"Understood," the blond man said solemnly.
Suddenly, his phone vibrated.
The blond man picked it up and glanced at it, showing a clear expression of surprise.
"What’s wrong?" Gilbert asked, noticing his unusual expression.
"It’s nothing important," the blond man replied, putting down the phone.
Gilbert didn’t ask further and continued the previous topic: "If there are students whom you think have performed well in the competition, make a list for me. I’ll see who is best suited to join the Guardian Class."
The blond man did not respond immediately and instead looked at him with a slightly reproachful gaze.
"What kind of look is that?" Gilbert frowned.
The blond man quickly restrained his gaze but couldn’t help saying, "Dean, recruiting new students is still very important. Sometimes your standards for recruiting new students are too rigid. Occasionally, students with high talent can completely compensate for everything."
Gilbert frowned again: "Why suddenly bring this up?"
Then, as if realizing something, he said, "Give me your phone."
The blond man’s expression stiffened.
Gilbert looked at him with authority.
After two seconds, the blond man seemed to make a certain decision, unlocked the phone, deliberately opened the relevant chat interface, and handed it over.
Gilbert took the phone and focused his eyes. The screen was full of phrases like "Dean Gilbert is just an old stick-in-the-mud."
He read it expressionlessly.
Suddenly, a newly refreshed message caught his eye:
"If only Dean Gilbert hadn’t been shortsighted back then, Qiao Sang, the 17-year-old B-level Beast Tamer, would be one of our students now!"
Below, there were all agreeing comments.
Gilbert’s pupils contracted slightly, and his hand holding the phone trembled slightly.
After a long while, he asked, his voice trembling slightly, "Has Qiao Sang become a B-level Beast Tamer?"
As the dean of the third top-tier interstellar academy, he couldn’t possibly remember every student who studied at his college, let alone someone who studied for only one semester as an intergalactic exchange student.
But Qiao Sang’s situation was too unique. He regretted rejecting her for her talent and invited her again, only for her to refuse.
Speaking of which, Qiao Sang was the first student to reject his personal invitation, making it hard to forget.
Talking about this, the blond man subconsciously showed a reproachful look and nodded, "Mm," he said, "The news was sent over by the team competing at Flame Sky Star, and it seems they learned this news from the people at the Imperial Beastmaster Academy."
