Chapter 37

No wonder he dared to contract a fire-type spirit beast as his first one and even trained the Fire Fang Dog to be so obedient. Bai Yunmiao calmly glanced at the Fire Fang Dog beside him.

"Why are you still taking the entrance exam? A genius like you should be admitted directly," Bai Yunmiao asked.

"Are you mistaken about geniuses?" Zhan Wei said helplessly.

Which genius had to worry about whether they could pass the minimum score for the entrance exam?

Bai Yunmiao thought he was being modest and asked, "Which school are you planning to take the exam for?"

Zhan Wei replied, "Shengshui High School"

Bai Yunmiao looked at him with an expression that said, "I knew it."

Zhan Wei couldn't be bothered to explain how bad his grades were and thought that time was precious, so he bid farewell and said, "I have to go home and study, so I'll leave now."

As Zhan Wei turned around, Bai Yunmiao grabbed him and said with grievances, "Genius, you haven't told me your name yet."

Zhan Wei: "..."

...

...

On the bus ride home, Spark was still enjoying the scenery outside the window, while Zhan Wei took out his phone to save Bai Yunmiao's name.

When he opened the messaging app, he noticed a conspicuous red number "99+" in the upper right corner.

Zhan Wei was startled and opened it to check.

Classmates whom he usually didn't contact were sending messages asking him what happened.

In the eyes of his classmates, he must have encountered something major after taking such a long break before the final exam.

Zhan Wei felt touched and replied to each of them, saying that he was fine.

After feeling touched, he saw a message from his mother, which was sent two hours ago.

[When is the special admission time for Zanggang No. 6 Divine Beast Middle School? I'll call the teacher to ask for leave for you.]

Zhan Wei became anxious and quickly dialed the phone.

The call was answered in a moment.

"Mom, did you call the teacher?" Zhan Wei felt a little guilty.

"I did."

"Mom, actually, I..."

"But the call didn't go through."

Zhan Wei immediately gave up on what he was about to say.

"What were you going to say?" his mother asked.

"I actually want to take the entrance exam for Shengshui Middle School," Zhan Wei changed the subject.

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment. "Did the special admission times of the two schools conflict?" his mother asked.

"No, Zanggang No. 6 Divine Beast Middle School is on June 9th, and Shengshui Middle School is on June 10th, a day apart," Zhan Wei replied.

"Well, then, why not go to both?" his mother said.

In the beginning, Li Xiangting didn't inquire about the special admission time for Shengshui Middle School because she didn't pay attention.

That day, she couldn't bear to see the expressions of the school teachers and that woman any longer, so she impulsively wanted her son to apply for the special admission of Shengshui Middle School.

After a couple of days, when she regained her composure, she also realized that there was a 99.99% chance her son wouldn't be able to pass the exam for Shengshui Middle School, so she didn't bring up the matter in front of her son again.

But her son clearly still had Shengshui Middle School on his mind, and since it was brought up by him in the first place, there was nothing she could do.

Li Xiangting was now relieved that the special admission time for Zanggang No. 6 Divine Beast Middle School was before that of Shengshui Middle School. Otherwise, if Shengshui Middle School's exam was held first and it affected her son's state of mind when taking the exam for Zanggang No. 6 Divine Beast Middle School the next day, it wouldn't be good.

"Mom, please don't make the call. I have already asked for leave from the class teacher," Zhan Wei instructed.

"Oh, I see," Li Xiangting replied.

Since she had made the call, she had no intention of making another one. If it weren't for her son, she wouldn't want to have anything to do with these teachers.

Zhan Wei hung up the phone and quickly found the phone number of the class teacher and dialed it.

He didn't want the class teacher to see his mother's missed call and call back.

No one answered the phone.

Zhan Wei kept dialing, but after five consecutive unanswered calls, it changed from no one answering to "the number you dialed is turned off."

There was no other way, so Zhan Wei sent a text message and gave up.

Spark kept looking out the window with his head raised.

Zhan Wei followed his gaze.

In the sky hundreds of meters high, a advertising airship with a size of about 30 meters by 19 meters was slowly moving forward with a television screen.

This kind of airship could be seen occasionally when pedestrians looked up. The news and events played on it were the latest hot topics.

The television screen outside the airship was currently showing an interview about the Interstellar Cup.

"What are your thoughts on your next opponent?" one of the reporters asked.

"Bobby DeLay is an outstanding beast tamer. His tactics and combinations are diverse, especially in the 24-into-22 match. His Earth Gloomhound and Double-Headed Serpent Dragon combo moves are breathtaking. I believe you all have seen it," the person answering was Lin Ya, the man Zhan Wei saw in the center of the mall last time with the giant toad.

"This is your third participation in the Interstellar Cup. In the previous two editions, you stopped at the top ten. Do you have confidence in achieving better results this time?" the reporter continued to ask.

"We are all top beast tamers in the interstellar. I don't have confidence," Lin Ya laughed.

The interviewing reporters were surprised by his response.

"But I will work hard," Lin Ya continued.
