Chapter 333 Paying a Visit
Since all the battles in Group E had been fought, the day’s agenda had reached the end. Afterward, celebrities that the owner of the venue had invited ca to put on a show. There was a remarkable singer’s live performance. The entertainnt elent brought an end to the first half of the fight for the Top 10 spots.
As the celebrities went onto the stage, the audience was again seized by passion. But so titled battle pet warriors of the major families and the participants began to gradually take their leave.
The performance was just for the sake of the public. In this world, battle pet warriors were more prominent than anyone else. Therefore, they didn’t have to chase after the stars. They beca the brightest stars when they were powerful enough. Su Lingyue said goodbye to Ye Hao, Luo Fengtian, and Su Yanying, then hurried to the place where the family mbers were seated.
Along the way, the audience cried out in excitent as they saw her. They looked at her as if she were their idol and nothing could calm down their excitent.
“You did well.”
Su Ping stood up and smiled as people were still shouting in joy. Su Lingyue blushed. “Don’t make fun of . I didn’t do anything.”
“That is exactly where you did well.”
Su Lingyue: 8(°4°111)__
“Let’s go.”
Since more and more people were looking their way, Su Ping and Su Lingyue made a quick getaway to get back ho.
The atmosphere beca less exciting as more and more people left the venue. In the anti, though, the intranet of Longjiang Base City was boiling with exhilaration!
The battles had been live-stread on the internet. Tens of millions of the Longjiang Base City had been able to watch the competition as it happened.
Of all the stunning matches, Qin Shaotian and Su Lingyue’s stood out as the most shocking. None other ca even close!
Many people had watched that match with the utmost concentration. The viewers had been astounded by the Bloody Servant as well as the two dragons Qin Shaotian had. Anyone would have thanked heaven if they could own a dragon, let alone two.
Of course, the most shocking part was when the judge had been hurt.
Those who were watching the live stream were unable to utter a sound. Shock had overwheld them once they saw how the title-ranked judge had lost an arm when he tried to intervene.
To the general public, the titled battle pet warriors were the most powerful people in the world and they enjoyed high status. As long as they didn’t encounter beast kings, nothing could harm those exalted pet warriors!
However, while at a place such as the Elite League where the sixth rank was the highest attainnt, a titled battle pet warrior’s life had been threatened! How crazy was that!
It was said that the talented could defeat those at a higher rank. But it shouldn’t have been anything like this!
The battle pet warriors of the famous academies in the base city, whichever year they were at, had been dumbstruck by that match, which had shown them sothing which was not in the test book.
People’s abilities shouldn’t be judged only by checking their rank!
That was a fact known by all the students from famous academies. But, they had never understood as clearly as they did in this mont!
Once the live streaming was over, many video websites posted the edited version of the battle as the highlight of the day on their main pages!
Kings Battling!
A Fight Between the Mightiest!
A Dragon Almost Finished the Judge, a Titled Battle Pet Warrior!!
Dragon with Comprehensive Abilities Helped Sixth-rank Battle Pet Warrior Fight Against One at the Titled Level!!
Bloody Servant Crushed by the Golden Dragon!
Champion at the Longjiang Base City Determined!!
Those exaggerated titles were blinking on the front pages. All the focus was on the words “titled rank” and “dragon.” The other participant of the match, Qin Shaotian, seed to have been forgotten by everyone.
Qin Shaotian had enjoyed a high reputation before that day. But this ti, he had beco the supporting role.
No one was certain about how strong Qin Shaotian was, but everyone knew that the judge was at the titled rank.
That was the most stunning part, the sole fact that had made the greatest impact! Soon after the ga, Su Lingyue’s support rate jumped to the top of the list from the thirteenth place!
People began to see her as the most likely champion, even more so than Mu Yuanshou.
On that day, the na “Su Lingyue” was heard all across the Longjiang Base City. Every barber knew about it!
While the sensation on the internet kept on going, many people had beco Su Lingyue’s fans. At the sa ti, soone restated that Su Lingyue was the person whom the store had proclaid as the next champion.
Many people knew about this but they had never taken it seriously because they had seen it as a publicity stunt. But then, they saw that it was more than a social buzz.
For the girl to win first place was sothing with a high likelihood!
Not even the judge had been able to stop her. He ended with a severe injury. If she couldn’t win first place, who could?
As this information was reposted, so people jumped out on the internet to say that they had beco Su Lingyue’s hardcore fans. They even went as far as to share posts on the forums, saying that if Su Lingyue couldn’t win first place, they would stick their hands into an electric fan operating at the fastest speed!
For a mont, all the electric fans were scared by the sheer thought.
So people shifted their focus to the Primo stores.
As the news of the guaranteed championship spots were revisited, naturally, stories of the previous competition between the two stores were reposted. So people had made videos to educate people about that matter so that people who didn’t bother to check knew about them.
Based on the current status, Su Lingyue was very likely to beco the final winner, which was a much-anticipated outco. On the other hand, Liu Jianxin, another popular participant, had instantly lost to Qin Shaotian, even though Primo had claid that Liu Jianxin would surely snatch a Top 5 spot. Having lost that match, Liu Jianxin’s ti in the Elite League had co to an end. He could not even get a place in the Top 10!
But the Elite League had to go on. The current result had been a heavy slap on the face for Primo. Their slogans had been enticing but their decisions had also been risky. Seeing them just then... They were unable to keep their promises, which destroyed their reputation. Since Liu Jianxin couldn’t even make it to the Top 10, Primo had beco a laughingstock.
Riding on the tide, so people who claid to have been Primo’s past custors even pointed out how the Primo would bully custors based on their business size. For example, Primo would sell expired pet food and wouldn’t compensate when pets suffered from food poisoning. There were also cases of pets getting incurable illnesses when left there for training
Before the Elite League, Primo was the only noticeable pet store on the market. Many of their past deeds had been hidden from the public, but all the truth began to resurface that day.
Hitting a man when he’s down. That was what Primo was going through right then.
Inevitably, every store was bound to have disputes with so custors.
Not to ntion a franchise like Primo.
So branch stores were operating under Primo’s na, but had worriso services and staff mbers. That was the main cause for Primo’s negative reviews.
Primo’s background was complicated. The Liu family was behind the business, which guaranteed the supply of money and business channels. But with it, ca so disadvantages. So patriarch-based managent was applied in the Primo stores. So family mbers who lacked the ability had managed to climb high on the company ladder by leveraging their relationships in the family, sothing which had proverbially set a ti bomb for Primo.
A bomb that was bound to go off.
It had not been the first ti for Primo to be accused, but people who had received normal services would drown those voices, thinking that they were people hired to slander Primo.
This ti, because of what had happened to Su Lingyue and Liu Jianxin, and because of Su Lingyue’s high popularity, the once loyal custors were keeping their mouths shut. A few of them would still jump out and argue for Primo’s sake, but their voices were quickly subrged by criticism.
No one could deny the fact that Liu Jianxin had lost!
The promise made by Primo had beco a joke!
That night, countless people lost their sleep.
At the Liu family estate.
The territories of the Qin family, the Mu family, as well as the Ye family.
On Taohuaxi Street.
Su Ping had taken Su Lingyue ho. That night, their mom threw them a party to celebrate her win. The dinner was fancy. Their mom was excited. Never did she imagine that Su Lingyue would be able to attain such an achievent.
When she returned ho, so old neighbors went to congratulate her in person, which filled her with pride and excitent.
At dinner, Li Qingru asked Su Lingyue about the dragon. She heard from Su Lingyue that it had been a gift from Su Ping.
That was the sa answer Li Qingru had heard before. Li Qingru had to turn to Su Ping to find out where he had gotten the dragon, how the dragon had been trained to beco so powerful, and so on and so forth.
She attacked him with a torrent of questions. Su Ping didn’t know where to begin; he couldn’t tell her about the store. He said that he had access to a mysterious auction using his connections in the academy and got the dragon there. He claid that he didn’t know the dragon was that smart; it had progressed by leaps and bounds with so casual training.
Li Qingru was dubious of this answer.
Su Lingyue was also curious about the way the dragon had been trained. She could easily tell that Su Ping was making it all up; there were too many loopholes in his story.
Of course, she wouldn’t point that out. She just thought that he was worse at making up stories than her.
Finally, dinner ended, and Su Ping escaped from ho. He noticed there was a crowd of reporters waiting at the store. Su Lingyue followed him, planning to continue training at the store.
So reporters noticed Su Lingyue and Su Ping. They cried out in excitent, and then all of them turned to the two like animals picking up the sll of blood.
Su Ping frowned. He mobilized astral powers and set up an invisible shield five ters around him.
The reporters ran to them. So ran so fast that they bumped into the shield, but it was soft so no one got hurt; they were only bounced back.
After that, the reporters were reminded that Su Lingyue was a battle pet warrior and she could beat them all up. Out of instinct, the reporters thought Su Lingyue was the one who had built the shield which was similar to an astral shield.
As for Su Ping, the reporters didn’t recognize him. After all, they had shown up for Su Lingyue alone.
“Miss Su, I’m from Blue Phoenix Radio. Can I ask you so questions? Your dragon...” “Miss Su, I’m from Nanxiang dia, I...”
Everyone was shouting their questions, elbowing their way through and pushing others aside.
Su Ping raised his eyebrows. Su Lingyue was still in a daze. “They’re all here for you. Deal with them yourself. You know what you can say and what you cannot say. If soone wants to interview you sowhere else, simply turn them down,” Su Ping told Su Lingyue.
Having said that, Su Ping left the energy shield to Su Lingyue, then he pushed his way through and walked into his store.
Su Lingyue was surprised that Su Ping would leave her behind. Soon, she thought of a reason: that guy must be getting back at her for not helping him fool their mom at dinner!
Such a petty guy!
Su Ping closed the door. It seed that Su Lingyue would not enter the place for the ti being. He shook his head at the noise outside. Becoming famous was not all that good. At least, there would be so noise.
Of course, with fa, the store would have more business. He had to put up with the noise. After all, they didn’t go there to see him.
“How was the store today?” Su Ping went into the pet room and asked Joanna who was cultivating in the nursing pen.
Joanna opened her eyes and darted him a glance. “Fully occupied.” Really? Su Ping did not expect that.
He went to get his notebook and saw the nurous nas. He checked the storing space as well and it was full to the brim.
Su Ping nodded and praised Joanna for a job well done. Then, he put the pets into different categories according to the prices of their training.
He had the dummy trainer take care of the pets for general training.
He picked out the pets left for professional training. There were only five of them and he could take them to the Demigod Burial in two trips.
Usually, a sixth-rank battle pet warrior could sign contracts with six battle pets at one ti.
Su Ping already had the Little Skeleton, the Dark Dragon Hound, and the other three. But he could still sign contracts with three more pets, because the upper limit for him was eight pets. That stemd from the fact that his spirit was particularly strong.
After all, he had died many deaths in the Chaotic Realm of the Undead. He had benefited greatly.
“Let’s go!”
Su Ping pulled up the list of the cultivation sites and directly chose the Demigod Burial.
He could afford the transportation fee with his current inco. With Joanna as the inside helper, he didn’t have to spend extra energy points to buy revival tis.
Joanna nodded and got out of the nursing pen.
She could go back to the Demigod Burial for each training. She was still happy even if she were running errands for Su Ping because she could also take care of sothing of her own in the process.
Soon, a night passed.
Su Ping had spent four to five days in the Demigod Burial. He took a nap before he went back for the last ti. Once he got back to the store, before dawn, he climbed into a nursing pen to cultivate. His ability would develop every ti he visited the Demigod Burial.
He cultivated in the nursing pen and forgot the passage of ti. By the ti he opened his eyes again, he saw that it was already ten in the morning.
He couldn’t continue cultivating. He left the nursing pen and used his spiritual energy to check the surroundings.
He could perceive the store and the exterior with no obstacles hindering him, but no one could check the inside of the store from the outside.
Soon, Su Ping found many people outside. It would be another busy day.
He got dressed and cleaned himself up.
He called Tang Ruyan out from the scroll to get ready for the custors.
Su Ping opened the door and saw a long line outside. The custors were chatting away and Su Ping heard words like “match” and “dragon”. As he pulled the door open, everyone stopped talking and looked at Su Ping with delight.
“Sorry for the wait.”
Su Ping stepped aside so that custors could enter the store and went back inside. The custors went in to follow Su Ping.
Despite the great number of custors, they did keep the order. No one tried to rush to the front.
Everyone knew what the store could provide. They had heard that Su Lingyue’s dragon ca from the store and that there was a titled battle pet warrior there.
No one could produce any proof but none of them questioned the authenticity of the information.
It would be strange for the store not to have a titled battle pet warrior in control, especially when the store could raise such a powerful dragon.
“Well?”
Su Ping was about to talk to the first custor when he noticed sothing at the back of the line.
He picked up soone familiar. It was the one who had lost to Su Lingyue the day before.
Qin Shaotian, from the Qin family.
