Cultivation Simulator: Shocking the Academy

The blond man nodded slightly at Nalan Qing, his expression unwavering. With his level of power, he had no need to worry about future wealth and honor. As long as he showed a little interest, countless families and organizations would invite him to join them.

Nalan Qing's face turned serious, immediately adopting an admiring expression, "Esteemed Lord Dog, I've long admired your distinguished reputation. First, congratulations on becoming a Beast King warrior, which is the pride of our entire Muni City."

In fact, he didn't know Dog at all before this.

After a pause, his voice suddenly turned gentle, and he seemed a bit embarrassed, "Lord Dog, may I have the audacity to invite you to join our Nalan Clan..."

"Hmm?"

Dog gave him a strange look, then glanced at Parkinson, who appeared indifferent. Under everyone's eager gaze, Dog slowly shook his head, "I'm sorry, I have no intention of leaving my mentor for now."

"Mentor?"

Nalan Qing was just feeling disappointed when Dog's words caught him off guard.

"May I ask who your mentor is..."

"It is indeed Mentor Parkinson."

Facing everyone's astonished looks, Dog said calmly, yet the hint of respect between his brows was apparent to everyone.

A single statement caused a stir among the crowd. Dog's frankness shocked the onlookers. Although they knew Parkinson was a senior Spirit Master, most people didn't realize that he was also a Beast Soul Powerhouse and a substitute elder of the Divine Concealment Hall. With such status, having a disciple who is a Beast King warrior was hardly surprising.

"Lord Parkinson, is this... is this true?"

Nalan Qing was dumbfounded.

Parkinson smiled serenely, saying, "Indeed. It's just that Dog has been away for so long, not known to everyone. He specially returned to see me after his accomplishments."

The crowd murmured in realization, and when they looked at Dog again, their eyes were filled with a newfound admiration.

Clearly having a distinguished mentor nearby, yet choosing to cultivate alone and succeed as a Beast King warrior upon return, such traits were truly admirable. Naturally, Nalan Qing admired such talent even more.

"Truly, a master nurtures outstanding disciples. Lord Parkinson, you are indeed a blessing for our Muni City."

Parkinson chuckled, shaking his head slightly, then glanced at Su Chen, who was full of disdain, before calming his expression. He walked up to Su Chen with a few steps, looked into those once-again normal dark eyes, seemingly puzzled, and said, "At this moment, there seems to be nothing unusual. Why then was the power you unleashed earlier so strange and domineering?"

Dog also stepped forward, standing respectfully beside Parkinson, "Mentor."

Su Chen looked at the aged face without hostility, his heart calming, and asked, "Lord Parkinson, what are you talking about?"

Parkinson was stunned for a moment, then laughed, though his laughter carried an ambiguous meaning, "It's nothing, young man. Your name is Su Chen, right?"

"You know my name?"

Su Chen was even more surprised. Phoenix held his hand tightly, afraid of provoking the hostility of two great powerhouses again.

Nalan Kang's eagle eyes were cold and vicious as he looked at the two, but due to Parkinson's presence, he could only swallow his anger.

Brat, I don't care what sinister Cultivation Technique you practiced. The grudge formed today, I will settle it eventually!

"Come with me, and I will explain everything to you slowly."

Parkinson smiled, casually pulling Su Chen's hand, and under Nalan Qing's dumbfounded gaze, headed toward the Spirit Palace.
