Having restored its spirit, it became anxious the moment it learned that Zhang Xiaoyu’s points were at the bottom of the top one hundred, and dragged Zhang Xiaoyu to challenge other contestants in the top hundred.
In the past, it would have been slightly selective about its opponent, not challenging flying creatures, only those that couldn’t fly.
But now, it wasn’t being cautious at all!
Recalling the previous battles, it finally understood how to combat flying Guardian Beasts!
Instant Step could actually be used for power jumping!
It never expected that its own Beast Tamer clearly knew this but had deliberately not told it.
A stab in the back from the Beast Tamer +1.
However, recalling the last moments where it became weak and Zhang Xiaoyu was rolling with it on the grass, its gaze towards Zhang Xiaoyu subtly changed.
Its boldness was only towards others.
Even during brief pauses in battling other Guardian Beasts, it would occasionally glance towards Qiuqiu, but its body honestly moved around Qiuqiu.
If it couldn’t win, it would let it go and try again next time!
Apart from Qiuqiu, none of the other contestants’ Guardian Beasts were a match for this one, and soon Zhang Xiaoyu’s points surged, reaching around 11,000 points and surpassing Ji Yun to become second.
Though not as good as Lin Su, Zhang Xiaoyu similarly displayed the formidable side of his Guardian Beast, making other contestants aware that he was not to be messed with, dismissing any thoughts of challenging him.
Only then did Zhang Xiaoyu stop and sit beside Lin Su.
This indeed rescued Lin Su from his boredom of merely watching, finally having someone to chat with.
The two young men who had been fighting just before now sat in the very center of the chaotic battlefield where countless contestants were challenging each other, under the brightest beams of light, chatting nonchalantly.
Afterwards, from time to time, some stronger contestants totalled more than 10,000 points, but they couldn’t maintain their points, quickly losing in the successive challenges of other contestants.
Ultimately, the third place was still held by Ji Yun, who wasn’t in the center of the field but walked around the entire area, circling over and over, making it impossible for anyone to challenge him.
The fourth place was still Zhao Tianchen.
Initially, to avoid Lin Su’s challenge, he actively challenged the fifth place, Li Shuo, only to find that Li Shuo was also clever, sharing the idea of stalling for time, and the two hit it off, playing a rigged match under the watchful eyes of everyone.
This match lasted for three hours.
But to say they violated any assessment rules, there seemed to be none…
After this practical assessment, the assessment rules likely had to be supplemented because of this.
Zhong Hao wasn’t so lucky; he took several contestants’ challenges in succession, fought back after failures, and his point ranking fluctuated repeatedly. Luckily, the Molten Giant Bear was formidable enough to keep him in the top ten, settling at eighth.
As the three-hour second phase of the assessment approached its end, the points rankings of the top hundred contestants finally stabilized.
The third phase, lasting only half an hour, arrived.
Contestants who didn’t score enough points and were weaker in challenges got their opportunity.
Countless hidden passage jades, yet undiscovered, suddenly glowed dazzlingly, allowing the contestants to obtain them based on their skills. Read exclusive content at freewebnovel
Passage jades weren’t like hunting points; they couldn’t be transferred or snatched, so the amount acquired directly increased one’s points, depending purely on skill.
This did not affect the point rankings of the top hundred contestants.
Eventually, the nearly ten-hour Mountain City University entrance practical assessment concluded, with Lin Su undisputedly taking first place with a total score of 15400.
In the subsequent two segments, besides battling Zhang Xiaoyu once, he did nothing else.
The final results of the entrance assessment would be weighted and combined with the theoretical assessment tomorrow, but his first place in the practical assessment should be unquestionable.
“The joy of coming in first had to be shared with Qiuqiu,” Lin Su smiled, about to walk toward the dormitory building when suddenly his expression changed. He violently lifted his head to look upward, toward the window of his own dorm room on a higher floor.
At this distance, his Guardian Beast Contract with Qiuqiu was reconnected, and telepathy was now usable.
No sooner had the connection been established than Lin Su heard Qiuqiu’s voice through telepathy.
“Lin Su, save me…”
This is bad!
Qiuqiu is in danger!
Lin Su’s expression instantly changed, the joy from securing the top spot in the entrance assessment completely dissipated, leaving only a chill down his spine.
Qiuqiu hadn’t left; it was still in the dorm, but now it was crying out for help.
Could it be the Beast Sect?!
That was the only group he could think of that held malice toward him.
This is area 11; how could they have infiltrated his dorm without anyone noticing?
“Qiuqiu, stay alert!” he murmured sternly.
Qiuqiu, also hearing Qiuqiu’s voice through telepathy, took on a severe expression.
Little brother is in danger!
A frosty intent slowly diffused in its eyes, and an icy blue light flickered in the vertical pupils on its forehead. Cold Frost Dream Domain was ready to be unleashed.
Carrying Qiuqiu, Lin Su hastened into the elevator, entered his floor, and took out his communicator, intending to call Qin Nan.
But after a second thought, he temporarily put down the communicator.
The situation was still uncertain; better to wait until he knew more.
Although he hadn’t dialed it yet, his hand was already on the communicator, the calling interface open, ready to dial Qin Nan’s number with just a light tap.
If he encountered a crisis he couldn’t handle alone, he would call sister Nan immediately.
Stepping out of the elevator, Lin Su instantly noticed the slightly ajar door and his pupils contracted slightly.
Someone had gone inside!
Who could it be?!
He rushed into the room carrying Qiuqiu, only for his expression to turn to astonishment.
Inside the room, Qin Nan was lounging on the sofa with her legs crossed, pinching Qiuqiu’s face and examining it closely while muttering, “Ugly as sin, but feels pretty good.”
Then, her gaze nonchalantly shifted to Lin Su as he entered, “Oh? Back already?”
Qiuqiu, struggling under Qin Nan’s merciless grip, turned its head to Lin Su, showing a pitiful expression.
“Jee… (╥﹏╥)” (This human is terrifying…)
Lin Su: (≖_≖)
Qiuqiu: (≖ω≖)
What the heck is going on here?!
It was just one day away, what on earth happened?!
