Chapter 17: De Yuan Acted Shamelessly

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After watching an endless number of team battles, Lin Xiaoxiao stood up and exercised her neck. A feeling of fatigue came over her, and she could not help but sigh. She would be exhausted to the bones every once in a year.

As a De Yuan College teacher, she was always concerned about the annual enrollment.

This was especially so in recent years. The quality of students had declined significantly, and the recruited students either had bad bloodlines, poor talents, or various other problems. They could not make it big.

Lin Xiaoxiao had always been worried about this. That was why she would personally come here every year during the enrollment exam to recruit good students.

Fortunately, all was not in vain. She finally saw a decent one this year.

She was confident that if Chen An joined De Yuan, she could train him into an excellent Beast Tamer.

Perhaps, there was no need for all this. He might not even need the college’s or teachers’ assistance, and he would be able to develop and grow at the fastest speed.

At the thought of this, Lin Xiaoxiao’s lips could not help but curl upward, silently repeating his name to herself.

At the same time, she also made a decision. In any case, no matter what the price, she must get Chen An!

She stretched, thinking that she could finally rest when a familiar person walked over. “Teacher Lin, please go back to the college. De Yuan will hold a meeting to discuss this year’s admissions.”

As a tutor, the other party spoke in a very polite tone. However, Lin Xiaoxiao was accustomed to it. After all, there was still a difference between different teachers. “What is the meeting about? This is the last step in the enrollment process. What else can we discuss?”

All she had in her head right now was to recruit Chen An into De Yuan College quickly. She did not care about anything else.

“Let’s go there. The meeting seems to be related to the person you’ve been fancying…”

Lin Xiaoxiao’s interest was piqued. “It’s really troublesome. Those old fogeys always like to trouble themselves with useless stuff.”

The De Yuan College’s interior was magnificent as every building was grand and imposing.

Lin Xiaoxiao stepped into the conference room, lazily. The light inside was a little dim. There was a huge black round table in the center, and people were already sitting all around it.

Others seemed dissatisfied with her late arrival. They coughed twice, urging her to take a seat as soon as possible.

Lin Xiaoxiao stepped forward and walked to her place. A girl was standing behind the seat—she was in the same red dress and golden accessories as herself.

“Yingxue? Why did you come to such a dull and boring meeting?” Lin Xiaoxiao was surprised. Like herself, her little niece hated trouble the most and would rather not be there.

Lin Yingxue nodded and greeted her. “Auntie, I can’t help but not come for what we are discussing today.”

Lin Xiaoxiao understood right away, and she whispered, “Don’t be afraid. These horrible old fogeys are simply not flexible. Stay here and keep silent.”

At a glance, the people seated came from all departments. There were the tutors and management of De Yuan College, as well as people from the major Beast Tamer clans.

“The formation is very unusual. I would like to ask what is so important that makes everyone so interested?” Lin Xiaoxiao’s charming voice echoed.

“You should be ashamed. If not for your clan that caused so many troubles, it wouldn’t be so embarrassing now!”

Lin Xiaoxiao was displeased, and she immediately rebutted, “Why is it embarrassing? I don’t feel embarrassed. Instead, we have a rare genius. I am very pleased.”

The other party refused to give up. “You call that a genius? That is obviously a good-for-nothing that has no bloodline!”

“Bloodline? What’s the use of bloodline? There are so many students with good bloodlines in the college, and there is no lack of bad ones. You should be able to see for yourself.”

Lin Xiaoxiao was telling the truth—a bloodline was indeed very important in the choice of a Beast Tamer.

She used to have this perception in the past, believing that people with good bloodlines would definitely have good talents. These people would improve faster than others through continuously working hard.

However, after seeing Chen An, she did not think so anymore.

“Our De Yuan Academy is full of outstanding descendants of major clans, and there is a very small number of people who joined us and have good bloodlines and talents. Look at what you have done now. Due to your Glittering Fiery Feather clan’s proposal, De Yuan College will have one more good-for-nothing. In the future, he will inevitably bring shame to the college!”

Lin Xiaoxiao was unhappy upon hearing this. “I think Yingxue’s suggestion of not testing the bloodline is very good. Unlike some clans, they insist that they have good bloodlines and even sent one of them into the college. Presently, the said person is still among the bottom and couldn’t even summon the family’s Combat Beast.”

The man was fuming. The descendant that Lin Xiaoxiao was talking about was from his clan. Nevertheless, he was helpless as she was telling the truth, and he could not rebut.

The atmosphere became awkward. The person sitting at the highest position was the De Yuan College’s dean. “We originally thought that if we didn’t test the bloodline, De Yuan would gain more respect and earn a good reputation for fairness and non-discrimination. We didn’t expect that someone without a bloodline would enter the final assessment. It’s indeed wrong!”

The people in the conference room nodded and agreed.

Bloodline testing had been the rule since ancient times. How could the rule change for one person?

“We have checked. Chen An’s parents are indeed Beast Tamers. But he has not shown his bloodline, and he has only seen a sudden improvement in recent days. It must be due to cheating or some other indecent methods…”

“There is his beast, as well. We have never seen such a beast before, and it executed the skills of other beasts. He must have used some unknown means to achieve it.”

“If such a person is allowed to enter De Yuan, how will our college cultivate powerful Beast Tamers in the future?”

The dean nodded, and everyone reached an agreement.

Lin Yingxue hurried to speak but was stopped by Lin Xiaoxiao.

“If so, aren’t you slapping yourself in the face? Previously, we said we would not test for bloodlines, but now we are going to drive him away because of his bloodline. Isn’t that a joke?”

The dean denied. “No, we should not be blatant about this matter so as not to damage the reputation of the college.”

Lin Xiaoxiao frowned. “What does the dean mean?”

“We don’t have to concern ourselves over this. Naturally, Chen An should be eliminated as it should be.” Before the dean could say anything, a young male voice could be heard, his tone frivolous.

Like the Lin clan, Glittering Fiery Feather, the major clans seated here were named as Beast Tamer clans as each of them had a symbolic beast.

This kind of beast was often of a higher grade than ordinary beasts, and all the family descendants also used the same kind of beasts. This gradually became a symbol of the clan.

The man who was talking had silver scales patterns on his blue clothes. He belonged to the Icicles River Carp clan.
