Chapter 443 What??

“Watch out…”

The two girls ran over from the distance. Hardly had their voices faded away when they saw the Carrion Dark Dragon getting down on its knees. The two girls stood in bewilderment. What… is going on?

Neither of the girls could understand.

Why would the Carrion Dark Dragon that was just losing control a moment before get down on its knees? While he stared at the shivering dragon, Su Ping gradually stopped the surge of killing intent and restored his calm demeanor.

“Put it away now!”

The brunette was the first to come back to her senses. She shouted at once. Since the huge Carrion Dark Dragon was in the way, the girls couldn’t see what Su Ping had done. Either way, since the Carrion Dark Dragon was on its knees, this was the perfect chance for them.

The girl in the white dress hurried to dig out a red flag from her bear-shaped bag. She poured astral powers into the red flag and waved it at the Carrion Dark Dragon.

Whoosh!

As she waved the flag, a huge, red mouth appeared. There were only lips, not teeth. The mouth opened up to more than ten meters wide and swallowed the shivering Carrion Dark Dragon.

The shivering Carrion Dark Dragon didn’t struggle. Instead, it seemed that the beast was relieved.

“Huh?”

Su Ping looked at the flag with immense interest. The flag was evidently a unique artifact that could store things in another dimension.

As the Carrion Dark Dragon disappeared, the two girls turned to Su Ping at once. Both of them heaved a sigh of relief to see Su Ping safe and sound. The girl in the white dress patted her not-prominent chest to calm herself down from the shock.

The brunette had a very curvy and well-developed figure. As her nervousness vanished, anger occupied her mind. She stepped forward. “Who are you? How did you get in here? Do you have any idea how dangerous it was a moment ago? Lucky for you, that beast was affected by something. Otherwise, you would be a goner by now!” “Eh…” Su Ping was speechless. “Why are you yelling at me?”

The brunette: “Huh?”

“I saw that the door was open so I thought I could come in here and take a look. Are you performing a test? Who is the examiner?” Su Ping explained casually. He sized up the two girls curiously. Both of them seemed to be too young to be examiners. “The door was open?”

The girl in the white dress felt embarrassed.

The brunette darted a glance at the door behind Su Ping and then glared at the girl in the white dress. “Who are you? Are you here for the test? This is where seventh-rank trainers take their tests,” the brunette asked Su Ping.

She was doubtful.

Su Ping seemed to be too young to be a seventh-rank trainer.

“So, are you the examiner?” Su Ping asked. The brunette said grumpily, “Of course not. Anyone who wants to take the seventh-rank test will have to book the examiners in advance. The examiners are all master trainers and they do not have time to stay here all day long. You don’t know this? Then, why are you here?”

The girl in the white dress yanked the brunette’s clothes. “Hey, were you hurt?” the former asked Su Ping.

Her voice was sweet and soft. What a cute girl.

“Nope.”

Su Ping soon realized that they weren’t examiners. “Are you here practicing?”

“Why else?” the brunette snapped back.

Fine. Whatever.

Su Ping shook his head. He turned around, ready to leave.

“Wait,” the brunette shouted.

Su Ping kept going “Hey, I said wait.”

“If I waited just because you told me to, that wouldn’t look good on me.”

IIII

The brunette’s mind was in a mess. Su Ping did stop. The girl took a deep breath to swallow back all the “beautiful” words she was about to blurt out. “What did you do? Why did the Carrion Dark Dragon kneel before you? Did you use some taming skills?”

The girl in the white dressed also cast a glance at Su Ping with curiosity.

“No.”

Su Ping was not interested in that question. He turned around again.

I thought you were asking me for my phone number… Bah!

The two girls stood in a daze for a while. The girl in the white dress hesitated for a moment before she discarded her theory. “I don’t think it’s a taming skill. Not even the eighth-rank taming skill could have tamed a Carrion Dark Dragon that was losing control. Do you think… the Carrion Dark Dragon was sick?”

“Yeah, possibly.”

The brunette felt that such a theory was reasonable.

“Probably some ache in the belly.”

“True. Anyway, is that Carrion Dark Dragon a male or a female?”

“I don’t know. But I don’t think I’ve seen that thing…”

“So, a girl? No wonder…”

Su Ping went out of the gate and took a look at the other paths. There was no noise. No one else was taking tests there.

He shook his head. Su Ping left the building.

Nothing was interesting in the test center. He went back to the corridor where he met a group of young people.

“It’s you!”

The young man leading the group inwardly moaned his bad luck when he saw Su Ping. It was unavoidable to run into your enemies. “Hey, man, I’m very sorry about what happened before. I was being too gossipy. You wouldn’t mind, would you?” The young man was Lin Feng. He and his friends were there for the test. It never occurred to him that he would run into Su Ping again.

“Who are you?”

Su Ping stared at him in confusion.

“Well…”

Lin Feng felt his face was surely looking quite colorless at the moment. He inwardly sobbed for his fate. It turned out that Su Ping had never paid attention to him and had already forgotten about everything.

Well, that would do. It saved him trouble.

“Anyway, I’m sorry to have disturbed you.” Lin Feng smiled apologetically.

He was no longer in the mood to keep an appearance in front of his friends and his apology came out naturally. He wasn’t stupid. Su Ping was holding a master trainer medal. He must have obtained it legitimately. Lin Feng knew better than to create more troubles for himself. He would suffer if Su Ping was just playing dumb before.

In that day and age, all the big potatoes liked playing dumb. But the actual “dumb” people like himself were living an honestly hard life!

Su Ping kept his gaze on Lin Feng for a bit more. “Ah, I remember you. Were you the one I met by the gate?” “Eh…” Lin Feng didn’t know what to say.

Pah, pah, pah!

He wished he could slap himself on the face right then.

“You were the one digging through the dumpster looking for food, right?” Su Ping sounded serious.

Lin Feng was about to explain when he suddenly understood something. With a blushed face, he smiled fawningly. “That was me.”

“Good for you.” Su Ping patted Lin Feng’s shoulder and walked away.

Lin Feng tried to weep but failed to shed a tear. He exhaled in relief after Su Ping left. He turned around, only to see his friends looking at him as if he were an idiot and they were trying hard not to laugh. Just laugh. Stop covering up your mouths and squeezing your eyes! “He did it on purpose!” Lin Feng said to himself. He was sure that Su Ping knew who he was. Su Ping must have said those words on purpose to get back at him.

What a mean dude!

Lin Feng shook his head and said to his friends. “Go and line up for your tests. Yingying and I will go take the test for the sixth rank. After our tests, while it is still bright outside, let’s go find a nice hotel. I just asked someone. There’s a master trainer’s conference tomorrow, the one we heard from the guard at the gate. I heard that there would be open classes at this conference and the second half of the conference will be open to the public. Let’s come back earlier tomorrow so we can grab good seats.” The others giggled for a bit but then put on serious looks.

“Good luck to all!”

“Let’s go!”

They encouraged each other and went their separate ways.

Su Ping walked around the other places after he left the test center. The headquarters was a huge place. Apart from the test center, Su Ping saw a place where the wild beasts were being kept in pens. It was like an independent park protected with high walls and titled battle pet warriors guarding the perimeter. There was a library with a thorough collection of books, including the most updated and comprehensive illustrated books of astral pets.

Thanks to Shi Haochi’s master trainer medal, Su Ping was able to go around unhindered.

He had to admit that it was a massive place. Su Ping walked fast and he wandered around for two hours, but still, there were many places he had yet to visit. And he… he got lost.

He asked some guards and finally found his way back to the villa that Shi Haochi had taken him to.

It was already past five in the afternoon.

“You didn’t go out?” Shi Haochi just happened to come downstairs. He hurried to Su Ping.

Su Ping did a stretch and replied, “I got tired from walking around.”

Then he asked, “Are you getting off work?”

“Yes, I am leaving.”

“But it’s not five-thirty yet.”

“…I get off work at five.”

“Does that count as clocking out early?”

Why would that matter?

What’s it to you!

Shi Haochi was speechless. He changed the subject awkwardly. “Let’s go home.”

“Okay.”

Su Ping got up.

They met many people along the way. They all bid Shi Haochi goodbye and at the same time cast curious looks at Su Ping who was walking side by side with Shi Haohi.

The young man is walking shoulder to shoulder with a master trainer?

There must be something about the young man if he weren’t a fool.

They committed Su Ping’s look to their memories.

“Mission alert: 5

/100 completed!

“Deadline: five days and eight hours.”

The system’s alert blared in Su Ping’s mind, catching him off guard. Su Ping was freaked out. “Don’t make sounds without warning. Anyway, I almost forgot that I have a system,” Su Ping complained.

The system: “…”

Su Ping browsed through his process. He had done nothing and yet he had already accumulated five points. Was it because he was following Shi Haochi around?

That is to say, in this mission, I have to establish my reputation, right? Su Ping thought to himself.

At the same time, they had reached the roadside where many luxury cars were parked.

There was a strong man who stood by the car. The driver hurried over and greeted Shi Haochi with respect. The driver was curious about Su Ping but he didn’t ask any questions. He went to open the door for Shi Haochi. They drove away and arrived at Shi Haochi’s home in less than half an hour.

“Here we are.”

It was a manor. There were high walls surrounding it and traffic control was in place on the streets. With little traffic outside, it made for a nice and quiet place.

This was a manor in the Holy Light District!

This was a manor in the Holy Light District! Important things deserved to be repeated. Feel free to repeat it a few more times.

The luxury car drove into the yard and parked in the garage. Some maids were in the process of collecting the clean laundry. What a comfortable living environment. Shi Haochi showed Su Ping into the house. The door seemed to be made of some rare and unique wood.

“Dad is back.”

There was someone in the living room.

Then Su Ping heard slippers. A girl wearing leisurewear came over from the living room and saw Su Ping and Shi Haochi who were changing their shoes by the foyer.

“It’s you!!”

The girl opened her eyes wide.

Su Ping looked up, equally surprised. The girl was the brunette that he had met as she practiced for the seventh-rank test.

“Who’s there?” another soft voice asked curiously. Someone else walked over and she was dragging her feet on the ground. It was the girl in the white dress.
