Chapter 663: Chapter 598: District 27
Tang Yi looked surprised:
"Is it really the last outdoor practical class already?"
Thank you, my mouth substitute... Qiao Sang silently approved of Tang Yi in her heart.
Sometimes having someone who knows nothing just like you is actually quite nice.
"Quick?" Yuna thought about it and said, "School has already been going on for over two months. This is the last term, and the pace of courses is going to speed up. Once we’ve attended all the required classes, what follows will all be revision time."
Qiao Sang had indeed experienced high school life once before.
Thinking back, the latter half of the senior year had indeed very few new lessons; most of the time was spent revising. It seemed that Chao Su Star followed the same pattern.
When she found out they would be leaving for District 27 in the afternoon, Qiao Sang didn’t feel that sense of dissatisfaction of being the last to know.
Knowing earlier or later made no difference to her; even if the news reached her mother far back on Blue Star, at most she would caution her to be careful. She couldn’t expect the kind of protection with bodyguards that her classmates’ parents would arrange.
When the morning classes were over, the classroom instantly became lively as not everyone left the class immediately like usual.
At that moment, a fashionably dressed woman with red hair walked in; the students immediately quieted down and turned their gazes towards her.
Elun Xikoni was the outdoor practical class teacher for Class 6.
Qiao Sang had a good impression of her, mainly because she didn’t, like other teachers, frequently call on her to stand up and answer questions.
Of course, on the other hand, she liked to summon her at any time to demonstrate the various strengths of her Pet Beast.
For Qiao Sang, who had once won the national title in the Campus Beast Taming League, it was as simple as answering what one plus one equals.
Elun looked around at the students below and asked with a smile:
"Is everyone ready?"
"We are!" the classmates answered.
"I believe Qiao Sang and Tang Yi have also heard from other students about today’s trip to District 27," Elun looked at Qiao Sang and Tang Yi and instructed,
"Since your families are not with you, when we are in District 27, stay close to me and don’t wander off too far."
...
On the way to District 27, Qiao Sang gained a whole new understanding of her classmates’ extravagance.
It wasn’t just the personal bodyguards they brought with them; almost each one had a household Pet Beast taking care of various needs like food and drink, rest, and others.
Sitting in a corner of the spaceship, watching the bustling household type Pet Beasts going to and fro, Qiao Sang couldn’t help but reflect:
"One would think we’re going on a leisurely trip rather than to class if they didn’t know better."
Tang Yi, who had experienced the significant ups and downs in life, was more philosophical:
"For them, going to the Lower Districts is already suffering."
Qiao Sang recalled her own time spent in District 25 and said,
"I don’t know what the difference is between District 25 and District 27."
After some thought, Tang Yi speculated,
"Maybe there are more wild Pet Beasts in District 27, or perhaps they are more aggressive."
At these words, Qiao Sang suddenly remembered that Gangbao had come from District 27.
The departure to District 27 happened so suddenly that she hadn’t had the chance to talk to Gangbao about it.
Right, Gangbao mentioned wanting to go back to District 27... Thinking of this, Qiao Sang’s mood became somewhat heavy, and she instantly lost the desire to chat.
Back then, when Chan Chan Shi left, it later brought over a whole family. But if Gangbao was in the same situation as Chan Chan Shi, she surely couldn’t bring a flock of Little Steel Falcons to Blue Star someday.
Even if she wanted to, she didn’t have the qualifications or rights to arrange such a thing.
Amidst the disarray of thoughts, Qiao Sang fell asleep...
When she awoke, the spaceship had already reached District 27.
"My God, there are so many wild Pet Beasts outside!"
"Look, they just pop up from the ground. You could even trip over a wild Pet Beast while walking—isn’t that a bit too dangerous?"
"Is that sauntering pig actually climbing a tree?!"
One by one, the students of extraordinary bearing exclaimed as they looked at the scene outside the cabin.
Although they were all from Chao Su Star, they had lived in the most peaceful Upper Districts since they were born, where even the wild Pet Beasts were strictly managed.
The fact that the Lower Districts had a large number of wild Pet Beasts was not unknown to them, but they had only seen them online or on major news outlets.
They had never encountered so many wild Pet Beasts behaving so recklessly.
Qiao Sang could understand their shock and awe; their current state was probably like how southern people from his old hometown on Earth would react when they went north and saw snow for the first time.
At that moment, Elun’s voice came through the broadcast:
"Students, we have arrived at District 27. Here, we will conduct our last field practicum lesson. I hope the bodyguards you brought with you will not interfere with the practicum unnecessarily."
"Of course, you can have them protect you in case of danger. However, I will also assess whether the danger warrants someone else’s intervention. If you let someone step in for something you could have handled yourself, I will deduct Points accordingly."
"You may consider this last field practicum lesson as your final exam. I will select the three students who perform the best and award them with Points."
"First place will receive 30 Points, second place 20 Points, and third place 10 Points."
Upon hearing this, the whole class immediately exploded with excitement.
It’s worth noting that the top score in regular exams was only worth 10 Points.
This time, it had tripled!
Qiao Sang, who had just been sleeping, was now wide awake, sitting up straight with a look of determination in her eyes.
She might not get a single Point in other subjects, but in a field practicum like this, she could!
Then, the cabin door opened.
Qiao Sang followed the crowd and disembarked the spacecraft.
Looking around, there were not many people, but there were plenty of wild Pet Beasts.
Some wild Pet Beasts glanced at them and ignored them, while others watched them vigilantly, as if ready to attack at any sign of provocation.
Elun was the first to step off the spacecraft; when she saw that all the students had disembarked, she formed hand seals and summoned a terrifying Pet Beast over seven meters tall, covered in green vines with only a pair of black eyes visible, moving about.
Feeling its powerful aura, the vast majority of the wild Pet Beasts fled in fright.
Only a few larger Pet Beasts remained, still watching the area cautiously.
Suddenly, a bird-like Pet Beast about three meters in size, mostly black in color, swooped down from the sky towards a boy who was eating a paper cupcake.
The boy was focused on the food in his hands and completely unaware of the danger above him.
His bodyguard was about to react when dozens of green seeds shot out like bullets from not far away, hitting the black bird-like Pet Beast at a speed the eye couldn’t follow with a "bang, bang, bang."
"Dudu!"
The black bird-like Pet Beast let out a pained cry and flew away.
The boy looked up at the departing black bird-like Pet Beast and froze, as if he had just realized he might have been attacked by a wild Pet Beast.
Elun said sternly:
"It seems you’ve forgotten what I’ve taught before, so let me say it one last time. If you want to increase your safety in the Lower Districts, don’t eat carelessly outside, because the food in your mouth could very well make you a target for wild Pet Beasts!"
Hearing this, the boy was so scared that he quickly threw the paper cupcake on the ground.
But before the cupcake even hit the ground,
a yellow Pet Beast with a huge jaw suddenly burst from the ground and swallowed the paper cupcake whole.
Then it burrowed back into the earth and disappeared without a trace.
