Mikala fell silent. She knew the dean was considering assigning Qiao Sang a different mentor.
To be fair, she did not think she was unqualified to teach Qiao Sang. But given the girl's inhuman talent, there truly were mentors at the school more qualified than her. The dean had even brought up the old dean, which showed that she had genuinely been considering it.
Bitterness filled Mikala's heart. Rarely, she did not respond to the dean. On one hand, she did not know how to respond; on the other, she did not want to discuss the subject.
"Is Qiao Sang beside you now?" Theresa did not mind that Mikala had not answered her and asked.
Mikala stiffly uttered two words. "She isn't."
After saying that, she realized her attitude was somewhat off and added, "She went to the Beast Taming Center to register for the S-Rank Professional Beast Tamer assessment."
"Call me again once she returns," Theresa said. "I'll have a proper talk with her about the mentor matter."
Mikala did not respond.
Theresa said earnestly, "Even if Qiao Sang changes mentors, you will still be her mentor. Your contributions will not be overlooked. An S-Class Beast Tamer at eighteen—you should understand what kind of talent that is."
Mikala gave a bitter smile. "I respect your arrangement."
Without any further small talk, she hung up and tossed her phone aside. She no longer had any interest in showing off in the group chat.
Penga Mei could tell that her Beast Tamer had not had a pleasant conversation. She said nothing and merely stayed quietly at her side.
Beast Taming Center.
After her identity and registration details had been confirmed, Qiao Sang was respectfully invited into a spacious office.
