Chapter 93: News on Healing Type Beast

Edited by RED

Qian Wei City Number Two Secondary School office…

Their principal, Zhang Qiang, looked around in the well-lit, spacious office. Seeing every Year Three high school homeroom teacher had arrived, he nodded to them and said directly, “The reason why I gathered all of you here this time is because I have something important to announce.”

The homeroom teachers focused their attention after hearing this, shifting their gazes towards Zhang Qiang in the main seat, anticipating the important matter he was about to announce.

Everyone had already guessed that this matter must be related to the high school seniors. Otherwise, why would he only gather them, their homeroom teachers?

“This matter is related to the high school seniors.”

The teachers nodded. -As expected!-

“I received notification from the higher-ups that the national entrance exam this year would be less focused on cultural results. Instead, all kinds of subjects related to subdued beasts and beast world herbs would occupy a higher weightage.”

As per his habit, Principal Zhang Qiang would pause for a short while after every sentence.

The dozen or so homeroom teachers immediately started whispering softly to each other.

This news signified that the traditional top students’ popularity would be knocked down a peg. On the other hand, the talented students who became a beastmaster earlier than their peers and those who were knowledgeable about all kinds of exotic beasts and herbs would become the new darlings of every university.

Of course, if a student had everything: a top scholar, a talented beastmaster, and had knowledge of exotic beasts and herbs, it went without saying that every single university in Hua Xia region would be vying for them!

Seeing the homeroom teachers discussing this matter endlessly, Zhang Qiang tapped on the table with his right index finger, indicating that he was not done speaking, and they should discuss things later.

The meeting room fell silent once more. Zhang Qiang nodded in satisfaction before continuing, “Also, every university in Hua Xia that focuses on nurturing beastmasters has come together and made a proposal. They are suggesting doing away with exams on cultural subjects for all students who are Tier Two beastmasters or higher, allowing these talented students to choose their schools freely. Their proposal has already gone through.

“Of course, Tier Two and above beastmasters have the right to choose their schools, and the schools have similar rights to choose their students. When the time comes, there will be a specialized test for the registered students. The details will be sent out in a document later. I won’t go through them one by one.”

A commotion broke out among the homeroom teachers. This was the biggest change implemented for the national exam since the dawn of the new age!

Students who were Tier Two beastmasters or higher, directly exempted from examination on cultural subjects. To students who weren’t talented in the traditional sense, this was simply a piece of great news!

-Mmm, I have to inform the students about this good news after this meeting!-

The homeroom teachers broke out into another hushed discussion.

The sound of a finger tapping on the table rang out once more. The homeroom teachers could only halt their discussions again, complaining silently, -Boss, can’t you just say everything in one go?-

Zhang Qiang continued unhurriedly, “The last point is… the Bei Du University made changes to the recruitment method on their beast card cultivator major this year. Unlike the past years whereby it solely relied on written test results, they will also arrange for every examinee to undergo a practical exam after passing the written test and enroll those who succeed.”

After revealing this information, the homeroom teachers immediately exploded into discussion again.

Not only would they take into account their written test results, there would also be a practical exam! This had undoubtedly doubled the difficulty of the exam! It seemed like the examinees who were thinking of enrolling into Bei Du University’s beast card cultivator major were in for a huge headache!

One had to understand that to become a beast card cultivator, it wasn’t enough to simply have the knowledge. It also depended on whether your practical skills were passable. It was useless no matter how rich your knowledge was if you weren’t able to act according to what was needed during practical operations.

Every single subdued beast had different circumstances. As such, the required ingredients would naturally differ. There was no fixed formula for the cultivating fluids. You had to be daydreaming if you wanted to become a beast card cultivator just by memorizing the associated knowledge.

Thus, there was a problem.

Unless you came from a rich family, where would ordinary students find enough money to experiment on different cultivating fluid formulas?

And that was ignoring the high-end apparatus required when producing the cultivating fluid, something ordinary families couldn’t afford. The fees would send families into poverty even if they were only renting them.

In a certain sense, the Bei Du University’s recruitment method for beast card cultivators this year was much fairer compared to the past, as most examinees had never had any practical experience. Everyone was placed on the same starting line; it all depended on their comprehension skills in the end to have a greater chance of passing the test.

After the meeting was adjourned, every homeroom teacher rushed to their respective classes in a hurry, relaying the information to their students to mentally prepare them.

Naturally, the students had varying reactions to the news.

It couldn’t be helped that the traditional book-smart students were lamenting about being born during the wrong time. Meanwhile, the students who were already Tier Two beastmasters and had rather bad academic results were celebrating. As for those who were thinking about enrolling into the beast card cultivator major, well, these were considered rare specimens in a small city like Qian Wei City. Let’s not bother what they were feeling.

After exiting the classroom, Han Sheqing suddenly remembered Zhang Che, and opened up his personal terminal to contact him. However, it turned out that the latter wasn’t within service range.

-This kid is really working hard. He’s not hunting exotic beasts in the beast world every day, is he?- After a brief consideration, Han Sheqing decided to leave a message for Zhang Che, explaining the matter about Tier Two beastmasters being exempted from examination for enrolling into university, before suggesting in the end, {Zhang Che, I’d still recommend that you attend university. It’s better to widen your network and broaden your horizons to find a healing-type beast instead of fighting by yourself. You never know, perhaps you might find someone with a healing-type beast in some other city or school?}

As for the matter about Zhang Che deferring his studies?

This was no problem at all. It was only deferment, not withdrawal from school. All he needed to do was return to school and go through some administration process. He’d still be able to attend the national exam this year. He didn’t have to take the written test for cultural subjects anyway, what was there to worry about?

—

It wasn’t just Han Sheqing. After school ended, Huang Tielan thought of this, as well, and similarly left a message for Zhang Che, asking him to think about this.

When she got back home, Huang Tielan noticed her mother, Zhong Yuqing looking at her with a strange smile. She couldn’t help but ask, “Mom, what’s with you? You’re have a strange smile.”

Zhong Yuqing blinked a few times, before talking about a different topic. “Darling, how’s that Zhang Che doing recently? Is he still hunting exotic beasts in the beast world?”

“Yes, what about it?” Huang Tielan answered cautiously, not knowing why her mother would suddenly ask about that.

“The matter about you asking your dad to help look out for healing-type subdued beasts, there’s some news. Professor Sun Qilong from Bei Du University’s beast card cultivator major succeeded in raising a five-star subdued beast to gold-quality recently, and Awakened a skill which happened to be healing-type.”

“Ah! Mom, really?” Huang Tielan’s voice went an octave higher, her face filling with anticipation.
