I just want to give the elves a home. What's wrong with that?

It would have been fine if he hadn't looked at it, but once he did, Li Ran's heart started beating uncontrollably.

The girl in front of me is so close!

She looked like a princess from a comic book world, about 1.7 meters tall, with long black hair hanging down, a round face that looked as delicate as a baby's, and a pair of big watery eyes that were like black pearls inlaid with diamonds, which matched the matcha-colored dress she was wearing.

She was looking at Li Ran with curiosity.

"Cough cough."

It was also the first time that Hong Pang saw Li Ran like this, and he gave him a friendly reminder.

"Ah...it's me."

Li Ran's expression remained unchanged. He took a step back and spoke in a pretentiously cold manner.

Only Hong Pang was laughing secretly. No one really thought that there were cool boys in this world. Often he was not cool, but he just didn't know how to talk to girls.

At this moment, he felt like he had transformed into a master of emotions, silently analyzing in his mind.

"I'm your fan! Can you please sign an autograph for me?"

Only then did Li Ran realize that the girl was holding a notebook in her arms. After hesitating, he nodded.

"That's great! Just sign here!"

The girl opened the notebook and looked exactly like a little fangirl. This made Li Ran a little dazed that there would actually be such a day.

"By the way, what's your name? Let me write a sentence."

"My name is Su Qingmo! Su of Xuansu, Qing of Qingcheng, and Mo of Xiangruyimo!"

"Okay, are you here to take the Elite Trainer Assessment?"

After getting affirmation, Li Ran wrote down a paragraph on the paper.

Li Ran wished Su Qingmo success in becoming an elite trainer.

"Thank you! Li Ran, are you here to take the test as well?"

After hearing this, Li Ran's face turned slightly red. Seeing Hong Pang teasing him, he had no choice but to nod.

This made Miss Su Qingmo leave satisfied.

"You are really good, you are a real person. I have learned this method of asking for a girl's name."

Hong Pang then spoke slowly and gave him a meaningful look.

"Uh... that's about right. You should learn from me."

Li Ran was stunned for a moment, but still looked up and said like an experienced driver that he would never say that he wrote a paragraph in order not to fall into a trap.

Write your name on a piece of white paper, in case you get tricked one day and lose money, you might even lose your life.

"Keep working hard! I'm very optimistic about this girl!"

Hong Pang put his hand on Li Ran's shoulder and spoke earnestly. Looking at Su Qingmo's age, she was only two or three years younger than Li Ran. The two of them were quite a good match.

"Contestant No. 1567 Hong Pang, please go to room 13."

As the broadcast sounded, Li Ran kindly sent him off with his feet, but he didn't dare to stay here. Even a beautiful girl couldn't make him change his mind.

Room 13.

"Hong Pang, right?"

Looking over there, there was a man in a white robe sitting in front of an instrument.

Under his guidance, Hong Pang slowly sat down opposite him. Hong Pang felt strange. Why did this process seem familiar? He wondered if he would ask himself questions in the next second.

"How are your eating habits lately?"

What the hell is going on? Hong Pang noticed that the person opposite him was actually staring at his physical examination report while talking, and suddenly countless black lines appeared in his head.

"Well, I'm here to take the elite trainer assessment..."

"Oh, sorry, my occupational disease has come on. According to your information, you have captured three elves so far, right?"

Finally, everything was normal. In the following questions, the two of them asked and answered each other, and the assessment began quickly.

The elite-level assessment is mainly divided into two parts.

First, check the physical condition of the Pokémon, the quality of its training, and whether there are any signs of abuse on the Pokémon. Trainers of this type will directly pass it.

The second is the actual battle. The assessment center will send elite trainers to fight against them. The instruments outside are used to record the entire game to prevent cheating and other behaviors. Once passed, it will become the evidence and certificate of their entry into elite trainers.

Soon, Hong Pang passed the first level without a doubt. Given his family's conditions, how could he be bad to his own elves?

"Okay, come with me."

The man nodded. The space in the room was much larger than it looked from the outside. The training ground was surrounded by special materials to prevent energy leakage from causing unnecessary losses.

Hong Pang took a quick look and found that the space was more than enough for the elves to move around, but to be honest, it was not very friendly to flying elves. The distance between the ground and the ceiling was only about six or seven meters.

"Then let's start the competition. I will also bring out three elves to fight you. You will pass as long as you defeat two of mine."

The man immediately threw out his Poké Ball, and Hong Pang summoned his Money-Seeking Spirit.

The battle is about to break out.

......

Li Ran waited outside for a full hour before he saw Hong Pang looking very proud. Looking at his showy look, Li Ran knew it was a success.

"Look, this is my ID. Isn't it cool?"

Hong Pang shook the certificate in his hand and was very satisfied. A rookie trainer is considered to be one when he captures his first Pokémon. Only after he has truly passed the elite level can he have the proof of his identity, which is also a kind of affirmation of himself.

However, a large number of trainers usually get stuck at this level, as the first Pokémon almost directly blocks their path to becoming a lord-level trainer.

Because training a Pokémon requires a great deal of the trainer's energy and financial resources, but this is not a problem for Hong Pang, and reaching the lord level is almost a foregone conclusion.

"Okay, let me show you how impressive you are. How about we have a fight?"

Li Ran couldn't stand him being like this. As soon as Hong Pang opened his mouth, he surrendered. What a joke. How could he not know even if others didn't know?

He was able to pass the elite level thanks to Li Ran. If Li Ran hadn't bullied him every day, he wouldn't have been able to win the battle without even releasing the fruit-eating worms.

"Shall we go home now?"

Hong Pang glanced at the sky. The sun was hanging right in the middle of the sky. It was obviously time for dinner.

"Have a meal. I have to go to the Asakusa Research Institute in the afternoon."

Li Ran did not forget the agreement with Dr. Asakusa. He would be paid for this discovery, so he would not be careless.

"Okay, I'll treat you. I'll go with you. It's my first time there, so it's a good opportunity to have some fresh air."

Hong Pang was straightforward. He took Li Ran to a western restaurant for a meal. The food tasted good, but the only drawback was that Li Ran was not used to using the knife and fork. Finally, under everyone's surprised attention, he asked the waiter for a pair of chopsticks.
