Starting With Contract Pets

Chapter 301: Responsible

The other division’s vice dean and his fellow chief disciple’s words made Su Bai’s expression change. They had clearly come prepared, attacking him from all sides.

It appeared that these two had no interaction with him, but in fact they had been eyeing him all along.

There were so many interests involved in the curator position that many people had become completely unscrupulous.

Not only Su Bai, even Ouyang Du, He Yu, Han Wei, and the others were full of worries. They were afraid that his contract book would really have some problems.

At the same time, Zi Tianhe’s nepotism made them feel even more annoyed. He had no fairness as the curator at all.

Su Bai looked at the current curator with a cold face and then he smiled.

“Curator, do you have evidence for this? I’ve seen favoritism, but I’ve never seen such extreme favoritism. You’re so well-qualified.”

At this time, thousands of disciples of the God Dragon Division had gathered, and they were all watching Zi Tianhe helplessly. Their disgust for his partiality had developed over the years.

Xu Wentao glanced at the disciples around him and quickly jumped out to point fingers. “Su Bai, you’re so disrespectful of your elders…”

“So? Did I say something wrong? Look at today’s gymnasium; where is fairness?”

He sneered and looked up at the curator once more. “Don’t you really want to know what happened to my contract book and my Ancestor Blood Dragon?

“Yes, I can speak about it and show it to everyone. If you want to know, I can tell you all the ins and outs.

“However, if there’s no problem, I don’t care about any other things; you just have to give us back the resources that have been taken away by the Giant Dragon Division all these years. How about that? Do you dare to agree?”

His voice was loud and open. Hence, all the disciples of the God Dragon Division could hear it.

These disciples all looked over, and a thousand pairs of eyes stared at the father-son pair. They shouted, “Curator, please be fair; don’t disappoint us disciples!”

“The law doesn’t punish numerous offenders.” At this time, with Su Bai paving the way, these disciples no longer felt afraid and all opened their mouths to express their support for him. Their voices were deafening and soon attracted even more disciples to come over and watch.

Especially the disciples of the God Dragon Division, who had long been dissatisfied with the Giant Dragon Division and the curator’s actions. After Zi Tianhe became the curator, their division kept getting exploited every year.

“Curator, please treat each disciple fairly!”

Qin Miao did not hesitate to speak in support of her division’s chief disciple. “Su Bai didn’t commit a crime, so what’s up with these unprovoked requests to investigate his details?

“Are you going to investigate him today and then the other disciples tomorrow? Can’t the disciples have their own secrets?

“I think that his request is reasonable and fair. Now that the number of disciples in the God Dragon Division has gotten big, the resources should be redistributed.”

Zi Tianhe glanced at Qin Miao and Su Bai, then at the disciples on the square. He knew that he had only one choice, and that was to agree with Su Bai’s request. Otherwise, Yulong Gymnasium would be completely divided from here on.

At the thought of this, he could not help but glance at Xu Wentao and the other fools. Heck, this guy did not even know how to pick the right fight! They were so stupid!

“Of course, I’m here today to talk about this. It used to be because there were few people in the God Dragon Division. Now that there are more than enough people, the resources shall be allocated accordingly.

“I hereby announce that the resources originally belonging to the God Dragon Division will all be returned, and the Giant Dragon Division isn’t allowed to interfere in any way this time.”

He decided to return the resources instead of making any bets with Su Bai.

“Thank you, curator!”

The voices of these disciples from the God Dragon Division immediately rose a few pitches, and their disgust toward Zi Tianhe was reduced by more than half.

Su Bai’s face changed slightly, thinking that experience truly counted. This curator’s one trick had easily resolved everything and had even calmly improved his image. It also reduced the admiration his fellow disciples felt for him.

This was because the resources were given back by the curator at his own initiative instead of Su Bai himself having to exchange them.

“Okay, so you can tell us the truth now. If there’s no problem, then I’ll apologize to you and be responsible for all the consequences.

“I’m just thinking about the future of the gym. I hope that you can understand that I don’t want the future curator to be an ambiguous person,” Zi Tianhe looked at him and said slowly.

He was very straightforward. As the curator, he had this confidence. No matter what trick Su Bai came up with, he could bear this responsibility.

“Since you feel that I have ambiguity, let everyone witness today if I truly have such inconsistency.” Su Bai looked around and spoke coldly. “Take a good look!”

He glanced at Zi Wuji and the others and summoned his contract book.

As the fog on the contract book disappeared little by little, a quick-witted breath of life emanated and the strong fluctuations in the laws of life made everyone present feel a sense of joy.

“How is it? Is there a problem with my contract book?” he looked at Zi Wuji and Xu Wentao and asked.

“Why don’t you also remove the fog on the cover? Who knows what you’re hiding on it!” Xu Wentao pointed to Su Bai’s contract book and tried to force his flawed logic again.

“I heard that there are some special methods that can conceal most of the aura of chaotic contract books.” Zi Wuji also nodded immediately. Since they had already come to this point, they might as well be more vicious.

He looked at Su Bai and then at his contract book, thinking that there must be some secret with it. Even if it was not a chaotic contract book, it should be another secret.

He had already sacrificed so much, so he must put the other on the spot no matter what.

“Curator, what do you think?” Su Bai looked at the curator again.

Zi Tianhe glanced at him and said indifferently with his hands behind his back, “Since you claim that there’s nothing wrong with it, show your contract book. If there’s anything, I’ll be responsible.”

“You’re really biased.” Su Bai smiled and then nodded again.”Very well. I hope that you can really take responsibility for this.”

The curator did not care about the young man’s words and was not cowed. Why could he not shoulder the blame?

Su Bai immediately stopped hiding and removed all the fog on the cover of his contract book.

Suddenly, strong fluctuations of the law of life spread like a vast sea. Everyone looked up. An amethyst contract book lingering in a green stream had appeared in the air.

The most eye-catching thing was a mermaid statue full of mystery and ancient atmosphere inlaid on the cover of the contract book.

“Oh, my God! The contract book is so cool! What’s that statue?”

All the disciples were stunned when they saw his contract book. Did such a contract book exist?

“Did you embed the statue yourself? How did you do it? I want one, too!” Some people were very envious of his cool contract book.

“Same here!”

“Don’t even dream about it! This contract book is the product of law and spirit. How could it be embedded with a statue? Have your brains been fried?” someone said loudly.

“Yes, what’s going on? Why do I feel a little familiar with that statue?”

“Yes, yes! I feel like I’ve seen it somewhere!”

Suddenly a crisp voice gave the answer to everyone. “This… Isn’t that exactly the same as the statue of the mermaid, one of the four legendary creation pets, the Recorder of All Things? The breath is almost the same!”

This statement exploded in everyone’s mind like thunder!

“F*ck! That’s why I said it looks familiar!”

“The Recorder of All Things’ statue… Senior brother, did you obtain the inheritance of one of the creation pets?”

Stunned senseless, these disciples stared at him incredulously. No wonder he had to keep hiding his contract book; it was simply too shocking.

It turned out to be related to the four great creation pets! Although they did not know about the four creation pets and the tokens, they all understood that it was definitely not simple.

Anything that had to do with the four great creation pets could not be simple.

Zi Wuji and Xu Wentao felt even more stunned. They had never thought that the reason for Su Bai being so secretive about his contract book was actually related to a creation pet!

Zi Wuji could not wait to slap himself twice, castigating himself for being so cheap to expose Su Bai!

Now, there was no need to compete for the curator position as it directly belonged to Su Bai. He knew that it was a token of the mermaid, the Recorder of All Things. Human beings had struggled to find even one of the tokens of the four great creation pets for countless years.

With this, Su Bai could be said to be invincible. This stupid competition was meaningless now as the other would no doubt become the curator.

At the thought of this, Zi Wuji felt both downhearted and extremely sullen. He glared at Xu Wentao with eyes full of hatred.

It was all because of his f*ck*ng tricks. Was he satisfied? He had directly been eliminated from the competition just like this. D*mn it!

Xu Wentao was also dumbfounded. Who the hell would have imagined that a token, which had remained undiscovered for more than a hundred years, would suddenly appear on Su Bai’s person? He felt too wronged.

He also wished to slap himself twice. He was done for at this point. If Su Bai had been offended before, it would be fine, but he was now his freaking ancestor.

Thinking of the young man’s previous expressions and words, he deeply regretted his actions in his heart. Why did he not leave himself a path of retreat at that time? At the moment, it was all over.

They could not bear this responsibility!

Zi Tianhe’s expression changed when he saw the contract book. He immediately summoned his pet to seal off the entire square. He looked at Su Bai’s contract book and was speechless for some time, thinking that his mouth was too poisonous. This was really something that he could not bear to take responsibility for.

F*ck!

“Curator, is it alright now? I hope that you can really bear this responsibility.” Su Bai looked at him and spoke indifferently.

If something happened to him, it would implicate the four great creation pets, then Zi Tianhe would become the sinner of all mankind.

Zi Tianhe no longer had the indifferent and arrogant expression on his face. Instead, he could only laugh awkwardly. “Haha… Er, quickly take back your contract book.”

He never dreamed that he would see this thing here; it was something that he had not found for more than a hundred years.

“Take it back? Didn’t you all force me to show it? Come on now. Keep looking, keep looking. After a while, I’ll go to the Pet Alliance and explain things.”

Su Bai sneered. How could it be so simple for them?

The two deans also looked shocked. Bai Chen looked at Qin Miao and seemed to be asking why she did not stop it if she knew?

However, she was also at a loss and had truly not known about it at all. If she had known about it, she would have reported it to her master and let Su Bai be the young curator directly. Why would they waste time with a competition?

After all, the tokens of the four great creation pets were completely incomparable.

Zi Tianhe took a deep breath, made his expression amiable, and smiled at Su Bai.

“I apologize. I’m really sorry. Hurry up and take your contract book back. If it’s exposed for a long time, you’ll be sensed by the immortal and eternal void monsters. You don’t want to encounter them.”

When did Zi Tianhe, who had always been solemn and majestic, ever show such an expression? When did he ever take the initiative to apologize to a junior disciple?

The disciples who saw this scene were astonished, and they could not help but admire Su Bai. He was really amazing, unyielding, and unafraid even when facing the curator. As expected, he was the most outstanding in the history of their gym.

“Junior Brother Su, put it away quickly. I apologize, too. I’m truly sorry; I’ve misunderstood you.” Zi Wuji quickly apologized as well.

“Sorry, I’ve wronged you. I’ll go back to the gym and be a guard. Please put away your contract book.” Xu Wentao also apologized to him with a guileless smile and only begged to make up for it. Otherwise, even the curator would kill him without Su Bai having to speak up after this incident.

“Put it away. That kind of thing really can’t be exposed for a long time. I’ve already notified the master so that this matter will be handled better. You can be at ease that, from here on, no one will persecute you in this gym.”

At this time, Qin Miao also started persuading him.

“Well, then, since I trust you.” Su Bai nodded and finally kept his contract book. After all, he did not really want to have a fall-out with everyone.

After he kept his contract book, Zi Tianhe looked at the thousands of disciples on the square and suddenly felt like he had thrown a rock at his own foot. He became more and more disappointed with his son and Xu Wentao.

If they had dealt with it in secret, things would not have been so troublesome as it was at this moment.

Now, he must deal with the disciples who had seen this secret. He felt a headache coming upon seeing the size of this crowd.

“Presumably, everyone wants to know what this is. That’s right. It’s the statue of the mermaid, Recorder of All Things. It’s related to the safety of mankind, so everyone must sign a vow of secrecy. If you leak this information, the void law will erase your memory.

“Everyone who signs the void oath can obtain a corresponding dragon crystal or pure dragon fruit. I hope that everyone can cooperate.”

As Zi Tianhe spoke, he released a gray-colored, butterfly-like pet.

This was called the Void Secret Butterfly. It could connect with the most powerful void law to protect secrets. The secrets it guarded were almost impossible to be discovered by others, and it was useless even if it was killed.

“Curator, I’ll do it first.” Zi Wuji was the first to come forward. Although he was feeling very frustrated and his mood was extremely complicated, he had to try his best and remedy this situation, or else the consequences would be unthinkable.

“Let us do it, too.”

Han Wei, Ouyang Du, and the others also stood up. Their faces all had smiles, feeling glad that they had chosen to follow Su Bai.

The matter was so serious and there were even rewards to be obtained; thus, the disciples did not have any resistance. They all stepped forward to sign the void vow of never revealing the secret.

Void vows involved blood and spiritual power, and the secrecy effect was very terrifying.

It took a long time to deal with all this. Except for Su Bai, Qin Miao, Bai Chen, and Zi Tianhe who did not sign the void oath, everyone else did.

Although they did not join the disciples in swearing an oath, the four would likely do so later.

Zi Tianhe took a deep breath and glanced at his son, this m*th*rf*ck*r. Finally, the incident was drawing to a close and he could only pray for a lighter scolding later.

Who would have thought that, when he casually said that he would take responsibility, the other party would turn out to have a token of the mermaid, Recorder of All Things? He did not know whether it was bad luck or good luck.

“Su Bai, come with us. The grandmaster is already waiting for you,” Qin Miao looked at Su Bai and said.
