Actually, this matter is not difficult to resolve.

Take a sick leave and find an opportunity to retake the exam next time.

Yu Danqing shared the same idea.

That's all for now.

Yu Danqing paused, then finally couldn't help but ask, "Have you been busy for so long? Your Highness... you should be almost done by now, right?"

Ye Xingxue paused for a moment, then said, "I guess so."

Previously, Ling Luo's seclusion usually lasted about half a month.

The longest duration was four months.

This time, Ling Luo has been in seclusion for more than four months. Even if she didn't participate in this theoretical exam, she should be finishing her seclusion soon, right?

Hearing Ye Xingxue's uncertain tone, Yu Danqing didn't know what to say.

but.

Although Ye Xingxue's tone wasn't entirely certain, his answer this time was different from all his previous ones, giving Yu Danqing a glimmer of hope. She said, "That's good."

The education bureau keeps pressuring her, and she's getting annoyed.

If Ling Luo doesn't finish her work in a few more months, she'll feel completely exhausted.

Yu Danqing did not go with the Beast Star assessment this time.

After finishing her conversation with Ye Xingxue and ending the call, she noticed that it was almost time to leave, but then she paused for a moment.

She noticed four people walking towards her office.

Three of them had slightly lower martial arts skills than her, but the third person had higher martial arts skills than her, which she could not detect.

She had just opened the office door when she saw who it was. She rubbed her temples and stopped in her tracks: "Director Guan, what brings you here?"

The person whose martial prowess she couldn't detect was none other than Guan Li, the director of the Education Bureau.

As for the other three, they are also key figures in the Education Bureau—in short, they all have impressive backgrounds.

Guan Li pushed up his glasses and said calmly, "I was bored so I came out for a walk. I saw that the scenery here was nice, so I came in to take a look. I didn't expect to run into Principal Yu. What a coincidence."

Yu Danqing: "..."

The Education Bureau is more than 200 kilometers away from the Hellow Military Academy.

You can walk 200 kilometers?

Yu Danqing took a deep breath and said, "Since Director Guan is here, why don't you come in, rest your feet, and have some tea?"

Guan Li nodded lightly, entered Yu Danqing's office and sat down. Yu Danqing closed the door, poured tea for the staff, and then sat down opposite Guan Li, saying, "It's getting late. If you're free, Director Guan, would you like to have dinner together later?"

"Then I'll have to trouble Principal Yu."

Yu Danqing looked at them and asked, "How's the previous research going? Any progress?"

The research she mentioned was a detailed study conducted by some pharmacists sent by Guan Li and his team before the school students set off for the Beast Star assessment. The study focused on Ling Luo's classification of human attributes.

Guan Li shook his head: "No."

Yu Danqing herself is also a pharmacist.

She also studied the students' physical examination reports based on Ling Luo's knowledge of human physical attributes, but she couldn't see any difference between students with the same or different attributes.

She couldn't tell from the medical examination report, so she personally examined a small number of students.

The result was still a complete mystery.

Therefore, she was not surprised at all by Guan Li's answer.

Having said that, Guan Li got straight to the point: "Is there any news from the master's side?"

Yu Danqing paused for a moment: "We'll probably get a reply in a while."

Upon hearing this, the usually composed Guan Li's eyes lit up behind his glasses: "Really?!"

Recalling Ye Xingxue's answer, Yu Danqing nodded: "If there are no unforeseen circumstances, yes."

"That's great!" The men who came with Guan Li also stood up excitedly: "We've prepared the detailed contract, and we're available to discuss it anytime!"

Yu Danqing: "...I know."

"It wasn't a wasted trip after all." Guan Li smiled and asked, "Is it difficult to make the Five Elements Beads? How long does it take to make a batch? If it takes a long time, we should urge the military to speed things up."

Yu Danqing: "..."

They've already made all the arrangements, what else could she say?

Speaking of the military headquarters, here's what happened.

Originally, the Five Elements Beads should have been returned after Wang Honghai's garrison completed the testing.

But those above demanded that it be implemented first in the military.

Therefore, the Five Elements Pearl has been sent to several other planets for testing by the garrisons there. It will only be returned to the main planet and back to her after all the garrisons have completed their tests.

Those planets are far apart, and the number of Five Elements Pearls is small. It will probably take at least four or five months for the Five Elements Pearls to be sent back to the main planet.

Therefore, the military probably won't respond so quickly.

Rather than waiting for news from the military, it's better to hope that Ling Luo finishes her work quickly.
