Chapter 397: A Highly Sought-After Talent
Chapter 397: A Highly Sought-After Talent
Dragonlord and the other breeding experts chatted with Li Qian for a while longer.
Seeing Li Qian packing up, they assumed he was preparing to leave, so they didn't continue to disturb him.
After encouraging him, they bid their farewells and left.
Li Qian saw them off and then heaved a long sigh of relief.
Dealing with these people, although not as thrilling as facing an Imperial-level Companion Beast, was still exhausting.
After sending them off, Li Qian quickened his packing.
Soon, he finished packing.
Storing his belongings in his storage necklace, Li Qian prepared to leave, check out of the room, and return to Shazhou Beast University.
According to President Cong's suggestion, considering their consecutive participation in competitions and the unexpected mishap they encountered, they were given three days off.
Li Qian could have used this three-day vacation to return home.
However, considering the potential harassment he might face upon returning, he decisively dismissed the idea.
Going home at this time was not a good idea.
Just as he reached the door, before he could open it, the doorbell rang again, "Ding Dong, Ding Dong."
Li Qian's lips twitched involuntarily at this.
In the end, he was a step too late.
The visitor this time was both unexpected and within reason.
The head of the Xiahou family, Xia Hou Lan!
Seeing Li Qian about to leave, Xia Hou Lan awkwardly smiled, "Ah, Li Qian, I'm sorry to disturb you."
Although Li Qian was a bit displeased, he couldn't refuse a smiling face.
He had no choice but to welcome Xia Hou Lan into the room.
Inside the room.
Xia Hou Lan thanked him again, "Li Qian, thank you!"
"There's no need to thank me. In the face of such a significant matter, anyone would step forward."
Li Qian said, "Moreover, the official side will also give me a substantial reward."
In fact, he had already received a portion of the reward.
Previously, the Sun Gold Crystal and Thousand-Year Volcano Stone used for the Red Chicken's evolution, each had four remaining.
Just now, Dragonlord had already mentioned that these eight materials would be given directly to him as one of the rewards for his contribution.
Aside from that, it was foreseeable that Galactic Credits and Galactic Contribution Points would also be substantial.
University Credits should also be among the rewards.
As for other things, it was hard to say, and Li Qian was quite looking forward to them.
"In any case, this time, you've helped our Xiahou family tremendously."
Xia Hou Lan said, "With the Three-Legged Golden Crow Ancestor Beast guarding us for the next hundred years, our Xiahou family will experience an unprecedented rise."
"So, you are the great benefactor of our Xiahou family."
Hearing these words, Li Qian rubbed his nose, feeling a bit embarrassed.
Previously, during the evolution, he hadn't thought about it from this perspective.
Moreover, he had some dissatisfaction with the Xiahou family intentionally mixing in the Ancestor Beast.
Now, this dissatisfaction had completely dissipated.
It wasn't that Li Qian was magnanimous and didn't hold a grudge; it was that the Xiahou family had given him too much.
Indeed, after expressing his gratitude, Xia Hou Lan got straight to the point.
Ten billion Galactic Credits, five million Galactic Contribution Points, and over a dozen precious Extraordinary Resources.
Of course, for Li Qian, these were secondary.
Most importantly, Xia Hou Lan was very generous, directly copying and sending him all the breeding-related information from the family's collection.
Facing such a generous reward, Li Qian naturally couldn't refuse.
"In that case, I won't refuse your kindness." After a few polite exchanges, Li Qian gladly accepted these rewards.
Next, they discussed the matter of future cooperation.
The collaboration was naturally regarding the evolution of the Sunbird.
In this aspect, the Xia Hou Clan was also quite generous, directly offering a one-to-one reward.
In other words, each time an evolution was completed, the Xia Hou Clan would provide a reward equivalent to the cost of one evolution material, a reward that could be considered quite substantial.
Of course, Li Qian did not agree unconditionally but instead explained his situation.
After all, he was still a student with coursework to complete, and in the future, he would need to enter the dimensional plane to train, so he could only agree to help with evolutions when he had the time.
He did not commit to any specific number of evolutions.
After finishing their conversation, as soon as Xia Hou Lan left, Li Qian prepared to leave the room.
He didn't want to stay in the room any longer, as he was unsure what might happen next.
However, just as he pushed open the door, Li Qian was stunned.
Because standing at the doorway was someone he had never expected to see.
It was President Fei, the Dean of the Breeding Academy at Shazhou Beast University.
President Fei's sudden appearance here truly surprised him.
"President Fei, why are you here?" Li Qian asked, puzzled, as he looked at President Fei's smiling and serene face.
President Fei let out a bitter laugh, "If I didn't come, who knows how many seductive pests would have bothered you."
Li Qian scratched his head awkwardly after hearing this.
It was clear who President Fei was referring to when he mentioned those seductive pests.
However, was it appropriate to describe his fellow teachers in such a way? Li Qian could only smile awkwardly, neither confirming nor denying.
"It seems like you're about to leave. Perfect timing, I'll take you back." President Fei looked at Li Qian's actions and nodded with satisfaction.
Li Qian readily followed.
He had been worrying about how to deal with those annoying matters, and now, a convenient shield had arrived.
The two left the hotel room, took the elevator, and arrived at the campus hotel.
As soon as they entered, a crowd rushed towards them.
Li Qian took a glance, and his scalp went numb.
There were so many people, including teachers from other schools, recruiters, and representatives from major organizations and corporations. They swarmed noisily, causing Li Qian's mouth to twitch involuntarily.
"Alright, alright, Li Qian has been through a lot these past few days, and the evolutions have exhausted him. I've received orders from the principal to send him back to the school for recuperation immediately."
President Fei physically blocked the others, acting as a bodyguard and clearing a path.
Although his reason was rather weak, no one dared to refute it.
At this moment, they wouldn't be foolish enough to leave a bad impression on Li Qian or Shazhou Beast University.
"If there's anything, you can contact Li Qian through Shazhou Beast University later."
After saying this, Li Qian followed President Fei, hurriedly leaving Kansai Beast Academy.
As soon as they left, a hovering car driven by Teacher Ge Yuming picked them up.
The group of four, including President Cong Mingshan, soon arrived at the Teleportation Center in Kuan City.
This time, they didn't plan to return by spaceship but instead intended to use the teleportation array directly.
At the same time, as Li Qian and President Fei drove their hovering car to the Kuan City Teleportation Center, on the top of the tallest building in Kansai Beast University, a fiery figure and a white figure stood against the wind, gazing in the direction of their departure.
