Beast Tamer: Super Lucky Starting Contract

As Shi Zhengqing said, it is not difficult to pass the assessment of cultural subjects. It is mainly a formality. Even if you randomly grab a high school student, there is a high probability that he will pass.

But there are always weirdos. Only 98% of people passed such a simple test. I wonder if the other 2% were sleepwalking.

Mo Xu estimated that his average score in the two subjects was about 60 or 61 points, which was average and not a drag. This thing was all about points being great, and points being a waste.

After a whole day of taking exams, even though the questions were easy, Mo Xu still felt a little dizzy. Just as he was about to go home and rest, he received a phone call.

"Ayao?" Mo Xu looked at the caller ID and answered the phone.

"Brother Xu, where are you?"

"I'm outside the school. What? Are you back?"

"Well, the baptism is over. We will arrive in the city this afternoon. Let's have dinner together in the evening?"

"Okay, then let's go eat some clay pot porridge. We haven't eaten it for a long time." Mo Xu and Li Shiyao hadn't seen each other for many days. Since their good friend invited them, it was a good opportunity for them to have a meal together, so they naturally agreed.

"Okay, send me the location."

After hanging up the phone, Mo Xu found a clay pot porridge restaurant in the city center, sent the address, then called a car and rushed to the store.

The assessment gave a lot of high school students a holiday, so many restaurants were packed. Even a "less popular" clay pot porridge restaurant had several tables lined up.

Not long after, when the line came up, Li Shiyao also arrived. Mo Xu waved to his friend and said, "Come in and sit down and chat."

After the two met up, they entered the store and each ordered a seafood porridge and a beef porridge. After releasing the monster and sitting down, they began to exchange pleasantries.

The last time they met, Silver Moon Wolf was a mid-level transcendent, and Xiu Xiu was not even a primary-level transcendent, so he was considered Xiu Xiu's predecessor. But now their positions have changed.

Li Shiyao looked at Xiu Xiu in surprise: "Your lucky clover has grown so big, it must have improved a lot, right?"

Xiu Xiu heard Li Shiyao's praise and nodded vigorously, expressing her strong agreement: "Sister Shiyao has good taste!"

Mo Xu also smiled: "It is indeed a significant improvement. Where is your Silver Moon Wolf?"

Talking about her child, Li Shiyao's tone was very gratified, and she spoke more frequently: "My little Yueyue is also doing well. She is now 350. After absorbing all the rewards from the baptism, I think she can increase a little bit. The goal my master set for me was to increase by more than 60 in the first month, which is considered to be exceeded. By the end of next month, maybe she will touch the threshold of high-level extraordinary!"

"Sure." Mo Xu also glanced at the Silver Moon Wolf. The wolf cub had indeed gained some weight.

In fact, for a newly awakened person, Silver Moon Wolf's improvement is really good, and it has increased by 100 in the first month. At this rate, he will definitely have a good ranking in the next unified examination. After all, not everyone can encounter such a great opportunity like Xiu Xiu.

Speaking of baptism, Mo Xu asked, "What exactly is this baptism like?"

"It seems there is nothing special. On the first day, we visited a museum, then took a few days of history and military theory classes, and then had a few days of military training. It was quite strict, but the rewards were good."

"Museum?" Mo Xu's thoughts flashed. The museum was full of antiques and cultural relics. Could it be related to history?

"Is there anything else special?" he asked again.

“That’s all,” Li Shiyao added, “But if you have a chance, you should go. We’ll give you extra credits after we finish.”

"Yeah." Mo Xu agreed, but not for the credits, but because he suspected that this baptism museum also had some connection with those strange histories.

As they were talking, the casserole porridge was served. They temporarily stopped chatting and each served a bowl for themselves and the monster.

Li Shiyao brought the bowl to Little Wolf and said, "By the way, Brother Xu, tomorrow is the quasi-beastmaster assessment. Are you interested in going to take a look?"

"Hmm? Assessment?" Mo Xu's expression was a little strange: "This..."

"Yes, classes haven't resumed yet, so why not take a look?"

Mo Xu said nothing, took something out of his pocket, put it on the dining table and passed it over.

“What?” Li Shiyao didn’t understand what he meant. After seeing it clearly, she couldn’t hide her surprise and covered her mouth to prevent herself from screaming out loud.

She calmed down a bit and immediately asked three questions: "Admission ticket? What's going on? Brother Xu, are you taking the exam this time?"

"Yes, it's a long story..."

While drinking porridge, Mo Xu told Li Shiyao about the secret realm, and his words were similar to what he said to Cha Chuan.

Upon hearing that Mo Xu had reached a high-level extraordinary level and could even fight against spirit-level monsters, Li Shiyao was happy for Mo Xu. She had thought that Mo Xu would have a difficult start, but the reality turned out to be too harsh.

There were also some different emotions on the other side. In the blink of an eye, this person instantly turned from a classmate into a senior, and the gap between them became wider and wider.

She picked up Mo Xu's admission ticket and looked at it carefully: "Military 8D-9, is it in the military area? Brother Xu, I will go to see you take the test tomorrow."

"Come on, watch me make it all the way to the ranking tournament."

Li Shiyao listened to Mo Xu's confident words without questioning and immediately agreed: "Okay."

-

After the cultural courses, the real test came as scheduled. Yesterday’s session was an examination room, and today’s session could be more appropriately called a battlefield.

After gathering at the designated location of the school, different vehicles will take the candidates to different competition venues.

Some competition venues are inside the school's zoo, and some are in various large and small competition halls. For high-level extraordinary quasi-beastmasters like Mo Xu who were recruited after being called up by the association, their assessments are arranged by the military region and the venues are all inside the military region.

Mo Xu got on a military truck. Many candidates were already sitting in the back compartment, but the association had laid out cushions in advance so as not to let down these flowers of the motherland.

After about 40 people were loaded into the trunk, a soldier came over and lifted up the rear fender, and the truck began to drive slowly towards the military area.

The carriage was full of young boys and girls, and soon it became noisy.

After some conversation, they all knew that the people in the car were all "colleagues" who had not reached the spiritual level, so they chatted more enthusiastically. Some asked each other about their spiritual power values, some encouraged each other to get good results, and some who had already participated in the assessment shared their experiences.

A man next to Mo Xu started chatting with him: "Brother, you look quite young. Which class are you from?"

"Me?" Mo Xu thought for a moment and said, "I am a fresh graduate."

"That shouldn't be the case. Even if fresh graduates haven't reached the spiritual level, they are not in the military district. We are all make-up applicants, right?" However, the man soon stopped dwelling on this and said with emotion, "Fresh graduates are good. I've taken the exam for two years, and my family is in debt. If I don't pass this time, I may have to find a job in an expedition team."

There was a broken light in the man's eyes, and Mo Xu didn't know how to comfort him.

But the man quickly laughed at himself and turned around and said, "This is your first time participating, right? You are the last one who has not reached the spiritual level. Let me give you a little advice."

"Hmm? Please go on, big brother." Mo Xu became interested and listened attentively.

The content of the assessment is actually announced in advance on the Internet and in materials released by the school. However, the experience of those candidates who failed the exam often provides more details.

The eldest brother narrated: "I won't tell you what you already know. This test is divided into three parts. You can freely choose the order from easy to difficult. Most people suggest starting from the easy part. But I don't think that's necessarily the case."

"Because we are definitely not aiming for the ranking matches, we can just give up the most difficult match and only need to pass two matches to be adjusted. And we are fighting against a cross-level opponent, we can't outlast the spirit-level monsters, so we might as well put all our efforts into the difficult match at the beginning. As long as we pass it, even if we are injured in the easy match, the chances of passing it are very high."

Mo Xu felt that this elder brother's idea was similar to "Tian Ji's Horse Racing", but it was of little use to him because he was determined to win all three games.

"I see. Thanks for the heads up, big brother."

The eldest brother looked disappointed and said, "Let's work together. I hope you can pass it in one year, and don't waste three years like me."

Amid these people's expectations or anxieties, dozens of military vehicles slowly drove into the military zone.

Several training grounds in the military district were requisitioned and separated into several large areas. Each area was further divided into ten small assessment sites from A to J.

Mo Xu’s Army 8D-9 is the D site in the 8th area, and 9 represents the order of assessment.

Due to the assessment for prospective beastmasters, the military area is temporarily open to the public. Anyone who wants to watch the competition can come in after registering.

Li Shiyao had been waiting at the edge of the venue. When she saw Mo Xu being led over by the invigilator, she stood up and waved.

There were some spectators around Li Shiyao, but not many, mostly relatives and friends of these prospective beastmasters. The military district was the last in line, not getting much attention, unlike the formal examination venues, where in addition to relatives and friends, there were also reporters, TV stations broadcasting live, and Internet celebrities to grab traffic.

Time passed, and soon it was time for the test to begin. The first batch of candidates with sequence number 1 began to enter, summon monsters, and choose the difficulty.

As the selection was completed, a row of assessment mechas entered the venue. Each mecha was a standard anthropomorphic robot, but the core of the chest was flashing with extraordinary light of different colors, and it was inlaid with spirit beads of different properties, making it a special man-made mechanical monster.

Mo Xu picked the one in his own field and checked it with his supernatural powers.

"???"

Rank: Initial Spirit Level

Spiritual power: 1111.2

Attribute: Fire

"Why can't I see the name?" Mo Xu was puzzled and picked a few more nearby to look at, and they were all the same.

However, he also discovered that the spiritual power value of each assessment robot here was indeed set at 1111.2 as stated in the examination materials.

This is because they lack too much spirituality and are roughly 10% weaker than monsters of the same energy, so this value is set.

This was the main course of their quasi-beastmaster assessment, defeating three different mechas.

Three of them also have their own explanations, which are based on the attribute restraint relationship. The easiest one is to choose the attribute that is restrained by the candidate, and the middle difficulty one is the attributes that have no restraint relationship with each other. The most difficult one is naturally the one that restrains the candidate.

For example, the first candidate in Mo Xu's field is a water-attributed monster, so he chooses the easy difficulty as the first round.

Of course, some monsters have attributes that have no restraint relationship, or no restraint relationship, so the assessment robot's spiritual power value will be adjusted up or down by 20% to simulate the restraint effect. However, the minimum cannot be reduced to below 1000, which is a slight disadvantage for some monsters.

As the field assessment robots and examinees took their positions, the invigilators shouted from time to time in different venues: "The first round of the prospective beastmaster assessment begins!"
