Chapter 77: Fallen Starfire, Returning to Old Haunts
If you don’t perform well, you’ll just get scolded like a skinny dog.
Director Yang was so angry he didn’t even go home. Back then, he’d cried, unable to bear it; now, he could only smile and let it go.
"Director, Director!"
An instructor burst into the office, his face alight with excitement and joy.
"What, did you eat magpie dung this morning?" Director Yang said coldly. "Not even knocking? So rude."
"Ah, sorry, Director." The instructor realized his mistake, but then, thinking of the documents in his hand, he said excitedly, "Director Yang, quick, look at this!"
These young people are so inexperienced, making a big deal out of nothing. Director Yang was speechless and couldn’t be bothered to argue. He figured he’d just brush it off and find an excuse to slack off later.
"This is... Hmm? Chu Yi’s file? That ’anomaly’ who hadn’t contracted a Pet Beast in two years?" Director Yang was stunned and carefully looked through it.
"’Three days ago, he’d contracted a Red Fox...’ PFFT!" A mouthful of tea sprayed out. Director Yang’s eyes widened. "He actually managed to contract one?!"
The instructor wiped his face and smiled bitterly. "Yes... Director, keep reading; there’s an even bigger surprise ahead."
Director Yang’s expression turned serious. As the director of the third years, it was impossible for him not to know Chu Yi. However, Chu Yi had been selected for the Starfire Sequence, only to be expelled last month. The fall of such a prodigy was truly regrettable. Coupled with his busy schedule, Director Yang hadn’t immediately known how to place him. He clearly possessed Super Talent and had the potential to become a Dawn Star, yet he lacked the ability to contract Pet Beasts. To fade into obscurity like that—what a tragedy.
It’s like possessing a treasure trove rich enough to rival a nation, but having no key to unlock it. Now, he had the key. He had opened the treasure trove.
