Chapter 72: Promotion

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

After being busy for half a day.

The good news was that both Silkworm Baby and Little Fire Crow could apply for sprite ID cards.

The bad news was that it was almost seven!

He was extremely hungry!

They hadn’t eaten much for lunch, and the application had dragged on till now.

He climbed to the sixth floor and pressed the doorbell.

A moment later, the door opened.

When Mom Su saw him, she was very relieved. “You’re not hurt, are you?”

She looked around.

Mom Su received a call from the school teacher in the afternoon, saying that the car was attacked on its way back to school.

At that moment, her heart tightened.

Even though the teacher on the phone said that he was fine.

Later on, Su Hao also called to let her know that he was safe.

But Mom Su could only be at ease after she saw him with her own eyes.

When Father Su heard the commotion, he walked out to see Su Hao. He didn’t say anything, but he showed a relieved smile.

“Since you’re not injured, quickly wash your hands and eat,” said Mom Su.

At a glance, Su Hao noticed the untouched dishes on the table. He couldn’t help but say, “Mom, didn’t I tell you guys to eat first? You don’t have to wait for me.”

Mom Su casted a glance at him, then called for Silkworm Baby and Little Fire Crow to hurry in.

In the end, she said, “We didn’t wait for you. We were waiting for Silkworm Baby and Little Fire Crow, the two great contributors.”

“Come, come, come. Hurry, I’ve prepared both of your favorite food tonight.”

Then, she looked at Su Hao and said, “What are you waiting for, heat up the dishes!”

Su Hao didn’t have any status in the family. He exchanged a look with his father and walked towards the dining hall.

…

At the dining table, Father Su and Mother Su kept asking about the situation in the afternoon.

Su Hao simply explained.

He didn’t mention that he directly confronted the attacker and escaped from the mouth of an elite-level sprite.

Since the school didn’t mention those things.

There was even less of a need for him to say it.

It would just worry them.

But Father Su and Mother Su were obviously not so at ease.

At this moment…

A piece of news was suddenly broadcasted on the TV.

…

“Look, don’t worry. This is a small probability event. Those attackers won’t be able to do much.”

His parents were finally relieved.

It seemed that the attacker was indeed insignificant in front of the Association of Sprite Trainers.

No one was injured either.

Su Hao knew a little more.

But when he saw the news, he also let out a sigh of relief.

A part of the screen was covered in thick mosaic, but Su Hao could still recognize that it was the stone giant that had been summoned away.

It died a tragic death.

Perhaps this rock giant was the one that exposed the leader’s position.

…

At night, Su Hao was using the computer to look up some materials needed for Silkworm Baby’s evolution.

He knew exactly what he needed.

He was checking the price.

There weren’t many shopping centers selling items related to sprites, but there were still three stores selling them.

Su Hao tapped away on the computer keyboard.

The main ingredient for Silkworm Baby’s evolution was wood-element essence.

That wasn’t cheap.

But for some supplementary materials, Su Hao could still get a discount of tens of thousand yuan.

It was indeed not easy to raise a family.

At this point, Su Hao’s ears twitched. He heard Father Su and Mother Su talking about words like “fraud”, “house” in the living room so he walked out curiously.

“What house?”

“There was a call just now. It said that you got first place in the joint examination. According to the incentive policy formulated by the City Affairs Bureau and Clear Water Real Estate, they want to reward you with a house!”

Mom Su pursed her lips. “Do you really think that I’ve read the public account for nothing? These scams are long outdated!

“They even said that you came in first in the joint examination, is that even possible? Why don’t they find a more reasonable reason? Are they treating me as a fool?”

Mom Su was proficient in the “Prevention of Cheating Thirty-Six Techniques” and also frequently watched various legal programs. She had seen at least 800 to 1,000 scams so she was very satisfied with herself for easily seeing through the trickery of a cheat.

The public account and legal programs were not for nothing.

Su Hao fell silent.

Didn’t he tell them that he had gotten first place?

When he thought about it carefully, it seemed that perhaps, perhaps…he really didn’t say anything.

He said with utmost cautiousness, “Mom, maybe he’s not a liar…”

After much persuasion, Su Hao took out the joint examination certificate, the certificate awarded by the Heavenly King, and so on.

It was then that Father Su and Mother Su finally understood that their son indeed had the ability to win first place in the joint examination.

It wasn’t fake.

He even got his official Sprite Trainer license in the first semester of his third year of high school.

Because Silkworm Baby had already broken through to entry-level.

How awesome was entry-level? After Su Hao chose the Sprite stream, Father Su and Mother Su had a slight research on it.

After a while, Father Su and Mother Su sighed and said, “Silkworm Baby is indeed very hardworking. Of course, you’re not bad either.”

Su Hao was puzzled.

He always felt like he was here to just recharge his phone!

As they spoke,

Su Hao’s cell phone rang.

It was Uncle Pan.

He swiped to answer the call.

“Oh… Well… Alright… Thank you, Uncle Pan.”

The call was related to the house.

The location was in the Sprite Trainer neighborhood that Coach Xiong had mentioned. It was a high-end neighborhood specially provided for Sprite Trainers by the Clear Water Real Estate. There were many facilities related to sprites in the neighborhood.

Many high-level sprites were large in size so it was even more necessary to raise them in a specialized training place.

It was just that there were very few large-sized sprites in An City.

“It’s really a house?” Mother Su didn’t quite believe it.

“It’s absolutely true. There’s no need to pay. You can go to the Guild or City Administration Office tomorrow for enquiries.”

Su Hao said, “Apart from the house, Dad’s position can probably be moved up a bit.”

Father Su was a civil servant in a career unit. It still wasn’t a high level even if he was moved up, but at least he got a promotion.”

Mother Su worked at a private company.

So the City Administration couldn’t manage it.

However, Uncle Pan had said that as long as she was willing, he could arrange an idle job in the public service for her.

The workplace was in the city, near the Association of Sprite Trainers, and was also near the house rewarded to them…

One word to describe it was safe.

Apart from being surprised, Su Hao also felt the weight of a Sprite Trainer.

If it was before he transmigrated, even if he was the top scholar in the college entrance examination, a house was already considered a pretty good reward.

However, in the Sprite stream, the City Administration Bureau placed great importance on the first place merely in the joint examination.

“It may also have something to do with Heavenly King Zhou taking a fancy on you, and you getting a mid-level Sprite Trainer certificate.”

Su Hao didn’t dare to be arrogant.

With such a high status as a Sprite Trainer, it was impossible that he merely grasped extraordinary power.

He had some guesses.

But after all, he was just a high school student.

The most important thing now was to nurture sprites and increase their strength.

At the same time…

As the joint examination ended, winter break arrived.
