Beast taming, starting from zero point
Chapter 556 - 508: Points Leaderboard

Chapter 556: Chapter 508: Points Leaderboard

The Beast Taming Codex had indeed broken through to the fourth page... Qiao Sang felt a surge of joy in her heart.

Yesterday, when she found out her brain domain development had reached 29%, she already had a hunch that a breakthrough might occur.

But now that it actually had, she couldn’t help but feel excited.

After all, reaching the fourth page of the Beast Taming Codex was one of the qualifications for being assessed as a C-rank Beast Tamer, and with that credential, she would be eligible to participate in the regional competitions.

It must be noted that the regional competition was the largest event in all the major regions.

It almost gathered all the young Professional Beast Tamers with high talent and formidable strength, representing the highest level of combat within the younger generation of the Professional Beast Tamers from their respective regions.

Without exception, young Professional Beast Tamers all aimed for the regional competition, both for the honor and for the fame it truly brought.

Any contestant who had participated in the regional competition and achieved notable results would receive a plethora of invitations and endorsements from major television networks; they wouldn’t have to worry about resources for a considerably long time thereafter.

Despite their stardom-like attention, their social status and income were much higher than those of actual stars.

The Interstellar Cup was too far-fetched for most to even consider; the regional competition was already the dream of all Professional Beast Tamers, and naturally, Qiao Sang wanted to take part.

She grabbed her mobile phone from the coffee table, intending to immediately look up Pet Beasts suitable for contracting.

Visiting Chao Su Star without contracting its exclusive Pet Beasts would be a missed opportunity.

"Yaobao!"

At that moment, Yaobao’s voice sounded from nearby.

Qiao Sang turned her head and saw the spirited Yaobao, somewhat surprised, "You’re awake?"

"Ya Ya."

Yaobao called out, indicating it had been awake for quite a while.

Awake for quite a while? Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment, then looked down at her phone to check the time, 7:58 AM.

Qiao Sang: "!!!"

Damn! The second day of school and she was about to be late again?!

...

Qiao Sang entered the classroom, drawing the attention of all her classmates.

To be late for two days straight, especially in the special top class, and within the entire Sainan High School, there were very few like her.

Facing the gaze of all her classmates, Qiao Sang sat down in her own seat with a calm face.

How others viewed her tardiness wasn’t important; what mattered was that she had missed most of the class content again.

"Looks like our class has got a rebel," whispered a classmate nearby.

"She’s an Intergalactic Exchange Student. Even if she’s late every day, the school can’t do much about her."

"I’m so jealous..."

"What’s there to be jealous about? Our school operates on a points system. She was directly promoted to high school grade one, and if she can’t keep up with the grades, apart from Beast Taming duels and field exams, it’ll be tough for her to earn points in other subjects. Being late once deducts 3 points; I bet it won’t take many deductions for her initial points to disappear completely."

"But she’s an Intergalactic Exchange Student, a champion who came here with plenty of resources. Even if she loses all her points, her family won’t reprimand her one bit."

"Stop it, you’re making me envious too..."

The conversation of her classmates clearly reached Qiao Sang’s ears, but her expression hardly changed as she pretended not to hear.

When the next break came, Qiao Sang turned her head and asked Tang Yi, who was seated in the row behind her:

"What’s this points system at Sainan High School?"

Tang Yi was taken aback for a moment, recalled how Qiao Sang was always buried in her books and seldom interacted with others, and thought it seemed normal for her to be unaware of Sainan High School’s points system.

He explained:

"Here at Sainan High School, resources are primarily acquired through points. Three points can be exchanged for resources worth three hundred thousand on the market, and so on. Just think of 1 point as equivalent to one hundred thousand Alliance Currency."

Qiao Sang: "???"

Wait, someone just said being late once would cost three points, so for being two days late, isn’t that a direct loss of 600,000?!

Tang Yi continued:

"I know you don’t lack resources, but there are some items available for exchange here that you can’t buy on the market. I checked the exchange system yesterday and saw there were some S-rank resources."

The brief two sentences pierced Qiao Sang’s heart like arrows.

Qiao Sang was silent for a long time, "No one has ever told me about this..."

"You are always reading; there’s never a chance to talk to you," Tang Yi said, then lowered his voice, "People here won’t take the initiative to tell us these things either."

"Why?" Qiao Sang asked.

"Because we are intergalactic exchange students," Tang Yi said softly, "Their points start from the first year of high school, but we only came here in the second half of our senior year, so the good stuff isn’t our turn to exchange. All the teachers here are from Chao Su Star, and for them, we are just here to experience a different learning method."

"However, they probably also think we don’t need those resources, since after all, we’re only here for half a year. If we want to exchange for things not available on the market, we won’t have enough points, and for the things that are available on the market, they assume we don’t lack them."

After listening, Qiao Sang digested the information and said:

"The students here probably don’t care that much about points."

"Who says so," Tang Yi sighed, "They are all born into great families; they might not care much about resources, but they care about the point rankings."

Qiao Sang looked at Tang Yi, signaling him to continue.

Tang Yi said:

"The points ranking is a list that judges the students’ abilities in all aspects. If they don’t care, their parents will."

"If the points are too low, the family will think the person is incompetent, and once deemed incompetent, it will then be very difficult to be trusted with important tasks within the family."

Judging abilities as early as high school, typical of great families... Qiao Sang asked, "So how do you earn points?"

Tang Yi patiently answered:

"It depends on your grades in various subjects, or winning certain honors for the school. You can also help classmates or teachers with some tasks. Points can be transferred, and almost all transactions here are done with points."

"Oh, what were your initial points?"

Qiao Sang felt a stir of curiosity and asked, "Aren’t our initial points the same?"

Tang Yi with a wistful look, "You were the champion, and I was the runner-up, how could our points be the same."

Awkward, so the initial points are based on that... Qiao Sang coughed and asked:

"Where can I see the initial points?"

Tang Yi glanced at Qiao Sang as if looking at someone still using a 2G network in an age of modern technology.

"Check the Sainan High School official website, you can see it by logging in with your student number," said Tang Yi.

So that was it... Taking advantage of the time before class began, Qiao Sang swiftly took out his phone and opened the school’s official website, logging into his account.

"How many points do you have?" Tang Yi asked eagerly.

Qiao Sang said with a less than pleasant expression, "94 points."

points — it was clear that six points had already been deducted.

600,000, just gone like that...

"What about you?" Qiao Sang asked, trying to manage his mood.

Tang Yi was silent for two seconds, "Guess?"

Qiao Sang: "..."

Tang Yi felt tears inside, realizing just how much of a difference there was between the champion and the runner-up! 20 points or something like that, I just can’t say it out loud!
