Chapter 363: Add One Hour
Chapter 363: Add One Hour
The next day.
Holy Water High School.
After advancing to the elimination round, the school didn't require Qiao Sang to return to classes during the three-day break.
However, a message from the Senior High School Team's group chat stated that they needed to gather that afternoon.
Thinking she should also check in with Vice Principal to learn about Lulu's situation, Qiao Sang arrived at school early in the morning.
As she approached the corridor, she noticed a crowd gathered outside her classroom.
Qiao Sang asked a nearby girl who was tiptoeing to peek inside, "What are you all looking at?"
The girl replied without turning her head, "We're here to see Qiao Sang, of course. We weren't sure if she'd come to school today."
Qiao Sang was taken aback, "Why are you looking for me?"
The corridor suddenly fell silent.
Everyone turned around and realized that the person speaking was indeed Qiao Sang!
Who was Qiao Sang?
A sophomore freshman!
A sophomore freshman with a Green Star Array who had bonded with three familiars!
A sophomore freshman who had broken the rules to join the Senior High School Team and won all her matches against other schools' Senior High School Team members, successfully advancing to the Junior Year elimination round of the National School Beastmaster League!
How impressive!
The news of her perfect record quickly spread through the school, and Qiao Sang became the Light of Holy Water in the hearts of all the students.
"Ah! Qiao Sang! You finally came to school!"
"Qiao Sang! Can you summon Glacialia for us to see?"
"I heard you're heading to the elimination round the day after tomorrow. Good luck!"
"Qiao Sang, can I join your friend circle?"
A crowd swarmed around her, and the students' enthusiasm left Qiao Sang a bit overwhelmed.
Did she become a celebrity?
At that moment, the door to Class 1 opened, and Class Teacher Li Yi stepped out, looking stern. "Aren't you all supposed to be in class?"
Seeing their teacher, everyone vanished in a matter of seconds.
Li Yi turned to Qiao Sang, his smile spreading uncontrollably. "Come in."
Qiao Sang quickly entered the classroom and sat at her desk.
She soon noticed that the study gods weren't meditating as usual but were instead sneakily staring at her.
Under their gazes, Qiao Sang finally endured until the end of morning study.
As soon as the class teacher left, Jin Fanfei turned around eagerly. "Qiao Sang, you're amazing. You haven't lost a single match against the juniors yet."
Her goal was to be the top junior in the nation, so she couldn't afford to lose in the provincial group stage... Qiao Sang modestly replied, "This is just the group stage, and the difficulty is low. The regional tournament will be much tougher."
Jin Fanfei: "..."
Jin Fanfei immediately felt the conversation was going nowhere.
"By the way, how did you do?" Qiao Sang asked.
"Didn't you check the First-Year Team's group chat?" Jin Fanfei asked with certainty.
Qiao Sang admitted, "No, I didn't."
"Figures", Jin Fanfei muttered. "Our school's First-Year Team has all advanced to the elimination round."
Qiao Sang wasn't surprised at all.
Holy Water High School held the second position in Zhehai Province for years, and its strength was undeniable.
If anyone had been eliminated in the group stage, Holy Water High School wouldn't be feared by so many other schools.
...
The news of Qiao Sang's appearance at school quickly spread.
During every class break, a crowd of heads would press against the windows of Class 1, Grade 1, hoping to catch a glimpse of her.
After the morning classes ended, Qiao Sang had just gotten up when she turned her head and saw a group of people outside, their eyes gleaming as they looked at her.
Come on, it’s just the Junior Year elimination round, isn’t it?
Thinking about the possibility of being mobbed, Qiao Sang sat back down.
“Qiao Sang, do you need me to bring you something to eat?” Jin Fanfei hesitated for a moment before deciding to go out.
At the start of the school year, as someone with social anxiety, she definitely wouldn’t have dared to walk through a crowd of people staring at her to get outside.
But after the past half-month of competitions, Jin Fanfei’s social anxiety had lessened considerably.
Qiao Sang thought for a moment and said, “No, thanks.”
Jin Fanfei was taken aback. “You’re not eating?”
“Of course I am.” Qiao Sang suddenly remembered something and laughed. “I’ll have Treasure Seeker take me out.”
With that, she called out, “Treasure Seeker.”
“Seek~”
Treasure Seeker appeared.
Jin Fanfei’s expression showed sudden realization.
She understood. Qiao Sang wanted Treasure Hunter Demon to clear the way! With the intimidation of a Ghost-type Companion Beast, no one would dare to come near!
At that moment, Qiao Sang said, “Use Spatial Shift.”
“Seek~”
Treasure Seeker called out and then floated onto its Beastmaster’s head.
Spatial Shift? Jin Fanfei was stunned.
Before she could react, Qiao Sang and Treasure Hunter Demon vanished from their spots.
Jin Fanfei: “!!”
The other classmates still in the classroom: “!!”
The students outside with their heads pressed against the windows: “!!”
…
Qiao Sang opened her eyes and found herself in a small space.
Looking down, she saw that it was the school’s bathroom.
Qiao Sang nodded in satisfaction.
Since discovering that Treasure Seeker had learned Spatial Shift, she had made it practice for an hour every night.
After all, Spatial Shift was an incredibly useful skill. The sooner it mastered the coordinates for movement, the more she could sleep in and wake up just a minute before class.
Now, it seemed the training had paid off. Treasure Seeker had moved them to a spot that was neither too far nor too close.
Just as Qiao Sang was about to praise Treasure Seeker and head out, a boy’s voice came from outside:
“I heard that Qiao Sang from Sophomore Year is at school today. Aren’t you going to check it out?”
The next second, a “whoosh” sound echoed.
If this sound had been elsewhere, Qiao Sang might not have thought much of it.
But now, she immediately recognized it as the sound of urination.
Qiao Sang’s face stiffened.
Another distinctly different male voice said, “Why bother? I haven’t even finished my exam, let alone have time to join the crowd.”
They exchanged a few more words, followed by footsteps. Once the bathroom was quiet again, Qiao Sang, expressionless, took Treasure Seeker off her head.
“Seek~”
Treasure Seeker blinked innocently.
Qiao Sang took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to swear, and calmly analyzed her current situation.
If she had Treasure Seeker use Spatial Shift again, who knows where they might end up. It was best to get out while no one was around…
Qiao Sang listened carefully to the sounds outside, confirmed that no one was there, and with a “click,” she opened the bathroom door.
Sure enough, it was the boys’ bathroom…
Qiao Sang ran out as fast as she could, her head down.
Once she reached the corner of the stairwell, she lifted Treasure Seeker to her face and said sternly, “From now on, we’ll add an extra hour to the nightly Spatial Shift practice.”
“Seek…”
…
Ps: Couldn’t sleep, so I wrote this for you all.
