Chapter 98 - 98: The Tragic Goldy
At this moment, David Jones felt extremely conflicted.
However, he couldnt say that he regretted his decision.
After all, Rosewood College, as the holy land for Pharmacists in the country, would definitely have a top-notch elixir like the Star-Condensing Elixir.
He just felt a bit regretful for missing out on such an opportunity.
If I just nod my head and dont go to Dragonsoar Academy to enroll, can I take this elixir away?
David Jones was silent for a moment, and then tentatively asked.
Stan Dragonjoys face suddenly stiffened, as his earlier offer to nod was not meant in this way.
As long as you come with me to Dragonsoar Academy to enroll right now, this Star-Condensing Elixir will be yours, he explained, emphasizing every word. Are you kidding? If he dared to give away the Star-Condensing Elixir just like that, his uncle would beat him half to death when he returned.
Enroll right now? David Jones asked dubiously.
Thats right. This is this years enrollment letter. With your current strength, continuing to study in senior high school would be a waste of time.
Stan Dragonjoy looked at the Rainbow floating in the air, his eyes full of admiration.
After hesitating for a moment, David Jones took a deep breath, and said in a relaxed tone, Sorry, my goal is still Rosewood College.
Upon hearing this, a look of surprise appeared on Stan Dragonjoys face, as if David Jones refusal was unexpected.
Dont you want to reconsider?
Sorry.
Stan Dragonjoys face showed a hint of regret and bitterness.
Was Rosewood College really that great?
There were actually Trainers who could resist the temptation of the Star-Condensing Elixir.
Watching Stan Dragonjoys disappearing figure, a trace of regret flashed in David Jones eyes.
The Dragonsoar Academy, which was famous for its Dragon-Type Pet Beasts, had never been within his selection range, since it would be too easy to expose his Second Talent.
Unlike other Training universities, most of the Trainers who entered Dragonsoar Academy had contracted Dragon-Type Pet Beasts.
With his strong affinity for the Dragon-Type, he estimated that he would be exposed in a few days at the academy.
Although being one of the Five Greats, Rosewood College would also have this possibility, as long as there werent too many Dragon-Type Pet Beasts, he could still cover it up.
Forget it, theres no use thinking too much. The most important thing now is to break through to Class III of my Arcane Star, David Jones closed his eyes and continued his cultivation.
On the other side, Stan Dragonjoy looked at the cellphone in his hand, his expression constantly changing. In the end, he gritted his teeth and directly dialed his uncles number.
*beep-beep-beep*
Hello, whats the result? Elijah Dragonjoy asked curiously.
Stan Dragonjoy couldnt help but swallow his own saliva, and then closed his eyes, saying in a low voice, Teacher, David Jones refused. His target college is Rosewood College.
Even if I took out the Star-Condensing Elixir, he still refused!
Rosewood College? Indeed, its a good school. Elijah Dragonjoy sighed as if he didnt mind David Jones refusal at all.
Hearing his words, cold sweat suddenly broke out on Stan Dragonjoys forehead.
He knew his teachers disposition all too well and realized that this time, his teacher was truly angry!
Since the enrollment failed, the Star-Condensing Elixir will be given to you. I only have one request: do not disappoint me in next years National College Competition.
*beep-beep-beep*
Is this a blessing in disguise? Looking at the disconnected phone, a trace of excitement gradually appeared on Stan Dragonjoys face.
Dragonsoar Academy, Vice-Presidents office.
Looking at the Black Dragon totem on the wall, a glimmer of desire and hope flashed across Elijah Dragonjoys eyes.
As long as the teacher takes that crucial step, the so-called Flowery Kingdoms Big Five will quickly become the Big Six!
Upon saying this, Elijah Dragonjoy couldnt help but look towards the distant Mountain Tigrex, where his teacher was in seclusion.
In the evening, David Jones, who was shopping for high-quality staple food for his pets, suddenly received a notice from the Waterland Trainer Guild.
Longriver City Dungeon, which has been delayed, is now open for reservation to Trainers within Sunbeam Province. Those who wish to explore can click here to sign up for the assessment. Those who pass the assessment will be granted access to explore the Dungeon. Resources obtained, other than pets, will be solely owned by the individual.
David Jones looked at the familiar message displayed on his phone, pondering. Wasnt this Longriver Citys Class III Dungeon supposed to be open earlier? How come it got postponed until now?
Could it be that the Guild suffered too many casualties exploring the dungeon, and now theyre recruiting cannon fodder? David Jones couldnt help but guess.
Meow. (Im hungry!)
Daphne whispered softly.
David Jones quickly checked the time on his phone, nodding; it was indeed a bit late!
Just hang on a bit, Ill prepare your dinner, David Jones gently soothed them before heading straight for the kitchen.
As for the Longriver City Dungeon message he just saw, he completely put it out of his mind.
Longriver City was not far from Waterland City, requiring only a two-hour train ride. Still, he had no plan of heading to Longriver Citys Dungeon.
After all, he didnt lack pet resources now, and there was no need to risk his own safety. It was more comfortable to stay at home and cultivate.
At dinner time
In front of David Jones was a plate of tomato scrambled eggs and chili stir-fried meat.
Meanwhile, an assortment of pet resources was placed on the dining table for the three pets, such as Rainbows Purple Herb, Lolos Evergreen Stalactites, Daphnes Fire Arcane Crystals, and Spirit Fish.
Not long after they started eating, Rainbow swallowed the Purple Herb in front of her and looked at David Jones with hopeful eyes.
We still have to wait a while; the Medium-sized Tiger isnt grilled yet! David Jones said with a smile.
Every time, it seemed that Rainbow and Daphne preferred eating his secret grilled fish over Purple Herbs and Fire Arcane Crystals.
The grilled fish was just a snack for them, not even able to increase their
Arcane Force by a bit.
Its fine; we can wait! Rainbow conveyed through telepathy.
Meow! o( V )o (I want grilled fish too!)
Daphnes eyes sparkled, and she began eating faster.
This time, the grilled fish is large enough, so would you like to try some? David Jones turned to look at Lolo.
It was weird; last time, the little guy saw Rainbow and Daphne enjoying themselves, and he shared his portion with them.
Chirp! (V)~* (Sure, but I want to eat that one!)
Following Lolos gaze, David Jones noticed Goldy, who was blowing bubbles in its huge fish tank.
As if aware of David Joness gaze, Goldy excitedly waved its tail, and its scales shone with golden light, like silk.
No, Goldy is your future companion, David Jones said, holding his forehead with his hand, somewhat speechlessly.
How could they all be like this? What kind of charm did Goldy have that made both Rainbow and you unable to forget about it?bender
Lolos eyes dimmed slightly before an excited smile appeared on his face.
Chirp! ( V *) (Ill try the grilled fish too!)
Seeing this, David Jones couldnt help but show a gratified smile.
Thats right, Goldys body is so small; how much meat can it have?
Not to mention his reluctance, even if they grilled Goldy, the meat on its body wouldnt be enough for the three of them to fill up their teeth gaps!!!
