Chapter 17 Questions and Provocations
In a blink of an eye, half a day had passed.
The bell rang, and it was time to go home from school. As usual, Li Qian prepared to leave immediately.
However, at this moment, a clear and familiar voice called him from behind, "Li Qian."
Li Qian turned around and saw that the person who called him was the squad leader Tu Jiaojiao.
Seeing this, a hint of doubt suddenly appeared in his eyes.
In addition, there was a hint of embarrassment.
Although Li Qian did not participate in some things, which were all the sins left by his predecessor, he inherited all of his memories after all, and the past experiences could be regarded as an alternative kind of immersion.
So every time he saw the squad leader Tu Jiaojiao, he couldn't help but think of the time when he secretly changed the signature on Fatty An's love letter to his own name and sent it out.
What made him feel a little embarrassed when he recalled it was that the squad leader Tu Jiaojiao refused without hesitation.
She said that she has no intention of falling in love now and all her attention is focused on her beast taming career.
I even took the initiative to persuade him to stop thinking too much and focus on his studies.
Although this kind of thing did not happen in public, it is still somewhat embarrassing.
Therefore, Li Qian would basically never bring it up on his own initiative, as if this incident had never happened.
"Squad leader, what's the matter?" After a brief moment of awkwardness, Li Qian quickly calmed down.
Those ridiculous things were done by my predecessor and have nothing to do with me.
Well, this is a bit self-deception after all.
"You've been leaving in a hurry as soon as school is over these days. Did something happen to you?" Tu Jiaojiao asked, with some concern in her tone.
When Li Qian first heard this voice, he was a little confused.
How is this going?
As far as he knew, on weekdays, squad leader Tu Jiaojiao was basically rude to everyone.
What's the purpose of suddenly caring about yourself now?
Out of duty as squad leader?
Let’s just take it as it is.
"Nothing, something happened at home and I have to go back quickly." Li Qian had no intention of answering, he just made up a lie.
“I’m about to graduate…”
"At this point in time, if you have any difficulties, don't hide it and tell me." The lie Li Qian made up didn't have any effect. Tu Jiaojiao still spoke subjectively according to her own thoughts.
Scratching his head, Li Qian smiled what he thought was a brilliant smile, "Thank you for your concern, squad leader."
He went on to say: "But I have no difficulties and I have not encountered any problems."
"The reason why I was in a hurry to go back was because something happened at home, but it was not a big deal."
Tu Jiaojiao tilted her head and looked at Li Qian, then said to herself with some emotion: "After all, we are classmates for three years. If you really encounter any difficulties, you can tell me. Also, remember not to use mental potions casually."
Although Li Qian still found it a little confusing, he had a rough idea of what Tu Jiaojiao was thinking.
He smiled and gave Tu Jiaojiao a grateful look, "Thank you, I understand."
After a pause, he decided to reveal his true situation, "I will not use mental potions, because I have already awakened."
After saying that, he waved his hand and quickly left the classroom.
Standing there, Tu Jiaojiao stared at Li Qian's quickly departing back, and was stunned for a moment. After a moment, she finally reacted.
She murmured in a low voice, "So, you have also awakened."
In the non-motor vehicle parking area next to the teaching building, Li Qian got on his broken bicycle again.
The bicycle shot out at a swift speed.
When it arrived at the school gate, the bicycle did a beautiful drift and changed direction.
Just as Li Qian was about to ride straight to the artificial waterfall, the roar of an engine suddenly exploded beside his ears.
Immediately afterwards, a fiery red sports car slowly drove up to him.
The car window rolled down, revealing a fat head.
It was Fatty An.
"Li Qian, you've been in such a hurry these days. What have you been busy with?" Fatty An asked, pursing his lips.
"How can you spend your one million?" Li Qian said truthfully. In a sense, what he said was not wrong.
Whether it is training Qizi and Afu, or learning and cultivating knowledge, it is all for evolution.
Evolution is not just about spending money.
"Are you really researching the evolution of some overlord-level potential pet?" Fatty An still didn't quite believe it.
The suspicion in his eyes did not diminish at all.
"Can I still lie to you?" Li Qian glanced at him.
This guy doesn't seem to believe in himself yet.
"How far has the research progressed?" Fatty An's expression turned serious.
"It's almost done. If nothing goes wrong, we should be able to produce results before graduation." Li Qian replied.
There is no truth in what he said.
After you awaken, if the pet prepared at home does not have the potential to reach the overlord level, you can wait for the pet I have.
"Hearing you speak so seriously, I'm a little looking forward to it." The doubt in Fatty An's eyes turned into interest.
He knew that Li Qian was not the kind of person who liked to brag.
However, it still sounded unreliable to put his first pet on Li Qian, so he didn't take it seriously.
"Yo, yo, yo, isn't this Young Master An who hasn't awakened yet?" Just as the two were talking, another familiar voice sounded from not far away.
Li Qian looked in the direction of the voice, and the next moment, he saw a somewhat tall figure with a slightly feminine temperament between his brows.
Li Qian also knew this person.
His name is "Sun Shouhe" and like Fatty An, his family is also in business.
Perhaps because they are both second-generation rich, Sun Shouhe and Fatty An have always been at odds with each other.
Whenever they meet, there will be some quarrels.
Li Qian and Fatty An are close friends, and as a result, they are also being targeted by Sun Shouhe.
From time to time, I would be criticized in a sarcastic manner.
This time, it was no exception. After Sun Shouhe said something to Fatty An, he set his sights on Li Qian. "As expected, birds of a feather flock together. Trash can only be with trash."
Fatty An looked at Sun Shouhe, fearless, and directly retorted, "Some people, their eyes are covered with shit."
"My brother has been awakened for a few days, but he is still barking here without any purpose."
Fatty An's words were harsh and vicious, but this level of trash talking was just child's play for them.
Sun Shouhe didn't pay attention to such things either.
What really concerned him was what Fatty An had just said.
Li Qian actually woke up.
And awakened silently.
After a cold snort, he curled his lips and said with disdain: "So what if it's awakened? You can only contract the garbage pet assigned by the school. Your future achievements will be just so-so."
Li Qian didn't get angry when he heard this, but said indifferently, "Rubbish pet, I recorded this and will play it for the teacher tomorrow."
When Sun Shouhe heard this, his already somewhat feminine face instantly turned the color of liver.
His family is rich, but it can't compare to Beastmaster High School.
In this world of beast taming, if one wants to achieve something in the field of beast taming, Beast Taming High School is something that one cannot avoid.
Without a student record at Beast Taming High School, Beast Taming University will not accept you.
For a Beast Tamer, whether or not one has attended Beast Taming University makes a world of difference in their achievements.
The Beast Tamer University has almost the best Beast Tamer training system in the entire Federation.
The resources inside are beyond the reach of ordinary beastmasters.
As far as Li Qian knows, currently, almost all the famous beastmasters in the entire Dongxia Federation come from the Beastmaster University.
If the teacher heard what Sun Shouhe had just said, he would definitely not be expelled, but he would definitely be scolded.
