Chapter 17 The Eve of the Exam

  Insufficient balance

  Have to admit, Lin Tianxue really has a talent for imitation. The first time she imitated a maid, whether it was the dynamics or the demeanor, it had an authenticity of about 80-90%.

  "Master, I'm sorry, please forgive me!" reached Zheng Feng's ears.

  Zheng Feng looked at Lin Tianxue in surprise, unable to connect her with the person who had just been speaking loudly.

  They, one standing on the pit, looking down with his head bowed; another standing in the pit, looking up with his head raised.

  One looked surprised, the other pitiful.

  Their eyes locked in a stalemate, each with their own thoughts.

  Zheng Feng thought: No wonder those nobles always like to have a few maids at home, the voice and tone just now were indeed quite moving, with a bit of an ethereal feeling. When I grow up, I'll keep one too.

  Lin Tianxue thought: This big villain, after I go up, you will know my power, and I must make Father King behead you. No, beheading is too cheap for him, I want to make him his own servant, bully him for a lifetime to relieve the hatred in my heart.

  ......

  "Empress Dowager!!!!! Empress Dowager!!!!! Where are you? If you can hear us, please respond~~~~~~~~~~~"

  "Long Princess~~~~"

  "Empress Dowager, where are you? Empress Dowager, where are you?~~~~!!"

  "Empress Dowager, we beg of you, please respond to us, Empress Dowager~~~~~~~"

  ......

  Just as Zheng Feng and Lin Tianxue's eyes were locked in a stare, a shout suddenly came from afar. Many torches could be seen flickering in the distance, floating between the trees, slowly moving towards them.

  The two who heard the shouting voice changed their expressions in an instant

  Zheng Feng's face sank as he thought of what trouble might be brewing and shouted at Ya.

  "Teeth!!!"

  Ya and Zheng Feng have been together for more than two years, of course, she understood what Zheng Feng meant, so she immediately stood up.

  Meow!!!!!

  Only saw the body of the teeth rapidly enlarged, and soon became as large as an adult tiger.

  Zheng Feng also ignored Lin Tianxue and jumped onto the back of Ya.

  As soon as Zheng Feng rode up, he immediately jumped over the deep ditch and plunged into the pitch-black forest with a "whoosh" sound. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the depths of the forest, leaving no trace behind.

  Lin Tianxue couldn't see the scene in the pit, but after hearing the servants' shouts, she was about to respond when a huge black shadow suddenly jumped over her head, blocking out the last of the night sky. Just as she was about to shout out, she was interrupted and stood there stupidly, and it wasn't until she came back to her senses that she realized the big villain had already run away.

  "You're a complete and utter scoundrel!!! I won't let you off the hook! Absolutely not!!! I'll definitely catch you! You just wait!! Ah~~~~!"

  Lin Tianxue's sharp roar echoed from the deep valley, constantly reverberating and drifting in the dark forest.

  The servants nearby also heard this angry roar.

  ......

  At this moment, Zheng Feng had already ridden his horse out of the forest, seemingly not hearing that angry roar filled with grief and indignation. Even if he did hear it, he probably wouldn't have taken it seriously anyway.

  After leaving the forest, Zheng Feng jumped down from Ya's back. Ya gradually shrunk back to its original size, but didn't stop until it was the size of a palm. Now, except for its fur color, Ya looked no different from two years ago - just a small cat with white hair on its neck and black and yellow stripes on its body. After shrinking, Ya burrowed into Zheng Feng's clothes, which appeared unchanged on the surface.

  Zheng Feng originally watched as Ya grew bigger and bigger every day, but he didn't like it when Ya transformed into a beast pattern and attached to his body, which was very inconvenient to carry around. So he complained to Ya about it. Who knew that after listening to Zheng Feng's words, Ya's body would shrink back down to its original size, causing Zheng Feng to be shocked on the spot. In the following days, he also discovered that Ya could not only shrink but also grow bigger, although growing bigger consumed a lot of beast soul power and couldn't be maintained for long. However, shrinking didn't seem to consume anything different, so for convenience, Zheng Feng usually ordered Ya to maintain its small cat appearance except when training.

  Zheng Feng returned to the dormitory of the Imperial Capital Orphanage. The room was no different from two years ago, with only one change: the number of people had decreased from 15 to 13 again. The others seemed to have gotten used to Zheng Feng's late return. Xiao Xiu had warned Zheng Feng not to overuse his teeth, or he would fall into a deep sleep. However, Zheng Feng did not follow Xiao Xiu's instructions, because he felt that the hazy days were much better than the clear ones. After all, when he was asleep, the Beast Soul Force would automatically maintain his body's needs, and he didn't even need to eat.

  So he would often take his teeth to the back mountain for training, not because he wanted to become a powerful beast soul master, but just to waste his beast soul power, fall asleep, and then open his eyes to find that several weeks had passed.

  For the past two years, what has taken up Zheng Feng's time the most is sleeping. Xiao Xiu saw that Zheng Feng did not heed his warnings and was not angry, but instead had a mysterious smile on his face as he went about his life however he pleased.

  Recently, Zheng Feng found that his sleeping time seemed to be getting shorter and shorter. From initially sleeping for a whole month, it gradually changed to 3 weeks, and now it's about half a month. When he was awake, he had more free time, so he looked for things to do to pass the time. Eating was his only hobby, but as a result, his teeth were ruined. He regretted not keeping his beloved roasted rabbit all to himself instead of sharing it with his teeth.

  After what happened with Lin Tian Xue today, the wasted beast soul power was more than ever before. Although he took a nap in the afternoon, it was all consumed by his transformation just now. Zheng Feng only felt extremely tired and soon fell asleep on the bed.

  But this time Zheng Feng forgot one very important thing, next week is his 7-year-old's first Beast Soul Power test. Is it possible for him to wake up in this state before the test?!

  ......

  Xiao Xiu Zheng sat on the wooden chair in the principal's office, staring out of the window with a distracted expression, thinking about something. He muttered to himself: "Tomorrow is the Beast Soul test, and that kid Zheng Feng is still sleeping, I really don't know if he'll make it on time. If he doesn't wake up within today, even if I have to drag him out of bed, I'll make sure he's awake by tomorrow morning."

  The next day

  The annual Beast Soul Power test is not held in the orphanage, nor is it only for children from the Imperial Orphanage. Every year at this time, the Beast Soul Power test is held in the central square of Tianlong City, the Imperial Palace Square. On that day, the Empire's Tiān Hún Academy will send someone to preside over the Beast Soul Power test, and His Majesty Lin Lie will also be present to inspect, demonstrating fairness.

  Because the children who participated in the Beast Soul Power test that day were not divided by class, there were commoner children, rich merchant children, noble children, orphanage children, and even street urchins. As long as you met the age requirements, you could come to the imperial palace for testing, and no one dared to stop you. If your talent was recognized by the empire, you would soar to great heights, so most of the children who took the test were from commoner families, they all wanted to rely on this opportunity to escape their poor lives and enter the noble circle.

  Of course, the children of the Imperial Orphanage were treated specially, no matter what their talents were, they had to stay in the orphanage until they were ten years old.

  Moreover, it is said that this year's test, both of Your Majesty's two little princesses will take the test, and it will definitely be more lively than in previous years. The two little princesses of Your Majesty are a pair of twins. Born only a few seconds apart, one became the older sister, and the other naturally became the younger sister.

  Princess Lin Tianxue is lively and lovely, worships the strong, deeply favored by Your Majesty and loved by all the servants.

  The Second Princess Lin Tianyu is gentle and kind, evoking sympathy and affection from others. She is also favored by Your Majesty and loved by the servants.

  Of course, this is just a rumor. The common people do not know what the real princess is like, so when they heard that the two little princesses would be taking the test, even more people came today. Gossip and curiosity are forever human "vices".

  ......

  A registrar looked at him in puzzlement and asked the temporary leader of the Tianlong Castle Orphanage, "Where is your dean?"

  In the past, every time it was led by Xiao Xiu himself, but today he doesn't seem to have come. That's why the registration staff asked this question.

  The temporary leader of the monks replied, "There's a child in the orphanage who has had an accident. The director is dealing with it right now. He told us to go ahead and not worry, he'll catch up later."
