Chapter 3: The Feeling of Being Chosen Is Really Good

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

After seeing all of this, Shen Fei’s heart tightened. This was because when he obtained the system, the information that the system transmitted also showed how important the first familiar that one obtained at the age of 18 was.

Logically speaking, everyone could only bind one familiar. Later on, when they became stronger, they would look for stronger familiars to change the binding.

Therefore, everyone would subconsciously choose more powerful familiars to nurture.

Qing Wuque would definitely choose that Scarlet Flame Lion, Shen Fei thought.

This was also the reason why he felt a sense of crisis.

However, he could not tell her that he was a familiar with a God-Tier Familiar Evolution System.

This was a system that could defy the heavens and change fate!

However, Shen Fei was a cat. He couldn’t communicate with Qing Wuque.

Therefore, in Shen Fei’s eyes, he had no ability to compete with the Scarlet Flame Lion.

When he felt Qing Wuque’s gaze fall on the Scarlet Flame Lion, her clear and bright eyes were clearly scrutinizing something… 

It was as if there was a bright light emitting from the depths of her eyes.

Was that desire? Was that joy?

Shen Fei did not know…

When he saw this, Shen Fei jumped out of Qing Wuque’s embrace at the right time. It was as if he suddenly felt relieved.

He had a God-Tier Familiar Evolution System, but he would never beg Qing Wuque to choose him.

He also had his own self-esteem! It was his self-esteem as a human, even if he was now a lowly and weak pet cat.

But if Qing Wuque unwaveringly chose him as her familiar…

Then he would definitely do the same as before, and protect this simple and kind girl with all his might.

If she didn’t choose Shen Fei, he wouldn’t lick her face either!

Shen Fei jumped down and turned his head to look at Qing Wuque with a lonely gaze.

“Meow (Sigh, since that’s the case, I’d better leave).”

Thinking of this, he dragged his body and prepared to leave.

He knew that Qing Wuque did not have to choose him. He also had the God-Tier Familiar Evolution System, so he did not have to beg Qing Wuque.

Just as he took two steps, an ethereal voice came from behind him, directly hitting Shen Fei’s soul.

“Kitten, where are you going…”

This was the voice of Qing Wuque!

Shen Fei’s cat body trembled. All that was left in his heart was shock.

‘This… What did this mean? Did she choose me? Or does she pity me?’

When he turned around, he saw that Qing Wuque had already walked to his side. She squatted down and tilted her head as she asked him.

Her eyes were filled with doting affection.

Before Shen Fei could react, he was already carried by a pair of delicate hands.

“Little guy, where do you want to go?”

Qing Wuque carried Shen Fei’s body. The woman and beast looked at each other…

Shen Fei looked at the pair of clear and bright eyes and his heart rate rose rapidly. Qing Wuque’s exquisite face was filled with a smile. The corners of her slightly raised mouth had a hint of gentleness.

“Wu Que, what are you doing?”

Behind her, Teacher Li Qian could not help but walk towards them. She was holding the Scarlet Flame Lion in her arms.

“You want to choose this cat as your familiar?”

“Don’t be silly. You have to know that this Scarlet Flame Lion can bring you much more value than this cat.”

Hearing this, Shen Fei also seemed to feel that it was very right. He began to use his hand to pull Qing Wuque’s hand, wanting her to let him down.

However, Qing Wuque held him in her arms again and gently stroked Shen Fei’s head.

She shook her head. “Teacher, I know, but I just want to choose this cat as my familiar.”

She looked at Shen Fei in her arms apologetically. “This cat can also become a very good familiar, right, Teacher?”

“You taught us before that all familiars can become human companions. As long as it is nurtured well, it will become a strong familiar.”

“Why can’t I choose this cat? I like it very much.”

Hearing Qing Wuque’s words, Shen Fei’s heart trembled.

This…

Was he firmly chosen?

So… The feeling of being firmly chosen by someone was so wonderful… 

But when he thought of Qing Wuque giving up the Tier 3 high-level Scarlet Flame Lion and choosing the Tier 1 low-level him…

Shen Fei still felt like he was dreaming…

…

“Qing Wuque! I’m your teacher! I won’t harm you. I’m doing this for your own good!”

Teacher Li Qian frowned as she looked at Shen Fei and said, “Yes, I’ve said these words before, but you have to know that different starting points lead to different achievements.”

“If you choose this Scarlet Flame Lion, you will far surpass all of your peers in the academy. Do you understand? This is the best choice for you!”

“This thing in your arms, if you throw it on the street, no one will even look at it. It’s a Tier-1 low-level thing. Who would even look at it?”

After saying that, she turned her head away in disdain.

Qing Wuque was a little excited. “Teacher! You said that as humans, familiars are our best companions. We can’t look down on them just because they’re weak.”

“So you’re saying that teacher is wrong?” Li Qian raised her voice.

Qing Wuque was her best student. She couldn’t just watch her go down the wrong path… She was a little anxious, so she was a little agitated as well…

If Qing Wuque really chose this Tier-1 low-level cat as her familiar today, wouldn’t that be a slap to Li Qian’s face?

As her proud student, she actually had such foresight. Wasn’t she going to be ridiculed by the entire Imperial Beast Academy?

At that moment, Shen Fei could even hear Qing Wuque’s thumping heartbeat clearly!

Clearly, as the teacher’s proudest student, this was the first time she had argued with her teacher like this.

She was also a little afraid and nervous.

Shen Fei was also very touched. After all, all of this was because of him…

Seeing that Teacher Li Qian was about to say something, Qing Wuque directly interrupted, “Teacher, don’t say anymore. I’ll choose it! Any familiar has immeasurable potential. I believe in it!”

“It will definitely become a more powerful familiar than the Scarlet Flame Lion!”

Qing Wuque even shouted out the last sentence. She had no confidence in arguing with her teacher, so fear and nervousness took over her brain. Her body trembled a little, and she could only use her voice to comfort herself.

Li Qian looked at her proud student who was stubborn and unrepentant, and was a little disappointed. She swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth. She looked at Qing Wuque and shook her head, her eyes filled with pity.

“You disappoint me too much, Qing Wuque. Since you don’t cherish it, then I’ll give this Scarlet Flame Lion to someone else!” With that said, she left the place.

After seeing her teacher leave, Qing Wuque took a deep breath and slowly exhaled, calming down her excited mood.

It was also the first time Xiao Qian, who was standing next to her, saw her teacher lose her temper like this. She was scared silly.

“Meow.”

Qing Wuque looked at Shen Fei in her arms. She sniffed and said, “It’s all because of you, little guy. You made me quarrel with my teacher! You must do your best for me in the future!” Then, she rubbed the tip of her nose on Shen Fei’s head.

[Ding! Favorability +30!]

Shen Fei had kept pets in his previous life, so he knew how to make his master like him more.

He stretched out his small paws and slowly grabbed Qing Wuque’s clothes. He stretched out his pink little tongue and gently licked her palm.

“Meow.” Shen Fei responded to her.

“You’re really smart. It seems that I made the right choice…”

[Ding! Favorability +10!]

[Ding! Favorability +5!]
