Chapter 310: Chapter 281: Irina

“And you are?” Li Qian asked, a look of confusion on his face as he looked at the unfamiliar girl before him.

“You can call me Irina. I’m here because of Teacher Tie,” the girl, Irina, said, her voice calm as she glanced at Li Qian.

Hearing this, a flash of understanding crossed Li Qian’s eyes, but it was quickly replaced by even more confusion.

He remembered that Elder Tie was the “Gatekeeper” of Shazhou Beast Taming University, guarding the Dimensional Rift the university suppressed. He wasn’t an official teacher at Shazhou Beast Taming University.

So, logically, he shouldn’t have any students. But from the looks of it, Irina was clearly presenting herself as his student.

Since he couldn’t figure it out, Li Qian decided not to dwell on it. Perhaps her calling Elder Tie ’teacher’ was just a sign of respect.

After all, there was a saying: if you don’t know how to address someone, calling them ’teacher’ is never a mistake.

“Senior Sister Irina, hello, please come in.” Although he was curious, Li Qian restrained himself and didn’t ask any impolite questions. He welcomed the senior sister of the Gaochang Race into his dorm room.

After Irina was seated, Li Qian finally asked, “Has Elder Tie been too busy to have any free time lately?”

Li Qian asked, but in reality, even without asking, he already knew the answer. Given his relationship with Elder Tie, he was sure the man would have come to see him in the first few days of school. There was only one reason he hadn’t appeared: he had no time!

Considering his job responsibilities, Li Qian already had a general idea of what was keeping him busy.

Irina nodded and said, “It is indeed difficult for him to leave. Actually, I didn’t come here today at Teacher Tie’s behest. It was my own idea.”

Li Qian was a bit baffled, unsure of her purpose. He assumed a posture of listening intently, inviting her to continue.

“My mother, Han Ke, and Teacher Tie are a good match. They have feelings for each other, but Teacher Tie’s Pet Beast was severely injured, preventing him from breaking through to the Emperor Level. He feels he’s not good enough for my mother, so he has never taken that step.” Irina’s tone was light, but her words made Li Qian’s brain short-circuit.

“Your mother?” Li Qian’s eyes widened as he stared at Irina in disbelief.

Irina knew that Li Qian had most likely misunderstood, so she explained, “My father passed away when I was very young. I don’t want my mother to grow old alone. She deserves to have her own life, her own happiness.”

Hearing Irina’s explanation, Li Qian nodded to himself. ’This girl is pretty open-minded. Not only is she not against this, she’s actively trying to make it happen.’

And after her explanation, Li Qian also roughly understood why Elder Tie hadn’t taken that step.

If he couldn’t break through to the Emperor Level, Elder Tie probably didn’t have much time left. He likely didn’t want to hold Ms. Han Ke back.

“I understand. So, what should I do? Do I need to go with you to see Elder Tie?” Li Qian was naturally happy to see this sort of thing succeed.

“No need. I’ve already brought his Pet Beast, the Golden Pearl Bud.” As Irina spoke, she pulled a special Beast Taming Ball from her pocket.

Looking at the Beast Taming Ball Irina produced, Li Qian’s mind went a little blank. ’Does she have to be so decisive? Just pulling it out like that.’

Moreover, the fact that she could produce this Beast Taming Ball showed that her relationship with Elder Tie was definitely not simple. Otherwise, there was no way she could have gotten her hands on his Golden Pearl Bud.

Furthermore, the fact that she came to him proved that Elder Tie must have told her about this. Otherwise, she never would have been able to find him here.

Taking a deep look at the Beast Taming Ball in Irina’s hand, Li Qian didn’t hesitate and took it. As he accepted it, he laid out some necessary conditions. “It’s my honor to help Elder Tie’s Pet Beast advance, and it’s a promise I made. Elder Tie saved my life, so this can be considered my way of repaying him. However, evolving a Golden Pearl Bud into a Tidal Sea Spirit is no easy task…”

“Just tell me what materials and conditions are needed.” Irina understood Li Qian’s meaning and said directly, “Teacher Tie can’t leave his post. I can act as his full representative in coordinating with you.”

Hearing this, Li Qian didn’t hold back and listed most of the conditions required for the evolution. Of course, he kept some of the Evolution Materials to himself, planning to acquire them on his own. Repaying Elder Tie was one thing, but it was also important to be cautious. After all, you can never be too careful.

After listening to Li Qian’s conditions, Irina nodded without hesitation. After a moment of thought, she gave him a timeframe. “Give me three days. I’ll have everything you need ready.”

With that, she turned to leave, but just then, her gaze suddenly sharpened and fixed on a certain direction.

Irina looked toward the balcony and said flatly, “It seems this place has been unoccupied for a while. To think there are rats in the dorm. Junior Brother, let this senior sister help you clean up. Consider it a small favor in return.”

Hearing this, Li Qian was confused, not understanding what she meant. But when he saw where her gaze was fixed, he suddenly had a bad feeling. He was about to say something, but it was too late.

With a sudden flick of her finger, a gust of powerful Wind shot toward a hidden spot on the balcony. Then, under Li Qian’s strange gaze, a miserable scream suddenly rang out.

Having done this with an air of casual indifference, Irina rose, her expression blank. Her voice remained calm, with almost no fluctuation in her tone. “Since we’ve reached an agreement, I won’t disturb your rest any longer.”

As her voice faded, the senior sister from the Gaochang Race strode out of Li Qian’s dorm without hesitation, her long legs carrying her away.

Li Qian gave her a quick goodbye, then hurried over and stuck his head out over the balcony to see. The sight that greeted him left him not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

There, Lu Tianjiao was spread-eagled on the ground below, a look of utter despair on his face.

Fortunately, his dorm was only on the third floor. It wasn’t a very high fall, and with Lu Tianjiao’s physical constitution, he would definitely be fine.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t be staring blankly at the sky right now; he’d be howling in agony.

’Still, it’s good that this happened. It’ll teach him a lesson and stop him from hiding on the balcony to eavesdrop whenever he feels like it.’
