294 A Terrific Star (2/2)

”Teacher, please wait!”

He hurried towards Wang Baole with his minions following closely behind. He stood in front of Wang Baole and blocked the latter's path to the door.

Wang Baole paused in his steps and raised his eyebrow. His mood hadn't taken a turn for the better since he had arrived on Mars. He glared at the person who dared stand in his way. He was about to speak when the youth smiled lightly and put on an appearance of maturity and experience. He cupped his fists towards Wang Baole and said casually.

”Teacher, I heard that the puppets you make are ultra-realistic. They're famous throughout the Federation. Are they for sale?”

The other students immediately raised their heads curiously and looked at Wang Baole. A few who seemed to have heard of his puppets had a look of interest on their faces.

Wang Baole was caught by surprise. He didn't expect the youth to ask about his puppets. Pleasure surged within him as he wondered if his puppets had indeed become so well-known. Still, he kept a poker-faced expression.

”You have a sharp eye for a kid. However, those things aren't good for health. Don't obsess over puppets. They're not toys. You can get one when you become an adult!” Wang Baole glanced at the youth before dishing out a few words of reprimand and continuing on his way.

The youth panicked at Wang Baole's indifference and shouted hurriedly.

”Teacher, I'm already an adult. My dad just bought me a hotel on Mars as a coming-of-age present. It's located right in front of the Fire Spirit Academy. It's a great spot. I'll exchange that for one of your puppets!”

”What?” Wang Baole paused in his tracks. He turned back and stared at the youth with shock in his wide eyes.

”A hotel for a puppet?”

”That's right, teacher. Are you going to do it or not?” The youth jerked his chin up proudly. He had a look that proclaimed loudly about how rich and grown-up he was.

Wang Baole sucked in a breath of air. Regardless of the other's family background, he still found the entire thing incredulous. He couldn't help but think that maybe the people of the Trilunaris Corporation had all become idiots from the sheer wealth they possessed. He couldn't control his curiosity, and he asked.

”Why? There are many people who make puppets. Why are you buying them from me?”

Upon hearing the question, the youth raised his chin higher and said arrogantly.

”Jin Duoming has your puppets by his side. I saw them when I returned to Earth a while back, and he kept showing them off in front of me. I won't take this lying down. I want one too. I want the exact same female puppet!”

Wang Baole gave the smug youth before him a deep, meaningful look. He had an odd expression on his face. If he were this kid's father, he would smack him to hell and back. The kid was an absolute disaster.

Seems like the people from the Trilunaris Corporation aren't normal. They're all prodigal sons and daughters… Jin Duoming used a Dharmic Armament to exchange for a fragment, and this kid is exchanging his hotel for a puppet…Wang Baole sighed. He seemed to keep running into ultra-rich folks. He felt more and more resigned to his fate. His destiny seemed to be providing more ways for these rich people to spend their money.

If that's the case, I shouldn't go against what fate has presented before me.At that thought, Wang Baole took in a deep breath. A bright smile appeared on his face, and he patted the youth on the shoulder.

”Kid, you have a bright future!” Wang Baole pulled out the puppet he was asking for immediately, and they completed the transaction. Wang Baole walked out of the classroom happily with the transfer deed in his hands. Inside the classroom, the youth also stared happily at his puppet, his eyes glowing with excitement and pleasure.

When Wang Baole reached his office, he stopped, suddenly, a few steps before the door. He smacked his forehead.

That's not right. My intentions are to be transferred out. Why did I start a business on Mars…He had mixed feelings at that juncture. He wouldn't be able to move the hotel when he left, and it would be a waste to sell it off as well. He had done some research on Mars before he had arrived. Property on Mars was precious and worth a great deal of money.

Forget it, let's not think too much about it now. This is still considered a terrific start on Mars.Wang Baole's mood improved visibly. He hummed as he pushed open the door to his office. The Dao Mountain Mist Academy didn't seem as bad as he had initially thought it to be.

Should I make a few more puppets to stand around in class and help with future lessons?Wang Baole was tempted to do that. It seemed like a good path to riches and wealth.
