Rebirth of the Heavenly Empress - Chapter 74
Chapter 74: Mock Examinations
Empress Su’s entire body shivered and its triangular-shaped ears instantly drooped.
With a pair of bright eyes, it looked up at Su Huiqing, its glass-like eyes covered with a layer of mist.
Making it appear so elegant and muddled.
Su Huiqing laughed softly. She used the other hand to pay its head, then threw it on the chair.
“Don’t think about trying to deceive me,” She took her clothes and opened the bathroom door. Before closing it, she looked calmly over at Empress Su, “After all, your life is up to me and not up to fate.”
Empress Su’s fluffy ears straightened stiffly.
Its eyes widened with a human-like shock.
It gazed at the closed door and placed its paws on the backrest of the chair. On the side of the metal chair, it easily formed a scratch mark.
In the bathroom, Su Huiqing took the medicinal herbs that were at the side and placed them into the bathtub.
Then, she placed the snow jade that was hanging from her neck inside and instantly, a thick holy energy emerged.
She took a bath for an hour and only after taking in all the medicinal effects, she then wiped her body dry.
She picked up the clothes at the side and casually draped over herself.
These days, she had not stopped her cultivation and she could faintly sense that she was about to ascend another stage. She was just missing a tool for refining potion. Hopefully Yu Xiangyang could find it as soon as possible.
After all, how could a top-grade potion maker not have tools that were readily available?
After obtaining it, it would be time to awaken a hibernating dragon.
Shrouded in mist, she reached out her hands to wipe the mirror. In the mirror’s reflection, there was a beautiful and delicate face, with a strand of wet hair sticking to her cheeks, and her dark eyes could not conceal the sharpness and evilness in her eyes.
She slowly swept away the dark hair that was stuck to the side of her face.
Before obtaining the tool, she still needed to lie low, afterwards she should make a full investigation about…
The battle at the International Battlefield.
Who was the mastermind behind it?
And who wanted to plot against the Unknown Island and had planned such an elaborate scheme regardless of the extent of its influence.
In the mirror, the pair of dark eyes instantly turned cold!

The mock examinations were about to take place at Yizhong High School and Green Middle School.
Regardless of which school, both schools were paying much attention to this upcoming mock examination. The competition between both schools had been ongoing for a few years.
Both of them had comparable results, so it was an intense competition during each mock examination.
The origin of the first-placed student was very important to both schools, as this indicated the quality of students that the school would attract the next year.
Both schools, regardless of students or teachers, were extremely nervous.
Yizhong High’s teachers all held papers outside the examination hall as they chatted with one other.
“Our school’s Gu Li and Shen Anan both are very likely to come in first this time,” an old-fashioned teacher wearing black-framed spectacles said while carrying the papers.
Another young female teacher wearing a floral-printed long skirt shook her head, “The chances are low. Green Middle School has a God of examinations. If Gu Li was competing against the previous year’s batch, it would be easy for him to come in first, but in comparison to this God of examinations, other geniuses would not seem as great.”
“Why are you supporting the other school?” the teacher with black-framed spectacles started and turned to look at another person. “Teacher Wan, Gu Li is from your class, what do you think are his chances?”
Teacher Wan could not help but gaze at a young girl who was carrying a school bag nearby.
She held onto a bottle of milk with her mouth, her hand was casually placed in her pocket and her hand was messy on her head.
As though she sensed a gaze peeking at her, she turned her head to look over.
She smiled at Teacher Wan with a very arrogant smile, causing many people to stop and look at her.
Teacher Wan smiled and retracted his gaze, he said to other teachers, “Don’t come to a conclusion so easily. after all… who knows if there might be a dark horse?”
Dark horse?
All the teachers scoffed as they thought he was joking.
After all, if there was a dark horse, why wait until now?
Naturally, Su Huiqing did not know about this.
The last examination was the international language test.
This was too easy for Su Huiqing. She only spent half an hour before she submitted her papers.
The invigilator was shocked when they saw her carry her bag that was placed at the podium, slung it behind her back, then walked out of the classroom. Her graceful back view actually seemed a little bold.
Qu Yan, who was in the same examination hall saw her submit her papers.
She immediately filled up the papers without thinking, submitted her paper, carried her bag and chased after Su Huiqing.
The invigilator looked down and saw Qu Yan’s paper that was right at the top. She had cleverly avoided all the correct answers to the questions.
The invigilator immediately shook his head and continued invigilating with his hands behind him.
If he had taken away Qu Yan’s paper, he would definitely see the paper underneath that had almost all the right answers.
The two of them did not leave right after they walked out, instead they waited at the field for Gu Li.
There was a group of people on the field playing basketball, and one of them was Yu Xiangyang. He had always been playful and was not serious about examinations. There was no one in his family who could control him, and since he had been doing as he wished for a long time, it was not strange for him to miss a few examinations.
Qu Yan had been used to being tortured by Su Huiqing for the past period of time, so she put down her bag and started to run two rounds around the track.
Running two rounds only made her sweat, whereas her breath did not change. Even she herself was surprised, when did her body become so strong?
She pulled up the corner of her school top to wipe her sweat. When she lifted her head, she saw Yu Xiangyang’s group throw a basketball directly at Su Huiqing.
Su Huiqing was leaning against the tree using her earphones without any change in her facial expression, as though she was talking to someone.
She did not avoid it, even her gaze was filled with calmness.
Qu Yan and Yu Xiangyang knew her capabilities, so they watched her calmly.
Whereas the people who played basketball with Yu Xiangyang were shocked, “Damn it, you should dodge it!”
Just as the ball was about to touch the top of her head, she straightened her body. With one hand free, she used it to grab the ball and threw it high up!
No one could see her reactions clearly!
Her hand movement was too quick!
Even the basketball had become an incomplete image, whose trace could not be seen.
They only saw the ball fly directly towards the basketball hoop.
Eventually, the ball hit against the board, spun a few rounds, before passing through the net.
Then it bounced off the ground and bounced away.
When Yu Shijin came to look for Su Huiqing at Yizhong High School, he saw this scene.
He narrowed his eyes and suddenly stopped. He did not care about the gazes others shot at him, he looked straight at the basketball court with eyes that were like a torch.
Under the sunlight, that handsome figure was holding his cell phone, the other hand on the earphone, as his cold dark eyes gazed in front.
In the direction where she stood.
He could see the basketball that had landed accurately inside, still bouncing on the ground near her.
