Seeing that Yu Huang had finally come out, Sheng Xiao walked up to her quickly. He sized her up and asked, “Did the Grand State Master make things difficult for you?”

Yu Huang shook her head. “No, we should go to the horse ranch.”

Sheng Xiao was relieved to see that Yu Huang was really safe. Although he was curious about the reason why the Grand State Master left Yu Huang alone, he would not ask further.

When they arrived at the racecourse, the competition was about to begin. After Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao separated, she went to the treatment building alone.

Anna Tao was eating breakfast, which was quite sumptuous.

Seeing Yu Huang come, Anna Tao hurriedly handed her two small steamed buns that had yet to be touched. “Yu Huang, try them. The Emperor Dowager sent them over. You should try them too.”

Yu Huang took the bun and took a bite. She didn’t think it tasted very delicious. She ate the steamed buns with a lot on her mind. She was still hesitant about telling Anna Tao the truth.

Anna Tao was also curious as to whether Yu Huang had gained anything from her trip to the Myriad Book Pavilion last night, but she didn’t dare to ask. The two of them finished their breakfast with different thoughts. Yu Huang got up and washed her hands before coming over with a wet towel to wipe Anna Tao’s hands.

Anna Tao obediently stayed put. When Yu Huang wiped her hands clean, she said, “You have something on your mind.”

Yu Huang glanced at Anna Tao but said nothing.

She went to the bathroom to wash the towel and dry it before walking to the bed and sitting down. Yu Huang took Anna Tao’s hand and told her, “I found information about your beast form.”

Anna Tao nodded calmly. “What is it?”

“It is not an ant, but a mutated beast form called the Devouring Beast. Only one in every hundred thousand ant beast forms has a chance of awakening.”

Anna Tao frowned. She was confused. “Is this thing capable of anything?”

It was very capable.

“Anna, your beast form is quite special. This thing is neither good nor evil. It’s not easy to judge.”

Neither good nor evil?

Anna Tao’s expression became serious. She asked Yu Huang, “What is this Devouring Beast? Yu Huang, tell me the truth directly. I can bear it.”

“Okay.” After nodding, Yu Huang told Anna Tao the characteristics and strength of the Mutated Devouring Beast.

When Anna Tao found out that her beast form could actually devour the spiritual energy of others to increase her cultivation, her heart suddenly beat faster. Because she was too excited, her originally sickly face instantly flushed red.

Yu Huang grabbed Anna Tao’s hand and said sternly, “Anna, there are some shortcuts that you can’t take. If you really devour the spiritual power of others to increase your cultivation, you will become the enemy of the entire cultivation world!”

Anna Tao instantly sobered up.

She held Yu Huang’s finger back with a conflicted expression on her face. When she thought about what had happened to her in the Beast Tamer Academy over the past half a year, her eyes turned red.

She told Yu Huang, “Do you know, Yu Huang, the cultivation world is really a cold and real world. In the six months I’ve been in the Beast Tamer Academy, I’ve been very unhappy. Those Beast Tamers with powerful beast forms always look at me as if I’m trash. When those boys talk about me, their tone is always frivolous and vulgar. Those girls will also bully me secretly.”

“Just because I was born into an ordinary family without any power or status, and I even have the publicly acknowledged useless beast form, does that mean I deserve to be bullied?” Anna Tao was too agitated. She lost control of her hand and squeezed Yu Huang’s hand directly.

Yu Huang’s heart ached for Anna Tao. She couldn’t persuade Anna Tao to be kind and let go of her past. She had to embrace the future with a cheerful mindset.

Because she didn’t experience it, she had no right to.

“Because I was weak and had no one to rely on, Xuanyuan Sisi was able to publicly humiliate me at the screening test yesterday! I wanted to become more powerful even in my dreams! I want to not be bullied!”

As she spoke, tears flowed down Anna Tao’s face. She asked Yu Huang for help in pain, “Yu Huang, I also want to be a good person, but becoming powerful is too tempting for me. Tell me, what can I do to suppress my desire?”

Yu Huang was speechless.

At that moment, she suddenly regretted it. Perhaps she should not have told Anna Tao the truth about the Mutated Devouring Beast.

“Anna, I know it’s unfair to you to let go of the humiliation you’ve suffered in the past, but I want to tell you that no matter how others humiliate you, there will always be a group of people who love you and hope for you to be well.”

“For example, me, the class monitor, and Vivian.”

Hearing this, the protection and love Zhu Nuowen, Jiang Shangfeng, and Vivian had for her flashed across Anna Tao’s mind. At that moment, a ray of light suddenly appeared in her distorted and dark heart.

The light did not scatter the darkness, but it also made her feel a hint of warmth. “Yu Huang, I promise you that I will try my best not to be a bad person.”

Yu Huang pressed Anna Tao into her arms and stroked her hair. She sighed. “I believe in you. Rest well and try to get a good result next month. I have to go back soon. See you when my college entrance examination is over.”

“Okay.”

After Yu Huang left, Anna Tao released her beast form. She observed the engulfing beast with a complicated gaze. Thousands of thoughts flashed across her mind. Every thought made her blood boil. In the end, she suppressed them.

She wanted to work hard to be a good person for those who loved her.

After returning to Prosperous Capital, Yu Huang’s life became boring again. She spent all her time dealing with exam papers and revision materials. Gradually, those questions that were unfamiliar and complicated to her became easy to understand.

A week before the college entrance examination, Lin Jiansheng wrote a set of college entrance examination papers for Yu Huang according to the pattern set by previous years.

His guess was very accurate. Most of the questions he gave would appear on the college entrance examination papers.

However, Lin Jiansheng did not tell Yu Huang this. When he threw the test paper to Yu Huang, he only said, “This is the test paper I bought for you at the bookstore. Let me see it.”

Yu Huang was very serious about every paper. After she received the paper, she did not say anything. She opened the cap of her pen and started to do the questions.

After completing the exam paper, Yu Huang was really sleepy. She fell asleep the moment she laid her head down. When she woke up, there was a set of exam papers by the bed. On it were Lin Jiansheng’s comments and marks.

Mathematics, 100; Literature, 98; World Language, 100; Morals and Law, 98; History, 99; Biology, 100; Chemistry, 100.

Recently, she had been doing too many exam papers. Yu Huang performed very well every time. Hence, when she saw this outstanding score, Yu Huang’s mood did not fluctuate at all.

She thought that the college entrance examination would definitely be more difficult. She could not be complacent just because she performed well.

The college entrance examination oath was held three days before the college entrance examination. That day, Yu Huang also returned to school. After the oath, the homeroom teacher, Li Shi, called her to the side and asked her about her gains from studying in Jingdu for a year. “How is it, Yu Huang? You’ve been studying in Jingdu for more than half a year. Have you improved?”

Yu Huang nodded lightly and told Li Shi, “I’ve gained a lot. It shouldn’t be a problem for me to become the top scholar.”

Li Shi was speechless.

He felt that Yu Huang was most likely studying so hard that she had lost her mind.

Li Shi patted Yu Huang’s shoulder with a heavy heart and consoled her. “Yu Huang, the college entrance examination is not your only way out. You… just take it easy.”

Yu Huang, filled with ambition, looked at Li Shi with a determined gaze. She said, “Teacher, don’t worry. I will definitely give you a top scorer trophy for the college entrance examination. I will place it on your desk later!”

Oh no, this child was really out of her mind.
