Chapter 55: Secret Realm? Qin Xiaoxue's Departure and Agreement (Part 2)
Chapter 55: Secret Realm? Qin Xiaoxue's Departure and Agreement (Part 2)
Sun Chaoru and Liu Fubu didn't stay for long. After a brief discussion about the cultivation of the Lin Wolf, they left, with Liu Fubu reminding Su Ping to remember to attend the lecture later.
Su Ping also inquired about the specific time and confirmed his attendance.
Liu Fubu is a senior breeder specializing in wolf cultivation, a rare expert in Dragon Nation.
They are renowned figures in their respective regions.
Learning from their theoretical knowledge can only benefit Su Ping's beast cultivation studies.
Qin Xiaoxue, on the other hand, wasn't in a hurry to leave. After the two left, she patted Su Ping's shoulder and said, "Good job, kid! You've made me proud! Those two old men didn't trust me at first, and they almost told me I was being scammed. But now, seeing your progress, they can't deny it. Xiaoxue, I have something to ask of you."
Su Ping didn't rush to leave and study the acceleration spell and the evolution method of the Thousand Wood Wolf. Instead, he stayed, wanting to ask Qin Xiaoxue something.
He didn't ask directly but smiled and said, "Now that I have the acceleration spell, I'm feeling more confident. How about keeping Woodhead for a while longer so I can breed the acceleration spell into you?"
His confident question was unexpectedly rejected by Qin Xiaoxue, "No need. The summer break is almost over. I'll pack up and return to the Magic Capital in a couple of days."
Hearing this, even Su Ping was slightly taken aback. Indeed, after more than half a month, he had grown accustomed to having Qin Xiaoxue around.
But he soon smiled and said, "Alright. Safe travels, and don't forget to message me when you reach the Magic Capital."
Qin Xiaoxue turned her head and said, "Sure. And when Woodhead evolves, can I witness it personally?"
Su Ping seemed to have remembered something and blurted out the question.
Qin Xiaoxue nodded, "Of course, you can come when the time comes, or I'll return to Linzhou if I have the time."
"By the way, your talent is in the Beast Master's Home, right?" Qin Xiaoxue asked.
Su Ping nodded, "Yes, what about it?"
"Nothing," Qin Xiaoxue said, not elaborating further.
Su Ping didn't inquire further, as it was time to get to the main topic, "I think I understand why Dong Muchun wants to acquire your home."
As Qin Xiaoxue spoke, she suddenly turned her head towards him, her eyes filled with curiosity. "What reason?"
Among all the people he knew, the only person Su Ping could trust was Qin Xiaoxue, whom he had only met for a little over ten days.
Su Ping didn't hide anything and recounted the events of the previous night to Qin Xiaoxue.
When he mentioned the ripples in the space, Qin Xiaoxue's expression became one of understanding. "Secret Realm? So that's it!"
Then, Qin Xiaoxue looked at Su Ping with a complex expression. "Su Ping, do you know the value of a Secret Realm? You just told me about it like that?"
Looking at Qin Xiaoxue at this moment, Su Ping thought to himself, 'If it weren't for you, I wouldn't even know what a Secret Realm is.'
Su Ping looked into Qin Xiaoxue's eyes and said sincerely, "I trust you."
Sincerity was his ultimate skill.
Qin Xiaoxue was taken aback, and under Su Ping's gaze, for the first time in her life, her cheeks turned red. Without thinking, she quickly turned her head, and in a serious tone, she spoke rapidly:
"A Secret Realm is an unclaimed Beastmaster's space left behind by a powerful Beastmaster after their death. The basic Beastmaster's Academy doesn't have corresponding courses about it, and only the advanced academies will inform students about it.
Secret Realms are extremely rare, precious, and dangerous. Some may contain the Beastmaster's legacy, including descendants of their beasts, and various resources.
In Dragon Nation, there's a special organization called the Heavenwatchers, whose duty is to detect Secret Realm appearances across Dragon Nation to prevent powerful beasts from harming other Beastmasters.
However, if a Secret Realm appears on private property, the owner has the right to handle it as they wish. They can choose to develop it themselves, hand it over to the Heavenwatchers, or even sell it to others."
Qin Xiaoxue spoke rapidly, taking a deep breath after finishing. Then, she continued, "Su Ping, regarding your Secret Realm, I can't give you advice, but rest assured, if you don't want to sell it, no one can force you!"
After saying this, Qin Xiaoxue suddenly stood up as if possessed, grabbing the wooden figure that let out a cry of pain, and rushed out the door.
Su Ping was so surprised by her sudden, energetic departure that he didn't react in time. But just as he was wondering why Qin Xiaoxue had left without explanation, she returned, holding the wooden figure that was almost out of breath and had rolled its eyes.
With flushed cheeks, she stood at the reception room's door, looking at a bewildered Su Ping. "Su Ping, you must work hard for the Professional Beastmaster Exam a year from now! It's crucial! So, you need to improve your strength now! I'll be waiting for you to take part!"
"?"
Su Ping was even more bewildered, and just as he was wondering about what Qin Xiaoxue had said, she disappeared without a trace.
He thought for a long while about her final words.
What did any of that mean?
And why would she wait for him to take the Professional Beastmaster Exam?
She had already enrolled in the Megalopolis Beastmaster Advanced Academy, so why would she wait for him to take some exam? It didn't seem likely that she hadn't taken it herself.
Besides, even if she hadn't, the exam was in Jianghai Province, while she was in Megalopolis. How could she possibly wait for him?
Su Ping's face was a mix of suspicion and bewilderment. Indeed, at times, Miss Qin's mind didn't seem to function well.
But suddenly, Su Ping stiffened, jumped up from the sofa, and in quick strides, he reached the entrance of his Heart of Wood Breeding Base and shouted, "You haven't paid yet!"
However, there was no sign of Qin Xiaoxue at the door.
At this moment, Su Ping once again doubted himself. Was Miss Qin pretending to be simple-minded? Her behavior didn't seem to match that at all.
Shaking his head, Su Ping didn't bother to care anymore. The help Qin Xiaoxue had given him was far beyond what money could buy.
Right now, the most important thing was undoubtedly his spoils of war.
Su Ping took out the USB drive, his eyes gleaming with excitement.
