Chapter 781: Seething

Is it another pet from his shop?
Cleo was again shocked and thought of Su Ping immediately. She had almost turned numb about the series of Class A ratings, which only appeared once every few years in the past but seemed to have become the norm in recent days!
The lobby seethed after the Class A rating was found out.
The pet owner, an Ocean State young man, stared at the test pillar in disbelief while everybody exclaimed.
I only paid a hundred million to improve my pet to Class A?
Am I dreaming? Or did I stumble upon a windfall?
“Buddy, you’re rich now! You’re rich now!”
“Was your pet trained in that shop? Oh my god, is there a grandmaster trainer in that shop?”
“Damn it, I heard that the training cost was only a hundred million!”
All the customers in the shop wailed. Many people looked at the Ocean State young man with open jealousy. They asked themselves, ‘Why didn’t I go to that shop yesterday?’
Why did they have to go shopping in malls with their girlfriends?
They had to break up with them!
Many people had bloodshot eyes due to jealousy and fury.
The uncanny rules and costs set by the Pixie Pet Store, including the training costs, had been exposed on the Internet. Everybody knew that even the normal training would cost a hundred million in the shop!
There was also the fact that the training would only last one day!
The so-called professional training required ten billion, and half a month to finish.
It was almost like blatant robbery!
However, while they had at first mocked the shop online for ripping off the customers, they were then slapped in the face by reality.
The battle against the Star State experts from the Ryan family further proved that the owner of the shop was a Star State expert himself.
Why would a Star State bigshot care about so little money, or even bother lying to advertise?
However, nobody had expected that the training done at the shop would be that effective!
A Class A attribute had been attained after a single day. Nobody knew the pet’s past aptitude, but it was unlikely to be a Class A-. It was already incredible enough if it would have been improved from B+ to A!
That was something that a master trainer couldn’t achieve; a grandmaster trainer might not achieve it, either!
The Ocean State young man came to his senses while everybody was coveting his pet. He was both excited and scared since he saw how the others were acting like hungry wolves. He hurriedly fetched his pet, paid for the assessment, and left the crowd.
Woffett was a lawful place anyway, and the city guards weren’t far from the site. Nobody would dare to cause trouble at the moment.
Cleo’s face showed a slight change. She then figured out that a new testing policy had to be implemented in her shop after seeing how some people were looking at the leaving Ocean State young man with glowing eyes.
The customer’s privacy had to be protected!
She shouldn’t let others tell easily to whom the pet being tested belonged, or nobody would test any pet in her shop anymore.
She did it immediately, without even having the time to deliver the report that Garland was safe back to her family. She knew her family would learn of the matter even if she didn’t report it.
After all, the boss of that shop wasn’t intent on keeping it a secret. He was simply letting Garland sit in the shop. Her family had probably learned that Garland was still alive.
...
Ten minutes later, exclamations were again heard in the assessment shop again.
Another Class A pet had been found!
It was just A-, but that was still in Class A!
However, nobody knew whose pet it was this time.
Some of the malicious guys looked around and tried to find the pet owner. The entire assessment shop fell quiet in the next two hours.
Class A!
A-!
The two ratings appeared on the test pillar in turns.
None of the pets were rated below A-!
The efervescent shop gradually fell quiet. In the end, everyone stopped talking whenever the Class A rating appeared on the test pillar.
All the people lingering in the shop had become too stupefied to talk.
Since when has the Class A rating become so common?
Some even suspected that the assessment system in the shop was malfunctioning, or had even been set to purposefully cheat.
However, when people questioned the shop, Cleo showed up and revealed her identity as a member of the Ryan family; all doubts dissipated.
Not only was the Ryan family the most powerful on Rhea, it was also the absolute authority that represented fairness!
The planet had thrived exactly because the family was authoritative and fair. Everybody on the planet would have suffered and complained if the Ryans would have ruled over them with nothing but violence.
Cleo, monitoring the situation inside the shop, was completely dumbfounded.
She was almost absolutely certain that the people who were doing the tests had been to Su Ping’s shop and trained pets there!
All their pets had turned out to be Class A!
Did it happen to the ten Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons too? Were they trained and turned Class A overnight before they were sold?
After being stunned for a long time, Cleo suddenly realized what she should do; she patted her forehead and quickly contacted her family in her office.
She was going to deliver the precious message back to her family as soon as possible.
A few minutes later—
The communication was established, and the middle-aged man’s projection made of data streams looked down at Cleo and frowned. “What’s wrong?”
“Mr. Secretary, there’s a piece of intelligence that I don’t know if I should report.”
“Speak.”
“I suspect that the shop where Garland is being kept is backed by a grandmaster trainer, one who borders on the extraordinary level!” said Cleo, gritting her teeth.
It was just an unconfirmed speculation of hers, so she had to consider the consequences if it wasn’t true.
“A grandmaster trainer?”
The middle-aged man’s pupils contracted, but he soon calmed down and said, “What do you mean by ‘suspect’? You should know the consequences of providing false intelligence!”
Cleo bit her lips and said, lowering her head, “Mr. Secretary, this is what happened. That shop can easily raise Class A pets within a day. Such an ability, according to the information I’ve gathered, is almost exclusive to grandmaster trainers...”
“He raised Class A pets in only one day?” The middle-aged man’s expression changed due to a slight shock.
“Are you sure?”
“I’m sure.”
The middle-aged man said after a moment of silence, “I’ll send someone to investigate it. This will count as a great contribution if it’s true! Be on alert in regards to that shop and don’t offend the boss!”
Everybody knew what a grandmaster trainer meant.
Even Star Lords had to treat them politely. Grandmaster trainers would usually have one or even multiple Star Lords in their circle of friends.
Any Star Lord could single handedly crush the Ryan family into smithereens with ease!
The gap between them was like that between gold and s*it!
“Yes, sir.”
Cleo held back her excitement and nodded respectfully.
Great contributions would be rewarded with countless resources. She would no longer be bound by her identity if she was appreciated by her family; she would then be able to compete along with the main branch’s descendants with her talents!
The middle-aged man was secretary to the Kamp Continent’s governor. His position in the family was quite high; he didn’t have to steal the credit from her. After all, he would be well appreciated as long as he confirmed her report and delivered it to the family.
She would also receive enough rewards for her to rise to higher places in the family!
By the way, he said that the pets only went through normal training, and they already have Class A aptitudes. I paid for a professional training session. Will my pet rise to A+?
Su Ping’s casual expression popped up in Cleo’s head. Her heart suddenly pounded; a pet with an A+ rating could be almost considered ultimate!
Besides, her pet was a Fate State Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon. If it was raised to A+, that would mean she would almost be invincible in the Fate State!
Even if she was only a Void State warrior, she could still defeat many Fate State battle pet warriors with her A+ dragon, unless she ran into any of the brilliant geniuses!
...
Inside the Pixie Pet Store—
Su Ping had already returned the pets to their owners; one fifth of them chose to train their other pets in Su Ping’s place.
The rest of them quickly ran to the assessment shop to test the recently trained pets.
Su Ping’s shop was almost emptied after the pets were returned; he then began to welcome new customers.
Mia was the first to enter.
“Boss, it’s truly been a long wait,” said Mia with a smile and a hint of awe, which was different from what others felt; many were awfully nervous when interacting with Su Ping as if they were mice and he were a cat. After all, Su Ping was a Star State bigshot in their eyes; one who could easily kill them.
Mia, on the other hand, was from a renowned family. She had seen a lot of things since childhood, so naturally she controlled herself better than others.
Her confidence came from the bottom of her heart; the Star State wasn’t too unusual in the Laiyefa family.
She had seen how obedient and respectful certain Star State experts were in the presence of her family’s master, so she wasn’t as awed of Su Ping as the others were.
“Thank you for your patience. What do you want to train?”
“I’ve gathered enough money, and I want professional training. Can you train two of my pets?” said Mia gracefully, not as casually as before. She was neither humble nor arrogant.
She certainly wasn’t demeaning the Laiyefa family.
Su Ping’s eyes glittered. Two pets?
It would be twenty billion, which would in turn be converted to two hundred million energy points!
A hundred million was enough to raise the Chaos Spirit Pool to LV5.
To upgrade the shop again only required a billion energy points, which equated to an income of a hundred billion.
He had accomplished one fifth of the task!
“Of course,” replied Su Ping.
“Great.” Mia was greatly relieved to see that Su Ping had accepted the task. She was afraid that he would turn her down because she was being too greedy.
After all, normal training could already produce Class A aptitudes to rise. She couldn’t imagine how powerful Su Ping’s professional training would be; but it would definitely be more effective than with normal training!
Mia felt it would have been a great bargain even if she were to pay ten billion for the normal training!
The pet she had trained was at the Void State. A Void State pet with a Class A aptitude could easily be sold for ten billion on the market!
It would be even more expensive if it was a popular dragon pet!
“I’ll transfer the money now,” said Mia quickly and obediently.
She quickly completed the transfer, fearing that Su Ping might regret that.
She was a VIP client in the Universe Bank, and her transfer limit was a hundred billion. She paid twenty billion up front.
Su Ping looked at the shop’s energy and felt much more delighted to see the additional two hundred million points. He nodded and said, “Take out your pet.”
“Okay.” Mia nodded and was about to summon her pet, when she thought of an important problem and asked, “Boss, how long will the professional training last?”
“Will you need the pet very soon?”
“Well, sort of. I can’t stay on Rhea for long and have to go back to my academy soon.” Mia nodded and hesitated. It didn’t seem appropriate for her to cancel the transaction anymore, which would have offended the Star State expert.
Su Ping didn’t expect that time would be a problem either. He frowned and asked, “If you’re in a hurry, do you have a week?”
“A week?”
Stunned, Mia looked at Su Ping with her mouth opened. “Boss, did you say... one week?”
“Is it too long?” Su Ping slightly frowned. One week was already an exception. He would have to take her pet on every training session and use more strategies in training. The threat of death alone wouldn’t be enough and would have to drain the pet’s potential. He had to train with resources.
But, if the customer didn’t have a week, he would have to use his training technologies, or maybe impart knowledge to the pet.
