Number One Dungeon Supplier

"Another fight with the Rats. Don't you have enough on your plate already?" Grandma Yuan saw Jin waiting for her at the side while he was tapping on his phone.

"Now that I am officially the Panda Lord, it does not hurt to have some competition. Or else, I would not be able to gain territory." Jin shrugged his shoulders. "Besides, if they attack me, they are probably going to assault the store since I can hardly move myself away from it. And even if they do it outside of the store, I still have my minions to come to me at my behest. Not much of an issue."

"If I have to say it again, it was quite out of the blue to pull that trick out. Most of the delegation are still in panic mode after you guys left. Also, that red flag you pulled is just erm… quite expected." Claire said to Jin, implying that his big mouth was about to ruin the entire situation considering how things were proceeding rather smoothly.

"Hahah yeah. I did some research with the aid of the System when the delegation came in. A bit of digging into each and every individual personal background that was available on the net. And seeing how a few of them were in the Royal Zodiac clans, I would be more surprised if they did not show their haughty behaviour against me." Jin said as this was one of the ways to bait them to come after him especially now that he knows about the Heavenly Duels, it would be so much easier to win against them.

Also, if anything goes badly, he still got the Royal Zodiac Dragon Clan to back him up since he was still in the protection phase.

"And according to their attitude, it seems like they do not know who I am yet, so a sneak attack would be the best way to win things right now," Jin concluded.

"Just hope that you do not bite more than you could chew." Grandma Yuan shook her head. "I might not be there to aid you if the pinch gets real."

"Heh. Thank you for your concern. Grandma Yuan. But I think with the combined might of all my army, I believed I should be able to fight against a Clan Head." Jin said and the System suddenly chipped in its opinion.

"Based on the fight against Original Bellator Kraft, the System had sufficient analytical evidence that User should indeed be able to hold against a Clan Head. Even if he does not, he still has his bellators with him."

"I guess you learnt your lesson too eh?" Grandma Yuan was speaking to the System directly and shockingly, the System acknowledged Grandma Yuan's remarks.

"Indeed. With the previous encounter as a base analysis, the System would not dare to underestimate its opponent."

"Good. Because this is seriously your last shot too since Jin is one and only to possess the original bloodline of the Panda Clan." Grandma Yuan nodded her head.

"Anyways, enough of me. How is the JODE treating you? Are you able to open for the April intake? Or well, I assumed that's the time for intake since most high schools and even military recruitment start roughly that month." Jin queried and Grandma Yuan sighed.

"Yes. Yes. They suddenly treated me as if I were some empress rather than some fool who just wanted the principal's seat. If I had known that money can work wonders, I would have already invested something into the JODE." Grandma Yuan said.

"Your wealth is not that almighty." Claire was quick to tell her.

"But didn't you all say that she spent loads and loads of money on the maintenance of those exotic animals? And even donated a heck lot to the cultivation zoo? Is it because of a conflict of interest that you are unable to put money into JODE?" Jin asked which caused Claire to start giggling.

"It's not anything so unreal. My father was the one that is the millionaire. And one of the assets he invested heavily in was the Cultivation Zoo as well as that Animal Storage company you encountered. So, it was natural for me to invest his inheritance into the Zoo, allowing me to hold onto the Chairman's post." Grandma Yuan replied. "So, there are some people I knew that gave me a major discount into holding those animals for you. I assumed Claire had put in a lot of effort into bluffing you that I spent a ton of money into it."

"Yeap… She did." Jin stared at Claire and this time around she burst out laughing now that the cat is out of the bag.

"But that major discount came with a condition and it is also why it would be nice to talk to you about it too." Grandma Yuan's expression turned a little cheeky, a face that Jin rarely sees. "I told them that the new Zoo Boss has connections to people who had the unique ability to 'freeze time' and they were extremely interested to see you with regards to that."

"Oh…OHHHH." Jin seemed to vaguely understand why they would want a 'static time' user to keep or improve their animal storage capabilities. "They need us to catch some animals for them?"

"Something like that. Even though their storage had already been enhanced with inscriptions and magic, there were some animals that were temperature specific or too stressed. Most High Grade Magicians could also freeze time but they had a time limit because it was too much of a strain on their mana. On the other hand, you have a mage that does not have such restraints. Do five jobs for them and they would seal the deal, else I told them to hand the remaining bill to the Zoo Boss." Grandma Yuan said and Claire instantly produced the receipt invoice for Jin to see.

Without a doubt, he could have fainted on the spot seeing the number of numbers on the invoice and thus, he commanded the System to get Peppers to get in touch with Grandma Yuan.
