Chapter 704: Mentor (First update for Snow Moon Flower Shi Alliance Leader!)

The look in Dorarissa's eyes toward Qiao Sang instantly changed.

At that moment, the class bell rang.

Teachers at Yuliandun University never held students after class.

Dorarissa came back to herself and raised her smile again: "Class dismissed."

Hearing this, the crowd began packing up and leaving one after another.

Qiao Sang stood up along with the rest.

Just then, Dr. Dorarissa's voice rang out: "This student, please stay a moment."

Everyone's movements involuntarily slowed, and in perfect unison, they turned to look at the black-haired girl who had been called on.

"Me?" Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment, pointing at herself.

Dorarissa gave a slight nod: "Yes."

Lan Xing heard this and was a little surprised: "You know quite a lot about the Ice Kexilu species?"

She hadn't expected that the first person to extend an invitation to her would actually be a teacher specializing in beast battling.

"Great." Lan Xing nodded.

"I'm an exchange student. I'll be leaving at the end of this semester."

This was... pitying her? A bad premonition rose in Lu Chen's heart, and she couldn't help asking again:

The other party wasn't interested in her, but in Lubao.

Why did it feel like the other party's eyes were full of sympathy?

The next second, Lan Xing understood—it was herself.

"That's wonderful!" Dorarissa's eyes blazed with light as she said excitedly:

"It doesn't matter. You can submit a transfer application, and leave the rest to me."

"It's nothing." Dorarissa withdrew her hand and said gently: "I understand. Although Lu Chenjun's temperament is good and she loves peace, because she regresses through emotional energy each time, her temperament will also change more or less at each stage."

Dorarissa subconsciously overlooked the color of the star array, her entire mind focused on this endangered pet beast she had only ever seen in records.

She paused, and gave an "Mm."

Unfortunately, the Water Luana is an endangered pet beast, so the application was rejected outright the moment it was submitted.

At that moment, another voice full of sympathy sounded beside her: "Lan Xing, the homeroom teacher told you to go find her when you come back."

"Are you interested in becoming my student?"

The red-haired girl was full of sympathy: "This isn't on loop."

That color of star array was not uncommon at Yuliandun University, which was full of top talents.

Dorarissa smiled and said:

Exchange student? Dorarissa said eagerly:

The voice sounded very familiar too.

"Bingke."

"Don't tell me you want to transfer to our school?" Dorarissa asked hesitantly.

Lu Chen pondered for a moment and said:

"Do you have a Binghua Bingke above Blue Star level?"

Lan Xing was startled and quickly said: "Sorry, teacher, my Bingke Lubao doesn't really like being touched by others."

So that's how it was... Lan Xing understood in her heart.

Although Lubao could completely evolve by adding points, if it could be like other Bingke Lubao... Lan Xing thought of this, no longer hesitated, and nodded:

An orange-yellow star array lit up, and Lubao quickly appeared within it.

Lubao consciously looked toward her own beast tamer.

Lu Chen thought, no wonder she knew about Lubao and was interested in it...

Although everyone was curious why the girl had been asked to stay, they still filed out of the classroom one by one.

This is Bingke Lubao... Dorarissa couldn't help reaching out, wanting to stroke it.

What's there to see? Lan Xing was just about to voice her question.

As a pet beast whose entire evolution chain required emotional energy—and different emotional energy at each stage at that—she was simply the perfect research subject.

Dorarissa's face was full of excitement and anticipation; it would have been hard for Lu Chen not to notice.

If the Water Luana were just an ordinary pet beast of Lan Xing's level, getting one for research wouldn't be a difficult matter.

Lan Xing was stunned for a moment.

"What exactly happened?"

She tapped it open.

Before coming, she had looked up Dr. Dorarissa's background and knew that her long-term research projects were all related to pet beasts' emotional energy.

But this was a process of mutual selection.

Coming out of the Comprehensive Building, Lan Xing checked the time, found that her original class was still in session, and headed to Class One of Beast Taming.

The moment she walked in, she noticed everyone staring at her; some covered their mouths and snickered from time to time, without a trace of the earlier reluctance to meet her eyes.

"Bingke..."

They were talking about it?

Lan Xing: "..."

She had long studied projects related to pet beasts' emotional energy, so she naturally knew that the Binghua Bingke was the advanced form of the Water Luana species.

To be precise, it was a Fang Fang Puppet imitating herself.

She had thought that in this lifetime she might only have the chance to see a Kexilu when she reached Qiao Sang's level, but she hadn't expected that among the students attending class today, there would actually be one with the advanced form of Kexilu—a Bingke Lubao!

Luobao's tail gave a flick, and a rare flicker of excitement showed in its eyes.

Qiao Sang carried Like Ya Bao to the podium, and before she could speak, Dorarisa couldn't wait to confirm:

Lu Chen handed the phone back and asked, "Why did he loop that video for you?"

Blue Star took the phone in a daze; on the screen was a paused video.

"Here!"

In the elementary stage, students cannot freely choose courses and instructors based on their own learning needs and interests.

……

The red-haired boy turned his head and stared at you with a look that said "I've already won."

"Did something happen?" Blue Star sensed something was off, sat down next to this red-haired boy who had spoken to her before, and asked.

"Slowly summon it out and show you!"

Dorarisa suddenly spoke.

Lu Chen silently glanced at Dr. Dorarisa.

The student has already applied, and the teacher cannot refuse.

That was… Blue Star stared at the screen and saw that ten seconds ago, "herself" had called out "Here!" again.

Luobao was in a bad mood. Seeing a human reaching a hand toward it — one belonging to its own beastmaster — it simply flicked its tail backward and smacked the person's hand.

"Only next semester is left, and you will still be his mentor for that half year."

Blue Star was silent for two seconds: "What you applied to is the Imperial Beastmaster Academy."

Seeing that expression on your face, Blue Star's heart skipped a beat.

Luobao heard those words, and its tail instantly went rigid.

Blue Star inexplicably saw the shadow of the Foggy Ancient Person on Dr. Dorarisa. Without hesitation, she began forming hand seals.

"You'll know once you watch it." The red-haired boy handed over the phone.

Dorarisa smiled: "Let's add each other as contacts. If you have any questions, you can ask me anytime. The matter of choosing you as a mentor doesn't require a special application — I'll just register it directly."

Regression?

Each mentor has a limited number of slots each year. Generally, at top institutions like Hou Xiangyu Federation Elementary, the student slots held by the teachers there are not given out casually.

After a moment, you adjusted your expression, still composed:

At that moment, Dorarisa looked at Blue Star and said seriously:

Blue Star: "???"

The figure and clothing of the person at the center of the video were very familiar.

But just then, another loud "Here!" rang out from the video.

"Binghua Bingke…"

"I don't know it that well — after all, it's Qiao Sang's pet beast. But I'm an expert in researching pet beast emotional energy, so I've read some material on pet beasts that still rely heavily on emotional energy, or whose evolution still depends on emotional energy."

Still, she understood why Dr. Dorarisa had suddenly brought this up.

It happened to be class time, so Blue Star wasn't worried and simply carried Like Ya Bao inside.

After saying that, she paused and added: "You asked this kind of question in class, probably to prepare for Binghua Bingke Luobao's next stage. I can't speak in absolutes about other aspects, but in the field of pet beast emotional energy, I've done in-depth research and received quite a few honors — I can definitely help you."

"I'm willing."
