Qu Tong nodded and said, "Milan Star is pretty good."
had a long chat with Qu Tong about future plans and went back satisfied.
Qu Tong contacted Mi Lo through Jun Li’s account, hoping the Mi Family would take care of and from now on provide an extra Advanced Mind Stabilizing Potion every month.
Mi Lo gladly agreed. After all, they usually turned a blind eye to the black market’s development, not to mention that had Miss Jun Li’s potions. If possible, they would love to invest a fortune in it.
Even without the potions, with Miss Jun Li’s current identities, she was worth helping.
After a three-day suspension, the school resumed normal classes.
However, a few classes on how to deal with the Insect Clan were added. Normally, these lessons wouldn’t be taught until the second or third year, and freshman only needed a superficial understanding, which wasn’t included in the final exams.
Perhaps due to the recent wormhole incident, freshmen also started to study in depth. The virtual pods introduced several new Insect Clan practice modes, and even the weightage of this in the final exams increased.
Although it was still Zhu Jidan teaching the class, Qu Tong paid serious attention because of the many pictures and videos shown.
From the classification, characteristics, weaknesses of the Insect Clan to the principles of wormholes and the procedures for using antivenom sera, everyone listened carefully.
Especially when watching videos of the War God Your Highness fighting the Insect Clan, it caused the boys and girls in the class to become extremely excited, screaming incessantly.
Fei Wenxing and Cheng Yao, these two fanatic fans, would probably have jumped on their desks and shouted "War God Your Highness is mighty and domineering!" if Zhu Jidan had not been there.
But, really, Si Yuting’s sharp and fierce temperament on the battlefield truly had an effect, even if it was just a profile, it was sky-high handsome, alright?
The decisiveness when giving orders, the ease in controlling the warship, the vastness when using his Special Ability, and the coldness in his eyes with a hint of killing intent made him handsome not just in looks, but also in strength.
That’s why he appealed to both men and women.
Qu Tong took a photo and sent it to Si Yuting with a cat sighing emoji: [Your Highness, you’re so charismatic, I feel so pressured~]
Si Yuting was in a meeting when the message abruptly appeared on the projection screen, prompting sounds of teasing and ambiguous looks from below.
Si Yuting cast a cold glance, and the people below immediately became solemn.
Si Yuting, with his usual composure, swiped away the message and continued the meeting.
After the meeting ended and the projection was turned off, Si Yuting opened the message filled with a bit of teasing and flirtation.
The cat emoji played several times before Si Yuting finally typed four words into the chat box: [Pay attention in class.]
Qu Tong: [...]
Seeing this reply, Si Yuting’s cool and exceptional face seemed to smile for a moment, his aura softening slightly.
Soldiers passing by who saw this all wore expressions as if they had discovered a new continent.

The beginning of the month coincided with the weekend, and netizens had been looking forward to the arrival of midnight, speculating on how many potions Miss Ali’s family would list this time.
Since Elder Yuan was not on Luyi Star, Qu Tong went to a temporarily rented house outside of school.
The potions were prepared in advance, with the store scheduled to list 100 potions and the Palace Commander to transport another 100.
Qu Tong prepared 300 Sleep-Aid Potions, having seen the difficult circumstances of the veterans. With few potions available on the market for the after-effects of Mental Outbursts, and since Sleep-Aid Potions didn’t take much time to prepare, she made some extra on the side.
As soon as Gong Yun received the potions, the payment was almost immediately transferred, along with a personal thank you from the Palace Commander.
Xu An had also been asking about them. Qu Tong sent some to a nearby collection point, telling him to pick them up when he had time.
By 12 o’clock, the store’s 100 potions had sold out in seconds.
Although there weren’t as many as last month, netizens were still very content, after all, it was double the previous amount of 50.
The conflict with the Alchemist Association was always a hot topic online.
Fans yearned for the potion store that had broken the monopoly and survived to thrive even more.
The Alchemist Association’s remaining 100 potions also sold out gradually, and the internal chaos had been barely stabilized after a month’s adjustments.
The fans from both sides were still at odds, slinging mud at each other online, but neither Qu Tong nor the Lan Family had made any moves for the time being.
Qu Tong didn’t have the intention of taking down the Alchemist Association, firstly because she lacked the power, and secondly, it wasn’t necessary.
The supply and demand of high-end potions in the Empire were severely imbalanced. Toppling the Alchemist Association would be a serious loss if their pharmacists refused to join a research institute or another pharmaceutical organization and defected to the neighboring Empire.
She didn’t want to see the repercussions that could harm many people’s lives.
To compensate for these losses, she had to brew potions non-stop for a month, her spiritual power always in deficit.
Her previous actions were merely to dampen their arrogance, to prevent them from acting imperiously again, and incidentally make some money.
The day she would really take such action would probably be when Old Yuan’s Spirit Sea had fully recovered, and he was capable of replicating another Alchemist Association.
The next morning, after dispatching all the potions, Qu Tong returned to school.
Walking on the path covered with ginkgo leaves, Qu Tong suddenly turned around sharply, her gaze falling on the exquisite face of Lan Weiying by the library’s second-floor window.
Qu Tong’s smile was light and indifferent, carrying no aggression, yet it made Lan Weiying’s expression stiffen.

The next day, while Qu Tong was preparing Nutrient Solution with Rong Yueqing in the lab, Fei Wenxing and Cheng Yao came in.
Since the classroom was applied for using points, there weren’t many restrictions.
"Did you hear, Tong?" Fei Wenxing asked dramatically as soon as she entered.
Qu Tong looked at Fei Wenxing speechlessly, just spit it out, what’s there to hear.
Cheng Yao, ever perceptive, related the whole story.
"Lan Weiying improved the formula for the mid-level Spirit Power Potion, and the Alchemist Association announced that this month the price of the mid-level Spirit Power Stabilizing Potion would drop to 180,000 per potion."
Qu Tong was unconcerned, "So, what does that have to do with me?"
Fei Wenxing looked as if facing a great enemy, "Of course it’s related! Aren’t you friends with Miss Jun Li?"
"Look, Miss Ali’s family only has the Advanced Mind Stabilizing Potion; 300,000 per potion is cheap, but most people with lower physical grades don’t need the advanced kind."
"The Alchemist Association must be planning to lure a large number of fans by lowering the price of the mid-level Spirit Power Stabilizing Potion."
"Wouldn’t this put Miss Ali’s family at a disadvantage?"
Listening to Fei Wenxing’s nonsense logic, Qu Tong’s lips twitched, "You just don’t want to see the Lan Family doing well."
Fei Wenxing chuckled, "Heh, as expected of my Tong, you guessed right."
Cheng Yao chimed in from the side, "But seriously, doesn’t Miss Ali’s family plan to tap into the mid-level market at all? There are quite a number of customers in this group."
