Chapter 546 The Door God Combo (2/2)

Li Junzong hesitated for a moment, then shook his head. ”No, sir, everything's all right. Thank you for your concern, Young Master.”

”Good. I'll give you a raise and a promotion as long as you keep up the good work. I always make it a point to treat my best employees well.”

Li Junzong glanced at Gao Peng, opening and closing his mouth a few times as if trying to say something.

”What is it?” asked Gao Peng.

Li Junzong said abashedly, ”Young Master, I've already signed Blood Contracts with a Venomblood Rodent and Teacher Guan... I don't really know how to tell you this, but Teacher Qin has also decided to become my familiar.”

Gao Peng looked Li Junzong in the eye. Just when Li Junzong thought the former was going to object, Gao Peng smiled and said, ”Sure, why not? Looks like you've got two guarding gods on your team now.”

Li Junzong gave him a stupid grin.

”It's all right. Since they've agreed to follow you, I can't really say no, can I? I have a good grasp of the school's situation. Don't worry about the school's security. I can always send a couple of Lord-tier familiars over to take care of it.”

”Thank you, Young Master,” said Li Junzong, bowing to Gao Peng a few times.

When noon came, Gao Peng invited Li Junzong to lunch. In the afternoon, he turned on the television. The first thing that came on was a live broadcast of the Yuzhou base city's high school championship.

The host was explaining what was going on in the field over the crowd's excitement. ”We're now in the second round of the semifinals, with Yuzhou's Bazhong High School and Yuzhou's Public Military School facing off against each other to see who will advance to the finals and challenge last year's semifinalist, one of the eight strongest schools in the country—Tiange Academy!” The host made sure to yell the school's name as loudly as possible.

The background music was played as the camera swept across the auditorium, where not a single seat was left empty. A deafening roar rose from the audience.

They're already in the semifinals. Looks like Tiange Academy has safely advanced to the finals.

Gao Peng wasn't too surprised by this. Even though the Southern Sky Group didn't provide any of its familiars to the school's students, the school was still under the group. Under the condition that the students remained loyal to the school, there was no way a private school backed by a large-scale organization like the Southern Sky Group could ever be beaten by a public school.

This didn't mean that public schools were inferior to private schools, but unlike the Southern Sky Group, which only needed to channel its resources into one school, the government had to provide funding and resources for public schools throughout the region.

What he wanted from his school was quality. What the Allied Government wanted was quantity. This had always been the case when it came to education. Some of the top schools also seemed to be backed by huge organizations and people from the ancient tribes.

Gao Peng lay down on the sofa and closed his eyes.

Nan Ju walked up to Gao Peng's sofa and began massaging his shoulders, while Bei Zhi knelt down on the ground to massage his legs.

After thinking for a while, Gao Peng took out his phone and called his grandfather. ”Grandpa, I'll be leading the school's team in this year's championship.”
