The second exam has begun.
"This exam is a beast-taming battle. Please draw a number and battle in pairs according to the order." The male teacher, still acting as the host, led the students to the battle arena and announced the battle rules.
"Two contestants will compete against each other. The winners will advance to the winners' bracket, and the losers will advance to the losers' bracket. The final rankings will be determined based on the head-to-head results, which will then be converted into the final score. Our judges will also score participants based on their performance. The final score for the competition will consist of both ranking points and performance points."
The male teacher told the students, "After all the battle exams are over, students can apply for scholarship battles on their own. As long as you defeat 80% of the students, you will be eligible to apply. It should be noted that applicants cannot refuse challenges from students they have never battled before."
Cheng Huaijin frowned. This rule hadn't appeared on the official website before. It was a rule with a lot of variables.
If she defeats 80% of the candidates present, and then someone she hasn't fought before challenges her, she must accept the challenge. But while she's managed after so many battles, Bobo will be exhausted. If she loses, the examiners will definitely notice, which will be very detrimental to her later scholarship competition.
Moreover… Cheng Huaijin glanced around at the candidates and realized that the number of people present was higher than in the previous exam! She saw five or six people who hadn’t come to the previous exam but were here this time.
Zhong Xiwu is one of them.
Noticing Cheng Huaijin's gaze, Zhong Xiwu smiled at her.
Zhong Wanqing stood next to her brother, looking around.
The male teacher noticed that Zhong Wanqing, who was wearing the Yaotian Junior High School uniform, was particularly conspicuous. He asked, "What are you doing in the exam room? Get out of here, we have an exam."
"Let her come to me. She's a student on our training team," a hoarse, deep voice said.
Everyone looked over and saw a stylish old lady wearing a beret walk in from the doorway, waving and smiling at Zhong Wanqing.
Zhong Wanqing's expression froze: "Hahaha, Teacher Guan, what brings you here?"
Guan Shanyue sat down in the examiner's seat: "How would I know you were here if I didn't come? You've finished your training, haven't you?"
Zhong Wanqing dawdled over, looking at her toes, and said, "I'm done..."
Guan Shanyue responded with an "Oh".
Zhong Wanqing added, "...except for the training notes."
Guan Shanyue looked at Zhong Wanqing meaningfully.
Zhong Wanqing wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground. Teacher Guan had everyone staring at her! Waaah!
"Alright, alright, let's deal with the students after we've finished disciplining them. Let's get the exam over with, the sooner we take it, the sooner it'll be over." A short male teacher appeared, his sparse hair suggesting he might be engaged in highly mentally demanding activities.
The male teacher introduced, "Teacher Guan Shanyue is the head coach of the Beast Taming Combat Team at Yaotian Junior High School. You may join the school's training team in the future, and you will then have to get in touch with Teacher Guan."
He then addressed the newly appeared male teacher, saying, "This is Teacher Hao Zhiyu, who is mainly responsible for the breeding and treatment of pets in Yaotian Junior High School."
A sudden shower of flower petals appeared in the examination room.
"Hua Zhongjin, head coach of the Beast Taming Splendor Team at Yaotian Junior High School. Welcome to the Beast Taming Splendor Team!" A handsome man in a pink casual suit appeared out of nowhere and gave everyone an elegant princely bow.
Seeing that the three examiners had all arrived, the male teacher said no more and directly announced the start of the exam.
Cheng Huaijin held the number plate in his hand, feeling a little nervous and excited.
This was my first serious beast-taming battle.
We must win!
"Next up are candidate number 7, Cheng Huaijin, and candidate number 8, He Tiantian!"
Cheng Huaijin took a deep breath and stepped onto the battle stage.
Across from him was a boy wearing glasses. Cheng Huaijin smiled at him.
He Tiantian pursed her lips and said, "He Tiantian requests a battle."
Cheng Huaijin announced loudly, "Cheng Huaijin requests a duel!"
The battle platform slowly rose, and the battle began!
Cheng Huaijin summoned Greenleaf Lime Popo: "Popo, come out!"
A giant Emerald Leaf Lime appeared out of thin air, blocking Cheng Huaijin's path with a loud thud.
This is Popo's true form, which is about the size of a heavy truck, making it a colossal giant among Leyne!
"Whoa!" A small commotion arose from the crowd.
Hao Zhiyu squinted: "What a huge Emerald Green Lime."
Guan Shanyue commented, "It should be at the maximum level."
Hao Zhiyu observed carefully: "A very, very rare giant Emerald Leaf Lime, this is already considered an evolved mutation. This beast tamer has done a good job raising it."
“It’s also possible that she didn’t raise it,” Guan Shanyue said. “This Greenleaf Lime might be about the same age as this student.”
Hua Zhongjin said, "The little girl is quite pretty."
Guan Shanyue: "Indeed, quite heroic."
Hao Zhiyu: ...?
He Tiantian hadn't expected his opponent to send out a Greenleaf Lime, a low-level pet known for its naivety and innocence. Even if it was large, its skills were limited... Thinking this, he calmed down; thankfully, his own pet was fire-type!
"Flame Wolf! I choose you!"
Cheng Huaijin: Good heavens! It's the same old formula.
This Flame Wolf is much stronger than Cheng Woyu's previous one. Its fur is smooth and shiny, its expression is proud and confident, and its red tail has a small flame burning at the tip. It is both cute and powerful.
Cheng Huaijin: So this is what the Flaming Wolf looks like!
As soon as the Flame Wolf landed, He Tiantian issued the command: "Flame Attack!"
