If I have to say, among the three people in the final exam battle, only Jiang Xinyue barely reached this threshold.
A true seed of True Man.
In other words, as long as she does not fall during her growth, there's a fair chance she can achieve True Man status.
Principal Liu continued, "Yes. However, their luck didn't last, as next year's state competition would just happen to coincide with the Young Master of the Jiang Family and a few other monsters. Otherwise, they definitely would have had the qualifications to compete for the state championship in the finals."
While chatting, Lin Guang had once heard Principal Liu ntion it.
The undisputed successors of the three major noble families in Zhen Sheng City this generation—the Young Master—is Jiang Xinyue and Huai Shouren's cousin.
Huai Shoucheng, Jiang Nalan.
Because they were prepared with secret techniques for nurturing, the birth tis of this generation in the three major families were close, mostly within a span of a little over two years.
Huai Shoucheng is the oldest, having graduated from senior high school this year. He is a formidable True Man seed, winning this year's state championship—though this was partly due to a lack of formidable opponents this year, belonging to a "slack season," hence lacking in significance.
And Jiang Nalan is one year older than Lin Guang and is also about to be a senior.
"He sounds quite impressive; you're bringing this up because...?"
Principal Liu sighed, "Ah, that's how it is."
"Geniuses often have so temperant, indeed, people like you who are gentle and mature are very rare. But that boy is different from you, spoiled by his parents and sect elders, he's really a bit too full of himself, and his relationship with his teammates is very bad."
"One of his teammates with Purple Talent even transferred because of this, putting a lot of pressure on my old friend."
"Recently, the news of you 'winning the exam battle' in the joint exams reached Nanhai City, and that boy sneers at you, saying there's definitely sothing fishy, claiming either you've tead up with others to play tricks or you're so True Man's illegitimate child."
"In short, he acknowledges your strength but refuses to acknowledge your background, and acknowledges your background but doesn't acknowledge your strength."
"..." Lin Guang was at a loss for words.
Principal Liu continued, "My old friend thought this was a good opportunity, so he decided to bring his child here to let you, a genius one year younger than him, curb his sharpness, to let him understand what it ans to always be soone superior out there, and to correct his bad character."
"He didn't even use 'Ether Network' to discuss it with ; he just told after coming here. It seems soone from the Celestial Star Sect brought them over to get a share in the Tier Seven Secret Realm. They ca with the group. I just wanted to ask if you have ti the next few days to spar with him?"
"Principal, you guys have too high an opinion of ."
Lin Guang couldn't help but say, "Purple Talent along with Purple Legendary Level potential Spirit Beast, still at the Tier Level of the top five hundred, heavily nurtured by the sect, and a year and a half ahead of in training ti. We're not on the sa level at all."
To be fair, Lin Guang's setup is not inferior to the other party's.
The system is the greatest Divine Object and Inheritance, Lisa and Chelina are both of Purple Grade, and even Vishdair can definitely complete its evolution next year. All he lacks is ti—the reason why the high school Spirit Master league restricts age is that the combat power gap brought by the nurturing period is really too significant, just like how boxing matches must be strictly divided by weight.
"Ha-ha, of course, we didn't expect you to defeat him, and the rules and venue can be modified to your requirents, whether 1v1 or with no restrictions."
Liu Feifan paused for a mont and added, "That kid is very proud; as long as you can spar a few moves with him without falling behind, he should be able to temper his arrogance a lot."
"But it's not mandatory, just consulting your opinion, Lin Guang. If you're not willing, I'll just help you refuse it."
"After all, it's unreasonable for them to suddenly challenge and have the level advantage, and there's absolutely no reason to force you to accept."
"I see."
Lin Guang didn't give an answer imdiately.
He could tell that the principal didn't likely an it casually, and there might be deeper anings involved.
But if he were to refuse, the principal should follow through with his decision to refuse on his behalf, which is not a worry.
So... should he accept it?
Lin Guang pondered for a mont, said he needed to think about it, and would reply the next day. Principal Liu was sowhat surprised but didn't say much more, exchanged so polite words, and then hung up the phone.
After putting down the phone, Lin Guang looked around and t the eyes of Vishdair and Chelina.
Clearly, the phone's sound was as good as a speaker for them.
Vishdair crossed his arms, "Do you want to fight?"
"I don't mind, but for you..."
Chelina quietly watched Lin Guang without speaking, obviously awaiting his decision.
"It's okay, I have my ways."
Lin Guang smiled, stood up, and went to the kitchen to bring bowls and chopsticks.
"Let's eat first, Lisa will be ready soon."
...
The dishes Lisa brought out were a feast for the eyes and senses.
All along, she has been very sensible, willing to help Lin Guang with so household chores, so she was no stranger to cooking—and she also has her own phone, with a personal account Lin Guang set up for her, so looking up recipes was a given.
It's not that Vishdair wasn't given one, but she knew too few words to use it.
Looking at the food on the table, Chelina seed to realize sothing suddenly, and got up.
"..."
After hesitating for a mont, she went to the most open corner of the living room—most hos have such a space, used to temporarily release Spirit Beasts.
With a twist of her wrist, a huge Wind Speed Wolf appeared in the living room. Lin Guang rembered its na should be "Eleven."
Lisa was sowhat surprised, "So it's a Spatial Spiritual Artifact capable of carrying live creatures."
"Awoo~!!!"
The mont the Wind Speed Wolf appeared, it howled, the sound tragic and sorrowful, as if burdened with the unbearable weight of a wolf's life—Lin Guang speculated that it was probably hungry, after all, bodily regulation takes ti, and the ti in such Spatial Spiritual Artifacts flows normally, aning it must have gone hungry for a whole day.
"Awoo—woo?!"
The Wind Speed Wolf seed as though it wanted to howl more, but was suddenly taken aback, its soft nose twitching while looking at Chelina as if she were so kind of monster, it even took a half step back, its small eyes filled with wariness and confusion.
"..."
Chelina sighed, flipped her wrist again, and brought out a big tal basin and canine Spirit Beast food, filled the basin with the food, gave the Wind Speed Wolf one last look, and returned to the table.
"Not only does it not recognize, but it's even afraid? What's going on."
Vishdair wondered as she picked at her food.
"This should be the cost of the contract."
