<i>A bolt from the blue!</i>
Little Treasure was struck as if by lightning and immediately revealed himself, floating to the side.
At that moment, he forgot he was still ying hide-and-seek and let out a trembling cry.
"Xun?!"
<i>School?!</i>
"Yes." Qiao Sang nodded slightly.
"The school requires pet beasts to study as well, so I signed you up."Little Treasure staggered back, as if taking a heavy blow.
He stared at his Beast master in disbelief, never expecting such a cold-hearted statement toe from those 37-degree lips.
"Xun xun?"
After a few seconds, Little Treasure seemed to think of something and called out tentatively.
<i>What about Big Brother Yabao and Lubao?</i>
Qiao Sang coughed.
"The school only allows one pet beast per student, so I only registered you."
"!!!"
Little Treasure clutched his chest with one paw, looking as if he had been shot through the heart.
He shakily extended another paw, just about to use his Beast master of being <i>cold and heartless.</i>
Then Qiao Sang said, "I had no choice. You''re smarter than Yabao and the others, so you''re the only one who can actually understand the lessons."
"Xun..."
Little Treasure froze for a moment, then began to seriously consider the statement.
<i>That seemed... true. He was the smartest, after all.</i>
Qiao Sang continued, "So you''re the most suitable one to go."
"Xun..."
Little Treasure sighed.
Qiao Sang smiled.
"When youe back from ss, I''ll let you y on the phone for an extra hour."
"Xun~"
Little Treasure waved his paw. He had no choice, after all, he was the smartest.
After sessfully fooling Little Treasure, Qiao Sang resumed searching for defensive pet beasts to contract.
Two minutester, a message appeared on her phone screen:
[School Doctor: I reported to the higher-ups. They said they want to meet you tomorrow before making a decision.]
Qiao Sang opened the chat app and typed a reply:
[Okay, what time and where?]
The school doctor replied instantly:
[Just stay in your ssroom. Someone wille get you.]
[Got it, thanks, teacher.]
[School Doctor: It''s my duty. If you ever have any questions, feel free toe to me. You''re always wee.]
<i>That line sounded a little odding from a doctor</i>... Qiao Sang mentallyined but still thanked him again before closing the chat.
Then she remembered something and logged into Sainan High School''s official website.@@novelbin@@
She wanted to check what items could be exchanged for points.
Opening the points exchange section, she saw a long list of unfamiliar items, though thankfully, each had a description.

[Item Name: Sweet Secret Cloak]
Function: Hides the user''s presence by emitting the scent of Sweet Worms, preventing recognition by wild pet beasts even in heavily infested zones like District Ten. ????ǒ??Е?
Notes:
1. Only prevents identification by scent-based pet beasts; those relying on sight will still recognize you immediately.
2. Sweet Worms are the natural enemies of Noisy Sparrows. If you encounter them, remove the cloak immediately, where there is one Noisy Sparrow, there is a whole flock.
3. Crafted by Master Jaden, quality guaranteed.
Points: 150

<i>Wow! A cloak that hides presence from pet beasts? That would be insanely useful for surviving in secret realms!</i>
But then she read the notes and immediately cooled down.
<i>Oh, it only works on scent-based beasts... What a useless gimmick. The vast majority of pet beasts rely on vision!</i>
Qiao Sang lost interest and moved on to the next item.
---
[Item Name: Focus Monocle]
Function: When worn by a pet beast, it automatically locks onto an opponent’s weak spots.
Notes:
1. Fixed size, fits only small pet beasts with a head circumference of about 20 cm.
2. Crafted by Master Zhuhong, quality guaranteed.
Points: 60
---
<i>Now this was useful!</i> Little Treasure could wear it, and maybe even the fourth pet beast in the future.
Qiao Sang nced at the points requirement.
60 points, she currently had 94, so she could afford it.
<i>Wait, how much was 60 points in Alliance currency?</i>
She quickly did the mental conversion.
6 million.
With her unlimited credit card, she could probably buy something like this on the market instead. No need to waste points on it.
If she was going to spend points, it should be on rare items unavable elsewhere.
With that in mind, Qiao Sang continued browsing.
Soon, she spotted the SS-ranked resource Tang Yi had mentioned.

[Item Name: SS-Rank Water Evolution Stone]
Function: Allows certain Water-type pet beasts to evolve.
Notes:
1. Evolution Stones are one-time-use items. It’s best to ensure your pet beast has enough energy before using it.
Points: 500
---
<i>Too bad it’s for Water-types...</i>
Qiao Sang sighed.
Lubao’s entire evolution chain was emotion-based, so she wouldn’t need this at all.
She scrolled on.
Then, her eyes suddenly narrowed as she carefully read the details of a particr item.
---
[Item Name: Dream Enlightenment Stone]
Function: Allows a pet beast to dream of its most suitable next evolution while sleeping.
Notes:
1. Even if you already have an evolution n, you might not have chosen the best option, this stone can confirm or correct your choice.
2. Some pet beasts have dreamed of evolution forms never before recorded in Alliance history. If you suspect your pet has another possible form, this is worth trying.
3. The stone is single-use. It’s rmended to have a pet beast with Dream Projection abilities watch the dream so the evolution form can be urately recorded. Otherwise, if your pet dreams of a brand-new form but can’t describe it, the stone will be wasted.
Points: 1000

<i>Nice. This was perfect for Yabao!</i>
Since Yabao''s evolution form waspletely new, there was no reference to follow.
When he evolved from me Hound to zing Star Canine, she had already been wondering, was this really the only evolution path for me Hounds?
Logically, Yabao shouldn’t have gained Moonlight Power traits, but he did.
If zing Star Canine was just one of several evolution paths, then wouldn''t it also have multiple potential final forms?
Right now, Yabao’s future evolution was aplete unknown. If she used the Dream Enlightenment Stone, at least she’d get some rity.
Qiao Sang nced at her points, and her excitement cooled down slightly.
After returning to the dorm, she had carefully reviewed the school''s points system.
Only the top five students in each subject earned points during exams, with first ce getting just 10 points.
This point system was brutal for someone like her, a self-proimed academic disaster.
If she relied solely on academics, she might not even earn a single point by graduation.
