Chapter 27

This aroused a wave of curiosity among the surrounding residents.

"Isn't this car the most classic Audi A4 model? I heard that those who drive such cars are either immensely wealthy or hold some minor power."

"Ordinary people would never drive such a car. What is he doing here?"

"Could it be that a major figure has appeared in our residential compound? Looking at this car's license plate, it's certainly not simple."

"It must be some important person coming to our compound for a matter. I know everyone in our compound well, and I don't recall any family with such a strong background."

After receiving a phone reminder from Ruan Zhi at home, Su Yu left his house and headed downstairs.

Upon reaching the ground floor, he discovered a crowd gathered at the entrance.

They were all pointing and chatting, though no one knew exactly what they were saying.

"Auntie Wang, what are you all gathered here for?"

Su Yu casually asked one of the people.

"Oh, it's Su Yu." Seeing Su Yu, Auntie Wang smiled and said, "We've never seen an Audi A4 before, so we came over to take a look."

"Moreover, we also want to know who has such great capability to drive a car like this."

Audi A4? Su Yu felt somewhat puzzled, then looked at the car parked at the entrance.

Upon seeing the vehicle, Su Yu immediately realized that this was the special car Director Ruan had just told him about.

He tossed out a sentence and immediately walked over.

"Auntie Wang, actually, this car is here to pick me up. I won the championship in the unified exam, and the city government awarded me with a special vehicle to take me to select a Spirit."

Hearing Su Yu's words, Auntie Wang was stunned.

It was only when Su Yu had boarded the car and it slowly drove away that she finally reacted.

"Su Yu actually won the championship in the unified exam!?"

For people of their older generation, they paid little attention to online hot topics.

Furthermore, Yunhai City was merely a municipal district, so news of the unified exam champion did not cause any major stir online.

Therefore, none of them knew that Su Yu had actually secured the championship in this year's unified exam!

"Sister Wang! What did you say? Su Yu is this year's unified exam champion!?"

Hearing Auntie Wang's exclamation, someone nearby immediately asked.

"I'm not entirely sure either; Su Yu just told me. This car was specifically dispatched to take him to select a Spirit."

Auntie Wang said with some disbelief.

Although Su Yu had always studied well and shown great promise in the past,

they had never expected him to actually win the unified exam championship.

It was just like someone in the residential compound who always studied well suddenly becoming the top scorer in the college entrance examination!

This news left the crowd gathered there stunned for a long time.

"As expected of Su Yu. I always felt he had a bright future whenever I saw him. Now that he's won the unified exam championship, getting into a prestigious university is practically a sure thing."

"Su Yu's future is now unimaginable. He isn't in a relationship yet, is he? I should introduce my sister's daughter to him."

"Isn't your sister's daughter only just starting junior high school?"

"Yes, but that doesn't matter."

036: Dragon-Slaying Artifact, Ice Six-Tails!

After a ten-minute ride, Su Yu arrived at the Yunhai City Breeding Center.

Every city possesses its own unique Breeding Center.

Unlike other places, these Breeding Centers house nothing but Spirit Eggs.

The Starter Spirits distributed by the city to students are cultivated within these Breeding Centers.

It could be said that the City Breeding Center supplies Spirits for all the students in the city's schools.

It is the most important location in a city.

Being able to come here to select a Spirit is already considered extremely fortunate.

Starter Spirits, which are very difficult to obtain in the outside world, are found everywhere inside.

Of course, there are no Pseudo-Legendary Spirits.

Even if there were, someone would take them away immediately.

Therefore, the city's intention was to give Su Yu another Starter Spirit.

After getting out of the car, Su Yu was led by a staff member into the Breeding Center.

After passing through many rooms, the staff member brought Su Yu to their destination.

Inside a building covering several thousand square meters, rows of massive shelves were arranged.

On the shelves sat Spirit Eggs, each placed within glass containers.

These Spirit Eggs were currently all in an unhatched state.

They rested inside constant-temperature glass enclosures that maintained warmth year-round.

They awaited the day of their hatching.

"The ones on the outside are relatively common Spirits. Their potential is unknown."

"The ones in the middle are all Starter Spirits with better potential. The Starter Spirits sent to schools every year are hatched from these eggs."

"As for the ones at the very back, they are all Spirits obtained from who-knows-where. No one even knows if they can hatch successfully, so I do not recommend selecting them."

"Therefore, I still suggest picking one from the middle section."

The staff member's hint was very obvious; clearly, his superiors had briefed him beforehand.

Su Yu nodded and began to inspect them.

Unlike others, possessing the Eye of Appraisal allowed him to easily see through exactly what kind of Spirits these eggs contained.

Moreover, one could clearly see the Pokémon's potential after hatching.

Su Yu walked between the shelves, observing each of these Pokémon one by one.

A Caterpie with ordinary stats, a Spearow at the Gym Leader level with 2 perfect IVs, and an Onix of massive size.

Indeed, just as the staff had said, every kind of Pokémon was available.

Furthermore, their potential was entirely uncertain.

The best could reach the Elite Four level with 3 perfect IVs, while the worst had a total IV sum not even reaching 30.

However, that Elite Four-level Pokémon with 3 perfect IVs was a Graveler, which was useless to Su Yu, so he passed on it.

Continuing deeper inside, he finally reached the main event.

Here, all of them were starter Pokémon eggs.

Moreover, their potential was quite good; the average was significantly higher than that of the Pokémon eggs before.

Yet, although the average was decent, none of them particularly satisfied Su Yu.

After carefully looking around once, Su Yu decided to continue further back.

He wanted to see what kinds of Pokémon the eggs further back contained.

Not looking revealed nothing, but one look delivered a shock.

Half of the Pokémon eggs further back were already dead and lacked any hatching capability.

No wonder the staff had advised against choosing from the innermost section; it indeed appeared so.

If someone came here, gained the chance to choose, entered the innermost area, and picked a dead egg,

they would be left with tears but no recourse.

Such a fine opportunity would be wasted for nothing.

Fortunately, Su Yu could see through the information of these Pokémon eggs.

After scanning them once, his eyes lit up upon seeing one particular Pokémon egg.
