Looking at her own jade pendant numbered 6666 and Lu Li's numbered 6667, which ranked 57th and 58th respectively.
The senior and junior disciples exchanged a glance, a smile flashing in their eyes, but they remained silent, standing quietly in the square, waiting for the next challenge to begin.
Fortunately, Lingxin Academy is always efficient, and the final assessment item was quickly announced: a points-based competition.
As the name suggests, it's about grabbing score tokens. All members who pass the first stage enter a small world prepared by the academy to grab score tokens. The top 1,000 members with the highest scores advance.
Perhaps inheriting the dean's decisiveness, the master who explained the rules was also very straightforward. He briefly explained the rules of the competition, then waved his long sleeves and directly opened the small world.
As soon as the small world opened, Shushu felt the jade pendant on her body emit a soft light, which enveloped her completely before she could think about it.
When the light faded, Lu Li was nowhere to be seen. At the same time, Shushu realized that he had probably been teleported to someone's bird's nest.
She glanced at the several Gale Eagle cubs who were trembling in fear in another corner, startled by her appearance.
The yam was a little at a loss for what to do, and silently took a small step back, trying to create some distance so as not to frighten them any further.
Unexpectedly, her step back landed precisely on the other end of the tree where the Gale Eagle cubs were standing.
Before the three little creatures could react, they were propelled by the lever principle and pounced on the sweet potato in a flash, as if throwing themselves into its arms.
Shushu instinctively wanted to dodge, but when she scanned the situation behind her with her divine sense, she realized that if she dodged, the three Gale Eagle chicks, who probably couldn't fly yet, would fall to the ground and be smashed into shards.
Out of concern for the young, Shushu almost instinctively used her spiritual power to catch all three Gale Eagle cubs safely.
Then, the three Gale Eagle cubs, realizing they were surrounded by the aura of strangers, became even more panicked.
While making anxious shouts, it didn't forget to use its not-yet-sharp beak to grab the sweet potato in a cute but fierce way.
Shushu had already developed a strong physique, and the pecking of these three Gale Eagle cubs was like tickling her.
Not only did it not cause her any harm, but the three Gale Eagle cubs pecked their own beaks until they hurt, their eyes filled with tears. They stopped pecking and opened their mouths to burst into tears.
Shushu had experienced the haunting sound of Xuan Shen Zai Zai. Whenever he saw them open their mouths, Xuan Shen Zai Zai's loud voice would automatically play in his mind.
In an instant, he shuddered, and before his mind could even process it, his hand had already swiftly pulled out three jade fruits from his spatial storage and quickly stuffed them into the mouths of the three Gale Eagle cubs.
The three little Gale Eagle cubs then made the following sounds: "Wow~ Uh!"
Immediately following was the sound of three people crunching and munching on spirit fruits.
The spirit fruit wasn't very big, and it was quickly devoured by the three little ones, who still had tears in their eyes. Then, they looked longingly at the yam.
There was nothing he could do; Shushu had always been powerless against cubs. Seeing the three pairs of pitiful, tearful eyes, he could only take out three more jade fruits and hand them over.
The next moment, another synchronized clicking sound rang out.
They ate four or five more, until all three of them were full, before they stopped.
Perhaps because of the Jade Fruit, the three Gale Eagle cubs were no longer afraid of or avoiding the millet.
They even showed affection, very generously pushing the yam into the middle of their nest, and then one by one they nestled into the yam's embrace as if they were old friends, and started chattering.
Since the millet is a divine beast, it can understand most of the language of spirit beasts, if not all of it. The language of the Gale Eagle also happens to be within its comprehension range.
The three cubs were also unsuspecting. Shushu just pretended to chatter a few times. To outsiders, she was just making random noises, but to the three Gale Eagle cubs, it sounded like Shushu was talking to them.
It was a question-and-answer session, just like with the little potato. It quietly took advantage of the fact that humans didn't understand the language of spirit beasts and successfully got a lot of information out of the three of them.
They not only knew that their parents had been entrusted with an important task by the Spirit Heart Academy, namely hiding the highest score card.
They also knew that the points card was hidden in a hole in this tree, but it was protected by an array that made it difficult for outsiders to find, and only the Gale Eagle could open it.
Then, the sorghum pretended to gesture with its hands and feet while actually chattering away.
She successfully tricked the three Gale Eagle cubs into handing over six Jade Fruits in exchange, and they worked together to get her to hand over her points card.
Perhaps fearing they would be beaten if their parents found out, the three cubs even had Shushu secretly give them a fake one to put inside, trying to keep it a secret for as long as possible.
The skill level was so high that it was obvious the person was used to doing bad things. Even Shushu couldn't help but twitch his lips and look up at the sky speechlessly.
I wonder if Gale Eagle's parents will beat their son when they come back and find that the points card has been changed.
I also wonder if those people outside, seeing how easily I managed to scare them away, will regret handing over the points tokens to their parents for safekeeping.
However, these thoughts only flashed through her mind for a moment before she put them out of her mind. Looking at the two big characters "Ten Thousand" on the scoreboard, Shushu felt overjoyed.
With this top-tier title, her entry into the inner courtyard is practically guaranteed.
Thinking of this, and to avoid being caught red-handed by Gale Eagle's parents when they returned, Shushu quickly tricked his three cubs into keeping the secret and not saying that he had been there.
Then, she quickly erased all traces of her presence and said goodbye to the three Gale Eagle cubs before running away in a flash.
After running for dozens of miles, she covered up her scent and carefully found a place to hide until the end.
Unfortunately, her cultivation level wasn't particularly high compared to the other participants in the assessment, especially since she was alone and hadn't found Lu Li.
Knowing his own limitations, Shushu was quite sensible and wouldn't foolishly try to show off.
In addition, she had just received information from the three Gale Eagle cubs about where the light barrier was in the secret realm.
The next moment, she disappeared from the sight of everyone outside.
After all, although the secret realm has a light screen projection, it is still limited. It is impossible to project the screen in all directions without any blind spots. There will always be areas that cannot be covered.
The millet targeted these areas, hiding in blind spots and changing its scent accordingly.
She also affixed a series of invisibility and isolation charms to the points board, temporarily cutting off external monitoring of it and preventing anyone from finding her through the points board.
This operation happens almost every year, and there are corresponding explanations from the outside world.
Therefore, this method of cooking millet and potatoes is not too unusual, nor is it unique.
Soon, she placed several high-level concealment and invisibility talismans on herself where these people couldn't see her, and quietly hid right under everyone's noses.
