Beast Taming: Starting From Zero - Chapter 31

Chapter 31 He was pretending

Most of the students of Shengshui Middle School live on campus. Some of them live off campus through the south gate of the school, while outsiders like Qiao Sang all go through the north gate.

The north gate was closed, and the guards in the security room had not yet come to work.

Qiao Sang checked the time for the nth time.

8:52.

There were only 28 minutes left before the gathering time for the special recruitment exam of Shengshui Middle School at 9:20.

There was no one passing by the huge north gate except Qiao Sang and Huoya Dog.

Qiao Sang couldn’t help but yawn sleepily.

If I had known, I would have lay down for a while and not come so early…

8:58.

Eight black spots appeared on the horizon, from far to near, and soon landed at the north gate, raising dust on the ground.

Qiao Sang tried to open his sleepy eyes.

They were eight black-billed finches, each about 2 meters in size.

Its beak was as black as its feathers, and it had a pair of beautiful black curly tails, which made it easy to identify.

Six men and two women came down from the eight black-billed finches one after another. They looked about the same age as her.

“Hello, a total of 8,000 Alliance coins.” The man on the back of one of the black-billed finches said.

“We quoted a group purchase price.” A girl with a bob haircut and a red headband said anxiously.

The man looked at his companion next to him to ask if it was true.

The companion nodded and said, “Yes, we quoted a group purchase price.”

“That is 7,222 Alliance coins.” The man said.

“Can you give us a better discount? We can call you again when we go back later.” The tallest of the six boys asked.

“Pay this time first.” The man did not answer directly.

Since it came to this, he naturally paid first.

After paying, the tallest boy asked again, “How much discount can I get if I call you later?”

“No.” The man replied.

“What?” The tallest boy was confused.

“No discount.” The man answered him again.

Everyone: “…”

…

While this group of people were chatting and trading, Qiao Sang had already entered Shengshui Middle School with the Fire Fang Dog.

At 9 o’clock, the security uncle came out of the school and opened the door.

It was like going to work on time…

Following the route given on the official website of Shengshui Middle School, Qiao Sang arrived at the No. 3 venue.

There were only four teachers on the venue, and compared with the Sixth Beast Taming Middle School in Hangzhou and Hong Kong, they didn’t seem to take this special recruitment competition seriously.

“Teacher, I’m here to take the exam.” Qiao Sang walked over and said.

“ID card.” Sun Boyi was concise. Qiao Sang

took out his ID card and handed it over.

“Qiao Sang, from Wencheng Junior High School?” Sun Boyi lowered his head to confirm the ID card and information .

“Yes.” Qiao Sang replied.

Sun Boyi ticked Qiao Sang’s name on the paper and said, “Go sit next to him first, and start when everyone is gathered.” After saying that, he returned the ID card.

When Qiao Sang went to the side, Qin Wen said with interest: “This girl actually contracted a fire-toothed dog.”

“People who awaken themselves are pretentious. Aren’t there many pets that are difficult to control as their first pet? Didn’t Lu You, who was recommended to our school this time, also contract a small dragon?” Zheng Guoping disagreed.

Qin Wen rolled her eyes secretly.

How can they be the same?

The temperament of the little zilong is much better than that of the fire dog. It

‘s just that because it is a dragon-type pet, the price is too expensive and not many people can contract it. One relies on courage to contract a fire dog, and the other relies on money to contract a little zilong. How can they be the same?

However, Zheng Guoping is not easy to talk to. He will explode at the slightest provocation. She was too lazy to argue with him about this.

After a few minutes, several people who had just gotten off the black-billed sparrow outside the north gate walked into the venue and lined up to verify their identities.

The girl with a bob haircut and a headband who verified her identity first looked around, then came to sit next to Qiao Sang, and said familiarly: “You are also taking the exam, why didn’t you come with us?”

She glanced at the Fire Fang Dog beside her without leaving a trace.

A strong rival.

Qiao Sang was confused, “Why should I come with you? Do I know you?”

The girl with the bob haircut was surprised, “Didn’t you see the message in the group?”

Qiao Sang was even more confused, “What group? What message?”

“It’s the group that all special recruits are required to join under the official website of Shengshui Middle School.” The girl with the bob haircut explained, “Didn’t we agree in the group to meet at the intersection of Oujie Street?”

Qiao Sang was silent for a while and said, “I didn’t join…”

The girl with the bob haircut: “…”

“That’s not right. There are 9 special recruits in the group. If it’s not you, who else is left?” The girl with the bob haircut asked in confusion.

At the beginning, I don’t know who said in the group that the masters are the last to appear, and then one by one they said in the group that they would be the last to arrive.

Li Yang, the tallest boy among the boys, later stood up and suggested that everyone should just get together and arrive together when the exam is about to start.

Everyone in the group is self-awakened.

There are 5 special recruitment quotas for Shengshui Middle School this time. It is possible that they will be from the same school in the future. There is no objection to getting to know each other in advance and building good relationships.

So everyone decided on Li Yang’s proposal.

Now there is only 1 minute left until 9:20, and with the girl in front of him, there are exactly 9 people. Everyone should be here.

Is there 10 people for this special recruitment?

The girl with the bob haircut was about to say something when a shocking cry suddenly came from behind.

Turning around, I saw a four-legged flying pet with a long and thin tail. Most of its body is blue, only its wings are gray-black, and its whole body is covered with thick shells. It appeared in the sky 3 or 4 meters above the ground.

It is a Jiejia Eagle, a high-level pet.

Zheng Guoping frowned as he looked at the Jiejia Eagle. Their Shengshui Middle School does not allow foreign pets to enter. Just as he was about to step forward to stop it, he saw a figure jumping off the back of the Jiejia Eagle.

“Dad, you go first.” The boy who jumped down waved his hand and said.

The man riding on the Jiejia Eagle nodded, and then the Jiejia Eagle flew away.

“Teacher, am I not late?” The boy walked up to the teachers and asked.

“Lu Liangye, right? You are the only one left. You timed it very well. If you were two seconds late, you would be too late.” Zheng Guoping mocked.

Lu Liangye smiled and said nothing, his eyes unconsciously glancing at the other candidates.

Except Qiao Sang, everyone else understood what he meant.

How is it? The masters are the last to appear!

Everyone: “…”

Damn! He was pretending!

Sun Boyi clapped his hands and gathered everyone together, then said, “Now that everyone is here, let’s start the exam.”

“Everyone knows the rules of the exam, I’ll say it again.”

“Ten people, two in a group, the five winners take a break first, and the other five losers decide on a winner, plus the original five winners, a total of six people.”

“These six people are divided into three groups, the winners get the top three, and the three losers will compete to eliminate one, and the last five remaining will be qualified for special recruitment by our Shengshui Middle School.”

Got it.

To put it bluntly, it depends on luck.

If you run into a strong opponent when you start to play in groups of two, you can only consider yourself unlucky.

After all, four of the five losers will be eliminated at the beginning.

“For the sake of fairness, we draw lots to decide, there are two numbers 1-5 here, and those who draw the same will automatically form a group.” Qin Wen took out a wooden box and said.

Soon everyone had drawn their lots.

“Let’s start with number 1, who drew number 1?” Qin Wen asked.

“It’s me.” Lu Liangye raised his eyebrows and showed the note in his hand.

“Who is the other No. 1?” Qin Wen continued to ask.

At this time, a white hand was raised.

“Me.”

It was Qiao Sang.
