College Entrance Exam Results

After reading the information on Spirit Controllers, Xu Xin looked at Xu Qing and could almost be certain that his habit of appearing lost in thought was caused by his Spiritual Force constantly leaking out.

"Sister Xin, what's wrong?" Xu Qing asked when he noticed her staring at him, blinking.

Xu Xin smiled slightly. "Xiao Qing, can you see your own sea of consciousness?"

"My sea of consciousness? You mean my mind?" Xu Qing asked, taken aback.

"Yes, your mind. Can you see something inside it?" Xu Xin asked.

Xu Qing nodded. "Mm. There's a glowing sphere."

"Is that sphere solid? Is it constantly dissipating?" Xu Xin pressed.

"Mm, yes. It keeps releasing mist. Sister Xin, how did you know?" Xu Qing replied, looking at her curiously.

He had never told anyone about it.

"Of course I figured it out. You'll understand once you read this." Xu Xin patted his head, then handed him the tablet.

Xu Qing took the tablet and began to read.

Before long, he understood. He also learned what was going on with him.

"So I'm a Spirit Controller," Xu Qing said in surprise. He hadn't expected to be one of the most powerful kinds of Warriors.

"That's right. Xiao Qing, you're a Spirit Controller, rarer than an ordinary Warrior. Given your current situation, your true strength is two levels higher—Intermediate War General," Xu Xin said with a sigh.

She truly hadn't expected Xu Qing to be one of the rarest Warriors, a Spirit Controller. Now his strength could be firmly placed at the Intermediate War General level.

Warriors at War General Level might not seem like much, but Xu Qing was only seventeen.

A seventeen-year-old War General—an Intermediate War General, no less—was a very different matter. There was no doubt he had the potential to become a War God.

In other words, as long as nothing unexpected happened, Xu Qing would definitely become a War God-level Warrior in the future.

Across the whole planet, there were plenty of War God-level Warriors, but there were also very few. One thing was certain: they were all incredibly powerful.

Take the Xu Family, for example. They spent over ten billion every year to cultivate relationships with a few War Gods, and they were the ones who went out of their way to curry favor, always keeping their heads down.

That showed how highly valued War God-level Warriors were on Earth.

War General and War God differed by just one word, but the gap between them was immense.

"Intermediate War General? Does that mean I count as a powerful Warrior now?" Xu Qing asked curiously.

"Mm. Intermediate War Generals are already powerful, and you're only seventeen, Xiao Qing. You'll only grow stronger," Xu Xin said with a nod.

According to the information, Xu Qing's strength was still rising rapidly because the Spiritual Force in his sea of consciousness hadn't all been released yet.

"Sister Xin, does that mean I can become a Warrior and go kill monsters?" Now that Xu Qing understood his strength, he was curious about the outside world.

Xu Xin shook her head. "No. You're still young, Xiao Qing, and you don't understand how cruel people can be. It's too dangerous to go out and kill monsters. I wouldn't feel at ease."

"You can become a Warrior first. We'll talk about killing monsters later. Besides, the college entrance exams are coming up soon. Don't you want to go to university with me?"

"I do! Then I won't go kill monsters." Xu Qing quickly changed his mind.

Xu Xin smiled in satisfaction. "Good. Xiao Qing, let's keep your strength a secret between us for now. Don't tell anyone else, understand?"

She didn't want Xu Qing to be taken advantage of. In her eyes, he was too innocent.

"Oh, I understand," Xu Qing said obediently, nodding.

And so Xu Qing continued going to school with Xu Xin, preparing for the upcoming college entrance exams.

A month passed in the blink of an eye.

The college entrance exams lasted three days, and the results would be released just a week later. It was quick.

For Xu Qing, the exams were no different from his usual tests. He didn't feel the slightest pressure.

After the three days of exams, Xu Qing and Xu Xin waited at home for the results.

On the day the results became available, Xu Xin checked both her and Xu Qing's scores at home. She had scored 588, while Xu Qing had scored exactly 600.

"Xiao Qing, don't you usually score 700? How come you only got 600 this time?" Xu Xin asked.

Xu Qing thought about it. "That way I can go to the same university as you, Sister Xin."

Hearing his answer, Xu Xin didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Why would he think that? Even if he scored 700, he could still attend the same university as her.

"You silly boy, that's not how it works. Forget it. Six hundred is fine. We just need to apply to the same university." Xu Xin pinched his cheek. How could her little brother be so adorably silly?

Once the college entrance exam results were released, Xu Xin told the family elders.

Xu Xin's grandfather was the Xu Family's Family Head. Her parents were senior figures in the Xu Family's businesses, and her Elder Brother also helped manage the family's enterprises.

When they heard about Xu Xin's exam results, the whole family came home to celebrate.

"Xin Xin scored 588. That's above the cutoff for a first-tier university. Xin Xin, where do you want to go to university?" Xu Xin's mother asked with a smile over dinner.

"Jiangnan University. Xiao Qing will go too," Xu Xin replied.

At her answer, Xu Xin's mother glanced at Xu Qing, who was sitting there eating attentively, and smiled. "That works. If Xiao Qing goes to the same university as you, Xin Xin, you'll have someone to keep you company."

"Xiao Qing, you scored 600 this time. Is there anything you want? Just ask. If your uncle can make it happen, I'll do it," Xu Xin's father said with a smile.

The Xu Family also treated Xu Qing warmly because they cared for Xu Xin. Besides, Xu Qing was likable, and his grades were excellent, so the whole family was good to him.

Since Xu Qing was a collateral member of the Xu Family and his parents were gone, it made sense to raise him as a direct family member. He could become Xu Xin's right-hand man in the future.

Xu Qing looked up from his food at Xu Xin's father. "Thank you, Uncle Xu. It's all right. There's nothing I want."

"Haha, is that so? All right, then. If you ever want anything, just ask me," Xu Xin's father said with a smile.

"Xiao Qing, you can ask me too," Xu Xin's Elder Brother, Xu Gang, added.

Xu Gang was several years older than Xu Xin and now managed the Xu Family's businesses. He usually dealt with people from the major families.

Since Xu Qing had grown up alongside Xu Xin, Xu Gang treated him like a younger brother.

"Mm, thank you, Elder Brother," Xu Qing said with a nod.

"Once Xiao Qing graduates from university, arrange for him to work alongside Xin Xin," the Xu Family's old master, seated at the head of the table, finally said.

With the old master's words, Xu Qing's status as a direct member of the Xu Family was officially recognized.

"I understand, Dad," Xu Xin's father replied with a smile.
