Chapter 251: Chapter 239 I Participate
“I don’t have anything special I want to participate in,” Qiao Sang casually asked, “How about you? Which event do you want to join?”
Although Jin Feifan wasn’t a poor student, as one of the standout specially recruited students in the class, she was sure to be a part of the athletics meeting.
“I want to try the shuttlecock kicking,” Jin Feifan said, somewhat embarrassed.
“That’s an easy one; it’s perfect since your pet beast is a Ball Reed. I feel like you’ve got this in the bag,” Qiao Sang laughed.
In the shuttlecock kicking event for pet beasts, they couldn’t use their skills, but they could use their heads, feet, and other body parts to keep the shuttlecock in the air, except for their upper limbs. For Grass-type pet beasts, their Vine Whip is considered a part of their body, so it is allowed for use under the rules.
Generally speaking, Grass-type pet beasts participating in this event have a great chance of winning.
The first period was for the homeroom teacher.
When it was time for class, Li Yi walked in, accompanied by a Gravity Monkey holding a box of school uniforms.
The school uniforms were handed out one by one.
Looking at the school uniform in hand, Qiao Sang couldn’t help but feel impressed inwardly; if there’s one thing you can say about the Beastmaster Society, it’s that they’re really efficient.
If this had been his previous life, new students would report their sizes at the beginning of the school year, and normally it would take up to half a month before the uniforms were distributed, but now it had taken less than five days.
During the lesson, Li Yi sped up the content delivery, explaining at twice the normal speed, and everyone listened without effort.
Except for Qiao Sang…
Qiao Sang was frantically taking notes, wishing he could grow two more hands.
Although his memory had greatly improved, in a class full of whiz kids, he had no choice but to work hard!
Once the lesson content was covered, there was still a good chunk of time left before the end of the period.
Li Yi clapped his hands and said, “We will use the remaining time to continue yesterday’s topic. The school’s sports festival will be held on September 29. This will also be the first one you all participate in.”
“Although our class is acknowledged as the top in terms of academic performance, I hope our students can develop comprehensively in moral, intellectual, physical, and aesthetic education, and achieve commendable results in the sports festival as well. I believe our class has the absolute capability to do so!”
Throughout his speech, the homeroom teacher didn’t look askance, and while it seemed he was addressing the whole class, anyone with a clear eye could tell that these polite words, just repeated from yesterday, were clearly directed at Qiao Sang.
Qiao Sang showed no reaction; he was still bent over, reviewing his freshly written notes to reinforce the content.
Li Yi cast a sidelong glance and continued, “To call on everyone to work hard, I make a solemn promise today that as long as we come in first, from then on, the PE teacher will absolutely never be sick!”
The classroom erupted in laughter.
Jin Feifan muttered under her breath, “Do all homeroom teachers love to say this kind of thing? My middle school teacher said the same, and yet the PE teacher was so often ill and on leave, that I barely ever saw him in my entire ninth grade.”
Qiao Sang raised his head and asked, “Did your class win first place in the sports festival back then?”
Jin Feifan paused, “We got fourth.”
“Then you can’t really blame your middle school teacher,” Qiao Sang chuckled.
Jin Feifan: “…” freewebnσvel.cøm
Soon, the selection process got underway.
“First event, the 400-meter hurdles sprint; does anyone want to participate?” Li Yi looked around and asked.
The hurdles sprint was a sport that Beast Tamers and their pet beasts completed together, with the pet beast wearing a sensory device on their head, and the Beast Tamer at starting point wearing an electronic visual device.
There wouldn’t be actual hurdles placed on the track, but they would show up in the Beast Tamer’s electronic visual device.
As the pet beast approached where the hurdle was located, the Beast Tamer had to jump on the spot. The sensory device would make the pet beast pick up on their Beast Tamer’s movement.
At that moment, the pet beast had to jump since the hurdle would rise suddenly from the ground.
The hurdles sprint tested the pet beast’s speed, reaction time, and the level of understanding and trust with their Beast Tamer, which wasn’t an easy feat for first-year students who had just become Beast Tamers.
Despite this, many students eagerly raised their hands to sign up.
They had all just become Beast Tamers, full of high spirits, especially being students from the prominent Beast Taming High School’s elite class.
