Chapter 19 - 19: Surely it can’t be because of washing and protection? _1
As one of the three Beast Mastery High Schools in Qingzhou City catering to age-appropriate Beast Masters, the Second Beast Mastery High School boasts the best educational resources.
With standardized fields equipped with four hundred-meter running tracks, there are a whopping three here.
At this moment, in the center of one of the fields, Class 6 of the freshman year is conducting their afternoon course – Skill Training.
“The training of skills is undoubtedly crucial for the power improvement of Pet Beasts!” Facing the students who were standing in four rows, the Skill Training teacher, Zhao You, spoke solemnly.
“Training the skills, can improve the skill proficiency at the fastest speed, while continuously consuming and restoring the power of the Pet Beast, can also stimulate the potential of the Pet Beast, accelerating its growth, killing two birds with one stone.”
“So you must pay the utmost attention to it!”
“For the three years of high school, my requirement for you is to have all your Pet Beasts reach the Starlight Level in Skill Proficiency!” Zhao You paused slightly, then abruptly raised his voice, “Did you all hear that?!”
“Understood!”
The students jolted awake together, then shouted in unison.
“Wake up!” Zhao You shouted, then lifted his hand which had been behind his back, on his hand, was a thick notebook.
“This class is a monthly exam class.” Zhao You patted the notebook in his hand, “Four weeks ago, I recorded the skill proficiency of each of your Pet Beasts, and now, I want to see the progress you’ve made this month!”
“The Skill Training class at Beast Mastery High School replaces the physical education class at ordinary high schools, but it doesn’t mean they are the same!”
His eyes squinted slightly, and the look in his eyes with a hint of murderous intent when he looked at the students, “If you think that the Skill Training class and the physical education class are the same, that you can play as you wish after dismissal, then you are totally wrong!”
“Old Zhao always says this during every exam class, I’m tired of hearing it.” In the ranks, Lin Yue secretly gave a sneer, and began to whisper complaints to Su Xiaoxiao who was standing beside her.
Before Su Xiaoxiao could respond, a loud shout came abruptly.
“Lin Yue, stand out!”
“Present!” Lin Yue suddenly straightened her back, her expression became earnest, she obediently stepped out of the ranks like a mouse seeing a cat, and went to Zhao You.
“I was speaking, and so were you.” Zhao You’s face became dangerous, “It seems that you are very confident, so let’s start the test now!”
“…Okay.”
Lin Yue’s face turned bitter, and obediently stood in front of a large vacant space that had been cleared out on the side, six-pointed starlight intertwined behind her.
Accompanied by whirlwinds, a giant eagle with green wings flew out of nowhere, it circled in the air twice before landing on her shoulder.
An uproar suddenly broke out in the crowd.
“What’s going on? How did Lin Yue’s Green Wind Eagle change like this?”
“Don’t know? It wasn’t like this during the Appearance Assessment yesterday, it was only one night, and it’s like changing a Pet Beast.”
“Wait… this sense of deja vu, why do I feel so familiar?”
“Now that you say it, I feel the same…”
“Quiet!”
Zhao You shouted, quelling the whispering voices, and carefully eyeing the Green Wind Eagle on Lin Yue’s shoulder, his eyes showed a hint of appreciation.
What a majestic Green Wind Eagle, the aesthetics are really good, Lin Yue had put some efforts into cultivating her Pet Beast this month.
“Let’s begin, the three skills of the Green Wind Eagle: Two Stars Skills, Wind Split and Feather Blade, One Star Skill, Sharp Eye. Now demonstrate Wind Split first.” Zhao You said, and flipped open the notebook in his hand, comparing various data recorded when Lin Yue was tested last month.
“Xiao Yu, Wind Split! Give it your all!”
When it came time for the test, Lin Yue also dropped her playful smile, her face serious as she pointed to a very thick alloy plate not far away, indicating for the Green Wind Eagle to attack.
“Whoosh!”
The Green Wind Eagle flapped its wings and left Lin Yue’s shoulder. In mid-air, it turned into a green arrow and headed straight for the alloy plate. Then in midair, it abruptly stopped, its sharp claws emitting dazzling green light, and tore at the alloy plate from a distance.
The wind attribute transcendent power turned into a green light blade, silently cutting into the alloy plate, and then dispersed.
“Cut depth… 11.3cm.” Zhao You looked at the results given by the detection equipment and announced Lin Yue’s test results.
Then, he lowered his head to look at Lin Yue’s test results from a month ago, his face showing a hint of surprise.
A month ago, 9.3cm.
The alloy plates used to test the power of Skills are specially customized. The deeper they are, the more sturdy they are. At the same time, they also have self-repairing abilities.
A depth of two centimeters seems ordinary, but Zhao You roughly calculated and then realized how much progress Lin Yue’s Green Wind Eagle has made this month.
Conversely, Lin Yue herself also had a surprised face.
What’s happening?
Only oneself can know one’s own situation, she had tried hard in Skill Training this month, but the progress was not very noticeable.
Even if she didn’t quantify the test, she could tell that Xiao Yu’s performance was significantly better than before.
“Continue testing Feather Blade.”
Zhao You’s voice rang out, bringing Lin Yue quickly back to her senses.
No matter, let’s continue!
“Xiao Yu, Feather Blade!”
The Green Wind Eagle, hovering in the air, once again lunged towards the alloy plate which had just repaired itself from the tear. It’s wings burst forth with dazzling green light, and then fiercely fanned towards the alloy plate.
A series of energy feathers materialize, whistling towards the alloy plate like darts. The sheer number, close distribution, almost forming a wall of light feathers.
“173 Feather Blades, maximum depth 4.4cm…” Looking at the freshly baked test results and comparing them with the records from a month ago, Zhao You fell silent again.
A month ago, 132 Feather Blades, maximum depth 2.9cm.
If the progress of Wind Split was already great just now, the progress of Feather Blade at this moment is nothing short of astronomical.
“Continue testing Sharp Eye.” Zhao You took a deep breath and spoke slowly.
“Okay.” Lin Yue also noticed something weird with her own Green Wind Eagle, and quickly took it to a device specially designed to test long-distance eyesight.
Soon, the test results came out.
“This time it’s normal.” Zhao You looked at the comparison of the tests one month before and after, slightly nodded, then looked at Lin Yue with a serious face, “Did you conduct high-intensity special training for the Pet Beast this month?”
“No?” Lin Yue shook her head blankly, “I just followed your advice, teacher, and trained the Green Wind Eagle.”
“My advice?” Zhao You fell into thought, “Just by following my advice, you’ve made this much progress?”
After each test, he would casually give some training suggestions to the students for the coming month, but it was only for reference.
Knowing his own capabilities, Zhao You was aware that if he really had this ability, he wouldn’t be a teacher here.
“Yeah, surely it can’t be because the Green Wind Eagle was given Washing and Protection yesterday, right?” Lin Yue casually spoke, then suddenly paused.
She turned her head abruptly, meeting the bright eyes of Su Xiaoxiao in the crowd.
Could it really be?
