Still Too Green, Shop Access Upgraded
"Didn't I tell you? I'm busiest on weekends. Anything I don't have time to deal with from Monday to Friday, like documents, I have to finish on Saturday."
"That way I'll have time to visit my Uncle Enlightenment on Sundays and read to him."
"I'm an old man, and you're still putting me through this."
The voice on the phone sounded somewhat resentful.
"But what's going on with the teachers in your 'Kindling Class lately? I received calls from Xiao Chen and Xiao Zhao this morning."
Upon hearing this, the smile on Sun Xingtian's lips vanished.
"Principal, what do they want with you?" Sun Xingtian blurted out.
Why can't you break this disgusting habit of prying into other people's privacy?
"But it's nothing serious, it's all because of that student in your class named Lin Yuan."
"Xiao Chen applied for more funding from the school's research group, saying that Lin Yuan's [Courier Bird] project needed more support, and that he had already made amazing discoveries in less than a week of research."
"Tell me, what can the [Courier Bird] project produce?"
"Could it possibly evolve into a new form?"
"If a high school student could figure out something that hasn't been solved in centuries, wouldn't our school become world-famous?"
"But Xiao Chen almost knelt down on the phone, and I felt sorry for him, so I reluctantly approved another 300,000 Alliance Coin."
"Xiao Zhao went even further."
He said our school has too few authorized [Nourishment Art] and [Beast-Taming Art] related to pupil techniques.
"They're saying that if things continue like this, Lin Yuan won't be able to learn any new Spells in two months."
"Did I say I can't learn other things?"
"He said he only wanted anything related to pupil techniques, and even tempted me by saying, 'Do you want to win a gold medal for the school in the Spellcraft Competition this year? If you do, you'll have to invest.'"
"I'm 66 years old, what kind of scam haven't I seen?"
"I refused immediately."
But he actually forced me to resign!
"I was so angry that I thought about it for a while, but I still decided to buy the copyrights to two new Spells first."
"After all, Xiao Zhao's coming to our school is somewhat related to Uncle Enlightenment. We can't let him get away before things are settled."
"Oh my, it's a Saturday, and it's so noisy!"
Sun Xingtian felt somewhat helpless upon hearing this.
This old headmaster, you've been rambling on and on, even though you said not to disturb him earlier.
But you clearly just want to find someone to complain to!
"Principal, please don't be angry..." Sun Xingtian originally wanted to go along with the principal's meaning and say that Zhao Liang and Chen Xuanbai had done something wrong.
But then he realized that he was also there for Lin Yuan's sake, and he figured he'd probably have to engage in a heated debate soon...
It really is.
Chen Xuanbai and Zhao Liang are truly despicable!
They moved even faster than him!
He had thought he was far ahead, but it seems he was still a bit slow.
"Ugh, never mind, the more I talk about it, the angrier I get." The principal suddenly remembered something. "Oh, by the way, what's up with your call?"
"Don't even mention giving Lin Yuan something."
"And don't try to play the victim and kneel down on me over the phone."
"And don't tell me you think he could win any gold medal."
"Don't I know my school? In all these years, when has our school's Second Year of High School- year high school students ever won an award in Quality Competition?"
"I absolutely cannot resign!"
Sun Xingtian:...
He hated it; if only he had discovered Baishi's special qualities sooner.
He could have at least three more ways to negotiate with the principal!
Fortunately, he took several online business negotiation courses.
We must win over the principal today!
Half an hour later.
"Alright, I agree." The old headmaster's tone was reluctant. "You said it yourself, you'll be in charge of those 'problem' pets in the Rare Beast Garden starting today."
"I feel more at ease leaving it with you; the other teachers don't have your extensive experience."
"And, if Lin Yuan doesn't win the gold medal, you'll have to teach an extra class starting next year."
"Hmm." Sun Xingtian gritted his teeth.
What kind of online negotiation course is this!
Why is it so useful when talking to students?
Even when it came to the old headmaster, it didn't work!
He grew angrier the more he thought about it.
How come out of the three teachers, he was the only one who paid the "price"?
Chen Xuanbai made progress by "kneeling" on the phone.
Seeing is believing; he simply didn't believe Chen Xuanbai had actually knelt down!
Zhao Liang is even more despicable; he just threatened to quit his job!
Who told him to arrive a step too late...?
"Okay, I'll get the paperwork ready and approve Lin Yuan's pet selection rights for the Rare Beast Garden next Monday."
Sun Xingtian breathed a sigh of relief.
At least the matter was resolved.
He can't mess up the promise he made to his students.
Sun Xingtian took out his phone and looked at the [Lin Yuan Competition Plan] group, his brows furrowed.
I really want to leave the group.
But he is the group owner.
Principal's Office, Puquan Beast-Taming Experimental High School
The office is simple, with the words "Every Word Rings in the Ear" hanging on the white wall.
Li Changsheng was all smiles.
At sixty-six years old, he did not look old at all; there was not a single gray hair in his hair.
There are some wrinkles at the corners of her mouth and on her forehead when she smiles.
"Haha, these kids are still too green."
He looked at Lin Yuan's photo on the table and murmured to himself, "This is the exceptional talent that Uncle Enlightenment nine days ago."
"He'll definitely be granted any resources he needs."
"However, it's quite interesting to see several elite teachers working so hard to advocate for a student's interests."
"Let's take advantage of their shared 'weakness' and let them realize their value so they can contribute more to the school."
Li Changsheng hadn't told Sun Xingtian the whole story.
He agreed to Chen Xuanbai's request.
However, Chen Xuanbai has to give two presentations on scientific research knowledge on behalf of the school this academic year.
He agreed to Zhao Liang's request.
However, Zhao Liang needs to set aside more time to answer students' questions after class.
"I'll tell Uncle Enlightenment about this tomorrow and let him have a good laugh."
"Let's finish preparing the documents and materials first..."
Afternoon.
At Lin Yuan's home.
He sat in front of his computer and opened his online Pet Food Shop store.
At this point, a two-star Pet Food Shop icon has been marked in the upper right corner of the shop.
Lin Yuan had filled out the application form and verification materials for upgrading the store's star rating over the past two days, and now he was finally receiving good news.
Now, the tags under his profile picture on his personal homepage have also been updated.
[One-Star Beast Tamer][Two-Star Certified Pet Food Shop Owner][Kindling Seed][Puchuan Inheritor]
Reopen the shop and search for the [Spiritblast Lion Fruit], [Mad Lion Essence Blood], and [Four-Leaf Wonder Herb] that he is currently missing.
Search.
He was overjoyed.
Previously, I didn't have the authority to buy [Spiritblast Lion Fruit] and [Four-Leaf Wonder Herb].
They've all appeared!
The High-Grade Commander [Spiritblast Lion Fruit] is priced at around 600,000 Alliance Coin.
The High-Grade Commander [Four-Leaf Wonder Herb] is priced at around 700,000 Alliance Coin.
He went to Huang Tao's house a few days ago and provided the second week's worth of [Spirit Dew]. After that, his assets exceeded three million Alliance Coin.
However, after that, he purchased the [Intelligence Ginseng Fruit] needed for Linghuan's evolution and the [Bloodline Fusion Liquid] needed for Baishi's evolution, which cost him nearly one million Alliance Coin.
They also purchased some sealing tools to ensure the activity and freshness of the materials.
It has arrived and been properly stored.
Materials of Commander Quality are not like materials of Transcendent Quality, which can be found in multiple stores.
If you don't buy it, there's a risk that someone else will buy it first, causing a shortage.
In addition, there are two Transcendent -grade materials to aid in the evolution of pet beasts.
If he buys these two products, his assets will drop to just over 300,000 Alliance Coin.
Fortunately, I can go to Huang Tao's house to "collect the money" next Friday.
It feels great to have a weekly salary of 1.5 million Alliance Coin!
However, he also truly realized that Beast Tamer is really expensive.
The cost of materials required for evolving from Transcendent Quality to Commander Quality has become increasingly higher.
So, now only...
[Mad Lion Essence Blood]!
According to Sun Xingtian's expectations, Baishi might reach the Ordinary Level 10 in two weeks.
We need to find a way to get this material before then.
We need to ask Liu Xing for help.
Just as I thought of this, Liu Xing sent me a message.
[Lin Yuan, the design and construction drawings are finished. I'll send them to you for a look.]
