Future Beast World: Pampered by beautiful women, many children and good fortune

Chapter 32: Turns Out She Was Just a Figurehead

“There's an entrance exam in three days. Are you going to take it?” Caesar asked, a look of contentment on his face, as he played with her smooth, long hair.

Sang Luo nestled in his arms, greedily inhaling the scent of pine and snow from his body. It smelled so good that she couldn't help but bury her head in his chest, muffledly saying, “Is it difficult to pass?”

“Not too difficult. It mainly tests talent and combat ability, along with a written exam. If you find it troublesome and don’t want to go, I can also get you in through a recommendation.”

Going through the back door, huh? Sang Luo chuckled softly. “I’ll still give it a try!” She had confidence in herself.

The entrance test for Allans Military Academy hadn't changed much from previous years, mainly consisting of three tests.

The first test: talent assessment.

The second test: written exam.

The third test was the main event, testing the students' combat talent.

The first round of talent testing was slightly stricter than in previous years. Male beastmen were required to be under eighteen years old with a talent level of five or higher, selecting the most promising young beastmen in the entire empire.

The conditions for females were much more lenient.

—Young females of childbearing age, with a strength level of three or higher, could pass the test.

This was enough to show the difference in the academy's purpose for recruiting females and males.

Of course, not many females who entered the academy truly wished to join the military. They were all there to select excellent beast husbands—male beasts who could pass the Allans Academy's selection were definitely the elite of the empire!

The academy was well aware of this, but they couldn't be too obvious about it, so they set conditions. Females also needed to complete the test according to the rules.

Females who were too useless and had no talent would not be able to produce offspring with high talent with excellent males. Recruiting them would also be a waste of resources.

Sang Luo wasn't worried about the first round. What she worried about was the second round's written test. She knew nothing about the military academy's theoretical knowledge.

Three days, ah! Trying to cram at the last minute would only result in being kicked by Buddha!

Caesar took a few test papers from the study and gave them to her. “These are past Allans Military Academy test questions. I’ve organized them. You can do them first to practice. You can ask me if you don’t understand anything.”

Sang Luo grabbed the test papers and quickly buried herself in solving the problems.

Caesar poured her a glass of fruit milk. “Would you like something to drink?”

“I’m not thirsty.”

“Then would you like to eat something first?”

“I’m not hungry.”

“Take a break and study later. Don’t exhaust yourself.”

Sang Luo didn't even lift her head. “Not enough! Give me twenty more!”

“……” Was it that difficult?

Treating a dead horse as if it were still alive.

Sang Luo didn't understand the theoretical knowledge of these questions at all. She just memorized the answers…

Three days later.

Allans Military Academy.

Sang Luo didn't want to cause the commotion from the registration day again, stirring up a few troublesome love rivals. She specially changed into simple, low-key clothes and parted ways with Caesar when she arrived at the academy.

She arrived relatively early. There weren't many people in front of the line yet. After the staff checked her information, Sang Luo was led to the academy hall.

Some people were organizing their equipment, and some were temporarily memorizing the test questions.

There were almost several thousand people, and that didn't include those who hadn't finished registering yet.

There were only about a hundred females, all dressed gorgeously and with excellent appearances, mostly noble females from aristocratic families.

Each female was surrounded by several beastmen, attending to their every need, looking like their companions.

In the third round's combat elimination round, most females, in terms of strength, had no chance of being selected, so they brought their peers to assist them.

The school's higher-ups turned a blind eye to this. Being able to drive powerful males to fight loyally for oneself was itself one of the female's abilities. Over time, the two sides also formed a tacit tradition.

Sang Luo looked at her empty side and sighed. People still had to rely on themselves.

Before long, the commotion of the crowd quieted down a lot. A carriage pulled by three giant beasts swaggered into the academy.

These giant beasts were tamed high-level star beasts, the Giant Dragon Lizards.

This display was so impressive! Many beastmen's eyes were full of envy!

A handsome and tall white tiger beastman accompanied her on the left and right. He lifted the veil and helped the person in the carriage down.

Sophie Asarte wore a European-style emerald green grand skirt, with golden wavy hair and pink eyes, like a delicately dressed doll, welcomed to the front of the line, surrounded by people.

Sang Luo raised her eyebrows and asked the Pallas's cat beastman who was watching the excitement next to her, “What's the background of this Princess Sophie Asarte? What a grand display. She doesn't seem to be from the Allans royal family.”

The male beastman quickly withdrew his gaze. The little female in front of him was even more stunning, and the scent on her body was especially sweet and charming. He smiled and patiently explained, “Sophie Asarte's surname is Asarte, of course she's not from the royal family!”

“The Beast King only has Doto Allans as a prince, and no female cubs. Sophie Asarte was a nominal princess suddenly conferred by the Beast King a few years ago from a declining distant relative of the royal family.”

“Being able to connect with the royal family is naturally a great joy for the declining Asarte family. They used this female cub, which they had worked so hard to obtain, to rise to the heavens! However, now that Sophie Asarte is nominally the Beast King's daughter, the Beast King has not granted her the Allans surname, so her situation is somewhat awkward…”

No wonder Doto called Sophie his cousin.

Sang Luo smiled. The old Beast King had no females for marriage, so he randomly found a female to fill the numbers.

A fake princess could be used to control Caesar, and with the power of a declining noble family, it would be difficult to stir up trouble… This old Beast King certainly had good plans.

When the people had arrived, they entered the testing grounds in batches.

On the stage.

Caesar sat to the right of the principal.

The noisy crowd below suddenly became as quiet as cicadas in winter. The deans and teachers present were also extremely nervous. Caesar was not only an Imperial General, but he had also studied at the Allans Empire Academy in his youth, breaking all the academy's record in four years, which no one has surpassed to this day.

No one at Allans Military Academy didn't feel awe for this legend.

But this general was usually busy with military affairs and rarely showed his face in public. How could he have time to watch the new student selection competition?

He hadn't informed the academy to prepare in advance, which messed up the principal's mentality.

Raltu was restless and under great pressure, constantly drinking water.

Could it be that their academy had produced a few good seedlings this year?

Seeing that Caesar's gaze was always on the stage, but there were too many students, so it was impossible to determine who this adult was looking at, the deans and teachers all had their own guesses. Until they saw Sophie enter, someone remembered that General Caesar had an engagement with this princess bestowed by the Beast King in his early years.

Now that the princess had come of age, they would be getting married soon.

The general must have come to see his sweetheart!

Sophie Asarte looked at the handsome and unparalleled man on the stage, overjoyed, lowered her head shyly, and followed a beast husband into the first batch of testing rooms.

When her name was called, Sang Luo glanced at the stage and met his smiling gaze. Her face flushed, and she quickly looked away, pretending not to know him. She followed a beastman leading the way into the classroom for testing female talents.

“General, how are the students in this batch? Are there any good seedlings worth looking at?” Laltu rubbed his palms together and asked with a smile.

“The aptitude is acceptable. There are a few seventh-tier beastmen, but the specifics depend on their subsequent performance. Aptitude doesn't represent everything.” Caesar withdrew his gaze, his tone without much fluctuation.

The principal poured a cup of tea. “Sir, please try this cup of fine Dragon Drink Tea. It's a treasure from the Eastern Continent.”

“I'm honored.”

Caesar smiled and took the tea, but he didn't drink it. His slender, jade-like fingers gently caressed the rim of the cup, and he slowly said,

“Principal Laltu, regarding the proposal you made to me last time, I've been considering it for the past few days…”

When Sang Luo arrived at the pavilion, most of the previous batch of females had already finished their tests. Nearly half of them hadn't reached the passing line. Many females had never even used their talent power, unable to even perform the most basic mobilization of talent power.

She didn't see Sophie Asarte. Perhaps she had finished the test and left.

“Please place your hand on this stone, close your eyes, and mobilize the talent power within your body…” Soon it was Sang Luo's turn, and a refined and handsome male beastman came over to remind her.

Sang Luo stood on the stone platform and placed her hand on the two-meter-high stone. She easily mobilized the talent power within her body.

The teachers who came to test were all very surprised. It was the first time they had seen a female who could use her talent power so skillfully.

The moment Sang Luo placed her hand on it, the talent stone instantly lit up, the white light even stronger than everyone else's!

The talent strength clearly exceeded the third tier, even reaching the fourth tier! Fifth tier!

“Lightning talent!” Another testing teacher stood up in surprise.

After the light of the talent stone dissipated, a bolt of lightning suddenly struck down. Fortunately, Sang Luo only used a small portion of her talent power, otherwise, the talent stone might have been destroyed on the spot.

“This… may I ask which noble family you come from?” The testing teacher was extremely respectful.

Lightning talent was very rare, and the attack power of golden lightning talent could rank among the top three, and might even advance to S-grade purple-gold lightning. This kind of talent definitely belonged to beastmen from large aristocratic families. Could she be from the Purple Cloud Leopard clan? But I've never heard of the Purple Cloud Leopard clan giving birth to a female in recent decades…

Sang Luo, “I'm not a female from a noble family. I just came from a small place.”

One of the teachers even specifically looked up the file information filled in at the time of enrollment.

The identity that Caesar registered for Sang Luo was indeed just an ordinary female, with an ordinary background.

“Hello, I'm Glenn Tuya, in charge of the combat department students. I dare say that with your talent, entering the academy is a certainty. The future prosperity of your entire family depends on you…” Glenn Tuya smiled meaningfully.

Lightning talent females were extremely rare throughout the entire empire. Her talent far exceeded the third tier. Once the news was released, who knows how many aristocratic children would pursue her!

Low-level beastmen valued the fertility of females, while beastmen with higher talents, especially those above the king level, valued the talent ability of females even more.

Because they couldn't have offspring at this level, it was basically not about the fertility of the female, but purely because the talent ability of the female was too weak to match them. Even if they found a female with strong fertility, it would be difficult to give birth to offspring. Even if they were lucky enough to give birth to offspring, they would be low-talent mixed-race offspring, making it difficult to continue the family's honor.

“The examination hall for the second written test is in the West Building. I'll take you over there. Please be careful of the stone steps.” Glenn Tuya was afraid that Sang Luo would bump into something.

Someone specifically went to find the principal to inform him of this matter.

“A female with lightning talent appeared? What is her level!” Laltu also stood up instantly.

He had been teaching at the Arans Military Academy for more than a hundred years, and it was the first time he had seen a female with lightning talent!

“The talent stone prepared by the academy for females can only test the third tier, but according to our past experience, her talent is stronger than the fourth tier, and it is very likely that she has reached the fifth tier!”

A fifth-tier lightning female, it may not even appear once every few hundred years. Arans Military Academy has picked up a big leak this time.

Laltu was so excited that he almost fainted, and hurriedly said, “Who is that female?”

Looking at the information, Laltu was dumbfounded again, and quickly went to look at the handsome man next to his right hand.

“This…”

Isn't this the little female that the General brought over a few days ago?

No wonder he came here in person this time. He was probably not here for Sophie Asarte, but for this noble female.

A fifth-tier lightning talent female is more in line with the mate selection criteria of a king beast than that princess without talent!

In the classroom for the second written test.

Sang Luo looked at the test questions on the test paper, which were so familiar that she couldn't be more familiar with them. They were almost exactly the same as the few papers that Caesar gave her!

How much did he not trust her, that he even cheated out the test questions!

Sang Luo could easily get above ninety points no matter what she did. She left the examination hall first, and everyone else was extremely envious.

The first two talent tests and written tests had already eliminated more than half of the beastmen.

However, the elimination round of the third level was the highlight of the entire freshman competition.

It would screen out more than half of the remaining two thousand beastmen.

In the end, only eight hundred people could get admission spots.

Everyone was teleported to a forest.

This place was a hunting ground set up by Arans Academy, raising many star beasts, from low-level to high-level. Their task was to hunt star beasts.

There was a chance that the academy's tokens would appear on the star beasts. The stronger the star beasts, the higher the probability of having tokens. The number of tokens was used to rank the freshmen's scores, which were updated in real-time on the optical brain. The test time was half a month, and the top eight hundred were admitted.

Several light screens appeared on the stage, broadcasting the situation in the hunting ground simultaneously.

Seventh-tier star beasts may appear in the hunting ground. To ensure the safety of the freshmen, senior students would lead the team.

Sang Luo released her mental power, and everything within a radius of tens of meters was unobstructed, including everyone's actions. Suddenly, her footsteps stopped.

The senior leading the team gave her a gloomy look from behind and mocked her in a very light voice, “A female from a remote place, without even a decent male by her side, hehe, a low-quality rat female that no one wants. You may have the life to enter, but you may not have the life to get out…”

After saying that, he turned and left.

Sang Luo heard the curse, frowned, this person had a lot of malice towards her, how did he know that she was a rat female?

Sang Luo expanded her mental power a little more and saw him walking quickly towards a figure,
