The next day, in the principal’s office.
Li Fan sat casually across from Principal Cha, sipping high-quality tea.
Principal Cha looked at this young teacher in his early thirties, with a slightly pained expression.
Because it was clear that this guy didn’t understand tea appreciation at all, he was just drinking it like water.
Li Fan, once a top graduate of Imperial Summoner University.
Even before graduating, he had combat strength comparable to an average teacher at Imperial University.
He was once considered a potential candidate to grow into a headmaster-level strength in the future.
It was rumored, however, that he neglected his training due to his obsession with card gas.
Lifang Cards were a popular form of entertainnt among summoners.
In fact, there was a little-known secret related to another world behind these cards.
Actually, Principal Cha himself was also fond of card gas, but he believed there should be moderation in everything.
Li Fan’s complete neglect of his improvent was absolutely not advisable.
Yet, even though the cal was thin, it was still bigger than a horse, and Li Fan still possessed comndable standards in summoning.
So, when his old friend from Imperial University requested, Principal Cha imdiately agreed to let him teach at Xidu University.
He just didn’t expect that this guy would slack off so much.
"Principal, why did you call here today?"
After gulping down the tea, Li Fan directly asked.
Actually, he wanted to light a cigarette, but thought better of it out of courtesy.
"Xiao Li, I called you this ti for a specific task."
Upon hearing the question, Principal Cha finally returned to his senses and revealed a heartfelt expression.
"..."
But this left Li Fan at a loss for words.
He ca to teach at Xidu just because he lost a card ga.
He only wanted to quietly pass the days as promised, then gather a high-quality deck and return to Imperial City.
Although he didn’t quite understand Principal Cha’s style, from the expression, it seed like sothing important.
"Actually, this task is a personal request from ."
Seeing no response, Principal Cha continued on his own.
"I want you to pay more attention to a student nad Li Pu."
After all, his energy was limited, and he couldn’t keep an eye on Li Pu all the ti.
Entrusting this task, at least, provides an explanation.
"Li Pu? That odd little la guy?"
Li Fan raised an eyebrow upon hearing this.
He had only heard yesterday that the kid was the champion of this competition.
It’s ridiculous that a la person could actually co in first.
Judging by this, the choice of his skill [Sprint] might have been preditated.
Other summoner skills may be uncertain, but Li Fan could wager that throughout Xidu University and perhaps across the Huaxia region, there might not be a single teacher who uses [Sprint] as well as he does.
His [Sprint] was even personally improved, not a typical [Sprint].
"Oh? You also found him a bit strange?"
Principal Cha nodded with agreent upon seeing Li Fan’s reaction.
When dealing with the little wild fig tree, he initially regarded Li Pu as a support-oriented summoner.
The previous bare-handed ripping of wrapping vines was rely due to having more strength than most people.
But later, that judgnt wavered.
Because he saw Li Pu not only freely weaving between those fierce plant beasts but also going up solo against stragglers, giving them a solid beating and finishing them off.
In contrast, his scarecrow summon followed behind the whole ti, making no contribution.
Putting aside why a la person would have such agile skills, the very combat strength to solo such ferocious beasts with overwhelming victory was indeed astonishing.
With his years of expertise, Principal Cha dared to conclude that among the current freshn, there might not be a single summon that could rival him.
Note that this comparison is between the summoner and the summons, not summons versus summons.
In other words, he believed that Li Pu’s own combat strength was at least on par with a Level 1 B-grade quality summon.
Now, having him learn [Sprint], Principal Cha could only envision his combat strength continuing to rise.
The skill that other summoners use for escape might just beco this kid’s tool for striking enemies.
Of course, he didn’t elaborate on this with Li Fan.
The task entrusted was just to keep an eye on Li Pu in his stead and report any special circumstances promptly.
"Got it."
Hearing this, Li Fan nodded: "So from now on, I just need to keep an eye on that la kid, right?"
"Seems like he must be an important junior to the principal. I’ll take care of it, don’t worry."
Honestly, this task was quite simple and easy, making him feel relieved.
"Uh..."
However, Principal Cha paused after hearing this: "Also, look after that other kid too."
"That’s my grandson."
...
In the campus, Li Pu was talking with Wu Guinan at a stone table.
"After selecting courses, we still have to choose a major?"
After hearing the explanation, Li Pu was speechless.
Having co to Xidu University without learning anything, he was first thrown into so sort of race, and now there’s a competition.
"Yes, after the major selection competition ends, the official sester will begin."
Wu Guinan nodded, taking out a bunch of water spinach from his storage space and handing it to the rolling tortoise at his feet.
[Roll!]
The rolling tortoise joyfully stretched its neck, took the spinach in its mouth, and savored it slowly.
"Had I known it would be this troubleso, I’d have picked another school..."
Li Pu murmured softly, but it didn’t escape Wu Guinan’s ears.
"No worries, you have two weeks before you officially choose your major."
"You can take this ti to rest and bond more with your summon."
ntioning bonding, Wu Guinan looked around wide-eyed, unable to spot the scarecrow presence.
This summon pair was extrely odd, he hadn’t seen it stay by Li Pu’s side even for a second today.
Such a laissez-faire approach, is it really okay?
"You’re right, you’re right."
Li Pu currently maintained a cordial attitude towards Wu Guinan.
For no other reason than that this good classmate lent him 1,000 Crystal Coins.
With these, he could now give the scarecrow the [Bind] he acquired yesterday.
He’d even have 500 left to consider so skills.
He rembered that aside from the Wind Listening Hall, there were beast remains in the Breakthrough Hall and Berserk Hall in the remaining six halls.
Now that he understood how to use the [Friend of Magical Beasts], it was about ti to check them out.
Since he had just finished his chat with Wu Guinan, he could leave anyti.
With the idea in mind, Li Pu decided to summon back the scarecrow first.
