Theresa fell silent. She hadn't expected Qiao Sang to refuse.
"You've made up your mind?" Theresa asked.
"I have," Qiao Sang said.
Theresa said gravely, "Mikala told me a little about what you've been through lately. The Former Dean has three Venerable Stage pet beasts. The only difference between him and an SS-Class Beast Tamer is his Brain Domain. With him around, your safety would be better guaranteed."
