Chapter 9

"I'll take charge!"

The Dean of Students stepped forward; he had long been annoyed by Shen He's attitude!

"Student Shen He, given your egregious conduct, the school has grounds to cancel your college entrance exam results. You might as well repeat a year of school and learn to be a human!"

A bolt from the blue; Shen He was dumbfounded. I just cursed once. Is it necessary to make such a mountain out of a molehill?

"I won't accept this. You're bullying me by virtue of your power!"

"Oh? So you're saying I'm bullying you?"

The Dean of Students laughed in anger. "Very well! Come with me, and bring your parents too. We'll have a talk."

"I..."

Shen He wanted to cry. Although his family was wealthy, the Dean of Students wasn't afraid of them.

Everyone clapped enthusiastically. "Bravo, Dean!"

"Wait, this is my spoils of war!"

Bai Jing snatched the skill disc away, making Shen He nearly spit blood from anger.

"Students, a trainer's strength lies in command. It doesn't matter if the Pokémon is slightly lacking. Work hard; everyone has a chance to rise above the rest!"

"Well said!"

Bai Jing's pep talk won everyone over, and they clapped enthusiastically!

Watching him, radiant and spirited in the arena, Student Zhen Na's eyes sparkled. No wonder he's the man I chose. Excellent!

As she watched, she noticed he suddenly darted into the crowd.

No good, he's trying to run!

By the time Student Zhen Na ran over, not a trace of Bai Jing was to be seen, leaving her so angry she stamped her feet!

"Bai Jing, you irresponsible scoundrel, come back here!"

"You despicable fellow, you can't run away. I already know you applied to Long Zhi University. Don't think you can shake me off!"

Bai Jing, who had sprinted out of the school in one breath, finally let out a sigh of relief!

"Wasn't it just one night? Wouldn't it be better to part on good terms? Why must you cling on like this? What kind of propriety is this?"

"Not dignified at all. And they call you the goddess school beauty? Pfft!"

What school beauty, what love debt? He didn't want to deal with any of that now; he just wanted to go home early and check out the Pokémon egg the system gave him.

"Ding! Three o'clock direction, one thousand meters away, treasure detected."

"Huh? The system is acting so fast already! Not bad, not bad!"

"I remember that place is..."

A while later, Bai Jing entered the park and, following the system's instructions, arrived before a flowerbed.

After surveying the surroundings and seeing no one paying attention to this spot, he quickly ducked inside.

"Where's the treasure? I can't find it!"

"Ding! Host may dig into the ground."

"Good!"

"Lazurus, dig for me!"

For such rough, tiring work, of course, the Pokémon should do it.

A while later, Bai Jing held a purple gemstone in his hand, his eyes sparkling.

"It's actually an Attribute Gemstone. I'm rich, I'm rich!"

Long Zhi Gemstone: When carried by a Dragon-type Pokémon, it increases the power of Dragon-type moves by 30%.
