Chapter 122 Longjiang Cool Dude
“A hundred and twenty… thousand?” Su Ping read the digits in surprise. Such a rate was pretty good for hiring a mere seventh-rank battle pet warrior. Above this one, there were also famous specialists of the eighth-rank who had pretty colorful frames around their pictures. Of course, their prices were higher. The cheapest among them could be hired for 350,000 an hour.
Su Ping picked several random names to check. Each page showed him related information of said instructors, such as achievements, how many students had been taught in their careers, and how well these students performed afterward.
Putting all the seemingly glorious achievements aside, Su Ping didn’t find the results to be so impressive. He could definitely do the same.
Apart from specialists, there were 12 highlighted private tutors who were titled as ninth-rank battle pet warriors.
Su Ping scrolled down to check their pricing. A million, at least. And this wasn’t set by the hour. It was for each lesson. In other words, each of these guys could easily earn ten million just by paying their student ten visits.
Their records suggested that most of them had provided a few hundred lessons during their careers.
A few hundred million sounded nice, but it was actually not such a big sum for titled battle pet warriors, who were only one rank below legendary pet warriors. Someone as famous and influential as them could find cooperators from far and wide and enjoy constant stock revenue without doing any work. Teaching students in private was only an added bonus.
As far as Su Ping knew, there was one such titled battle pet warrior in Longjiang with a personal net worth of 50 billion.
As for the effectiveness of the lessons provided by titled battle pet warriors… It was pretty impressive. Most students gained a notable rise in their capabilities, such as obtaining a new skill, attaining a higher level of astral power control or new ways to command their pets.
Again, Su Ping read the reviews and found it just as possible to do the same himself.
Without waiting further, he immediately went ahead to get registered.
It seemed only battle pet warriors of the seventh rank or higher were allowed to become private tutors. To pass the review, Su Ping also needed the ID number of his teacher’s certificate. Thankfully, Dong Mingsong had already helped him get one.
He found the file provided by the Education Bureau, copied the required serial number, typed in a proper nickname for himself before choosing the rank to be registered at, which was the ninth rank.
With this done, he could start earning money as a titled ninth-rank battle pet warrior, even though he wasn’t recognized as one yet.
After pressing OK, he received a message that he had to provide the correct information according to his strength. Should he fail the future review, he would be permanently banned from becoming a private tutor again. He was allowed to accept students before the result of the review came out. However, if he was sued by a customer during this period, he would face a very severe punishment. In such a case, he would lose his privilege as a professor and be placed on the blacklist of the Education Bureau, which meant he would be barred from teaching in any school in Longjiang City. The penalty was usually enough to discourage most people from promising more than what they were capable of. Still, Su Ping didn’t think too much about it, since he never intended to be a dedicated teacher. Besides, he was confident that he could instruct people as effectively as the introduced battle pet warriors. His customers should only care about the final results, not his rank.
A list of recommended students showed up after the registration was submitted. For now, he would look for people who owned Undead-type pets because he was more familiar with this category.
At this moment, Xu Kuang was looking for a private teacher on the Internet, so he could improve as much as he could before the Elite League commenced.
The weekends were favored by common students who loved slacking off. To a hard worker like him, however, it was “garbage time” when he couldn’t get the lessons he wanted from the academy.
“Teachers who know about the Undead-type… Damn it, there’s so few of them!” Xu Kuang scowled when he reached the end of the page without finding many choices he could use.
He possessed several Undead-type Astral Pets. They all looked miserable on the outside, but they fought well. It wasn’t like he had an odd taste for these pets. It was just that, he liked being unique. It made him look cool. At least he thought so.
Furthermore, rarely-seen pets had another advantage over other battle pet warriors who knew little about them.
The biggest problem was that raising Undead-type pets took a lot of time and work. And it wasn’t helpful at all when all of his classmates and even his teacher always gave him weird looks.
Xu Kuang couldn’t care less about what others thought about him, but he was greatly bothered by the fact that it was extremely difficult to find relevant knowledge to train his pets. He had to constantly visit teachers in private to learn something useful, because they didn’t usually teach anything about the Undead during scheduled lessons.
Xu Kuang was noting down several specialists who claimed to be experienced in Undead-type pets, when the website suddenly showed him an alert.
