Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

Kona helplessly adjusted her glasses and drooped her head. "Senior Xia Yan, it's because you weren't answering the phone that all the calls came to us."

Xia Yan suddenly realized.

He looked at Daigo.

He was talking on his phone, and it seemed to be his father, the president of Devon Corporation, Zvoich Mujin.

He looked at Cynthia.

She was the only one among them who seemed to be in relatively good spirits.

He slowly and methodically tore the bread into strips and stuffed them into his mouth.

Noticing Xia Yan's gaze, she smiled and said, "I answered a few calls and realized I couldn't stop, so I turned off my phone."

Xia Yan gave a thumbs up!

"Smart, as expected of Cynthia."

Look at them, and then look at you...

Ok.

Lance has a family, Lorelei has Silver Academy, and we won't even talk about Daigo. It seems that only Cynthia and Natsuhiko can remain uninvolved.

"Xia Yan, honestly, how confident are you about that paper? You've worked so hard to build up your reputation..."

At that moment, Daigo, who had hung up the phone and then tossed it into the sink next to him, spoke.

Xia Yan's lips twitched as he watched him toss the latest model phone into the sink without batting an eye.

However, he still said, "Ninety percent."

"So tall?!"

For Daigo, what's the difference between 90% and 100%?

"Then, Senior Xia Yan, this new attribute..." Kona also chose to shut down.

“Fairies, I call them the Fairy Series.” Xia Yan didn’t shy away from the topic.

“Fairy type…” Kona chewed on these words, seemingly lost in thought.

"In short, barring any unforeseen circumstances, you should be able to see this competition, which will serve as the best proof of my conjecture." Xia Yan finished his milk in one gulp.

really.

For breakfast, plain porridge with pickled vegetables is the best; milk and bread are too bland for Xia Yan.

"Xia Yan, is your research topic good enough to get a doctoral degree?"

"I'm eating bread," Cynthia suddenly said.

PhD?!

The group was startled, and their gazes fell on him again.

Xia Yan pressed his forehead.

"There's a chance, but it's quite difficult. Professor Oak said we can give it a try."

In other words, there really is a chance!

A PhD in Pokémon Studies who is not even twenty years old?

"I understand," Daigo said.

Then he stood up.

He pulled out a new phone from somewhere and made a call.

Wow... you carry so many new phones with you when you're out and about?

Wataru got up, patted Natsuhiko on the shoulder, and went outside to make a phone call.

at the same time.

Cynthia and Kona both turn on their phones at the same time.

Xia Yan looked at the empty dining table.

But I felt a little warm inside.

he knows.

My friends have gone out to unleash their potential.

Since Xia Yan's research results are almost 100% certain, and there is indeed a certain chance of obtaining a "doctoral" degree through this research.

Of course, they want to exert their influence.

Even if they don't know how much energy they can unleash.

The Dragon Tamer clan, though usually low-key, wields considerable influence.

Let's not even talk about the Silver Academy, where Kona belongs.

The initial research talents of the alliance almost all came from here.

As one of the next generation's leading "academics" in the field, Cora has a good relationship with many mentors and professors in the academy, and her voice will have a significant impact.

Not to mention Daigo's German company.

Devon and Silver are now known as the two giant companies in the alliance, with businesses covering almost all regions, and their influence is far beyond Xia Yan's estimation.

As for Cynthia...

Let's not talk about anything else.

Just look at Cynthia's fans, they are a terrifying number.

All the titles Xia Yan has acquired so far, his number of fans is probably only about equal to that of Cynthia.

Being good-looking, coupled with outstanding abilities and a remarkable demeanor, is a significant advantage.

With the help of these friends, Xia Yan was definitely a huge asset.

While they were on the phone...

Xia Yan also turned on his phone.

I replied to each of the above messages.

"I will prove it in the game."

That's enough.

However, the phone rang again.

The caller ID displayed "Ethereum Foundation".

After a slight hesitation, Xia Yan pressed the answer button.

A gentle female voice came from the other end of the phone, "Is this Mr. Xia Yan? Please wait a moment, I will transfer you to the chairman right away."

obviously.

In order to contact Xia Yan, Lusamine exaggeratedly had the Ether Foundation's information department call him continuously.

Once the call connected, it was immediately transferred to Lusamine.

"Xia Yan?"

“Chairwoman Lusamine, it’s me.” Xia Yan pressed his nose.

"I've read your paper. Judging from its current impact, are you aiming for a PhD?"

Rosamina was quick to grasp the key to it.

Don't underestimate a strong woman's intuition.

To be fair...

If an eighteenth attribute were to appear, its impact on the League and even the entire Pokémon world would be enough to make an excellent researcher a professor.

The key point is Xia Yan's age.

Not yet twenty years old.

That's definitely a bit of an exaggeration.

"The teacher asked me to give it a try," Xia Yan said frankly.

"I see."

Lusamine didn't waste any more words.

If Xia Yan becomes a PhD, the likelihood of him joining the Ether Foundation will become very low.

But Rosamune has a long-term vision.

It was also her arrangement to make Gladio and Lillie Natsuhiko's students, while also respecting the wishes of the two children.

For the Ether Foundation, Xia Yan becoming a doctor is far more beneficial than harmful.

She also wants to leverage the influence of the Ether Foundation.

Put away your phone.
