In this spacious venue, Nasi and several apprentices were sitting around a huge round table, on which were placed various rare medicinal herbs and ancient scrolls. The breeze blew gently, bringing a hint of the fragrance of plants and trees, which was refreshing.

"Nas, can you tell us about the newly discovered herb?" Amy, a young-looking apprentice, asked the question impatiently with curiosity gleaming in her eyes.

Nas smiled slightly, adjusted her thoughts, and turned her gaze to Amy. "Of course, Amy. This herb is called 'Morning Dew Grass', and it is said to have a magical effect of restoring vitality." Her voice was gentle and firm, making people listen involuntarily.

"How to use it?" Another apprentice, named Luke, asked with a somewhat skeptical tone. "I heard that only true alchemists can master its secrets."

"In fact, morning dew grass is not complicated." Nasi tapped the table lightly with her fingertips, as if searching for words. "We can combine it with several basic potions to make a potion that can improve the body's recovery ability. But we also need to be careful. If it is not handled properly, the effect may be counterproductive."

At this time, Gerlin next to him slowly walked over with a smile of approval on his face, "Nas, your explanation is very clear, and the apprentices can understand it. I believe they will benefit a lot from your guidance."

"Thank you, Gerlin." Nas nodded slightly, feeling warm in her heart. Since joining the academy, she has been studying hard, hoping to become an excellent alchemist like Gerlin.

"Then let's do some practical exercises." Gelling's voice echoed like a bell in the training ground. "This is not only a test of theoretical knowledge, but also an improvement of practical ability."

The apprentices were instantly excited and stood up. Nas also came back to her senses and quickly sorted out her thoughts, "Everyone, please remember that safety always comes first. Everyone must follow the operating steps carefully, especially the most critical proportions."

"I'll get the herbs!" Amy immediately ran to the corner of the table and excitedly mixed various colorful herbs.

Luke began to organize the equipment. "I found the right glass crucible. We can start."

Just as they were busy, the apprentices' excitement was interrupted by a low voice. "Humph, how can I allow you to waste time here?" The voice came from an apprentice named Sally, and there was a hint of disdain in her eyes.

Nas turned around, and the smile on her face froze. "Sally, there you go again. We were just practicing."

Sally sneered, "Practice? You don't understand the true meaning of alchemy. You are just losing yourself."

Nas took a step forward, her expression firm. "We all have our own way of learning, Sally. You don't have to tell others what to do."

"Humph, it's because of people like you that our college is in such a slump." Sally's tone was full of provocation.

"That's enough, Sally," Gerling interrupted, frowning slightly. "Nas is a key figure in the academy, and her experience in this area is worth learning from."

"The core figure?" Sally smiled sarcastically. "In my opinion, she is just taking advantage of other people's efforts." After that, she turned and left.

The atmosphere around them suddenly became solemn. Amy and Luke both lowered their heads, seeming to feel unfair for Nas but not knowing how to start.

"Don't worry, Nash," Amy said softly, "Sally is just jealous."

The crowded training ground gradually returned to silence, and Nas felt a complex emotion. "I don't care what she thinks." She forced herself to smile, "Let's continue practicing."

In the following time, the apprentices, under the guidance of Nasi, carefully prepared the potion. The scent of morning dew grass gradually filled the air, and the faint grass fragrance was mixed with a hint of sweetness, which was intoxicating.

"Okay, now let's start mixing." Nasi raised the bottle in her hand and carefully instructed each step. "Remember, the fusion of herbs needs to be gradual. Patience is the key."

The apprentices worked together and constantly exchanged their observations and experiences, making the scene lively and efficient. Amy said excitedly: "I feel that this aura is getting stronger and stronger, and it seems that the effect is about to come out!"

"That's great, Amy!" Nas' eyes sparkled with approval. "Keep working hard, we're not far from success."

However, at this moment, Sally returned to the training ground. She stared at Nas and the apprentices with a sneer on her face. "You kids don't know what true alchemy is. Vines and potions can't be combined at all."

"How can you say that?" Luke retorted immediately, clenching his hands. "We are working hard, it has nothing to do with you!"

Sally said in a low, disdainful voice: "Hard work is admirable, but without real talent, it's all in vain."

Nas looked at her calmly, "Sally, do you think that people with high talents don't need to work hard? A true alchemist needs to keep learning and practicing."

"That's right!" Amy also agreed with courage, "We will let you see the results of our hard work!"

Sally smiled coldly, "Just wait and see." After she said that, she turned and left, leaving the tense atmosphere lingering on the training ground.

"Don't let her affect your mood." Nasi tried to ease the atmosphere and gently encouraged everyone, "We have a new potion to prepare. The important thing is to persevere."

The apprentices' eyes gradually became firm, and they began to concentrate on the preparation. Soon, a sweet fragrance filled the laboratory. When night fell, the apprentices on the training ground had smiles of excitement and fatigue on their faces.
