you must have chosen a good one.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the two prominent figures of Class 3A, Su Yu and Yan Ruyue could be said to be the center of the class.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only did they excel academically and possess perfect looks, but they were also childhood sweethearts, making others envious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Throughout, the pair had always been the core topic of Class 3A.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, everyone in Class 3A was quite curious about which Pokémon Su Yu and the other had chosen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing his classmates' questions, Yan Ruyue answered, \"I chose Fennekin, and Su Yu chose Torchic.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, the students of Class 3A were filled with envy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sigh, our academic scores already lag far behind yours two, and now we can't compete in Pokémon either.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When Torchic evolves into Blaziken, it looks so cool, like a martial artist;

you will definitely need them for the proficiency exam.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Yu nodded to indicate he understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even without Wang Wang Yubo saying so, he would have gone anyway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he possessed the divine skill of Experience Acquisition; it would be a terrible waste not to use others to farm experience.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Su Yu and Yan Ruyue finished registering, they left the school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today was the day for students to select their sprites; after choosing, they could return home to report the news to their parents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Yan Ruyue was naturally overjoyed, unable to wait to go home and share the news with her parents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Downstairs at the apartment building, Su Yu and Yan Ruyue parted ways.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Su Yu, aren't you going home to tell Auntie and Uncle?\" Yan Ruyue asked curiously, noticing Su Yu had no intention of heading home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No need, I have some urgent business at the abandoned power plant in the western suburbs,\" Su Yu said, waving his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Could it be that you're going to catch a sprite?\" Yan Ruyue immediately guessed Su Yu's intention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Yu could only nod; he hadn't expected to be seen through so instantly by Yan Ruyue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then you must be careful. I recall there are many high-level sprites at the western suburbs power plant. Shouldn't you borrow a sprite from Uncle before going?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Ruyue asked with some concern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't worry, I'll just look around outside and won't go in, so there's no danger. Even if I encounter a dangerous high-level sprite, I can still run away.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Yu found it slightly amusing; he wasn't ignorant of the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>006: Western Suburbs Power Plant, A Chance Encounter!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Su Yu speak this way, Yan Ruyue felt she couldn't persuade him further, so she headed home alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Yu, meanwhile, found a taxi by the roadside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The western suburbs power plant was still several kilometers away from their location.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although there was still some time before the treasure dragon mentioned in the letter would appear, Su Yu, believing it better to arrive early than late, had set out ahead of schedule.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Young man, where are you heading?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Trouble you to take me to the western suburbs power plant, uncle.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The taxi driver wore a smile on his face, looking very kind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You're a senior high student this year, right? You must have just finished selecting your starter sprite?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The taxi driver also paid close attention to current events and knew that today was the day for senior high students to select their sprites.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That little girl who was with you just now, she's your girlfriend, isn't she?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thinking back to when I, your uncle, was young, I was just as handsome as you, little brother.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The love letters I received back then, if stacked up, would be taller than me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now that I think about it, it's all just memories.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as they got in the car, the taxi driver began talking incessantly.\u003C\u002Fp>",1303,"2026-06-15T05:05:10.956Z","2026-06-15T05:58:58.101Z",1,"Qwen3.5 397B","4f720beaf9e3b6d014207c45537330a53f59db189beafe65b446ae983a3ba9a3","pokemon-intercepting-the-salamence-with-a-letter-chapter-5","pokemon-intercepting-the-salamence-with-a-letter-chapter-3",247,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fpokemon-intercepting-the-salamence-with-a-letter-cover.jpg"]
