"What should we do?" Bai Zhenzhen said with a thick nasal tone.
"Make a big deal out of it and let the Ability Academy help you investigate," Lin Yao suggested. She had thought that Bai Zhenzhen valued family ties, and if her father could handle things better, perhaps they could let it go.
However, she never expected Bai Qisheng to handle matters this way, completely disregarding Bai Zhenzhen's feelings.
In that case, as someone who grew up on the battlefield, living day by day without certainty of tomorrow, what was there to hold back? If there was a grudge, it should be settled on the spot; the priority was to feel good and not to suffer in silence for even a second.
To avenge Bai Zhenzhen, Lin Yao was willing to spend a lot. The complete version of the Ability Awakening Potion at the sign-in point was available for unlocking. After looking at the expensive ingredients and complex preparation methods in the potion formula, Lin Yao could only grimace in pain. The cost of this revenge was indeed quite high.
However, for the sake of her teammates, she could only comfort herself that earning money was meant to make her life happier. If spending money on revenge would make her happier, then so be it!
With over two hundred million at her disposal, Lin Yao wasn't worried about this expense. After spending around thirty to forty million, she finally managed to refine an Ability Awakening Potion.
Once it was ready, she quickly sent it to the potion testing center for analysis. After receiving the potion report, Lin Yao handed over the subsequent matters to Liu Qingyun, instructing him to proceed according to plan.
Liu Qingyun followed her plan and directly posted the potion name on the social media account of Guangyao Potion, along with a caption: "Genuine Ability Awakening Potion—anyone with an ability gene can awaken their powers."
Since its establishment, Guangyao Potion had maintained immense popularity among mid-to-low-tier consumers due to its affordable and practical range of potions and powders. Later, after Liu Qingyun arranged for someone to register a social media account and made a brief announcement in the store, they quickly attracted tens of millions of followers.
Of course, this number was negligible compared to the billions of people in the Yunmeng Galaxy. However, each follower was an active user, and their numbers were multiplying daily. In just over ten days since registration, their follower count had already surpassed one hundred million.
Thus, once the information was released, it immediately caused a huge uproar.
With the ability gene, one can awaken their powers. Such an advertisement would make even the most established pharmaceutical companies at the First Research Institute hesitant to make such claims. How could a small shop, one that no one had ever heard of, dare to boast like this?
Many people entered with a mindset to debunk the claims, ready to peel away the layers of the potions. However, what was there to uncover in a shop that had only been established for a little over ten days? The potions inside looked unremarkable, and their effects seemed somewhat lacking, yet the prices were incredibly low, and sales were astonishingly high, with nearly all reviews being positive.
As for why there were so many good reviews, it was simply because the products were genuinely effective and affordable. After all, no one had previously offered such cheap yet practical potions for mid- to low-level ability users. Thanks to these potions, their survival rates when hunting beasts on Beast Star had increased several times over. If they were criticized and the shop stopped providing these potions, they would be forced back into a life where they hesitated to take medicine unless it was a life-or-death situation.
Thus, many buyers not only refrained from taking out their frustrations on customer service but also sweet-talked them instead. The strange phenomenon surrounding this shop left many who came to debunk it dumbfounded. It seemed there was nothing to debunk after all.
Some people entered with skepticism but soon found the potions to be quite good—affordable and generous in quantity—so they ended up buying a bunch to try out. If the effects turned out to be poor, they could always return and lambast the shop later. Little did they expect that trying them would lead them to become loyal customers instead.
As a result of this wave of interest, the shop's sales surged once again. Soon enough, comments on StarNet began to split into two factions: one group trusted the shop and praised the potions enthusiastically; the other group consisted of skeptics who claimed that the potions were exaggerated and questioned how such miraculous products could exist.
The two factions argued fiercely on StarNet. Once a topic sparked debate, its discussion level skyrocketed. As discussions heated up, so did the popularity of the topic.
Five days later, when the buzz reached its peak, the social media account of Light Potions finally posted an update: "We’ve been busy preparing our potion master for special recruitment exams lately and didn’t expect such a huge discussion to arise. We apologize for any inconvenience!" They then uploaded their potion testing certificates, stating that they had official verification from the research institute. "Please stop arguing; we have proof!"
As they looked at the testing certificate, which prominently displayed the words "possessing special ability genes" and "can awaken special abilities," everyone finally believed it. However, this revelation sparked even greater discussions. Many people began to ask: When will the potion be available for sale? What will the price be? What will the sales method be? Do we need to make a reservation?
At this moment, Liu Qingyun, known for her green tea persona, came online and posted: "Recently, we need to help our potion master prepare for the special recruitment exam, so the sale will be postponed."
An old customer from the shop asked: "Which potion master is taking the exam?" Everyone knew that the only registered potion masters in the shop were Lin Yao and Bai Zhenzhen. Moreover, when potions were sold, the names of their developers were also listed.
Liu Qingyun continued her post: "It's Miss Bai Zhenzhen! She applied to the Institute of Special Abilities but somehow had her application withdrawn, which caused her to fail. Now she can only take the new special recruitment exam. She’s been studying hard and training lately."
She even attached several photos of Bai Zhenzhen, drenched in sweat and studying earnestly. Due to the intentional guidance from the potion's social media account, many people began discussing why her application had been withdrawn.
Then someone suggested: "If neither of her parents applied to withdraw her application, they can report it to the Education Bureau." Another person chimed in: "This must be a problem with the admissions office at the Institute of Special Abilities. We should directly contact them and ask for an explanation."
Reporting it would definitely not be considered. The Yunmeng Star System had previously faced issues in education and had always been strict about it. Even if Bai Zhenzhen's stepmother had a bold personality, she wouldn’t dare commit fraud in this matter; she could only withdraw the application under Bai Qisheng's name.
In that case, even if they reported it, they would only find out that Bai Qisheng was the one who withdrew the application, and then it would be closed right there. This outcome was not what they had anticipated.
Thus, Liu Qingyun continued to post: "Reporting would be too troublesome; we could consider contacting the admissions office at the Institute of Special Abilities instead. But I doubt I’ll attract any attention as just one person contacting them."
The enthusiastic netizens waiting for gossip eagerly commented that they could help her contact the admissions office at the Institute of Special Abilities together.
