Chapter 6 Junior Professional Competition
The smart bracelet placed on the table kept flashing, indicating that there were unread messages.
Lin Manman clicked on the bracelet and found a message from her classmate and friend Fang Yaqi. I looked at the time, it was 11:30 noon, it looked like school was over at noon.
"Manman, why did you ask for leave?"
"I heard about your brother's incident. Is it serious? Did the doctor say when the person will wake up?"
"Today the head teacher said that he will go to the Awakening Temple to participate in the professional awakening in three days. Did he inform you?"
"I have already paid the travel expenses for you. I will send you the specific arrangements and precautions later."
Lin Manman felt warm after seeing a series of news. The world is in a hot and cold state, and adversity is the most difficult thing to see in people's hearts.
Zeng Jin is bathed in the halo of her father and brother. She is considered a well-known figure in school and has good popularity.
But after his father disappeared, it was obvious that some of his friends stopped contacting him. This time her brother was injured, and Fang Yaqi was the only one who knew the news and sent greetings.
I first checked the class teacher's message and found that he had indeed left a message for me to set off in three days. I glanced at it briefly and then returned to Fang Yaqi to reply to the message.
"You can refund the travel expenses. I won't go to the awakening ceremony. I have awakened my profession on my own."
Everyone in this world has a free career awakening opportunity before the age of fifteen.
But if you awaken your profession before the age of fifteen, you can save this free opportunity for upgrading. After all, opening an awakening circle costs half a million Chinese coins.
Unless you are a particularly wealthy person, people who have awakened on their own will cherish this free opportunity.
"What did you say????" Fang Yaqi's message came back almost instantly, and a string of question marks almost overflowed the screen.
Before she could continue to reply to the message, the call request from the other party popped up. Lin Manman pressed the answer button without hesitation.
As soon as the call was connected, a sweet female voice came urgently. "Are you serious? Have you really awakened on your own? What is your profession? Oops, there are so many questions to ask. Where are you now? Is it convenient to meet you?"
Lin Manman suddenly remembered that Fang Yaqi's mother worked in the spirit animal shop, and she had an idea and agreed.
"Then I'll wait for you at the hot pot restaurant we often go to. I'll give you thirty minutes. If you arrive on time, I'll treat you. If you're late, you'll treat me."
Fang Yaqi hung up the call angrily, and Lin Manman chuckled. This girl probably didn't want her to spend money at this time, and was afraid that her self-esteem would be frustrated.
Will her self-esteem be bruised? People who think too much and wish they could just lie down and eat their old age have no sense of shame.
Whichever hot pot restaurant Fang Yaqi mentioned can be reached on foot in 30 minutes, but Lin Manman still chose to use a public land vehicle.
Hongyu was just born and was curious about everything. Lin Manman was not willing to give it a snake and threw it into the spiritual pet space, so he let her hang around his neck. Then she and Hongyu became the focus of the land vehicle, and were even photographed with bracelets.
"Sister, your snake is so beautiful and well-behaved. Can I touch it?" A six- or seven-year-old boy tugged on Lin Manman's trousers and looked longingly at the rainbow eyes that were looking around.
Lin Manman looked at the little boy at her feet and then at the smiling old man next to her. The other person was obviously the little boy's grandmother.
"Of course! You can touch 500 Huaxia coins for three minutes." Lin Manman bared her white teeth and neatly took out her bracelet to retrieve the payment code and showed it to the little boy's grandmother.
The smile on the little boy's grandmother's face suddenly froze, and she looked like a madman. "Where did you come from? Are you crazy about money? 500 only for three minutes? Is your snake made of gold?"
"Hey, don't insult my snake. This is a mid-level silver-level spiritual pet, a real war pet. Can you touch other people's war pets for only 500?"
Lin Manman, who became the center of attention, held up the rainbow jade and introduced it without blushing. Although it is just one day old, for a mid-level silver-level battle pet, the spiritual pet store starts with a minimum of 3 million. Hearing Lin Manman's words, there was a lot of discussion around him.
"This year's awakening ceremony for middle school students hasn't started yet, right? So this little girl awakened on her own?"
"Oh, that's great."
"Is the snake a war pet? It seems that the little girl has awakened as a beast master, and she also has her first spiritual pet. Does she have a mine at home?"
"Who has a mine at home to make a public land vehicle?"
"Don't you want to take the eldest lady to experience life?"
"It's so funny that the young lady is trying to experience life and defrauding children of their money?"
In the midst of everyone's discussion, the little boy's grandmother dragged the little boy back to his seat and turned his head away from her. When it was time to get out of the car, Lin Manman could only put away her bracelet with regret and get out of the car with Hongyu.
After getting out of the car and turning a corner, she saw Fang Yaqi jumping in front of the hot pot restaurant and waving to her.
Fang Yaqi is actually a very sweet-looking girl. She has short, ear-length hair that is permed and curly, making her look more playful and cute. The complete opposite to his appearance is his personality. Not only is he quick-tempered and very hot-tempered, but he is also straightforward and has no ill intentions.
"Did you not get enough rest? The dark circles under your eyes are so heavy." Fang Yaqi asked with concern. A pair of dog eyes with drooping tails, which look particularly innocent when looking at people intently.
Lin Manman shrugged. It wasn't that he didn't get a good rest, it was that he didn't get any rest at all.
"Ah!!! Why is there a snake?" Lin Manman was wearing white clothes and her skin was white. When the rainbow jade was hanging around her neck, it was not very obvious from a distance.
At this moment, Lin Manman came closer, shrugged her shoulders again, and bumped into Hongyu. Hongyu subconsciously raised her head and looked over.
At first sight, Fang Yaqi saw a snake's head raised toward her. She was so frightened that she jumped three steps back on one leg, and her round little face was ashen.
"Look at your potential, this is my spiritual pet Hongyu. It will not attack people without my order." Lin Manman looked at Fang Yaqi's cowardly look, and her nose almost turned up. She is no longer the snake-phobic person who needed to mentally prepare for a long time before signing a contract.
Fang Yaqi was stunned when she heard this, and it took her a long time to react. "You awakened as a beast master? You contracted a spiritual pet just after you awakened?"
In order to avoid being scolded at the door, Lin Manman pulled Fang Yaqi inside and said, "Let's go in and eat and chat. I haven't eaten much since last night and I'm starving to death."
While waiting for the food to be served, Lin Manman told Fang Yaqi roughly about himself and his family, but did not say specifically that he had awakened his talent.
"This day has been full of ups and downs. Maybe you were stimulated and awakened on your own. Now that you are ready for the exam, what are your plans next?"
"Let's find a way to make money. I remember your mother worked in a spiritual pet store? Are they hiring summer workers?" She can't count on the salary, but if she wants to make money, she has to start with spiritual pets. Going directly to a spiritual pet store to work part-time is obviously the most suitable job to get in touch with spiritual pets.
"I haven't asked, I'll send a message to ask." Fang Yaqi said and sent a message to her mother with her bracelet. She looked up at Lin Manman, who was hesitant to speak.
"If you have something to say, just say it. This is not like you."
"Have you ever thought about participating in the Junior Professional Competition? I heard that the top five in this year's Junior Professional Competition will not only receive a bonus of two million Chinese coins, but also a skill book."
Fang Yaqi glanced at the newborn Hongyu and felt a little embarrassed after saying this. It seems that it is a bit reluctant for such a weak spiritual pet to compete with other professionals.
Lin Manman paused for a moment. There were too many things going on this day, occupying all her thoughts. She really didn't think about this competition.
