Animal-eared Girl Era: Start by Forming a Contract with an SSS-Class School Belle

The middle-aged man in the examiner's uniform had been sent from a superior base city to supervise the exam. His realm had already surpassed Grandmaster, yet when he saw Yu Yaqian and Miss Huo laughing so hard their bellies hurt, his expression didn't change a bit.

Back when he first heard this news a few years ago, he'd lost it laughing too, but as everyone got used to it, he'd gotten used to it as well.

In the superior base cities, everyone called Wilderness Base City the "dead-last squatter"! They had put down roots in last place and just couldn't be pulled out!

Pimple-faced Miss Huo laughed with utter disdain, "With my SS-rank Dinosaur Sister template, of course I'll take first place in this base city!"

Right after, she transformed into her Beast-Eared Girl form—the Dinosaur Resistance Lady!

The Dinosaur Girl, her ears turned into something different, a tail stretched out from behind her, and her teeth grew into gnarly dinosaur fangs—total Dinosaur Sister vibes!

"Awoo!" she bared her teeth and let out two roars.

"Nice! That's the Dinosaur Resistance Lady for you, scary as hell, combat power off the charts!" the examiner in uniform clapped his hands and cheered.

Yu Yaqian, mouth twitching, said, "I was hoping to collect a list of the talents of this year's Wilderness Base City Awakeners, but looks like I don't need to bother now!"

The middle-aged examiner in uniform agreed, "Like a bottom-of-the-barrel base city is gonna produce some prodigy, no need to bother!"

"All right, Yu, Miss Huo, the exam's about to start. You two should head to the testing site, I gotta go supervise."

"Mm, let's roll, Toothpick!" The Dinosaur Beast-Eared Girl dragged Yu Yaqian to the exam area.

In the huge square of Wilderness Academy,

ten thousand meters above the ground, an absolutely stunning Kunpeng Beast-Eared Girl with a flawless face lounged contentedly among the clouds, looking truly happy as she said,

"So warm! Finally got a good night's sleep yesterday—Si Yao finally chilled out for once!"

Suddenly she grit her teeth and growled, "Seriously, Si Yao? She knows I'm a thousand-year-old single dog, and she still asks me stuff like that!"

*Did Si Yao seriously think I was some kind of tramp? Hmph! It cost me a thousand years of being a virgin, you think that was for nothing?*

As she spoke, the Kunpeng Beast-Eared Girl turned her gaze down at the testing ground below.

Below.

On the flat ground, each examinee's number marked a spot. The candidates stood one meter apart, each in their assigned place.

Xiao Ye showed up at spots 95, 96, and 97 with two girls; Xiao Ye took number 96.

Nangong Siyao and Cheng Bingxi, renowned school beauties from First High and Third High, drew every examinee's attention the moment they appeared.

"That's the heiress school beauty, and she's standing right in front of me, I'm freaking out!"

"Is that the Devilish School Beauty? Her face actually healed, holy crap! She is next-level hot."

"Heh, you Third High guys, your Devilish School Beauty already has a boyfriend—I just wanna know which lucky bastard gets our heiress beauty!"

"Why don't you go for it? Maybe she'll fall for you at first sight."

Suddenly, a Youth Training Camp examinee a bit farther away cut in, "Go for what, bro? Heiress Beauty's taken! Y'all gotta start calling her Missus now!"

"What? Our whole First High's dream girl's married now?"

"Swear to god! Everyone at the Youth Training Camp knows! You know Yi Luren? Our goddess got snatched, and he was so pissed he quit the whole Camp!"

All the nearby First High candidates looked stunned; the boys were straight up howling in despair.

"Ah! My goddess is a married woman now!"

"Ah! Which bastard actually slept with our heiress beauty!"

Right then, an unexpectedly clear and assertive voice rang out, "Everybody, quiet down!"

Everyone looked for the source and saw Nangong Siyao, with her magnificent frame, standing hands on hips as she said,

"So what if I'm married? I'm proud of it!"

"Anyone else talks about Xiao Ye hubby, and I'll string him up and smack his butt raw!"

*Wait, the goddess stepped out just to stop people talking about Xiao Ye? Who even is Xiao Ye?*

"Wait, Xiao Ye's the boyfriend of our Third High Devilish School Beauty!"

"Goddammit, he's actually goddamned! He snagged both school beauties!"

First High examinees were shell-shocked. Xiao Ye, scumbag? No, godfather!

Boys from both First and Third High let out a collective wail!

A Dinosaur Beast-Eared Girl led an immaculately dressed boy up in front of Xiao Ye and Nangong Siyao. When she heard everyone gossiping, the Dinosaur Girl just sneered and muttered,

"Heiress beauty? Devilish beauty? What a joke. These examinees are talking about anything but the exam! No wonder they finish dead last every year!"

The immaculately dressed Yu Yaqian nodded, totally agreeing, "How pretty could a base-city high school beauty in backwater Wilderness Base City actually be, anyway?"

The Dinosaur Beast-Eared Girl nodded right back, "Exactly!"

Yu Yaqian followed everyone's line of sight to Nangong Siyao and Cheng Bingxi in the back, and he completely froze! This соpy wаs gеnеrаtеd frоm соntеnt аt МV|LЕМРYR.

Damn! Damn, those girls are insane!

Two drop-dead gorgeous girls, like porcelain lotus flowers rising out of the water!

The Dinosaur Beast-Eared Girl took one look behind her and froze too, her tone going sour like she'd swallowed a lemon, "So what if they're pretty? My SS-rank Dinosaur Resistance Lady crushes them both!"

Yu Yaqian kept staring, so the Dinosaur Girl forcibly turned his head back, grumbling, "You perv! Got a girlfriend and you're still checking out other chicks!"

Yu Yaqian shook his head, glanced at the Dinosaur Girl, and thought to himself,

*Sure, Wilderness Base City's got trash candidates, but damn if their looks aren't wild!*

*But no matter how hot they are, it doesn't change the fact that all these examinees are trash!* He shot them a scornful look.

Half an hour later, all candidates were in place, and five pairs of examiners in uniform showed up—five men, five women.

One pair channeled their Contractual Power and transformed into Summoned Beasts—an S-rank template Pterosaur!

"Kree!!"

The Pterosaur, wings spread to a hundred meters wide, soared into the sky. A raspy voice echoed out from its body, reverberating across the whole field.

"All candidates from Wilderness Base City are now in position!"

"There are two parts to the college entrance exam. First, you'll be tested on your realm; second, your combat ability!"

"First round, begin!"

The Pterosaur's claws held a circular pillar that suddenly gleamed with a dazzling light, which shot downward and enveloped all the examinees on the massive square.

All the candidates felt a warm current sweep through them. And just like that, round one was over.

Each examinee was shrouded in dazzling brilliance. Then they heard the Pterosaur's voice, "The first round is over. Round two, begin! Void God Tower's virtual world, defend against the Beast Tide!"

As it finished speaking, a flash of white light swept before every examinee's eyes, and they found themselves standing in a vast plain.

"Combat ability test begins! While defending against the Beast Tide, you can use human form, Beast Girl form, or Summoned Beast form—score's based on how each pair of Contractors performs in battle!"

The Pterosaur's raspy voice echoed in all their ears.

And then,

"BOOM!!!" All the examinees felt the very heavens and earth shudder at that moment.

At the front of the plain, towers of black dust shot skyward, and swarms of Demon Beasts charged straight at them.
