Pokémon: Starting with a strongman and a slacker

"This is right!"

Cao Fanghua suddenly moved closer to Bai Jing!

"Given your disdainful attitude towards me, I've decided to punish you!"

"What do you want to do?"

"What you were thinking when you came in is what I'm thinking now!"

Is this considered punishment? It's clearly a reward!

"Senior teacher, you really know how to have fun!"

The next morning, Bai Jing once again arrived at the dormitory with an air of indifference.

After thinking about it, I put my raised foot down.

"If I really kick the door down, I'll be the one who suffers. I'll just use the key!"

Unsurprisingly, the three single guys were still sleeping.

"Get up, get up!"

The three of them wailed in unison!

"I get it now. With Brother Bai around, we can forget about sleeping until we naturally wake up!"

"Hey Bai, you didn't come back again last night. Did you go out fooling around again?"

"There's nothing I can do, Teacher Cao just keeps bothering me."

Yes, after the office yesterday, the two went to the rented apartment.

"Damn! This is what real college life is like. Compared to this, we're just miserable!"

"Brother Bai, you might as well move out. You haven't slept in this dorm room a single night."

Now that you mention it, it's true. He hooked up with Cao Fanghua as soon as he arrived, and then went camping at the base. His own bed was practically just for show.

"Stop talking nonsense and get up now, it's time to assemble!"

After saying that, she picked up her clothes and went into the bathroom.

"You're hogging the toilet again!"

"What is the point of us rising up?"

Upon arriving at the arena, Cao De beckoned Bai Jing over.

"Professor, what do you want?"

"The competition is about to start. Haven't you forgotten the boast you made?"

Bai Jing said earnestly, "Professor, that's not boasting, I'm just stating the facts!"

Cao De was both amused and exasperated. "You really aren't modest, kid!"

"Alright, since you're so confident, then I'll wait to see how proud I am, but..."

"If you lose, don't blame me for punishing you!"

It's okay, you punish me, I'll punish your daughter, we won't lose out!

"Professor, if I lose, I'll be punished. But what if I win? Is there a reward?"

"Great, so you've set your sights on me!"

Tell me, what reward do you want?

Bai Jing chuckled and said, "My request isn't high, just give me a quasi-god! As a renowned doctor, this small request shouldn't be difficult for you, right?"

Quasi-godlike? Not difficult at all.

Cao De coughed up a mouthful of blood!

Chapter 51: Prize Upgrade - Champion-Level Starter Pokémon.

"You're really asking for the moon, kid. Do you think pseudo-gods are as cheap as cabbages?"

Bai Jing stared at him in shock, "A renowned doctor can't even get his hands on a pseudo-god? No way, really?"

Holy crap! This kid's got a death wish!

Cao De rubbed his head, feeling a headache coming on; he shouldn't have called him over.

"You don't need to provoke me, no matter how much you provoke me, I still can't get a pseudo-god!"

"All right!"

Bai Jing sighed deeply, "My admiration for my mentor has completely vanished!"

He turned and left in disappointment.

"You bastard, stop here!"

Bai Jing's eyes lit up—there's a chance!

"Very esteemed professor, is there anything else you need?"

Cao De gritted his teeth and said, "I can't get a pseudo-legendary, but I can get a dragon-type with the potential to become a Champion!"

I was actually forced into this situation by my students, but I couldn't lose face as their mentor!

"It's alright, Professor. The Uranus type is already pretty good. I'm not picky!"

Uranus is good? You really dare to say that!

"It's settled then, on the condition that you win the match and bring honor to me!"

"Absolutely! I guarantee you'll have a radiant, glowing face... no, a healthy glow!"

"You can get lost now, I feel disgusted just looking at you."

"Sure, sure, I'll disappear right away!"

Bai Jing was secretly pleased; this was truly an unexpected gain!

As time went on, more and more people arrived, not only new students but also returning students.

With only a few days left before the start of the semester, many returning students arrived early to watch the freshmen's matches.

After all, the Rookie of the Year is always the focus of attention.

Principal Guan Bei arrived surrounded by a crowd.

"There are quite a few people here today!"

"Students, it's a rare treat for your seniors to come and watch your competition, so you must give it your all and strive for a good ranking!"

"Now I announce the rules of the game!"

"Three players are randomly assigned to fight in turn, and the best-of-three rule is adopted. If a player wins two consecutive matches, he or she will advance directly to the next round. This process is repeated until a champion is determined."

This method is good because it avoids two strong players meeting too early, and the strong player is eliminated early on.

"This is the same rule as in previous years, but it's nothing new, so I plan to add one more rule this year."

Unexpected change?

Everyone looked at Guan Bei, wondering what he was up to.

"The rule is that whoever wins ten consecutive matches will advance directly to the finals!"

"That is, defending the title. Anyone can go up to challenge, and you must win ten consecutive matches."

Everyone gasped in surprise and began to discuss it animatedly!

"Winning ten games in a row is simply impossible!"

"The Pokémon used in the competition are still too weak, and their stamina alone is not enough to sustain them."

"That's right, let alone ten matches, even three would be difficult, even for dragon-type creatures known for their strong physiques!"

"Not only that, the principal said that anyone can go up and challenge, which means that they will be targeted by attributes, making it even more difficult."

"In conclusion, the principal's new rule is just empty talk; anyone who actually goes up to defend their title is a fool!"

Not only were the freshmen shaking their heads, but the upperclassmen also felt that this was impossible.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Guan Bei smiled and said, "Of course, this rule is just my temporary suggestion. If you think it can't be done, you don't have to pay attention to it."

"By the way, if you choose to defend your title, you'll be eliminated immediately if you lose, and there won't be a second chance!"

"Challengers are different; it doesn't matter if they lose, they can continue to participate in the competition."

Everyone was speechless; this rule was clearly targeting the reigning champion.

What was the principal thinking? Making it so difficult, does he really think someone will go up to defend the title?

Impossible! Absolutely impossible!

Bai Jing treated it as a joke; someone as shrewd as him would never do something so disadvantageous.

So he shouted, "Principal, you can leave now. Only a fool would cooperate with your ridiculous actions!"

After saying that, he hid behind Yun Ying!

The other party looked completely bewildered!
