After forming a contract with a pet, you can store it in the mark on your wrist. Cheng Huaijin's mind was in a mess; she hadn't figured out how to tell her parents about it—she had awakened her beast-taming talent and had successfully formed a contract with a grass spirit.
After being repeatedly assured that the Grass Sprite would be fed, the Grass Sprite obediently entered the wrist mark.
As Cheng Huaijin walked back, she pondered how to persuade her parents to allow her to attend Yushou Middle School.
This is a difficult situation. Cheng Huaijin has no money, but she needs to go to school to systematically learn knowledge. No matter how much she has searched for knowledge about beast taming over the past few years, all she has learned is some very basic common sense.
It's not impossible to become a Beastmaster on your own, but if you're not a Beastmaster who graduated from a proper school, many things will be limited.
For example, it's very difficult to obtain a Beast Tamer qualification certificate. Without the certificate, you can't participate in various competitions and won't receive prize money. Many Beast Tamer-related professions also have educational requirements, similar to schools in my previous life.
Cheng Huaijin didn't want to challenge the rules of this world; she was determined to attend this school.
There are three junior high schools in Dongcheng that teach beast taming: Dongcheng No. 1 Junior High School, Dongcheng Experimental Junior High School, and Dongcheng Yaotian Middle School Junior High Division.
The First Junior High School and the Experimental Junior High School are both public junior high schools with low tuition fees. Yaotian Middle School's junior high division is a private school affiliated with the Yaotian Education Group. Yaotian Middle School also has a senior high division in Dongcheng District. Students from the junior high division will have lower entrance scores for direct admission.
Of these three schools, Experimental Junior High School and Yaotian Junior High School have the better academic performance, generally ranking first or second in the high school entrance examination (although there are only three schools in total...). As for No. 1 Junior High School, it used to be quite good, but since Yaotian Education came to Dongcheng, it has lost many excellent students, and its academic performance has plummeted.
Cheng Huaijin's target was No. 1 Junior High School. Although it was an average school, its admission score was low!
The entrance exams for junior high school are long over, and there are only two weeks left before the official start of junior high school.
There is only one week left until the supplementary enrollment exam.
Cheng Huaijin considered that although the tuition fee wasn't high, she still needed her parents' support. Especially since she was a minor, enrollment and other matters required her guardian's consent.
In China, the age of awakening for minors is generally 12, but there are exceptions; some have awakened at 13. To avoid this, a supplementary enrollment examination system was established.
Junior high schools usually hold a unified supplementary entrance exam a week before the start of the school year. The exam is open to awakened legal citizens aged 12 to 15. The main exam items are pet knowledge and pet display.
In addition, there are three bonus items: pet battle display, pet gorgeous display, and pet friendliness display.
These three categories correspond to the Beastmaster profession, Beastmaster Fighter, Beastmaster Magnificent, and Beastmaster Breeder, respectively.
Cheng Huaijin's mind raced through the exam-related knowledge, and just as she made up her mind, she arrived home.
She took a deep breath and pushed open the door to her home.
No one is home.
Cheng Huaijin called out in surprise, "Mom? Dad? Cheng Woyu?"
No one answered.
Cheng Huaijin called his mother on the landline, and it took her a long time to answer.
"Oh, Jin'er. I forgot to tell you. We're not home right now. Your brother just called and said he's got his eye on a Flame Wolf. I'm going to deliver the money."
Cheng Huaijin had read the information about this pet.
[Flame Wolf, a fire-type pet, has a fiery personality and extremely high combat talent. Its special move is Flame Impact.]
Cheng Huaijin's heart sank. The Flame Wolf, as a pet with high growth potential, has always been worth around 500,000 yuan on the market... Does her family still have the money to support her education?
Cheng Huaijin's consciousness entered the wrist mark, and the Grass Sprite's stats appeared in her mind.
Pet: Grass Sprite
Age: 3 years old
Level: 3/30
Skills: Slap Level 2, Immovable Level 5, Vine Whip Level 4.
Cheng Huaijin was somewhat surprised, not expecting that this grass sprite was already 3 years old. The lifespan of grass sprites is affected by the local climate, and the upper limit generally fluctuates between 5 and 6 years, which means that this grass sprite has already reached middle age.
No wonder he's so shrewd... Cheng Huaijin sighed, he's practically a seasoned veteran among pet animals.
However, this grass sprite has decent skill levels even without training, showing it to be a diligent and intelligent pet. It's just a pity that grass sprites are generally weak and have limited growth potential.
Cheng Huaijin summoned the grass spirit: "Grass spirit, now that we've made a contract, we should be considered companions."
"Grass." The grass sprite nodded.
Cheng Huaijin patiently advised, "Since we are companions, we should help each other."
"Damn it." The grass sprite seemed to be asking, "What exactly are you trying to say, human?"
Unexpectedly, the grass spirit didn't continue the conversation, and Cheng Huaijin began to understand the temperament of this pet.
"Then I'll be frank. I'm about to take the supplementary entrance exam for Beast Taming Junior High School. You'll be taking it with me."
"Damn, damn it."
The grass spirit said it needed to eat its fill before it could work.
Good grief, they're already putting on airs. Negotiations require sincerity, and besides, the grass sprite's demands aren't unreasonable.
Cheng Huaijin readily agreed, placed the grass sprite on her shoulder, and walked to the balcony.
"Grass!"
I want to eat human food!
The grass fairy's leaves tugged at a tuft of Cheng Huaijin's hair.
Cheng Huaijin stopped in his tracks: "Can grass spirits eat human food? I read online that you all photosynthesize by sunbathing, just like plants. There's some fertilizer and soil on the balcony, and I was thinking of planting you in a flowerpot first."
