In just a short seven days, expecting rapid progress was clearly unrealistic.
However, surprisingly, despite the limited time, the difference in progress among the three little ones was obvious and significant.
Let's talk about Bud first. This little guy, relying on his extraordinary comprehension ability, was far ahead of the other two.
Now, he is already able to cast a 0.9x power Sword of Life without triggering Rejuvenation!
However, although Bud performed well in this aspect, he still has huge room for improvement in controlling energy diversion.
Looking at Yuan Wang, his improvement in the strength of his group has always maintained a stable and orderly pace.
It is especially worth mentioning that when Mind Emperor's equipment was replaced, the precious seeds—nutritious fruits—obtained from Mind Emperor, plus the star peach, and then utilizing Yuan Wang's unique Catalysis Skill, made the overall improvement speed remarkably fast.
However, because the gap between the next stage and the Grandmaster level is like an unbridgeable chasm, more time will be needed to truly achieve the goal.
Finally, let's talk about Qing Yan. This guy's situation was truly unexpected; it could be said there was no progress at all.
According to Li Wen's initial idea, Qing Yan should have been extremely curious about new Skills.
After all, he harbored the grand ambition of “becoming a rich man and eating all over the world.”
But the reality was completely different. He seemed to have found another way to achieve his dream—running to Yuan Wang to “mooch meals”!
It must be said, Qing Yan's thought process was truly unique.
Regardless of the types of these things, in terms of quantity, they were absolutely sufficient to fill his stomach.
Yuan Wang joined the team relatively late, but this did not affect his treating Bud and Qing Yan like children deep down.
Because of this, he often chose to let Qing Yan's occasional mischievous behavior go unchecked, without much restraint.
As for Li Wen, he was even more casual and carefree, even to the point of being too lazy to bother with such matters.
After all, in his opinion, if his own pet beast could achieve its wishes or dreams through some special means, then he would be very happy to see such a scene happen.
Even if this method seemed a bit strange and bizarre, as long as Bud taught him a lesson, Qing Yan would naturally become well-behaved... Aside from these daily chores, today was a crucial day for many students—checking their College Entrance Examination scores!
And for Li Wen, it was even more significant.
He not only achieved a remarkable perfect score in the previous mock exams but also secured his future with two excellent papers.
Logically, being recommended to his ideal university should have been a sure thing, but after all, the College Entrance Examination is a major exam that every student cannot ignore. Even with full confidence, Li Wen still inevitably felt some nervousness and anticipation.
So, at the first hint of dawn, Li Wen eagerly left home.
Even though there was a convenient computer at home, he specifically chose to go to an internet cafe. If you ask why, in his words:
“Not showing off when you have the chance is like wearing fine clothes at night.”
Clearly, he was determined to show off to the “big brothers” in the crowded internet cafe, let them see what true style was, and experience the Li family's shock.
Upon arriving at the internet cafe, Li Wen skillfully pulled out his ID card and quickly completed the login procedures.
Everything was ready; now the only thing to do was patiently wait for the time to check the scores.
However, this waiting period was truly difficult. Out of boredom, Li Wen hit it off with the guy at the next table and started an exciting game of “Pet Beast Auto Chess.”
Time flew by in the fierce game. Unconsciously, forty minutes passed.
Just as the two were engrossed in the game, the guy at the next table suddenly came to his senses and asked with a puzzled expression:
“Brother, didn't you say you came to check your scores? Why are you starting a new game now?” Li Wen looked up at the time in the bottom right corner of the screen when he heard this. Indeed, it was already ten o'clock sharp!
But at this moment, he was so immersed in the fun of the game that he couldn't extricate himself, so he casually replied:
“It's fine. I'll just go for an empty city this round. I'll check my scores first.”
After saying that, he reluctantly put down the mouse, took a deep breath, and with a nervous heart, clicked on the score inquiry webpage... It would certainly be a lie to say he wasn't nervous at all about such a once-in-a-lifetime major event.
Li Wen gripped the mouse tightly, his palms slightly sweating. He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, but his pounding heart refused to settle.
Finally, with trembling hands and an extremely uneasy feeling, he slowly entered his examination admission number.
He carefully covered half of the screen with one hand, as if this could slightly alleviate his inner anxiety.
His eyes wide, he stared intently at the screen, anxiously waiting for the fate-deciding numbers to appear.
Finally, the first number slowly emerged: 5. Li Wen's heart pounded even more violently, and his hands began to tremble uncontrollably.
Then, he slowly slid the mouse to the left, not daring to blink, for fear of missing any crucial number.
As the second number was about to reveal itself, Li Wen felt like he couldn't breathe.
Suddenly, a “+” sign displayed on the screen instantly stunned Li Wen. He gaped in astonishment, his hand shot back as if electrocuted, and his mind went blank.
After a long while, Li Wen came to his senses and looked closely. It turned out the score was “197+5.”
The prominent number 5 following the plus sign represented the bonus points from the Beginner Breeder certificate.
It should be known that anyone is eligible to apply for this certificate, but for them, who are currently only high school students, the thesis requirements are simply too advanced.
Therefore, this part of the content will not be included in the total score, but it can secure valuable recommendation slots for the holder.
Just then, the guy who had been watching Li Wen's every move could no longer suppress his curiosity. He instinctively leaned forward to glance at the screen and then exclaimed in surprise:
“Holy cow! No way, brother, are you the top scorer in the College Entrance Examination?!”
This shout was like a stone stirring a thousand ripples. It not only completely stunned Li Wen himself, but also attracted other internet users nearby. Everyone's gaze converged on the computer screen in front of Li Wen.
