"Die!" Lin Xiaolin immediately executed a death chokehold.

After playing around for a while, everyone washed up and went to bed.

Lin Xiaolin used the ointment Yan Fan had given him during the day while taking a bath that night. Sure enough, as soon as he got out of the bathtub, he was completely different from before, and his skin color returned to its original state.

The next morning at seven o'clock, Lin Xiaolin was woken up by her alarm clock. After getting up, getting ready, and washing up, she went to the classroom with the others. The other three were quite surprised. How come she was so dark yesterday but suddenly turned white today?

However, after hearing the explanation, they understood. As they walked, they ran into several senior students they had met in the cafeteria the day before. They greeted them warmly and then left.

The morning session was still a breeding class, but unlike yesterday's, Teacher Lin collected information about the characteristics of their Pokémon and taught them individually how to handle the hatching of their Pokémon, instead of just having a general hatching method.

The afternoon was still filled with the tedious political class. Their trainer class no longer needed to take academic classes; only specialized academic classes required them. Now, they were focused on three subjects: training, politics, and Pokémon.

However, once the Pokémon hatches, they will start taking battle-specific classes, and the time for the other three subjects will be greatly reduced. After the Pokémon passes through the infancy stage, they will begin formal battles and training, at which point the time spent in the classroom will be even less.

Back then, just like the current seniors in their second and third years of high school, most of our classes were held at the training ground.

The monotonous class time passed by day by day until Friday. Xingcheng No.1 High School does not have weekends off, but there is a week-long holiday at the end of each month.

Chapter 21 Hatching, Heartscale Treasure

On Friday morning, everyone was having their usual nurturing class, and Teacher Lin was explaining the issues related to the baby Pokémon as gently as ever.

"Ding ding ding! Ding ding ding!" The elf egg that Lin Xiaolin was holding made a piercing sound.

"Students, you can all go out now. Lin's Pokémon is about to hatch." Teacher Lin immediately realized what was happening, clapped her hands, and ushered the remaining four students out of the breeding room.

"Oh, right, could one of you go up to the third floor and bring down two bottles of Moo Moo milk? Remember to tell the cook you want the Moo Moo milk for the juvenile stage." After saying that, Teacher Lin closed and locked the door to the nursery.

"Lin, come over here. Wait for me to heat up the water, then take the Pokémon egg out of the incubator and wipe the nutrient solution off the eggshell first." With that, Teacher Lin quickly walked to the cleaning device, released some hot water, and then fixed the water temperature to the set temperature.

Lin Xiaolin was completely dazed and extremely nervous until Teacher Lin called him, which woke him up.

Following Teacher Lin's instructions, Lin Xiaolin first took the Pokémon egg out of the incubator. The cracks on the egg were already clearly visible. She then removed the alarm that was still ringing and placed it aside. Next, she took the egg out and placed it in water at the right temperature, with the water just covering half of the egg. Finally, she gently wiped the eggshell with her hand while it was wet.

"Teacher Lin, Teacher Lin, we've brought the Moo Moo Milk! Open the door quickly!" Yan Fan and Shi Anyang's anxious voices and knocking came from outside the door.

Teacher Lin walked to the door, opened it, took the two bottles of Moo Moo milk from the glass bottles, and then closed and locked the door again.

He poured two bottles of MooMoo Milk into a large bowl, placed it in a special container for heating milk, and then handed two brand-new towels and a Poké Ball to Lin Xiaolin.

"When the Jawful is born, remember what I taught you before: first, use a damp towel to wipe its entire body. The Jawful's scales are soft when it's first born, so be very gentle. After cleaning off all the mucus, you can feed it Moo Moo Milk. I've already warmed the milk for you. After you're done, just use this Poké Ball to catch it. Newborn Pokémon won't refuse you, but be gentle. Release it immediately after catching it; newborn Pokémon love to stick close to their trainers. I'm going out now; the rest is up to you."

"Okay, thank you, Teacher Lin!" Lin Xiaolin accepted the towel and Poké Ball from Teacher Lin and thanked her. Teacher Lin nodded and left, closing the door behind her.

Lin Xiaolin placed the Poké Ball aside, holding a towel in one hand and gently stroking the Pokémon egg with the other. Suddenly remembering something, she took out a Poké Ball from her pocket and released Little Blue as well.

As soon as Xiao Lan appeared, she noticed the fairy egg in the water.

"Little Scale, is it coming out soon?" Little Blue also stood next to the cleaning device.

"Yes, it'll be out soon, Sister Xiaolan, I'm a little nervous."

"It's okay, I'll help you from the side." Xiao Lan comforted Lin Xiao Lin from the side, her eyes also fixed on the Pokémon egg whose cracks were getting bigger and bigger.

After waiting for a full half hour, the clicking sound from the Pokémon egg suddenly grew louder. Lin Xiaolin knew the little guy was about to come out, so she quickly soaked the towel in warm water with both hands and wrung it out.

With a snap, the egg finally cracked open completely, and a tiny head emerged, followed by four limbs. Once it was fully out of the shell, Lin Xiaolin quickly cradled the little creature in her hands.

The Heartscale Baby looks like a baby dragon, with a large heart-shaped scale on its head, teardrop-shaped scales all over its back, and scales even on the tip of its tail.

"Chirp~" Xinlinbao made a weak sound. Lin Xiaolin supported Xinlinbao with one hand and gently wiped the sticky substance off Xinlinbao's body with a towel with the other. By the time she finished wiping, Lin Xiaolin was covered in sweat, but it wasn't from exhaustion, it was from nervousness.

Just as he finished wiping the little guy up and picked him up, Xiao Lan handed him another dry towel. Lin Xiaolin took it and carefully wiped the water droplets off Xinlinbao's body. Xinlinbao lay quietly in his arms, enjoying the feeling.

After completely drying the little guy's body, Xiao Lan handed him the bowl of Moo Moo milk. As soon as Xinlinbao smelled the Moo Moo milk, he immediately plunged his whole head into it to drink.

Before long, Xinlinbao finished drinking all of Moo Moo Milk. After eating and drinking its fill, it burped and fell fast asleep in Lin Xiaolin's arms.

Lin Xiaolin raised the Poké Ball with one hand and gently touched it to the Heartscale Pokémon. The Heartscale Pokémon turned into a red light and disappeared, while the Poké Ball flashed with red light.

"Ding~ Ding~ Ding!" The red light stopped after flashing only twice. Lin Xiaolin quickly released the Heartscale Treasure again. The little guy was still fast asleep and didn't notice anything.

Lin Xiaolin looked at the Heartscale Pokémon in her arms in a daze. She had finally captured her first Pokémon!

"Little Scale, you did it!" Little Blue also showed a happy expression.

"Yes, thanks to Sister Xiaolan. Let's go out and show Yan Fan and the others!" With that, Lin Xiaolin carried Xinlinbao out.

The moment the door opened, the four people at the door, including Teacher Lin, all crowded around.

"Wow, is this the Heartscale Baby? It's so cute!" Qin Lele exclaimed.

Can I have a hug?

"No!" Qin Lele had barely finished speaking when Teacher Lin stopped her.

"Newborn Pokémon are very attached to their trainers, and generally, no one else should be allowed near them for at least three days. Lin, come with me to the infirmary to check if your Pokémon has any defects." With that, Teacher Lin pulled Lin Xiaolin upstairs.

This was Lin Xiaolin's first time on the second floor. The senior students were training their Pokémon in the battle arena. When they saw Teacher Lin bringing Lin Xiaolin, they all came over to watch. However, when they saw that it was a newly hatched Pokémon, they did not get too close.

"Holy crap, that's a Heartscale Treasure! It's practically a god!"

"What kind of Pokémon is Heartscale? I've never heard of it before."

"You were studying and you went on an airplane ride without even knowing that it's a pseudo-legendary. The final evolution of Heartscale is Kommo-o, which is a powerful dragon-type pseudo-legendary!"

"Are this year's juniors really that strong? There's even a near-god-level player among them!"

Lin Xiaolin didn't feel anything while listening to the chatter of her seniors. She was used to being the center of attention since she was a child.

"Old Liu, come check this out quickly!"

After all the examinations were completed in the infirmary, Teacher Lin sent him back to his dormitory to stay with Xinlinbao. She told him to bring him out again in three days, and that someone would bring him food for the next few days.

After Teacher Lin returned to the classroom and told the other four about it, Shi Anyang volunteered to take on the responsibility of bringing lunch.

Chapter 22 Heartscale Treasure

Lin Xiaolin carried the fast-sleeping Xinlin back to her bedroom.

"Xiao Lin, go take a shower first. I'll take care of this little guy." Xiao Lan said, pointing to Lin Xiao Lin's clothes. Lin Xiao Lin's short-sleeved shirt was already soaked in the chest area, and there was also the mucus from when the Heartscale Baby hatched stuck to his clothes. If Xiao Lan hadn't pointed it out, Lin Xiao Lin wouldn't have noticed it himself. His attention was completely focused on the Heartscale Baby.

"Okay, I'll go take a shower first." With that, she handed the Heartscale Treasure to Little Blue.

After showering and returning to the bedroom, Lin Xiaolin took the still fast asleep Xinlinbao from the baby. Only then did she have time to check Xinlinbao's stats:

Pokémon: Heartscale

Attribute: dragon

Level: Birth Period

Gender: male

Feature: Bulletproof [Greatly reduces physical damage taken]

Inherited Skill: Dragon Breath, Double Back

Learning skills:

Skills: Impact, Gaze

Introduction: The Heartscale lives in a remote mountain village and is a warrior who values ​​honor. Although it possesses an innate warrior's pride, it maintains a humble attitude towards its own strength. Its fur has transformed into scales as hard as metal. It communicates with its companions by striking their head scales together, conveying their feelings and learning combat methods—a process that hones their skills and willpower. It also uses the sounds from its head scales to communicate with its companions. It is extremely brave.

Judging from this, this little guy's father must be a fire-breathing dragon, right? Lin Xiaolin wasn't really sure either, after all, he had been away from the original time for more than ten years, and he couldn't remember many things clearly.

Moreover, there are many differences between games and reality. For example, the skills, characteristics, and attributes of Pokémon. In the game, the skill "Protect" can defend against the opponent's attack 100% if it is used. In reality, if you are strong enough, you can be blasted into dust with one skill.

For the next three days, Lin Xiaolin stayed in the bedroom with Xinlinbao, only leaving the room to use the toilet and take a shower.

Xinlinbao was unusually sleepy a couple of days ago, basically just eating and sleeping. Its appetite was getting bigger every day. At first, it was two bottles of Moo Moo milk per meal, but now it was three bottles. Its size was also getting bigger and bigger, and gradually Lin Xiaolin found it a bit difficult to hold it.

Lin Xiaolin also took the time to make a video call home. His parents on the other end of the video were very happy to see Xinlinbao, but the two little devils were the happiest. It was the weekend when the call was made, and the two little devils were at home. As soon as they saw Lin Xiaolin's Xinlinbao, they immediately told him to bring him home to play with them when he had a holiday.

On the third day, Xinlinbao was finally less sleepy, and the little guy ran around the bedroom after finishing his Moo Moo milk.

"Chirp!" The little guy ran around the bedroom floor, then rubbed against Xiao Lan's legs, before returning to Lin Xiaolin's feet and rubbing against Lin Xiaolin's legs.

Lin Xiaolin squatted down and gently stroked Xinlinbao's head. Xinlinbao's scales were no longer as soft as when it was first born; now they were like armor, making a clattering sound.

On the morning of the fourth day, Lin Xiaolin was not woken up by an alarm clock, but by the sound of Xinlinbao banging her head against the door.

When Lin Xiaolin opened her eyes, she found that her sleeping baby, Xinlinbao, was nowhere to be seen. The little guy was banging his head against the door.

"What's wrong, Xinlinbao?" Lin Xiaolin asked, getting up in confusion.

"Chirp! Chirp!" As soon as Xinlinbao saw that Lin Xiaolin was awake, it rushed over and kept chirping.

“He wants to go out and play. Every time he sees other people bringing things over from there, he thinks he can go out from there.” Xiao Lan’s voice came from behind Lin Xiaolin.

Xiao Lan has been feeling quite aggrieved lately. Before this little guy came along, she and Lin Xiao Lin always slept together. But now that this little guy is here, there's no room left in the bed, so she has to go back to her Poké Ball to sleep. She can't possibly compete with this little guy for attention, can she?

"Do you want to go out?" Lin Xiaolin asked Xinlinbao, whose big head nodded frantically.

"Okay, wait for me, I'll take you out." After saying that, Lin Xiaolin checked the time. It was already 6:50, which was about right. She got dressed and opened the bedroom door.

As soon as the bedroom door opened, Xinlinbao dashed into the living room like an arrow, running around aimlessly, wandering here and there. Sometimes he couldn't stop and would bump into the wall or furniture with a bang, but he would get up, shake his head, and continue running around.

Lin Xiaolin ignored the excited little guy and went straight to wash up. As soon as she came out, she saw that the other four had also gotten up and were squatting on the ground, teasing the grinning Xinlinbao.

"Xinlinbao, come here!" Lin Xiaolin called out, and Xinlinbao immediately turned around and ran to his feet.

"This little guy is really brave. Everyone says that newborn elves are very timid. I just saw him biting the sofa leg, so I touched him, and he bit my hand." Yan Fan covered his right hand, which had a row of teeth marks on it, but they weren't very deep.
