Be A Global Beast Master By System Bugs

C28 - The First Meeting with the Principal

"No! I don't recognize it! You've mistaken me for someone else!"

Zhou Mu's head shook like a bobblehead, leaving Goldie completely baffled.

What happened to the deep bond between master and servant?

What about the love and affection?

In just a few minutes, he's pretending not to know her?

"Boss..."

Goldie almost called out instinctively, but then a light bulb went off in his head.

Could this woman... possibly be too formidable even for the boss to handle?

"Boss, what's with the act? You look ridiculous!"

Goldie didn't hold back his mockery, acting as though he truly didn't recognize Zhou Mu.

"And you?"

The woman turned her gaze to Hai Ming and inquired.

"I'm an orphan!"

Hai Ming declared with conviction. After a brief pause, he added, "And so is he!"

Zhou Mu: "..."

"Enough with the charade. Your stories are already legendary across the university. The sole heir of the Zhou family, with elders wielding absolute influence over both the military and commerce in Ambergrasp province. A prodigy of this generation, having bonded with two lordly spirit animals, the dragon and phoenix species. As long as you don't meet an untimely end, you're destined for greatness."

The woman's laughter was light and airy, and as she moved, the atmosphere seemed to shift. "You're not too shabby either. A support spirit animal with such a rare skill—if nurtured properly, you'll have the elite vying for your allegiance."

"Thank you for the vote of confidence."

Zhou Mu nodded, shooting Goldie a knowing look, prompting him to leap from the woman's embrace.

"Heh, such a dull man. But I'm in no rush; our paths will cross again."

The woman sent a flirtatious look Zhou Mu's way before sashaying off.

"Tsk tsk, Uncle Zhou's going to be one lucky man with her..."

Watching the woman's retreating figure, Hai Ming quickly wiped the drool from his lips.

Caught between frustration at unmet expectations and the envy of wishing to be in another's shoes!

"You're overthinking it. I won't be going home for a whole year."

Zhou Mu rolled his eyes and turned his attention to Goldie on the table, asking, "So, what have you discovered?"

Goldie might have seemed cheap, but it was far from foolish. In fact, Zhou Mu suspected its intelligence might even surpass Hai Ming's by a fraction. Its proactive approach toward that woman likely meant it had discovered something significant.

"Boss, that woman is quite unique. She carries a blend of auras from various special spirit animals. It's faint, yet distinctly pure. I sense an aura that resonates with my own bloodline," Goldie explained, prompting an epiphany in Zhou Mu.

The woman bore a mix of spirit animal auras, one of which resonated with Goldie's bloodline—undoubtedly phoenix blood.

"How intriguing," Zhou Mu mused, a smirk playing on his lips. "I was just fretting over where to find phoenix bloodline, and here it is, delivered right to me."

He had a new plan now—to engage with this Demolishor and uncover her capabilities.

Shortly after the woman departed, the eccentric boss served up three portions of fish. Despite his oddities, the boss's cooking was exceptional.
