Chapter 467 The Zhong Family and... His Return

Only two more players remained standing on the stage after Zhong Lingtong left with Su Ping.

But the top trainers who had yet to choose a student didn’t ask the last two, either.

Quality before quantity. The two players had good potential, but they were subpar according to their standards.

The competition ended the moment the selecting session was completed.

Su Ping left the stadium along with the Vice Chairman and the other top trainers. They walked out from the corridor specially designated for them. Following the Vice Chairman was Yu Yundan, while Zhong Lingtong walked behind Su Ping.

Su Ping came on the Vice Chairman’s car so they went back together. Luckily, the Vice Chairman’s car was spacious enough to hold eight people.

Inside the vehicle

“Brother Su, are you planning on giving a lecture? I believe your name will be heard across the Holy Light Base City after today. I’m sure your lecture would be quite popular,” the Vice Chairman said with a smile.

Yu Yundan and Zhong Lingtong looked at Su Ping, eyes full of questions. The fact that Su Ping was from another base city made him a mysterious man.

“No, thanks. I’ve been away from home long enough. I need to go back to the Longjiang Base City.”

Su Ping shook his head. He had found his student; to prolong his stay would be pointless. “Why the hurry?” The Vice Chairman was surprised.

“I’ve been away for days. You should know that I run a store. I have to go back and take care of things,” Su Ping explained. Joanna was managing the store while he was away. However, she would not make as much money as when he was there. The best she could do was to break even.

“Well...”

The Vice Chairman literally didn’t know what to say. He knew about Su Ping’s business, of course, because Su Ping had mentioned it when he was having the medal designed. However, the Vice Chairman didn’t know that Su Ping would value the store that much.

Why would a top trainer take care of a store?

The Vice Chairman was unable to figure Su Ping out.

Zhong Lingtong and Yu Yundan were equally confused.

Speaking of going back home, Su Ping remembered Zhong Lingtong. “Do you want to go back with me? You can return home after you finish learning.”

Zhong Lingtong didn’t expect the question. She first darted an inquiring look to the Vice Chairman. Her hesitation didn’t last long before she made up her mind. “I’ll go wherever my teacher goes.”

Su Ping raised his eyebrows. Smart girl. The Vice Chairman felt sorry since Su Ping was leaving. The Holy Light Base City and the Longjiang Base City were far away from each other. If one were to consider Su Ping’s strength, making the trip over wouldn’t really be a problem. However, based on his understanding of Su Ping’s interests, the Vice Chairman believed that Su Ping would not return to the Holy Light Base City for anything after he went back home.

He would have to find an appealing enough reason to entice this guy into making the trip again. “Stay with your teacher and learn from him. He knows so much... He’s the most outstanding among all the top trainers,” the Vice Chairman said to Zhong Lingtong. He also liked that adorable and polite girl.

Zhong Lingtong and Yu Yundan were surprised after seeing that the Vice Chairman thought that highly of Su Ping.

Outstanding even among all the top trainers?

That would make Su Ping the best of the best.

Zhong Lingtong felt her heart was racing again. Excited and shy, she darted another look at Su Ping. All of sudden, she realized that she had gone back home with the biggest prize. Not only was her teacher outstanding, he was also handsome!

“Yes, I’ll make sure of that.” Zhong Lingtong nodded happily.

“I will have to test you next time, when you return. I’ll have you and Yu Yundan compete. Make sure you don’t lag behind.” The Vice Chairman smiled a friendly smile.

Su Ping came from a mysterious background and the Vice Chairman could not decipher him, but he could start with Su Ping’s student. It would be quite beneficial if the girl could join the headquarters of the Trainers Association as a master trainer in the future.

The two girls smiled at each other happily, but inside, they were committing the Vice Chairman’s words to memory.

The time that they met again would be the time for them to compete!

The next day.

Su Ping went to the Zhong family with Zhong Lingtong

The Zhong family was a medium-level family in the Holy Light Base City. In regards to its wealth and resources, the Zhong family could rank among the Top 10.

Su Ping taking Zhong Lingtong as his student was seen on the stage when everyone was paying attention.

Su Ping’s picture was published in several media outlets the day before. His name had become a household word in the Holy Light Base City, in just one day.

The very fact that he was a new top trainer was enough to stir up people’s interest.

After all, unlike master trainers, not every year could they witness the birth of a new top trainer. Of all the years in function, the number of top trainers at the headquarters of the Trainers Association had been kept at around a dozen.

For the Zhong family, Su Ping taking Zhong Lingtong as his student was a cause for great joy.

It was very likely that Zhong Lingtong could become a master trainer since she was going to study under a top trainer!

As for becoming a top trainer... that would be up to her fate. No one could make any promises on that front.

Either way, this was a good thing for the Zhong family.

The day prior, an elder of the Zhong family had seen Su Ping in person to extend him an invitation for a banquet in his honor. Su Ping didn’t turn it down. He also had to let them know that he would be leaving with Zhong Lingtong.

As entered the Zhong family estate with Zhong Lingtong, Su Ping had another chance to witness what wealthy families of the Holy Light Base City were like. The red carpet was laid on streets that were further away from the Zhong family property. Luxury cars were parked on both sides of the street. Many Zhong family members were waiting outside and the family head was outside in person to wait for Su Ping. They had done everything they could to show their respect.

Su Ping could feel the honor that came with the top trainer title.

Even titled battle pet warriors would talk to him politely. After all, top trainers would often be buttered up. If titled battle pet warriors turned to master trainers to take care of their battle pets, for one thing, it would take a long time; for another, the effect would not be as good. Only top trainers could easily train ninth-rank beasts.

While at the banquet, Su Ping sat with the family head and both talked happily.

The family head didn’t assume any airs; he agreed without any hesitation upon learning that Zhong Lingtong was leaving for the Longjiang Base City. He even prepared them flying pets and assigned an elder to be their guiding rider to take them back to the Longjiang Base City.

Su Ping was overwhelmed by the courtesy. He promised that he would teach Zhong Lingtong well.

Before they left, the generous Zhong family gave Su Ping many “small gifts,” like rare materials, most of which were for pets, some herbs that were to increase a person’s astral powers, and many other things that a trainer would desire. After all, a trainer had little time to cultivate astral powers, and yet, trainers did need astral powers to train pets. As such, those kinds of herbs were favored by trainers.

Battle pet warriors would want those kinds of herbs as well, but they weren’t in such a dire need of them. After all, the astral powers accumulated with herbs would not be as solid as the ones achieved through cultivation. Taking those herbs was not a good choice for battle pet warriors with great ambitions.

Su Ping graciously accepted the gifts. The herbs could do him good. As for the fact that astral powers could be less solid, he could improve that by going through the Heaven’s Test in the cultivation site.

After having bid farewell to the Zhong family, Su Ping left the Holy Light Base City with Zhong Lingtong that same day.

Some people in the Holy Light Base City were relieved to see him leave. They were unhappy, but at the same time there was nothing they could do.

Xiao Fengxu had been killed by Su Ping and the Xiao family found out. However, after doing some research about Su Ping, they became afraid instead of enraged.

It was said that the one who killed Xiao Fengxu was a top trainer and also a titled battle pet warrior at the peak, someone who could cripple a beast at the peak of the ninth-rank with one punch!

The man had a mysterious origin!

Apart from swallowing down the humiliation, there was nothing the Xiao family could do.

They had to pretend that nothing had happened. They could always have another young master, but sacrificing the entire family was something they would definitely not do. The stakeholders of their family enterprises and even family members would disagree. Leaving the matter unsettled was the way to go.
