Chapter 11: Shengshui High School
Qiao Sang felt heartbroken and regretful.
"Is this why you suddenly attacked the TV?" she asked, raising the head of her Fire Tooth Dog, ready to give it a good scolding.
*Click.* The door opened.
Qiao Sang slowly turned her head and forced a stiff smile. "Mom, you're back."
"Co co!" The chubby pigeon immediately came over and affectionately rubbed against its mother.
Her mother looked at the sorry state of the living room in silence for a few seconds, then turned to Qiao Sang and kindly asked, "Is there something you want to say?"
Qiao Sang immediately held up the Fire Tooth Dog to shield herself. "It was all its doing!"
The Fire Tooth Dog blinked its innocent big eyes.
After a brief standoff between Her mother and the Fire Tooth Dog, she said, "Deduct it from your pocket money."
Qiao Sang looked at her with resentment.
"Do you have any objections?" Her mother asked.
"No," Qiao Sang replied with a clear conscience.
Her monthly allowance was only 1,000 Union Coins, and the TV alone cost over 4,000 Union Coins. Losing four months of pocket money was definitely something she objected to.
"I went to your school today," Her mother said, walking over and sitting on a nearby single sofa, with the Fat Family Dove following her.
"Is there something wrong?" Qiao Sang asked.
Fang Sisi had mentioned this matter in the messages she sent.
Her mother didn't answer that question but instead asked, "Do you have a High School in mind that you want to attend?"
Qiao Sang was momentarily stunned, thinking for a moment before saying, "Hanggang Sixth Imperial Beast High School."
The Sixth Imperial Beast High School was not ranked sixth in Hanggang City; it was just named that way. In terms of strength, it was considered an average school among all the Imperial Beast High Schools in Hanggang City.
Choosing this school was purely because it was close to home.
With Qiao Sang's previous grades, she definitely wouldn't be able to get into this school. However, now that she had awakened her powers independently, she could give it a try through special admission.
Her mother took out an enrollment brochure from her bag and placed it in front of Qiao Sang. "I think you can try applying for this school."
Qiao Sang looked at the enrollment brochure and couldn't help but twitch her eye.
"Hanggang Shengshui High School?"
Her mother didn't change her expression and said, "Yes."
"Mom, do you think too highly of me?" Qiao Sang said helplessly.
She put the enrollment brochure she held in her hand on the coffee table.
Shengshui High School, ranked first among all the Imperial Beast High Schools in Hanggang City and second in the entire Zhehai Province, had a college enrollment rate of 98.73%. It was one of the top-tier schools.
Students who could enter this school were all top-notch students in Hanggang City.
If Qiao Sang had half a year before the High School entrance exam, she would be willing
to work hard. However, now that there were only 19 days left until the exam, it was completely impossible for her to pass.
In that case, why waste time and make an effort to apply for the special admission of this school?
Qiao Sang didn't understand. Even though she had awakened her powers independently, did her mother have unrealistic expectations for her?
Her mother looked at Qiao Sang calmly and said, "You can apply, and you don't have to pass the exam. As long as you do your best, I won't deduct your pocket money."
Qiao Sang picked up the enrollment brochure from the coffee table and said, "What's the point of pocket money or no pocket money? I just want to give it a try."
Her mother's lips twitched. "Then go and register online now."
"Alright." Qiao Sang picked up her Fire Tooth Dog and left.
Ye Xiangting watched her daughter's back with a smile in her eyes. However, when she thought about what had happened at school in the afternoon, her expression darkened.
...
Qiao Sang went to her room, turned on her computer, and applied for Hanggang Sixth Imperial Beast High School and Shengshui High School separately.
The two schools had a big difference in rankings, and their special admission requirements were also different.
Qiao Sang mainly looked at the section about self-awakening special admissions.
The requirements for Hanggang Sixth Imperial Beast High School were relatively simple. After sending proof of self-awakening online, the admission score would be reduced based on the degree of awakening of the awakened domain.
For example, if the domain development was at 5%, it would reduce the minimum score for the Hanggang High School entrance exam by 100 points, and if it was at 6%, it would reduce it by 200 points.
For example, last year, the minimum score line for the Hangang City High School entrance exam was 332. If Qiao Sang can achieve 6% brain domain development, she would only need to score 132 points in the High School entrance exam to qualify for special admission.
With Qiao Sang's current achievements, this wasn't a problem.
As for Shengshui High School, it was a bit more troublesome. Only five self-awakened special admissions were accepted each year. After the application was approved, they would have to participate in a pet beast battle at a specified time and place.
For students who ranked from second to fifth in the special admissions, they needed to score 50 points higher than the minimum score for the Hanggang High School entrance exam to be accepted.
The conditions for the first place were slightly relaxed; they only needed to achieve the minimum score for Hanggang City.
Although self-awakening individuals are rare, when you consider all of Zhehai Province, there are still around 40 to 50 of them every year.
Excluding those who are directly recommended or receive special admissions from other schools, Shengshui High School still has over a dozen self-awakening students applying every year. After all, it is the top-ranked school in Hanggang City, and it carries a certain prestige
Qiao Sang checked and found that the special admission exam for Shengshui High School is scheduled for June 10th, one week before the High School entrance exam, which is 12 days away.
Pet Beast battle, huh?
Qiao Sang pondered for a moment. Those participating in special admissions are all self-awakening individuals from this year, and their beast companions are also in the early stages. She had contracted with a Fire-type beast companion, so she wasn't without advantages.
Thinking of the Fire Tooth Dog, Qiao Sang felt a little strange. Subsequently, her consciousness entered the Beast Manual.
【Name: Fire Tooth Dog】
【Attribute: Fire】
【Level: Novice (115/1000) +】
【Skills: Bite (Novice 73/100) +, Charge (Proficient 135/500) +, Fire Fang (Novice 2/100) +, Ember (Novice 3/100)】
【Points: 0】
Qiao Sang's consciousness exited, and she looked at the Fire Tooth Dog with a peculiar expression.
You got a Fire Fang skill just from watching TV?!
Is it worth it to spend 4,000 Union Coins for a skill?
Well, it actually seems quite worthwhile...
The potential of a pet beast is limited, and you can't judge the talent of a pet beast just by its appearance. Pets with good talent, whether it's for skills or awakening again, progress much faster than ordinary ones.
If you're unlucky and contract a pet with mediocre talent, it might take a year just to learn a single skill.
Qiao Sang looked at the Fire Tooth Dog, lost in thought.
Her Fire Tooth Dog had good talent. Should she take it to watch a horror movie next time?
The Fire Tooth Dog shivered involuntarily. Why did it suddenly feel a bit cold?
...
...
At 10:12 PM.
Late at night, all was quiet, and silence filled the surroundings.
Qiao Sang lay on her bed, her hands supporting her head. Her eyes gleamed with anticipation. After tossing and turning for a while, she sat up and looked at her alert Fire Tooth Dog beside her.
The Fire Tooth Dog had been stared at for a long time and looked puzzled.
"tooth?"
Qiao Sang whispered softly, "I don't blame you for this morning. Do you want to watch TV again?"
The Fire Tooth Dog remembered what happened this morning and knew it had made a mistake. The things inside the TV wouldn't come out at all.
"Woof."
It nodded to indicate that it wanted to watch.
Qiao Sang picked up her phone from the bedside table and searched for the most popular horror movie of the moment, putting it in front of the Fire Tooth Dog.
The Fire Tooth Dog watched attentively.
In a forest shrouded in dense fog, a girl in white was walking. Through the girl's perspective, a black figure could be faintly seen hovering in the air...
Qiao Sang didn't watch the movie with it. Instead, her right hand was placed on the phone as she observed the Fire Tooth Dog's reaction, ready to withdraw at any moment.
"Is this why you suddenly attacked the TV?" she asked, raising the head of her Fire Tooth Dog, ready to give it a good scolding.
*Click.* The door opened.
Qiao Sang slowly turned her head and forced a stiff smile. "Mom, you're back."
