Chapter 28: Baseball Training Hall

It is known that the potential of the human brain is limitless, with nearly a hundred million neurons, both mysterious and fragile. Before the awakening of the Beast Control Canon, the brain was considered to be in a dormant state, no matter what.

After the awakening of the Beast Control Canon, it is referred to as the awakened state.

High IQ does not necessarily indicate the degree of brain development. The percentage of brain development is calculated from the moment the Beast Control Canon is awakened.

A regular Beast Tamer, after being awakened through magnetic wave stimulation, should have a brain development of around 2%. An autonomously awakened Beast Tamer, on the other hand, has a brain development of around 5%.

The more brain development, the better, but the key is stability.

Throughout history, many researchers have conducted experiments related to brain development, and without exception, they have concluded that brain development requires stability.

If it is unstable, the brain domain is likely to collapse.

Although Qiao Sang had previously sent a photo of the autonomous awakening proof to the admissions backend, at that time, everyone was so excited about having an autonomously awakened special student apply to their school that they only checked the personal seal and didn't pay much attention to the details.

However...

Chen Sheng Tang glanced at Fire Tooth Dog. Since this child could successfully contract a pet beast, the brain domain issue shouldn't be a problem.

He thought for a moment and still asked with some concern, "What did the person who conducted your brain domain test say?"

Qiao Sang nodded, "She said my brain waves fluctuate a lot and advised me to rest more and eat more dried fruits."

That should be fine. If the brain wave fluctuations were too severe, hospital observation would be necessary.

Chen Sheng Tang sighed in relief. He didn't want the only autonomously awakened special student to have any issues since the school's founding.

At this moment, the male teacher sitting opposite Chen Sheng Tang casually asked, "Your dark circles are quite heavy. Didn't you rest well?"

Qiao Sang replied sheepishly, "I stayed up all night last night."

Chen Sheng Tang: "..."

"Although the high school entrance exam is approaching, you should rest well and not stay up all night for studying," Chen Sheng Tang earnestly advised.

Qiao Sang, who had stayed up all night due to the loss of 5000 alliance coins, felt a bit guilty and nodded silently.

Seeing Qiao Sang's obedient demeanor, Chen Sheng Tang's thoughts returned to the brain domain.

If there were no issues, once stabilized, this child's brain domain threshold could reach up to 9%! Just one step away from the second awakening of the Beast Control Canon!

Although it's unlikely...

Normally, such brain wave fluctuations eventually stabilize at the lowest value or slightly above it.

Chen Sheng Tang stopped speculating, returned the information card and the proof of autonomous awakening to Qiao Sang, and introduced the only bald male teacher present.

"This is Teacher Zhao, responsible for your brain domain test."

"Hello, Teacher Zhao," Qiao Sang said.

Teacher Zhao nodded at Qiao Sang as a greeting.

"Don't look at Teacher Zhao like that; he is a genuine brain domain expert," Chen Sheng Tang smiled.

Indeed, experts in any field seem to have less hair...

...

In the testing room.

With the experience from the first test, Qiao Sang was much more relaxed for the second test and didn't overthink Teacher Zhao's micro-expressions.

With Qiao Sang's cooperation, the test was quickly completed.

Opening the door.

"Fire!"

Fire Tooth Dog's eyes lit up upon seeing Qiao Sang and happily pounced over, almost making Qiao Sang stumble.

Since Fire Tooth Dog had been wearing the weight rings, Qiao Sang hadn't carried it much. Fire Tooth Dog also knew it was a bit heavy for its Beast Tamer to hold for long, so it jumped down after staying in Qiao Sang's arms for 10 seconds.

"You two have a great relationship," Chen Sheng Tang couldn't help but comment.

It was his first time seeing a fire-type pet beast that was so obedient and affectionate.

"Um-hum," Qiao Sang smiled in response.

All the teachers who were in the office earlier were now waiting outside the testing room for Qiao Sang.

The grand setup for just a test made Qiao Sang, who wasn't nervous, start to feel nervous.

Teacher Zhao handed the test results to Chen Sheng Tang and said seriously, "There are no issues, but it hasn't stabilized yet."

Chen Sheng Tang took a look, and the test results were the same as the proof of autonomous awakening.

For autonomously awakened special students, the high school entrance exam score reduction is based on the degree of brain domain development, and each school has different standards.

For their school, the special admission benefit is a 100-point reduction from the Hanggang high school entrance exam minimum score for a 5% brain domain development, and a 200-point reduction for 6%.

However, Qiao Sang's brain domain was still fluctuating and had no stable percentage.

This was a bit tricky.

But it wasn't a big problem.

Chen Sheng Tang had already made his decision. He looked up and smiled at Qiao Sang, "Your brain domain hasn't stabilized yet, so we'll take the middle value for your score reduction."

Logically, if the brain domain fluctuates between 5% and 9%, it should stabilize at 5% or 6%.

But Chen Sheng Tang directly decided her brain domain was 7%.

The other teachers nearby didn't seem surprised.

This was the first autonomously awakened Beast Tamer to apply to their school since its founding. Whether the score reduction was 100 points more or less wasn't important; what mattered was showing the school's attitude.

As long as she applied to Hanggang Sixth Beast Tamer High School, the door would be open for her!

Qiao Sang naturally understood the meaning behind this.

Most ordinary Beast Tamer high schools only specify the score reduction standards for 5% to 6% brain domain development.

This is because in five years, a province might not produce a single middle school student with a brain domain development of 7% or higher.

Even if there were, they definitely wouldn't apply to an ordinary Beast Tamer high school.

It was touching to know that she could have a 300-point reduction from the minimum score, essentially telling her she was already accepted.

"Thank you," Qiao Sang said.

...

...

After leaving Hanggang Sixth Beast Tamer High School, it was only 10:32 AM.

Qiao Sang didn't take Fire Tooth Dog to Cha Gui Park for training as she had done in the past few days.

On the third floor of Vile Square.

Baseball Training Hall.

After paying for two hours, Qiao Sang brought Fire Tooth Dog to the mechanical training room.

This baseball training hall was specifically designed for practicing baseball, but Qiao Sang found it very suitable for Fire Tooth Dog's neural reaction speed training.

The mechanical training room, only about ten square meters, was empty except for two automatic baseball pitching machines.

"Fire Tooth Dog, try to dodge the balls that will be pitched. I'll be here with you, and if you get tired, just let me know," Qiao Sang said.

Although Fire Tooth Dog didn't know where the balls would come from, it obediently nodded.

The automatic baseball pitching machine has six settings, with the pitching speed increasing from the first to the sixth setting.

The weight rings on Fire Tooth Dog's right front leg were not removed. Qiao Sang went to the automatic baseball pitching machine and set it to the first setting.

Both automatic baseball pitching machines started, and the speed was not fast. Qiao Sang easily dodged a ball and then sat in a corner.
