Chapter 260: Chapter 248 What Are We Waiting For!
Intergalactic Exchange Student?!
Qiao Sang’s expression stalled, and she stood frozen in place, as if she’d turned stupid.
Research ships, starry sky pirates, space architecture, interstellar pet beasts… A series of elements from interstellar news on TV kept surfacing in her mind.
Not to mention the entire interstellar space, but even considering the other three habitable planets humanity had colonized, Dragon Country was too small.
Dragon Country has 13 regions, and her own Yuhua Region is made up of 11 provinces, with Hangkang City being just one of the 12 prefecture-level cities in Zhehai Province.
It seems like Dragon Country is quite large.
But in fact, Dragon Country is just one among hundreds of countries on Blue Star.
Although there are now very mature methods of space tourism, their exorbitant prices also determine that space tourism is still only a pastime for billionaires.
This was also one of the reasons why Qiao Sang originally wanted to participate in the Interstellar Cup.
As long as she was selected for the Interstellar Cup, she could visit and tour other planets with all expenses paid.
Who would want to stay on one planet all the time after finally crossing over to a world with an interstellar background?
What Qiao Sang didn’t expect was that she might have the chance to go to other planets without even having left her own province yet!
To miss such an opportunity would simply be against all reason!
Liu Yao watched as the expression on Qiao Sang’s face changed, finally becoming so excited that she blushed, and he couldn’t help but smile understandingly.
Well, now that he’d said it,
even if Qiao Sang reached the required level to participate in the senior three competition and lost in the end, at most he would just have to wait for another year.
If Qiao Sang won first place in the province next year, he could still go back to his research.
With this thought, the regret in Liu Yao’s heart completely disappeared. He said with a smile, “Every year, the country has a few intergalactic exchange student spots, but they are not easy to get.”
“This year, our ranking in the Interstellar Cup wasn’t high, so the number of exchange student spots has been reduced from the original five to three.”
Qiao Sang came back to her senses and said in surprise, “The ranking in the Interstellar Cup is linked to the number of exchange student spots?”
“Do you think the resources for exchange students are so easy to get? All the resources in the interstellar space are earned by our country on its own,” Liu Yao said calmly. “The strong get stronger, and the weak get weaker; it is the law.”
“But don’t think that three spots are too few. Some countries don’t even get one spot. The vast majority of the intergalactic exchange student spots are actually selected from college students; it’s already pretty good for high school students to have three,” he said.
“What do I need to do to get one of these spots?” Qiao Sang asked.
Liu Yao smiled, “Generally speaking, intergalactic exchange students are selected from among the national second and third-year high school students based on good academic performance or beast taming talent, and you definitely belong to the latter.”
Qiao Sang: “…”
You didn’t have to say that last bit… Qiao Sang thought to herself, feeling like retorting, but considering her current status in the class, she felt she had no ground to stand on.
Liu Yao continued, “Among these students, the country generally selects from the National Campus Beast Taming League. Being a provincial champion in a year group is impressive, but it’s not enough on the national level. Just take the Yuhua Region for example, it has 11 provinces, not to mention the champions of various year groups.”
“Even if you get to the final national competition in your first-year group, with limited spots, the country will still prioritize second and third-year students,” Liu Yao said.
At this point, Liu Yao straightened his back a bit more, his gaze piercing as he looked at Qiao Sang seriously and said:
“But you are different. Your Beast Taming Codex has reached the third page. In my memory, I have never heard of a 15-year-old able to develop their brain domain to such an extent.’
Qiao Sang listened silently, pondering to herself… was she really that impressive?
“If you participate in the senior two competition, and you don’t become the national champion, you probably have no chance, but if you compete in the senior three, and with your own strength, make it into the district competition, and add to that your three-page Beast Taming Codex, you will definitely get noticed by the country. At that time, you have a very good chance of getting one of these exchange student spots,” Liu Yao said.
He was not completely without confidence in Qiao Sang’s future prospects of obtaining an intergalactic exchange student spot.
But now that there were only three spots left, he did not know how many would be allocated to students with good beast taming talent in the coming years.
If it were just about one person, it would all be focused on high school seniors; that means Qiao Sang would have to at least be in her senior year to have a chance.
A 15-year-old with three pages of the Beast Taming Codex versus a 17-year-old who has just unlocked the third page is a completely different story.
Ultimately, he couldn’t bear to see such a talented child waste so much time in the small place that is Hangkang.
Although Hangkang City is a provincial capital, it’s tragically small compared to the outside world.
Qiao Sang listened for a long time and finally understood.
She had to participate in the senior group competition and make it to regional qualifiers to stand a chance at obtaining this spot.
In other words, this spot was not a guaranteed win for her.
“Do you understand?” Liu Yao asked.
“I understand,” Qiao Sang said seriously, “Making it to the senior group regional qualifiers is still not reliable enough. I have to win the championship in the finals to ensure that this spot is definitely mine!”
Liu Yao: “???”
…
As soon as she left school, Qiao Sang headed straight for the Pet Beast Training Organization she had visited previously.
“Boss, make a month’s worth of Energy Pills according to this formula.” Qiao Sang placed the cultivation plan in front of the man.
While many bought Energy Pills, it was indeed rare for someone to custom-order them according to a specific formula.
Seeing the girl as a well-off and generous regular customer, the man decisively left his almost-winning hand of cards to warmly greet her.
The two sand shrews sitting at the side of the table exchanged a glance and secretly swapped their cards with each other.
…
By the time Qiao Sang returned home, it was already 18:43 in the evening.
In the living room.
Qiao Sang spoke earnestly to her three Pet Beasts, “There’s a change in plan. We need to work hard for the next month because we will be competing against opponents who have two more years of training than us!”
Qiao Sang was absolutely confident about her ability to participate in the high school senior level competition when the time came.
The evolution of the Treasure-seeking Ghost was already an event of the past few days.
Even if Shuilu Yana wasn’t heartbroken, according to its current level data in the Beast Taming Codex, it would naturally evolve within a month under the boost of the Golden Finger.

“Yaobao!”
Yaobao wagged its tail, eyes shining with excitement, and nodded in agreement.
It loved competitions most!
“Lulu!” Shuilu Yana glanced at Yaobao and quickly nodded as well.
“Xun…”
Xiao Xunbao seemed a bit distracted as it responded.
Competitions and such, could they compare to the Golden Glove? It still preferred the upcoming bare-handed tile-splitting contest.
Qiao Sang instantly noticed Xiao Xunbao’s state of mind and laughed, “Didn’t you used to stare up at the stars every night? If we win, we might have a chance to go to space and take a closer look.”
“Xun Xun!”
Xiao Xunbao first showed a dazed expression, then quickly floated toward the courtyard.
What was there to wait for? It was time to train!
