Looking at Elder Xuan San's appearance, Si Er couldn't help but take a step back.

"I think it would be better to put these in the library for now. If the elders want something, they can find it themselves."

"Sure, sure." Elder Xuan San handed over two tokens. "With these, you can make copies of all the books in the library."

"You can come out whenever you're done making the rubbings; there's no need to rush."

"However, the library is a place for reading and studying. You two young lovers can't do anything inappropriate for children inside."

Si Er and Yu Beixuan: "..."

Elder Xuan San glanced at Yu Bei Xuan again: "By the way, is that little black cat or little black tiger? Didn't you always carry it around before? Why aren't you carrying it today?"

Elder Xuan San still remembered the little black kitten's sweet, childlike voice as it tapped on the window, and the thought of it made him want to move it. If Yu Beixuan were still holding it, he could take the opportunity to move.

Yu Beixuan asked, puzzled, "Why is the elder asking this?"

"It's nothing, it's nothing. If there's nothing else, you can go ahead and do your work. Just come back and collect your diploma when it's time to leave."

Elder Xuan San was too embarrassed to say that he wanted to move the students' soul pets, so he could only wave them away.

After entering the library, the two found it rather deserted today. Apart from the elders and instructors on duty, there were only a few students on the first floor.

As they entered, one of the elders on duty greeted them.

"Isn't this Si Er and Yu Beixuan? It's been a long time! Where have you two been training all this time?"

Si Er: "It seems like we've been everywhere."

"Wow, not bad at all. You've traveled to so many places at such a young age." The elder said with some envy, "I also want to travel all over the continent, but unfortunately my family is too slow to allow it."

Si Er asked, puzzled, "What do you mean by 'slowly'?"

The elder shifted his body and pulled out a tortoise as tall as a chair from under his bottom.

"This is my only mount. It's called Slowpoke. It does everything slowly and is extremely lazy."

"I wanted to go to Dongyao City to play, so I asked it to take me there, but it didn't want to move after we just stepped out of the academy gate."

Si Er asked in confusion, "Didn't the elder go out to gain experience while he was in school?"

It's probably impossible to expect this tortoise to take the elder out for training.

The elder sighed, "Alas, it's a long story. I used to carry it around."

"But ever since I graduated and became a college tutor, I've felt that I should have some status. I can't carry my mount anymore; it should carry me instead. But this old rascal just won't listen!"

Si Er: "..."

Could this elder and Lu Taiping be related? Why do they both like carrying tortoises around?

The elder exclaimed: "Huh? Is there anyone else like me who's been forced to be a mount? We're both in the same boat, why bother with formalities? I need to find a chance to see if he's suitable to inherit my mantle."

"By the way, what books are you two looking for? If you tell me, I might be able to bring them to you."

“I have been on duty here for many years and I know the books here very well.”

Si Er held up the token in his hand: "But we're here to make copies of all the books, and we also want to donate some of them."

"Is that so? Then you should definitely come with me. Making rubbings one by one is too slow. I have a faster way."
