Chapter 325: Let Me? Do I Need You to Let Me?

After acknowledging the students' enthusiasm, the two Venerables took their seats on the high platform.

Besides the two peerless beauties standing behind them, only the two principals accompanied them below; everyone else could only look up, not daring even to approach.

"Ah Ying, it's been a few years, and your bearing is just as it was!"

"Long Zhan, don't get too familiar with me; we just video-called a while ago."

"How can that be the same? That was a national meeting!"

"To me, it's all the same; in the end, it's just that stinky face!"

"You old hag, you're always like this; can we even talk properly?"

"What did you call me?"

Zhuge Ying's face darkened, and her psychic power began to stir!

"Uh... slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue. Don't be angry; don't let the juniors laugh at us!"

"Hmph!"

Zhuge Chaoyue and Long Shaoyun were used to it; these two always bickered whenever they met, so they were accustomed to it!

Guan Bei and Feng Chengxiang stared at their noses, "850" stared at their hearts, and their hearts stared at the second son; we heard nothing and saw nothing.

It was said that in their youth, these two had a soul-stirring emotional entanglement, but ultimately chose to sever this ill-fated bond for the sake of their respective families, turning lovers into enemies from then on.

Well, calling them enemies was a bit of an exaggeration, but they were certainly competitors!

But could we say such things to outsiders? Of course not!

"I heard the Pokémon provided as the prize for this competition is yours; is it truly a pseudo-legendary?"

Long Zhan chuckled, "The nation couldn't spare one for a moment, so I had to pitch in; I couldn't let the children down!"

Zhuge Ying sneered, "I think you prepared it specifically for Yun girl; otherwise, would you offer a pseudo-legendary? In the end, it all falls into your own family!"

"Ah Ying, don't say that about me; am I not allowed a little selfishness? Yun girl's strength is good, but anything can happen; perhaps she might lose after all!"

"You actually spoke the truth; the accident is my Chaoyue. Once she snatches your pseudo-legendary away, let's see if your heart aches!"

"Girl Chaoyue is like my granddaughter; why would my heart ache? She specializes in Psychic-type just like you, and having a pseudo-legendary Dragon-type can fill her gaps! Anyway, whether first place goes to your family or mine, isn't it all the same?"

"Hmph, I see you know your place!"

Zhuge Ying's attitude improved slightly then.

Amidst enthusiastic cheers, the two competitors walked into the arena.

The gazes of the two Venerables converged on Bai Jing.

"Is he the child who made such a huge contribution to the nation?"

"Yes, it is him!"

Long Shaoyun felt a itch in her heart and asked, "Grandpa, what contribution did he make to the nation? Is that why Big Brother wants to protect him?"

Feng Chengxiang was startled; did this kid have such a contribution? He quickly perked up his ears!

"Girl Yun, this is a state secret and cannot be told to you; you only need to know he is a selfless and good child!"

"Him? Selfless? Go fool a ghost!"

Long Shaoyun simply did not believe it; he was nothing but a shameless rogue!

"Hmm? How are you speaking?"

Long Shaoyun stuck out her little fragrant tongue and coquettishly said, "Grandpa, I'm really curious; just tell me!"

"So you still don't know!"

Zhuge Chaoyue said proudly, "I know, but I won't tell you!"

"Dead poker-face, I didn't ask you!"

"Dead stick-in-the-mud, didn't you hear it's a state secret? Is it something you can know?"

"I..."

"Grandpa, can you bear to watch your granddaughter being bullied like this?"

The two old people exchanged a glance and smiled gently!

"You two, you've fought over everything since childhood; can't you be a pair of good sisters?"

"With her?"

"Impossible!"

The two women haughtily turned their heads away.

The two old people shook their heads and laughed; these two girls were naturally incompatible.

"Ah Ying, I heard girl Chaoyue is very close to this child?"

Zhuge Ying glanced at her granddaughter, saw her turn her head away shyly, and couldn't help but smile like a chrysanthemum.

"As for the children's matters, as long as they like it, I won't ask too much!"

"Then I truly congratulate you; compared to his huge contribution, Marshal Lu seems insignificant!"

Long Shaoyun went crazy; so what exactly did he do? Why won't anyone tell me?

Mainly because the dead poker-face knows and I don't; so annoying!

Zhuge Chaoyue was instead worried; that guy absolutely refuses to marry into the family; what should be done?

"Junior Bai Jing, please give me your guidance!"

"No problem, I will certainly give you good guidance!"

"Please have both sides send out their Pokémon!"

Bai Jing chose Aegislash.

Aegislash

(2)(7)(9)(9)(5)(5)(6)(3)(7)

During this period, Aegislash's strength had made small progress, and it had finally comprehended the Laws...

Lu Shuai sent out Beedrill.

Beedrill

Bai Jing frowned. Sending such a weak Pokémon to battle me—what's the point?

He heard Lu Shuai say, "It is my first Pokémon. It accompanied me through a difficult period. It is my most important partner."

"And then? What are you trying to say? I don't think this Beedrill is very powerful!"

"Your judgment is good. Its strength is indeed a bit weak. There's nothing to be done; it's limited by its talent."

"Then why send it out to fight?"

"Because it is my most important partner. I also want it to contribute and participate."

"I understand you want to consider its feelings, but aren't you afraid of losing the match?"

Poison is completely immune to Steel, and Bug deals only half damage to Ghost. What's the difference between this fight and giving it away for free?

"It doesn't matter. It's not as weak as you imagine! Besides, just consider it a senior letting a junior have his way!"

Bai Jing's face darkened. "Then I truly thank you!"
