Agreement

"Principal Gustaf!"

Instructor Lee immediately bowed his head in respect to the old man. Cyan followed suit.

"It's an honor for this young man to meet Principal Gustaf," Cyan said in a polite tone. After all, the old man in front of him is one of the strongest men in Ashbury City.

It is said that Principal Gustaf is a B-level talent that can be comparable to A-level talent. There's nothing wrong with saying it.

After all, Principal Gustaf's talent is B-level talent Golden Metal Endowment, a mutated talent that came from the C-level type endowment-type talent series, Metal Endowment.

Principal Gustaf's talent is different from typical endowment-type talent. His talent is an ability that allows granting beasts to have the attributes of metal with gold texture. With this talent, their defense and attack power can increase, especially for earth-type beasts.

It is said that all of Principal Gustaf's beasts are Earth-type which has also another attribute. So connected to the principal's talent, those beast has three attributes! Such a rare configuration! Even among Northern Sky Country, it is a rare occurrence.

The Principal smiled at Cyan's attitude. It seems that this young man is not only intelligent and talented but also respectful and humble.

Such character is rare among this generation. It is worth nurturing!

"No need to be a polite young man. It is a fortune that such talent is born in our city and even in our institute." Principal Gustaf chuckled lightly.

Cyan and Instructor Lee get up from their posture and are now facing the old man.

"I heard from Instructor Lee, that you need dragon-type resources. I shall ask first what you might need this first." The old principal continued.

"Yes. If not too much, sir. I need dragon-type resources to provide for my first beast and its hatching." Cyan replied carefully.

The principal just smiled lightly and replied. "I see. Then follow me, young man." He motioned for Cyan.

Noticing this, Instructor Lee on the side did not insist. After all, the principal specifically asked for Cyan.

And at his rank, he's not even qualified to see the resources at the diamond tier of the school property.

Cyan also noticed all of this but he didn't interrupt. Instead, he just follows the stride of the principal. They are strolling in a hallway and they enter a room.

The room was extensive. There are bookshelves on the corner. There are even portraits of the past principal of Ashbury Academy. In the center was a white jade table with a plaque that has the carved name, Principal Gustaf West.

"Originally, I thought the dragon-type resource I have in hand is useless and I would just have to exchange for other resources." The principal started to speak as he headed to his table.

"But since you're here, might as well give it to you."

The principal seems to be taking out something from the cabinet of his table.

The principal took out a vial that has a mysterious crimson blood. After that, he took out another item. It seems like a gleaming gray horn with blue rays flashing from time to time.

Cyan instantly operates the Identification.

[• Wind Storm Dragon's Blood

Affinity: Wind, Lightning

Tier: Diamond

Description: A drop of blood from the Wind Storm Dragon. As long as a beast has a blood of a dragon it can simulate the bloodline of a Wind Storm Dragon. Supplementing it with spiritual liquid when using, there is a possibility to comprehend one of its skills.]

[• Wind Storm Dragon's Horn

Affinity: Wind, Lightning

Tier: Diamond

Description. A horn that falls off from the Wind Storm Dragon. It can strengthen the power, agility, physique, and mind of a dragon-type beast. When used to the extreme, you can acquire its lightning attribute skills.]

"This..." Cyan can't help but widen his eyes when he saw the preciousness of the things that the principal took out.

Principal Gustaf notices this. It seems that this young man has good eyes! Good! He can't help but praise.

"This is just one of the harvests I got from my last practice in Gale Island. I almost lost my life back then." Said the principal with dark lines on his face.

After all, when he got these resources together with other resources he have in hand, he didn't expect it. Gale Island is an island located in the western part of Northern Sky Country.

He went out to practice and stabilize his strength back then when he was just promoted at Beginner Amethyst Rank.

But who knows when he just accidentally poke into prismatic lightning ore that was coveted by an Amethyst Rank Wind Storm Dragon. As a result, Principal Gustaf was forced into a fight because of it. Just even thinking about it now almost made his stomach hurt.

Shaking his head out of nonsensical monologues, Principal Gustaf looks at Cyan and spoke.

"I know you already understand the preciousness of these resources. So of course I wouldn't give this to you without having you do anything. You can also take this as compensation so you wouldn't accept these resources with such a heavy heart." The principal said as he look earnestly at Cyan.

Hearing this, Cyan nodded to show that he understood. There's no free thing in this cruel world where strength is respected.

Although these two dragon-type resources are only at the diamond tier, the effects they have can be said to be comparable to amethyst-tier resources.

Especially if it's used on beasts that have compatible attributes and aspects. It just happens that the Wind Slaying Spirit Butterfly he was about to contract is compatible with this.

Wind attributes and dragon-type resources can provide energy to it. Not to mention the addition of lightning-attribute, as long as there is wind, it can be combined with lightning.

So if he obtains this for free, he will feel bad even if he wants it. Cyan looks solemnly at Principal Gustaf to hear what he was about to say.

Seeing the firm gaze of Cyan, the principal nodded inside himself and spoke.

"I just want you to pass the entrance examinations in any one of the top-notch institutions in the country."

"Not just pass it, but make it to the top ten lists."

Hearing this, Cyan was surprised.

He was not a stranger to the top-notch institutions in Northern Sky Country.

Currently, there are five top-notch institutions in the country. Airborne University, Horizon University, Taproot University, Edgewater University, and Perpetual University.

Each University is known for its strength and reputation. It is said that these universities have Lord-Rank beast-master residing. Most platinum-rank beast masters and some lord-rank beast tamers in the country came from these universities.

Every year during summer, a hundred thousand admissions submit enrollment forms to these institutions hoping that they will be accepted.

But it's hard for such a university to have a low set bar. If they do have, then they can't be called a top-notch university.

Only thousands can enter. The numbers will not even exceed ten thousand. And most of these students have a possibility of stepping foot into Amethyst Rank. Some may even reach platinum or lord rank. Just with this, it can be seen that it's hard to enter these top-notch institutes.

Of course for Cyan, after he graduated high school, he will naturally enroll in these top-notch universities. Even now that he has a system. He didn't believe he can't reach the qualifications standards within a month. Not to mention his A-level talent which is now mutated into SSS-level talent is already one in a million.

In this period before the entrance exams for college, Cyan was confident enough to meet the standard strength.

In fact, Principal Gustaf knows that it is hard to enroll in these top-notch universities.

Back then, when Principal Gustaf enrolled at one of the top-notch universities, Taproot University, he barely pass the entrance examination. And who would have believed he was only good enough to be ranked at the thousand seats? He who's a powerhouse in a second-class city can already be ranked below at the top-notch university back then.

So Principal Gustaf knows what he requests might be overboard. But he can't help it, after all, it was a chance to invest in a future powerhouse in their city. Perhaps, Cyan can bring him surprises.

Aside from that, Principal Gustaf wants Cyan to enroll at Taproot University because it is his alma mater. But he knows that is too much.

At least if he will reach an agreement regarding this with Cyan, he should let him pick the university he would enroll in for his preference.

There's not much big difference between these top-notch universities, to begin with.

"Yes, principal. I will do it." Says Cyan with a heavy breath.

Seeing this, Principal Gustaf smiled.

"Great. Here are these dragon-type resources." The old principal replied as he throw the Wind Storm Dragon's blood and horn to Cyan.

"If you need more resources, the school is willing to provide it for you." He added.

Cyan looks at the dragon-type resources he had in hand and lifts his gaze at Principal Gustaf.

"I might need to borrow the academy's incubation room and have one bottle of spiritual liquid."

The Principal nodded and stood up as he walks out through the door.

"Let's go." The old man spoke.

Cyan followed as they exit the room and walk at the hallway again.
