Cultivation Pet Shop Chapter 396

The two of them continued to argue just like this while Lin Fan's group awkwardly sat there.
It was even more awkward for Lin Fan since Fu Ling was still stuck to him, rubbing up against him, using her body to try to seduce him.
Of course, Lin Fan wasn't interested in this.
While there were those that were a part of the itty bitty committee, Lin Fan wasn't one of those. He also didn't want them to be too big because he felt that was smothering to him, so he liked those that were just right.
But that was the least of his concerns.
The main concern that he had was the chill that was assaulting his back, completely freezing it and poking it full of holes.
Finally, the two of them stopped arguing and Fu Ling let go of Lin Fan.
This was a very wide table, so they went to opposite sides and sat down, but they also made sure that they were facing Lin Fan.
When Lin Fan saw that their fight was over, he gave a cough and asked, "President, can I ask why you invited me here today? Is there another mission that you want to give me?"
Qiao Yi Fei took a deep breath and calmed herself before saying in a casual voice, "Actually, it's about what my grandfather mentioned last time. Do you still remember?"
Lin Fan revealed a confused look as he said, "What did the senior say last time?"
Fu Ling didn't miss the word "senior" that came from Lin Fan. It seemed like the Qiao Family still hadn't fully won this young man over yet.
She could tell that he was powerful, not to mention the two that came with him. It was clear that he had quite the background if these two experts were staying with him at all times.
She liked people like this the most. They liked feeling powerful and with her appearance, it was quite easy for her to delude them into wanting to protect her. She loved feeding on these kinds of young men.
Qiao Yi Fei didn't notice the change in Fu Ling's eyes, she just continued, "The Hunters Exam, did you already forget?"
Lin Fan knitted his brows to think about it and then he realized that the old man had indeed mentioned this before. He had said that Qiao Yi Fei would be giving him the information that he needed for the Hunters Exam when the time came.

However, when he thought about it again, he felt that it was too early.
He had been told that the Hunters Exam wouldn't be for another three weeks or so, so why was she telling him about this now?
Qiao Yi Fei saw the change on Lin Fan's face and said, "It is quite a bit of time before the Hunters Exam, but seeded candidates like you get information ahead of time. What? Do you not want it?"
Lin Fan immediately shook his head and said, "No, I do."
This was information that would make it easier for him in the Hunters Exam, Lin Fan would be a fool if he didn't accept this.
At the same time, the fact that he was still given this information after what he had done clearly meant that the old man must have covered for him with the Hunters Organization.
If only Lin Fan knew the truth.
Not only did the old man not do anything, there were actually other Hunters that had praised him for finding such a good seed. In fact, the old man didn't suffer at all, but rather Old Fu kept offering him more and better items just to take Lin Fan away from him.
Qiao Yi Fei actually found it a bit funny how quickly Lin Fan replied and revealed a smile, but then she realized something and quickly shook her head.
She calmed herself and revealed the same ice cold look as she said, "The Hunters Exam isn't the same as the other exams you've taken before, it's much more chaotic than you think."
Lin Fan was confused as he asked, "Chaotic? What do you mean by that?"
Qiao Yi Fei casually explained, "It's very simple, there's no set examiner for this exam each year, so the content of the exam is different every time. It all depends on the examiner who will be administering the exam."
Lin Fan then asked, "Then who are the examiners? How are they chosen?"
Qiao Yi Fei said, "There are no fixed examiners because that's how the Hunters Organization is. The examiners will always be Hunters, but Hunters are very busy people because they chase after the things they are interested in. Sometimes it might take them several decades just to complete a hunt, so it's usually whoever's free that is chosen to be the examiner."
Lin Fan knitted his brows slightly when he heard this and asked, "But why would they choose to accept this job as an examiner? Wouldn't this take away time from their hunt?"

It was at this point that Fu Ling cut in, "Even if the Hunters Organization is very relaxed in their organization of their members, they are still an organization in the end. Of course they would have some rules, or how could they be one of the top factions in this upper realm? Each Hunter has an obligation to be an examiner when they become a Hunter, so they have to do it at least once."
Qiao Yi Fei ignored Fu Ling and continued, "There's usually three to five rounds in the Hunters Exam, it all depends on how many people are dropped in the various rounds. If they don't have enough people for a fourth round, they will usually end it in the third round. After all, everyone is busy, so the sooner they end it, the better."
Lin Fan nodded before asking, "Then what's the first round?"
Qiao Yi Fei revealed another smile at this before saying, "Why are you asking about the first round?"
Lin Fan was taken aback at first, but then he said in a confused voice, "Why wouldn't I ask about the first round if I'm taking the Hunters Exam?"
Qiao Yi Fei's smile became even wider and she finally couldn't help breaking out in laughter. On the other side, Fu Ling was the same.
But after they heard the laughter coming from the opposite side of the table, they locked gazes before turning and both giving a soft snort.
Of course, this was the power of handsomeness.
Just because Lin Fan was handsome, these girls were more willing to go along with his dumb questions.
If he was ugly, Qiao Yi Fei would have immediately called him an idiot and lost her patience with him. It didn't matter if her grandfather had a good impression of him, she would be impatient since she wouldn't want to look at him if he was ugly.
Lin Fan just waited patiently for them, though he was confused why they were laughing at him.
After a bit of silence, Qiao Yi Fei turned back and said, "Did you forget that you can skip the first round with the token grandfather gave you?"
Lin Fan thought about it again and then he realized that this was true. The old man had told him about this last time and Lin Fan had completely forgotten.
Seeing the look on Lin Fan's face, Qiao Yi Fei could immediately tell what had happened.
She revealed another smile because she couldn't help finding it funny. She even felt that Lin Fan's confused look actually looked a bit handsome.
But then she quickly caught herself and shook her head.
What was she doing?
She only had Diabolis in her heart.
But...He really was too handsome...It wasn't fair.
Qiao Yi Fei gathered her thoughts and gave a cough before saying, "Since you're asking, I'll tell you anyway. Every year, the first exam is always the same topic, but never the same in terms of content. It's always a test of endurance."
Lin Fan was surprised before asking, "Endurance?"
Qiao Yi Fei nodded before saying, "Endurance is the foundation of everything. No matter what you're hunting, you need the endurance to continue the hunt, don't you think?"
Lin Fan thought about it before giving a nod.
While he was happy about skipping this since it seemed like it would be tiring, he didn't feel that it would be a problem for him.
Then Lin Fan asked, "What about the second round?"
Qiao Yi Fei paused for a bit before hesitantly saying, "I can't tell you exactly what is in the second round, but I can tell you who will be administering the second round."
Lin Fan was confused again as he asked, "How would that help me?"
Fu Ling once again cut in by saying, "Of course it would help. The person in charge of that round will be the one who will set the content, so that means that by knowing what kind of Hunter they are, you can at least expect what kind of exam it would be. Take a Food Hunter for example, they would definitely set up an exam that has something to do with food."
Lin Fan suddenly understood and gave a nod as he said, "Oh!"
Qiao Yi Fei once again ignored Fu Ling and said, "The examiner for the second round will be Shi Yan, he's a Ruins Hunter. I'm sure you can tell what kind of things he hunts after."
Ruins Hunter.
Lin Fan couldn't help smiling at this since it was right in the name.
Lin Fan then asked, "What about the third round?"
At this, both Fu Ling and Qiao Yi Fei knitted their brows.
Qiao Yi Fei hesitantly said, "The third examiner...That one is a bit tricky…"
