at I hunted myself, fish that I caught from the river with a net – just two, we didn’t dare catch any more!”Ripple explained with a smile, she didn't want to give the villagers the impression that the...Ripple understood Officer Emil's actions. After all, with a mole in the police department and the League of Shadows still at large, she had become a potential lead, regardless of whether it would ultimately be fruitful, he had to try.

"Officer Lance also knew your identity, but he wasn't aware beforehand that Officer Emil would conceal your true one."

Little Six immediately said.

"I understand, these aren't problems, at least not for now. These two people seem trustworthy, especially Officer Lance who always seems to cause me trouble. He's tough on the outside but soft inside."

Ripple said unconcernedly.

"It seems you already guessed they would do this"

After data analysis, Xiao Liu reached this conclusion.

It's human nature. After all, for the past thirty years, I had no dealings with the Rebel Alliance whatsoever. I was a blank slate. Moreover, I took pride in my parents who died heroically on the battlefield and as a war widow, I received privileges.

"Where was the Rebel Alliance then How could the Alliance let them take all the credit They wouldn't, and do you really think that with Emir's level, he could so easily change my genetic data"

Ripple smiled and asked.

"Just a moment, I'm performing an analysis."

Xiaoliu thought what Lianyi said made sense and immediately began to analyze it, then told Lianyi:

"Your guess has a 70% accuracy rate. I'm unable to access the police department's network at the moment and can't gather more data to support your judgment."

"The issue of identity has already been made clear and will not affect my admission assessment."

Here, she completely let go of these thoughts and participated in the first academy's entrance exam on time.

The First Academy could stand alone as a district, demonstrating just how vast its area was. Ripple, following Sixth Grade's guidance, arrived at the exam hall on time to participate in the first round, a basic knowledge test. Each student had a personal light screen and began their examination individually.

Even if you look in six directions, it doesn't matter because everyone's exam questions are different. They are randomly selected from a pool of questions. The scope and difficulty level of the assessed knowledge are the same; only the questions themselves differ.

As she worked through the questions, ripples of thought ran through her mind. Xiao Liu still had some skill, after all. She'd encountered eighty percent of these question types before. If she hadn't infiltrated the academy's system, how else could she possibly know them

Not until the light screen automatically locked, indicating the end of the exam, did people in the examination hall begin to leave in small groups. They were still whispering and inquiring about each other's progress on the exam.

The exam results were released the next day. Those who scored in the top 10,000 for the basic knowledge test all successfully advanced to the second round of practical assessments.

Xiao Liu was the first to receive a notification from the academy that Lian Yi had passed her assessment, and he also told Lian Yi her specific ranking:

"You ranked 68th in this writing exam, which puts you within the top 100."

"It's worth all the practice problems I did."

Ripple was also delighted and immediately asked:

"Xiao Liu, are you sure you didn't invade the academy's question bank"

"How is that possible You haven't even stepped through the gates of First Academy. Even if I wanted to intrude, I would need a medium! I don't have the ability to hack into the academy's database out of thin air."

"That's fine, though 80% of the questions you gave me were on the exam."

"Well, you should know who asked for these questions. These types of questions were carefully selected by me and presented to you."

Lively extended his hotel stay for two days, after all, the second assessment was in two days.

On the day of the second assessment, Lian Yi arrived at the assembly point and looked at the companions around her, each dressed in a variety of styles. She couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "Wealth can be found anywhere."

"Ripple, the boy two positions to your left, did you see him"

Suddenly, Xiao Liu spoke up.

"Saw it, what's up"

The ripples sensed that the other party had a problem and immediately became alert.

He was wearing the latest model Xianjia Wu series combat uniform, which had very strong defense and could withstand attacks from energy beams.

"Is your focus a little off"

Ripples rubbed her temples.

"How could that be I'm gathering information. You're standing in an area where most students are ranked within the top 100. They're either from wealthy families or prominent clans, even some are born into prestigious Blue Star families. Based on my initial analysis, you're the only dark horse among the top 100."

Xiao Liu immediately reported his latest discovery to Lian Yi.

"I know, I'm just a poor person, so I should just keep a low profile."

But sometimes things don't always go as planned. Just then, a golden-haired girl with green eyes walked up to Ripples, clutching a white puppy in her arms, and said rather reluctantly:

"Hello, my name is Coco Bond. My Star Beast Lilyan wants to get to know your Star Beast."

With a gentle glance, Lian Yi swept over the other's beautiful features and politely replied:

"My name is He Lianyi, my star beast is called Whirlwind, I never interfere with his freedom to make friends, it's all up to him."

Ripples finished speaking and patted Whirlwind's head.

The whirlwind rolled over in its owner's arms, looked at the white dog in the girl's arms, bared its teeth, and then turned its rear end towards Koji.

Kouki's face kept changing colors after seeing it, and finally, she let out a cold snort. Then, with a look of frustration, she tapped the little white dog in her arms and said: Let me know if you need anything else translated!

"When people don't want to pay attention to you, you should know your place."

After saying that, he walked away with his head held high.

Ripple knew the other person's next words were about her, but so what They didn't name names. Why would she rush to argue with them

After Koji left, a gentle girl beside her smiled faintly at her.

Kouji's personality is a bit arrogant, she treasures her star beast Lilyan the most. Don't mind her.

The ripple also smiled back at the other party and then said:

"No, she's fine. I also cherish my star beast very much. It's just that Whirlwind is more clingy to me and doesn't want to make friends with other star beasts. I never force him."

The ripple's counter-argument disarmed the other party, causing the redhead beside her to pause for a moment.

What should I call you

My name is Hong Wenrou.

"Just by your name, I know you're a very gentle person."

Ripple gave a lackluster compliment, then turned and asked:

"What's your star beast"

We have contract star beasts.

Hong Wenrou's smile softened a bit, but she still answered her question.

She's a Beastman, she doesn't need help from Starbeasts. When something happens, she handles it herself.

Koji Bond went back and forth, directly exposing Hong Wenrou's true colors.

Hong Wenrou was slightly displeased and glared at the other person before turning her head to speak with someone else.

Kouki then came to Ripple's side and said with a smile:

"You're doing great! You managed to resist Hong Wenrou's provocations. Even though she's a Beastman, her mental power is A-grade, and she loves stirring up trouble between people."

"Really I'm not quite sure. I came from Lantus after joining the academy assessment."

"Koji, how do you speak like that What do you mean by stirring up trouble"omewhere right now, and at least in the short term, he wouldn't come looking for her. As for partnering with someone else, she wasn't optimistic either. After all, a group of people were always watchi...
