Chapter 46: Chapter 43 She Forgot About It
“What made you think of contracting with the Cotton Caterpillar?” Qiao Sang asked.
“I want to evolve it into a Paxue Butterfly; it’s super gorgeous.” Fang Sisi said as she took out her phone to search for a picture of the Paxue Butterfly to show Qiao Sang.
“I know, but to evolve it into a Paxue Butterfly you have to take it to the Beilun Region, right?” Qiao Sang said.
The Beilun Region was not exactly close to their Yuhua Region.
The Cotton Caterpillar currently had five known evolutionary forms, among which the Paxue Butterfly required a specific environment to evolve.
The Beilun Region was that requisite environment.
“No need, I’ve specifically asked a Breeder about it, it only needs to stay in an environment of minus 40 degrees Celsius for an hour. When the time comes, I’ll hire an Ice-Type Pet Beast to create the environment,” Fang Sisi explained.
Seeing that Fang Sisi had thought everything through, Qiao Sang nodded and asked the obligatory post-exam question, “How did you do on the test?”
Fang Sisi shrugged helplessly, “304 points. I can only go to a vocational high school now.”
Before Qiao Sang could think of words of comfort, Fang Sisi countered with a question, “How about you?”
“359 points,” Qiao Sang replied.
“Really?” Fang Sisi’s eyes widened in disbelief.
“I’ll show you the report card when it comes out,” Qiao Sang said with a smile.
Before Fang Sisi had the chance to respond, suddenly there was a stir within the class.
It turned out to be Qin Shou entering with his Laosi.
When Qiao Sang entered with her Fire-Toothed Dog, everyone had opted to observe from a distance, knowing full well that a Fire Attribute Beast was ill-tempered and it wasn’t wise to get too close.
But Laosi’s temperament was a mystery to them, and just knowing that it was a rare foreign Pet Beast was enough to get them excited.
Looking over, Qiao Sang saw Qin Shou being tightly surrounded by a crowd in the classroom. It wasn’t just Laosi that was hidden from view, even Qin Shou himself was blocked off solidly.
Guo Linze, who previously had spoken with such envy, also rushed over, “Shou bro! Shou bro! Let me have a look!”
This commotion lasted for a good ten minutes until the homeroom teacher entered, and everyone finally calmed down and returned to their seats.
Only then did Qiao Sang get a clear view of Laosi.
About 80 centimeters tall, with two bull horns on its head, a pair of light red eyes edged with fin-shaped markings that resembled eyeshadow, it was trembling slightly, huddled in Qin Shou’s arms as if it had just been frightened by everyone.
The homeroom teacher was now distributing the report cards.
“Where’s Xie Jiayi?” Qiao Sang inquired.
Xie Jiayi was Fang Sisi’s desk-mate, who last time had wanted everyone to try for admission to Haomu Beast Tamer High School together.
Fang Sisi glanced at the empty desk in front, then whispered, turning her head, “You weren’t here on the day of the brain awakening, so you don’t know. Xie Jiayi’s brain awakening failed.”
Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment and did not speak. freewёbnoνel.com
Each year, only 73% of the students succeeded in brain awakening during the exams, with 27% unable to awaken. This ratio, when distributed among all the schools, made it unsurprising that there were a few in their class who had not successfully awakened.
Both of Xie Jiayi’s parents were Beast Tamers, so logically, her chances of awakening should have been high. The failure must have been a heavy blow to her.
But reality is sometimes so capricious; like Dai Shushu, as a child of ordinary people, being able to awaken on her own was a success, while Xie Jiayi, the child of Beast Tamers, failed the brain awakening.
Soon the homeroom teacher called for Qiao Sang.
When she went up to get her report card, she tugged and found that it did not come free.
Qiao Sang looked up, puzzled, at the homeroom teacher.
He was all smiles, like a blooming chrysanthemum, his wig trembling with his laughter. Then he positioned her to face the students and announced loudly, “Let me tell you some news, our classmate Qiao Sang, through diligent study and hard work, did not disappoint! She has been accepted to Shengshui Middle School!”
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole class was in shock.
Diligent study? Hard work?
The same Qiao Sang who usually slept in class, failed exams, and had lately been absent from school?
They had never expected anything from Qiao Sang before.
And Shengshui Middle School?
