Godly Empress Doctor

751-760

751 Exposed

As soon as the mother beast charged forward at tremendous speed —

Splurt —

There was a strange sound.

Looking over her shoulder, Feng Wu saw that sure enough, the thread had indeed left a deep cut in the beast's throat.

Feng Wu's heart sank. The hides of Spiny Frost Beasts were thicker than she expected!

Before the mother beast could recover from the shock, Feng Wu charged at it with her Flaming Sword in hand! She was unbelievably fast!

Whoosh!

She followed with another slash to the beast's throat.

Its skin was really hard to cut through, but thanks to that Ice Thread, there was already an existing open wound in its throat.

Feng Wu only had to make it larger!

The mother beast stared at Feng Wu in disbelief!

That was impossible...

How could this be?

Up until its death, it still couldn't believe that it was going to be killed by this human girl!

The family of three had been so confident of victory that they had underestimated the girl.

But —

She was actually able to —

Krrr...

The mother beast tried to make a sound to warn its husband of this sinister and crafty human girl, but —

Before she could make a sound, Feng Wu's Flaming Sword swung down once more!

She slashed a third time!

Whoosh!

The mother beast's head rolled off its shoulders.

And it didn't even have time to close its eyes.

Just then —

The father beast jumped out of the pit.

And the first thing it saw was the head rolling around on the ground.

At that moment —

The father beast's head went blank!

That was impossible!

He couldn't believe it!

One of its eyes had been hurt by the explosion, but it could still see.

Its partner was...

Looking up, the beast stared at Feng Wu with a savage look on its face, its remaining eye spitting flames of hatred!

"Roar!" The father beast went berserk!

Feng Wu smiled coldly.

Three Spiny Frost Beasts were too much for her to handle all at once, but there was only one left now.

And this one was already injured.

Just as the beast pounced at Feng Wu —

Feng Wu activated all her spiritual essence and acted like a real Level 5 Spiritual Grandmaster!

All the spiritual energy around her was sucked into her body.

And she slashed at the beast with Flaming Sword!

It was a bloody and relentless battle.

One human, one beast. Both tried to kill the other.

This Spiny Frost Beast was a Level 5 Spiritual Grandmaster as well.

But it was injured.

In the pine tree grove on the vast snowfield —

The girl and the beast both gave as good as they got.

It wasn't so obvious at first, but —

Before long, Feng Wu had gotten the upper hand!

Thud!

Flaming Sword pierced the beast's chest!


The beast's spiritual essence surged out toward Feng Wu's headband!

Two stars lit up when Feng Wu killed the mother beast.

With the father beast dead, another two stars lit up!

Feng Wu was baffled when she realized this.

Was it that easy to light up the stars?

But!

Feng Wu's stomach turned and she mumbled, "My secret will be exposed when they see my stars lit up."

752 Concealment 

They had just been thrown in and the other candidates probably hadn't started hunting magical beasts yet.

What was more, they might not yet know what was going on.

But she had obtained four stars right away. Wouldn't that be a bit too...

Just then, Feng Wu heard a voice in her head.

"Xiao Wu, do you need to conceal your stars?"

It was Grand Secretary Fang!

That was...

Right on time! Grand Secretary Fang was such a friend in need!

"Yes!" Feng Wu said affirmatively.

"Alright." And that ended the conversation.

But Feng Wu knew that no other words were needed. Grand Secretary Fang would take care of everything for her.

That was a very reliable old man.

Imperial College.

There was a board in the college, where the teachers could see the real-time ranking of the candidates.

The system would score and rank all 1000 students according to their performances.

This was the restricted area and only the seven bosses were allowed inside.

Right now, there were only two people here.

One was Grand Secretary Fang, the acting principal.

And the other one was Priest Wu.

As for the other bosses...

They had no interest in or the time to pay attention to this tryout.

Even if they did care, they would only show up on the last day.

Priest Wu rubbed his eyes. "Old Fang, am I seeing things? Why did I see Feng Wu's name jump to the top just then?"

Grand Secretary Fang said, "Yes, you were seeing things."

"I was?"

Priest Wu found it rather odd. He swore he had seen Feng Wu's name at the very top, but the next second, it wasn't there.

How strange...

Grand Secretary Fang smiled a little.

He had only been granted this level of clearance after he became the acting principal, and he could manipulate the system a little.

"Old Fang, your granddaughter is doing a good job. She's second already."

Priest Wu pointed at the screen.

There were two screens on the wall.

The one on the left showed what the candidates were doing in Proud Snowfield at that very moment, and Grand Secretary Fang had full control over the system. He would only have to think of the candidate's name and the person would show up on the screen.

And a rectangular screen on the right had the candidates' names on it.

It only showed the first 200, for those ranked below 200 were meaningless to Imperial College.

Every year, only 100 candidates were admitted, and that had never changed.

Grand Secretary Fang looked at the screen on the right at Priest Wu's words.

He was right. Mu Yaoyao's name had indeed risen to second.

The first was a teenager called Xuanyuan Yi.

Grand Secretary Fang's gaze brushed past Mu Yaoyao's name and lingered on Xuanyuan Yi instead.

"The Xuanyuan family always produces promising candidates." Grand Secretary Fang nodded.


Priest Wu nodded. "After all, the Xuanyuan family is one of the nine major clans and they have more capable members than we can count. It's only normal that one of their youngsters should stand out, or they'll be a joke.

"Zhangsun Jing isn't bad either. She's ranked third." Priest Wu smiled. "They only just entered and Xuanyuan Yi has already obtained three stars. Zhangsun Jing has two. We have some high-quality candidates this year."

Grand Secretary Fang nodded and agreed with Priest Wu. Although... getting three stars and two stars was nothing. Xiao Wu had four already. It was only that Grand Secretary Fang had acted quickly and concealed her name right away!
