Chapter 729: Ivana
Chapter 729: Ivana
On the Yulinton University campus website, there is a page similar to the Task Center where students can post missions for others to pick up. However, only Yulinton University students and employed mentors can post and select missions. It's essentially an internal Task Center.
Qiao Sang didn't directly post a mission but instead searched for historical records related to Spatial Lockdown missions. This feature allows you to quickly filter out people capable of completing your mission and then precisely target them to contact directly. Whether they accept the mission or not is up to them.
Qiao Sang operated the system briefly, and soon, historical records related to Spatial Lockdown appeared on the page.
[Need a Psychic-Type Beast that has mastered Spatial Lockdown to accompany a trip to Sector 13 in the Second Sector. Can go solo, includes Energy Pills, and a Beastmaster can also join, with meals and accommodation provided. Duration: one week, 30 credits. If it exceeds the time, it can be calculated at 10 credits per day.]

...
[Seeking a Beastmaster to provide one-on-one training for Spatial Lockdown. No time limit, 500 credits, can prepay 200 credits.]
[Status: Completed]
[Completed by: Beast News Department, Ivana Alba]
Qiao Sang's gaze fixed on the name Ivana Alba. 500 credits to teach Spatial Lockdown... She currently had 478 credits and could prepay 200 credits for the lessons. She could earn a few dozen more credits during the period to cover the remaining amount. Although it was expensive, it would be worth it if she could learn the skill. With this thought, Qiao Sang didn't hesitate and clicked on Ivana Alba's name. The page quickly displayed the relevant information.
...
Beast News Department.
A classroom with a giant holographic screen.
"Mark didn't accept your interview?" a young man in a gray hoodie asked the brown-haired woman beside him.
"No." The brown-haired woman put down her documents and sighed deeply. "He's just too difficult. I've never met anyone as challenging as him. I offered 300 credits, but he still didn't accept."
The young man waved his hand. "Geniuses have their pride. After all, he's been on the Beastmaster Academy's Top 100 List for two years. It's understandable."
"These Beastmaster Academy guys have the worst tempers. I'm a graduate student now, technically their senior, and they still won't give me any face." Ivana recalled her undergraduate days when she was repeatedly rejected by several Beastmaster Academy students and couldn't help but complain.
The young man thought for a moment, operated his computer, and pushed it in front of Ivana, suggesting, "Why don't you interview someone else?"
Ivana glanced at the content on the screen and her lips twitched. "A first-year Freshman in the Beastmaster Program has three General-Class Beast Companions? Do you really believe that?"
"I do", the young man nodded. "You weren't around the last few days, so you don't know. This Freshman, Qiao Sang, was assigned to the Elite Dormitory Area at the start of the school year. She single-handedly challenged all the Freshmen in the Beastmaster Program during the freshman evaluation and won."
"I looked into her familiars. She has three familiars from Blue Star and one from our planet. The Icechill mentioned on the forum is indeed one of her familiars. The photo shows its Evolution Form, which is accurate."
Ivana immediately grasped the key point. "She has four familiars as a first-year?!"
The young man nodded. "Everyone in the news department knows about this, except for those who were away like you."
"Even if the content on the Forum is fake, she has already cultivated two General-Class Beast Companions..." Ivana muttered.
"Exactly." The young man nodded.
"I personally think her interview value is greater than Mark's."
Ivana hesitated, "But Mark..."
The young man interrupted, "What if the content on the Forum is true?"
If it were true, then Qiao Sang's interview value would far surpass Mark's... Ivana thought for a moment and said,
"Qiao Sang is also in the Beastmaster Program, and her talent is so extraordinary. It should be quite difficult to interview her."
The young man smiled, "You can try. After all, she's only a freshman. Many people are most approachable when they first start school."
Ivana suddenly stood up, "You make a good point! I'll go find her right now!"
At that moment, a clear voice rang out, "Excuse me, is Senior Ivana Alba here?"
Ivana turned around and was taken aback.
Why did the girl at the door look so much like the one in the Forum's photo?
"Are you Qiao Sang from the Beastmaster Program?" the young man asked, his tone slightly hesitant.
Qiao Sang was a bit surprised, "You know me?"
Ivana: "!!!"
Young man: "!!!"
"You two chat. I have some things to do." After confirming that the person was indeed Qiao Sang, the young man left the classroom on his own.
Ivana looked at the black-haired girl in front of her, a bit nervous, "What can I do for you?"
On the school's official website, the profiles of those who had completed tasks included their achievements, current major or profession, and a profile photo. Qiao Sang recognized that the person in front of her was the one she was looking for.
"I want you to help me learn the Spatial Lockdown Skill", Qiao Sang said directly.
Ivana looked troubled. She was too busy to have time to teach Spatial Lockdown.
This Skill wasn't something that could be taught in just a few weeks.
But when she saw the girl in front of her, she remembered the girl's various advantages and steeled herself, asking,
"Is it true that your Icechill has Evolved into a General-Class Pet Beast?"
No wonder the Beast News Department was known for its quick information. The Evolution happened less than a day ago, and they already knew... Qiao Sang was secretly impressed and nodded, "Yes, it's true."
She wasn't particularly surprised that others knew about it. After all, two students from the Beastmaster Alliance knew about Lulu's Evolution.
These days, news spread in an instant.
Hearing this, Ivana took a deep breath and said seriously,
"I'll help you learn Spatial Lockdown if you agree to an interview!"
She paused and added, "However, there's no time limit, and I can't guarantee that I can teach it to you."
Qiao Sang, upon hearing this, immediately held back her offer to pay 500 credits as a reward.
Interview her? What was there to interview? Qiao Sang was puzzled but didn't press the matter to prevent the other party from changing their mind.
Just as Qiao Sang was about to ask about the teaching schedule, Ivana, seeing that the other party hadn't immediately responded, steeled herself and said,
"Just agree to an exclusive interview within a year, and I'll not only help you learn Spatial Lockdown but also give you 100, no, 200 credits!"
Qiao Sang was silent for two seconds, "Deal."
Ivana breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "Let's add each other as friends, and we can set a time for the interview later."
Qiao Sang took out her mobile phone and asked,
"When can we start with Spatial Lockdown?"
Ivana thought for a moment and said,
"You can give me the familiar you want to learn Spatial Lockdown with, or we can set a fixed time. I'll see if I can arrange to meet you."
"From 7 PM to 10 PM, how does that sound?" Qiao Sang asked.
Ivana thought for a moment and said,
"The next two weeks should work. After that, it might be difficult. I'll come to teach you for the next two weeks, and we can set another time after that."
"Alright." Qiao Sang added the contact information and put down her mobile phone, smiling, "Pleasure doing business with you."
She hadn't expected to save on the 500 credits and even earn 200 more.
"Likewise." Ivana smiled as well.
It seems Cyril was right. No matter who it is, freshmen are always the most approachable.

Ivana sighed, thinking about the many other freshmen she had interviewed and how many more she still needed to interview.
