After finishing his cultivation, Su Ping cleaned up the remains of the herbs on the ground and threw them into the recyclable trash.
He put on his damp clothes and opened the door. While waiting for customers, he cultivated his augmentation skills.
In his spare time, he would multitask and read the recent news on the computer.
Reading the daily news was a habit of his since he came to this world.
"A certain female star suffers from depression. How could she do such a thing to her pets?!"
"Waves appear on the coast of Tianjing City. Advanced beasts appear …"
"A famous school in Longjiang City is infested with rats …"
Tempting headlines appeared one after another, tempting people to click on them.
Su Ping's years of experience had made him immune to those sensationalist headlines. For example, the first news about a certain female star must have some other reason to click on it. Otherwise, it wouldn't have passed the censor.
To test his judgment, Su Ping didn't hesitate to waste his time to check it out himself.
As for the social news that he had to read, he put it aside for the time being.
"Just as I thought!"
Su Ping felt his heart ache as soon as he read the content.
Nowadays, in order to let people watch the news, even the most basic of morals had been lost!
Using the head of a sheep to sell dog meat, shameless!
Su Ping closed the webpage in a huff and began to read the social news. Gradually, he wore a grave expression.
The Tianjing Base City was a base city near the sea. Border defense had always been a problem. There were more beasts in the sea and they would often swim in through the inland rivers, causing great damage to the ports and fishermen.
After reading the news in silence, Su Ping moved on to the next one.
A rat infestation in a famous school in Longjiang City?
Su Ping found it strange. As soon as he clicked on it, he saw a familiar name. This famous school was Fengshan University where Su Lingyue studied.
The rat infestation mentioned in the title wasn't a real rat infestation. It was just that the Lightning Rat had suddenly become popular at Fengshan University. Lightning Rats could be seen everywhere in the school. It was as if there was a rat infestation everywhere.
The reason was …
It was at the annual competition of the academy. A freakish Lightning Rat had overcome all the difficulties and carried its master to the finals!
The Lightning Rat had killed many beasts with intermediate and advanced bloodlines in an instant. It had demonstrated its unparalleled talent. It had even learned the top ten secret skills of the thunder family!
Below the news was a video of the Lightning Rat's competition.
Su Ping was astonished. This little thing was actually leading the way?
Below the news, there were links to related news, such as "Regarding the upper limit of the Lightning Rat, please watch this video". "Shocking Secret! The Lightning Rat is not a low-rank pet!! " "If you have a hidden king among the low-rank pets, then train it as soon as you can!!" … …
Su Ping was a little speechless. He didn't expect this little thing to cause such a big wave.
He was quite interested in pet competitions. He clicked on the video of the competition in the news. On the stage, Su Yanying, who had come to his store, appeared. In front of her was a tiny Lightning Rat. The video had specially focused on the Lightning Rat!
The shifty-eyed rat was still as wretched as ever.
The next moment, when the competition began, the Lightning Rat dashed out in an instant. It used Thunder Flash and Thunder Shadow Image to get close to its opponent and defeat it!
Instant kill!
Then, there was another competition …
In four or five rounds, the Lightning Rat defeated its opponents quickly. Some of the pets that fell under its sharp claws were popular middle-rank pets, while some were pets with advanced bloodlines that were looked up to by the general public. The pets' postures were incomparably beautiful, but they were all slapped to the ground by this little rat.
The bullet screen was seething with excitement. All kinds of "Almighty Lord Rat" were popping up. Only when the bullet screen was closed could the video be seen clearly.
Su Ping didn't expect that the Lightning Rat would become so popular after being exposed for only a few days. If people knew that this little thing was trained in his store, wouldn't his business be booming right away?
Su Ping went online to search for relevant news. He found that some cultivation stores had released advertisements, claiming that the Lightning Rat was trained in their stores. They also released photos of the Lightning Rat with Su Yanying. But Su Ping could tell at first glance that the photos were synthetic.
Even so, a large number of ignorant passers-by still went there, which made the stores full of business.
Shameless!
Su Ping was furious. He wanted to leave a comment to vent his anger. But then, he remembered that his keyboard strength was too weak and he could be drowned out.
All of a sudden, he remembered that he had Su Yanying's phone number. He could call her and ask her to come over. He could take a video with her and have her testify in person. Wouldn't that be more convincing than those photoshopped photos?
With this in mind, he immediately went to the counter to find the receipt that Su Yanying had filled out before. Soon, he found it and found the phone number on it.
He dialed it at once.
Beep, beep.
"Hello?" A clear female voice was heard. She sounded confused.
"It's me, the owner of the Pixie Pet Store." Su Ping lowered his voice and spoke in his usual indifferent tone.
"Boss?" Su Yanying was surprised. She recognized that it was Su Ping's voice at once. She was pleasantly surprised. She didn't expect that Su Ping would take the initiative to call her. She asked in a hurry, "Boss, how can I help you?"
Su Ping said, "Are you free? I want to ask you to come over. I want to take a short video with you."
"…" The other side of the phone suddenly fell silent.
Take a short video? Su Yanying was stunned. She wondered if she had heard wrong.
Su Ping found it strange that there was no response from the other side of the phone. He fed her several more times.
Su Yanying came back to her senses. Her cheeks blushed. "Boss, what do you want to shoot?"
"Just me and you. Oh, by the way, bring that Lightning Rat as well," Su Ping said.
"Bring the Lightning Rat?" Su Yanying was surprised. She asked in a low voice, "Boss, are you going to train it for me again?"
"If you want to train it again, you will have to pay more." Su Ping said, "Isn't the Lightning Rat famous now? Please come over and take a video to prove that it was trained in my store."
"Oh …" Su Yanying suddenly understood. Her pretty face blushed. She said, "I was just about to go to your store to find you. Boss, thank you very, very much. If it weren't for you helping my Lightning Rat, I might not have made it to the finals. Although I lost in the end, it was not easy to make it to the finals. Thank you very much, boss, for your training!"
"Oh, okay." Su Ping was a little perfunctory when it came to words of gratitude. He casually said some polite words and hung up the phone.
However, after hanging up, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have heard that the other side lost in the end. Only stopped at the finals?
"It's just a school competition. How can there be pets above the seventh rank?" Su Ping was surprised. To be able to defeat the Lightning Rat, it had to be at least an adult advanced pet. Such strength would belong to the team leader among the explorers. How could a student have such strength?
He immediately searched for the videos of Fengshan University's finals on various video websites.
Pet competitions within famous schools attracted less attention from the outside world, unlike the Elite Pet Competition and the Supremacy League. However, some busybodies in the school recorded the videos and posted them on the Internet.
