Chapter 220
Edited by Aelryinth
Time flew by . Another four days passed .
The thirty-sixth year, the sixth of July of the new age…
It was the last day of the tests organized by all of the high schools in the Hua Xia region aimed towards beastmaster-students .
In the hunting zone in the beast world behind the Jin City’s spatial gateway, this extremely vast area had basically been fully explored by the examinees over the past half a month .
Due to the differences in their strength and luck, their results naturally differed .
Although Zheng Hongru’s group of four had a few decent beast cards left behind by their leader, Zhang Che, the cards weren’t too powerful after all . Their gains in the last ten days could only be considered average .
With such results, they had no hopes of enrolling into the top universities .
However, to them, who were originally the most ordinary Tier Two beastmasters, being able to enroll into an average university was already something to be celebrated .
Thus, they didn’t care that there were still a few more hours before the hunt officially ended . After discussion, the four immediately turned around and left the deep parts of the hunting zone, heading back towards the rendezvous location .
“The reason we were able to obtain such good results this time was all thanks to the beast cards Brother Che left for us . So, I have decided to make a trip to Qian Wei City to visit Brother Che’s mother after the test ends . What about you guys?” Zheng Hongru looked to the others as they continued walking .
“Of course I’m going . There’s still a month’s time before the pre-school-term-commencement training anyway . I want to go see what the place Brother Che lives at looks like . ”
“Right, right . Do you still have to ask? Of course we’re going!”
“Mmm, I’m going, too . ”
Xiao Yi, Li Da, and Sun Zhi nodded one after another after hearing Zheng Hongru’s question .
Over the past few days, under Huang Tielan’s arrangements, Sun Lan had settled down in Bei Du City . During this time, Huang Tielan brought her to all of the major hospitals in Bei Du, to see if there were any other methods of curing her illness .
The results were disappointing . After examinations from all the hospitals, the conclusion they got was the same as before . Unless there were new breakthroughs in genetic technology and a better genetic restoration medicine was developed, her condition could only be kept under control for three years with the current genetic restoration medicine .
Of course, the doctors from all the different hospitals also proposed a different solution, and that was to have an extremely rarely-seen healing-type beast heal her . It had a very high chance of curing her illness .
The efforts made during these days were pretty much for naught .

Sun Lan couldn’t help but feel discouraged . On the other hand, Huang Tielan told her firmly, “Don’t worry, Auntie . I’ll be taking my practical test at the middle of this month . Once I pass the practical test and become a beast card cultivation student in Bei Du University, I can ask Professor Sun Qilong to help . At that time, your illness will surely be cured . ”
Only four days passed, and Miss Tienan seemed like she grew another size smaller . Her weight was already less than seventy-five kilograms . Although she still looked slightly overweight, she was over a hundred and eighty centimeters, and it was nothing .
Moreover, her skeleton was slightly bigger than ordinary girls . Her current figure was already well proportioned .
After learning the relevant information from her father, Huang Tielan actually knew that there was no hope of Zhang Che being alive . However, her subconscious mind refused to believe this . This period of time had actually been a torture for her .
It was also why she lost close to fifteen kilograms in barely two weeks .
Of course, she didn’t tell this to Sun Lan . She was afraid that the latter wouldn’t be able to take it . Instead, she told her what she hoped: that Zhang Che might not necessarily be in trouble, and that he would surely return, preventing Sun Lan’s spirit from crumbling .
“Time passed by really quickly these days . Another four days passed before I knew it,” Zhang Che lamented, sitting under the ferocious beast’s skeleton, calculating his gains for the past few days .
During the past four days, he had used this majestic mountain as the center and hunted three-stars and above exotic beasts within only a three hundred kilometer radius . He didn’t think of going to hunt for high quality beast cards, only concentrating on “gaining experience” to raise his beastmaster tier to Tier Five as soon as possible .
In the end, advancing to Tier Five was still quite a distance away . However, his fusion skill successfully increased to level three .

This was all thanks to the abundant three-star exotic beasts in this area, and finding identical groups of exotic beasts was common . Otherwise, it really wouldn’t be easy to increase it to level three .
Now that fusion was at level three, he could fuse identical four-star cards to make five-stars . The two four-star Psychedelic Ghost-Patterned Butterflies in Zhang Che’s spiritual sea could finally be fused into five-stars .
However, what troubled Zhang Che endlessly was that his beastmaster tier was only Tier Four right now . He estimated that he needed at least a week’s time to advance, and that was if his luck was good, able to hunt a certain amount of four and five-stars exotic beasts every day .
“Going forward, I still have to continue working hard!”
Zhang Che knew that Sun Lan and Huang Tielan must be very worried about him . He had also struggled with these thoughts on multiple occasions, wondering if he should ignore all of this and find his way back to Mercury .
“However, I have already stayed here for over ten days . What’s a few days more? After leaving here, it would be hard to find another place with such rich exotic beast resources and a high safety factor to raise my beastmaster tier to Tier Five in the future . ” Zhang Che was naturally aware that the skeleton behind him was the reason that he only truly met with danger once during all this time, which was when he left it behind when he was chasing the Poison Fire Twin-Headed Dragon .
If he was at any other place, God knew how many dangers he would have faced .
As such, a chance like this to quickly raise his beastmaster tier in peace was truly a once-in-century opportunity!
In the end, he could only steel his mind . -I disappeared without a trace since that strange incident . Everyone must have thought that I’m already dead, right?
-Since that is the case, I can only let mom and the others grieve for a little longer . -
