Chapter 692 Freshman Assessment
The area where the new beast taming students are located.
The three of them got to know each other better through casual chatting.
"Did you see that?" Lailali pointed at one of the nine big guys on the stage and said, "That's the dean of our Beast Taming Academy."
Qiao Sang looked in the direction she pointed and saw an old man with half-white hair, a wrinkled face, but a rosy complexion.
"I heard that Gilbert Heron is 483 years old." Langdon, the brown-haired boy, said in a low voice.
483 years old? Qiao Sang was really shocked: "He's so old?"
She looked in astonishment at the big shot in the distance who was older than her grandfather's grandfather's grandfather.
To be honest, the textbooks mentioned that when a beastmaster reaches a certain level, the rewards they receive can have an effect on their lifespan, allowing them to live much longer than ordinary people, but this was the first time she had seen someone who lived that long in real life.
Rounding it off, it’s almost five centuries…
"The older you get, the stronger you become." Langdon did not hide his desire: "I must live that long in the future."
Lailali disagrees: "Living long doesn't necessarily mean you're strong. Take Peter Newerwna, for example. He was only a C-rank beastmaster, but with the help of Shenghengmomu's ability, he managed to live to the age of 329."
“That was just one example,” Langdon countered.
What the hell? A C-level beastmaster lived to be 329 years old? What kind of pet is Sheng Heng Momu that is so awesome?! Qiao Sang's pupils shrank slightly, and she wanted to ask, but in order not to expose her nature as a "bad student" in front of her new friends, she silently took out her mobile phone and started searching for "Sheng Heng Momu".
Soon, the page jumped and relevant information appeared.
[Shenghengmomu, a pet beast in the legend of Chaoxiu Star, can increase the lifespan of all things, but the price is still unknown. It is said that it will only wake up once every 500 years. ]
There are actually pets that can increase the lifespan of all things... Qiao Sang felt that he had gained some new knowledge.
As she was checking the room, the speech began on the stage.
However, Qiao Sang's ears automatically filtered out the thoughts. When she put her phone back into her pocket, she only heard the person on the stage say, "This assessment will give corresponding points based on the results. You may not be clear about the importance of points, so I will explain it to you here."
"You can use your points to buy anything that can be redeemed in school. You also need points to attend many courses involving professional knowledge, borrow books, and live in a good dormitory. All of these require points."
"As long as you contribute enough points, teachers and students from any department can serve you. S-level trainers, prop masters, pharmacists, spirit pattern masters, mechanics, appraisers, spirit plant masters... our school has no shortage of these talents."
"That is to say, as long as you have points, you can get everything you want here!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire hall was suddenly filled with a tidal wave of noise.
Everyone has heard about points in the past few days. We know they are important, but we didn’t know they were so important! “Ah! A senior student took me to the dormitory and toured the campus, and asked me to give her 2 points. Am I being cheated?”
"Oh my god! A senior borrowed 10 credits from me. Can I not get them back?"
"Fuck, I saw a domineering peacock on the day I reported. When it saw me, it shook its body and dropped a feather. Then a senior student appeared and insisted that I plucked the feather and asked me to pay 3 points. Now that I think about it, was I scammed?!"
The freshmen began to talk about their experiences in the past few days, and condemned the seniors for using various means to cheat them of their points.
Qiao Sang suddenly remembered something, took out his mobile phone and checked the email sent by Yulianton University.
Soon it stopped on one of the lines of words.
【From now on, all new students will be given 100 points. 】
At this time, Qiao Sang heard Laila Li say in a regretful tone:
"If I had known that points were so important, I wouldn't have let that senior teleport me to the reporting office on the day of reporting!"
Qiao Sang asked: "The one with 1 point?"
Laila Li looked over instantly: "You teleported too?"
Qiao Sang shook his head: "No."
Laila Li: "..."
Langdon looked around and said in a surprised tone:
"I didn't expect so many people didn't know the role of points in Yulianton University. I thought everyone had learned about the situation here before coming to Yulianton University."
Qiao Sang glanced at him and said, "There is no news from within Yulianton University on the Internet."
For well-known top universities, there is basically no information about their internal management on the Internet. What is available is only the school's ranking and environment, teacher background information, outstanding alumni, and some research and achievements.
Langdon was silent for a moment, then he coughed and said, "Yulianton University is mainly to let everyone understand that here, you still have to rely on yourself. Among the students who go to Yulianton University, there are some students from ordinary families. If everyone needs points, then to a large extent, the opportunities are equal."
Qiao Sang understood a little.
During this period, she had an unlimited credit card and knew that some top resources and talents could not be obtained with money alone. Points here could weaken the influence of large families and in a sense achieve equal starting points.
The teacher on the stage continued, "Each college's assessment is independent. You don't need to communicate with each other. Now, please pick up the smart glasses in front of you to confirm your own assessment content."
Smart glasses? Qiao Sang looked forward and found that a pair of transparent smart glasses appeared out of thin air where there was nothing before.
Use space movement to carry out collective transmission?
How much proficiency does it take to do this? I don't know if Xiaobao Xun can do it... Qiao Sang thought as he put on the smart glasses in front of him.
I saw a virtual panel frozen in mid-air.
【Please enter your student ID and password】
Qiao Sang raised his hand and clicked.
Soon, new content appeared.
[Name: Qiao Sang]
[Major: Beast Taming Department]
【Points: 0】
[Mission: Defeat any beastmaster in the Beast Taming Academy who has a water-type, ground-type, rock-type, ghost-type, evil-type, electric-type, grass-type, steel-type, fighting-type, or fire-type pet (one point is awarded for each pet defeated)]
[Note: Do not take off your smart glasses during the battle]
【Assessment location: Any location. 】
[End countdown: 2:59:52]
The assessment time is three hours in total... But why are the attributes of the opponent's pets specifically stipulated? There are pets with general, ice, flying, dragon, poison, insect, fairy, and superpower attributes... Does it mean that defeating a beastmaster with these pet attributes will not count as points... Qiao Sang looked at these stipulated attributes, his brain working rapidly, analyzing, and then he thought of something and suddenly it became clear.
Water, Ground, and Rock restrain Fire.
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
Ghost and Dark types restrain Ghost types, and also restrain Psychic types.
Electric and Grass types restrain Water types.
Rock, Steel, Fighting, and Fire types counter Ice types.
Fighting and Fire types restrain Steel types...
The purpose of the assessment is to let them defeat the opponent who just restrains their own attributes... If so, wouldn't it mean that the attributes of the opponents that everyone needs to defeat are different... If one is not careful and chooses the wrong opponent, it may be a waste of fighting and losing the physical strength and energy of the pet... I'm afraid it will take a lot of time just to select the opponents...
Moreover, there are only so many pets with certain attributes. If someone else starts the battle first and the opponent's pet loses its combat effectiveness, you will not be able to initiate a battle again... After figuring it out, Qiao Sang pressed his finger on the side of the frame of the smart glasses, and the virtual panel disappeared.
…
At the same time, several teachers in the Beast Taming area began to talk: "Everyone wants to find a pet with opposite attributes to fight, but for others, it is a restraining attribute. Fighting will waste time. The purpose of this assessment is to let everyone communicate more and learn more about pets."
"Everyone has more than one pet. If we want to find an opponent with opposite attributes and make him agree to fight, both sides must have pets that can restrain each other. You compete with me, and I compete with you. Only then can we fight. I think we need to talk for a while first."
"Maybe someone is just a fool and hits without knowing the situation clearly?"
"Impossible. After all, he is a student of our Yulianton University. He is definitely different from those beast masters who rely purely on brute force."
…
A new area for the Beast Taming Department.
The freshmen quickly understood the purpose of the assessment and discussed with their classmates:
"What attributes do you have for your pets?"
"Water, Grass, Poison, and you?"
"I won't tell you, you can't restrain me at all."
“…”
In order to have a smooth battle, both sides must have pets that are restrained, but finding such an opponent is not an easy task.
All the freshmen of the Beast Taming Department are here. Some of them want to get to know more people before making arrangements for a battle. Otherwise, it will be difficult to find classmates in their department again after leaving, after all, everyone is a stranger.
At that moment, students from other departments all got up and left one after another, but no pair of students from the Beast Taming Department had successfully fought and got out.
Amid the conversation among the crowd, Qiao Sang slowly stood up.
It's too troublesome. Just selecting the opponents will take a lot of time. In this time, we might have finished the fight... Qiao Sang hugged Yabao, cleared his throat, and said loudly:
"100 points. Whoever beats me first will get all my 100 points. I'll be waiting for you outside!"
After saying this, he took a step and prepared to leave.
The originally noisy surroundings suddenly became quiet, and everyone stared at them with burning eyes.
Qiao Sang felt the hot gazes around him, and immediately thought of something. He stopped and added loudly: "Only those who control the beast are allowed."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Everyone in the Beast Taming Department was stunned at first, then stood up in unison and began to swarm towards the gate, pushing each other.
"Get out of the way!"
"Who's blocking the way? I'm right in front of you!"
"Do you want to fight?"
"If you want to fight, wait until I'm done!"
Several teachers in the Beast Taming area: "???"
