After using cheats, I became the strongest Beast Tamer

"Junior, honestly, I really admire you. It's rare for me, Tong Xuhua, to admire someone in this way,"

Around the wine table, Tong Xuhua's cheeks were flushed red, his gaze blurry.

He raised his glass to Chen Xing and then downed it in one gulp.

Wen Jin stood up, holding a cup of tea with a gentle tone, "Due to health reasons, I can't drink alcohol, so I'll toast you with tea. To be honest, before I participated in the competition, I never thought I could become... a champion."

"I feel quite undeserving of this title."

After speaking, he downed his cup of tea, then refilled it with more tea water.

This time, Wen Jin looked around at everyone seriously.

"Chen has led us to championship; it's an enormous honor, but I don't want anyone to disgrace this title and consequently tarnish Junior's reputation,"

"We're all friends here, so I want to say something upfront.

If anyone uses this title to smear Junior in the future, there's no need for him to step in. As long as I, Wen Jin, am alive, I'll be the first to take action."

Once he finished speaking, Wen Jin downed his tea again.

"Wen, I don't like what you're saying. It sounds like you're the only one who knows gratitude," Tian Xuechuan protested.

"I was actually thinking before, to cling to Junior's coattails, maybe we could win a championship again next year or the year after. I didn't expect us to get it all in one go."

As he spoke, Tian Xuechuan's voice choked up a bit, "Every time I saw Junior's Beast Taming fighting alone on the field, it really didn't feel great."

Tian Xuechuan clenched his fists, looking earnestly at Chen Xing, "Next year, I absolutely won't hold you back!"

"..." Chen Xing started to speak, then hesitated.

Next year, I might be going to college, senior.

"Alright, you just need to do your best, and make sure not to mess up big time on the field next year," Kuang Shiyi was aware of Chen Xing's plans to take his college entrance exam early.

"With such great achievements, Chen might even get directly recommended this year."

"What?!" Tian Xuechuan's eyes widened in shock.

It only then dawned on him.

Yeah, Junior has performed so well.

It's not impossible for him to be recommended.

"Junior, have you been recommended?"

Chen Xing shook his head, "No one has contacted me."

Tian Xuechuan nodded, but for some reason, he felt a little anxious.

He had obtained a championship this year. If he were to compete next year and didn't even make it to the top thirty-two, it would be so embarrassing.

...

It wasn't until the latter half of the night that the group returned to Dragon Pavilion Residence.

The next morning.

Chen Xing, yawning, got up from bed.

In the room, Sìxiàng was squatting in a corner, eyes half-closed.

He had been on guard all night.

"Morning," Chen greeted Sìxiàng.

Sìxiàng nodded, his hoarse and deep voice coming through, "Master, no one came last night."

After a morning run, and having taken Taotie for a stroll,

he returned to the large dining hall at Dragon Pavilion Residence for breakfast.

Just as he sat down with his breakfast, a fine-featured middle-aged man took a seat opposite him.

Chen took a look at him and noticed the man was staring at him with a grin.

"Hello, student. I'm Teacher Hu from the Jiuzhou University Longdu Office," he said.

Upon hearing this, Chen put down his chopsticks and also returned a "hello."

Teacher Hu continued with a smile, "I watched your competition. How do you feel about a Class A special recruitment spot at Jiuzhou University?"

"For me?"

"That's right."

Chen had already planned to attend Jiuzhou University and accepted the offer right away.

Seeing how readily Chen agreed, Teacher Hu was a little stunned but quickly smiled.

The speech he had prepared in advance turned out to be unnecessary.

"This is your student card, keep it safe."

Hu Qi said as he took out a black card from his chest pocket and handed it to Chen Xing.

Receiving the student card, Chen Xing looked down at it briefly.

The black card was adorned with complex silver patterns.

There was no photo, only an uneven embossment in the top right corner.

He hadn't expected to become a student at Jiuzhou University before even graduating from high school.

Before, he was just a student of mentor Han Yuning, halfway to being a student of Jiuzhou University, but now with the student card in hand, his identity was thoroughly confirmed.

He had heard that there were many discounts for Jiuzhou University students within the country, and in many places, this card could be used directly as a membership card.

"With this student card, can I go to the university now?"

"Of course, your spot was personally approved by the president himself; you can go to the university to register at any time."

Speaking of this, Hu Qi paused, "However...

You can listen to the internal public courses at Jiuzhou University for free, and you can also directly participate in projects by your mentor,

but since this year's national college entrance examination hasn't started yet, you are technically a student of the next cohort.

You should be considered a prospective freshman,

with the current freshman class considered your seniors, and they are already more than halfway through their courses.

If you start attending classes now, you might find it difficult to catch up with the progress.

Therefore, I suggest that if you do go now, you should first involve yourself in some projects with your mentor, which can earn you academic credits.

In the university, many things are related to academic credits. If you don't go now, you can also wait until the summer break after the national college entrance examination is over."

Chen Xing pondered, feeling that Teacher Hu's advice was quite detailed.

He nodded unconsciously.

Yet, a hint of hesitation still appeared on his face.

"It seems you have something else on your mind, do you mind sharing?" Hu Qi was curious about what the young man was hesitating over.

Chen Xing asked seriously, "Can I still take part in the college entrance examination?"

"..." Hu Qi hadn't expected Chen Xing to bring this up.

He couldn't help but laugh wryly.

Hu Qi generously said, "That's up to you, but if you take the college entrance examination, an additional score will be recorded in your file. It won't affect you in other respects."

Chen Xing nodded.

It sounded quite good to him.

Hu Qi said with a smile, "Oh right, this year's college entrance examination is different from previous years.

This year is the first year of educational reform. If you're interested, you could give it a shot."

He'd just casually mentioned such important news?

Noticing Chen Xing's confusion, Hu Qi explained, "It's not exactly a secret. I haven't told you the specific content of the exam.

Those with connections and backgrounds have already gotten wind of it."

He also trusted that Chen Xing wouldn't be foolish enough to widely disseminate it online.

"Teacher Hu, is there a deadline for registering at the university?"

Chen Xing still had some important things left unfinished.

If he were to go to the university now, it would conflict with his current plans.

Hu Qi shook his head, "There's no deadline for that, come to the Jiuzhou University Dragon Pavilion Residence office to find me whenever you feel ready.

Even if you come after the college entrance examination is over, it's fine. There's no pressure in this regard; it's entirely up to you."

"Thank you."

"No need to be polite, Mr. Chen. It was a foregone conclusion that with your talent, you would enter Jiuzhou University. I heard that Dean Huang from our school fought hard to secure this spot for you," Hu Qi hinted meaningfully.

"Although they're all special admissions, there are three levels: 'A,' 'B,' and 'C.' Each level comes with different benefits.

Sometimes, an entire cohort may not even have a single 'A-level' special admission."

Chen Xing took note of the reminder from Hu Qi.

He would remember this Dean Huang, and later, he could ask his mentor to see if she knew who Dean Huang was.
