"Suffering, so much suffering."
In the workshop, Ji Jue, covered in grime, opened his eyes and crawled up from the floor, wailing, "So painful, I'm in so much pain."
To be honest, he had been prepared for hardship but never imagined it would be this severe.
A mere week felt like an eternity in hell.
Professor Ye didn't subscribe to any cramming boot camp; quite the contrary, she valued a balance between work and rest. Aside from having Ji Jue continue the exercises he had been practicing previously and keep using up the junk and scraps in the storehouse, she only added two fixed classes to his daily routine.
An hour-long basic lecture delved into the specifics of the four main elements, their subcategories, and various fields of alchemy, ranging from Superior to blessings to the application of runes under different conditions.
Pure theory.
Ji Jue soaked it up eagerly.
Then came... the catastrophic practical classes.
