Outrageous Summoner - Chapter 28

Chapter 28 A Small Matter

“The Summoner’s Star is a special training program that Blue City is about to launch to develop the talents of Summoners,” the Director said. “This program is aimed at all bronze Summoners with Blue City household registration and under the age of thirty.

We would tailor a cultivation plan for every Summoner who participated in the plan, including card making formulas, materials, venue equipment that could be used for free, and opportunities for actual combat training.

The entire training lasted for about a year. During this period, the tuition fees were free and there was a certain amount of living allowance.

“The second place who participated in the assessment with you today, that child called Duan Wu, is preparing to participate in this plan. It’s a pretty good opportunity…”

At first, You Chu was quite tempted. Not only did this plan sound like a good resource, but it was also a good way to earn reputation points.

But when he heard “for a year,” he hesitated again.

According to the original plan, he was going to participate in the competition in a month’s time and try to get into Jiangdu Sorcerer University? This clearly conflicted with the training program the chief had mentioned.

Seeming to see You Chu’s hesitation, the director said gently, “Of course, there’s no hurry to make a decision on such matters. You can remember my contact details first. Go back and think about it in the next few days. It won’t be too late to make a decision then…”

As he spoke, the director’s secretary had already taken the initiative to go forward and exchange contact information with You Chu.

“By the way, I’m about to go back now…” The director thought for a moment. “Do you have any other plans today?”

“Nothing special,” You Chu said.

“Then why don’t you come with me? We’ll take a look at the training base. We’ll look at the environmental conditions first so we can help you make a decision.”

The secretary had excused herself to contact the driver as the chief spoke.

You Chu thought about it and felt that it would be a widow’s sigh for him to sit here and daydream-it was useless.

It was indeed better to go to that base and take a look before making a decision.

Hence, You Chu agreed and got into the car to follow the director to the planned training

base.

As he drove, he realized something was wrong.

The scenery outside the window, the route… Why did it look so familiar?

Wasn’t this the path he had just taken this morning?

Wait a minute, the training base that the director mentioned, could it be…

Sure enough, after a while, their car arrived at the entrance of Cen Xue’s training hall.

You Chu was speechless.

That was true. Previously, Cen Xue had said that they had the best facilities and resources in Blue City.

If a small city like Blue City did not have a proper Summoner school, it was only natural that the Blue City officials would cooperate with her family’s training center.

This made a lot of sense.

They got out of the car in the courtyard before the director said, “This is the training base chosen by the Summoner’s Star program.

This is also my residence. I am personally the curator of this training hall…” You Chu: “?”

Wait a minute, you said you were… what?

“Um, Mr. Director?” You Chu couldn’t help but ask.

“Tell me.”

“I don’t think I know your name…”

“Oh, my surname is Cen, Cen Haibo.” The director smiled amiably.

You Chu was speechless.

‘I’ve sent a message to my daughter on the way. She’s studying at the University of Jiangdu and is home on holiday,’ said Chief Cen politely. ‘She’ll be here in a moment and I’ll ask her to show you round the neighbourhood and get a feel for the facilities here.’

You Chu was speechless.

Not long after he finished speaking, Cen Xue appeared with a 36D helmet.

She looked surprised to see Cen Haibo and You Chu standing together, as if curious how the two of them had gotten together.

“Dad, you said you wanted me to show a newcomer around. Where is he?”

“This is the one, You Chu.” Director Cen introduced them to each other with a smile. “You Chu, this is my daughter, Cen Xue.”

You Chu and Cen Xue looked at each other and fell into a strange silence.

Director Cen: “?”

In the end, You Chu spoke first.

“Dad… Ah, no, Director Cen. Actually, I have something to tell you just now…”

IIII

A few minutes later, Chief Cen finally figured out what was going on.

“Natal spell spirit? Or is it of Epic quality?” Chief Cen looked at You Chu in surprise.

“He cracked the melody of the Dragon Bone Flute!?” Cen Xue looked at You Chu as if she had seen a ghost.

The thoughts that surfaced in father and daughter’s minds were surprisingly consistent

-This kid is outrageous!

She already knew that he was ridiculous, but she did not expect him to become more and more ridiculous!

Their gazes made You Chu feel embarrassed.

“It’s just luck. If I’m outstanding… I can’t say that I’m not outstanding. I’ll just be average…”

Cen Xue thought of something.

Wait a minute, Senior Luo Qing had instructed them to arrange for You Chu to enter the laboratory and be their junior.

He was already booked by Luo Qing. How could she let him be abducted under her watch?

‘Not even Father!’

Luo Qing was here first!

Cen Xue quickly pulled Director Cen to the side and began to explain the situation.

Director Cen understood. “I see. So it’s your Senior Luo Qing…”

Although Director Cen wanted to leave this rare genius in Blue City to develop, he had to admit that even if You Chu stayed in Blue City and gave him full resources, he would definitely not be able to compare to a top university like Jiangzhou University.

To You Chu, it was definitely better to go to Jiangshu University to develop his prospects.

Now that he knew the situation, even if You Chu decided to stay in Blue City, Director Cen might still persuade him to accept Luo Qing’s invitation.

But this also made Director Cen even more convinced that he was not mistaken.

Summoners are actually quite a talent-based path. It’s impossible for any country or organization to miss out on a genius, especially in the context of the current policy of great support. Geniuses are bound to receive resources wherever they go.

Director Cen already believed that this young man would definitely achieve extraordinary things in the future.

“Then how about this,” Chief Cen said after a moment’s reflection. “I’m in charge of the Summoner’s Star project. You’re in a special situation, so I can make separate arrangements for you.

I’ll still leave you a place in this program, but you don’t have to stay in the training hall for the training. You’ll be accepted at Jiang Shu University then, though you can go to school.

However, you can still enjoy the other benefits of the Summoner’s Star plan. This includes the card creating formulas and materials provided by the association. Then, if you can’t participate in other activities and teaching resources, I can make the decision to convert them into cash for you.

“In addition to the subsidies given to every student participating in the plan, they should be able to… I estimate… about two to three million?”

You Chu: “!”

‘Woc, is the chief that powerful?’

‘Chief, do you still need a son?’

In Cen Haibo’s opinion, You Chu’s future achievements would definitely not be low. In fact, his status might not be the same as before after he entered Jiangshu University.

However, You Chu happened to be in dire need of resources. Giving him resources now was undoubtedly a timely help. It could be considered a favor.

When You Chu developed in the future, he would have more resources and opportunities, and his horizons would naturally broaden. At that time, if he wanted to do him a favor with a mere two or three million, it would probably be far less valuable than now.

“Director Cen, you’re too polite.” You Chu thanked him and chuckled. “I originally wanted to repay the loan as soon as possible within a year after entering school. I didn’t expect to be able to pay it back so quickly…”

Cen paused. “A loan?”

“Oh, I loaned it,” Cen Xue explained. “Because You Chu is going to compete next month, he’s quite short of resources now. So I borrowed a million yuan from him in the name of the training hall…”

“We took a loan?” Chief Cen mused.

Therefore, he helped You Chu fight for these resources. In the end, after the money was transferred to his account, he had to transfer a million yuan to him to repay his debt?

It felt strange.

Hence, Director Cen waved his hand domineeringly. “It’s just a million yuan. It’s not a big deal. Forget about that bit of money. Just treat it as our training center’s private sponsorship. There’s no need to return it.”
