Start With Contracting Sprites Chapter 112 - The Eve Before the College Entrance Examination

Chapter 112: The Eve Before the College Entrance Examination

At night.

In the old house.

Su Hao slumped in his chair, browsing a certain video website. He found it boring and dull.

The training of his three sprites was on track.

Reverie b.u.t.terfly was a bit playful. He didn’t know what it was up to in secret, but it could complete its mission on time.

As long as he guided the Flaming Cloud Crow and it used the time it spent on daydreaming on its training, it would become a serious crow.

Water Spirit Foal…

Su Hao took a look at the wooden board of the closet in the bedroom. Someone had kicked a hole out of it, and the hoofprints extended from the bottom to the top of the wall… It stepped so hard that a small section of the hoofprints sank into the wall.

He sighed slightly.

Without a doubt, Water Spirit Foal was very talented.

From the shape of its hoof print, one could see that it was almost instinctively using spiritual force.

“Fortunately, I’ve already developed the correct training method for Water Spirit Foal.”

Su Hao walked to the living room.

The TV was playing a cartoon. He took a look at it. It was the story of “Seven Little Lambs and the Prince of Wolf Castle”.

“What is this little guy reading all day…”

He had the intention of throwing the TV away.

But he looked at the two big water b.a.l.l.s hovering in front of Reverie b.u.t.terfly, under its control, the round water b.a.l.l.s gradually flattened.

— It was learning the Psychic s.h.i.+eld.

Among the unlocked practice plans, Su Hao chose one that was more suitable.

By filling a balloon with high quality water and adding jade powder, it would become “Spiritual Spring Waterater” with spiritual force.

Of course it was the inferior version.

In a few hours, the spiritual force contained in the water would completely dissipate.

However, the “Spiritual Spring Water” made sprites more perceiving. Using the water ball to shape was the little rascal’s second learning stage of the Psychic s.h.i.+eld.

The first stage was to materialize spiritual force and use it to control objects.

That was “Psychic”. Reverie b.u.t.terfly had already completed the first step in the primordial area of the Changbai Mountains.

Su Hao gave it a few glances.

Under the control of Reverie b.u.t.terfly, the two water b.a.l.l.s changed from ★ to §. It looked like the third stage wasn’t far away.

“Since the little rascal is practicing seriously, let’s just forget it this time…”

Su Hao walked towards the study room on the side.

On the sofa, Reverie b.u.t.terfly (¬_¬) glanced at him. The two water b.a.l.l.s turned into ghost faces, and then it started to watch the cartoon with relish.

Flaming Cloud Crow, which didn’t have much of a presence at the side, also stared at the screen a few times, but due to its poor literacy, it soon lost interest.

In the study.

There were originally bookshelves filled with Father Su’s books.

But as Father Su and Mother Su moved to their new home, the library in the study was naturally moved over as well. This place was changed by Su Hao to a small training room.

He heard panting the moment he entered.

A little water-blue horse was running under the light. The corners of its eyes were sparkling with tears of regret.

Su Hao looked at the treadmill specially created for sprite training.

The speed of the tracks was very fast.

The sound of horse hooves came from the ground. Fortunately, this treadmill had anti-shock measures, so it wouldn’t cause too much disturbance to the residents downstairs.

But Su Hao was already thinking about changing rooms.

He walked closer to take a look.

The mileage on the display screen was already 10.4 kilometers.

“Sure, go on. Good luck.”

“Run 20 kilometers today, and 21 kilometers tomorrow. Soon, you’ll become a powerhouse of 100 kilometers.”

“Neighhh ~ Neighhh (ಥ_ಥ)!”

Water Spirit Foal felt bitter.

But it couldn’t say anything.

…

Time pa.s.sed quickly.

Su Hao didn’t feel anything and several months pa.s.sed just like that.

For months, his life had been very regular.

He either went to school or skipped cla.s.ses.

There were friendly matches between schools from time to time.

An City First High went to other schools to challenge them, while other schools also issued challenges to An City First High.

Perhaps it was because of the College Entrance Examination reform this year, the XX Ministry of Sprite Trainers (delete) in the Dragon Nation District had also allocated more educational resources, so exchange compet.i.tions between schools were frequently held.

Su Hao rejected representing his school to challenge others.

On the home field of An City First High, he even joined in the fun to go on the field once. He commanded Flaming Cloud Crow and won five opponents in a row without suffering damage to it before jumping off the stage himself.

“The life of a genius is so lonely and empty.”

Apart from the friendly match and regular training…..

Occasionally, Su Hao would also ask Liu Ren and the others to allow their sprites in attacking the Reverie b.u.t.terfly.

Needless to say, as more and more of their sprites entered entry-level, they also exerted a bit of pressure on Reverie b.u.t.terfly.

The training effect was alright.

— There was no other way. There was a limit to the number of official Sprite Trainers in An City. Most of them were elderly and held important positions. There were only that many tool sprites that Su Hao could find.

Make do with this.

On this day…

He continued to ride the shared bicycle to school.

He arrived a little late.

“I don’t know why, but the number of shared bicycles I can find is decreasing. I’ve wasted so much time looking for one!”

Su Hao decided not to buy the monthly card next month.

He turned to look at the Water Spirit Foal which was running around happily, and felt a little resentful that it couldn’t become a beast.

Why hadn’t its spiritual force reach 200 points!

After a few months, the Water Spirit Foal had grown much taller, reaching the height of his chest.

If he had to ride it, it wasn’t impossible either.

It was just a little strange.

It was like an adult riding a toy bike… It was far from the domineering appearance of riding a water qilin in his imagination.

Besides, it was wrong to ride an underage horse.

So he didn’t ride it.

Su Hao locked the bicycle and entered the campus.

As the College Entrance Examination approached, the atmosphere in the school became increasingly tense.

Students in a hurry could be seen everywhere in the cultural district next door, such as lawns, woods, dim staircases, and so on. People revising with books in their hands could be seen everywhere too.

There were sounds of reading and memorizing everywhere.

The atmosphere at the Sprite stream campus didn’t seem so tense, but that was because there were very few people there.

In fact, the pressure on the Sprite stream students was even greater.

Especially people from ordinary families.

Contracting and cultivating sprites cost a lot.

It was very likely that their family’s income was a little tight because they chose Sprite stream.

If it weren’t for Su Hao earning his own money, Old Su’s family… would probably be in the same situation.

Perhaps his parents wouldn’t tell him, but third-year high school students weren’t children. They knew the pressure at home.

The closer it was to the College Entrance Examination, the greater the invisible pressure.

Especially those who weren’t confident enough.

As for repeating a year?

It would be even more difficult for real ordinary families to squeeze out another year of money. If the cultivation resources couldn’t keep up, even a year of study would be for naught.

They had to get into a Sprite University!

On the main road from the school gate to the cla.s.sroom building, there were many banners encouraging students.

“Just a step away from the morning of Qujiang. Cheer on each other, our voices can be heard.”

“When the red sun rises, its rays s.h.i.+ne brightly.”

“Our suppressed dragons will soon soar, our claws will fly in the air.”

“Win those tall, rich and handsome students and defeat the second-generation heirs.”

Su Hao looked up. The most important hurdle in his life, the Fish Leap Through the Dragon Gate, was coming.

Especially now that there was a Sprite stream, the College Entrance Examination was even more important than before.

He didn’t feel the nervousness he expected at all.

He couldn’t help but be impressed.

“So my mental fort.i.tude is already this strong?”

Su Hao brought along his three sprites and walked through the main road with twelve banners by the sides before arriving at Cla.s.s Two’s cla.s.sroom.

The cla.s.sroom was very quiet.

The sprites also felt the tension and pressure of the approaching College Entrance Examination.

When he looked up, he could see the countdown number hanging above the blackboard.

— There were still 18 days until the College Entrance Examination.
