Above the Dominator

The 15th-level Summoner. Although this profession doesn't have high personal strength, it can summon two 15th-level strange beasts as helpers in battles, and its combat power should not be underestimated!

However, Ye Xiang was a bit hesitant. He originally planned to take the college entrance examination alone.

Just as he was about to refuse, Shen Youwei also came up to him. "Brother Ye, I want to team up with you too. You promised me!"

When the surrounding classmates saw Shen Youwei, they almost went crazy!

Shen Youwei, the 16th-level hidden profession, the Moon Spirit Priestess!

With this lineup, it seems that they could even graduate normally with a fool in the team. Thinking of this, the people around looked at Ye Xiang with even more disdain.

Before Ye Xiang could react, Shen Youwei sent a team invitation via the score device.

"Shen Youwei, a 16th-level Moon Spirit Priestess, requests to join your team. Do you agree?"

Shen Youwei's purpose was very simple. She just wanted to help Ye Xiang graduate normally.

"Brother Ye, if you don't agree, I won't take the college entrance examination. I'll repeat the year with you next year," Shen Youwei showed a rare stubborn side and looked at Ye Xiang seriously.

Her mother had told her to take care of Ye Xiang. She couldn't forget the kindness of Ye Xiang's parents in the past.

Ye Xiang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Unable to persuade her, he had to click "agree".

If it were before, he might not have agreed. But now, as a 14th-level Celestial Master, also a hidden profession, he was confident that he wouldn't hold Shen Youwei back.

In the distance, Qing Yulu frowned as she watched this scene.

This guy Ye Xiang had finally teamed up with Shen Youwei. She let out a helpless sigh, feeling very disappointed in him!

When Ye Xiang agreed, Song Xinrui quickly applied to join the team as well.

"Song Xinrui, a 15th-level Summoner, requests to join your team. Do you agree?"

Ye Xiang looked at Song Xinrui in confusion. "To be honest, as a rare Summoner, you should be very popular among other teams. Why do you insist on choosing me?"

Song Xinrui gritted her teeth and finally told the truth. "If I join another team, I can indeed get into a good university. But I... I also want to get into a top university. I watched your duel against the Corrupted Snake, and I believe I won't hold you back either."

Ye Xiang suddenly reacted. "You saw it?"

After a moment of hesitation, Song Xinrui nodded. "Yes... Don't worry, I haven't told anyone about your strength."

Shen Youwei beside them was a bit puzzled. What had happened in the arena?

Ye Xiang rubbed his temples, but his mind was quickly thinking. After all, having one more person in the team meant one more person to share the scores.

This was also the reason why so many people didn't consider Ye Xiang at all. What could a useless Taoist profession do?

Make pills with a fire?

But soon, a flash of light appeared in Ye Xiang's eyes, and he agreed to Song Xinrui's team application.

In his mind, some tactical combinations that could effectively gain points gradually emerged, but they needed cannon fodder, and the strange beasts summoned by the Summoner could perfectly serve as such a role.

When Song Xinrui saw that Ye Xiang had agreed to the teaming up, she was overjoyed.

"Thank you! I will definitely follow your commands!"

The more Shen Youwei watched, the more confused she became. At first, she thought Song Xinrui was coming for her, but now it seemed that she was really after Ye Xiang.

Just then, the outer city gate slowly opened.

A clear broadcast sounded, "The college entrance examination officially begins. All students enter the outer city. If you encounter danger, you can press the red button on the score device, and support will arrive within one minute. But it also means that the college entrance examination ends early."

"Cherish your lives, and we wish all students a bright future!"

Boom!

All the students couldn't hold back anymore. They picked up their backpacks and rushed towards the outer city, including Ye Xiang and the other two.

As soon as the three of them left the city, the female head teacher of Class 2 came up to Qing Yulu aggressively and said angrily, "Are you going to manage Ye Xiang in your class? Why did he team up with Song Xinrui from our class?"

Faced with the female teacher's questioning, Qing Yulu was also taken aback for a moment.

"I'm telling you, Song Xinrui is also a top student. If her future is ruined because of Ye Xiang in your class, I will definitely make him drop out of school!"

Only then did Qing Yulu realize that Ye Xiang had not only teamed up with Shen Youwei but also with Song Xinrui, the top student in Class 2?

Does this guy really have such good luck with women?

"Why are you yelling at me? Can I control this?" Qing Yulu said angrily. She had clearly told Ye Xiang not to team up with Shen Youwei. Did this guy listen to her?

Just then, the old principal walked over with a dark face.

"Alright. Teachers from other schools are here. Don't you think we haven't made enough jokes for the First High School?"

"How many students do you think can pass the first-tier standard this time?" The old principal turned around and asked the person behind him.

Behind the old principal was an intellectual woman wearing glasses.

She opened the information on the tablet in her hand, checked the ranking information of the school students, and then said, "According to the last mock assessment, there are 256 students."

The old principal nodded in satisfaction. The enrollment rate of students reaching the first-tier standard in Ningchuan No.1 High School was always the highest.

"Analyze it. How many of them are likely to get into those three top universities?" The old principal continued to ask.

The intellectual woman began to analyze all the data of these people, and a faint light shone in her eyes.

"If nothing unexpected happens, there should be three people... Wait a minute..."

She was a 35th-level support profession, a Data Statistician. She could figure out many things through various data. Those with a higher level could even achieve perfect prediction, but her own combat power was not high.

At this moment, she seemed to see a very special piece of data information and looked extremely surprised.

She reached out and tapped on the tablet, and a virtual light screen appeared in front of them.

It was the arena ranking list of the First Middle School in the Virtual Mirror Realm. Somehow, the name at the top of the list had been replaced by a name that was both very unfamiliar and somewhat familiar.

First place: Student ID number 2305: Ye Xiang, Level: 12, Kill Record: 16th-level two-headed Corrupted Snake.

Upon seeing this piece of news, several teachers were immediately stunned on the spot.

Especially Qing Yulu, who for a moment thought she was having a hallucination!

"How is this possible?!!!"

The old principal was also taken aback for a moment and was a bit surprised by the record on the ranking list. "Ms. Xu, is there something wrong with the Virtual Mirror Realm?"

Ms. Xu frowned and shook her head. "The backstage of the Virtual Mirror Realm is maintained by thousands of Programmers above level 50. There is no way there could be a bug."

"There is a battle record, but you need the principal's permission to view this student's battle record."

The old principal understood. He took out a school badge ring from his pocket and scanned the screen with it.

Soon, all of Ye Xiang's battle records in the arena over the past three years appeared in front of them.

Ms. Xu directly skipped to the last battle record and opened it.

Sure enough, the screen showed Ye Xiang's battle with the 16th-level two-headed Corrupted Snake. When they saw him fighting the Corrupted Snake fearlessly with a golden light around him, all the teachers were left stunned.

It took them a long time to recover even after the video ended.

Finally, the old principal burst out laughing, laughing so hard that he coughed violently.

"Good! What a good lad! He's been hiding his abilities for so long!"

Qing Yulu had a complicated expression. Ye Xiang had defeated a 16th-level two-headed Corrupted Snake while being at level 12. He said he was at level 14 the day before yesterday. Could it be that his strength had increased again?

The female head teacher of Class 2 opened her mouth, and then a glimmer of hope suddenly flashed in her eyes.

"With Ye Xiang cooperating with Shen Youwei, and with Xinrui as a Summoner, the three of them might be able to get into those three top universities at the same time, right?"

After analyzing for a moment, Ms. Xu nodded. "Based on Ye Xiang's performance in the video, if the three of them cooperate well and their luck isn't too bad, they can do it."

"He has this kind of strength. Why has he never shown it before?" The female head teacher didn't understand and turned to look at Qing Yulu.

Qing Yulu felt a bit embarrassed. Since the second year of senior high school, she really hadn't paid attention to Ye Xiang anymore.

The old principal smiled. He turned to look in the direction of the outer city gate. "Is it hiding his abilities or being patient? But this kind of calm and unassuming temperament is still commendable. It seems that a dragon is about to emerge from our small Ningchuan."

However, Ye Xiang, who was valued, stopped as soon as he left the city gate.

"What's wrong, Brother Ye?" Shen Youwei was a bit puzzled.

Ye Xiang let out a sigh and said somewhat sheepishly, "I was in such a hurry to get here that I forgot to bring any food."

Shen Youwei was taken aback for a moment. "I have some in my backpack, but not much..."

"I have quite a few compressed biscuits and water in my backpack, which can last for three days," Song Xinrui said.

"Then that's okay."

This was the first actual combat experience for all three of them, and also the first time they had left the outer city. They needed to minimize mistakes as much as possible.

"I also have a map of the area near the outer city. Do you need it?" Song Xinrui asked.

She took out a map from her backpack and handed it over.

Ye Xiang looked at the girl in surprise. He didn't expect her to be so well-prepared.

He opened the map and found that it also marked the locations of many groups of strange beasts, along with some approximate information.

"Isn't this considered cheating?" Shen Youwei couldn't help but ask as she looked at the map.

Song Xinrui shook her head. "Of course not. This is also tacitly approved by the college entrance examination. Having a map allows students to consider their own strength and set goals accordingly. But it can only be used as a reference, and not all the information on it is accurate."

Ye Xiang looked at the map seriously. It seemed that after studying the Taoist scriptures for three years, he had indeed become a bit silly.

In the past few days, he had been rushing to upgrade the Immortal Pattern Imprint and hadn't paid attention to these details of the college entrance examination at all.

"Thanks. It seems that it was a wise choice to let you join," Ye Xiang said.
