Chapter 492: Ancient Fog University
Chapter 492: Ancient Fog University
No one noticed the woman sitting at a corner table, dressed in a black wool coat and wearing sunglasses that obscured her face.
Across from her, at a diagonal table, sat a middle-aged man with a somber demeanor.
Both seemed to sense something and exchanged a glance, then paused.
They then lowered their heads in unison, pretending not to recognize each other.
Minister Yang from the Zhitia Region is actually here. Could she have the same purpose as me... Minister Lan thought, her gaze catching the movement of the young girl standing up nearby. Her heart skipped a beat, and without further thought, she tapped her index finger on the table twice.
The white flower-shaped earring in her right ear immediately transformed into a drop of water, falling to the ground and trailing behind the girl.
...
In the women's restroom of the restaurant.
The Special Recruitment standards for the Top Academy vary each year, but my specialty is Beastmaster Combat. The test will likely involve some form of combat, which shouldn't be a problem...
What I need to do now is go back and pass the D-Rank Beastmaster Exam, which shouldn't be too difficult either...
The biggest challenge is the Cultural Score. I wonder if winning this championship can lower the Top Academy's Cultural Score requirement for the top ten...
As these thoughts raced through her mind, Qiao Sang approached the sink and placed her hand under the Waterborne Dragon's head.
"Rushing water~"
The water didn't scatter on her hand but instead coalesced into a jelly-like mass.
Damn, what is this... Qiao Sang instinctively shook her hand.
The milky-white "jelly" fell onto the sink.
Unexpectedly, the "jelly" opened a blue eye in the middle, then suddenly expanded, transforming into a familiar about 30 centimeters long, with a milky-white, soft, and elastic body.
It's a familiar... After witnessing the strange abilities of familiars from various regions over the past few months, Qiao Sang quickly calmed down and asked, "Are you lost?"
"Gugu." The milky-white familiar shook its head and then opened its mouth, reaching in with its claws.
Ew, that's gross... Qiao Sang winced.
The next second, she froze.
Because the familiar had pulled out a transparent file folder containing a white paper from its mouth.
"Gugu." The milky-white familiar held out the transparent file folder.
Qiao Sang: "..."
Qiao Sang stared at the water-stained file folder for a few seconds, then decisively turned and walked away.
"Gugu!"
The milky-white familiar panicked, quickly blocking Qiao Sang's path and calling out.
Qiao Sang reluctantly stopped and asked, "Is this for me?"
"Gugu!"
The milky-white familiar nodded.
"Do you know me?" Qiao Sang asked again.
"Gugu!" The milky-white familiar nodded.
At that moment, a familiar mechanical voice sounded: "Gudidi, a High-Grade Water Familiar from the Ancient Fog Region, can transform into various solid and liquid shapes. Despite its soft appearance, it is extremely stubborn and won't give up until it achieves its goal."
Qiao Sang silently turned to the side.
Sure enough, she saw Treasure Seeker holding a Familiar Identifier appear.
"Seek~"
Feeling his Beastmaster's gaze, Treasure Seeker grinned apologetically and vanished.
Qiao Sang: "..."
"Gugu!"
At that moment, Gudidi pushed the transparent file folder forward again.
Qiao Sang lowered her head and stared at the file folder for a few seconds before reaching out to take it.
Through the transparent file cover, she could clearly see the title on the top document: "Introduction to Ancient Fog University Special Recruitment."
Isn't this the Top Academy of the Ancient Fog Region... Qiao Sang was taken aback. She looked ahead and noticed that Gudidi had already disappeared.
Who would send me this... Qiao Sang thought, then opened the file folder and took out the papers inside, scanning them line by line.

【Five, Selection Process】
【1, Preliminary Review】

【Six, Special Matters】
【Examinees who have won first place in the National Match and possess Icechill may upload relevant documentation. Our school will grant them Direct Admission!】
Direct Admission... Qiao Sang's eyes widened as she read the last line.
First place in the nation, possessing Icechill—wasn't that exactly her?
So, if she applied to Ancient Fog University, she wouldn't have to take the tests or the College Entrance Exam at all?!
Qiao Sang's heart began to race.
She quickly flipped through the pages.
The Ancient Fog Region had a total of three Top Academies:
Ancient Fog University, Seacity University, and Mayuan University.
All the information for Special Recruitment was listed there.
Without exception, the final special matter for all three was Direct Admission for Examinees who had won first place in the nation and possessed Icechill.
To be honest, Qiao Sang was tempted.
Top Academies—these were Top Academies!
And Ancient Fog University was ranked ninth among all Top Academies in the nation!
Just by applying, she could be granted Direct Admission. It was impossible not to be tempted.
Qiao Sang took a deep breath to calm herself.
The final special matter was so targeted, clearly aimed at her. They even had Gudidi deliver the recruitment brochure to her personally.
The Ancient Fog Region was really... too touching!
At that moment, the image of the Ancient Fog Region in Qiao Sang's mind shone brightly, giving her a sense of a second home.
Just as Qiao Sang was lost in her thoughts, the bathroom light suddenly went out.
With a loud "bang", the bathroom door closed.
What the... Qiao Sang jumped and looked around cautiously.
Just as she was about to rush out to open the door, a ghostly green hand appeared in front of her, holding a transparent file folder with white papers inside.
Qiao Sang instinctively looked at her own hands, confirming that her file folder was still there.
"Nuo Nuo."
At that moment, the ghostly green hand handed the file folder to her.
Qiao Sang: "..."
"Is this for me?" Qiao Sang took a deep breath and asked tentatively.
"Nuo Nuo." The ghostly green hand nodded.
"Noyanling, a High-Grade Ghost-Type Companion Beast from Zitia District. Don't make any promises in front of it, or you might face terrible consequences." The mechanical voice of the Treasure Seeker rang out.
Qiao Sang turned around and, as expected, saw the Treasure Seeker.
This time, the Treasure Seeker wasn't invisible but was watching the familiar warily.
"Nuo Nuo." Noyanling seemed to ignore the Treasure Seeker's gaze and extended the file folder a bit more.
If you had just said it was for me, it wouldn't have been so scary... Qiao Sang thought to herself but politely accepted the file folder.
"Nuo Nuo."
Noyanling smiled politely, then vanished.
The next second, the lights came back on, and the door opened.
