The next round was another group battle with a different lottery group. Only the one after that was individual beast battles. As the oldest spiritual beast among the participants and with the most experience, Xue Lang naturally landed in the top three places. In the championship battle, Xue Lang came out on top and that inadvertently made Shen Tianyu the zhuangyuan[1] in this competition.

Second place in the Sword Department competition, which she didn't belong to, and first place in the Beast Taming competition, such achievements would naturally cause a lot of powers to covet her. As she was leaving the stage, she could already feel a number of strong stares concentrated on her back and her spiritual beast.

As soon as she stepped out of the stadium, a sea of recruiters were pouncing on her. 

"Little Miss, would you like to join our Mahara Sect once you graduate? There will be plentiful benefits at your disposal!"

"Idiot! Move! Little Miss, join our Iraga Sect! You can become a member right now and directly promote to inner disciple once you graduate!"

"Little Miss, our Shentu Sect have bountiful pills passed out to our members! Pill Master Taye is from our sect!"

"Little Miss, our sect offers-"

"Little Miss-"

"Join us-"

The cacophony of noise echoed throughout the stadium. Other participants that saw gave her jealous glares but they couldn't do anything. Her spiritual beast certainly won without any tricks.

Shen Tianyu raised her hand and all the recruiters immediately quietened down, each eagerly awaiting her favorable answer.

"Honorable masters, it is this lowly girl's virtue to be recognized by you all. However, this lowly girl has already made herself home at a sect. I do not intend to leave for I wish to repay my lifesaving gratitude." Shen Tianyu cupped her hands and bowed to them. 

"Ah, that's too bad." Some of them said. Others praised her for her integrity to ingratiate themselves. They all scattered and went to find their next prey. Shen Tianyu walked alone to her waiting fiancee and friend, who watched everything from a distance and returned to Zhu Wangfu with them.

... 

The exams of the Medical Division were much less interesting and even less people went to see them. Since participants are required to pass previous Stages, Shen Tianyu had to attend the exams for the Physical Injury and Internal Medicine Stages before she got to her desired Poison Stage.

The first stage consisted of bringing in people with fake injuries and having the participants bandage and treat them. Proctors, from the senior students and a few less important elders, were to examine each patient and give the participant a score. Those above the threshold could move on to the next day's exam while those below would be forfeited. Due to limited space, the participants would be attending in groups but those who's turn had not arrived, were not allowed to leave the examination grounds. This gave the later participants an advantage since they could watch the previous scorings and prevent themselves from making the same mistake. Those whose scoring was finished were to leave the examination grounds immediately.

Though, it was more advantageous to be placed in a later group, Shen Tianyu volunteered to go in the first batch. She swiftly got the round over with and left with a near perfect score.

The sun had barely reached it's zenith as she walked with Rong Jian and Bai Yaoxuan to wander around the Main Road again. The three met up with a few other friends on the way and coagulated into a group of influential people with high positions.

... 

Shen Tianyu smoothly sailed through the second Medical Division exam from the Internal Medicine Stage. It wasn't anything hard since it was supposed to be for people that have only been learning for a single month. The content of the examination was identifying a few types of basic herbs and concocting a medicine to treat the illness of a "patient". It was just treating minor problems in the bodies and wasn't on a level that could stump Shen Tianyu. Although there were quite a few students who were found to be lacking when it came to the different steps. Pinpoiting the specific condition and identifying the required herbs was what most students were inadequate at. Brewing medicine was not a problem at all since it was all liquid brews and didn't reach the level of difficulty and concentration required for pill refining. Though it does take a while so the sun was passed it's zenith, contrary to the day before, when Shen Tianyu took her leave.

As for the day before and today, there were participants that passed and chose to excuse themselves from further examination for they had reached the level they wished to learn at. 

...

The day of the Poison Stage's examination, Shen Tianyu again went to the examination grounds with her fiancee and sister.

"You seem happy today." Rong Jian commented as they passed the students setting up their stalls for the day.

"Of course! After this, I won't have to come anymore. Besides, this was the Stage that I wanted to test for since the beginning." There is a skip to Shen Tianyu's steps as she walked. 

"I already arranged with Young Master Ningwu to meet at the stadium. You two can take your time later, when you're done." Bai Yaoxuan informed them with a smile.

"Ok! Remember to have fun yourself!" Shen Tianyu didn't pry further and just let it be. Seeing as Bai Yaixuan arrived in this world later than her, she reckons the girl probably has more reservations than before about dating.
