Chapter 102: Chapter 43: Cat-Ear Girl (Seeking Investment, Seeking Followers)

"Nan, where are we sitting?"
As Lin Su entered the venue for the Breeding Achievement Competition, he became somewhat apprehensive.
It felt like there were so many big shots...
A famous researcher who had just walked past them even contributed to the compilation of Lin Su's high school textbooks, and other renowned figures from various fields were mingling in the space, many of whom Lin Su had seen on television.
Clearly, he had underestimated the influence of the Breeding Achievement Competition.
"Over there, do you see the sign for Mountain City University? That whole area is ours, sit wherever you like," Qin Nan said from beside Lin Su, wearing a pair of large sunglasses that covered half of her face and a retro high-definition filming lens around her neck.
She really wore them...
"Oh, I see it," Lin Su nodded and followed Qin Nan to sit in the seats allocated for Mountain City University. He glanced at Qin Nan next to him, "Nan, why are you wearing sunglasses today?"
"Oh, I don't want to be recognized by annoying old ladies," Qin Nan explained casually.
"Who are you calling an annoying old lady?!" A cold voice came from behind, belonging to a woman with intelligent shoulder-length straight hair. However, her knowledgeability implied by her hairstyle was completely overshadowed by her exquisitely cold and unmelting iceberg-like face.
"Bad luck," Qin Nan muttered under her breath. She took off her sunglasses and glared at the newcomer, "What about it, Shi Yuhua?"
Shi Yuhua stood in the aisle, watching Qin Nan quietly, "It's useless to say more, you've never beaten me from childhood to now, and you won't this time either."
"That's not necessarily true, maybe... this time I'll surprise you?" Qin Nan snorted coldly, her hand subconsciously touching the high-definition filming lens on her chest.
She wanted to capture at least a hundred shocked expressions of that annoying old lady!
Shi Yuhua shook her head, said nothing more, and turned to walk toward the seating area for Jinghua University.
"Nan, when do we go on stage?" Lin Su asked.
This was the first time he had seen the researcher named Shi Yuhua, and he understood why Nan and her didn't get along.
These two have completely clashing personalities...
"Third," Qin Nan gestured with her hand, "The order of presentation for the Breeding Achievement Competition is based on the current university rankings."
"Got it," Lin Su nodded.
According to current university rankings, Mountain City University was in third place.
Before them were Jinghua University in first place and Zhongtian University in second.
"Oh, by the way, little Lin, open your social media account and take a look."
"Hm?" Lin Su opened his communicator and looked at it, his expression turning strange.
Beneath the profile picture of his social media account, there was a new "v", and next to it, a small tag read: Official Researcher at Mountain City University's Evolution Research Institute.
"Nan, did you get me verified?"
"Yeah," Qin Nan chuckled, "This way, after you go on stage, other people will be able to easily find your social media account, follow you accurately, and avoid imitation accounts, don't you think that's considerate?"
Lin Su: "..."
So is he going to gain fifty million followers now?
...
In District 11, Tianzhan Battle Arena.
Zhong Tianzhan had turned on the projection screen early, with Zhong Hao and Zhao Tianchen sitting beside him.
"Uncle Zhong, Hao, my dad's research project should be the second presentation," Zhao Tianchen said with a smile, "Once the project's report is finished, the review will be carried out simultaneously. As soon as it's approved, I'll immediately evolve my Fire Cloud Dog. The evolution resources and technique have all been prepared."
"I'm looking forward to it, too," Zhong Tianzhan laughed, "I haven't seen Brother Zhao for several years. I didn't expect him to be able to stand on such a big stage now. I'm still just muddling along day by day."
"Uncle, running a Battle Arena is nonetheless impressive," Zhao Tianchen smiled, "Tianzhan Battle Arena is now one of the top Battle Arenas in District 11, your achievements are no less than my father's."
"At least you know how to flatter, unlike Zhong Hao," Zhong Tianzhan glanced at his son with an iron-not-becoming-steel look, "My boy is behind you in every aspect."
Zhong Hao, who had been silent all along, turned slightly dark-faced, "At least Tianchen and I have one thing in common."
"Oh? What's that?"
"We both lost to Lin Su."
Zhong Tianzhan: "..."
Zhao Tianchen: "..."
Zhao Tianchen cleared his throat. He was still bothered by his only defeat, "No matter, during the entrance assessment, I will fight Lin Su again to prove myself. By that time, my beast will have evolved into a Commander species, and his Xue Henqing will definitely not be a match for mine."
"That's the spirit," Zhong Tianzhan nodded approvingly and turned to look at his son, slapping him hard on the back of the head, "There's one month left until the entrance assessment. In this month, you're also going to evolve your Powerful Rock Bear!"
"Oh..."
...
Inside a sealed training room, a figure stood quietly.
It was a girl with her eyes tightly closed, her delicate face covered with ice-blue light patterns, and a clear snowflake mark on her forehead. Her snow-white long hair was quietly draped behind her, with a pair of cat ears perking up on the top of her head, the white cat ears subtly turning into ice-blue at the tips.
Behind her, a slender and supple cat tail moved lightly and gracefully.
At one moment, the girl opened her ice-blue eyes, and a surge of tremendous energy burst forth from inside her, creating energy storms that lifted her hair.
