Chen Shu!
Just then, Fang Ke walked over with a stern expression.
If you don't know how to do it, just stay put. Why are you flipping through the test paper back and forth!
Isn't this clearly interfering with everyone else's exam?
My hand was cramping severely, but now it's better. Chen Shu propped his head up and fell asleep, as he had already obtained his reward.
Each subject's exam time requires half a day. After two days, the results for the cultural subjects were concluded.
Many students gathered together, discussing and talking amongst themselves.
The questions for this exam were truly difficult, likely intended to select the outstanding students.
Alas, I hope my score in the cultural subjects can reach 320 points.
Yes, the senior high special training class is out of reach for us, but at least we can't perform too poorly.
Chen Shu smiled and said nothing from the side. Typically, top students would smile and say nothing, only to shock everyone when their scores were released.
Alright, everyone, stop discussing!
Fang Ke suddenly entered the classroom and said, "Regardless of the outcome, the exams are over. The key now is the upcoming Beast Taming subject exam. Da Feng Novel Network.
The total score for the cultural subjects is four hundred points, with student scores generally ranging from three hundred and forty to three hundred and eighty points, not a huge difference.
The total score for the Beast Taming subject is three hundred and fifty points. Some students may score less than a hundred, while others can reach two to three hundred points.
This is where the real gap is created.
For the final exam, I hope everyone will abide by the rules and not emulate certain individuals!
Fang Ke glanced at Chen Shu, feeling a sense of apprehension in his heart, fearing that the latter might do something extraordinary again.
After school in the afternoon, Zhang Dali was already waiting outside the classroom.
Zhang Dali's gaze fell upon him, and he said, "Finally, summer vacation has arrived. Chen Pi, are you really going to work for two months?"
The ordinary classes naturally did not have the Beast Taming subject exam, and Zhang Dali was now completely free.
Chen Shu nodded and said, "Of course, I'm too short on money. Do you have any plans for the summer break?"
The two left school together.
Zhang Dali excitedly said, "Of course, I'll be playing games online. I need to reach the King tier in Beast Taming Glory."
By the way, my mom is back, and she invited you to our house for dinner tonight.
Chen Shu readily agreed, without giving it any thought.
Who could refuse a free meal?
Chen Pi, I'll be relying on you in the future!
Zhang Dali suddenly slung an arm around his shoulder and said earnestly, "Brothers, we must never forget each other!"
Chen Shu looked speechless. Can you please stop emphasizing the word "bro," making it sound like I'm a loyal dog?
The two walked back to the neighborhood, laughing.
Chen Shu's parents had a temporary matter to attend to and wouldn't be home for dinner, so the two went directly to Zhang Dali's home.
Mom and Dad, I'm home.
They threw their backpacks down and comfortably sprawled on the sofa.
Chen Shu didn't stand on ceremony, acting as if he were in his own home.
Are the two sons back? A middle-aged woman walked out of the kitchen, a kind smile on her face.
It was Zhang Dali's mother, Xue Yuan.
"Aunt Xue, hello!" Chen Shu stood up and greeted her politely.
Zhang Dali lay lazily, "Mom, where's Dad? I don't see him."
Old Zhang is buying something in the study. You can go take a look.
"Let's not, I don't understand any of it," Zhang Dali said, closing his eyes and slumping on the sofa.
Chen Shu, however, felt a flicker of interest. Zhang Dali's parents were both Black Iron tier Beast Tamers, so the things they bought would likely be related to beast taming.
Without hesitation, he headed towards the study.
"Little Chen is here?"
The robust Zhang Feng was intently watching the computer screen and beckoned Chen Shu to sit beside him.
Chen Shu sat down and was instantly captivated by what was on the screen.
Tianyuan Ginseng, Price: 300,000 Huaxia coins!
Cloud Summit Peak Stone Milk (one liang), Price: 500,000 Huaxia coins!
Level Two Giant Growth Fruit, Price: 100,000 Huaxia coins!
Ice Snow Wolf King's Beast Core, Price: 1,000,000 Huaxia coins!
Chen Shu swallowed his saliva. These things were actually so expensive?
He possessed knowledge of high school beast taming materials and recognized common beast taming resources, but he never imagined they would be this expensive.
He had thought that by being able to concoct some Strength Potions, he would already be considered wealthy.
But now, it seemed that becoming a high-tier Beast Tamer was far from enough.
Zhang Feng smiled and explained, "Little Chen, these items are only used by Black Iron tier Beast Tamers, so naturally, they are a bit pricey."
Beast Tamers below the Black Iron tier are called Apprentice Beast Tamers and do not have the qualifications to know about these things yet.
"Uncle Zhang, what website is this?" Chen Shu asked with curiosity in his eyes.
The items sold here are needed by Beast Tamers, all of them are materials from异空间 (otherworldly dimensions), and they are extremely useful to him.
"It's the Beast Tamer Association Network, established by the country specifically for communication and sales among Beast Tamers," Zhang Feng explained. "When you become a Black Iron tier Beast Tamer, someone will invite you."
Chen Shu sighed. It seemed that Apprentice Beast Tamers knew very little.
No wonder there weren't many otherworldly dimension materials in the physical stores in the city; they were all items used by Apprentice Beast Tamers.
And the rare otherworldly dimension materials were mostly sold on the Beast Tamer Association Network. Besides Beast Tamers, no one else could afford them.
Chen Shu stared blankly as Zhang Feng spent a million Huaxia coins on materials needed by Black Iron tier Beast Tamers.
If it were Silver tier or Gold tier, how much more expensive would the various medicinal herbs be?
"Let's go, Little Chen, time for dinner," Zhang Feng said.
Zhang Feng stretched, closed the computer, and his purchases would arrive in two days.
Smelling the aroma of food wafting from the living room, Zhang Feng's appetite was greatly whetted.
The four of them gathered around the dining table, enjoying a harmonious meal.
"Little Chen, you have your Beast Taming subject exam tomorrow, don't you?" Aunt Xue suddenly said. "If you have a chance to get into the special training class, don't miss it."
"Aunt Xue, you know about the special training class too?" Chen Shu asked.
"Of course. Speaking of which, your Aunt Xue was a member of the first special training class at Nanjiang Second High School," Zhang Feng said with a smile.
"Students who get into prestigious universities mostly come from the special training class," Aunt Xue explained. "The resources provided there will greatly improve your beast taming strength."
The senior high special training class is not unique to Nanjiang Second High School; almost every beast taming school in the country has one, although the resources provided may differ.
In Chen Shu's previous world, senior high was indeed a very important stage that would bring about a comprehensive improvement in students' academic performance.
In this world, it was the same.
For the college entrance examination, every family would spare no effort and pour in all their resources.
Some families would even go into debt, all in the hope that their children could be admitted to their desired beast taming universities.
