Trash-Picking Talent Is Weak? But I Pick Up Traits

Chapter 97 : Chapter 97



Chapter 97 : Chapter 97

Chapter 97: If He Were Still Alive, Not Even the Chickens and Dogs of Your Murong Family Would Be Spared!

After all, what had just happened could not really be blamed on the little black dog.

It knew nothing.

And besides, Luo Qingya found it rather endearing. She simply could not bring herself to be angry with it.

What followed was the other students choosing their beast pets.

Murong Wanting, naturally, became the second to choose and selected the powerful earth drake.

However, the earth drake would rather die than submit.

Its gaze remained fixed on Luo Qingya, looking utterly aggrieved, as though Luo Qingya had abandoned it.

Murong Wanting broke down on the spot once again.

After making a huge scene in front of the earth drake’s cage, she was scolded by Murong Xuantian yet again. In the end, she had no choice but to contract a fox demon instead.

As for the earth drake, it refused to acknowledge anyone at all.

It simply stared at Luo Qingya with eager, pitiful eyes.

That left Murong Xuantian smiling helplessly.

“It seems that what is meant to be yours will eventually be yours. I’ll raise this earth drake for now.”

“Three hundred years from now, you can come and contract it again!”

Murong Xuantian said to Luo Qingya with a smile.

The moment those words were spoken, everyone became envious again.

Three hundred years of Murong Xuantian personally raising it. Good heavens, that meant Murong Xuantian would be footing the bill for all the resources over those three hundred years.

When the time came, Luo Qingya would only need to take it over.

Murong Xuantian was treating Luo Qingya even better than his own granddaughter.

Naturally, this entire scene made Murong Wanting so furious she nearly ground her teeth to dust.

But soon, her expression turned cold.

“Three hundred years? I refuse to believe that old man can protect you for three hundred years straight. As long as I find a chance, you can just wait to die, Luo Qingya!”

“As long as you die, I’ll still be the most talented Beast Tamer!”

Murong Wanting’s tone was icy.

……

“All right, class is over. Everyone, head back!”

After everyone had chosen their beast pets, Murong Xuantian finally spoke.

But at that very moment, a sudden change occurred!

Buzz!!

A wave of invisible fluctuations abruptly enveloped the entire plaza.

“Woof! Woof! Woof!”

The little black dog seemed to sense something and began barking anxiously in Luo Qingya’s arms.

At the same time, strands of black energy began seeping out of its body. Unfortunately, that black energy was so faint that no one noticed it at all.

It was so faint that it was practically impossible to detect.

“This aura... Not good, it’s a teleportation formation.”

The instant he sensed it, Murong Xuantian’s expression changed drastically.

Buzz!!

But before he could think any further, every student on the plaza vanished from the spot in an instant!

The moment he saw that, Murong Xuantian’s expression turned grave.

The entirety of Imperial Capital University was protected by a peak tenth-tier formation.

That formation could be said to be one of the strongest formations in the entire history of the human race.

If someone wanted to use a Teleportation Crystal to spirit away everyone present, then unless that Teleportation Crystal was also at the peak tenth tier, it would be impossible.

But a Teleportation Crystal of that grade had never appeared before.

And it was not supposed to be possible in the first place.

That was because the difficulty of refining a peak tenth-tier Teleportation Crystal was more than ten times greater than building a peak tenth-tier defensive formation.

After all, one was meant to be carried around and used anywhere, while the other was fixed in place.

The difference in difficulty was naturally immeasurable.

“Could it be a peak Martial Saint with a spatial-type trait?”

Suddenly, Murong Xuantian frowned.

Otherwise, he simply could not explain how someone had teleported them away. Of course, there was also the possibility of a genius with a gold spatial trait, but the odds of that were far lower than a peak Martial Saint possessing a spatial-type trait.

Spatial-type traits were exceedingly rare to begin with.

Within all of Huaxia, among the recorded geniuses with teleportation-type traits, the highest grade was only purple. There was not even a silver one, let alone a gold one.

Of course, just because no such expert had appeared among the human race did not mean none existed anywhere on Earth.

Among the other races emerging from the Subterranean Caverns, every kind of race imaginable could be found. It was possible that somewhere on Earth, a particularly powerful cavern had appeared, and within it, one of those races possessed such a genius or expert.

“I need to inform the Dragon God immediately!”

Murong Xuantian took a deep breath and quickly initiated a video call to the Dragon God.

And the Dragon God was none other than the strongest expert of the human race, the only Martial God—Long Jue.

As the connection came through, the projection of a middle-aged man with sword-like brows and star-bright eyes appeared before Murong Xuantian.

……

After hearing the news, Long Jue frowned as well.

“You’re saying all the students in your class were teleported away?”

“Among your students, the most unusual one is that Luo Qingya girl. Could their target have been Luo Qingya?”

“Could that girl possibly have something special about her?”

“Otherwise, why would they go after Luo Qingya instead of Xiao Xuan?”

Long Jue asked Murong Xuantian.

As the strongest expert of the human race and the one who controlled the Human Race Supreme AI Core, he naturally knew everything happening at Imperial Capital University.

Especially after Xiao Xuan had caused such an enormous uproar, there was no way he would not know.

“You’re right. Although that girl’s gold talent is powerful, it still shouldn’t be more important than Xiao Xuan’s.”

“But right now, the most urgent matter is finding whoever did this!”

“If they can strike once, who’s to say they can’t strike a second or third time?”

“If we don’t deal with them quickly, how can the safety of our human race’s geniuses be guaranteed?”

Murong Xuantian asked anxiously.

“You brat, are you really that anxious for all the students—or just for your own granddaughter?”

Long Jue, however, did not appear especially concerned. Instead, he teased Murong Xuantian with a smile.

“Dragon God, you jest. Murong Wanting may be my granddaughter, but in my eyes, she is no different from the other students.”

Murong Xuantian directly shook his head.

The moment Murong Wanting was mentioned, a trace of disgust appeared in his eyes.

She was practically cut from the same mold as her mother.

She was sharp-tongued, petty, and drunk on her own small successes. Less than a year after returning to the Murong Family, she had already thrown the household into utter chaos.

If not for that woman back then, his former daughter-in-law would never have died.

If not for his worthless son, he would have thrown that woman into prison long ago.

“Really? No different from Luo Qingya either?”

Long Jue spoke with meaningful calm.

The moment those words came out, Murong Xuantian’s pupils contracted slightly.

Then a bitter smile appeared on his face.

“So nothing can be hidden from you, Dragon God.”

“That’s right. The one I care most about is Qingya. In my eyes, she is the only granddaughter I, Murong Xuantian, have!”

Murong Xuantian said seriously.

“Yun Ning was his daughter.”

“If he were still alive and found out that your son, Murong Kuang, had treated his daughter that way, not a single soul in your Murong Family would be left alive.”

“Still, I have to admit, that girl Yun Ning was clear-headed. The moment she realized Murong Kuang had changed his heart, she quietly arranged everything in advance.”

“It was only recently that you and I discovered her.”

Long Jue looked at Murong Xuantian and spoke calmly.

“That girl was clever from the day she was born. I failed her!”

“And I failed Brother Luo as well!”

Murong Xuantian said bitterly.
