Chapter 1539

~14 min read 2,693 words

On such a cold day, where did she go... Upon hearing this, Qiao Sang looked at the heavy snow drifting outside the window, picked up her phone again, and dialed Teacher Mikayla's number.

"Beep, beep..."

"Sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable. Please dial again later..."

No one answered... Qiao Sang put down her phone without paying too much attention, thinking to herself that Teacher Mikayla might be busy right now.

At the same time.

In the goose-feather snow, Mikayla stared at the hung-up phone for a while and continued walking aimlessly on the street.

"Penpen?"

Seeing this, the Pen Jia Mei let out a cry, indicating: Not answering?

"She should be asking where I am. I'm not in the mood to go back right now," Mikayla said in a bad mood.

"Penpen?" The Pen Jia Mei let out a cry, indicating: What exactly did the principal say?

The soundproofing effect of the phone made by the Imperial Beast Taming Academy was truly too good. It didn't hear the voice on the other end of the phone; it only knew that its own Beast Tamer was in a very bad mood after answering the phone.

Mikayla was silent for two seconds and said:

"The principal wants to change Qiao Sang's mentor, feeling that with her talent, I am no longer suitable to teach her."

The Pen Jia Mei was stunned for a moment and fell silent.

It glanced at its own Beast Tamer and felt somewhat sad for her.

It clearly knew that after its own Beast Tamer became Qiao Sang's mentor, although she didn't show it usually, she had been quite proud and happy during this period. After the first round of the Interstellar Cup, she hadn't been this happy for a long time.

After about ten seconds, the Pen Jia Mei let out a cry:

"Penpen."

Qiao Sang might not want to change mentors.

Mikayla said in a calm tone: "The principal is actually right. With Qiao Sang's talent, she now needs a mentor who is more suitable for her."

Her tone had no waves, as if she had already seen through it, but her face had a look of being dead inside.

In all fairness, if she were Qiao Sang and had become an S-level Beast Tamer at eighteen, she would definitely choose a better mentor instead of choosing herself, a mentor who had only gone through one round in the Interstellar Cup.

"Penpen..."

The Pen Jia Mei looked at its own Beast Tamer, not knowing how to comfort her for a moment.

In its view, Qiao Sang was indeed the human with the highest talent it knew. Although its own Beast Tamer's level was currently still above hers, she would sooner or later be surpassed. It was also a very normal thing for the other party to change to a human with a higher level as a mentor.

Mikayla walked aimlessly on the street, and the Pen Jia Mei followed quietly by her side.

The atmosphere was somewhat sad and silent for a moment.

Suddenly, her phone vibrated.

Mikayla picked up her phone while walking.

It was a message from "My dear student Qiao Sang":

【Teacher, I want to eat Dragon Kingdom food tonight (shy)】

Mikayla stopped, opened the navigation, and searched for restaurants nearby that served Dragon Kingdom food.

"Penpen?"

The Pen Jia Mei let out a cry, indicating: What's wrong?

"It's mealtime; I should buy food and go back," Mikayla said while searching for nearby restaurants.

The Pen Jia Mei looked at its own Beast Tamer, sighing heavily in its heart.

Its poor Beast Tamer, she was already so sad, yet she still had to pretend nothing was wrong and buy food to go back.

Half an hour later.

Suite.

Mikayla and the Pen Jia Mei appeared out of thin air, carrying a pile of food.

"Teacher, you're back." Hearing the movement, Qiao Sang turned her head to look. When she saw the pile of things in Teacher Mikayla's hands, her eyes suddenly brightened, and she stood up from the sofa all at once, walking over and saying: "Why did you buy so much food today?"

Because I don't know how many more meals I can eat with you like this... Mikayla placed the bags in her hands on the dining table and said in her usual tone: "Didn't you say you wanted to eat Dragon Kingdom food? There happened to be one nearby, so I bought a little more."

"You bought too much," Qiao Sang said, looking at the dishes that almost filled the entire table.

Mikayla changed the subject: "Have you signed up for the S-level professional Beast Tamer assessment?"

Speaking of this, Qiao Sang couldn't help but sigh and said: "Do you know what mission was issued to me?"

Mikayla looked up, surprised:

"The mission has already been issued?"

According to her understanding of the assessment for an S-level professional Beast Tamer, after applying, the materials have to be submitted layer by layer, and it would take about a month before an examiner would make contact. If it were fast, it would be within a week. That was how it was when she took the assessment back then.

She had only just signed up and an examiner had already made contact and issued a mission; this was the first time she had seen this.

Qiao Sang said "Mm": "It's an examiner named Felix. He received the news about the Luana breaking through its racial limit and specifically came over to confirm it, and incidentally issued the mission to me."

So that's how it is. It seems this examiner works in the Beast Taming Alliance in charge of pet information... Mikayla asked:

"What is the mission?"

Qiao Sang said resentfully: "Search for an alien pet in the eastern hemisphere region of Tianyuan Star."

Mikayla was stunned: "Alien pet?"

"Yes," Qiao Sang nodded slightly, her tone becoming even more resentful: "The search area is the entire eastern hemisphere of Tianyuan Star, and we don't even know the specific appearance of that alien pet. It even has the ability to change into other species and human forms."

This... Mikayla frowned and said: "This mission is a bit difficult to handle."

"Isn't it," Qiao Sang said worriedly: "Not to mention that we don't know what that alien pet specifically looks like, the search range is so large. If Country A searches and doesn't find it, and we go to Country B, what if it goes to Country A?"

Mikayla pondered for a moment and said: "This might require the help of a Mechanical-type pet."

Qiao Sang was stunned: "Mechanical-type pet?"

Mikayla nodded: "That's right, a Mechanical-type pet. As long as you find a Mechanical-type pet that specializes in collecting information to help, you can quickly narrow down the range and find pets that have transformation abilities and haven't been registered with the Beast Taming Alliance."

She paused and added: "Of course, this isn't certain. If it were really that easy to find, the Beast Taming Alliance would have found it itself, rather than issuing it as a mission."

Qiao Sang guessed: "Perhaps the Beast Taming Alliance isn't sure if it's really an alien pet either. After all, that examiner told me it was highly suspected."

"No matter what, it's never wrong to find a Mechanical-type pet to help with this mission," Mikayla said. "It will definitely be much more efficient than you searching by yourself."

Mechanical-type pet... Qiao Sang suddenly thought of something, her eyes brightening, and she said: "How about you say we find Gui Lun Saier to help?"

Mikayla looked at her and said: "Students in our Imperial Class cannot rely on the school's power when doing this kind of assessment mission."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Sang revealed a disappointed expression.

In terms of collecting information, the most powerful Mechanical-type pet she could think of was Gui Lun Saier.

Mikayla glanced at Qiao Sang, sat down at the dining table, and said in a calm tone:

"Today I contacted the principal and talked about your brain domain breakthrough and contracting Xia Xia Lala. The principal said to contact her again when you return; she has something to say to you."

The Pen Jia Mei glanced at its own Beast Tamer.

Qiao Sang's first reaction was to be somewhat flattered, but remembering that she and Lu Bao had broken through at the same time and she had contracted Xia Xia Lala, she suddenly felt that it was quite normal to chat with her. While sitting down on the chair, she asked:

"What does the principal want to say to me?"

Mikayla's hand holding the chopsticks paused, and then she returned to normal, saying:

"I don't know. She only said to contact her when you return. Eat first; we'll contact the principal after you finish eating."

Qiao Sang said without thinking: "I'd better contact the principal now."

Given the principal's generosity, she had broken through her brain domain to the level of an S-level Beast Tamer and had contracted Xia Xia Lala; she would definitely be rewarded with quite a few points.

Thinking of this, she couldn't wait.

Qiao Sang looked at Teacher Mikayla with bright eyes, expecting her to take out her phone quickly with her gaze.

Mikayla was silent for two seconds, unlocked her phone, and found the principal's contact information. She didn't dial directly but pushed the phone to Qiao Sang.

She looked very quiet, not quite like her usual self.

Qiao Sang was immersed in the thought that the principal would definitely give a lot of points as a reward, completely unaware. She quickly picked up the phone and dialed.

"Beep, beep..."

After only two beeps, the call was connected.

"Hello." The principal's voice came from the speaker.

Qiao Sang subconsciously straightened her back, her tone respectful, and went straight to the point: "Principal, this is Qiao Sang. Teacher Mikayla said you have something to say to me."

Mikayla buried her head in eating.

The Pen Jia Mei looked at Qiao Sang answering the phone, then looked at its own Beast Tamer, sighing heavily in its heart.

On the other end of the phone, Theresa's voice softened quite a bit: "I heard from Mikayla that your brain domain broke through to 70% and you also contracted Xia Xia Lala."

Qiao Sang said "Mm," her words humble, but her tone slightly proud: "I didn't expect that I could become an S-level Beast Tamer at such a young age."

I became an S-level Beast Tamer at such a young age; why don't you hurry up and talk about the point reward...

Theresa sighed with emotion: "I have truly never heard of your talent. Not to mention since the establishment of the Imperial Beast Taming Academy, even looking at the entire interstellar space, there has never been a Beast Tamer with talent as high as yours."

Qiao Sang had just been praised by the examiner and was already immune, but the corners of her mouth still couldn't help but rise. She was just about to say something humble.

Yet at this moment, Theresa continued: "I asked you to contact me because I want to say that I'm changing your mentor."

Qiao Sang: "???"

Qiao Sang bounced up from the chair, her face full of astonishment: "Change mentor?!"

After saying this, she couldn't help but glance at Teacher Mikayla.

Mikayla lowered her head, pretending she didn't hear, and continued to silently shovel rice into her mouth.

The Pen Jia Mei glanced at its own Beast Tamer, sighing again in its heart.

"Jiuji?"

The Jiu Bu Gu widened its eyes.

Change mentor?

Does that mean she wants to change its own Beast Tamer?

Like Ya Bao and the others looked at their own Beast Tamer, then looked at Mikayla, their expressions either blank, astonished, or pensive.

Only Little Tingbao had a completely different reaction, its eyes brightening all of a sudden, as if it had heard some earth-shattering good news.

Could it be that Teacher Mikayla knew about the principal's plan long ago... Seeing Teacher Mikayla lowering her head to eat and not looking at her, Qiao Sang's heart suddenly sank. She took her phone and went to the room to continue listening.

Mikayla's eating movement stopped.

"Xia Xia..."

Xia Bao seemed to understand something too, floating to Mikayla's side, looking like it didn't know how to comfort her.

Mikayla rarely didn't look at Xia Bao but sat silently.

Suddenly, Qiao Sang's voice came from the room: "I don't want to change mentors."

Mikayla: "!!!"

Mikayla's eyes suddenly brightened, as if she had come back to life. She turned her head to look in the direction of the room, her face full of shock and astonishment.

"Penpen..."

The Pen Jia Mei also looked in the direction of the room, its eyes carrying a bit of relief and being moved.

"Teacher Mikayla is very good. If it weren't for her, Lu Bao wouldn't have been able to evolve so quickly this time, and I wouldn't have been able to receive Lu Bao's feedback, and my brain domain wouldn't have successfully broken through..." Qiao Sang lowered her voice in the room.

Although the voice was lowered quite a bit, for an S-level professional Beast Tamer and the Pen Jia Mei and the others, it was all heard clearly. Even Little Tingbao clearly heard its own Beast Tamer's voice.

"Tingting..."

Little Tingbao's excited mood disappeared, revealing a helpless expression, and it sighed.

It knew its own Beast Tamer wouldn't agree so easily...

In the room.

Qiao Sang was still on the phone.

"Don't be in a hurry to refuse," Theresa on the other end of the phone said: "I know you and Mikayla have a very good relationship, but with your talent, you can already fully match the most excellent mentors in our school. I'm not saying Mikayla isn't excellent, it's just that with your talent, many mentors who have achieved more than Mikayla, and even those who have retired, I believe would all be willing to return to school to teach you."

"I really don't need it; I don't want to change mentors," Qiao Sang refused again.

Theresa was silent for two seconds and said: "Do you know Principal Rakesh Gade?"

Principal Rakesh Gade? Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment and said honestly: "I don't know."

Theresa introduced: "He is our former principal of the Beast Taming Academy. He served as our academy principal for 559 years and personally taught 11 students to participate in the Interstellar Cup. Many mentors in our school are also his students. I think he is more suitable to be your mentor."

Former principal? Served as principal of the Beast Taming Academy for 559 years... This, this... Qiao Sang was very flattered, and then she thought of Teacher Mikayla, quickly calmed down, and asked:

"The former principal should have retired for a long time, right? Would he still be willing to come out to teach students?"

So it really is letting the former principal teach, huh... In the living room, the light in Mikayla's eyes dimmed.

She didn't think there was anyone who could refuse the former principal's teaching.

In the room, on the other end of the phone, Theresa smiled: "If it were someone else, he definitely wouldn't be willing, but if it's you, believe me, he would be very happy."

If she weren't the current principal and had to deal with various matters every day, she would want to fly to Tianyuan Star, replace Mikayla, and teach Qiao Sang.

Qiao Sang fell silent.

To be honest, knowing that the former principal would also teach her, it would be a lie to say she wasn't tempted. After all, that was the former principal of the Beast Taming Academy. Not to mention the strength issue, the resources would definitely be more, and maybe points wouldn't be an issue in the future.

But...

Qiao Sang's mind flashed with the faces of Teacher Mikayla and the Pen Jia Mei and the others, as well as the various scenes they had spent together, and she said firmly:

"Sorry, Principal, I still hope Teacher Mikayla will teach me."
