The Strongest Dragon in the Era of Beast Taming

Chapter 711: Chapter 705: Taking Charge of a Faction

“The injury of the Gold Blade Dragon is quite serious and requires urgent treatment, I will take my leave first.”

After speaking, Gees Goldsmith summoned a fierce bird clad in golden feathers with wings spanning about ten meters and without looking back, mounted it and rode away.

“Did I go overboard?”

Watching Gees Goldsmith’s hasty retreat, David Jones thought to himself.

Seeing this, Lilith Hoyle spoke up to remind him, “Did you notice anything amiss?”

At these words, Grau and Rosalind Louise were slightly taken aback, their gazes filled with confusion.

David Jones, however, smiled confidently, looking in the direction where Gees Goldsmith had disappeared and commented.

“Well, Director Goldsmith’s performance was too deliberate, it’s impossible that an Epic Trainer couldn’t even suppress a bit of blood!”

“Besides that, there’s something quite strange; the psychic waves in Director Goldsmith’s performance during the battle didn’t quite match the emotions he displayed, giving one a subtle sensation of relief, right, Rainbow?”

David Jones turned his head to look at Rainbow.

“Yip!” (That’s right!)

Rainbow raised her dragon claw.

Hearing this, Grau and Rosalind Louise looked at each other, still somewhat puzzled.

Lilith Hoyle nodded in satisfaction and reassured, “Exactly, being able to see through this and defeat Gees Goldsmith means you’re now ready to graduate from apprenticeship!”

“Defeating an Epic Trainer is not that big of a deal, I still have much to learn from my teacher,” David Jones calmly stated.

“How arrogant!” Rosalind was stunned as she looked at David Jones.

Although David Jones spoke modestly, his plain words conveyed an exasperating confidence and pride.

When would she be able to express such self-assured words in front of her teacher?

“Roar.”

The Gluttonous Beast lowered its head, somewhat disappointed.

In this bout, it was the second to enter but didn’t expect the opponent to concede directly, robbing it of even the chance to fight.

“Yip.” (Next time, it’s your turn.)

Rainbow patted the Gluttonous Beast’s neck.

After discussing the matter of Peony Colledge, Lilith Hoyle shifted the topic.

“The Federation of Trainer Guild has set a ten-year plan to join forces with the Holy Europe Alliance to exterminate the Yamanano Brahma Dragon lurking in Sakura Soul Country. Are you interested in participating?”

David Jones shook his head, his eyes reflecting curiosity, “Is the Yamanano Brahma Dragon so troublesome that even the Federation of Trainer Guild and the Holy Europe Alliance together need to prepare for ten years?”

“Just facing a Yamanano Brahma Dragon that has stepped into the Semi-Immortal Level requires the Federation of Trainer Guild to expend great effort, not to mention the three Heavenly Soul Masters and a legion of Spirit Masters under its command. Without sufficient preparation, few legends in our country dare to risk it themselves,” Lilith Hoyle commented indifferently.

The Sakura Soul Country isn’t considered a small nation either, with no lack of depth in its domestic foundations.

Before the news broke, no country would have thought a single Yamanano Brahma Dragon could overthrow the Sakura Soul Country; at most, it would wreak havoc domestically before retreating.

But reality proved stranger, and the Sakura Soul Country, which had been fighting for a place among the six-pole of the world, was just gone like that, leaving a huge mess for other nations!

Fortunately, there was a consensus among the six nations that no matter what, the Yamanano Brahma Dragon, The Dragon of Destruction, must be annihilated, otherwise it would surely become a major national threat!

Lilith Hoyle patted David Jones on the shoulder with great expectation, “Nurture the Dragon Egg of Doom well, if you can train it to the Semi-Immortal Level, there will be no place in the world you cannot go.”

David Jones looked at his teacher who was walking on air in front of him, less than one and a half meters tall, with an especially stern face, and pursed his lips, decisively suppressing the overwhelming sense of incongruity in his heart.

“Understood, teacher.”

“Oh, I almost forgot something,” Lilith Hoyle blinked, “As the current Rosewood Leader, you have the qualifications to take charge of Rosewood College and become its Head.”

At these words, David Jones’s heart skipped a beat.

After all, Rosewood College was the nationally recognized holy land of Pharmacy, and if he could become the helmsman of Rosewood College, leveraging its resources to break through to Legend would be a piece of cake, and he might even hope to advance to Immortal within a hundred years.

This opportunity was extremely rare!

But thinking of his current strength, David Jones quickly regained his composure and tentatively asked, “Teacher, does becoming the Head of Rosewood require one to be a Legend?”

“Of course,” Lilith Hoyle stated confidently, “With your talent, becoming a Legend is not difficult, and if you wish, I can help you take charge of Rosewood College in the future.”

As an Alchemy Grandmaster with high standing and significant influence, even though Rosewood College was dominated by the Harvey’s Lineage, she was still confident in pushing her disciple to the top position.

After hesitating for a moment, David Jones shook his head, “Teacher, let’s discuss this matter after the disciple has broken through to Legend. For now, I only want to finish my university studies smoothly under your guidance and graduate successfully.”

“Study?” Lilith Hoyle looked at David Jones earnestly.

There had been no record of a national Epic powerhouse being a university student.

After all, as long as an Epic powerhouse had a clean background and was willing to take a position, it would be easy to obtain a faculty post at any of the Flowery Kingdom’s Big Five or top eight colleges, or even become the head of any first-rate Beast Taming College.

“With your current strength, continuing your studies is just a waste of time. If you do not want a position at Rosewood College, you could choose to be a deputy president in a Level I city, and after familiarizing yourself with the affairs for a year or two, you can be promoted to Guild Master at any time,” Lilith Hoyle reminded.

“The Beast Refining Tower is suitable for cultivation; I want to stay in the college and cultivate for a while longer, plus Dr. Tracy Harvey and I have an Evolution project that we need to research,” David Jones said frankly.

More than status, he was clear about what he needed most at the moment.

Currently, merely Strengthening his Pets and the Dragon Crystal took up half of his time every day, with the remaining time divided between Pharmacy, Arcane Star, and Tigrex Dossier cultivation – leaving no time to handle the affairs of a city.

Besides, the position of Trainer Guild Master involved the livelihood security of the entire city and the allocation of Pet Resources, and without adequate preparation, David Jones was not ready to compete for the position of Guild Master yet.

After all, he was just an ordinary Trainer with almost no experience in handling governmental affairs; it was all too easy to end up with a layman commanding experts.

“Since you have made the decision to continue your studies, as your teacher, I can only offer my support.”

As Lilith Hoyle spoke, her tone paused slightly, “However, the significance behind an Epic powerhouse is enormous. No city in the country would refuse the addition of an Epic powerhouse, so it’s best that you prepare yourself in advance. The Federation of Trainer Guild does not approve of all Epic powerhouses clustering in Level I cities either.”

David Jones nodded slightly, indicating he understood.

Lilith Hoyle summoned the Three-legged Raven, “Next, I plan to make a trip to Peony City. Will you join me, or will you apply for the Imperial Palace Pavilion membership through Waterland Trainer Guild to the Federation of Trainer Guild?”

“It’s rare for me to return to Waterland City, I would like to stay in my hometown for a few more days,” David Jones declined politely.

Lilith Hoyle said no more, turning into a red streak with the Three-legged Raven and disappearing into the sky, inadvertently leaving Grau behind.

Grau: “???”
