Arghh! Nothing was going his way! He gnashed his teeth and swallowed his words silently.
He had expelled this damned bitch, but here she was again.
The worst part was now that she was a grand master's direct disciple, he can no longer blacklist her or do anything to her, even if he used the full extent of his influence.
"Fuck!" Marvin cursed loudly and kicked the wall with his foot. He then turned around and stord away in anger.
He couldn't afford to waste ti with the useless snake now.
He had far more important things planned. On this labyrinth trip, he needed to co out on top!
Ignoring the enraged fatty, Tang Yue happily continued humming and headed towards the practice chambers.
So far, her day was going exceptionally well!
She selected one of the practice chambers on the fifth floor, ant exclusively for VIPs and master alchemists, and comfortably settled down.
Herman couldn't exactly see what she was doing inside. So he could only patiently wait outside.
Tang Yue quickly summoned out Little Plum and arranged her cauldron and the set of ingredients she needed.
She then hurriedly started concocting a new batch of Devil Awakening pills with Little Plum's help.
She breathed out a huge sigh of relief as she relaxedly started concocting using the familiar pill formula.
Having been under Xander's constant supervision these past couple of days, it felt so good to be free and unfettered.
Even though there were obvious drawbacks, as Tang Yue started working, she noticed how her techniques had improved just in the span of a few days.
Her movents were more fluid and she almost felt as if she didn't even require Little Plum's help.
She had about 5 sets of ingredients left for the Devil Awakening pill and soon, right before nightfall, she had in her hands five translucent shimring pills.
Tang Yue grinned in satisfaction. Her day's job was finally completed successfully! She had gathered all the resources required for her breakthrough.
She had the Soul Searing pills to improve her soul strength, body tempering pills to improve her body constitution, and lastly, the modified Devil Awakening pills to improve her ntal strength.
Everything was prepared perfectly.
"Heh. These are the normal things that were easily accessible to other elves, but I had to work hard and lie through my teeth just to get these low-grade pills."
Tang Yue chuckled and sighed pensively.
Her journey up to this point was not a simple one, but nevertheless, she was here.
Stepping out of the mortal-tier would be her true beginning.
She could finally now be considered as a true cultivator and a beast hunter.
Tang Yue cald herself and straightened up her ditative posture.
She then resolutely picked up the first Soul Searing pill and popped it into her mouth.
Her erald eyes slowly closed as the snake quietly breathed in and breathed out, consciously circulating mana through her body.
Slowly and steadily she entered a deep ditative trance and the pill was almost entirely dissolved.
In the center of her body, above the lower abdon, an intangible swirl of energy gathered.
It gradually mixed with the mana circulating in her body and slowly strengthened her small weak sliver of soul.
Tang Yue felt a jolt of energy surging within her.
She quickly bit down on her lips and popped in the second Soul Searing pill that she had prepared.
The freshly ingested pill dissolved almost instantly and the strands of soul wisps beca stronger and stronger.
The energy surging within her also beca more and more violent.
