Chapter 17

Last year, the minimum score for the Zangang City entrance exam was 332. If Zhan Wei can reach a 6% awakening level, he only needs to score 132 in the exam to be admitted through special enrollment.

Based on Zhan Wei's current grades, there shouldn't be a problem.

As for Holy Water High School, it's a bit more troublesome. They only admit five self-awakening special enrollment students, and after the application is approved, they have to participate in a designated time and location for pet battles.

The students who pass from second to fifth place need to score 50 points higher than the minimum score line for the high school entrance exam to be admitted.

The first place is a bit more relaxed, as long as they score above the minimum score line for Zangang City.

Although self-awakening individuals are rare, if you gather all the people in Zhehai Province, there are still 40 to 50 each year.

Excluding those who are recommended or specially enrolled in other schools, Holy Water High School receives enrollment applications from self-awakening students every year, and there are more than ten of them. After all, it is the top-ranked school in Zangang City, and it has some reputation.

Zhan Wei looked at the information and saw that the special enrollment exam for Holy Water High School will be held on June 10th, one week before the high school entrance exam, which is 12 days from now.

Pet battles, huh?

Zhan Wei pondered for a while. The people participating in the special enrollment are those who have awakened this year, and their pets are all beginner-level. He has contracted with a fire-type pet, so he does have an advantage.

Thinking of Firefang Dog, Zhan Wei was slightly stunned, and then his consciousness entered the Beast Tamer Manual.

[Name: Firefang Dog]

[Attribute: Fire]

[Level: Beginner (115/1000)+]

[Skills: Bite (Basic 73/100)+, Slam (Proficient 135/500)+, Fire Fang (Basic 2/100)+, Spark (Basic 3/100)]

[Points: 0]

Zhan Wei withdrew his consciousness and looked at Firefang Dog with a strange expression.

You learned the Spark skill just by watching TV?!

Is it worth it to spend over 4000 union coins for a skill?

Well, it's actually quite worth it....

The potential of pets is limited, and it is not possible to determine their aptitude just by their appearance. Pets with good aptitude, whether in terms of skills or awakening, progress much faster than ordinary pets.

If you're unlucky and contract with a mediocre pet, it may take a year for them to learn just one skill.

Zhan Wei looked at Firefang Dog, lost in thought.

His Firefang Dog has good aptitude. Should he take it to watch a horror movie next time?

Firefang Dog involuntarily trembled, why does it suddenly feel a bit cold?

...

...

It was 22:12 in the evening.

The night was quiet, and all sounds were silent.

Zhan Wei lay on the bed, hands supporting his head, his eyes filled with an eager desire to try. After tossing and turning for a while, He sat up and looked at Firefang Dog, who was still energetic.

Firefang Dog had been stared at for a while, looking confused.

"Bark?"

Zhan Wei whispered softly, "I don't blame you for what happened in the morning. Do you want to watch TV again?"

Firefang Dog remembered what happened in the morning and knew that it had done something wrong. The things inside the TV wouldn't come out anyway.

"Bark."

It nodded, indicating that it wanted to watch.

Zhan Wei picked up hist phone from the bedside and searched for the most popular horror movie recently, placing it in front of Firefang Dog.

Firefang Dog watched attentively.

In the forest surrounded by thick fog, a girl dressed in white was walking. Through the girl's perspective, a black figure appeared faintly suspended in the air...

Zhan Wei didn't watch the movie with Firefang Dog. Instead, he placed right hand on her phone, observing Firefang Dog's reaction, ready to withdraw at any moment.

Silence and darkness enveloped the surroundings, filled with an eerie quietness.

A black figure suddenly approached, emitting a sinister laughter.

It had no limbs, only a body the size of a human head floating in the air, with dark red eyes staring at the white-clad girl like prey.

In the next moment, the limbless body suddenly grew hands with only two fingers each, reaching towards the girl's heart.

The hand passed through the girl's body, leaving it hollow.

The black figure widened its eyes in disbelief.

The girl lifted her head, and a face without features slowly appeared in the frame...

"Bark!"

Fire Fang Dog pounced into Zhan Wei's arms.

It didn't want to look anymore!

Zhan Wei stroked its head, feeling a bit regretful...

...

...

The next two days happened to be the weekend, and Zhan Wei rejected Li Ming's suggestion to go out and chose to study at home alone.

Apart from taking the time to register as a beast tamer with Fire Fang Dog at the Beast Tamer Center, he spent almost all of his remaining time in books.

Not sure if it was due to the awakening of his brain domain, his memory had improved a lot compared to his previous life, and he could remember most of what he read after just one read.

Soon, it was time to go back to school again.

"Fire Fang Dog, be good. I'll let you out after school." Zhan Wei coaxed Fire Fang Dog.

Since Fire Fang Dog got tired of playing the game in the Beast Tamer Manual, it hadn't gone back in.

This time, Zhan Wei wanted to let it go back in, but it showed some resistance.

It preferred staying outside rather than going back into the Manual.

"Bark."

Fire Fang Dog shook its head, indicating that it didn't want to go in.

Zhan Wei felt a bit helpless. The school didn't explicitly forbid bringing pets, but it would be too conspicuous to leave Fire Fang Dog outside when no one else had contracted pets yet.

Zhan Wei didn't want to attract attention.

"If you come in, I'll buy you Red Cinnabar Fruits to eat when we come back," Zhan Wei tempted.

Fire Fang Dog arrogantly turned its head to the side.

It didn't want to.
