Elf: How do you cultivate immortality in the elf world?

Chapter 2: The bond between trainers and Pokémons throughout their lives
The head teacher was not very satisfied with Lu Li's answer. After all, Lu Li's answer was too brief.

The homeroom teacher added, “The so-called bond is actually the invisible but real connection between the trainer and the Pokémon.

As the Pokémon grows stronger, the trainer will also grow stronger. The stronger the bond between the Pokémon and the trainer, the more benefits the trainer will gain as they grow with the Pokémon.

The most obvious feature is that as the Pokémon grows, the trainer's reaction ability will improve and physical fitness will also be strengthened. According to Dr. Chen Mu's research, the natural lifespan of a normally grown-up Elite-level trainer can reach 200 years.

The time it takes for a Pokémon to enter old age can even be pushed back to after the age of 120. This is the greatest benefit of the bond between a trainer and his Pokémon."

After a lengthy speech, the homeroom teacher took a sip from the water cup on the podium, then continued, "Tomorrow you will be able to capture your first Pokémon. Now, does anyone know why the first Pokémon must be raised from Pokémon Eggs?"

"I know!"

Li Sen, who was standing behind Lu Li, raised his hand high.

The head teacher is still very kind when facing students who actively answer questions.

"Because of what?"

"Because of the bond! The Pokémon that just came out of the Pokémon egg will form a stronger bond with the trainer." Li Sen said excitedly.

The homeroom teacher nodded in satisfaction, then continued, "So, if you want to become a trainer, it's best to start by raising your first Pokémon from a Poké Egg. This is related to your future. Even new trainers born into wealthy families don't raise their first Pokémon until they are 16 years old."

Lu Li, sitting at the podium, seemed to be lost in thought.

In fact, in this world, the bond between trainers and Pokémon is extremely important, and those noble families have thought about letting the younger generations in the family raise Pokémon from a young age.

But children have unstable minds, and almost most of them will regard their elves as toys or pets when they are young.

The consequence of this is that the bond between the trainer and the Pokémon is insufficient, resulting in the Pokémon's strength increasing rapidly, but the trainer's level cannot keep up with the Pokémon's growth rate.

After all, the bond between a trainer and a Pokémon depends on the feelings given and accepted by both parties, not on a one-sided basis.

This is a lesson learned by the aristocratic families at the cost of blood, so the league set the age for new trainers at 16.

However, because he was an adult and he also loved Pokémon in his previous life, Lu Li adopted Clownish at a very young age and always regarded it as his family.

This can be considered an invisible benefit for time travelers.

"Starting tomorrow, the school curriculum will be changed to two days a week, Monday and Tuesday. You can arrange the rest of the time as you like." The head teacher then announced.

Hearing this, the students in the class became excited instantly.

"Great! I'll have my own partner tomorrow!"

"Invincible Beedrill, your trainer is here."

"Hahaha, my family has already prepared a Kokodora elf egg for me. In the national college entrance examination in half a year, I will definitely get first place in Qingfeng City."

Listening to the noise of his classmates, Lu Li lowered his head, deep in thought.

The trainer college entrance examination in this world is divided into two parts: the cultural examination that ended some time ago, and the college entrance examination competition half a year later.

Students who want to become trainers will start preparing for the college entrance examination starting tomorrow, while students who do not want to be trainers can take a full six months off.

According to the original plan, Lu Li was planning to become an elf breeder.

On the one hand, he had not yet officially entered the Qi training stage, and his golden finger was almost half-wasted. In addition, his family was poor and did not have enough money to buy and cultivate elves, so Lu Li set his first goal as elf cultivation.

But now it was different. After entering the Qi training stage, he could already be considered a superhuman. Converted into the strength of this world, he could already be compared to a senior elf.

Novice, ordinary, veteran, elite, gym, king, champion, master, and leader, this is the official strength level classification of trainers and Pokémons by the Pokémon League.

In the small Qingfeng City, elite trainers can be said to be the ceiling.

With the strength of a senior level, you should be able to find an elf egg if you go to the wild without provoking social elves, right?
As for spending money to buy it?
Lu Li had never considered this option. The starting price of an elf egg was 50,000, and his entire family assets only added up to 100,000.

After making up his mind, Lu Li silently picked up a four-centimeter-thick book and started reading.

The Elf Prop Master, from Beginner to Die

In this world, in addition to trainers, there are many other professions related to Pokémons, such as Pokémon growers, Pokémon item makers, Pokémon breeders, Pokémon researchers, and Pokémon archaeologists.

Lu Li, who originally wanted to cultivate elves, didn't have to come to school, but the school library was free.

After school, the head teacher called Lu Li.

After following the head teacher to her office, Lu Li looked at her curiously.

"Lu Li, are you planning to become a Pokémon trainer?" asked the head teacher.

Lu Li hesitated for a moment before nodding and saying, "Yes, I just decided this morning as well."

Seeing that Lu Li actually wanted to become a trainer, the homeroom teacher's eyes flashed with surprise, and then asked, "But your family conditions are probably not enough to support you becoming a Pokémon trainer, right?"

This is indeed an embarrassing question.

Lu Li looked at the head teacher curiously. The other party called him to the office specifically, and it shouldn't be for him to make fun of him. After all, the head teacher is not that kind of person.

As a teacher, Laoban is definitely a qualified teacher.

"Are you willing to accept the sponsorship?" asked the head teacher.

Hearing this, Lu Li asked directly: "Is it a family or a consortium?"

"family."

The old teacher added, "The family behind me is considered a gym-level family. Although I, your teacher, am only a branch of the family, I also have a recommendation quota."

After hesitating for a moment, Lu Li declined politely, "Teacher, I don't want to be too deeply tied to a certain force."

If there was no golden finger, Lu Li would definitely be happy to accept the sponsorship.

To put it bluntly, this so-called sponsorship means that someone invests in you in the early stage, and then you sell yourself to work for them in the later stage.

This is equivalent to some companies recruiting students who are still in school in advance. For ordinary people, this is definitely a good thing.

After all, working is for earning money, and normal people know to choose jobs with high benefits and high salary.

The old class teacher was not surprised by Lu Li's refusal. There is a saying that shallow water cannot support a dragon, but this saying does not apply to Lu Li.

The 16-year-old junior elf grower is very talented even in elf breeding. Such talent is considered a genius even in those first-tier cities.

It's just that Qingfeng City is a remote and poor place, and those big families don't bother to pay attention to these places, otherwise Lu Li would have been discovered and poached by those families long ago.
