Starting With Contract Pets

Chapter 114: Wait For Death

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Brother, be careful and pay attention to your safety!” shouted Su Yue.

“Don’t worry; just inform our parents for me.” Su Bai nodded and walked out with the cub and the Mewling Fox.

His other pets were in his contract book. The Little Tyrant was too big and ostentatious to walk around with, and although the Little Bloodworm did not look the part, it was still a blood pet. Hence, it was safest to place it in his contract book.

In town, he waited for the bus that would take him to the club of Cannes’ juvenile team.

Soon, a bus drove up and stopped in front of him.

“Let’s go,” said Su Bai. He then led his pets onto the bus.

“Howl!”

“Hing...”

After getting on the bus, he found that Chen Ruoxue was also on it with her parents.

“Hey, are you also going to the city?” He showed surprise on his face.

“No, I’m going to An Cheng.” The girl shook her head casually, showing no signs that they were in cahoots.

“Oh, are they your parents? Uncle, aunt, hello.” Su Bai pretended to be an ordinary classmate and greeted the two adults.

“Hello.” The parents smiled in response. They then turned to ask their daughter, “Is he your classmate?”

“Yes, he’s Su Bai, the strongest in our grade. He’s the one who snatched my first place, but I’ll win it back.” Chen Rouxue deliberately showed an unhappy expression.

“Haha! Don’t mind her. Our daughter is just insensible.” Mother Chen glared at her daughter sharply and then turned to Su Bai.

“It’s alright; she can’t win against me, anyway.” He shook his head.

Mother Chen: “...”

Father Chen: “...”

Are kids these days all so blunt?

Chen Rouxue glared fiercely at her boyfriend when her parents were not paying attention. He was simply doing it on purpose.

Ignoring his girlfriend, Su Bai continued chatting with her parents. He talked about his family situation, how hard he was studying, and how he had even obtained a trainer certificate at a young age.

He did not directly mention it, but when his girlfriend’s parents took the initiative to ask, he admitted that the manor they mentioned belonged to his family. In fact, he also had the beginner cultivation certificate they mentioned.

The two adults were beyond shocked. It turned out that the new huge mountain villa in town was constructed by Su Bai’s family, and he had even obtained a junior trainer certificate at such a young age. Not only was he training hard every day, he was even good at talking and was such a good role model.

“Ruoxue, you should communicate more with him in school. You can also train together if it’s possible. One is marked by the company they keep, and being with excellent people will definitely make you better.”

The adults smiled and instructed their daughter. At the same time, they warmly invited the boy to come over to their house whenever he was free.

“I don’t wanna play with him.” Chen Ruoxue glared at Su Bai and raised her chin proudly.

“This lass is too spoiled...”

“It’s alright. She performs very well in school...” He quickly praised his girlfriend.

When they heard a good student praise their daughter, both adults were assured of her hard work at school. They gazed at her fondly, feeling sorry for their hard working daughter. They had really misunderstood her. It was not that she had not worked hard enough; it was just that her opponent was too strong.

They originally thought that she had not taken the first place because she had not worked hard enough, but Su Bai’s confirmation made them feel very guilty.

“Uncle, aunt, this is my stop. I’ll take my leave now. Goodbye, Chen Rouxue.”

Su Bai smiled warmly and gave his girlfriend one final look. I can only help you until this point! He then slipped out of the car. The girl twisted her head and did not look at him.

In fact, he had guessed why his girlfriend’s parents enrolled her in a training class. It was probably because they thought that Chen Ruoxue had regressed in her studies.

After all, she had always been first, but this time she was demoted to second place.

There was no choice. This was the status quo. Modern parents valued their children’s academic performances so much that they did not understand them and did not know how stressful it was to be students.

Sometimes, the student had obviously worked hard but just could not surpass their peers.

Learning actually stemmed from having talent, and hard work could not make up for certain things.

Su Bai felt like it was better to clear Chen Rouxue of this misunderstanding if he had the chance to. Judging from her expression in the bus earlier, it was obvious that she was still frustrated with her parents.

As soon as he arrived at the club, he received a message from his girlfriend telling him to be careful. Smiling slightly, he went into the manager’s office to find Li Kang.

“Manager Li, I’m here to collect the certificate. I want to go to the monster wilderness.”

He knocked on the door and walked in to explain his intentions.

Li Kang stopped his work, glanced up at him, and said faintly, “The certificate hasn’t been processed yet. Go back and wait for now.”

“Why’s that so? Didn’t you say that it’ll be done within a week?” He frowned and asked.

“If I said that it hasn’t, then it hasn’t. As for when it’ll be processed, I’ll notify you at that time. You must abide by the rules in the club and understand who has the final say here.”

Li Kang spoke impatiently. He had seen this youth’s background and reckoned that he was just a poor lad. It was his blessing to be able to join the club and he must be taught a lesson if he did not follow the rules.

“Do you mean to say that you’re not gonna issue me a certificate? Is this your or the whole club’s intention?” asked Su Bai in a deep voice. As expected, verbal promises held no value.

“To tell you the truth, that’s indeed so. What’s wrong with us not issuing you a certificate?” Li Kang sneered. “If you beg me, maybe next year you’ll have a chance to go to the monster wilderness for a few days.

“Don’t think that it’s very impressive to pass ninety stages. I don’t care how strong you are, you’d better hold your head low. If you provoke me and make me unhappy, your pet might one day be scrapped from overtraining.”

As Li Kang spoke, a golden contract book opened to reveal a black Skeleton Ape on the ground. The pet exuded the powerful aura of a commander.

Both the cub and the baby fox assumed fighting stances, ready to attack at any time.

“You must understand that I have the final say here. Listen to me and you’ll definitely have a chance to go into the monster wilderness,” said the manager in a condescending voice.

“Let’s go, guys.” Su Bai glanced at the man and turned to leave.

Li Kang showed a look of disdain when the boy left. He treated different people with different attitudes, and a normal civilian like Su Bai could not make trouble for him.

The only reason he stayed in this shabby Cannes club was to make money by selling the spots to enter the monster wilderness. Why should he give that privilege to the boy when it would not make him money? What would he use to train his pets?

“Did you ask for a certificate to enter the monster wilderness?”

Zhao Li asked when Su Bai came out.

“Yes, but not only did he refuse to issue me one, he even threatened me.” He shrugged. “Did anyone in the team receive a certificate yet?”

“I don’t think so. The benefits of those who have no background have all been swallowed up by him.

“Other than the water-fire duo, none of us has it. Wang Tao’s pet was even injured. According to my covert observations and inquiries over the past few days, this kind of thing has been happening for more than a year or two. It has always been the case that most players’ allowances and benefits are swallowed.

“There’s nowhere to go to report, and even if the report is successful, there’s no evidence,” said Zhao Li angrily. They all came here with hopes of winning the championship in the national team, but who knew that they would enter such a place?

Unfortunately, there was nothing they could do about it.

Su Bai remained silent and calm.

Zhao Li pulled him aside and continued saying angrily, “That’s not the worst thing. What’s truly worst is that director doing unspeakable deeds. When I went to find Coach Yu yesterday, I saw her being pulled into the office by Director Liu.

“I also heard from the Li sisters that the director and the manager had given them inappropriate hints and even tried to keep them back at a singing party.

“We’ve decided to withdraw collectively from the team. Let’s not stay in this kind of place. Since we can’t provoke them, can’t we just avoid them?”

The boy said indignantly.

Who could have imagined that a place where dreams converged would actually turn out to be a rotten nest where filth gathered.

“I’m going to report it first; maybe I’ll succeed,” said Su Bai after thinking for a while. He felt disgusted and wondered how many people’s innocence had been ruined because of them.

“Alright. You can give it a try. I’ll add you into our group; everyone else other than the water-fire twins is in it.”

Zhao Li said helplessly. He had no high hopes of reporting these people since he had already tried doing so.

“Okay, thank you.” Su Bai nodded.

He took out his mobile phone and joined the group. He then sent a message, detailing what he had experienced, to his senior brother.

Liu Xinghe: “I already heard about this matter. I was about to tell our master; I just didn’t expect things to be so severe. D*mn it. You can rest assured that this’ll be resolved quickly.”

“Thank you, senior.”

After sending the message, Su Bai hurriedly left the club and went to the pet center. The club was about to descend into chaos; it would be bad if those people took a bite at him in retaliation.

...

“Hello, Director Liu. What brings you here?”

At noon, Li Kang was about to get up to eat when he saw the director outside. He immediately smiled and greeted the man.

Slap!

The director walked in and furiously slapped him thrice on the face without saying a word. The slaps were so forceful that Li Kang was beaten to the point that blood gushed out of his mouth.

“What the f*ck, Liu Yong! What are you doing?” Li Kang was furious. He was still irritated by what had happened earlier, but this guy came up and slapped him without warning. Was he a big shot because he was the director?

“What the f*ck...”

Liu Yong was still furious and kicked Li Kang a few times, simply wishing to kill this b*st*rd right here.

“F*cking hit me again if you can!”

Li Kang directly released his Skeleton Ape, which stared fiercely at Liu Yong as it assumed a fighting stance.

“Do you know what stupid thing you had done? You idiot, wait for your death!”

A violent killing intent emerged in Liu Yong’s eyes, and he really wanted to kill this fool.

“What the hell is it?” Li Kang was a little afraid now.

“What is it? Our secret has been exposed! Someone reported us to a place we couldn’t gain access, and the people from the pet bureau are already on their way here. Not only are we finished, all those people involved in this matter are as good as goners, too! You can just wait for your death!”

Liu Yong scolded and cursed at this young man in a resentful voice.

“No way! Only the water-fire duo has some kind of background. The others are all ordinary citizens. How could such a thing happen?” Li Kang was dumbfounded.

“How the hell should I know? You f*cking think about it by yourself!” Liu Yong roared in fury, his eyes filling with murderous intent.

“Could it be Su Bai? He has no background, though? I’ve already done a background check on him.” Li Kang was completely nonplussed.

“It doesn’t matter if it’s that boy; just give him a call and ask!” Liu Yong regained his composure and yelled furiously.

“O-Okay...” Li Kang also started panicking. If the pet bureau got involved in this, they would be unable to escape.

“Hello, Su Bai...” He began in a low voice the moment his call went through.

“Yes, you guessed it right; I did it. You guys can just wait for your deaths.”

An indifferent voice sounded from the phone, and then the boy hung up right away.

“Where did he get such a powerful background?” Li Kang was stunned. He recalled what had happened this morning and realized that the boy’s tone then sounded completely different from the others.

“You’re a fool; let’s pack up and make a run for it!”

Upon hearing the youth’s indifferent and merciless tone of voice, Liu Yong’s last hope was shattered. He roared in fury and prepared to flee.

“Hing~”

However, it was too late. The terrifying oppressive aura of a monarch descended, and a green seal made of spiritual power directly penetrated from the roof, immediately trapping the two in place.

A group of people slowly came down from the sky. In addition to the armed forces of the Pet Administration Bureau, two more people were there, and one of whom was Su Bai.

Both trapped inside, Li Kang and Liu Yong could not say a word. The shock in their hearts was beyond words, for the person standing next to the boy was actually Liu Xinghe, one of the apprentices of Cannes Trainer Association Chairman Gao An.

They had actually provoked those who could not be provoked in Cannes. The elderly chairman’s words were absolute, and they knew that they were done for.

In fact, they could only blame themselves for their deaths. They had been too unscrupulous, thinking that it was fine since they had not had any accidents over these past few years. If only they had investigated more deeply, then things would not have developed to this point.

If they played with fire, they would eventually be burned. In the end, they still paid the price for their actions.

Su Bai did not show off in front of the two and just silently watched them as they were taken away.

These people had actually obtained their certificates a long time ago but had sold them to those who could not enter the monster wilderness.

Such things could be exposed easily as long as it was investigated, and this behavior violated the Pet Alliance’s taboo. They would probably spend the second half of their lives in prison.

“Thank you, senior,” said Su Bai quickly.

Liu Xinghe patted him on the shoulder and shook his head. “This kind of thing should be damned. I don’t know how many youths have been hindered because of their corruption. If you didn’t report it, I don’t know how long they would continue to get away with it.

“New ones will soon be arranged here, and your permits will be issued quickly. I hope to see you win the championship on behalf of Cannes next year.”

“Don’t worry, senior; I’ll do my best to win honor for Cannes.”

Su Bai nodded. In fact, he did not want to use his connections, but they just had to drive him into a corner this time.
