Chapter 263: A Bunch of Clowns, Reeking of
Ye Bai won first place in the Yan Country Young Qilin Cup, and he is about to represent Yan Country to face off against Breeders from other countries.
Just based on this reputation, the Breeder specifically serving him cannot compare.
"Fine, I'll take a look for you and see what this griffin is suitable to evolve into."
For Ye Bai, evolving a third-rank griffin into a fourth-rank one is simply effortless.
As a Fifth-rank Pet Master, his vision is extremely broad; he is no longer the person he once was.
Once Ye Bai starts school, he will request a few projects from Zhang Lingxue to continue his research.
He is now a Fifth-rank Pet Master, and his growth in strength has begun to slow down.
Pet Beasts also need to accumulate more and find enough rare treasures; they require sedimentation and opportunities to be able to develop further.
This is why there are often only a few people at the top of the pyramid.
Advancing from the fifth rank to the sixth rank is not easy.
Just then, a sinister old man walked over from the room.
"I, a level-six Breeder, Luo Sheng, want to have a match with you."
"Do you dare to compete with me?"
"Let's see who is better."
"If I lose, I will bet this Earth Dragon Turtle Pet Beast Egg to you."
"If you lose, kneel before me three times and say 'I am inferior in skill,' how about that?"
"The entire process will be broadcast live to let the vast masses of Yan Country supervise."
Luo Sheng, the Breeder hired by Gao Tu's family, said to Ye Bai.
Ye Bai gave a cold laugh; he raised his eyebrows at Gao Tu, smiling without a word.
Is this an attempt to intimidate him? What a high-and-mighty attitude.
Does he think that just because he says he wants to challenge me, I must participate? Gao Tu was both ashamed and annoyed at this moment; Old Luo was actually making him lose face in front of Ye Bai.
"Old Luo, our Gao family hired you to be a Breeder, not to make such rude demands."
"If you don't want to work anymore, you can submit your resignation."
Steward Wang rushed over from the side and said loudly to Luo Sheng.
Old Luo sneered a few times and mocked, "You are just a steward, while I am a distinguished guest invited by your Gao family."
"Gao Tu, even your father wouldn't dare speak to me so boldly; do you have the guts?"
Luo Sheng completely disregarded Gao Tu, making Gao Tu tremble with rage; he shouted, "You are fired."
Luo Sheng ignored him and instead looked toward the door: "Mr. Gao, are you the head of the house now, or is your son?"
"Your son is truly too disrespectful to me."
He questioned Gao Tu's father loudly.
Gao Tu's father, Gao Peng, immediately apologized with a smile: "I'm sorry, Mr. Luo, for the grievance you've suffered."
"Gao Tu, you are too impolite; apologize to Mr. Luo at once."
"Old Luo is a guest I went to great lengths to invite."
"He is not someone any Tom, Dick, or Harry can compare to."
Gao Peng spoke with hidden meaning; Gao Tu was absolutely furious. Why did this spineless man have to cause trouble at such a critical moment?
Without any ability, wouldn't it be better to just be a mascot? "Haha, since you are so confident, then I won't participate."
"I'm not interested in any competitions."
"Gao Tu, next time there is such a waste of time, you don't need to specifically invite me over."
"If I have that spare time, I might as well do a few more experiments in the Laboratory."
Ye Bai intended to summon his Space Pelican and leave; he didn't want to be treated like a monkey in a zoo.
At this moment, Old Luo made a gesture, and bodyguards surrounded Ye Bai.
The bodyguards held Desert Eagles in their hands, pointing them at Ye Bai's forehead.
It was as if the moment Ye Bai moved, they would pull the trigger, and the bullets would blow Ye Bai's head open like a watermelon.
"Stop right there, did I say you could leave?"
"Today, whether you want to compete or not, you will; otherwise, don't blame the blades for being heartless."
"Ye Bai, your grand-teacher Su Qingxian and your teacher Zhang Lingxue are indeed very impressive."
"But I win in terms of rich experience."
"On this point alone, you cannot compare to me."
"A genius being knocked off the pedestal by me—I want to know what that tastes like."
Ye Bai gave a cold laugh: "Yo, yo, yo, someone is reeking of 'daddy' vibes; so eager to be a father to others?"
"And what are you? Have you added any honor to Yan Country?"
"I, humble as I am, have developed two evolutionary directions for the Baibian Can and published six papers in scientific journals, two as first author and four as second author."
"May I ask, what is your greatest achievement? Tell me so I can worship you."
"Could it be that you've won the 'Resting on One's Laurels' award, or perhaps the 'Old Fogey' award?"
Luo Sheng was so suppressed by Ye Bai's words that he couldn't even catch his breath; his face turned beet red.
Ye Bai even felt like the old guy was about to stop breathing the next second.
"Young friend, you should maintain a certain level of respect for your elders."
Gao Peng jumped out again, like a fly, making people feel very annoyed.
"Respect? Old senior? Sorry, I don't see any seniors in front of me, just an old man who rests on his laurels and refuses to seek progress."
"Gao Tu, our deal is canceled."
"In the future, there is no need to look for me for such matters; any Breeder above the fifth rank can do it."
Just as Ye Bai was preparing to Depart, the sky suddenly darkened.
The surrounding air instantly became cold, and large flakes of snow fell from the sky. "Ye Bai?"
A very excited tone came from above.
Ye Bai looked up and saw that it was the thick-browed and big-eyed Chen Longzhu.
A giant Frost Glass Dragon was coiled high in the sky, and a small Glass Dragon was hiding in the Frost Glass Dragon's fur, looking at Ye Bai with timid eyes.
The small Glass Dragon's eyes were like fine glazed glass.
The dragon horns on top of its head had already grown out.
Its head full of ice-blue long hair drifted with the wind, giving it an indescribable sense of elegance.
"Hello there, little guy."
Ye Bai waved at the small Glass Dragon.
The small Glass Dragon was happy at first, but then its eyes dimmed significantly.
It turned its head away and burrowed into the Frost Glass Dragon's fur, disappearing from sight.
"It's perfect that you're here, Ye Bai; I've looked for you several times, but you weren't there."
"My friend also lives near here; could I ask you to take a look for me?"
"I went to find you today, and the Paper Puppet said you weren't there, but I ended up bumping into you here; this must be fate ordained by heaven."
Seeing Chen Longzhu acting so familiar with Ye Bai, Gao Peng immediately realized that he had kicked an iron plate.
He had thought Ye Bai was an orphan without support and had even intended to vent his anger for Old Luo, but it turned out his backing was this massive.
If Chen Longzhu were to casually say something bad about him, there would be no shortage of people ready to kick him while he was down.
The Gao Family's vast foundation would be destroyed in an instant, and his own small company relied on the Gao Family to survive.
Gao Peng glared fiercely at Luo Sheng, and just as he was preparing to go forward to greet Chen Longzhu and exchange pleasantries, Chen Longzhu suddenly asked, "Ye Bai, are you finished here?"
Ye Bai glanced at Gao Peng: "It's over. Someone felt my skills weren't great and that I liked to put on a show, so the transaction is canceled."
"I happen to have time now to go visit your friend."
"Let's go, Chen Longzhu."
After hearing Ye Bai's words, Gao Peng's heart skipped a beat.
This Ye Bai was holding a grudge against him.
Before Gao Peng could speak, Chen Longzhu took Ye Bai and left the place directly.
Damn it, he had mistaken a fish eye for a pearl.
If he could have made a connection with Chen Longzhu, how glorious their family would have been in the future.
A small company could have become a multinational conglomerate.
The reason he was able to appear here was because he was Gao Tu's father.
Although Gao Tu really didn't want to admit it, the paternity test report was indeed true.
"Gao Tu, do you still have a way to contact Ye Bai?"
"I spoke out of turn just now; I want to apologize to Ye Bai."
Gao Tu shook his head: "It's too late. Ye Bai is famously soft-hearted but not hard-headed; since you stepped on him so ruthlessly just now, if he were to forgive you, there would truly be something wrong with him."
"So you had better accept reality."
"Keep your tail tucked and behave yourself recently."
"If Ye Bai doesn't make a move, others will; do you know who his grand-master is?"
"The man known as the Hell Flame, the current Xu Dog Zhang Dashan."
"He is the most petty; he will hold a grudge all day and all night."
"You should go back now and see if you should sell your small company or what."
"I am friends with Ye Bai, but unfortunately, you are not."
Gao Tu mocked coldly, then looked coldly at the dejected Luo Sheng.
"Luo Sheng, you are fired; I said so."
"By the way, you were wrong about one thing: I am the one in charge of the Gao Family now; it was you who were blind."
Gao Tu was very overbearing at this moment, and his father Gao Peng stood to the side, not daring to say a word, fearing that his small company would be taken back by Gao Tu.
Steward Wang stood tall to the side like a stone pillar.
His mood had been rising and falling.
Steward Wang had once served He.
He knew exactly how great the consequences would be after offending Ye Bai.
The vast Jiaying He Family had vanished into thin air just like that.
It was fortunate that the young master was friends with Ye Bai.
"Steward Wang, you did well; 50% raise."
This sentence from Gao Tu made Steward Wang overjoyed; he felt that even the air was sweet now.
His master was truly generous.
This old servant has finally gotten rid of the work-weariness; as expected, money coming in is the most satisfying thing.
On the way.
Chen Longzhu said to Ye Bai in a flat tone: "That pretty boy Gao Peng insulted you; do you want me to send someone to arrest him and make him sing 'Tears of the Iron Window' for a few months?"
Ye Bai shook his head: "No need, Gao Tu will make a move for me; how much money does a son-in-law who married into the family have?"
"Besides, Old Master Gao also said that all of the Gao Family's assets will be inherited by Gao Tu."
"That kid Gao Tu is sharp; this move of his fully intimidated his own father."
"If you hadn't come, I would have just had the Space Pelican use Space Transfer to teleport me away."
