"This thing is only effective for those with lower strength. My magical level is already at the intermediate level, so this secret medicine is useless to me." Ophelia opened the lid of the secret medicine and handed it to Bexia.

"Drink it, don't waste it!"

Seeing the elf secret medicine handed over by Ophelia, Bexia hesitated for a moment and looked up at her.

"Drink it!"

"Ophelia, why are you so kind to me? If we talk about the debt of saving you, what you've given me is already enough!"

"Why are you saying such distant words? You're my knight, do you know what it means to be a knight?" Ophelia glanced up at the vast blue sky and said, "A knight is my companion. If the day comes when I become a queen, you will be my royal guardian knight. If you don't become stronger, it would be a disgrace to me!"

"And I truly see you as a little brother..."

"Is that so?!" Bexia smiled, not because of being a royal guardian knight, but because of what Ophelia said later. He didn't have any concept of honor, but Ophelia's genuine emotions touched him!

"These past few days, I had someone investigate your background, but we couldn't find any clues yet. Don't worry, focus on your studies at the academy for now. I'll notify you immediately once there's any news."

"Drink the secret medicine quickly, my arms are getting tired!" Ophelia complained, pretending to move her arms as if they were really sore.

"Gurgle!"

Without hesitation, Bexia directly drank the elf secret medicine. It had a slightly sweet taste, and Ophelia watched him finish drinking it, feeling a slight envy in her heart.

She had lied. The elf secret medicine actually had an effect on her as well. Moreover, it was because of her breakthrough to the intermediate level of magical power that her father rewarded her with this bottle of elf secret medicine, which was several times more effective than the secret medicines available in the market, with a price tag of over ten thousand gold coins.

Actually, Ophelia had hesitated for a long time before finally deciding to give it to Bexia after struggling in her heart multiple times.

"Ophelia, you don't have to worry about my background anymore. I have remembered some things."

"Oh! You remembered?"

"Yes! I remembered some things." Of course, Bexia didn't actually remember anything. He just found out some things about himself from Lady Cloud, so there was no need to trouble Ophelia anymore.

"So, Ophelia, you don't have to be concerned."

"Is that so? Don't lie to me!"

"I'm not lying to you. I remembered that I actually have a sister, and her name is Lady Cloud. This ribbon is something she gave me!" Bexia showed the red ribbon on his wrist, indicating that he was telling the truth.

"Where is she? Where does your sister live?"

"I haven't remembered that yet, but I have a feeling that I will remember soon."

"Well, since you say that, then I won't worry about it." Ophelia realized that Bexia didn't want her to be bothered anymore, so she said accordingly. However, she knew that she couldn't really stop herself from investigating a little, but she would take care of Bexia's feelings.

"Let's not talk about this. Now that you've drunk the secret medicine, you have to focus on training your magical power for the next year. If you slack off, I won't pay any attention to you!"

"I know!" Bexia nodded heavily. He felt guilty for receiving so many favors from Ophelia, but he couldn't do much for her in return. It was something he deeply regretted.

"And for the upcoming monthly trial, I want you to achieve one of the top two positions!" Ophelia suddenly said.

"This... is a bit..." Bexia became hesitant.

"Of course there will be some difficulties, otherwise it wouldn't be challenging!" Ophelia stood up, smiling and said, "Before the trial, I will personally train you. You should be mentally prepared!"

"There's no need for that!" Seeing Ophelia's dangerous smile, Bexia suddenly became a bit scared, feeling a sense of uneasiness in his heart.

"Don't forget that you promised me when you enrolled, that you must be in the top twelve during the promotion exam. Now that you have drunk my secret medicine, my expectations of you have increased, so you have to figure it out yourself!""......I got it!"

For the next three weeks, Bexia entered a "special training" period with Ophelia. During this time, aside from normal morning classes, the rest of her time was dominated by Ophelia. Every time Carter saw Bexia staggering back, he was scared to death, afraid that she would faint the next second.

And Bexia was exhausted. She would immediately fall asleep when she reached her room, her body fatigued. Every day, she would be dragged to run circles around the capital city, Asman, wearing a specially made heavy iron armor. Even daily battles required her to wear it, and she could only take it off after training was over.

It should be noted that the iron armor weighed fifty kilograms. The first time Bexia put it on, she almost couldn't finish running around the capital city. However, with the passage of time, she gradually adapted.

Ophelia's actions were actually carefully considered. The daily fatigue was not a good thing for Bexia, but Long Momo had told her that Bexia had used a drop of Dragon's Force Potion. This was the main reason why Ophelia dared to burden Bexia with such intense training.

After the Dragon's Force Potion entered the body, it needed continuous training to fully activate it. Otherwise, relying solely on absorption would take a long time. But this method was not the most effective. Only a certain amount of training could activate the Dragon's Force Potion and bring out its most valuable effects.

However, what Ophelia didn't know was that the Dragon's Force Potion in Bexia's body was completely used to activate the "Touch of Judgment." There was no more power in his body. The ability to withstand such a high burden of exercise was entirely due to Bexia's own willpower, as well as the most important factor:

The other divine artifact on his body, the "Blessing of Life," was exerting its effects. After each excessive fatigue, it would replenish the missing strength in his body with life force. If this divine artifact was fully activated, as long as there was no immediate fatal injury, even if his heart was pierced, the "Blessing of Life" could instantly recover him. This ability belonged to the power of the world, the power of the gods, far beyond what a regular person could reach!

It was under this high-intensity training that Bexia's physical fitness was greatly enhanced. In less than a month, the training effect was better than six months of training for others. Even the previously unable to be performed Blade Dance of War could be adapted to.
