Luo Xiao completely ignored the many people who were gossiping around him and followed behind Overseer Zhu.
They quickly reached the herb fields. A few sparse people were there, weeding the fields, but only a handful could be seen - clearly, it was very unpopular to weed the fields for points.
Luo Xiao could not help but wonder how exactly all the herbs were being harvested and delivered to the herb hall so that students could pick them up in exchange for points.
However, he was soon getting an answer. Overseer Zhu went to one of the fields that was filled to the brim with a herb known as Crimson Starflower.
It was shaped like a star, but the color was like crimson blood. It was another very common herb for alchemists and medicinal cultivators to use in producing medicine, and it had the properties of increasing one's ability to absorb heaven and earth essence for a period of time.
