Anime & Comic Spirit: Newly Awakened System, Joined Group Chat

Her gaze quickly swept across the entire classroom.

One man and five women sat on the tatami mats; the combination of handsome men and beautiful women was particularly eye-catching.

On the low table in the center of the group were poured tea and several [Evolution Stones].

On the open ground to the side stood three little Pokémon: Charmeleon, Grovyle, and Prince of the Waves.

Seeing this, Hiratsuka Shizuka roughly understood what had just happened.

She didn't say much, but took in the postures and expressions of the five women.

Their bodies all leaned towards Bai Hao to varying degrees.

The details she unintentionally revealed were all attempts to get closer to Bai Hao.

Hiratsuka Shizuka thought of the scene she saw during her home visit to Shiraho's house a few days ago.

Bai Hao seems to be surrounded by quite a few beautiful women!

This guy is so popular with women!

She sighed inwardly, then gently took off her indoor shoes.

She stepped onto the tatami mat, her skin-colored silk robes dangling, and took two steps forward before finding a place to sit.

Looking at the increasingly cramped space, Yui could only sit close to Bai Hao.

Bai Hao withdrew his scrutinizing gaze, looked into Hiratsuka Shizuka's eyes, and asked,

"Did the teacher specifically call me over for something?"

A hint of embarrassment flashed in Hiratsuka Shizuka's eyes. After hesitating for a moment, she braced herself and explained her purpose.

You should know, right?

"The campus competition held in mid-March every year is a means of recruitment promotion."

"The same applies this year."

“In the past, the publicity department would just edit some videos and post them on the official accounts of various platforms.”

"The video received a lukewarm response."

"But this year, Zongwu High School suddenly had an additional explosive point."

At this point, Hiratsuka Shizuka's expression had returned to normal.

Her eyes were filled with admiration and pride as she looked at Bai Hao.

"Bai Hao's Six-Tailed Fox is a viral sensation online!"

"The popularity and search ranking of Soubu High School have even surpassed Shuchiin High School and Advanced Nurturing School!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Hao roughly understood Hiratsuka Shizuka's purpose.

He looked at the beautiful female teacher with amusement, without saying a word.

Shuchiin High School is a private high school jointly established by top local conglomerates in Japan.

It is the top high school in Japan!

The background of [Highly Cultivated] is also quite impressive.

It is a higher education institution run by long-established families and conglomerates in Japan.

These two schools have consistently been ranked first and second among high schools in Japan.

Zongwu High School is just an ordinary public high school.

They are nowhere near as good as these two schools, which are backed by large conglomerates.

Normally, Zongwu High School is always overshadowed by the other two schools.

When Hiratsuka Shizuka saw Bai Hao's gaze, a hint of shame appeared on her face.

But I still gritted my teeth and continued.

"The school wants to use Liuwei's name to help with publicity."

Bai Hao chuckled softly.

"Don't worry, Teacher Jing..."

Hearing Bai Hao draw out the sound,

Hiratsuka Shizuka's heart skipped a beat, and she instinctively clenched her fists.

"I will not agree."

"Vulpix isn't a Pokémon issued by the school, so I would never use Vulpix for fraudulent advertising."

"The school's publicity department can continue editing Liuwei's competition videos to generate buzz for the school."

"But I will absolutely not bring Liuwei along to cooperate with the school in recruitment promotion!"

Bai Hao stated his position, then changed the subject.

"I can cooperate in filming a promotional video if you want."

"The froglets are the little sprites that the school gave out."

"I use it to play a game or shoot a video, which is my way of doing my part."

Bai Hao's first Pokémon was a froglet given out by the school.

He gained a lot of benefits from the froglets.

Reciprocate kindness

He was happy to do something for the school.

In his view, cooperating with the school on publicity was not a big deal.

As long as it's not done under the guise of the Six-Tails, he's certainly willing to help.

Cooperation is cooperation.

It's a scam.

Bai Hao has an extremely flexible bottom line at times.

But in some places, they can be exceptionally meticulous!

He glanced at Hiratsuka Shizuka, who seemed much more relaxed, and poured her a glass of water.

"Based on my understanding of teachers, they wouldn't do such a thing."

"Is this the intention of the school's higher-ups?"

Seeing that Shiraho had spoken frankly, Hiratsuka Shizuka felt completely at ease.

She let out a long sigh of relief, her expression returning to its usual forthrightness.

Raise your glass and drink it all in one gulp.

"what!"

"I knew I couldn't hide it from you, kid!"

Just as Hiratsuka Shizuka was about to take a cigarette out of her pocket, she saw Bai Hao's gaze and put it back.

"When the school leaders saw that your six-tailed fox was very popular online, they had a sudden idea to use it for publicity."

"These guys are really idiots!"

"Anyone with a discerning eye can see how precious this exotic elf is!"

Even if you think about it with your toes,

"The League would never put such a precious Pokémon into the [Beginner Pokémon Pool]!"

"Even if the alliance agrees, those powerful families will still have their own ideas!"

After Bai Hao brought things up, Hiratsuka Shizuka completely opened up.

"What's the point of all this fancy propaganda?!"

"Students and parents aren't stupid!"

"【Shuchiin】and 【Advanced Training】are both ranked higher than 【Soubu High】."

“Shuchiin can get twenty to thirty starter Pokémon from the League every year.”

(Shuchiin is the school of "Kaguya-sama: Love Is War," and it's positioned as a super-elite school.)

"Plus the elves donated by [renowned alumni],"

"The number of the starter Pokémon can reach over a hundred!"

"[Highly trained] can distribute eight or nine [Starter Pokémon] each year,"

(Advanced Education is a school with a "meritocracy classroom" system; Class A has 30 students.)

"With alumni donations included, the total can reach thirty!"

"The [General Martial Arts Academy] is simply no match for it!"

"Are all those students idiots?!"
