The next day, everyone in the special training class headed to the school's Beast Taming Hall for today's class competition.
Shen Wushuang glanced at the class and immediately noticed three people were missing.
"Everyone, please quiet down, and wait for me for a moment!"
At this moment, in Dorm 102,
Chen Shu and the other two were sound asleep, showing no signs of waking up. This was typical post-holiday syndrome.
Chen Shu felt a slightly slimy sensation on his face, as if something was licking him.
"Hehehe..."
He let out his signature mischievous laugh, and suddenly his nose twitched.
"Hm? Why does it smell so fishy?"
Chen Shu rubbed his eyes and forced them open, looking to his side.
He saw a terrifying snake head repeatedly flicking its tongue, licking his face.
Seeing Chen Shu wake up, the giant snake grinned even wider, as if it were laughing.
"Holy hell!"
Chen Shu roared, his mind instantly clearing. His Slime was summoned immediately and sat directly on the giant snake.
The other two were also startled awake by Chen Shu's roar. Their eyes contracted as they looked at the giant snake in the dorm, which was at least ten meters long.
"Quite quick!"
Shen Wushuang stood on the balcony, looking towards the three people in the dorm.
A hint of surprise flickered in his eyes. He hadn't expected Chen Shu's reaction to be so fast.
If it were any other student, they would have at least been flustered, if not cried, but who would immediately fight like Chen Shu?
Shen Wushuang raised an eyebrow, looked at the three, and said, "How long are you three planning to sleep?"
The three reluctantly got up, ready to wash up and head to the Beast Taming Hall.
Seeing the three in identical hospital gowns, Shen Wushuang's mouth twitched as he surveyed the room.
"Is this really a middle school dorm?"
Fifteen minutes later,
The four arrived at the Beast Taming Hall, where many people looked their way.
Shen Wushuang walked to the front and announced, "Today's beast taming competition officially begins!"
Everyone was eager, with a spark of excitement in their eyes, wanting to prove themselves.
Although they were beast tamers, they didn't have many opportunities to battle. The first and second years mainly focused on building a foundation.
Now, in the third year, practical combat training was necessary.
The cultural subjects of the college entrance examination were similar to their regular exams, but for beast taming, it involved practical combat.
The country had invested a large amount of educational resources with the goal of cultivating beast tamers who were truly proficient in combat.
Chen Shu and the other two stood at the back, holding their soy milk and not listening to anything Shen Wushuang was saying.
"First match, Chen Shu versus Sun Ziyang!"
Chen Shu, who was having breakfast, blinked in surprise. "It's me in the first match?"
He walked to the bottom of the competition stage. To prevent students from encountering unexpected situations, the students themselves would not go on stage; the focus was on the strength of their contracted spirits.
Chen Shu raised an eyebrow. "Oh? Is it you, little fatty?"
Sun Ziyang looked displeased and didn't say much, summoning his contracted spirit.
A contracted spirit that looked neither like a wolf nor a leopard appeared on stage. Its eyes were sharp, and its four sharp claws gleamed with golden light, clearly indicating it was not to be trifled with.
"B-grade Golden Claw Beast?"
Many people looked on, paying attention to the first match. The classmates in the class were rivals, so naturally, they wanted to understand each other's strength.
The Golden Claw Beast was swift in its movements and possessed extremely strong offensive power, making it a relatively perfect contracted spirit.
"Summon your contracted spirit."
Sun Ziyang's eyes were filled with fighting spirit. Since the teacher said that with ability, one could do as they pleased,
He intended to act as he pleased today.
"Are you in a hurry to reincarnate?"
Chen Shu glanced at him, took a bite of his fried dough stick, and summoned his Golden Slime.
"An F-grade contracted spirit? This guy made it into the special training class? Isn't the caliber too low?"
Du Long frowned. He was a transfer student and naturally didn't understand the situation from the final exams.
"Brother Long, this Slime isn't simple."
Someone explained to him, recounting the Slime's excellent performance at the time, especially its defense.
"Oh? A level seven contracted spirit?"
Tang Lie, standing below, frowned. He hadn't expected Chen Shu to be a level seven beast tamer.
Even after the summer break, there weren't many level seven beast tamers in the class.
Sun Ziyang also looked serious. He was only a level six beast tamer, meaning he would have to fight against a higher-level opponent.
Someone asked curiously, "By the way, why doesn't this Slime have eyes?"
"Hoo hoo hoo..." The Slime made sounds of deep sleep, and a large bubble of snot blew from its mouth.
"You're actually looking down on me!"
Sun Ziyang's expression turned angry, and he shouted, "Go! Golden Claw Beast!"
The Golden Claw Beast suddenly pushed off with its hind legs and lunged, appearing full of momentum!
In contrast, the Slime remained sound asleep, completely ignoring it.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The Golden Claw Beast's sharp claws wildly slashed at the Slime.
Blood splattered from the Slime's body, creating a scene that looked extremely brutal.
"Such strong attacks! Such high attack speed!"
Someone below exclaimed, impressed by the Golden Claw Beast's might, finding it mesmerizing.
"Pfft."
Chen Shu couldn't help but chuckle, unable to hold back his laughter.
Someone asked, "Your Slime is already injured, and you can still smile?"
"Well, classmate, let me remind you, Slime blood is colorless."
As soon as he said that, everyone's eyes widened, and they looked at the red blood on the competition stage.
It seemed the Golden Claw Beast was bleeding.
The gazes of others then turned to Sun Ziyang.
He gritted his teeth, cold sweat beading on his forehead, but he still didn't give up.
"The Golden Claw Beast's attack power is immense, how could it not break through the defense?!"
"And why is my contracted spirit constantly getting injured?!"
Chen Shu ate his breakfast with a relaxed expression. The Slime's strength was inherently powerful; it was by no means an ordinary F-grade contracted spirit.
It was just that it had consistently encountered powerful enemies.
Now, facing a level six contracted spirit, wasn't it a piece of cake?
Chen Shu grinned and asked, "Had enough fun?"
As soon as his words fell, the Slime's eyes snapped open, trying its best to look ferocious, but it still looked adorable no matter how you looked at it.
The Charge skill was ferociously activated!
"Bang!"
The Golden Claw Beast, eager to attack, was instantly sent flying, its body tracing a perfect parabolic arc before it crashed heavily off the stage.
"Chen Shu wins!"
Shen Wushuang announced, sighing inwardly. He hadn't expected Sun Ziyang to be so incompetent.
He couldn't even break through the Slime's defense, and the Golden Claw Beast was suffering from the impact force, yet he still kept attacking.
"A student like this would basically be giving their life away if they entered an alien dimension."
Chen Shu raised an eyebrow, a mischievous grin on his face. "Grandson! You're no good!"
"My name is Sun Ziyang." The little fatty clenched his fists, clearly enraged.
"Oh! Grandson! Raising you? No good!"
"You truly are a genius at misinterpreting sentences."
