Reincarnated as a Mosquito, I Sucked the Reborn Empress to Tears

Chapter 42: Chapter 42: The Transfer Application Will Not Be Canceled, Your School Is Unworthy

Just then, on the high platform, the principal announced listlessly, “This strength assessment is now over!”

After a pause, he added:

“In three days, the final mock combat exam before the joint entrance exams will be held! All third-year students will enter the Black Stone Secret Realm for a combat assessment! The results of this assessment will account for twenty percent of your final college entrance exam score! I hope all of you will do your best!”

’Black Stone Secret Realm?’

Gu Yuexi’s head snapped up when she heard the name, her cool eyes narrowing slightly.

She remembered clearly that in her previous life, it was in this very Low Level Secret Realm that an inconspicuous student had accidentally obtained a Spiritual Crystal—a Heavenly and Earthly Treasure capable of raising the upper limit of one’s Mental Power!

This item was of immense use to her, who wanted to restart her path as a Beast Tamer!

Seeing her expression, Lin Zhennan thought she was worried about the dangers of the combat assessment.

He said with a smile, “Gu, given your current situation, you don’t have to participate in this assessment at all!”

“And forget about Du Nan First Middle School. I’ll personally write you a letter of recommendation, guaranteeing you direct admission to any first-rate Lingwu University in the country!”

His words sent another uncontrollable wave of envy, jealousy, and hate through the crowd.

Direct admission to a first-rate Lingwu University!

That was a dream that countless people might never achieve even after a dozen years of hard work!

However, faced with an offer tempting enough to drive any third-year student mad, Gu Yuexi simply shook her head and said calmly, “No, I will participate.”

Standing not far away, Zhao Qingtian was first taken aback by her words, but his eyes instantly lit up with a blazing fighting spirit!

’Good! This is perfect!’

’Today was supposed to be my day in the spotlight, but a mosquito stole all my thunder. I had to just stand by and watch a Flower Vase Beauty, someone far inferior to me, ascend to the heavens because of that mosquito!’

’The jealousy and sense of injustice in my heart are about to boil over.’

’And here I was, worried I wouldn’t get a chance to get even!’

’So what if its Spiritual Wisdom is high? In a real battle, Bloodline and strength are what truly matter!’

’In three days, I’ll show you the insurmountable gap between my High-Level Bloodline Cyan Armored Wolf and your trash mosquito!’

Li Yueyao, on the other hand, was completely bewildered. She couldn’t understand why Gu Yuexi would give up a guaranteed direct admission to participate in a combat assessment that came with a certain degree of danger.

Lin Zhennan was also a bit surprised, but his expression soon turned to one of approval.

’Not bad. She has a privilege but scorns to use it.’

’Neither arrogant nor impatient. Her disposition is excellent!’

’What a pity…’

He couldn’t help but sigh again in his heart.

’With such a resilient temperament, if she had contracted a normal Demon Beast with a High-Level Bloodline, even I might not have been able to fathom her future achievements.’

’But now… her life is destined to be bound to this mosquito with its heaven-defying Spiritual Wisdom.’

’Her future path seems bright.’

’But in reality, she’s merely gone from being a disposable pawn at the mercy of others to a precious lab rat—one who will live without worry, but who has lost all freedom and potential.’

With that, the test before the joint entrance exams was completely over.

As the City Lord, Lin Zhennan was busy with his duties and left soon after.

He only left behind a few Sixth-Grade guards at the school to protect Gu Yuexi at all times.

Gu Yuexi ignored the varied stares from the people around her and was about to take Chu Sheng back to the tent on the field to continue improving her strength in preparation for the combat assessment in three days.

“Gu, please wait!”

Just then, the principal and the dean of discipline came jogging over.

Their faces were plastered with smiles that were completely different from yesterday’s—smiles that could even be described as sycophantic.

“Oh, Gu, this has all been such a misunderstanding!”

The principal wrung his hands, his face full of regret. “Yesterday… Yesterday we were foolish! We didn’t investigate the situation properly and wronged you! On behalf of the school, I solemnly apologize!”

The dean of discipline quickly chimed in, “Yes, yes! Gu, please don’t take it to heart! We were deceived by those people from the Jingzhe Guild yesterday!”

The two of them were regretting it so much they could have kicked themselves.

A student with a Top-Grade Five Stars Spiritual Wisdom Contracted Beast was certainly a world-shaking discovery, but the mosquito’s Bloodline was Inferior, so its future achievements were ultimately limited.

What truly sent a chill down their spines was… the Ten Thousand Beasts Melting Furnace Technique!

This Gu Yuexi wasn’t some naive, sweet girl who got lucky.

She was a terrifying individual with a meticulous mind and a ruthless temperament, someone who wouldn’t hesitate to cultivate a Forbidden Evil Technique in exchange for power!

’This kind of person now has official protection and will surely receive some Cultivation Resources. What if… What if she really succeeds in cultivating that Evil Technique in the future…’

’Will she come back for revenge?’

The mere thought of this possibility made cold sweat break out on their backs.

’No! We have to find a way to mend this relationship!’

“Gu, it’s not right for you to keep living in a tent. What a bad impression it gives!”

The principal immediately said, “I’ll arrange for you to have the best special-grade single dormitory in our school right away! It’s fully equipped with a Cultivation Chamber and a nutrition pod! The school’s A-level training grounds will also be open to you at any time from now on!”

“Also, as for the school’s resource repository, aside from the S-Level strategic materials, you can take anything else you want!”

These were conditions that not even the school’s special-grade teachers could enjoy, let alone the students.

However, faced with this sudden display of goodwill, Gu Yuexi only gave them a faint glance, her cool eyes devoid of any ripple of emotion.

She knew, of course, what these two old foxes were afraid of.

“There’s no need.”

She spoke calmly. Her voice wasn’t loud, but it was like a basin of ice water poured over the hearts of the principal and the dean.

“I will not withdraw my transfer application to Du Nan First Middle School.”

Gu Yuexi’s tone was devoid of emotion, simply stating a fact. “I don’t want to apply to Lingwu University as a student of Jiang City Lingwu High School.”

“You are not worthy.”

The faces of the principal and the dean of discipline froze instantly.

Her words were like a merciless slap, striking them hard across the face.

’It’s over…’

’We’ve completely and utterly burned this bridge.’

Perched on Gu Yuexi’s shoulder, Chu Sheng almost laughed out loud on the spot.

’Serves you right! Selling us out so decisively yesterday! Regret it now? Too late!’

’As expected of the Empress, she has backbone!’

…

「A few hours later. Jingzhe Guild Headquarters.」

In a luxuriously decorated office, Leng Yan stared at the detailed report her subordinate had just sent back, her cold, beautiful face filled with disbelief.

Although the City Lord had ordered a blackout on the news, there had been too many people on the martial arts field. It was impossible to completely contain the information in such a short time.

As one of the local powers, the Jingzhe Guild naturally had exceptionally good sources. There was no way such a major event in their territory could escape their notice.

“Top-Grade… Five Stars Spiritual Wisdom?”

she muttered to herself, her knuckles turning white from how tightly she was gripping the report.

“The City Lord’s Mansion is personally involved? Highest level of protection?”

BANG!

She slammed her fist on the table, and a clear fist-shaped dent instantly appeared on the hard alloy surface.

An uncontrollable rage exploded from the depths of her heart!

She wouldn’t accept it!

Why?!

’My entire Shadow Fang Squad and I fought for our lives in the Black Forest! We suffered heavy casualties, and even my most beloved Contracted Beast nearly died in there! All for a world-shaking opportunity!’

’But in the end, it was snatched away by some no-name student and a freak mosquito that came out of nowhere, using such despicable methods!’

’And now, not only are they completely unharmed, but because of that mosquito, they’ve transformed into honored guests of the City Lord’s Mansion?’

’And I can only watch as they ascend to the heavens, without even a chance for revenge?’

’What is this?!’

“No… It’s not over…”

Leng Yan’s head snapped up, her eyes flashing with a cold, crazed killing intent.

Her gaze locked tightly onto the last line of the report.

“In three days… Black Stone Secret Realm… combat assessment…”

’The City Lord’s Mansion’s protection is indeed an inescapable net within Jiang City.’

’But once she enters the Secret Realm…’

’The environment in there is complex, and Demon Beasts run rampant. It’s perfectly normal for students to die “accidentally” during the assessment every year, isn’t it?’

’This is the only chance!’

’And the last one!’
