Chapter 17: Level Up

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

There were about ten days left before the monthly test. It wasn’t a lot, but it wasn’t a little either, especially for Zhang Xuan, who had plenty of resources.

At this stage, Little Moon was not short of the key materials for her upgrade, moon dew cream and earth spirit essence. With Little Moon’s adaptability to the familiar materials, she could use two boxes of moon dew cream and one earth spirit essence in a dozen days.

Zhang Xuan also temporarily put aside the idea of making moon dew cream from moon dew grass. The most urgent matter now was to deal with the upcoming monthly test. In any case, he had the key materials in his hands, so he was not in a hurry to sell them.

Recently, Little Moon and Zhang Xuan didn’t have much rest. Their schedules were very full. After waking up in the morning, they went to the world of cultivation to train their skills. The more they used a skill, the higher their proficiency. The higher the proficiency, the more powerful the skill would be.

In addition to the increase in the numerical value, it would also be reflected in the awareness and reaction ability of the application level.

During the day, he would train her skills to exhaust all the elements in her body. In the afternoon, they would go to the cultivation center for physical training, then at night, he would apply moon dew cream and train to their limits every day.

In fact, familiars were similar to humans. Breaking through their limits time and time again would allow them to dig out their potential. A body that had undergone crazy training would also greatly increase its ability to absorb familiar materials, allowing the medicinal properties to seep into every hungry and thirsty cell.

After the previous battle, Little Moon had learned a lot and understood her weaknesses. Thus, she didn’t play around and instead trained according to Zhang Xuan’s train of thought.

This made Zhang Xuan, his father, feel really happy. The child had really grown up.

Zhang Xuan didn’t idle around either. In a battle, familiars were the main combat force, while the beastmasters were the mainframe. They needed to make the decisive decision for the battle.

In order to do so, he had to ensure that he had a clear mind, sharp strategic thinking, and the ability to control the timing of the battle. Next, he had to have a strong physique. Beastmasters didn’t need to fight head-on, but at the same time, they had to prevent their opponents from using strange tricks to attack them, forcing their familiars into a passive position and giving them the initiative in the battle.

As such, beastmasters also needed some means to ensure their own safety. For example, Zhang Xuan’s current Qi Gathering level 3 was roughly equivalent to a bronze level 3 familiar. However, he did not have a bloodline and was definitely much weaker than his familiar.

According to Zhang Xuan’s calculations, he would at least pass the Body Refining stage before he could be considered to have broken through the limits of a human. Only then would he have the “bloodline power” that a human should have.

It was this kind of crazy training intensity that caused both Zhang Xuan and Little Moon to break through. On the day before the monthly test, Little Moon reached bronze level 9, and her wind blade had reached the level of proficiency.

If Little Moon had been killing more than ten porcupines for more than ten days, she might have needed to rest. Now that Little Moon’s foundation was very solid, if she had another chance, she could easily kill hundreds of porcupines in an instant.

Zhang Xuan was very satisfied with this and it could even be said to be unexpected.

That day, they did not go to train again. One man and one wolf lay in bed for the whole day.

Later that night, Zhang Xuan and Little Moon slept very well.

The next morning, they arrived at City H’s top middle school. There were already quite a few people there. Under the envious gazes of their juniors, the third-year students who had contracted familiars strode toward the school’s special martial arts field.

As the largest middle school with the most qualified teachers in City H, the dojo in City H was also the largest. Because it was only a monthly test, everyone present was only school staff—it was not open to the public.

At this moment, the staff was helping the participants register. The teacher, Meng Huahua, was sitting at the side. Zhang Xuan wasn’t in a hurry to register, so he politely greeted her with Little Moon.

“This is your familiar? It’s a pretty good Silver Moon Wolf cub.” Meng Huahua said to Zhang Xuan with a smile before sizing up Little Moon.

The Silver Moon Wolf wasn’t actually a rare breed. It was rather common, so it didn’t attract much praise. There were also quite a few familiars with extraordinary bloodlines present.

In Meng Huahua’s eyes, the Silver Moon Wolf was only considered average. Moreover, it was still a young wolf, and Zhang Xuan had only registered as a beastmaster a month ago. He couldn’t be too strong.

As such, she didn’t feel that there was anything too eye-catching. She hoped that Zhang Xuan would come because she wanted to let others know that he had contracted a familiar, as well as to give him some encouragement.

After all, she was worried that Zhang Xuan would feel discouraged after falling from the position of a genius.

“Although you’re lagging behind the others by quite a bit, and your monthly test results might not be as good as expected, I hope that you won’t feel too bad. With your talent, I believe that you’ll be able to catch up with your classmates’ footsteps very soon.

“It’s only a matter of time before you shine. I’ve always believed in you. Don’t be too eager for quick success, and just lay a solid foundation. The college entrance exam is the most important battlefield.”

Zhang Xuan nodded seriously.

It had been too long since he had interacted with his classmates, and he didn’t know what level they had reached. He was still clear that he had fallen behind by a few months.

As for Meng Huahua’s frustration with a genius falling into the mortal world, if Zhang Xuan knew about it, he would probably just laugh it off.

This was because he had never considered himself a genius. The results he had obtained contained his own obsession—he had worked hard day and night. Behind the seemingly easy results were countless sweat and tears.

The word “genius” was not a compliment to him. On the contrary, it was a kind of denial of his hard work. Even if he had no talent, he would still try his best to stand in this position.

He didn’t know what Meng Huahua was thinking, but he understood his current situation. To be honest, he came here with the intention of bringing Little Moon to observe and learn.

After exchanging a few words with Meng Huahua, Zhang Xuan went to the examiner’s seat to register.

The monthly test was closed. Usually, two students of the same grade, who were almost the same in strength, would be selected to fight by drawing lots. Because it was random, cheating was avoided to a certain extent, unless the financial resources could buy most of the students.

However, although the monthly test’s rewards were decent, they didn’t go so far as to do this. With this money, he might as well use it to increase the strength of his familiars.

Therefore, the monthly test was relatively fair.

“State your name, the type of familiar, and its level.”

Soon, it was Zhang Xuan’s turn. The examiner had been busy the entire morning and didn’t even raise his head as he asked in a professional manner.

“Zhang Xuan, Silver Moon Wolf, bronze level 9,” Zhang Xuan replied calmly, but his words made the examiner raise his head and look at the calm youth in front of him in surprise.

“Bronze level 9?”

This was enough to rank him in the top five in this monthly test. Moreover, he didn’t seem to have seen this child in the previous monthly tests. It seemed that something different might happen this time.

“Go and wait at the side. I’ll call you when it’s your turn.” After taking a glance, the examiner lowered his head again and indicated for Zhang Xuan to wait at the preparation area.

“Okay. Thank you, Teacher.” Zhang Xuan nodded and left.
