Chapter 75

"Ah~ that hurts!"

"Dummy, don't hit the face! What if he goes and tattles?"

"Hit the belly — it hurts plenty but you can't see the injury!"

"Oh oh oh~ I get it now!"

"You… you're going too far!"

"Aaah oooh~~ stop hitting me, I was wrong, can't I just surrender? I'll give up the Zubat, alright?"

"Should've done that from the start. Had to take a beating first — what a masochist!"

Feng Feiyi successfully subdued the Zubat.

Student Yun Ying dry-heaved a few times, then glared daggers at the two of them.

"I'm keeping this score. This isn't over between us!"

After dropping those harsh words, he scurried off with his tail between his legs!

"Wasn't that unlucky bastard captured by Wu Quan? How did he get out again?"

"His old man stepped in!"

"The Flying Ace?"

"Right. Word is, once his old man showed up, he slapped him across the face twice on the spot, then apologized and paid compensation — only then did Wu Quan's fury cool and he stopped pursuing the matter."

Bai Jing shuddered at the thought. Thank goodness he'd bluffed his way through; otherwise it definitely wouldn't have ended so easily.

I don't have some ace daddy to clean up my messes — all I've got is a good-for-nothing old rogue!

"Forget him. What about you? Found a Pokémon you fancy yet?"

"Not yet. That group of people are nothing but bandits!"

"Well, I won't wait for you. I've decided on this Zubat — I need to hurry and power it up."

"Go on, go on!"

Over those twenty days, aside from subdueing Pokémon, the rest of the time was spent powering up. Every single person would race against the clock.

After all, one more point of strength meant one more point of advantage in the competition.

"I've got to hurry and catch a Pokémon too!"

Bai Jing decided to leave it to fate — wherever he wandered, that's where he'd go, exploring for treasures while searching for a Pokémon he liked.

So he began wandering aimlessly. Wherever the system's prompts led, that's where he'd head.

A Fire-type Slugma? Don't like it!

A Water-type Goldeen? Already have a Dragonite!

A Rock-type Geodude? Can't be bothered!

Along the way, he picked up a few more Evolution Stones.

"Ding! Treasure detected — five o'clock direction, seven hundred meters."

"That direction is the Steel-type area!"

Steel-type Pokémon were relatively rare, but Bai Jing could still occasionally spot a Magnemite or Klink.

"Ding! High-quality Pokémon detected fifty meters ahead."

"Ding! High-quality Pokémon detected fifty meters ahead."

"Oh? This place has quite a lot of treasure!"

Arriving at the spot, he ran into a familiar face again.

His 'rival in love' Jin Hongyu was commanding a Aron to attack a Pawniard.

The Pawniard was decent enough — just that someone had gotten there first.

Bai Jing simply sat down nearby. Since the system's treasure prompt was also at that spot, to avoid tipping anyone off, he'd just wait.

Jin Hongyu also noticed Bai Jing's arrival and couldn't help frowning. Had this guy come specifically to cause trouble?

So he turned and asked, "You have your eye on this Pawniard too?"

Bai Jing shrugged. "You're already battling. I wouldn't be that tasteless."

"Really? Then why aren't you leaving?"

"What? Is this your house? I can't stay here?"

"Hmph!"

In just a few moves he subdued the Pawniard. Jin Hongyu walked over, looking down with an arrogant attitude.

"Kid, you're nothing but low-class trash. In our eyes you're absolutely nothing. Don't think you're really some— Ouch!"

With someone like that, the Baijingna Society would show no courtesy — Bai Jing leapt up and threw a punch, making his face bloom like peach blossoms!

Hmph, giving you face, was I? Showing off your superiority in front of me!

I'm a transmigrator too — did I go bragging about it?
