This paper was a detailed formula for crafting the Healing potion low grade, he had written on it all the ingredients and their necessary quantities as well as all the steps to succeed in crafting this potion.
Their teacher was already there and he was waiting for everyone to arrive and stand behind a table to introduce himself.
When everyone was there he coughed to catch their attention and said : "Hello everyone, my name is Ian and I will be your alchemy teacher for your first year at the Sun Sect.
As you can see, there is no chair here as you will be spending your time standing behind your cauldron crafting potions.
In the magic bag that was given to you when you registered, you can find vials and magical herbs that you will use to craft your first potions low grade.
The cost of ingredients for crafting potions low grade is not very high, and any potions you complete successfully can be sold back to the warehouse.
Also, be aware that in my classes the books given to you will be useless, I like efficiency and I hate wasting my time.
This is why at the start of each class you will find all the information you need to craft a potion on a paper like the one on your table right now.
In each class you will learn a new potion, and when you will have learned the 15 different potions low grade, for those who have managed to master all of these potions you will be able to move on to the medium grade ones and for the others you will have to work hard to catch up with the rest of your classmates."
He stopped there for a moment to watch their reaction but everyone was quiet and was waiting for him to continue so he added : "The next month there are selections that will be held in Luna City to be able to participate in the annual capital's tournament.
The first year students can't participate to the selections but for those who want to see how it goes you can go to support and observe your seniors.
You will just have to find Douglas for him to give you a special authorization to leave the Sun Sect for this event.
I urge you to not miss this opportunity to observe your seniors, it will be an experience that will prepare you for the next year when you will be able to participate in those selections yourself."
Kevin's eyes had brighten upon hearing this news, it would be great to observe his seniors, and he would probably be able to copy a lot of spells thanks to this event.
Ian was happy to see this news had the effect he wanted, so finally he told them : "Okay, now that the introductions are done we'll start with the simplest and also the most popular potion, the Healing potion low grade.
Take out your cauldron and the ingredients needed and get to work. I will come and see you one by one to give you advice."
Kevin took out from his magic bag his cauldron and the ingredients he had received from uncle Douglas, and after taking only the ones he needed to craft this potion, he immediately put the rest back in his magic bag.
He was like his teacher, he liked everything to be well ordered, it always helped to avoid mistakes.
He then placed the ingredients on the table in the order in which he would have to put them into the cauldron, and then, when everything was ready, he began by emptying the water bottle into his cauldron.
He followed the detailed formula step by step, this teacher had also taken the time to explain on it how to use their Soul force, it was enough to put the hands inside the cauldron and focus on the spiritual energy that was surrounding them and guide it to the water.
When it would start to boil he would have to add 1/3 of a vial of goblin blood to it, he would again have to use the spiritual energy that surrounded them until the mixture turned completely to a bright red.
Then, he would have to add 3 stalks of the magical herb called Vitality and always with the help of his Soul force and the spiritual energy the mixture would have to become a light purple.
There were two more magical herbs to use and after each introduction of a magical herb he had to use 1/3 of a vial of goblin blood.
For one Healing potion low grade he needed, one vial of goblin blood plus 1/3 of another one, 3 stalks of Vitality magical herb, 4 stalks of Energy magical herb, and 2 stalks of Heart magical herbs.
So, when his water was starting to boil he started to do his first potion ever.
Each time he had to wait for the mixture to change of color as it was written on the detailed formula, and when he had finished using his last ingredient, and that the potion had turned a brilliant purple, he heard the familiar sound of the System echoing in his head.
He was curious to see what it was so he opened the holographic screen in front of his eyes and read the messages.
[ Congratulations, you have crafted a Healing potion low grade, you have gained 10 exp points and 1 Soul force point. ]
[ Congratulations, you have just unlocked a new Skill Block, Crafting Potions. ]
Kevin was stunned but delighted, not only would he be able to gain experience points by crafting potions but he had apparently just unlocked something important, so he decided to check his Skills menu right away.
Nothing had changed in his passive and active skills so he continued to descend and just below the 'Mastery of the elements' skill block a new one had appeared.
[ CRAFTING POTIONS ]
Potion Low grade level 1 : 1 / 50
Potion Medium grade : requirement to be activated, reach Potion low grade level 3 and 1 500 Soul Force points.
Potion High grade : requirement to be activated, reach Potion medium grade level 5 and 3 000 Soul Force points.
Potion Legendary grade : ???
Kevin who hadn't forgotten where he was hadn't shown any of his emotions, but he was really pleasantly surprised, his Soul force points would increase quickly with crafting potions, that was awesome.
He checked how much he had used of Soul force point to craft this potion and he was shocked to see that it had taken him 150 points to craft it.
He then remembered the selection criteria to become a mage and that the Soul force had to reach a minimum of 150 … So that criteria was there because it was the minimum to craft a potion.
