Chapter 358: Chapter 280 Dragon Gate Heavenly Ladder
North Pole City, Su Yuan and Luo Bingtong, wearing sunglasses, walked out of the airport.
The reason for wearing sunglasses, Su Yuan really had no other choice.
In the Great Flame Country, the popularity of a genius Star Card Master was even higher than that of a typical singer or idol.
From Xia Yue having millions of fans back in high school, one could get a glimpse of it. Even with the added charm of a genius beautiful girl + rich family girl, having millions of fans was enough to show the popularity of a genius Star Card Master.
And Su Yuan’s recent rise to fame could be said to have completely exploded. Various endorsements poured in, and the offered prices were not low, at least in the millions of Great Flame Coins…
However, a few million Great Flame Coins were nothing to Su Yuan now, and he had no intention of appearing in public…
At this moment, Su Yuan casually flagged down a taxi by the roadside.
“Driver, to the Star Card Master Association.”
“Alright~” the taxi driver readily responded.
The driver was a burly man with a stubble beard and spoke with a bit of a northern accent, embodying the natural hospitality and straightforwardness of northern folks.
“You two are both official Star Card Masters?” the driver asked while driving, chatting with Su Yuan who sat in the back seat.
Su Yuan responded with a smile, “Of course, ordinary people wouldn’t go to the Star Card Master Association, right?”
The driver laughed heartily, “Hahaha, that’s true, that’s true, but the little girl next to you doesn’t look like it at all. She looks about the same age as my daughter who just started high school!”
Su Yuan turned to look at Luo Bingtong sitting beside him.
A petite figure, a delicate small face, a flat chest…
Even though she was now at the Gold Level, she hadn’t changed a bit since the special admission exam back then.
Logically speaking, even a Star Beast with a Human Form Manifestation would have more or less changed with the improvement in realm and age.
But Luo Bingtong, not only didn’t grow taller, the parts that should have grown didn’t grow at all…
Seemingly aware of Su Yuan’s scrutinizing gaze, Luo Bingtong turned her head and noticed Su Yuan’s eyes lingering on her chest. She tilted her head slightly.
“What’s wrong?”
“Uh, nothing…” Su Yuan quickly withdrew his gaze after saying it was nothing.
Although he didn’t have any other bad thoughts, such a stare was somewhat impolite.
Luo Bingtong looked puzzled and lowered her head to glance at her own chest.
“Haha, young people are so nice,” the driver suddenly laughed.
Luo Bingtong, innocent like a blank sheet of paper, didn’t understand anything. However, the driver saw everything through the rearview mirror.
But the driver just laughed and didn’t say much. He instead changed the topic, “Young man, speaking of which, quite a few Star Card Masters have been coming to our North Pole City recently. Is there something going on?”
“There’s something, but it’s not in North Pole City. It’s to the north.”
North Pole City was at the northernmost point of the Great Flame. Further north was abroad.
“I see. No wonder many people have been heading to the major stations recently.”
The two chatted casually, and Su Yuan learned some current events about North Pole City from the driver.
Soon, they arrived at the Star Card Master Association in North Pole City.
The Star Card Master Association in Four Extremes City was even larger than the associations in the Three Cities.
Due to the many troubles in the border towns, the Star Card Masters on the border were more active than those in the internal regions.
Su Yuan took Luo Bingtong out of the car and entered the association, then casually approached a reception desk.
The receptionist was a pretty girl in her twenties with short hair, full of Essence Qi Spirit.
“Hello sir, what business do you need? Register a task or change your ID?” the receptionist asked.
Su Yuan replied, “I need information about the Fish Jumping Dragon Gate Conference.”
Information about the Dragon Gate Conference?
The receptionist took a closer look at Su Yuan. He looked quite young. Probably another genius Star Card Master from some college.
The Black Wind Domain was some distance from the Great Flame. Although many lower-level Star Card Masters from around the Black Wind Domain attended, in the Great Flame, those who went to the Dragon Gate Conference were mostly Gold Level.
Gold Level meant they were top students in all academies. But the person in front was wearing sunglasses, so the receptionist couldn’t see clearly, only perceiving his youth and handsome appearance.
As for Luo Bingtong standing behind him, the receptionist directly assumed she was Su Yuan’s middle school sister.
Many thoughts flashed through the receptionist’s mind, but her hands didn’t slow down. She took out a sealed document from the cabinet and handed it over.
“Here you go, 12 Cent Star Stones.” The receptionist smiled sweetly.
Su Yuan nodded, casually took out 12 Cent Star Stones from his ring, handed them over, accepted the document, and then took Luo Bingtong to the right-side lounge in the hall.
Watching Su Yuan and Luo Bingtong sit down in the lounge area, the receptionist’s mind started to race.
Any job involving contact with a Star Card Master came with high pay.
Working at the Star Card Master Association was an enviable job, requiring high professional qualifications and some background to get in.
The receptionist, named Ni Qingtan, was a distinguished graduate in business management from Capitol University, having graduated just six months ago. Her family conditions were decent, with even two houses in the Capitol.
“Little Lin has found a Silver Stage Star Card Master from Capitol Capital College as a boyfriend. This one should be a Gold Level Star Card Master, and so young…”
Looking at Su Yuan sitting in the lounge area, Ni Qingtan’s eyes sparkled, and she couldn’t help but feel a bit moved.
