Lu Qiu rolled his eyes at Su Ping.

Since Su Ping wasn’t listening to reason, Lu Qiu thought proper to caution the Chairman, “Sir, Mr. Su is still very young. Don’t be mad at him if he offends you in any way.”

The old man smiled. “Oh, don’t worry about this. I have heard about Mr. Su’s exploits. A talent like Mr. Su is bound to see and display uncommon things. Talents are different from the general public...”

Lu Qiu produced a forced smile.

Su Ping is certainly different. He’s insane!

Su Ping asked, “Chairman, how should I address you?”

“Call me Elder Zu.” He smiled.

“Really? Zu kind of sounds like zoo.” Su Ping blinked.

The people present could not believe what they had just heard. Su Ping was bold enough to joke about the Chairman!

Lu Qiu was frightened. “Mr. Su!”

“Ha, ha...”

But Elder Zu laughed. “Brother Su, I see that you’re indeed different. You stray from the norm and I like it. My surname is Zu and they always call me like that. But I think you’re right. Ha, ha...”

“Elder Zu, the Deep Caves are in trouble and so is the world. The Holy Light Base City is not necessarily a safe place. I heard from Brother Lu that you’re on the verge of becoming a Holy Spirit Trainer. How about you go to my place? There’s a location that is perfectly safe. I promise that you’ll be safe and sound.”

Su Ping extended his invitation.

He had determined through that brief exchange that the elder was a good man, worthy of his help.

After all, it would be a shame for a Holy Spirit Trainer-to-be to die there.

“Mr. Su!” Lu Qiu was losing patience.

He had just told Su Ping to avoid the crazy talk!

And there he was, at it again! In the entire world, other than in the Tower, no other place was safer than the Holy Light Base City!

as a sa

Besides, that was a sacred base city for all trainers and Su Ping was actually asking the leader of such a lofty place to relocate. What a ridiculous joke!

Elder Zu was surprised. It surprised him even more since he was able to see the sincerity conveyed by Su Ping. The elder asked, “Mr. Su, I heard that you’re not only a top trainer, but an outstanding battle pet warrior. You can kill legendary battle pet warriors while you are only at the titled rank. You were even able to break into the Tower and leave safely. Mr. Su, I wonder... Who is your teacher?”

The others were stunned into silence. Lu Qiu and the other top trainers opened their eyes wide in astonishment.

Killing legendary battle pet warriors?! Breaking into the Tower?!

Is that all a joke? Because it didn’t sound real!

“Elder Zu, you’ve looked up my background, right?” Su Ping raised his eyebrows. It seemed that Elder Zu had collected enough information, or else he wouldn’t have known those details.

No wonder he was so respectful.

“Whoever my teacher is has nothing to do with what I did. I killed legendary battle pet warriors because they offended me or they deserved death. As for the Tower... You know that I’m not in good terms with them and I’m not trying to hide that fact. But I’m asking you to go with me, and it’s not because I want to anger the Tower!

“The fact remains that if the Tower can send more legendary battle pet warriors to keep the Holy Light Base City safe, I would be more than happy to see that!”

Su Ping admitted that he did those things. Lu Qiu and the others gazed at him in astonishment. They suddenly realized that they hadn’t known Su Ping well enough.

A top trainer who was also a Fate Challenger?

Really?!

Elder Zu nodded at Su Ping. “You are right. Thank you Mr. Su, I trust you. But I have to say that I am the Chairman of the Trainers Association and for me, the Holy Light Base City is not just my hometown. This is a place that I have spent my entire life to protect.

“If something were to go wrong, I would be more than happy to stand with the Holy Light Base City till the last moment.

“Of course, it would be for the best if nothing happened,” He added with a smile.

“... If you say so.”

Since the elder insisted on staying, Su Ping decided to give up on the lobbying. It was understandable. If it were him and people told him to leave the Longjiang Base City to stay alive, he would... leave, of course!

So, at the end of the day, he didn’t understand.

Su Ping shook his head. If it were him, he would save his life first and then go back to his hometown to rebuild it; that was what he would do. Why stay until his life was in danger? Although he could not understand, he respected Elder Zu’s choice.

It was rare for people to act according to their beliefs; those who did had to be respected.

“Mr. Su, are you here to help us?” Elder Zu asked with a smile.

Su Ping nodded. “I was in the Longyang Base City for some business and heard about you, so I came over to help. But the problem has already been dealt with. The beast kings were killed and the remaining wild beasts won’t inflict any great harm.” “We have heard about this from Lu Qiu. They’re collecting more details as we speak.”

Elder Zu gazed at Su Ping. “Mr. Su, I heard that you killed the beast kings. I want to thank you on behalf of everyone in the Holy Light Base City!”

Elder Zu placed his feet together, crossed his right arm in front of his chest and bowed.

That startled Lu Qiu and the other trainers.

Only senior legendary battle pet warriors would be worthy of Elder Zu’s bow!

Even some legendary warriors of the Ocean State would have to treat Elder Zu with respect, especially since he was about to become a Holy Spirit Trainer; they would have to count on him to train their battle pets.

“Sir, don’t do this.”

“Sir, please.”

The top trainers wished they could forcefully make Elder Su rise, but they were afraid to intervene.

Su Ping didn’t expect such a grand gesture, either. He released some astral powers to help Elder Zu up and said, “Sir, you flatter me. It wasn’t a big deal. After all, I’m not doing this for free. See, Brother Lu just got me three scrolls. They are more than enough as thanks and compensation to me.”

Elder Zu stood up and glared at Lu Qiu who was still trying to help Elder Zu up but was hesitating

“Don’t mention it, Mr. Su. Are you planning to use those materials for your student?” Elder Zu asked.

Su Ping forced a smile. “Sir, I see that you know everything about me. Yes, I requested those materials for my student, as I don’t have the time to teach her. She will have to learn by herself.”

Elder Zu drew a long face and said to Lu Qiu, “Lu, the Holy Light Base City owes Mr. Su. He saved our base city. Is this how you thank him? From today on, whatever Mr. Su asks for, as long as we have it, he can have it!” Lu Qiu was dumbstruck.

So was everyone else.

Su Ping could get whatever he wanted?

The matter of the beast kings had yet to be confirmed!

Su Ping made those claims without showing proof. Why is the Chairman buying that?

“Sir, sir, we haven’t reached a conclusion about that. Mr. Su is here to help. But, but...” Lu Qiu wanted to explain but was unable to find the right words.

Elder Zu scolded him, “Go and ask Clairvoyance who Mr. Su is! He killed a legendary battle pet warrior in public at the Supremacy League and left the Tower safely after killing two legendary battle pet warriors. The Tower is not even thinking about holding him accountable. Why is it surprising that Mr. Su can kill beast kings? Why would a man of such caliber lie?”

Lu Qiu and the others were speechless. So, it was real.

They gazed at Su Ping, perplexed.

Of course, it was unlikely that their Chairman would lie. But it was hard to believe.

Su Ping looked at the shocked crowd. “Mr. Chairman, thank you for your kindness. Now that you kindly offered, I want dozens of scrolls related to master trainer materials and also top trainer materials. Get me everything you have and I will give them back to you when I’m done.”

As the others had finally come back to their senses, they were once again shocked by Su Ping’s greed.

He was going to empty their library!

“Brother Su, Su...” Lu Qiu was stuttering. Elder Zu was confused. “Mr. Su, I don’t think your student can finish them all.”

“She has time.”

Lu Qiu jumped in, “You can come back and get more after she’s finished reading one or two.”

Su Ping answered, “But I’m afraid all the books will soon be gone.”

“Why would that happen? We keep them safe...” Lu Qiu said.

Su Ping shook his head. “I said it before and I’ll say it again. The situation is complicated. I averted today’s strike, but no one can say for sure if the beasts would no longer return. The Tower can’t send more legendary battle pet warriors. Do you honestly think you can protect the base city?”

Lu Qiu moved his lips but failed to talk.

Elder Zu asked, “Mr. Su, do you know something?”

Su Ping nodded. “You can wait for the Tower to tell you the details because I’m not at liberty to say, in case confidential information is leaked and the general public falls in a state of panic. In a nutshell, it’s dangerous out there; the Holy Light Base City could vanish quickly if something were to go wrong. If you want to survive, go to the Longjiang Base City. I will try my best to keep that place safe.”

Elder Zu fell into silence.

His reaction told the others that he trusted Su Ping. So, was it true that the situation was so grave that not even the Tower could handle it?

“I understand. Thank you, Mr. Su, for telling us.” Elder Zu came back to his senses.

“Don’t mention it. You can go to my place whenever you want,” Su Ping said, “I’m in a hurry. About the studying materials...”

“Lu, take Mr. Su and get them,” Elder Zu said to Lu Qiu, “Mr. Su can choose anything he likes. Do you understand?”

Lu Qiu nodded.

“Brother Shi, pay me a visit some time, and take your daughters along,” Su Ping said to a middle-aged man.

That middle-aged man was Shi Haochi. He knew that Su Ping had gone there to find him, but the joy of reunion had turned into complex emotions after hearing that conversation.

“I will,” Shi Haochi said. He had made a decision.

He and Lu Qiu were different. Shi Haochi’s wife had passed away prematurely and he worried about his two daughters. As long as the two girls were safe, he was even okay with giving up his medal as a master trainer.

Su Ping left the crowd and went to the library with Lu Qiu. Su Ping went into the library and took everything he could find.

He left behind the artifacts and armors for battle pets. What if the Holy Light Base City was attacked again? The Trainers Association would have to equip the battle pet warriors in the base city.

“Let’s go.”

Lu Qiu was relieved to see that Su Ping had paid no heed to the precious artifacts; still, the young man’s actions were even more confusing

“Are you leaving right away?” Lu Qiu asked. “The Chairman likes you. If you want to ask for some guidance, I’m sure that the Chairman would be happy to talk with you.”

Su Ping was speechless. “Brother Lu, it’s pointless to become a Holy Spirit Trainer at this time. The beasts are coming. What good would it do to become a Holy Spirit Trainer right away?

“Even a Holy Spirit Trainer needs time to train a beast king. There wouldn’t be a chance to perform wonders. It wouldn’t be a quick solution.

“The wild beasts are not going to give you any time to train.’

Lu Qiu was startled. “Is it really that bad?”

“More or less.”

Su Ping patted his shoulder but said nothing else as he made to leave.

Lu Qiu went after Su Ping at once.

They left the Association and were on their way to the outer wall.

They were about to reach the outer wall when all of a sudden, the outer wall began to shake. Following that, a crack appeared on the outer wall!

From under the cracked outer wall reached out dark and twisted tentacles, each being thick and hundreds of meters long.

The outer wall had been built by pets of the stone family and it was both sturdy and flexible. Not even a missile could have destroyed it... But the beast had done just that!

Roar!!

The sonorous roar echoed throughout. Many battle pet warriors standing near the crack were caught off guard and turned into dust.

“Incoming!”

Lu Qiu narrowed his eyes. The device was beeping. A blue glow was seen through the fabric of his pocket. That was the wild beast detector.

Su Ping frowned. A fish had escaped from the net, and a big one at that!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

At that moment, a number of people flew up to the outer wall. Dozens of hundreds of swirls then appeared close to those people; fierce battle pets rushed out from the swirls. Some of the battle pets had wings; some were like strange mantises, and others were dancing around like ghosts. Those battle pets charged to attack those tentacles.

Still, those ninth-rank battle pets looked petite when compared to those tentacles. Not even three or four battle pets combined were as big as one tentacle.

Roar!!

Right then, they heard a deafening bellow from a different creature.
