Chapter 459 Yearning
“Student?”
Su Ping raised his eyebrows. He was about to say no when he thought of something.
The Holy Light Base City was a sacred place for trainers, and one of the most important base cities of the Subcontinent District. The economy there was more developed and had a less restrained flow of information. He would spend most of his time at the store in the Longjiang Base City where he wouldn’t receive information timely. The Longjiang Base City was far from the Holy Light Base City. When something sensational happened there, the people from his Base City wouldn’t even know. This inconvenience went both ways.
Also, in this day and age, trainers had the most honorable position.
Trainers were more glamorous than battle pet warriors of the same rank.
To build up a connection in the circle of trainers should be beneficial for him.
“Sure. I can take a look.”
Su Ping nodded.
The relations.h.i.+p between a teacher and a student would be firm. Su Ping was talking to the Vice Chairman and he and s.h.i.+ Haochi were acquaintances. However, he had just met the two and had not built up a close relations.h.i.+p, yet. At the same time, since he had to take care of the store, he had little time to get to know the two.
But a student would be different. The student would have to stay with him and would somewhat count as a member of his family.
The Vice Chairman smiled. “We’re going to choose the first place and second place winners in the next couple of days. The other top trainers and master trainers will go and pick students as well. You can offer an invitation to anyone you like. Those partic.i.p.ants are eager to learn from top trainers.”
“Good.”
Su Ping nodded.
“You come from a distant place. I suppose you haven’t found accommodations yet. How about I arrange that for you?”
“Okay. Thanks.”
s.h.i.+ Haochi had two daughters and Su Ping was a young man. It could be inconvenient for him to continue living there.
At the same time, the conference was resumed.
It was held in another venue.
As for the previous fights, upon receiving the Vice Chairman’s approval, Master Bai told the public that it had been an internal conflict and covered up the facts.
Su Ping had pa.s.sed the tests and had been identified as a top trainer. It wasn’t a lie to say that he was one member of the Trainers a.s.sociation.
To cla.s.sify the nature of the fights as an internal conflict would in a way save the dignity of the headquarters. At least for the public in general, they wouldn’t be able to tell that it had been an outsider who had shown up and bullied the Trainers a.s.sociation. As for internal conflict, it was nothing strange; all families had internal conflicts.
Internal conflicts were trivial matters… Although, in this “internal conflict”, a t.i.tled battle pet warrior and a young master of the Xiao Family had died. A building that had gone through the tests of time, full of master trainers’ portraits, had collapsed… that was still acceptable. After all, what could be done even if they didn’t accept it? Life had to go on. Cutting losses in time was the right way to go.
The two deceased had died an unworthy death, though. After all that happened, the conference didn’t go smoothly. No one could focus their minds on the conference. They would think about Su Ping every now and then. The young man who had emerged from nowhere had left such a deep impression that no one could erase the previous conflict from their thoughts.
Su Ping didn’t partic.i.p.ate in the conference. The Vice Chairman took the chance to introduce him to other top trainers. Su Ping was then officially seen as one of the top trainers.
The top trainers Su Ping met were quite friendly and they spoke nicely to him. The top trainers were familiar with each other. Even though their fields of study were different, everyone was on good terms.
After all, they were all men with some standing. They knew better than to incur hatred and knew full well what to say. Master Bai was also a kind top trainer. Of course, his kindness was limited to people of the same circle.
The Vice Chairman introduced and praised Su Ping. As such, the top trainers made note of him. They had to remember him, a top trainer who was quite young.
They even saw him with more astonishment and kindness when they heard that Su Ping had inspired a Bloodmist Spirit within one move.
The Vice Chairman also told them about the Moonfrost Dragon. The praise they offered to Su Ping was sincere; he could tell that the Vice Chairman was indeed fond of him.
Someone was unable to fight back the urge to ask Su Ping’s age. Su Ping answered honestly. A man would not mind telling others his age.
