I haven't decided on a name for my Pokémon trainer yet.

Chapter 86 Goodbye

"It's my turn next." Ning Xian, holding the elf, took Zhang Qiang's place.

"Xiao Xian, it's been a long time since we've had a match." Ye Feng smiled.

"Yes, let me show you the power of Eevee after its evolution. Go, Sylveon!"

"Miya~" Sylveon appeared on the field, letting out a cute cry, its ribbons swaying freely.

"Sylveon the Sylveon." Ye Feng stroked his chin. Although he had seen many in the game, this was the first time he had encountered one in real life.

Unfortunately, Eevee's ability is Adaptability. If it had Danger Awareness, it could evolve into a Fairy-skinned Sylveon, which would be a very powerful ability.

"Fairy Wind!"

Influenced by Ye Feng, Zhang Qiang and Ning Xian also learned to simplify their commands when directing Pokémon battles, no longer calling out the Pokémon's name first and then the move as before.

Sylveon's ribbons came together, then suddenly unfurled, sending a strong pink gust of wind towards Kirlia.

“Hold on with 'tenacity',” Ye Feng said.

Facing Fairy-type moves for the first time in actual combat, Ye Feng decided to let Kirlia experience the movement of Fairy energy, which might help her understand Magic Dazzle.

With its "Sturdy" protection, Kirlia remained unmoved by the Fairy Wind's attack and even took the opportunity to carefully comprehend its power.

"The voice of enchantment!"

Ning Xian naturally wouldn't let such a good opportunity slip by, and decisively gave the order.

Sylveon unfurled its ribbons, raised its head, and began to sing. As its song resounded throughout the arena, Kirlia... did not react at all.

"What's going on?" Ning Xian asked in surprise. Kirlia was always successful with this move, and Sylveon often used it to control its opponents and deliver the decisive blow in battle.

But why didn't Sylveon work against Kirlia?

“Hmm…” Ye Feng touched his nose. “Actually, Kirlia’s ‘Steel’ can resist a certain degree of control-type moves, but it’s useless if your mental strength is lower than itss.”

Since it's a defense formed by telekinesis, it's quite reasonable for it to have such characteristics.

Previously, he rarely encountered opponents who knew control-type moves. Zhang Qiang was the kind of person who was reckless and wouldn't learn such moves. As for other opponents, if he did encounter them, he might be defeated before he even had a chance to use them.

Therefore, the characteristic of "firmness" has never been revealed.

"Damn it, Ye Feng, you've been hiding this for so long!" Ning Xian clenched her fists.

Ye Feng was helpless; he couldn't be blamed for this.

"Since that's the case, let's just go for it, Flash of Light!" Ning Xian didn't hesitate.

Ye Feng was shocked. With Sylveon's pitiful physical attack ability, are you serious about using Quick Attack?

Sylveon exerted its strength in all four limbs, transforming into a white light and rushing towards Kirlia. Then, its ribbons unfurled, and a strong gust of wind swept towards Kirlia.

Kirlia maintained a "firm" defense, only being slightly forced back by the attack.

"Damn it, is this kind of attack not working? The claim that Psychic-type Pokémon are weak is a complete lie!" Ning Xian muttered to herself.

Ye Feng rubbed his nose. It's true that his physical strength is weak, but my Kirlia has high defense. Before, it was impossible to hit her, but now it's not only impossible to hit her, but it's also very difficult to break through her defense. As long as Kirlia's mental strength is sufficient, she can maintain a "strong" defense indefinitely, unless a very powerful move breaks through her defense in one go.

"Strong mental thoughts!"

Ye Feng wasn't about to let Sylveon get away at such close range, so he immediately ordered Kirlia to use Psychic, which sent Sylveon flying.

Ning Xian felt helpless watching Sylveon struggle to get up from the ground.

Sylveon doesn't know any powerful attack moves yet, and Charm is useless against Kirlia. Exhausting its psychic energy is obviously not an option either. There's no way to fight it.

Unexpectedly, Ye Feng had fallen so far ahead of them without them even realizing it.

The following battles were not very interesting; Sylveon was no match for Kirlia and was quickly defeated.

"I'm not playing anymore, it's too uncomfortable!" Ning Xian, like Zhang Qiang, is actually the more aggressive type.

It's truly frustrating to encounter an opponent like Ye Feng, whose defense and evasion are maxed out, and whose attack power has also been significantly increased.

"Fatty, you're here?" Ye Feng glanced at Gu Siming and grinned.

"Okay, I'll do it!" Gu Siming rolled up his sleeves and stepped forward.

Huh? Ye Feng sensed something was wrong. Why was this fat guy coming towards him? Wait, what are you doing?

"I'll crush you!" Gu Siming pounced like a hungry tiger, using his massive body to press down on Ye Feng.

"Are you trying to kill me?!" Ye Feng was startled. If Gu Siming's weight pressed down on him, wouldn't he have to go back immediately? He quickly dodged and ran around the field.

Seeing the two of them playfully fighting, Zhang Qiang couldn't help but join in after watching for a while, chasing after Ye Feng with Gu Siming.

"Are you two crazy?! Help!!"

Ye Feng ran ahead, Zhang Qiang and Gu Siming chased after him, while Ning Xian laughed heartily on the side.

Next, Zhang Qiang and Ning Xian also had a match.

After the fight, the group found a small restaurant and casually ordered a few dishes.

During the meal, everyone ate with their heads down, and no one spoke. The food, which was usually quite delicious, tasted like cardboard at this moment.

Ye Feng kept shoveling rice into his mouth. These three people were among his closest friends. He figured they'd probably meet again during winter break, or maybe not even then.

Many people lose contact after graduating from high school, and if they bump into each other on the street later, they might not recognize each other. Some might look familiar, but they wouldn't be able to recall the name.

"Don't be so gloomy!" Gu Siming raised a glass of cola. "Graduating and going to university should be a happy thing, why are you all looking so down?" But the smile on his face looked forced no matter how you looked at it.

"Fatty's right, it's not like we'll never see each other again. Fatty, aren't you going to be an island owner and a capitalist in the future? When we come to your island to play, you're not allowed to charge us!" Ye Feng said, raising his Coke can and forcing a smile.

"Of course, absolutely no money required. I'll cover all your expenses for coming here," Gu Siming said, patting his chest confidently.

"Ye Feng, I won't lose to you next time we meet." Zhang Qiang raised his Coke.

"Ye Feng, you're not allowed to look at other girls when you go to college." Ning Xian held up a can of cola.

"Zhang Qiang, you too, when we meet, don't come crying to me saying you got brutally beaten at school." "You're talking nonsense!"

"Xiaoxian, don't just talk about me. You're not allowed to look at other handsome guys in college either. None of them are as handsome as me." "I won't! And what's so handsome about you?!"

"Cheers!" X4

Several days later, Jinghai Airport

Ye Feng carried a backpack, with Kirlia's Poké Ball hanging on his chest, Growlithe and Magikarp's Poké Balls hanging from his waist, and dragged a suitcase in his right hand.

Turning her head, she looked in the direction of the school, her own home, Zhang Qiang's home, Ning Xian's home, and Gu Siming's home in turn, and said softly, "See you during winter break, everyone."

He turned around and walked towards the starting point.

Ye Feng did not tell them the exact time he left.

However, in three corners that he couldn't see, Zhang Qiang stood with one hand on his hip, Gu Siming rubbed his round belly, and Ning Xian squatted down, touching the Sylveon at her feet.

They couldn't see each other, but at the same time they were both watching Ye Feng walking inside.

"See you during winter break, Ye Feng." X3

Chapter 87 Freshman Report

I found a hotel in Beijing and continued practicing my coding problems. There were only a few days left until the researcher's independent exam.

Ye Feng was well-prepared, and it wasn't exactly last-minute cramming; he was just trying to ensure he was in good condition so as not to embarrass himself by underperforming during the exam.

The exam time arrived quickly, and Ye Feng got up early to wash up and arrived at the exam room on time.

There are already quite a few people here. Some are reading books, while others are gathered together, probably discussing possible exam questions.

Most people were older than him, so Ye Feng's still somewhat childish face stood out.

There wouldn't be anyone he knew here, so Ye Feng casually found a place to sit down, closed his eyes, and waited for the exam to begin.

Time was up quickly. Ye Feng found his exam room and seat according to his admission ticket number and waited for the bell to ring before starting to answer the questions.

The exam went exceptionally smoothly, which is more a testament to Ye Feng's long preparation and numerous practice questions; it would have been strange if something unexpected had happened.

After finishing the questions and checking them, Ye Feng saw that he had half an hour left. After hesitating for a moment, he handed in his paper early. He had done everything he was supposed to do, and if he made mistakes, it was just because he wasn't good enough. He might as well save his energy for the next few exams.

Then the second match...the third match...

The researchers' self-administered exam lasts only one day, with two exams in the morning and three in the afternoon, which is quite a test of an individual's physical strength and energy.

The results will be released in ten days.

Imperial University

September 1st-3rd is the registration period for new students at Imperial Capital University.

As the top university in the north, Imperial Capital University is far superior to Peking University and Tsinghua University in Ye Feng's previous life, and ranks alongside Shanghai University in the south as the number one university in the country.

At the same time, both schools are among the best in the world.

In this world, compared to other majors, majors related to elf studies are more important and sought after, and these two universities are leaders in this field.

Master trainers can give a country more say, and the strength of a country's trainers also affects the country's national strength.

That's how it is in the world of elves, just like in the world of card players, where playing cards is everything.
