Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 299: Chapter 245 Ji Xiao’an Chapter 299: Chapter 245 Ji Xiao’an After leaving the Book Tower, Su Yuan didn’t plan to head directly to the Ancient Forbidden Zone because he had some other matters to take care of first.

After returning to his dormitory, Su Yuan contacted Xia Yue to inform her that she no longer needed to keep an eye out for space Star Cards for him.

Given the space Star Cards Su Yuan had now, except for pure space attack skills, other aspects were already sufficient.

The demand for Blue Grade space Star Cards was no longer as high as before.

As for Purple Grade space Star Cards, even if they existed, they were beyond Xia Yue’s reach.

Although Xia Yue wasn’t at the academy at the moment, she immediately notified the Beidou Consortium’s Demon Capital branch to deliver the tens of thousands of Cent Star Stones Su Yuan had reserved to him that day.

Xia Yue, “Sorry, I couldn’t help with the space Star Cards…”

Xia Yue seemed a bit regretful that she couldn’t find the Star Cards for Su Yuan.

Su Yuan, “It’s fine, you’ve already done enough by handling so many things for me.”

Xia Yue, “That’s nothing, just a piece of cake~ As for the space Star Cards…

it’s just that I’ve been out training recently and couldn’t keep a close eye on it.”

Su Yuan, “Hahaha, no worries, I’ve already had some breakthroughs on my own.”

Xia Yue, “Hmm…

alright, if you have such matters in the future, just count on me!”

Su Yuan, “No problem.”

…

On the west side of Great Flame, in West Pole City, inside an old-fashioned café.

Seeing the affirmative reply on her phone, Xia Yue couldn’t help but show a bit of joy in her eyes.

Opposite Xia Yue sat a high ponytail girl in a black and red dress, who looked quite similar to Xia Yue.

She had already quietly leaned in to look at the screen without Xia Yue noticing.

“Little Yue, who are you chatting with?”

“Ah?!” Xia Yue’s heart skipped a beat when she saw Xia Xuan almost in front of the screen.

She quickly clacked her phone shut, “It’s just a friend from the academy…”

“Oh?” Xia Xuan slightly tilted the corners of her mouth.

“Just chatting with a friend?

Why are you so nervous?”

Xia Yue’s face froze slightly and she became a bit flustered and exasperated, “Sis, it’s very rude to peek at someone’s messages!”

“Just showing a bit of care for my adorable little sister,” Xia Xuan said with a normal look and a faint smile.

“Besides, I didn’t really peek, or else why would I warn you first?”

“You…!” Xia Yue was both embarrassed and angry, but she couldn’t argue with Xia Xuan.

Their soft bickering naturally attracted the attention of many in the café.

One pretty girl alone was enough, but two similar-looking girls with different styles drew even more attention, appealing to both men and women.

After all, everyone loves beautiful things.

Just as the two sisters were joking around, Xia Xuan noticed two sharply dressed handsome guys nearby seemingly planning to come over.

“Let’s go, Little Yue.

Now that we’re rested, let’s get going.” Xia Xuan stood up and slightly withdrew her smile, “Your training trip is just one stop left…”

“Yes!”

Xia Yue’s expression also became serious at her sister’s arrangement.

She nodded heavily, glanced once more at the message on her phone, and then tucked it into her Space Ring as she followed Xia Xuan out.

…

Demon Capital Academy, in the dormitory.

After replying to Xia Yue, Su Yuan took out another Space Ring.

This ring looked quite rough, a common product on the market.

Su Yuan had no idea what was inside.

At the moment, Su Yuan held the ring, deep in thought.

“Since the school year has started, I can make a trip now.”

The ring belonged to Uncle Ji Ping, who died during a trip to Black Snow Country.

Back when he returned from the Snow Burial Mountain Range with Bai Ze, it was still summer break, and the academy hadn’t opened yet.

Su Yuan had originally arranged with Situ Qingyin to visit Northern Zhangzhou College after school started to give this ring to Uncle Ji Ping’s son.

However, because Su Yuan later needed to go to the Southern Islands, this matter was put on hold.

Now that he was back, he intended to resolve it first, as the Ancient Forbidden Zone could consume an unknown amount of time.

And considering how dangerous the Ancient Forbidden Zone was, with extremely high risks, he might not return intact, leaving this “family duty” unfulfilled.

Thinking this, Su Yuan texted Situ Qingyin.

Soon, Situ Qingyin replied, saying they could depart tomorrow.

Seeing this, Su Yuan nodded slightly, having set the time.

Then, Su Yuan immersed himself in the Guardian Beast Space.

As early as the day before, Ruan Ruan had completely devoured the Source Pearl.

However, the energy in the Source Pearl was astonishing, causing Ruan Ruan to fall into a deep sleep after consuming so much energy at once.

Su Yuan had placed it back in the Guardian Beast Space.

At present, Su Yuan could sense increasingly powerful ripples emanating from Ruan Ruan in the Guardian Beast Space.

It seemed certain that once it fully digested the energy and awoke, it would undergo significant growth.

After closely observing for a while and seeing no issues, Su Yuan felt relieved and withdrew his mind from the Guardian Beast Space.

“Never thought this trip to the Southern Islands would make me a half-qualified Beast Tamer…”

Su Yuan shook his head slightly.

Even so, Su Yuan had no intention of contracting another Guardian Beast.

Firstly, it was rare to find one with immense potential and rapid growth like Ruan Ruan.

Secondly, given he was already struggling to enhance himself, Su Yuan lacked the energy and resources to cultivate other Guardian Beasts.

Additionally, having one beast solely enjoy the Guardian Beast Space’s benefits would result in faster growth compared to sharing it among multiple beasts.

Historically, this reason saw the emergence of the “Single Guardian Beast” school among Beast Tamers.

Although the “Single Guardian Beast” school produced stronger individuals, they lacked the comprehensive abilities seen in those with multiple beasts.

Consequently, this school became obsolete.

Moreover, they were poorly viewed by the “Multi-Tamed Beast” school from the start.

The reason was simple.

Although there were occasional prodigies among them, most Single Guardian Beast tamers chose this path out of necessity due to insufficient spiritual power, unable to become “true” Multi-Tamed Beast Tamers.

Shaking his head to clear his thoughts, Su Yuan headed to the second-floor Cultivation Room to begin his training…

Early the next day, Situ Qingyin arrived at Demon Capital Academy’s gate in her flashy limited-edition sports car.

Today, Situ Qingyin wore a cool summer outfit and a floral long dress, although she seemed a bit tired.

Likely because her Artifact Refining had gone well, her mood appeared fairly positive.

“Seems like your Star Device refining went well?” Su Yuan asked.

Hearing this, Situ Qingyin’s eyes brightened.

“Yes, thanks to the Snow Crystal Stone you found, the refining process was even smoother than anticipated.

I just finished a part of it a few days ago, and the results are better than expected.”

Su Yuan smiled, “Maybe your hard work made everything luckier.”

“Heehee…” Situ Qingyin laughed with her hands behind her back.

Su Yuan said, “Let’s go.

I’ve already booked the tickets.”

“Okay~”

They got in the car.

Situ Qingyin stepped on the gas, heading to the airport and then flying to Zhangzhou.

Demon Capital Academy was in the southeast, and Zhangzhou was in the north near North Pole City, almost spanning half of Great Flame from south to north, making it relatively far.

After a day and a half, they finally reached Zhangzhou City at night.

After resting in a hotel for the night, the next morning, they hurried to Zhangzhou Academy.

With Su Yuan presenting his student ID and Situ Qingyin her Artifact Refining Master’s credential, getting into Zhangzhou Academy was easy.

In fact, due to their statuses, Zhangzhou Academy even assigned a student council member to receive them.

“So, Student Su and Master Situ, you’re here to find a new student?”

Liu Lin, a slim girl with glasses and one of the vice presidents of Zhangzhou Academy’s student council, asked curiously after hearing Su Yuan and Situ Qingyin’s explanation.

Who could these talented individuals be seeking among the new students?

It was October, just over a month since school started, and Liu Lin had participated in freshman reception, so she was familiar with many new students.

Su Yuan nodded, “Yes, but we don’t have this student’s exact name.”

Liu Lin looked puzzled, “Hmm?”

Su Yuan explained, “We met this student’s father during an overseas trip.

Tragically, he passed away, and asked us to deliver some of his belongings to his son just before he died.”

To avoid complications, Su Yuan straightforwardly explained the situation.

These details were also necessary for the academy to be aware of, facilitating mental health support and resource assistance for the student.

“That’s the situation!” Liu Lin’s expression shifted upon hearing it.

“So, we’ll need your help finding him, Vice President Liu.”

Liu Lin responded earnestly, “No problem.

It’s our duty.

Let’s head to the registrar’s office.”

“Sure!”

…

In the registrar’s office, with the help of the staff, they quickly identified Ji Ping’s son by cross-referencing surnames and backgrounds.

“Ji Xiao’an, it should be him,” Liu Lin pointed to a name on the computer list.

Su Yuan and Situ Qingyin nodded, reading his details closely.

[Name: Ji Xiao’an]

[Student ID: No.

2023****0418]

[Entrance Exam Rank: 43]

[Class: Class 6]

[Evaluation: Ice Element Star Card Master, notable for excellent Star Power, skilled with longswords, calm demeanor, and strong observational skills in battle.]

…

“This student is quite outstanding…” Liu Lin remarked, surprised.

While not one of the elite few she knew, ranking 43rd in the entrance exam was impressive.

Su Yuan nodded.

Unlike Three Capital Four Extremes College, top academies in the Twelve States usually admitted around 5,000 students.

Ji Xiao’an didn’t only enter Zhangzhou Academy but ranked in its top 50, a significant achievement for any student!

No wonder Ji Ping was proud of his son, working hard to provide him with a Blue Card despite frequenting dangerous territories.

As it turned out, his son indeed was remarkable.

Liu Lin asked the teacher beside her, “Teacher Yu, could you bring up his schedule?”

“Hmm…

let me see,” Teacher Yu checked, “Oh?

He’s currently in class, at Field 7, for a practical session.”

“Thank you!” Liu Lin expressed gratitude, then looked at Su Yuan and Situ Qingyin.

“Student Su, Master Situ, shall we head over now?”

Su Yuan and Situ Qingyin nodded, “Thanks for the help.”

“It’s our duty.”
