Important midterm exam

When the day of the midterm exam arrived, Gu Xiaoyue had already received the system task, along with a secondary task: to break the training record at Xiao Pan Mountain.

Before the exam, Teacher Han gave another briefing: "This midterm exam is extremely important. It is a mock exam for the college entrance exam and follows the same format, only the time is significantly shortened."

Combat-type students and healing-type students have their data recorded separately. Why is it so important? First, based on the data from this exam, we can evaluate which institutions you should apply to in the future.

Second, in over half a month, there will be special training at Xiao Pan Mountain, gathering all the best prospects in the city. Our Elite Class has 3 spots.

The top three students in this midterm exam will be able to participate in the Xiao Pan Mountain training.

Of course, whether you take first place in the midterm exam or first place in the special training, there will be generous rewards. Everyone, do your best!"

Originally, the students were not very enthusiastic, as the first-place spot would most likely be Gu Xiaoyue's. However, since there were 3 spots for the special training, the second and third places were still worth striving for.

The exam content lasts 30 minutes, starting from fighting beasts at Young life stage 2. The higher the level of the beast defeated within the 30 minutes, the more points you get.

For healing students, their healing ability value is calculated within a specified amount of time.

Currently, most of the pet beasts in the Elite Class are at Young life stage 3 and 4.

Gu Xiaoyue and Chu Li's pet beasts are both at Young life stage 6; the gap between them and the other students has already widened by a huge margin.

Since it was an individual battle, Chu Li did not participate.

As waves of students finished their exams, the best result was Young life stage 5.

When it was Gu Xiaoyue's turn, she calculated for a moment.

If she had half an hour, she could easily reach Young life stage 8, but she didn't want to be too flashy.

After all, she was already quite conspicuous.

So, she took Qingqing and the little bear, defeated the Young life stage 7 beast, and teleported out.

As expected, when she came out, the other students were surprised. "Why did she hand in her paper early?"

The students didn't know her score; they just simply thought it was strange that Gu Xiaoyue came out early.

Until all the students had finished the exam, Teacher Han announced to everyone: "The first place this time is Gu Xiaoyue, with a score of defeating a Young life stage 7 beast!"

Teacher Han was a bit excited. He knew Gu Xiaoyue's strength was formidable, and he was even certain that she had hidden her true strength.

"Whoa—that's amazing!"

"Is this the strength of a full-attribute Human Level talent?"

"With Gu Xiaoyue's strength, the top scorer for this year is probably a sure thing!"

The students began to chatter. Now, they were no longer jealous of Gu Xiaoyue; instead, they genuinely saw the gap between themselves and her.

Teacher Han continued to announce: "The second and third places both achieved the result of killing a Young life stage 5 beast, and they are Zhou Chuan and Duan Qiaoxin respectively."

"Teacher, do we healing students have spots for the Xiao Pan Mountain special training?" Chen Yixuan asked, raising his hand.

Teacher Han frowned. Previously, there had been no precedent for healing students to undergo special training.

Healers are very precious. They have almost no combat power during field special training, and it is very dangerous if they get separated.

"I don't really recommend healing students go for special training. If you don't team up with combat types, it is very dangerous.

If you are worried that they will be in danger during the special training, I can guarantee you that this special training has a very complete security system. If they encounter danger, they can end the training."

"Are you relieved now?" Teacher Han patiently explained to Chen Yixuan.

Chen Yixuan looked at Gu Xiaoyue with some concern, his gaze almost sticky with attachment.

Chu Li stepped out and blocked Chen Yixuan's line of sight.

"Alright, tomorrow everyone bring me the institutions you want to apply to, and I will help you analyze them. The top three students come to me, and the other students can leave school."

Teacher Han roughly explained the content of the special training, the rules, and the necessary items to Gu Xiaoyue and the others. He also specifically told Gu Xiaoyue to go find the principal tomorrow to collect her rewards.

Gu Xiaoyue pondered; this special training was a field training, so she could use Xiao Hei's hidden space to rest.

Xiao Hei was at Young life stage 5, and its hidden space was already 16 square meters.

By the time of the special training, it would be able to upgrade to stage 6, which would mean 32 square meters of space.

Putting in a small bed and preparing some survival supplies would be no problem.

Thus, Gu Xiaoyue went to Hualian Shopping Mall, bought the supplies and tools needed for the special training, and stored them all in her Yu Beast Space.

She planned to organize them slowly when she got home.

When she returned home, Mu Qingning had already prepared dinner and called for her to eat quickly.

At the dinner table, Gu Yu said to Gu Xiaoyue: "Your mother and I have decided to return to the Gu Family."

Gu Xiaoyue didn't even look up while eating: "Okay."

"I told you our Xiao Yue is sensible, but you said she would throw a tantrum." Mu Qingning picked up a piece of pork rib that Gu Xiaoyue liked and placed it in her bowl.

"However, regarding the matter of you making your grandfather apologize, I really can't bring myself to say it." Gu Yu looked at Gu Xiaoyue with some guilt.

To Gu Xiaoyue, she just wanted to help the original owner and her family stand up for themselves, but since the original owner's parents were no longer fighting for it, she naturally let it go.

"Hmm, as long as you two have thought it through, that's fine."

Gu Xiaoyue shook her head, thinking to herself: Gu Yu's personality is truly soft; even if they return to the Gu Family, they will likely be bullied.

Was that Gu Xiaoxing's unreasonable and willful nature innate? If there are bratty children, there must be bratty parents. It seems her cheap second uncle and second aunt are also not easy to deal with.

"Oh, right, let me tell you, I got first place in this midterm exam. In about half a month, the school is organizing special training at Xiao Pan Mountain, and I have to leave home for a while."

Mu Qingning looked at Gu Xiaoyue, her eyes brimming with tears: "My Xiao Yue is truly capable!"

Gu Yu pulled out two tissues and handed them to her: "This is a double blessing; it's a good thing, don't cry. Xiao Yue, Dad will take you to buy the things you need!"

Gu Xiaoyue swallowed the food in her mouth and said: "No need, Dad, the school has prepared everything, so I can just go when the time comes."

"Alright, alright, alright, then we will wait until you come back to move. Let's eat, let's eat." Gu Yu nodded vigorously, his hand holding the chopsticks trembling slightly. His daughter was truly capable!

After tidying everything up, Gu Xiaoyue claimed the system's task rewards.

She rubbed her hands together, feeling a bit expectant about what kind of pet beast it would be this time.

A bean the size of a kumquat appeared in front of her.

A bean? Is this also a pet beast?

She hesitated for a moment before dripping a drop of blood onto the bean, and the bean flashed with a jade-green light.

Subsequently, at a speed visible to the naked eye, it sprouted, grew branches, and turned into a vine as thick as a finger and over a foot long.

【Name】: Ten Thousand Year Vine

【Rank】: Devil Rank Top Quality

【Attribute】: Wood Attribute

【Skills】: Plant Manipulation (Low Level), Strangling (Low Level), Wood Thorns (Low Level)

【Level】: Young life stage 1

Gu Xiaoyue touched it with some suspicion. Is it a pet beast?

To her surprise, the vine seemed to feel ticklish and started to tremble all over.

Gu Xiaoyue was amused by its appearance: "From now on, you will be called Xiao Lv."

She had a bit too many pet beasts now, and she was starting to suffer from naming fatigue, unable to come up with any good names.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be calling them Xiao Jiu, Xiao Hei, and Xiao Xiong.

The vine nodded, seeming to understand her words.

However—Gu Xiaoyue was a bit confused; does Xiao Lv eat meat or is it vegetarian?

Previously, when she went to Hualian to buy Devil Rank Beast Food for Xiao Hei, the sales assistant told her that Devil Rank food is all meat-based. What if Xiao Lv is vegetarian?

She asked Xiao Lv: "Are you vegetarian?"

Xiao Lv shook its body, as if saying no.

Gu Xiaoyue was relieved at that moment, that's good—wait, no, Devil Rank Beast Food!

She had bought half a year's worth of beast food for Xiao Hei two months ago. She didn't know if it was the effect of consuming the lanzhi grass or some other reason.

Xiao Hei had already eaten three months' worth!

In that case, it would be better to ask Principal Liu for beast food tomorrow.

Gu Xiaoyue took out the last leaf of the lanzhi grass and gave it to Xiao Lv to absorb.

She played with Xiao Lv for a while longer before taking it back into her Yu Beast Space.

Teacher Han said that tomorrow she needs to report which institution she wants to apply to. Which one should she take the exam for?
