Chapter 110: Chapter 109: Demon Instructor

Translator: 549690339

As more and more spectators gathered around, Bai Qiucha seemed to realize his summoning display might’ve been a bit inappropriate. He summoned the Bone Dragon and quickly took off into the sky, Bai Qi trailing behind.

It’s over. The news is bound to spread like wildfire tomorrow. Hopefully, no obsessed fan girls will come knocking on my door.

Starting at the flickering flashlights below, Bai Qi sighed helplessly.

The Bone Dragon’s flight speed was swift, and they managed to reach Bai Manor in no time.

Bai Qiucha apologized somewhat regrettably: “I didn’t consider our surroundings earlier, but we should be able to talk freely here in my house. It’s safe from eavesdroppers.”

Practicing espionage movies in real life, are we?

Bai Qi said, “The Tower of Gratitude is essentially a rune learning tower. Its intrinsic value isn’t significant, so…”

“Not acceptable!”

Bai Qi was interrupted mid-sentence by Bai Qiucha’s stern refusal.

“I despise unfinished tasks. I refuse to allow a secret realm tower that I attempted yet failed to clear in my career!”

Wow, is it that serious? You sure are in for a headache now.

Looking at the stern-faced Bai Qiucha, Bai Qi patted him on the shoulder and said, “There’s no harm in a few failures in life. They can sometimes motivate you to learn further.”

“Think about it, if you clear the tower right away, would you still want to continue learning runes?”

“And moreover, if you keep dwelling on past failures, how different would it be from tying your own hands?”

Listening to Bai Qi’s words, Bai Qiucha felt like he was suddenly enlightened.

Indeed, his tenacity with learning runes has been fueled by his desire to clear the Tower of Gratitude.

If it wasn’t for his imminent breakthrough to the Four Stage and his inability to return to the Tower afterward, he wouldn’t have come looking for a shortcut from Bai Qi.

Thinking of this, a sudden clarity displayed itself on Bai Qiucha’s face. He removed a band from his left wrist, and the three Rune Marks on the back of his left hand instantly turned into four.

“Thank you. I should not have been so fixated…wait, what’s this?”

Bai Qiucha was just preparing to thank Bai Qi for his insight when Bai Qi handed over a small booklet to him.

“You wanted a shortcut, didn’t you? After much sorting, I have collected all the runes and their corresponding functionality in The Tower of Gratitude. You can quickly browse through them.”

What the hell!

You could’ve mentioned the shortcut sooner! Why all this nonsense?!

With twitching eyes, Bai Qiucha took a deep breath, forcing down the impulse to punch Bai Qi, while gazing at his left hand, which now permanently bore the fourth Rune Mark.

“Thankyou. But I might not need it anymore!”

Bai Qiucha pushed the booklet back to Bai Qi, who then noticed four Rune Marks on Bai Qiucha’s wrist.

He was probably too slow in his explanation, but no harm done, as his hard work had paid off.

Although Bai Qi wasn’t particularly close to Bai Qiucha, he could not bear to watch a genius youth wallow in vain regrets. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have bothered with the lengthy persuasion at all.

I am so kind.

Looking at the self-indulgent Bai Qi, Bai Qiucha found himself reassessing Bai Qi yet again.

This guy is truly unique.

Bai Qiucha glanced at Bai Qi and said, “I had initially planned to have a duel against your Wilting Dragon Lord. But I just broke through to the Four Stage and need time to adapt. So our duel will have to wait until the training camp.” “Training camp? Are you going too?”

The moment Bai Qi asked the question, he wished he could smack himself.

The Bai family was part of the Beast Master Association, with Bai Qiucha’s talent, there was no way he wasn’t going to join this training camp.

“Yup, we can have a real duel then.”

With a determined look on his face, Bai Qiucha said, “Now that your Wilting Dragon Lord and my Skeleton Dragon are Lord Level, we have more freedom during the duel.”

“Haha, we can discuss it when the time comes.”

Bai Qi scratched his head and asked, “By the way, can you tell me what the training camp is all about?”

Old Qin has prompted Bai Qi more than once to prepare for the training camp. If Bai Qi wasn’t curious, he’d be lying.

But Old Qin was too fond of playing tactical games and refused to spill the beans. A free Informer at hand was not something Bai Qi would pass on easily.

“It’s my first time as well, but from what I know, besides basic theoretical learning, secret realm exploration and real combat take precedence.” Secret realm exploration and real combat?

Wouldn’t that mean plenty of resources?

Bai Qi instantly perked up and said, “So, everything collected during the training is owned by the individual?”

“I believe so, but I can’t confirm until the training camp starts.”

“Good, I understand now.”

With a rough idea in mind, Bai Qi was about to bid Bai Qiucha goodbye when his phone started vibrating. It was Luo Xiang.

“Has he arrived already?”

Upon answering the call, Luo Xiang’s voice was fired out like a rapid machine gun blast.

“Bai Qi, I had an emergency and can’t accompany you to the headquarters. But rest assured as I’ve already booked your flight. It’s at one in the afternoon. Someone will be there to pick you up when you arrive. Be sure to be on time, as the person hates late comers.”

“Beep Beep Beep….”

The line went dead, and Bai Qi was left confused.

Is Brother Luo always this busy?

During the last visit to the Tower of Gratitude, he simply grabbed a Rune Dictionary from Professor Dong and ran off. This time, it was worse. He didn’t even show up in person.

With a leader like that, was he really not going to be screwed over in the future?

“Was that Brother Luo you were just talking to on the phone?”

Bai Qiucha, already a Four Stage Beast Master, couldn’t help but ask, her natural senses picking up on the voice on the phone.

“Yes, do you know him?”

“Of course, I do.”

Bai Qiucha nodded, saying, “Brother Luo is one of the rising talents in the Beast Master Association in recent years. He’s only in his twenties, but the number of Secret Realm Towers he has broken through is close to the triple digits.” The triple digits?

Who would’ve thought that Luo Xiang was that loaded?!

“My dad said you and Brother Luo Xiang both have the Breaking the Void talent. I believe you can achieve the same in the future,” same said Bai Qiucha. Bai Qi laughed, “I’ll take that as a good omen.”

Checking the time, he noted it was already noon.

“Damn, can’t Luo Xiang buy a later ticket?!”

Seeing this, Bai Qi hurriedly put away his phone, turned to Bai Qiucha and said, “Um, could you drop me off at the airport?”

They were on the outskirts of Gusu City, at least an hour’s drive from the airport. Hailing a cab, he surely wouldn’t make it in time.

“I was originally planning to challenge the Tower of Gratitude before proceeding to the headquarters. But since I can’t now, I’ll go with you,” said Bai Qiucha.

With that, she snapped her fingers, and their waiting butler quickly approached. After she whispered a few words in his ear, he hurried off.

“You’re coming too? But is there enough time to book a flight now?”

Bai Qiucha shook her head, “No need for that. We can just use my private jet.”

A private jet?

Don’t you and your father both travel by flying pets?

Bai Qi followed Bai Qiucha’s pointed finger, where a small plane was slowly rising from the ground. Through the glass of the cockpit, he vaguely saw the driver was the butler.

Does this old guy also know how to fly a plane?

Are all butlers so versatile nowadays…

The butler, who had just been in the cockpit, suddenly appeared in front of Bai Qi and Bai Qiucha, “Young master, the plane is ready. Shall we leave now?”

Bai Qiucha glanced at Bai Qi, and nodding after confirming he had no objections, said, “Let’s go now.”

The butler nodded, leading them onto the plane, before steering it directly northward.

Simultaneously, as they left Gusu City, Lu Yuan had already arrived at Bai Qi’s house. He quietly squatted by the door, waiting for Bai Qi.

“This time, I must have him modify my Ghost Bone Giant Tiger!”

Songlin City.

The Airport.

“Young master, Master Bai Qi, we’ve arrived,” said the butler, signaling for the two of them to disembark.

“We’re here already?”

Bai Qi glanced out the window at the unfamiliar scenery, curious.

Songlin City and Gusu City were located at the south and north of the Federation, respectively, quite a distance apart. So this was his first time visiting Songlin City.

“What are those six towers? They look somewhat like Secret Realm Towers,” Bai Qi looked out the window and immediately saw the six towers in the distance. Amidst a cluster of low-lying buildings, they were particularly conspicuous.

“That’s where the headquarters are – the Six Towers,” said the butler, nodding his head, “There is a no-fly zone around the Six Towers, so we can only dock at the airport first. Rest a bit while I arrange for a car.”

Bai Qiucha acknowledged with a nod, evidently accustomed to this routine. Bai Qi, however, remembered something, “Right, Luo Xiang told me he was going to have someone meet me. How should I contact him?”

Upon hearing this, the butler grinned, “If Luo Xiang requested it, it must be Master Zhang Shan. If Young Master Bai Qi doesn’t mind, I can help you in reaching out to him.”

“That would be great.”

According to Luo Xiang’s previous phone conversation, Zhang Shan was not an easy person to get along with. Since the butler knew him, Bai Qi spared himself the trouble.

But after dialing Zhang Shan’s number, the butler paused and looked over at Bai Qi, “I apologize, Master Bai Qi. It seems Master Zhang Shan has already arrived.”

“Um, alright.”

Bai Qi nodded, following the butler off the plane, immediately noticing his pick-up person – a stern-faced man with the subtly pinned Beast Master Association badge on his chest.

“Bai Qi?”

The stern-faced man also spotted Bai Qi approaching and directly inquired.

Straight to the point, unlike Xia Xuan and the others who could feign silence to give themselves a boost in dignity. Bai Qi was quite clear in his assessment: this guy was definitely born with the icy demeanor, you could even call it outright cold.

“Me, may I ask who you are?”

In light of Luo Xiang’s previous warning and the butler’s demeanor, Bai Qi was careful not to be impolite.

“My name is Zhang Shan. For the coming half a year, I’ll be one of your tutors. So, I expect you to address me as Coach!” Zhang Shan gave Bai Qi a chilly stare, “Now, student Bai Qi, get in the car!”

He’s my tutor for the next six months?

By the looks of it, he’s a classic drill sergeant… the next six months won’t be easy…
