Super God Pet Shop

Chapter 138: Give Me an Explanation (Bonus Chapter 2)

Dong Mingsong raised an eyebrow slightly; he completely disagreed with the other party's statement.

"It's our academy's business which instructors teach the students. Old Zhou, you're overthinking it!"

He spoke softly but with great meaning, saying, "Moreover, as a senior instructor in our academy, it's no big deal if your students are rude and offensive. If our students offend Director Fei, and Director Fei disciplines them, I won't say anything either."

Zhou Yunchan's expression changed; he hadn't expected Dong Mingsong to be so protective of his people.

Fei Yanbo's expression was also somewhat unpleasant, and he was furious, but Dong Mingsong was, after all, an eighth-level battle pet master, so he did not dare to directly argue.

Luo Fengtian and the others felt bitter; they were clearly destined to suffer this loss.

They never expected that they had offended not a student, but a mentor, and a senior mentor just like Director Fei!

Judging from their age, they were about the same age as them, which was simply unbelievable.

However, considering the strength the other party had displayed, and the terrifying Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast, they could barely accept it.

Zhou Yunchan's face darkened. He said, "Old Dong, I can understand you're concerned about saving face. However, your Fengshan Academy invited us to participate in the academy's pet-fighting exchange, yet you sent a senior instructor to injure our student beforehand. If word gets out, it'll be even more embarrassing than losing the competition, won't it?"

Dong Mingsong was taken aback, and his expression changed.

If this matter is spread maliciously, it will indeed generate significant negative news.

The audience is too lazy to explore the truth of the matter, but the surface of the matter is that Su Ping, the senior instructor, beat up the other contestant.

This alone will draw countless criticisms.

He paused for a moment, then said, "How about this, he'll continue teaching for now. After he finishes teaching, I'll call him over to give everyone an explanation."

Seeing Dong Mingsong's words, Zhou Yunchan's expression gradually improved, and he asked, "How much longer?"

"He finishes class at four, soon," Dong Mingsong said, glancing at the time.

Hearing him say this, everyone nodded and waited patiently.

Soon, four o'clock passed.

Dong Mingsong immediately contacted Su Ping's communications.

"Hello, the user you are trying to reach is temporarily unavailable..."

Dong Mingsong was taken aback, then realized, "He was in class just now, so he probably turned off his communication."

Zhou Yunchan nodded in agreement; this was understandable.

Dong Mingsong quickly contacted Feng Yanjing and asked him to immediately contact the instructor in charge of order at Su Ping's venue and have that instructor notify Su Ping to come over immediately.

A few minutes later, Feng Yanjing replied to Dong Mingsong's message, saying, "Vice Principal, I contacted the venue, but they said... Instructor Su has already left on his bicycle."

"..."

Dong Mingsong Petrochemical.

He didn't turn his communicator on very loudly, but everyone in the room was a battle pet master with keen hearing, so they naturally heard Feng Yanjing's slightly embarrassed voice. They looked at each other, somewhat astonished and speechless.

This is fucking...

Upon hearing the words "riding a bicycle," Luo Fengtian and the others knew it was Su Ping without a doubt, and they smiled bitterly to themselves.

"This..." Dong Mingsong came to his senses, somewhat embarrassed, and said to Zhou Yunchan, "Old Zhou, look at this..."

Zhou Yunchan's face twitched slightly. They had been waiting here for ages, and the other party had simply ridden away on their bike, leaving them all standing there. What was most infuriating was that the other party hadn't done it on purpose and didn't even realize they had stood them up!

Zhou Yunchan said with a dark face, "Isn't there any other way to contact me?"

Dong Mingsong knew that Su Ping had gone back to his small shop, but there was a big shot in that shop, so how could he dare to bring people to Su Ping to settle accounts?

Moreover, with Zhou Yunchan and his ilk's limited strength, taking them to settle scores with Su Ping would be tantamount to screwing them over; it's like rubbing an egg against a rock!

He still had some connection with Zhou Yunchan, so he shook his head and said, "No, maybe he'll open his communication channels tonight. I'll have him contact you then and apologize?"

Zhou Yunchan snorted coldly, "Apologize via communication?"

"Let it go for today. He'll come to the academy tomorrow, right? This exchange competition is going to go on until tomorrow, so let's wait for him here!" Zhou Yunchan said coldly.

Dong Mingsong coughed lightly and said, "He doesn't have classes tomorrow, so he won't be coming to the academy."

Zhou Yunchan angrily said, "Then contact him and have him come over!"

"Alright, alright, let him come and explain to you in person, okay?" Dong Mingsong agreed, somewhat helplessly.

Zhou Yunchan snorted and said, "Now take us to see the venue first, and let me see just how strong your academy's annual champion, Ye Hao, really is."

Hearing the anger in his words, Dong Mingsong smiled bitterly to himself, knowing that he had transferred his anger to Ye Hao. It seemed that this pet battle was going to be quite intense...

However, he wasn't nervous; on the contrary, he was quite happy. Even if he lost the competition, he wasn't afraid. As long as it brought benefits to the students, that was the best trophy. After all, this kind of academy exchange competition wouldn't be fatal, but when they went to the wilderness in the future, the monsters wouldn't show any mercy!

……

……

"Little sister, how about we go catch some loaches..."

Su Ping rode his bicycle through the academy, still humming a little tune, but this time he rode in the opposite direction, heading out of the academy.

With the teaching settled, he can now return to his pet breeding business with peace of mind.

Soon, Su Ping returned to the shop. The first thing he did upon returning was to select a new batch of pets and hand them over to his shadow clone for training. Then, he put the previous batch of pets that his shadow clone had trained into the training space.

After finishing all this, Su Ping sat in the shop, practicing his basic amplification skills while waiting for customers.

His main customers are still the students from Fengshan. At this moment, during class, business in Su Ping's shop has returned to being quiet. It will only get busy after the students leave school.

Su Ping stopped cultivating after a while and, taking advantage of the time when no one was around, continued to train in the Dragon King's inheritance ground.

After spending a day at the Dragon King's Heritage Site, Su Ping made some progress. When he returned to the shop, it was already five o'clock, and the students would be arriving soon.

He sat down in the shop, turned on his communicator, and continued to cultivate while waiting for customers to come in.

Not long after, the communicator suddenly rang.

Su Ping answered the call and, hearing Dong Mingsong's voice, asked in surprise, "Vice Principal Dong? Is something the matter?"

Dong Mingsong, on the other end of the communicator, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the call had finally connected. He said irritably, "You still have the nerve to ask me what's wrong? Do you even know you've gotten yourself into trouble today?" His tone was serious, as if Su Ping had committed a terrible crime.

"I don't know."

Su Ping was puzzled.

Seeing that his serious tone hadn't made Su Ping take it seriously at all, Dong Mingsong was somewhat speechless and said, "Don't you have any idea what you did at the academy gate today?!"

Su Ping said, "Someone was blocking the way, so I asked them to move aside. I didn't do anything."

Dong Mingsong nearly coughed up blood from his nose. "Make way? Does anyone summon a Hellfire Dragon Beast to make way for them?!"

"Well, they won't listen to me when I speak human language, so I have to let my pet communicate with them," Su Ping said.

Dong Mingsong smiled wryly, but he could also detect a hint of displeasure in Su Ping's tone. After all, Su Ping was someone who had fought in the wasteland; how could he really be so easygoing and let others manipulate him?

He said, "These people were invited by me to participate in the student pet fighting competition. Now that you've beaten them, they want an explanation. Although I know it wasn't your fault, if this gets out, it will inevitably have a negative impact on the academy's reputation. So, if you're free tomorrow, it would be best if you could come to the academy, say a few polite words to them, and give them a way to save face."

Su Ping raised an eyebrow. Going to the academy again? It would take an hour to make the round trip.

"If you really need to confess, why don't you just confess for me? Thank you for your trouble, Vice Principal," Su Ping said with a smile.

Dong Mingsong smiled wryly, "If I could apologize for you, I would have said so already. What's a few words of apology? It doesn't hurt much. But the other party insists that you come in person, so I'm in a difficult position."

Su Ping was speechless. Was this a case of beating the younger brother and then the older brother coming to punish him?

So many annoying things.

"I understand, I'll make time to go. By the way, how about you have them come to my shop?" Su Ping suggested on the spur of the moment.

Dong Mingsong was startled and quickly said, "No, no, this is a small matter, it doesn't need to cause such a commotion. You can come here for a moment."

"It's nothing."

"It really won't work, really."

"All right……"

After ending the call, Su Ping felt somewhat helpless; it seemed he would have to make another trip tomorrow.

At this time, students began to arrive at the store one after another.

Su Ping composed himself and stepped forward to collect the money... to receive the guests.

Some students came to receive pets, while others came to train them. Su Ping noticed that there seemed to be fewer students today, and most of them were familiar faces who had come to receive pets.

"What activities are there at the academy today?" Su Ping asked a student curiously. He thought of the pet battle competition that Dong Mingsong had mentioned. Could it be that everyone went to participate in the competition?

The boy was somewhat flattered when Su Ping stopped him. He was a regular customer of Su Ping's shop and had been there three times. If it weren't for the fact that his pet beast was a third-tier beast and the training fee was only 10,000 each time, he might not have been able to afford to come so many times.

Each of these three training sessions brought him pleasant surprises and boosted his combat power, allowing him to climb onto the class's combat power rankings.

He scoffed at the various negative rumors circulating in the college today about Su Ping's teaching, thinking that those who said such things were fools.

However, he was quite cunning and didn't argue with anyone.

Influenced by the negative rumors, people said all sorts of bad things about Su Ping, and even rejected Su Ping's shop, thinking it was a place to make money and cheat people.

This made him both angry and secretly pleased, a very contradictory feeling.

The reason he was secretly pleased was that the fewer people came to Su Ping's store, the less time he would have to wait in line.

This is a good thing for him!

As a "loyal long-time fan," he could only watch silently with tears in his eyes as others angrily criticized Su Ping, while silently offering a few words of defense for Su Ping in his heart.
