Chapter 13.2

Entrance Exam (2)

If she weren’t a human cub but a normal woman cohabiting with this beastman…

Based on her response, something that would require locking the chapter might happen next.

It was too terrifying.

Mu Le calmly swallowed the steamed egg and skillfully concealed her thoughts. “It’s alright. He’s just… my desk mate.”

The pronunciation of “desk mate” was something she had just learned from Bu Ke today.

Gu Mingyuan made a sound of acknowledgement but didn’t say anything more.

Mu Le tried to steal glances at him while eating, fearing being caught by him. She could only quickly shift her gaze back to the brightly colored dishes not far away.

Gu Mingyuan: “…”

Indeed, his level of attention and possessiveness towards this little one was increasing day by day.

Although it was difficult to explain these emotions, at this moment, he believed his mindset should be to prevent his child from making friends with “bad kids.”

That alligator had already entered primary school, yet its mouth was full of sharp beast-like teeth. When it hugged Mu Le, its alligator tail wagged behind its buttocks like a happy little dog. Even though it had the audacity to greet him boldly, it still scurried away with its tail tucked between its legs when it saw him.

In any case, it was clear that it wasn’t a mature and well-behaved alligator.

…If Mu Le knew about his thought process, she would definitely tease him.

Wake up! She had only just started first grade!

Who cares about being mature!

Only your unparalleled and extraordinary human child would feel out of place among those ordinary kids because they were “too mature.”

…

Mu Le’s first-grade life lasted less than a day.

The next morning, they had the entrance exam, and at noon, the results of the children were sent to the parents via the light brain.

It was because of this exam that Mu Le came to know why Bu Ke mentioned Gu Mingyuan’s plan for her to go to school when she asked him to translate for her.

In the examination room, the spirits couldn’t come out.

Each seat was equipped with a small box. She didn’t know the principle behind it, but the presence of these boxes caused great distress to the spirits. The only solution was to temporarily confine the spirits inside the boxes before they were activated.

… It could be considered a signal blocker for the spirits.

With the presence of these signal blockers, Mu Le had to rely completely on herself to answer the questions.

Fortunately, she was a diligent learner. Although her handwriting in the interstellar language was still a bit crooked, it was more than enough for solving first-grade problems.

After completing each subject’s test, there would be an advanced version of the test.

For children who didn’t want to skip a grade, they could simply give up after finishing the test. However, for those who wanted to skip a grade, it was like playing a level-based game, going through one test after another.

Since it was a comprehensive evaluation, Mu Le stopped working on the math test until the fifth sheet. As for other subjects, only “Interstellar Language” had a proper test, and Mu Le reluctantly completed four sheets. She intentionally answered the fourth sheet in a crooked and messy manner.

The remaining subjects were small and seemingly useless, designed to facilitate the comprehensive development of children’s moral, intellectual, physical, and artistic abilities.

It is worth mentioning that there were no physical education classes in the school, only “Rest and Recreation Classes.”

Due to the significant differences in athletic abilities and talents among children of different races, it was impossible to teach physical education together.

The school divided the students into several natural environments based on different racial characteristics and built sports arenas accordingly. The children were then allowed to freely run around in these artificial natural environments.

Rest and Recreation Classes couldn’t be examined, but tests were still given. The exam content revolved around various environments and equipment found in the sports arenas.

The main purpose was to assess whether these children had been actively exploring the “natural environments.”

… For Mu Le, it was essentially a geography test.

Unfortunately, there were too many unfamiliar words in the questions, and Mu Le could only write randomly.

Little did she know that the test paper she wrote would cause a small-scale commotion in the school.

Since all test papers were anonymous, the teachers had no idea who had filled out this particular paper. They had no choice but to report the paper directly to the school leadership in hopes of discovering the true identity of the student.

The math teacher who graded the paper even went as far as calling her a once-in-a-century child prodigy.

The school leadership, who knew that Mu Le was a human but had signed a confidentiality agreement, was at a loss for words. They couldn’t say or ask anything, so they could only forward the “good news” from the teachers to Gu Mingyuan.

Gu Mingyuan received many messages within a day. It was only the second day his child had gone to school, and so many things had already happened.

Although Gu Mingyuan felt proud of Mu Le’s academic performance, he didn’t pay too much attention to it. His attention was drawn to another message.

It was regarding the classification based on body size.

Mu Le was classified as an infant in the 1.2-1.5 meter range.

Gu Mingyuan furrowed his brow, deep in thought. Once he returned home, he called the butler robot to measure Mu Le’s height.

The barrel-shaped robot scanned Mu Le and directly sent the data to Gu Mingyuan’s neural implant.

… Her height without shoes, 1.24 meters.

So it wasn’t just Kong He’an’s misconception, nor was it the school’s arbitrary classification. The little one… had really grown up.

In just a few short days.
