Chapter 302: Master’s Favorite
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The disciples dispersed one by one. The ones who did know what was going on stood in the periphery dazedly. Why was the square suddenly blocked and why was it suddenly opened?
These clueless disciples asked what was going on, but all they got in response was that the two seniors were in a dispute.
?
Many people did not believe it, but after repeated questioning and receiving no answer, they stopped pursuing it and treated it as normal.
On another end, Su Bai followed Qin Miao into a living room.
Sitting on a sofa in the living room while drinking tea was a woman in a traditional Han Chinese dress, who looked to be in her twenties. This was Zhang Lu, a legendary Pet Tar and the gym’s predecessor.
Zhang Lu was already a Pet Tar when the aura had just been revived on a grand scale a hundred years ago. She had lived for more than ten decades, but she still looked like a young maiden.
There was a small, tabby cat with a round head and amber eyes beside her, but when Su Bai and the others t its eyes, they all felt that it could see through them.
He looked at this pet and knew that this seemingly docile little cutie was actually an ultimate existence on the evolutionary road, an immortal monster.
“Master!” “Grandmaster!”
The four people greeted the woman in unison. Zhang Lu joined the gymnasium when it had just been established, so except for Qin Miao, everyone else in the room had to address her as grandmaster.
“Please take your seats. Xiao Miao, pour tea for everyone,” Grandmaster Zhang Lu glanced at the four people, pointed to the bench, and said.
While drinking tea, she stroked the tabby cat in her hand. All four of them did not decline her invitation and sat down on the bench.
Qin Miao poured tea for everyone one by one, but no one drank their tea, seemingly not daring to do so.
“Zi Tianhe, it seems that your son isn’t as powerful as you said, even though he has a summoner divine skill that you gave to him.” After taking a sip of tea, Grandmaster Zhang Lu said this slowly.
Her words were like thunder to the others, who did not even know that Zi Wuji had a summoner divine skill.
Especially Su Bai, he did not expect that the other was hiding too deeply and also had a divine skill.
Zi Tianhe nodded and said, “His performance wasn’t as I expected, but this incident wasn’t his doing. I had it investigated, and this matter turns out to be related to the Giant Kraken Gymnasium. I don’t know the reason behind it, but Su Bai has probably offended them.”
“That gym, really?”
Su Bai frowned slightly. He had always thought that Zi Wuji had been behind this, but now that Zi Tianhe was saying they had not been the masterminds and it was actually related to the Giant Kraken Gymnasium, he was a little unconvinced.
“Of course, I don’t have to deceive people about this matter.”
The curator glanced at him, wondering if the latter did not even have this basic trust in him?
Hearing this, Su Bai’s face sank slightly. He did not expect that that gymnasium would actually do sothing so despicable just to make him leave Yulong Gymnasium.
Indeed, if he did not get elected, it was true that Zi Wuji would benefit the most, but in fact, after thinking about it carefully, the Giant Kraken Gymnasium would make the most profit.
First, his trust in Yulong Gymnasium would be destroyed as a result of this, so he would never let them have the krakens’ nest. Second, they would have a chance to win him over and let him switch to the Giant Kraken Gymnasium.
Although they had no intentions of targeting him, Su Bai still hated this kind of behavior.
If they could do such despicable things to make him leave Yulong Gymnasium now, in the future, they would certainly be capable of doing more extre things for their greater benefit.
“Zi Wuji is indeed not mature enough. I’ll let him directly withdraw from the selection. It’s more appropriate for Su Bai to take over as the curator.” Zi Tianhe spoke slowly after a long bout of silence.
“No need to do that. The selection will continue as per normal. Sucha rash ending would only give other people the wrong impression. Anyways, the curator position can only be obtained by a competent person, and it will not change because of other things.”
Zhang Lu shook her head.
“I understand.” Zi Tianhe nodded.
“The other thing is that I don’t want to see your acts of favoritism in public again. No one will say anything about you if you do it in private. We all are humans, so it’s pardonable, but as the curator, your favoritism has beco more and more serious, especially after Su Bai ca. This is unbecoming of a curator,” she added, causing the atmosphere to beco tense.
“I’ll reflect on this.” Zi Tianhe nodded, his face sullen.
“Although you redied the matter in ti, it also brought about great danger. The void oath is not omnipotent and greatly increases the danger to Su Bai’s life. It can’t be resolved with a single apology. I rember that you have a shard of the divine skill exchanged with a piece of space and the fang of the void ancestor dragon. Take them out to save his life,” she said.
He did not resist this order. Taking out a gray dragon tooth and a skill card, he placed both on the table.
“By the way, you three should sign a void oath, too,” Zhang Lu said.
The three completed the void oath one after another.
After the oath of the dragon was issued, Zhang Lu let Zi Tianhe and Bai Chen exit the room, leaving only Su Bai and Qin Miao inside.
“You can accept these two things; they’re good for you. When the fang of the void ancestor dragon is activated, you can turn into nothingness and beco immune to attacks for one minute.
“Although the space swap divine skill is only one-fifth of the original and its power isn’t as great, it can help you swap places within short and dium distances. With the fang of the void ancestor dragon, the life-saving effect should be very effective.” Zhang Lu pointed to the two things on the table and told Su Bai this.
“Thank you, grandmaster.” He grinned happily and quickly accepted the two things.
These were all really good materials for him, and if it were not for her help, he would not have obtained them at all.
Especially the swapping of locations, if this divine skill were in a complete state, he could directly exchange positions with the marked item regardless of distance.
Although it was only one-fifth now, the effect was still very powerful, and it was an absolute life-saving skill.
He had been longing for this ever since he heard about it, but he did not expect to obtain it under such circumstances.
“Grandmaster, I have so Nihility Koi here. I think that your little cat will like it very much.”
Su Bai thought about it for a while and took out ten thousand Nihility Koi. Anyway, he had several million of this thing and it was not a loss to win the goodwill of this grandmaster.
If she had not supported him, he would have been unable to lay a finger on Zi Tianhe.
“ow~”
Seeing the Nihility Koi, the quiet tabby cat beside Zhang Lu stirred and stared intensely at the Nihility Koi.
“I’ll accept your gift, then; it’s pretty thoughtful. How did you catch so many?”
A hint of surprise flashed across Zhang Lu’s beautiful face. She knew about this type of koi, but it took a lot of effort to catch even one.
“There’s a simple way. Next ti you fish for Nihility Koi, sprinkle the powder made from the material on this list and it won’t run away.”
Seeing Zhang Lu’s expression, Su Bai felt amused. This flattery was done right, for the grandmaster really treasured her cat.
After all, who could refuse such a cute cat?
Zhang Lu had just accepted the handwritten material list written from him when the tabby cat grabbed it and looked.
“Okay. Now, let see your contract book. I want to check if it’s really a token from the rmaid, Recorder of All Things.”
A smile appeared across Zhang Lu’s face, and she spoke a lot more gently and nicely. Obviously, she was satisfied with him.
Nodding, he released his contract book.
The woman looked at it, nodded, and said, “You can put it away now. There should be no problem. This is indeed the statue of the rmaid, Recorder of All Things, but how did you get it?”
“On a broken planet in the Abyss Star Territory...”
Su Bai briefly went through what had happened that day, but of course he did not ntion the Demon Crystal.
“You noticed a semi-circular planet from so far away? Is this called fate or is it that these tokens can only be obtained by certain people?” Zhang Lu wondered aloud.
Su Bai indeed found it strange now in retrospect, for he saw that weird planet as soon as he entered the abyss. anwhile, no one else seed to have felt anything.
However, he was not related to the rmaid, Recorder of All Things, at all.
Was it related to the pet interface?
This was the only thing he could think of. After all, the ability of the system was, in so respects, a reduced version of the Book of Everything.
“This is for you; it’s a space token. Drop blood on it and it can be triggered passively. If you encounter a fatal danger, it’ll automatically trigger to form a high-energy shield. In the next minute, soone will co to rescue you through the spatial channel.
“As for this, use it on your contract book. You can hide the rmaid statue and it’ll look like an ordinary contract book.”
Zhang Lu took out a silver tal ball and white crystal.
The silver tal ball was three centiters wide, with a round face and a fat chicken pattern on it, which looked a little bashful.
The white crystal was the size of a palm, and there was a special law attached to it.
“Thank you, grandmaster.” Su Bai accepted both and quickly thanked the woman before him.
This was how good fortune and misfortune depended on each other. Although he had exposed the token of the Recorder of All Things, his harvest was also pretty bountiful and he had even received the protection of the elders.
Su Bai took a look at these two things and used them on the spot after making sure that there was no problem with them.
After dripping blood on it, the silver tal ball turned into a stream, which beca a round-faced fat chicken pattern on his wrist.
“What is this pattern?” He felt very curious.
“That’s the normal form of the legendary void monster, the Devil Devouring Giant Chicken.” The person who answered was Qin Miao.
“Devil Devouring Giant Chicken?” Su Bai groaned.
“No need to ask further; it’s the founder of the gym,” she explained.
“Oh!”
Although he nodded, he felt even more puzzled.
“Go to the bottom of the abyss with us later on to enter the Hidden Realm; see if you can feel it.
Regarding the rmaid token, you should keep it a secret for the ti being. Don’t disclose it. The Alliance is not monolithic, and there are so traitors inside. You must be careful.
“Also, don’t pay too much attention to the curator position. Your talent is more suitable for improving your own strength. It doesn’t matter whether you can be the curator or not. Anyway, as long as your strength improves, the curator has to listen to you,” said Zhang Lu slowly.
“I understand.” Su Bai nodded. He did not expect to get the opportunity to visit the Hidden Realm in advance.
“Be more careful, especially of the Westerners,” Zhang Lu exhorted and then she waved her hand. “Okay, you and Xiao Miao can both go out and prepare. We’ll leave for the bottom of the Heavenly Abyss and see the situation there in a mont.”
He nodded and left the living room with Qin Miao.
She sighed once they were outside. “It seems that the rumor is true.”
“What rumors?” he asked curiously.
“It’s said that Curator Zi Tianhe and his wife bumped into an opportunity while out traveling, and his wife died then. Later, he focused on Zi Wuji; I didn’t expect that what he had obtained was a divine skill. In the end, he gave it to his son.
“If he used it himself, with his talent, he could definitely reach the level of a legendary Pet Tar and would not be stuck at the heavenly-king level.
Qin Miao sighed and said, “If it weren’t for Zi Wuji, he wouldn’t be like this.”
Su Bai was silent for a while and slowly shook his head. “This isn’t an excuse for him to play favorites and oppress . Everyone has difficulties and sorrows, but this can’t be an excuse for bullying others.”
He still disliked Zi Tianhe, even though he was hurt by love. He looked down on him for bullying a junior and being dishonest.
“I just told you about that; it’s not an excuse for him.” She smiled. “Don’t get wrong.”
“I understand.” He nodded.
“Okay, I’ll go first. You can handle your own affairs; I’ll call you in a while to go to the bottom of Sea Abyss and see the situation there.
“As for Gao Sheng, don’t worry. The gym will help clear your na,” she said.
“Okay, I understand.” Su Bai exhaled and nodded.
“Howl~” Humans are so troubleso!
Sitting on his shoulder, the elf leaned against his head and exclaid.
“Yeah, human beings are very troubleso, that is, foreign enemies nowadays are all fighting and scheming against one another. If not for the people I care about, I really would want to wander into the void imdiately and leave society.” He sighed.
“Hing~” Don’t worry. We will definitely be with you forever, the fox raised its head and wled.
“Roar~” We’ll always be with you. After all, we live longer than you. Little Tyrant chid in crassly.
Su Bai: “...”
They soon reached the office building, and He Yu stood up to ask, “Senior brother, are you all right?”
“Yes, it’s over now. Everything will be fine.” Su Bai nodded.
“Okay, we understand.” He Yu and the others nodded. They knew that there were many secrets that could not be revealed to them and tacitly refrained from asking.
“Oh, by the way, Senior Sister Ruoxue from Fuyao Gymnasium is here; I brought her to your residence.”
Han Wei raised her head and said.
“Thank you. I’ll go there first and co back in a while.”
Hearing this, Su Bai’s face was overjoyed.
After speaking, he turned around and left the office and walked quickly to his residence.
“Having a girlfriend is such a blessing. The two big beauty seniors here are so cold.”
When he saw Su Bai’s look, Ouyang Du spoke with much emotion.
“Of course, do you think that he’s a player just like you?” He Yu snorted coldly.
“No, I just have a few more girlfriends. It’s not like I’m cheating on them at the sa ti.” He defended himself.
No one in the office cared to listen for his explanation, though.
On the other end, Su Bai had already arrived at his residence.
