Chapter 91 - Acceptance (1/2)

“Exhibition match?” Luo Guxue had just returned from the barren area. Su Ping’s answer reminded her that such an event had taken place that day. The feeling of satisfaction triggered by their encounter quickly vanished. She was disappointed. She had thought that Su Ping had accepted her invitation to become a teacher. After all, the Vice Princ.i.p.al was there to see him out in person, and they were talking happily.

At the same time, she was confused. Usually, no outsiders were invited to the exhibition match. Only students and their families could partic.i.p.ate. What is Su Ping doing here?

Dong Mingsong asked with surprise, “Mrs. Luo, do you know him?”

Luo Guxue came back to her senses and nodded. “Mr. Su saved my life. Thanks to Mr. Su timely rescue I was able to come back from the barren area.”

“The uncultivated area?” Dong Mingsong was baffled and so were the others including Feng Baili. They looked at each other and then cast their glances at Su Ping. This guy had visited the barren area? What did it mean when Luo Guxue said he went to her rescue?

They weren’t familiar with Luo Guxue. That being said, Luo Guxue was the main member of Team Polaris, and they knew each other. If Luo Guxue, who was at the intermediate position of the seventh-rank, was in danger, then only a battle pet warrior at the peak of the seventh-rank or the eighth-rank could have helped her. How could Su Ping save her?

“Tell me. What is that about?” Dong Mingsong asked, curious.

The others darted glances of curiosity at her as well.

For all this time, Luo Guxue had been grateful to Su Ping for this matter. She told them about how they had been attacked by the Magical Corpse Beast. At the end of the story, she expressed her grat.i.tude to Su Ping once more. “Mr. Su, I will gladly repay your kind help. You can come to me for anything you may need me for.”

Su Ping was speechless. He could have made a quick escape; he just wanted to go back home. However, when Luo Guxue told the story, he couldn’t just cut her off. Being under the heated and shocked gazes of those present, he felt he was a gorilla of a rare kind. He said with a bitter smile, “Well, you guys go on. When you’re free, come to my store but please remember to take enough money with you.”

The others came back to their senses but they were still stunned. Su Ping, who was most likely around the age of 20, could defeat a Magical Corpse Beast. Really? Not to mention that the Magical Corpse Beast was one that had learned ninth-rank pet skills.

Didn’t this practically imply that Su Ping was not weaker than them?

They didn’t doubt Luo Guxue’s words. After all, she had her pride and fame. She didn’t need to make up a story and lie to them. Simply put, this matter was astonis.h.i.+ng, and unimaginably queer. Su Ping had the age of a student. It was rare to achieve what Ye Hao and Su Yanying had accomplished at this age. If everything went on smoothly, in the future, those two could become advanced battle pet warriors; even becoming eighth-rank master battle pet warriors would be possible!

However, Su Ping had already reached that level when he was about their age. If Ye Hao was called a talent, then what was Su Ping? A freak?

While everyone was still numbed by shock, Su Yanying fixed her eyes on Su Ping. She couldn’t reconcile the image of this young store owner who idled away in his store all day long with that powerful warrior, one that could kill a Magical Corpse Beast at the upper position of the eighth-rank. Su Yanying knew that Su Ping was mysterious and most likely there was a master trainer in his pet store. She was willing to believe when someone told her that he was a talent. That being said, with the strength to kill a Magical Corpse Beast of the upper position of the eighth-rank… he was more than a talent. He was a mature, powerful warrior that could take charge by himself!

To become such a strong man, in addition to talent, their efforts were also extremely important. Yet, the way Su Yanying saw Su Ping was that it seemed he just squandered time at the store, single-mindedly trying to make money.
