Shen Rui, a dog, said something that couldn't be taken seriously: "To buy a golden flowerpot and then pay in installments to show off, how hypocritical."
Yu Ya rolled her eyes so hard they practically reached the sky: "They're just being nice to Hua Hua, who gave you the right to object?"
The testing center has a total of thirty detectors. The detectors are somewhat like giant thermometers, with levels marked on them. When you put a mutated beast on one, a red line will rise from the bottom, indicating the level of the mutated beast.
Cheng Anlang stood in one of the detector lines. In front of Cheng Anlang was a boy with dyed yellow hair named Lan Deqi. He was very interested in Cheng Dahua and kept talking to Cheng Anlang.
Lan Deqi: "Your flower has a truly extraordinary temperament, both domineering and noble."
Cheng Anlang: Using a golden flowerpot certainly makes one look wealthy...
Cheng Anlang: "Yours...earthworms too."
Lan Deqi: "This little white silk scarf adds a touch of elegance to it..."
Cheng Anlang: ...
Lan Deqi: "It's a pity that my earthworm can't wear small accessories, as they'll easily get dirty."
Cheng Dahua was quite pleased with herself and even allowed Lan Deqi to touch its leaves.
Soon it was Lan Deqi's turn. He placed the giant earthworm on the testing platform, and the tester pressed a button. With a "buzzing" sound, the red line on the detector gradually rose and finally stopped at level two.
The inspector inputs the data.
The onlookers praised the performance.
"Not bad, I heard this earthworm hasn't been in a contract for very long."
"What great progress! I heard that this earthworm is incredibly good at burrowing underground, making it harder for our mutated beasts to attack it."
Cheng Anlang also said, "Congratulations."
Lan Deqi smiled and said, "I hope to meet you in the competition."
Cheng Anlang: "Okay."
After Landeqi finished his test, it was Cheng Anlang's turn.
Onlookers placed their bets.
"What level do you think this flower could be?"
"The contract hasn't been in place for long. It'll either be level one, or level two if it's really strong."
“Do you remember when it first arrived it fought a level two crocodile and was evenly matched? So I guess it’s either level two or level three.”
"Level two or three right after entering the school? That's incredibly rare! They haven't even had a chance to absorb many crystals yet!"
Zhang Mingyu asked with great interest, "Guess what level that flower is?"
Shen Rui wanted to make a sarcastic remark, but couldn't find a point to mock: "It can't be viewed with common sense. I'd guess it's level three or four."
Yu Ya thought for a moment: "Level 4?"
Zhang Mingyu shook his head and held out his palm: "I guess level five or... it doesn't even have any levels at all."
Cheng Anlang placed Cheng Dahua on the testing table and patted her head: "Keep it up."
Cheng Dahua proudly exclaimed, "Awooooo!"
Once everything was ready, the inspector pressed the button amidst the breathless silence of the crowd.
"Buzz—"
A gentle breeze blew by.
Blow away a few specks of dust.
Cheng Anlang: "..."
Cheng Dahua: "?"
"Is the detector broken?"
"The inspector didn't press the button?"
The inspector looked at the button: "Did I just press the button?"
The detector did not respond.
"Can you guys think about this properly? It's a plant, it's perfectly normal for the detector not to react!"
"It seems...it seems so..."
"So...which group will we be placed in for the competition...?"
Cheng Anlang said awkwardly, "Teacher, look at this..."
Cheng Dahua stared blankly at the motionless red thread.
how so!
It's clearly the best!
"Awoooooo!"
Cheng Dahua suddenly looked up and let out a long howl, startling everyone.
