Beast taming, starting from zero point novel Chapter 534

Chapter 534: Chapter 490 Trivial University

Minister, a big shot indeed...

Qiao Sang greeted with a smile,

"Minister Zhou, good to see you."

"I’ve been watching from below during the national competition," Minister Zhou said as he looked at Qiao Sang, his face unable to hide his burgeoning smile, "Becoming a champion at 15 by breaking through the senior high level is unprecedented in the history of the entire national campus Beast Taming competition. You really brought honor to our Yuhua Region."

Just as Qiao Sang was about to respond modestly to the praise.

At that moment, Liu Yao spoke,

"Let’s not all stand here; let’s find a place to sit down and talk while we eat."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Sang’s first instinct was to decline.

Eating with a leader was the last thing she wanted to do...

Of course, she couldn’t say this out loud. Qiao Sang obediently followed the vice principal and the others to a spot by the window and sat down.

"This is the first time I’ve seen a Liaoxing Dog up so close," Minister Zhou said, looking at Yaobao drinking milk, "It really does have a majestic appearance."

"Yaobao."

Yaobao understood and barked at the person in front of it, as if to say, ’you have a fine eye.’

After chatting for a while, Minister Zhou suddenly remembered something and turned to Liu Yao, "I recall that you’re the person in charge of the latest evolution project for the Fire-Toothed Dog."

As Minister Zhou was in charge of education, he didn’t have much insight into the research. His knowledge of this was because Qiao Sang’s pet beast was a Liaoxing Dog, and Liu Yao just happened to be the vice principal of Qiao Sang’s school.

Liu Yao nodded, "That’s me."

Minister Zhou said earnestly, "This research must take a lot of time, and Qiao Sang will soon be taking the high school exams. It would be best if she could focus on her studies during this period, research can wait."

Qiao Sang looked totally bewildered.

High school exams?

Who’s taking the high school exams?!

Liu Yao said solemnly, "I understand, as our research is actually still stuck on the Flame Listening Dog. Even if we manage to research the first stage evolution type, it will certainly be after the high school exams are over. We will need the Liaoxing Dog for research much later, so it won’t interfere with Qiao Sang’s studies."

Minister Zhou took a sip of his drink, "That’s good to hear."

Hey, hey, hey! What are you talking about?! What high school exams?! After being confused for a while, Qiao Sang ventured to ask,

"Aren’t the high school exams only for seniors?"

Minister Zhou replied, surprised,

"Didn’t your teacher tell you? Minister Yan from the Zhongkong Region said that as long as you didn’t allow the Ghost Ring Phantom to use Spatial Movement to directly transfer your opponent out of the arena during the national competition, gaining a top-two position would qualify you for the intergalactic exchange student spot, and you would be allowed to take the high school exams alongside the seniors."

At that moment, Liu Yao looked over, "Teacher Sun should have mentioned this to you."

He was aware of this matter. Even if Teacher Sun Boyi didn’t seem much use during the competition, he wouldn’t be that unreliable.

Suddenly, the memories she thought were dead came flooding back, flashing through her mind like a revolving lantern.

Qiao Sang’s face cleared.

She remembered now. She had been quite excited at the time, but then she got so engrossed in the national competition that she forgot all about it.

No wonder Minister Yan from the Zhongkong Region had cheered her on for the high school exams during the award ceremony...

High school exams... So she’s supposed to prepare for them now?! But she hadn’t agreed to it at that time. Although the idea of finishing high school early was quite exciting, with only a few months left before the exams and with her grades, how could she possibly compete for top academic institutions? A brainstorm began in Qiao Sang’s mind.

"You can consider Yuhua University. They independently set and grade their special admission academic exams, which are much simpler compared to the college entrance exams. As long as you pass, you don’t need to take the college entrance exam."

"The Beast Taming assessment, however, will be much tougher, but I believe definitely you can handle it."

Not needing to take the college entrance exam... This university seems good... Qiao Sang couldn’t help but feel tempted.

Minister Zhou continued discussing casually, nearly reviewing every renowned university in the Yuhua Region.

After he left, Liu Yao, who had been quiet throughout, spoke up:

"I suggest you consider the top universities in the Zhongkong Region or Chong Island’s Xingdao University."

Qiao Sang was taken aback: "But wouldn’t it be even harder to get into top universities in other regions?"

Each region has unique Pet Beasts, and with differences in educational levels and regional diversification, the college entrance exam questions and required scores for admission vary by region.

The Zhongkong Region and Chong Island both have resources and educational environments that surpass those of the Yuhua Region, making the competition for top universities there even more fierce than in Yuhua.

Liu Yao looked at Qiao Sang and asked, "Do you plan to stay in the Yuhua Region forever?"

Without hesitation, Qiao Sang replied, "Of course not."

"Then aim for a better school. Although those universities in Yuhua are top institutions, they don’t even rank in the national top ten." Liu Yao spoke earnestly, word by word:

"Your Beast Taming Talent is something I’ve rarely seen in my lifetime. You deserve a better future. It would be a waste not to target the very best of the top universities in the country."

"I’m confident you can pass any school’s assessment tests. As for the academic side..."

Liu Yao paused here before continuing, "If you don’t pass this year, you’ll have next year, and if not next year, you can try again. You have three chances at the college entrance exam. Since you aspire to explore broader horizons, why not set your sights higher?"

Qiao Sang’s spirits lifted.

Indeed, she aimed to participate in the Interstellar Cup; as for colleges, what’s there to fear in dreaming big!
