Water World Beast Taming: My Pets Can Evolve Infinitely

Chapter 92: The Written Examination Begins (4000 words, please subscribe)

In the previous life, the college entrance examination was a major event in the lives of all students.

In this life, the college entrance examination is a major event that attracts nationwide attention, and the level of attention and the number of people involved are more than ten times that of the previous life!

Because in the previous life, the college entrance examination only tested knowledge and changed only a portion of people's destinies.

But in this life, the college entrance examination will not only change his own destiny, but also the city, the country, and even the destiny of the entire human race!

It is not only a competition of knowledge and cultivation, but also the most direct presentation and competition of a country's national strength among its younger generation!

In this extraordinary aquatic world teeming with marine life, force is undoubtedly the most important thing for individuals and nations, without exception!

Students who excel in the college entrance examination and stand out from the crowd will become rising stars in the world of beast taming, pillars of the nation, and shoulder the heavy responsibility of protecting the country and safeguarding the human race!

In this way, those who excel in the college entrance examination will receive key support and cultivation from the government and the country.

At Ningshui Town Beast Taming Academy, 200 senior high school students gathered at the school's dock early in the morning and boarded a ship together.

The entire college entrance examination consists of three parts: written examination, level examination, and practical examination.

The written test is simply taking a test paper.

The assessment covers the knowledge points taught in the textbook, some basic geographical and biological knowledge, common marine mammal attributes and skills, and the identification and harvesting of common spiritual plants.

These points of knowledge are indeed very important; otherwise, it would be quite disappointing if you didn't recognize some precious spiritual plants when they appeared in front of you.

Or you might encounter some rare sea monsters that you don't recognize, and you don't know their strengths, weaknesses, or fighting style, which would put you at a huge disadvantage in the battle.

The written test is relatively easy; the entire paper is out of 150 points, and you only need to pass to pass.

The level assessment involves students revealing their Beastmaster level and pet level, which the examiners then register and record. This is the simplest level.

Each university has different admission criteria for student grades; this is to facilitate student admission.

The third practical assessment is similar to Jiang Chen's practical training in the Nanhu Undersea Grassland last year. Students are asked to hunt some sea beasts and spiritual plants. Each type of sea beast and spiritual plant will be counted as points, which will be used to determine the ranking.

However, you can't team up for the college entrance exam; you can only hunt individually.

All three stages are elimination-based; if you fail a stage, you don't need to participate in the later ones.

The school ship is heading towards Fuzhou. Today, they will take the first test of the college entrance examination: the written test.

The 200 students on the ship were clearly tense today, their faces strained, a far cry from their usual relaxed and lively demeanor.

Jiang Chen sat in his seat and looked at Nangong Yan. He saw that the guy looked radiant and full of confidence.

"You've broken through?" Jiang Chen asked with a smile.

"Of course!" Nangong Yan said with a chuckle.

If a beast tamer doesn't display their strength, it's difficult for other beast tamers to see their level and cultivation, and the same applies to their pets.

However, some experienced beast tamers can judge a beast's cultivation level and skill proficiency by its appearance.

There are also some reconnaissance skills that allow you to directly view the data and attributes of the Beastmaster and the Beast.

In addition, high-level beast tamers can also use special methods to directly see through the level of low-level beast tamers.

For example, a few days ago, Jian Qingqiu was able to tell Chu Yun's level and skills at a glance.

After listening to Nangong Yan's words, Jiang Chen nodded silently.

Yes, this kid has really had a second spring in his life.

Jiang Chen sat in his seat and glanced around, looking at the top-ranked students in the grade.

Geng Ben looked to be in good spirits and was resting with his eyes closed.

Shi Shan's face was full of fighting spirit, and her eyes burned fiercely.

Zhang Caiying, a classmate, was also full of fighting spirit, looking determined to win.

Jiang Chen smiled. It seemed that he wasn't the only one who had been working hard to cultivate for the past six months; everyone else had been doing the same.

That's right. When it comes to such a major life event as the college entrance examination, if not now, when?

Jiang Chen turned his gaze back to Nangong Yan: "Xiao Yan, it's not that I'm criticizing you, but I remember you don't pay much attention in class, and your written tests often hover around the passing mark. You absolutely mustn't be eliminated in the first round of assessments."

"ah???"

Upon hearing Jiang Chen's words, Nangong Yan, whose face had been flushed, froze instantly!

His forehead was instantly covered in hot sweat, and his legs trembled slightly.

"Chen... Brother Chen, I remember our homeroom teacher saying that the college entrance exam wouldn't be too difficult. I shouldn't be that unlucky, right?"

"That's not necessarily true. Wasn't the written exam quite difficult the year before last? It eliminated a lot of candidates right from the first round."

Nangong Yan felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten rat droppings!

For the past six months, he hasn't even read any erotic novels; he's just been focusing all his energy on cultivating like crazy. He finally broke through to become a professional beast tamer, and his tentacle shrimp also broke through to the elite level.

It would be such a shame to fail the first written test...

"We still have over an hour to go to Rongcheng, I suggest we do some more practice questions," Jiang Chen said with a smile.

"Whoosh! One set isn't enough, I want two!"

"Scrib it right now!" Nangong Yan was clearly flustered. Without saying a word, he took out the mock exam questions from his bag and started writing furiously, his beady eyes fixed on the mock exam paper.

He has to pass this first test, or he'll make a huge fool of himself!

Jiang Chen smiled and shook his head. He also checked his own candidate information and exam tools. After confirming that everything was correct, he casually took out a book called "Complete Encyclopedia of Common Sea Animals" and started flipping through it.

"Buzz!"

"Beep beep!"

Just as the school ship was halfway through its journey, a line of steel warships suddenly appeared in the direction of Rongcheng.

The atmosphere on board was heavy. The soldiers were fully equipped and ready to go. They sped past the school ship, heading towards the horizon. The ship's shadow quickly disappeared, leaving only a trail of desolate waves.

Jiang Chen's expression turned serious. Looking in this direction, the warships were rushing to the aid of the front line, the "Underwater Great Wall"!

As soon as the warships passed by, the previously silent students couldn't help but start discussing among themselves.

"Is another war about to break out?"

"Don't you know? The Red Skull Devil Fangfish army is advancing again!"

"My comrade at the front said that the Red Skull Devil Fangfish army is coming on strong this time, and I'm afraid they're really going to attack our Dragon Kingdom!"

"No way? It dares?"

"That's not necessarily true. My second uncle sent a message back from the front lines a couple of days ago, and he mentioned the same thing!"

"I hate war..."

Jiang Chen listened silently to the surrounding discussions, his brows furrowing as well.

Nangong Yan, who was working on the exam questions, was also shocked. He quickly looked up and realized that his father was on the front lines!

Besides the upcoming college entrance examination, another major event lately is the influx of Red Skull Devil Fangfish.

Last winter, heavy snow blocked the sea, and the army of Red Skull Devil Fangfish was already showing signs of retreating.

The following spring, the glacier melted, and the Red Skull Devil Fangfish clan remained silent.

Just when everyone thought the war was about to stop, unexpectedly, the Red Skull Devil Fangfish army started to stir again in the past month!

The army of devil fangfish continued its advance, reaching within ten kilometers of the Dragon Kingdom's border!

The situation on the front lines immediately became tense and anxious again!

Jiang Chen sighed softly and shook his head silently.

That level of warfare is beyond the reach of a mere professional beast tamer like him. What he needs to do now is to achieve good results in the college entrance examination; that's the most important thing!

Jiang Chen let Nangong Yan continue practicing his problems, clearing his mind of distractions and refocusing his attention on the books in front of him.

The students' discussions on the ship, after a brief period of intense activity, gradually quieted down as well.

Time flowed slowly, and we finally arrived in Fuzhou.

With the National College Entrance Examination approaching, the entire city of Rongcheng is under martial law, with a large number of beast-taming troops patrolling the streets to maintain order.

The docks were also filled with police officers and soldiers, receiving candidates from other towns. The entire city of Fuzhou was busy but not chaotic.

Both the first and second rounds of assessments will be held in Rongcheng City, so candidates from all the towns under Rongcheng City gather here, making the city incredibly lively.

Two hundred students, teachers, and leaders from Ningshui Town, led by examiners from Rongcheng, slowly made their way through the bustling crowd to a school.

The school had already been cleared out and was being used as a venue for the college entrance examination.

To prepare for this year's college entrance examination, the Rongcheng municipal government requisitioned more than a dozen primary and secondary schools, which was more than enough to meet the needs of the exam.

"Everyone, come here to pick up your exam cards. First, go and find your exam class and seats."

"The first written test will start promptly at 9 o'clock. Everyone, please do not be late, otherwise your test qualification will be invalidated, understand?" Gao Hong said loudly to everyone.

"clear!"

"Okay, go ahead!"

Jiang Chen and Nangong Yan were not in the same examination room, so they separated after taking their examination cards.

Jiang Chen went to the restroom and then went to wait near the examination room.

Jiang Chen quickly entered the examination room. At 9 o'clock sharp, the invigilator distributed the test questions.

Jiang Chen took the test paper, checked it once, and began to answer the questions after confirming that there were no errors.

Question 1: Please list some sea creatures with rare attributes.

This question is easy, isn't it a free point?

"Light-attribute Turritopsis dohrnii, Undead-attribute Red Skull Devil Fang, Space-attribute Array Fish, Dragon-attribute Water Azure Dragon..."

……

Question 10: "I envy not the immortals, but only the lovebirds; the flames of war will not diminish my youthful years." Is this line of poetry correct?

Sigh, another easy question!

Jiang Chen gritted his teeth and wrote furiously: "Wrong, terribly wrong!"

"Mandarin ducks are not traditional monogamous birds. During the breeding season, male mandarin ducks will court multiple females, and there will also be instances of multiple males courting the same female. Occasionally, even homosexual relationships will occur!"

"After a successful courtship, the male and female mandarin ducks will indeed often be together, and the male mandarin duck will also be responsible for finding and renovating the nest."

"But once the female mandarin duck lays her eggs, the responsibility of incubation and raising the chicks falls entirely on her. The male mandarin duck will immediately go to find the next female mandarin duck, or quietly change into a gray coat and disappear."

"The male mandarin duck is a complete scumbag. Using mandarin ducks to symbolize human fidelity in love is just wishful thinking on the part of humans!"

……

Question 20: Whenever the mantis crab encounters danger, it immediately carries its mate and runs away. Is the mantis crab a model of a good husband?

Answer: Wrong!

"Mantouxie is not a model of a good man; on the contrary, he's a complete scumbag!"

"Because he's not holding his own wife, but someone else's!"

"And it doesn't just hug you when there's danger; it hugs you even when there isn't!"

"That wasn't a hug either; it was a forced 'wall slam' against the female crab, using its size advantage!"

"If this happened in human society, I think it would be a very serious crime, at least a three-year sentence!"

……

Jiang Chen quickly worked through the questions, one after another, until only a few challenging questions remained.

Jiang Chen's heart skipped a beat when he saw the question.

The person who posed this question clearly had a deeper purpose!

"The Red Skull Devil Fangfish sea tribe has repeatedly provoked our southern border and violated our dignity, but our country has always adopted a defensive strategy. Many people call our Dragon Kingdom cowards. Is this statement true?"

Jiang Chen took a deep breath, then picked up his pen and slowly wrote: "No."

"The competition between nations and ethnic groups has never been about words, but about hard power."

"The Southern Wilderness Sea is vast and deep, inhabited by countless sea creatures."

"Although the sea creatures follow the strategy of the strong preying on the weak and the survival of the fittest, and often fight each other, they are not a disorganized bunch that can be manipulated by the outside world."

"The Southern Wilderness Sea Alliance is a community built by many powerful sea creatures, and they maintain the basic order of the Southern Wilderness Sea."

"The Southern Wilderness Sea Alliance is mainly governed by four powerful sea clans: the Red Skull Devil Fang Fish clan, the King Kong Fish clan, the Dragon Head Eel clan, and the Azure Water Asura clan."

"These four sea tribes advance and retreat together, and are the most prominent rulers of the Southern Wilderness Sea."

"The Dragon Kingdom is naturally not afraid of the Red Skull Devil Fangfish clan, but if the Dragon Kingdom declares war on the Red Skull Devil Fangfish, the other three sea clans will certainly not stand idly by, and the Dragon Kingdom will then be placed in an extremely embarrassing situation!"

"Only by continuously developing and strengthening its own power, and until one day having absolute dominance over the Southern Wilderness Sea Alliance, will the Red Skull Demon Fangfish clan dare not continue to provoke us. This is the fundamental way..."

Jiang Chen wrote several hundred words in one go. After he finished writing, steam rose from his forehead, and a thin layer of sweat had formed on his forehead.

Jiang Chen wiped his hands with the back of his hand and then continued to look at the next question, which was the last question on the test paper.

Upon seeing the question, Jiang Chen froze, wiping the sweat from his hand!

"What is the most effective method for the Dragon Kingdom to completely annihilate the Red Skull Devil Fangfish clan?"

Jiang Chen: "..."

Damn, who created this exam paper?

This is clearly stirring up trouble!

(These two little-known facts about mandarin ducks and bread crabs are true, everyone should learn them quickly. I'll insert a picture of bread crabs in a bit.)
