Chapter 66: Su Ping? What a Familiar Name! (First Update)
Chapter 66: Su Ping? What a Familiar Name! (First Update)
On the second floor of the Breeder Association's main building were various meeting rooms, offices, lecture halls, and classrooms.
However, the breeding research labs were not located in this main building.
So, in reality, the main building only had two floors.
But despite the limited number of floors, the vastness of the second floor could be inferred from the spacious lobby on the first floor.
Indeed, if it weren't for Zheng Yong's guidance, Su Ping might have gotten lost trying to find his way up here.
Zheng Yong had mentioned that he was quite familiar with the Breeder Association, and it seemed he wasn't boasting; he genuinely knew his way around.
Zheng Yong led the way, navigating through the twists and turns, and brought Su Ping to the entrance of a classroom on the second floor.
Surprisingly, unlike the other floors that were sparsely populated, there were a few people gathered at the classroom entrance.
As the classroom door opened, several individuals who appeared to be of a certain age entered with smiles on their faces, shortly after Su Ping's arrival.
The younger Beastmasters sitting outside the classroom door watched these figures enter with a mix of excitement and envy.
"Alright, let's wait here for a bit."
Zheng Yong sat down on one of the seats outside the classroom, which were arranged in rows.
Su Ping blinked,
He wasn't foolish and quickly realized that the seats outside were for the Wolf Companion Beastmasters who were waiting to be selected.
Those who had just entered the classroom were the breeders waiting for Vice President Liu's lecture.
Although they had all arrived together, their identities and statuses clearly separated them.
It made sense; even a junior breeder's status was far superior to that of an ordinary Beastmaster. After all, anyone who reached the age of eighteen and formed a contract with their first companion beast could be considered a Beastmaster.
However, becoming a recognized breeder by the association was an incredibly challenging feat.
Su Ping didn't pay much attention to these distinctions; sitting outside was perfectly fine, as he didn't know anyone in the Breeder Association anyway.
Going inside would only mean a boring wait.
It was better to chat with Zheng Yong.
Unfortunately, just as Su Ping had taken a seat, a voice called out from behind him:
"Su Ping?"
Turning around, he saw Sun Chaoju, whom he hadn't seen in a few days, standing not far behind him. Beside Sun Chaoju was a man who seemed slightly younger, looking at Su Ping with surprise.
Su Ping had slightly changed his opinion of Sun Chaoju, the intermediate breeder from Shuhua City, after their previous encounter. Smiling, he nodded:
"Breeder Sun, you're here too?"
"Of course! How could I miss Vice President Liu's lecture? What are you doing sitting out here? Come on in, and I'll introduce you to some friends in the Breeder Association. Let them meet the famous Su Ping, the talk of the town these days."
Sun Chaoju spoke with a hint of teasing, but he was speaking the truth.
The ordinary Beastmasters in the lobby on the first floor were one thing, but among the breeders listed in the Breeder Association, very few hadn't heard of Su Ping.
The reason was simple: he was incredibly young.
Although Linzhou City was vast, in specialized circles, there were no secrets.
The bet between Sun Chaoju and Su Ping had even drawn the attention of Vice President Liu, who acted as a witness. It was impossible to keep such a matter hidden.
In the upper echelons of the breeder circles in Linzhou City and even Jianghai Province, everyone knew that Vice President Liu's disciple, Sun Chaoju, had lost to a recent graduate in breeding Forest Wolves! And he had conceded with utmost respect.
This time, Vice President Liu's wolf companion course was titled "On the Direction of Wolf Companion Evolution and Their Growth Potential and Subsequent Cultivation." This course was relatively advanced, and even though Vice President Liu was an excellent lecturer, it wasn't something that an ordinary breeder could easily comprehend.
Beast evolution is one of the most crucial topics in a breeder's curriculum.
The reason why so many people came this time was partly because they wanted to see for themselves the young genius breeder who was currently making waves in Linzhou City.
Seeing Sun Chaoru's eager invitation, Su Ping also felt helpless and glanced at the somewhat surprised Zheng Yong, saying, "I have something to do, so I'll take my leave first."
Zheng Yong took a cautious look at Sun Chaoru.
He didn't know Sun Chaoru personally, but the badge on the man's chest made it clear that he was a Senior Breeder.
Zheng Yong quickly responded, "It's nothing, go ahead."
Su Ping nodded and followed Sun Chaoru towards the classroom, while Sun Chaoru walked and talked, "Su Ping, this is Breeder Mu Hang. Don't let his younger age fool you; he's also a Senior Breeder, but he specializes in Shadow Wolf breeding, which is rare in Jianghai Province..."
"So, you're Breeder Mu. I've heard of you before."
"Haha... Old Sun is teasing me. Who can be as young as Su? In my opinion..."
The voice gradually faded as they entered the classroom, leaving Zheng Yong outside with a puzzled expression.
Just then, a young beastmaster who was clearly acquainted with Zheng Yong approached him, "Old Zheng, who is that guy? He seems to be quite familiar with those two breeders."
Zheng Yong glanced at the speaker and also looked perplexed.
How would he know who that guy was? Who knows who you bump into when you randomly spar in the lobby downstairs? Moreover, he had never seen this stranger before.
Although they seemed to get along, it wouldn't be appropriate to inquire about someone's background upon their first meeting, would it?
Zheng Yong opened his mouth to say, "I don't know, but I guess he might be related to that breeder somehow."
He wasn't too sure himself.
However, seeing how close that man was with the breeder, it seemed like they were quite close? Thinking of this, Zheng Yong felt a bit envious. Having a relative or friend who is a breeder would bring unimaginable benefits to a beastmaster's future development.
It would save him from walking down many detours.
Although Zheng Yong had some connections in the Breeder Association, otherwise, he wouldn't have been qualified to come to Vice President Liu's class as a 'model'.
But compared to a Senior Breeder, he was still lacking in many ways.
"What's his name?"
The young man beside him asked curiously.
Zheng Yong thought for a moment and replied, "Su Ping, I think his name is Su Ping."
"Su Ping? That name sounds familiar, like I've heard it somewhere before."
Zheng Yong glanced at the man suspiciously, did he also find the name familiar?
"What are you still talking about? Get ready, President Liu has arrived."
