Xia Zhiqing was depressed. From the beginning, she already knew that with her own strength, it was impossible to enter the finals.

  When thinking about it, she could not help but be grateful that her first opponent was Lu Jingqi.

  If she could not deal with Lu Jingqi before the second round, then in the second round, she would be able to help her teammates cause problems.

  They were there as a team, and all she wished for was to see her team go further.

  However, she was too weak, wasting an excellent opportunity.

  Baili Hongzhuang patted Xia Zhiqing’s shoulder, “You already did great, don’t overthink.”


  Xia Zhiqing nodded and smiled, but within her smile was some disappointment.

  “Zhiqing, I will help you with acupuncture, maybe it can help you increase your restoration rate.” Baili Hongzhuang said slowly.

  By using acupuncture she was able to stimulate the meridians and cells in the body, allowing for the body to absorb the Qi with the fastest speed.

  As a result, it could perhaps help Xia Zhiqing recover.

  Hearing this, Xia Zhiqing could not help but ask, “Can it really work?”


  Baili Hongzhuang nodded slightly while smiling, “I said so, so naturally it will work. Don’t forget who I am.”


  Xia Zhiqing’s eyes shone brightly. Baili Hongzhuang was a famous medicinal doctor!

  “Hongzhuang you are the hope of our college, the one we hope will enter the finals. Applying acupuncture will consume your mental energy, are you sure about this?” Zhan Yunfeng was worried. She naturally hoped that they could restore Xia Zhiqing’s strength, but if it affected Baili Hongzhuang then it was not a good thing.

  Xia Zhiqing also quickly agreed, “Yunfeng is correct. Hongzhuang, you shouldn’t help me, you are the most important.”


  It was already a shame that she had failed, but if she dragged down Baili Hongzhuang, then she would become the sinner of the academy.

  Baili Hongzhuang waved her hand dismissively, “Don’t worry. It is just stimulating the meridians, not removing poison or healing someone. It is not complicated and won’t require much energy.”


  “Hongzhuang are you sure?” Xia Hongzhuang asked uncertaintly.

  Baili Hongzhuang nodded and smile. “Of course it’s true. Why would I lie to you?”


  Xia Zhiqing couldn’t help but look at Zhan Yunfeng to hear her opinion, but she also nodded her head. “Since Hongzhuang says its nothing, then let us try it.”


  Next, Baili Hongzhuang directly took out her silver needles and her energy surged as she placed the silver needles into the acupoints of Xia Zhiqing.

  This was the first time that Xia Zhiqing was experiencing acupuncture. She had thought that it would be painful to have such long needles placed in her body, but after Baili Hongzhuang placed the first needle, she did not feel the slightest pain. Instead, she felt a sense of soreness where the needle was placed, but it was very comfortable.

  Baili Hongzhuang directly took out a white porcelain bottle and gave it to Xia Zhiqing. She said, “There are some returning Qi pills here. You should swallow two now.”


  If they relied on Xia Zhiqing’s own ability to restore the strength within this one hour it’d be impossible. As such it was definitely important to use these returning Qi pills.

  Xia Zhiqing looked at the bottle of pills in her hands and her heart was bursting with emotions.

  Even knowing that Baili Hongzhuang was an alchemist, she couldn’t help but marvel over her actions. This was completely like eating pills as if they were candy.
