"You only watch the promotional video, but don't look at the school rankings or the Pokémon resources?!"

"These high-ranking school leaders are all bloated and fat! All they come up with are weird and terrible ideas..."

"Cough cough!"

Bai Hao quickly coughed lightly, interrupting Hiratsuka Shizuka.

"The principals and secretaries of public schools are appointed by the Dragon Kingdom and the Alliance,"

"They're just too eager to achieve anything and want to get results."

Hiratsuka Shizuka was stunned and paused instantly.

The look in his eyes as he looked at Bai Hao was filled with disbelief.

I'm criticizing the boss in front of you, and you're trying to smooth things over?!

You're so eager to improve, kid?!

Yukino glanced at Bai Hao but didn't say anything more.

Yui sensed something was off and quickly raised her right hand.

"Um... I've also followed [Shuchiin] and [Advanced Nurturing]!"

She took out her phone, opened Douyin (TikTok), and found the official account of [Xiuzhiyuan].

"Almost every student at Shuchiin University owns one of the starter Pokémon, and the overall quality of the video is very high."

Bai Hao looked through the playlist.

The videos posted yesterday mostly received over 400,000 likes.

Some of the more popular videos even have seven or eight hundred thousand likes.

He then went back out and glanced at the official title of Zongwugao.

After this morning's buzz, Bai Hao Liuwei's video has already reached over 200 million likes!

The other videos received fewer than 100,000 likes.

The gap is very obvious.

I skimmed through the video of Bai Hao returning to Xiuzhiyuan.

The students of Shuchiin Academy were mostly nobles.

They all have the means to conduct tests at home, which can roughly determine the talent of a Pokémon.

For these large families, as long as a Pokémon's aptitude reaches the level of a near-Elite Four member, it is worthwhile to invest in its training.

A few hundred million or tens of millions of evolution stones are nothing!

Large families are not short of money and resources.

Their only concern was that the elves were leveling up too quickly by consuming resources.

It defected before it even had a chance to build a bond with its trainer.

Therefore, the spirit education at Shuchiin Academy mainly focuses on cultivating intimacy.

Once the intimacy level reaches a certain threshold, the student's family will invest [Evolution Stones] to directly upgrade the character!

Hiratsuka Shizuka then came to her senses and realized that Bai Hao had just been joking.

She glared at Bai Hao, then, seeing the video on her phone, explained...

"The Pokémon of the students at Shuchiin Academy have all eaten an Evolution Stone."

"Some popular players ate two."

“A very small number of top trainers have already fed them three [Evolution Stones].

"For example, the Slug with [Mega Drain], the Charizard with [Splitter], and the Mudkip with [Rock Slide]..."

"They are all around level 25, and their strength has reached the early stage of the [ordinary level]."

"Students from other schools are basically leveling up through normal training, and are currently in the mid-novice stage."

"Compared to other schools, Shuchiin University is far behind."

"With him around, other schools naturally don't get much attention."

Bai Hao nodded and clicked on the highly-rated videos one by one.

"Everyone remained quite calm and didn't bring out their pseudo-legendary Pokémon."

Hiratsuka Shizuka rolled her eyes at Bai Hao and said reproachfully,

"You think high-potential pseudo-legendary Pokémon are as common as cabbages?!"

"These are treasures that are hard to come by!"

"Only top-tier families and long-established powerful families prepare top-quality quasi-god cubs when their direct descendants are born."

"Let children grow up together with elves."

"And there are no more than ten families of this caliber in the entire country of Japan!"

"Among these families, there are even fewer families where the children are currently in their final year of high school!"

"Those top-tier families wait until their direct descendants are six or seven years old and begin to show their talents before preparing for top-quality quasi-gods."

"If your talent is average, then switch to a high-quality pseudo-god."

Even top-tier families wouldn't just hand out top-tier quasi-gods like cabbages!

"Even second-rate families start training elves when their children are six or seven years old."

"They are mostly high-quality pseudo-gods or the top three starter Pokémon with a 277 aptitude."

"The smaller families below them will not choose quasi-gods."

“Cultivating near-gods from a young age is high-risk and high-investment; if things go wrong, it could result in losses of hundreds of millions!”

"They prefer to get a better starter Pokémon."

"Let's save the resources for the quasi-gods and wait until our own children grow up."

At this point, Hiratsuka Shizuka looked at Yukino and Eru with a hint of curiosity in her eyes.

"Would you mind revealing your companion spirits?"

Bai Hao was also curious upon hearing this.

Yukino glanced at Bai Hao and said in a clear voice,

“Mine is Laplace.”

Airu blinked.

"Mine is Ibrahimovic."

Bai Hao's eyes lit up, and he asked...

"Eru's Eevee hasn't evolved yet, has it?"

"Ah."

"Don't rush to evolve, I have an idea."

Hiratsuka Shizuka immediately became curious.

"idea?"

"What do you mean..."

"never mind."

She stopped talking again, rolled her eyes at Bai Hao,

"I feel like you won't tell me even if I ask."

Bai Hao smiled without saying a word.

Hiratsuka Shizuka glanced at the time.

"We've been here for so long, it's almost time to hand in our work."

After saying that, she got up from the tatami mat and stretched.

Her ample figure, hidden beneath the teacher's uniform, made the buttons clench tightly.

"I go first."

Hiratsuka Shizuka waved, put on her indoor shoes, and quickly left the classroom.

Just as Bai Hao and the others got up from the tatami mats, Hiratsuka Shizuka quickly walked out of the classroom and closed the door.

Several people sat down again.

Chitanda lay on the table, staring intently at Bai Hao with her bright eyes, and whispered,

"Haojun, I'm very curious!"

Bai Hao reached out and gently ruffled Aru's soft black hair, speaking softly.

"I'm not sure either, so I'll keep you in suspense for now."
