Dai Lemao and Old Chen also looked over, and their expressions immediately became serious.
"I heard that Mr. Ding has been cultivating and rarely goes out. I think he's focusing on his thunder and fire training methods. He wants to reach the top."
"That's normal!"
"He has been a master trainer for over twenty years. It's time for him to make further progress."
"Don't call him Mr. Ding. Don't let him hear you," Shi Haochi said in a low voice.
Dai Lemao heaved a sigh. "That's true. We will have to call him Mr. Ding when he achieves something."
"He's almost here. Let's go and greet him." Old Chen was even more direct and had already stood up.
It was better to build a relationship as soon as possible. If they waited until Mr. Ding had made the breakthrough, they would have to kneel down and suck up to him.
Shi Haochi and Dai Lemao nodded. They told their students to go to the red carpet aisle.
"Master Ding …"
Zhenxiang, Tongtong, Qian Xiuxiu, and Zhou Jin stared at the stooped and ordinary-looking old man in surprise. They were all master trainers but there was such a huge gap between their status. They couldn't help but be in awe of the old man when they saw how their father (teacher) reacted.
Su Ping looked at Master Ding as well. He didn't feel anything special. All of a sudden, he saw two familiar faces among the people behind Master Ding.
He raised his eyebrows.
The other master trainers around them had also noticed Master Ding and the others coming in. Apart from a few who were confident in their own abilities, the others "casually" stood up and "casually" walked to the red carpet aisle that everyone had to walk through.
When he saw the latter approaching, he immediately took the initiative to greet him and exchange a few pleasantries.
It took them more than ten minutes to reach Su Ping and the others.
"Master Ding, long time no see!"
Shi Haochi was chatting with Old Chen and the other two about the Pet Queen. When he caught a glimpse of them approaching, Shi Haochi turned his head inadvertently. He was surprised but calm at the same time.
Old Chen and Dai Lemao also turned their heads in surprise and immediately exchanged greetings.
They used to call him Old Ding, but now they were addressing him as Master Ding.
Master Ding's name was Ding Fengchun. When he entered the hall, he had already noticed the situation of these people. He understood their greetings and exchanged a few words with them with a smile. However, his attention was mostly focused on those who were sitting still.
As the saying goes, you may not remember when others praise you.
However, if someone slapped you, you would definitely remember it for the rest of your life. The more you think about it, the angrier you get!
Those of you who are seated, you have successfully attracted my attention.
"These must be your two daughters. They're really smart." Ding Fengchun smiled at Shi Haochi. His praise wasn't completely fake.
He didn't think much of Master Shi Haochi.
But he remembered his two daughters. They were the best among all the master trainers' children at the headquarters!
His training was outstanding. He was a sixth-rank trainer at such a young age. He was a genius trainer to have achieved that before the age of twenty!
In the future, it was very likely that his two daughters would become master trainers like Shi Haochi. If one family could have three master trainers, they would be the most outstanding among all the master trainers.
Ding Fengchun couldn't help but think of his silly son who only wanted to be a battle pet warrior. How stupid could he be?
"You flatter me, Master Ding," Shi Haochi said modestly.
But Zhenxiang and Tongtong were blushing. They were excited and shy.
Su Ping looked at their heads out of instinct. How could he tell that they were smart with such thick hair?
"Why, why are you here?!"
All of a sudden, he heard a surprised voice from the crowd behind Ding Fengchun.
Everyone was surprised. A master trainer was talking. Who would be so ignorant?
They turned around and saw that it was a girl who had spoken.
Hu Rongrong came back to her senses. She blushed but her eyes were still fixed on Su Ping. She found it hard to believe. Wasn't he just an elementary trainer who had just arrived at the Holy Light Base City? What was he doing at the master trainers' conference?
Su Ping was one of the three master trainers. But, didn't he come from another base city? How could he have found a master trainer so quickly?
The young man standing next to her was also looking at Su Ping in bewilderment. A glint of gloominess flashed in his eyes.
"Rongrong? Do you know each other? " Ding Fengchun's expression softened when he saw that it was Hu Rongrong. Her grandfather was a top trainer. He wouldn't mind no matter what Hu Rongrong said.
Shi Haochi and the others were also staring at Su Ping in surprise.
Zhenxiang and Tongtong recognized Hu Rongrong. The latter's grandfather was well-known in the headquarters. Hu Rongrong was also from the second generation of the Pei family, but she was more distinguished than them.
That being said, they were proud of the fact that they were as capable as Hu Rongrong. They were both at the sixth rank and from famous schools. It was hard to say who would become a master trainer first.
"Brother SU, do you know Miss Rongrong?" Shi Haochi looked at Su Ping in surprise. Didn't you just arrive at the Holy Light Base City? You haven't even found a hotel yet. How could you have made friends with the granddaughter of a top master trainer?
"Yes, I do."
Su Ping nodded.
Of course, he only knew her name.
Hu Rongrong came back to her senses after hearing Ding Fengchun's question. She was about to answer when she suddenly changed her mind. What if she told him about Su Ping? What if he was kicked out or looked down upon? Wouldn't that be embarrassing?
She nodded but didn't go into details. "We've met once. We don't know each other well."
Ding Fengchun understood. He darted a glance at Su Ping but didn't pay much attention to him.
"Brother Su, we meet again. I believed you when you said you were an elementary trainer. I knew it. Brother Su, you don't look like an elementary trainer."
At this moment, the young man standing beside Hu Rongrong spoke with a smile on his face.
Su Ping raised his eyebrows and darted a glance at the young man.
If Su Ping didn't know what had happened, he would have thought that the young man was actually complimenting him.
That young man was Xiao Fengxu, whom Su Ping had met at the stadium.
Xiao Fengxu seemed to be the one with the highest status among the group and the only one who didn't have a direct conflict with Su Ping.
Su Ping didn't expect that Xiao Fengxu would take the initiative to pick a fight. Su Ping had sensed Xiao Fengxu's killing intent when he left, but he didn't think much of it. Xiao Fengxu was baring his fangs.
"Elementary trainer?"
Everyone stared at Su Ping in surprise.
Shi Haochi and Chen were surprised as well. However, Su Ping's calmness made them wonder if Xiao Fengxu was telling the truth.
"Do you know each other?" Dai Lemao couldn't help but ask Su Ping.
At the same time, he darted a look at Shi Haochi.
Su Ping had been doubting Shi Haochi's words. After all, how could such a young man say that he was the one who trained the Moonfrost Dragon?
Not even if Su Ping had started cultivating when he was still in his mother's womb.
Hu Rongrong was the granddaughter of a top trainer but she was only at the sixth rank. Even if Su Ping was more talented and was at the seventh rank, he couldn't have trained the Moonfrost Dragon like that!
Shi Haochi was just as confused. That being said, he trusted Su Ping. Based on their interaction the day before, Shi Haochi could tell that there was something about this young man that didn't fit his age and identity. Su Ping couldn't fake it. He could tell from the details.
"I've only seen him but I don't know him." Su Ping said. At the same time, he turned to Xiao Fengxu. "Who are you calling Brother Su? Are you worthy?"
Su Ping wasn't in the mood to beat around the bush.
The reason was simple.
Xiao Fengxu wasn't worthy.
Su Ping might have been in the mood to bicker with Xiao Fengxu if Xiao Fengxu was an equal match for him. However, since Xiao Fengxu was someone that he could kill easily, he wouldn't feel happy even if he won the argument.
Su Ping's words silenced everyone.
