Chapter 419 Protecting the Reputation

“Not interested.”

Su Ping crumpled the letter. A ball of flames appeared in his palm and the envelope was burned to dust.

Both Tang Ruyan and Su Lingyue were surprised. How could Su Ping, a human being, release a fireball so casually?! Humans weren’t like the pets of the element family. The astral powers humans cultivated had no properties. It was almost impossible for humans to unleash a skill that had elements unless they used some secret skills. The fact that Su Ping could make a fireball freely without much preparation was unexpected.

While Su Ping was crumbling the letter, he suddenly heard the system’s voice. The system, “Ding!” “The host has received an invitation from the Trainers Association. Generating temporary mission.

“Temporary mission generated.

“Mission published: Trainer’s reputation.

“Mission summary: as an owner of a pet store, how can the host not be an official trainer? The host shall obtain a trainer certification issued by the world the host lives in and build up a trainer reputation. The host will be deemed qualified when the reputation score reaches 100!

“Mission reward: a random low-level trainer skill book.

“Punishment for mission failed: minus two million energy points! 11*(9*’*)* Good luck!”

Su Ping was surprised. He triggered a mission? Anyways, what’s with the sticker? When did the system learn to act cute? Su Ping dissed the system inwardly. He always had a feeling that the system was not serious. It was as if something was faking to be a system. But the mission’s reward was quite nice. A random low-level skill book. The Strength Enhancement and the Elementary Rules of Thunder he acquired were both low-level skill books. If he could get a Speed Enhancement, or other elementary rules, that would be nice.

That would be a great aid to his combat strength.

But the mission was described in a vague way. Reputation score of 100? What did it mean? “System, can you specify?” “(05_). Please understand it yourself.”

“….”

Su Ping was speechless. The system said again, “Ding!” “The system has detected that the host has a battle pet with aptitude rated as ‘above average’. The training of advanced pets is now officially available in the store. The host is qualified and can receive advanced pets in the store.

“The prices for training of advanced battle pets. One million astral coins for general training. “One hundred million for professional training!”

Su Ping’s eyes glowed and he was no longer in the mood to wonder why the system was using those emojis and stickers. One hundred million astral coins for the professional training of advanced battle pets. That was one million energy points! He would make enough energy points to upgrade the store again after he trained 10 advanced battle pets! The energy points he made for training each advanced pet would allow him to use the Chaotic Pool for Incubation once! If he could get a beast king, then spending one million energy points would be more than worthwhile.

Su Ping pulled up the system’s shop. He looked at the number. He currently had over six million energy points.

He had made a lot of energy points during the Elite League. However, fewer customers were visiting the store in that period. Also, there were limited spots in the store. If more customers chose general training, he would make less money. If more customers chose professional training, he would make more money.

But all in all, whenever he opened for business and his store was packed, he could make four to five hundred thousand energy points per day. If all of the customers went there for the professional training, he would have made several million every day. But most of the customers chose the general training. After all, professional training was too expensive. Not everyone could afford that. As a boss under the “close watch” of the system, Su Ping was unable to choose customers. He had to accept everything until no more spots were available. “I can upgrade the store again when I have another four million energy points. “But I can try my luck at the Chaotic Pool for Incubation,” Su Ping said to himself. He was not in a big hurry at the moment. He could give it a try every now and then.

He had spent five days in the Mysterious Realm. Su Ping believed he had too many things to take care of.

First of all, he had to go through the treasures that the Tang Family and the Star Organization had given him. As for the government, he had to tell them not to block the street. What kind of business could he run if he had no customers?

“Go and get those people from your Tang Family. Do you have the other people’s contacts? Tell them that I’m back,” Su Ping said to Tang Ruyan. Tang Ruyan nodded to him.

Tang Ruyan left. Su Ping looked at Su Lingyue. Her once lopped off hand had grown back to its regular size and looked quite nice. “I still have Yan Bingyue in custody. Do whatever you want to do with her,” Su Ping said.

Su Lingyue shook her head after a moment of silence. “Never mind… Let her go, I started it. If it weren’t for the fact that I couldn’t beat her and wanted to have her disqualified by committing suicide, she wouldn’t have been as pissed to do that to me.” Su Ping looked at her. “Are you sure?” Su Lingyue nodded. Su Ping said nothing else but he didn’t promise her that he would let Yan Bingyue go directly. “This is my fault as well. If I hadn’t forced you to participate in the match, you wouldn’t have ended up like that. What kind of compensation do you want?” Su Ping asked. “It’s not because of you. At the end of the day, I’m too weak.” Su Lingyue shook her head. “I have been informed that I can participate in the continental competition in a week but I want to give up. Without Frosty, which you gave me as a gift, I couldn’t have even made it to the Top 100 here. “I want to keep on learning, training and cultivating. Only when I am powerful enough can I attain real glory!” She was serious. The Elite League had touched her deeply. No one knew what she was feeling when she was sitting in the staging area.

She was the only one who knew.

She was desperate to try and grow. Everyone sitting around her were true talents and more powerful than she was. Yes, she was younger than the others. But was age a proper excuse? Su Ping was her brother, merely one year older than her, and yet he could already kill battle pet warriors at the titled rank! Strength was not about age. That was something she had learned from Su Ping. She had to apply that rule to herself as well. Age shouldn’t be her excuse. She had to become stronger, much stronger! Su Ping was not surprised to find that she would give up. He nodded, not trying to persuade her.

As a matter of fact, he wasn’t interested in her winning the global championship. After all, winning that championship would only get her instructions from a legendary battle pet warrior. He no longer deemed that important. Continuing to participate in the match would only be a waste of time. She would be in danger as well. After all, Su Lingyue had no chance to show her strength throughout the process. She had just been a puppet. “Giving up the continental match is a good thing. But you don’t have to work so hard. I’ll take care of you and mom from now on. I will always be here,” Su Ping said. At first, he wanted Su Lingyue to be able to be independent. But the Elite League had changed him. He could protect his family. Why would he force his family to pay extra efforts? Their lives on earth were limited. The most important thing was to be happy.

What was the point of him carrying the burden if his family was unable to live a better life? Su Lingyue gazed at Su Ping solemnly. A while later, she shook her head. “I still hope that I can become stronger. After all… I want to see the view from the peak as well.”

Su Ping was lost in a myriad of thoughts. Su Lingyue was always anxious to outdo others. He realized that he couldn’t talk her out of it.

The Elite League must have frustrated her. “Have you decided?” Su Ping gazed at her. “That won’t be an easy journey.”

Su Lingyue flashed a brilliant smile. “What’s the point of living if we don’t go through hardships?” Su Ping smiled. No wonder she was his sister. They did share some similarities in ways of thinking.

Indeed.

A life without setbacks and difficulties would be too boring. “Okay, If you say so. There isn’t much I can do to help, but you can always come to me for pet training. I will also find you some treasures for your protection,” Su Ping said.

Su Lingyue didn’t turn him down. She nodded with a smile.

Su Ping suddenly remembered the admission letter to the best academy in the Subcontinent District. He dug it out from his storage space, and handed it over to her. “If strength is what you are seeking then, go to the academy. This is the most famous academy in the Subcontinent District. The quality of their education should be better than that in the Phoenix Peak Academy.”

Su Lingyue was stunned by disbelief. “Do you mean the… Valiant Academy?”

Su Ping was surprised to find she had heard about it. It seemed that the academy truly had a widespread reputation. In this day and age when communication was often inaccessible, people in the Longjiang Base City were actually able to hear news about that academy. “It is true…” Su Lingyue took the invitation. She stood aghast as she saw the words printed on the paper. That was the dream academy for all the attending students in the academies of the Longjiang Base City.

It was said that even the weakest students were advanced battle pet warriors in the Valiant Academy!

In the hundreds of years of history of the Valiant Academy, hundreds of the students grew to be titled battle pet warriors and two had become legendary battle pet warriors!

That was one of the best academies across all the continents!

Those who graduated from the Valiant Academy could easily get a job with a high position or join some base cities’ government as officials and generals, which usually came with good pay. “Where did you get that?” Su Lingyue asked.

Su Ping answered, “Just by chance.”

By chance… Su Lingyue felt her heart had skipped a beat. She was speechless. But it wasn’t hard to understand that Su Ping would be able to get one because he could even force the titled battle pet warriors to surrender to him. That was the benefit of having great strength. What others would eagerly seek was extremely easy to obtain for the powerful.

Su Lingyue was more determined to cultivate and develop. “I’ll gladly take it,” Su Lingyue said. Su Ping wouldn’t need this invitation. She believed that no academy would be able to teach a freak like him.
