Chapter 39: Working at the Sprite Care House

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The ones who were astounded weren’t just the students in the classroom.

Before it was even time for lessons, their form teacher, Old Chen, had hurried over upon hearing the news.

The ones who had hurried here along with her included Old Gu and a few other teachers too.

It was just that Coach Xiong wasn’t in school on Mondays, otherwise, they would see that humanoid Tyrant Bear too.

“It’s a Sprite Cultivator license. Looks like a real genius has emerged in An City First High this year.”

A smile appeared on Old Gu’s face.

Old Chen wasn’t as stern as she was in the past, either. She said, “It’s very impressive that you got the license. You need only to apply for the Sprite Cultivator specialization for college, and the chance of you enrolling in a prestigious school would be very high.”

The Sprite Trainer specialization wasn’t the only specialization in a Sprite University. It was just that Sprite Trainers and sprite battles were the specializations with the most students.

In comparison, Sprite Cultivators were more uncommon.

Su Hao was surprised for a moment before a slightly embarrassed expression took over his face.

“No, Ms. Chen, actually… What I want to apply for is the Sprite Trainer specialization.”

Old Chen was speechless.

Old Gu was also speechless.

Child, do you know that an entry-level Sprite Cultivator has a higher status than an entry-level Sprite Trainer!?

Not to mention that you got your license when you’re only in the first semester of your third year in high school. Clearly, you have a stronger gift in the path of a Sprite Cultivator!

They opened their mouths, intending to persuade him.

But when they carefully thought about it, they had only heard about Su Hao applying for a Sprite Cultivator license after he had already done so.

He was a student with views of his own, as well as his own plans for the future. Persuading him to develop in the direction of a Sprite Cultivator probably wasn’t very practical.

In the end, all they could say was, “It’s up to you, but don’t waste your talent in the Sprite Cultivator field.”

“I won’t.”

What Su Hao wanted to study in college was the sprite battle specialization. But this didn’t mean that he had to give up on the path of a Sprite Cultivator.

He could do both, couldn’t he!?

Back to the original topic, while he was indeed outstanding, his talent in both sprite cultivation and sprite training should advance hand in hand.

The reason why he had already gotten a Sprite Cultivator license, yet he was still a distance away from becoming an entry-level Sprite Trainer, was wholly because… Silkworm Baby was holding him back!

“Therefore, your training load will increase from today onward, understand?”

“G-gurgle?”

Silkworm Baby, which was sprawled next to the window, didn’t understand at all why it was suddenly being blamed out of the blue.

…

In the afternoon, after school ended, Su Hao followed the map navigator and went to the Sprite Care House.

Even though the Sprite Care House scale couldn’t be compared to the Sprite Free-Ranging Center in Yunhua City, it was still a three-story building. Bamboo and bonsai plants decorated the exterior, and there were even lively pictures of sprites printed on the wall.

After he made a call, he saw someone coming out of the Sprite Care House.

“Mr. Zhao.”

He was a mid-level Sprite Cultivator from An City and one of the examiners from the other day.

“You don’t need to address me like that. Just call me Big Brother Zhao.”

Zhao Liangcai gave him a smile.

From Su Hao’s firm rejection of the Yunhua Association’s attempt to rope him in, he had determined that Su Hao was different from the other flashy geniuses.

It made him admire him more.

“You must have received invitations from quite a lot of companies after you became an entry-level Sprite Cultivator.”

“There are indeed quite a lot. In the beginning, I even thought they were phone scams.”

His cell phone had already been switched to silent mode during those two days at the Yunhua Association’s library.

He hadn’t expected to receive several calls again the previous night after returning to An City. The people who had called professed to be representatives from certain companies.

There were local companies in An City, as well as companies from other cities.

The conditions that they had proposed were also extremely attractive.

A five-figure remuneration sum per month was nothing more than just the basic. The highest amount that a company offered had come up to an annual salary of 1.5 million yuan.

They had even offered various benefits to entice him.

Some had promised him property, and as long as he stayed with them for at least three years, the ownership of the house would wholly go to him.

Some had promised him sprites.

In the beginning, he had thought that these were all fake. But slowly, he realized that that wasn’t the case.

“I’ve only just gotten my entry-level license. Do these companies have to act in such an exaggerated way?”

“This isn’t exaggerated at all.” Zhao Liangcai said, “Sprite-related occupations have always been short of talents. Moreover, you got your license with a perfect grade. You’re also very young, so you still have a lot of room to grow. Of course those companies can’t wait, deathly afraid that they would be late to the party.

“All of these are real, including giving you property. Some companies indeed do that.

“But how much can a house come up to?” There was obvious indifference in Zhao Liangcai’s tone. “With your capabilities, you’ll be able to earn the amount of money to buy a house before long.

“Besides, even though the conditions that the companies proposed are attractive, there isn’t much room to grow.

“But of course, the remuneration amount they offer is stated right there after all. In comparison, the basic salary offered by the Sprite Care House is a lot lower. Have you thought it through carefully?”

Su Hao didn’t hesitate. “Of course.”

He was still a high school student—earning an income was for the sake of sprite cultivation and enrolling in a better Sprite University.

The conditions offered by the companies were certainly very attractive, but they practically bound him to them. It was impossible for Su Hao to take them up.

In comparison, working at the Sprite Care House was very relaxing, and the hours were flexible.

It wasn’t necessarily true that there was no chance for him to earn a lot here either.

Zhao Liangcai said, “The basic salary of entry-level Sprite Cultivators employed by the Sprite Care House is 5,000 yuan, but there are also commission rates. As long as it’s an order undertaken by you, you’ll be able to take half of the fee… However, because the Sprite Care House is a governmental organization, the prices are fixed.

“Other than that, you only need to clock half a day’s time for work every week. This is the Sprite Care House’s current shift schedule. You can choose your half-day duty from the remaining time slots.”

Su Hao took a look at the shift schedule.

Apart from him, there were only eight Sprite Cultivators employed by the Sprite Care House in An City. Out of which, three were mid-level Sprite Cultivators.

The other Sprite Cultivators in An City were either employed by companies or had set up a store by themselves.

But Su Hao wasn’t famous for one, and secondly, he didn’t have a place where he could do that. Thirdly, he didn’t have that much time either. Thus, his only choice was still to work at the Sprite Care House.

“I’ll take Saturday morning.”

“Sure. If there isn’t anything else, we can sign the contract.” Zhao Liangcai then said, “Oh right, although your shift is on Saturday, you can also come over any other time. Working more gets you more money after all.”

Zhao Liangcai wasn’t the Sprite Cultivator on duty in the afternoon. He was only here because of the contract.

He had another identity, too—the manager of the Sprite Care House!

Apart from Sprite Cultivators, there were also several normal staff members in the Sprite Care House. However, they also received civil servant privileges.

“The place where we, the Sprite Cultivators, stand on duty is at the east wing of the third floor. Apart from the reception room, there is also a physical examination room where you can do all-rounded physical check-ups on sprites… There’s also a small training ground there.

“The first and second floors are where we sell sprites. Do you want to take a walk there?”

Su Hao nodded.

After walking in, he saw various species of lively and animated sprites.

The Sprite Care House didn’t have a simulated ecological environment. Neither were there a lot of sprites. But because they weren’t separated from each other, the sprites played and frolicked about, giving off a feeling that it was very bustling and lively there.

“Silkworm Baby, Little Ground Wolf, Vine Snake, Grass Sheep…”

Sprites went past him one by one.

Some customers were in the midst of selecting sprites. However, it wasn’t contract season right now, so there were very few customers.

All of a sudden, Su Hao got a surprise.

He looked toward the corner. There was a somewhat withdrawn figure there. It looked out of place in comparison to the other sprites.

“Our Sprite Care House actually has this type of sprite too!?”
