But Su Ye, who had done nothing to earn it, received a grand invitation from Cold Rain Academy, only to refuse as if it were a major hassle.
Hearing Su Ye's refusal felt like a sharp slap in the face.
Su Ye's refusal didn't just stun Dean Jin; even Dean Bai, seated on the high platform, and the other teachers from Qinghuang Academy were left dumbfounded.
'Why on earth did this kid refuse?'
'We were counting on her to bring glory to the academy this time!'
Qinghuang Academy had always been on the losing end of the Medicine-Refining competition against Cold Rain Academy.
It wasn't just the students who were fed up with Cold Rain's arrogant attitude; even the teachers were nursing pent-up frustration.
A while back, they had heard that Su Ye had miraculously cured the Third Prince's leg ailment. Not only that, but even the Prince had bestowed immense praise upon her.
