Chapter 39: Chapter 36 Who Can’t Pass the Exam?

Breeder.

A magical profession rumored to be capable of judging how long it’s been since a pet beast last defecated based on the frequency of its calls.

As long as one passed the breeder exam, even if they were only an F-level, just being listed with a regional Breeder Association meant a considerable sum of breeding funds would be credited to their personal account each year.

Truly a way to earn money while lying down.

If there might be one breeder among a hundred beast tamers, then even among ten thousand breeders, you might not find a single A-level breeder.

Qiao Sang’s eyes brightened; this was the first time she encountered an A-level breeder.

“Vice Principal, hello,” Qiao Sang greeted, then turned the head of the Fire-Toothed Dog towards Liu Yao. “Fire-Toothed Dog, come on, say hello to the Vice Principal.”

“Tooth.”

The Fire-Toothed Dog called out politely.

A smile flashed in Liu Yao’s eyes. Before he could speak, Qiao Sang curiously asked, “Vice Principal, do you know how long it’s been since my Fire-Toothed Dog last did a ‘number two’?”

Liu Yao: “…”

“Hahahaha…”

Zheng Pingguo, standing to the side, couldn’t help but laugh out loud, and only quieted down under Liu Yao’s stern gaze.

Recently, a meme circulated online that breeders could tell how long it had been since a pet beast defecated simply by its call frequency.

On a romance interview show, male guest number three was a breeder. With a dull personality and not the most striking appearance among the male guests, his accompanying spectral-type pet beast was particularly unpopular. As a result, he was left out in the cold, with not a single female guest choosing him for eight days.

However, on the ninth day, female guest number two’s Swift-Horned Deer ate male guest number one’s nutritional meal and couldn’t stop crying out in abdominal pain.

While everyone was blaming male guest number one, the typically low-key male guest number three spoke up.

“It’s because it hasn’t relieved itself in over 20 days, and it’s blocked. Feeding it a LaxaFruit should fix it.”

Female guest number two was stunned because her Swift-Horned Deer indeed hadn’t taken care of its physiological needs in 23 days.

After the Swift-Horned Deer ate the LaxaFruit and relieved itself, it was as lively as a dragon.

When female guest number two asked how he knew the exact time, male guest number three responded it was through the frequency of calls.

This answer astonished everyone. Could you really tell by listening to that?

Male guest number three instantly became the most sought-after male guest, with the female guests crowding around him each day to listen to their pet beasts’ calls.

As a typical researcher, Liu Yao didn’t watch romance shows.

He looked at the Fire-Toothed Dog and said helplessly, “I don’t know.”

This old academician Liu Yao didn’t know of the meme, but Zheng Pingguo had watched the romance show with his wife.

It wasn’t about listening to the frequency of calls to figure it out; clearly, male guest number three had let his spectral-type pet beast sneak into the girls’ room to eavesdrop on their conversations.

Qiao Sang had only heard of the meme and hadn’t watched the romance show, so she didn’t know the specifics and thought it was real. Now somewhat disappointed, she didn’t show it and asked another question, “What would be the effect if the Fire-Toothed Dog soaked in those half-month baths?”

Liu Yao explained, “If I’m not mistaken, the Fire-Toothed Dog is now in a state close to a critical point, somewhat like a precursor to skill awakening. It should be related to a speed-related skill. Vitality Grass, Heat Relief Powder, these are substances that activate fire element energy. Soaking for half a month may help it break through this critical point ahead of time.”

Qiao Sang was shocked; in just over ten days, the Fire-Toothed Dog had already learned both the Spark and Shadow Clone skills.

Another one now?! This must be a genius Fire-Toothed Dog!

Excited, Qiao Sang looked at the Fire-Toothed Dog and said, “Come on, Fire-Toothed Dog, quickly thank the Vice Principal.”

Guidance from an A-level breeder was not something just anyone could receive.

“Tooth!”

The Fire-Toothed Dog promptly called out.

Although it didn’t understand what a critical point or Vitality Grass was, or what a precursor meant, saying thanks when its beast tamer instructed was always right.

“Yeer!!!”

Liu Yao opened his mouth, wanting to say something more when suddenly the hysterical wail of the long-eared cat came from beside him.

Qiao Sang was startled.

Turning her head to look, she saw the long-eared cat curled up, its front paws covering its face, tears continuously sliding down its cheeks, looking as if it was in heart-wrenching pain.

The Fire-Toothed Dog also noticed the state of the long-eared cat.

Could it have been crying because of it?!

At that moment, Qiao Sang and the Fire-Toothed Dog had the same thought.

Feeling somewhat guilty, Qiao Sang approached Zheng Yining and asked timidly, “What’s wrong with the long-eared cat?”

Zheng Yining turned to look at her and said with a bitter smile, “It’s a bit obsessive about cleanliness; it woke up and realized that it was being licked by Sheshedi using its tongue, and so it reacted like this.”

Qiao Sang: “…”

She could understand!

The Fire-Toothed Dog breathed a sigh of relief, glad it wasn’t its fault.

“Teacher, with the long-eared cat in this state, it probably can’t continue the fight,” Zheng Yining said to Sun Boyi beside her.

“Are you giving up?” asked Sun Boyi.

“I’m giving up,” answered Zheng Yining.

She was already one of the five special recruitment spots; there was no need for her to continue competing. Moreover, with Qiao Sang present, she wouldn’t be able to take first place, and she didn’t think Qiao Sang would lose to Li Yang.

“All right,” Sun Boyi nodded in agreement, “then the final match will be between Qiao Sang and Li Yang.”

Originally, after Qiao Sang finished competing against Zheng Yining, it was supposed to be Zheng Yining, the loser, competing against Li Yang.

Now that Zheng Yining had directly forfeited, it was Qiao Sang who faced Li Yang.

Li Yang: “…”

He also wanted to forfeit, as his goal of being among the top three for the special recruitment had been achieved. This girl named Qiao Sang and her Fire-Toothed Dog were too fierce, even Lu Liangye was no match for her, and he felt that he couldn’t beat her. But to give up without even fighting… that would be too cowardly…

…

Li Yang’s pet beast was a short-tailed snake, with a poisonous needle tail, poisonous teeth, and venomous blood within its body.

Qiao Sang judged the situation, and a strategy formed in her mind.

The battle began—

The Fire-Toothed Dog immediately split into two, circling the short-tailed snake at about five meters distance, soon creating the illusion of a single shadowy blur.

Amidst the forming shadow, sparks kept firing at the snake.

The short-tailed snake, its focus constantly shifting with the movement of the two Fire-Toothed Dogs, became dizzy and in a moment of slight disorientation was struck by several flames, effectively taken out without even moving.

Li Yang was filled with regret. Had he known the outcome would be this grim, he would have rather found an excuse to forfeit!

This was no novice Beast Tamer’s level of capability; even the high school students already attending a Beast Taming school couldn’t do much better!

Lu Liangye, watching from the side, was quite satisfied. By comparison, his own defeat didn’t seem as bad.

“Qiao Sang wins.”

After announcing the result, Sun Boyi gathered the top five participants together.

“The results of this exam will be posted on the website of Shengshui Middle School in two days. Wait for your middle school examination results to come out, then bring your score report to our school to register. If your middle exam scores do not meet the requirements, then other specially recruited students will take your place in order.”

The examinees who were eliminated in the first round and hadn’t left were excited—did this mean they still had a chance?

But the next second, their hopes deflated. As long as they had passed the special recruitment exam, not just the first place, but any of the following four spots only needed to score 50 points higher than the minimum passing middle school exam score.

With such a low threshold, who couldn’t pass?

Alas…
