Chapter 58

Su Yu shook his head. "No, I've already made arrangements with someone else to form a military training team."

The three roommates asked curiously, "Could it be that girl who stood behind you during orientation? She's very pretty; is she your girlfriend?"

Su Yu nodded.

All three let out wails of despair. "Damn it! We never expected that right at the start of the semester, someone would betray our Single Alliance and find a girlfriend."

Before long, Yan Ruyue from the Coordination Department and Gu Ying from the International Academy arrived.

Seeing Yan Ruyue standing gracefully not far away, Su Yu waved to signal her.

Yan Ruyue and Gu Ying jogged over. "Phew, I didn't expect we'd have to undergo military training too; it's truly miserable," Gu Ying complained with a pout.

Yan Ruyue, however, looked at the three people beside Su Yu and asked, "Are these your roommates?"

Upon seeing Yan Ruyue, all three stepped forward to greet her.

"Hello, sister-in-law! We are Su Yu's roommates."

"That's right. We didn't expect sister-in-law to be so beautiful! If sister-in-law has any good-looking roommates, please introduce them to us."

"Yes, yes. Although Su Yu is taken, the three of us are still single."

"Hello, I'm Yan Ruyue, and this one beside me is Gu Ying." Yan Ruyue covered her mouth and chuckled lightly. "I'll make introductions when there's a chance."

"Then we'll leave our lifelong marital matters in sister-in-law's hands."

"Exactly. We won't disturb your lovey-dovey moment any longer; we still need to catch Pokémon, so we'll be off."

"Then our lifelong matter is entirely in Sister-in-law's hands."

With that, the three departed.

Watching them leave, Su Yu turned to Gu Ying beside him.

"Why are you here too?"

Su Yu's meaning was obvious: The two of us are about to cuddle, kiss, and lift each other up high; what business does a third wheel like you have here?

Gu Ying chuckled dryly. "Can't I come? I am Ruyue's best friend, after all."

"Besides, I'm not stupid; sticking with you two will definitely make things much easier."

Gu Ying had her own calculations in mind: if she went out with her roommates, none of them had any experience in secret realms, so their journey would surely be miserable.

Following Su Yu, however, would absolutely avoid such embarrassment.

After all, Su Yu possessed considerable experience in secret realms.

Therefore, Gu Ying had immediately sought out Yan Ruyue and begged persistently until she secured this opportunity.

Seeing Gu Ying in this state, Su Yu could only let her be.

He couldn't exactly drive her away.

"Since you insist on coming, you must follow my commands entirely," Su Yu stated.

Gu Ying nodded vigorously, indicating she had no objections.

"In that case, let's go."

With that, Su Yu led Yan Ruyue and Gu Ying deeper into the secret realm.

As they walked, Su Yu suggested continuing along the realm's river.

This would make it convenient to replenish their water supply.

The two girls naturally had no objections and followed behind Su Yu.

Returning to the secret realm, Su Yu felt he was becoming familiar with this place.

During the summer break, he had frequently entered the secret realm to level up his Pokémon.

Su Yu planned to head today toward the western-northern plain mentioned in the letter.

Then he would wait there, ensuring he could spot the appearance of Aron at any moment.

Along the way, Su Yu seemed to recall something.

He glanced at Yan Ruyue beside him and asked, "How is your Feebas doing now?"

Yan Ruyue replied, "It seems Feebas is becoming more energetic, but it hasn't evolved yet."

Then he waited there, making it convenient to notice Shelgon's appearance at any time.

"Then use the Beauty Scale from my Milotic; that will allow it to evolve immediately."

Yan Ruyue expressed some concern. "Won't using Milotic's Beauty Scale cause any harm to your Pokémon?"

Su Yu pinched her nose. "What are you thinking? The Beauty Scale is just a scale from Milotic's body; it's not like we're taking Milotic's life."

Yan Ruyue shook her head and pulled away from Su Yu's hand.

"Then let's use my Milotic's beautiful scales; that way, it can evolve directly."

Thus, upon reaching the riverside, Su Yu summoned his Milotic.

Su Yu pinched her nose. "What are you thinking? Beautiful scales are just scales from a Milotic's body; no one is asking for the Milotic's life."

As soon as Milotic appeared, it eagerly coiled around Su Yu.

Yan Ruyue also summoned her Feebas.

Through the observation of Su Yu's Appraisal Eye, Feebas's Beauty stat had now reached 150.

It was only a slight margin away from evolution.

"Milotic, please trouble you to shed one scale."

Yan Ruyue also sent out her own Feebas.

After observation by Su Yu's Appraisal Eye, the Feebas's Beauty stat had now reached 150.

It was only a hair's breadth away from evolution.

"Milotic, please trouble yourself to spare a single scale."

Su Yu patted Milotic's head and spoke.

"Wuu!" Milotic nodded, then flicked its tail, plucked a seven-colored scale from its body, and handed it to Su Yu.

After taking it, Su Yu passed it to Yan Ruyue.

"Just place this scale on Feebas's head, and Feebas should be able to evolve."

Yan Ruyue nodded.

Holding the beautiful scale, she solemnly placed it upon Feebas's forehead.

"Hum!"

The moment it touched Feebas, a light of evolution emanated from the creature's body.

Shortly after, a serpentine Pokémon appeared in the water.

It was none other than Milotic.

Although this Milotic's aptitude was slightly inferior to Su Yu's, it did not matter.

Beside them, Gu Ying watched the scene with envy.

"It evolved already? So simply?"

Su Yu replied, "Of course. As long as you give Feebas a Beautiful Scale, it will evolve."

Gu Ying clenched her fists. "No way! Seeing that you two both have new Pokémon, I must catch a cute new one too!"

Su Yu exhorted, "Then do your best."

"Hmph! Just wait and see; my new Pokémon will definitely have nine-star potential too!"

Having said this, Gu Ying began scanning the surrounding area for Pokémon, seemingly trying to find the specific kind she wanted.

Upon reaching the plain in the northwest direction mentioned in the letter, Su Yu suggested they start their adventure right there.

The surroundings of the plain were filled with pitted rocks, while weeds and trees were sparse, with little greenery in sight.

Right in the center stood a massive rock.

It was four or five meters tall and looked like a giant egg.

After the three of them arrived at this location, they began searching for a suitable spot.

Once found, Su Yu did not rush to set up the tent but attended to other matters first.

This was because if they pitched the tent too early, passing wild Pokémon might destroy it.

Therefore, Su Yu decided to search the vicinity for berries first.

"Why go looking for berries? Didn't you bring food for your Pokémon?"

Gu Ying asked, somewhat curious.
