Pokémon Origins

Chapter 26: Standards of the Elven High School

"Son, why did you think of visiting the Elf Merchandise City in Tianhai City?" Zi Mu felt undoubtedly more relaxed as he carried the bag of merchandise that was only half full.

Shangguan Chuang, who was standing next to him, was carrying bags that Zi Mu had stuffed into his pockets. He followed Su Xier side by side with Zi Mu. He glanced at Su Xier with an ambiguous expression and said, "Your father and I moved out of our home and live nearby. But why are you here? Who is this girl?"

"You ran away from home? How come I didn't know? When?" Zi Mu looked at Shangguan Chuang in surprise and asked.

"It was just yesterday. My sister was admitted to Tianhai Intermediate Elf Academy. It was not convenient for my parents to come over, so they asked me to bring my sister out to live. I sent you a message yesterday, but you haven't replied to me yet." Shangguan Chuang moved his gaze from Su Xier to Zi Mu's face, with a hint of anger on his contemptuous face.

"Ah? I've been too busy these two days and I've run out of data, so I didn't receive any messages from the software. Why didn't you call me?" Zi Mu smiled awkwardly, put all the bags in his right hand on his left hand, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and turned on the overspent data with a painful look on his face.

"Drip~"

"Drip~"

......

Many messages from various apps popped up on the phone instantly. Zimu opened the frequently used social app "Pogaman". There was a chat box with the note "Chuang'er" and a small red dot behind it, which read 99+.

"My sister was admitted to Tianhai Intermediate Elf Academy. How is your school?"

"**?say."

"***"

......

"I'm going to Tianhai City with my sister tomorrow. Where are you? Come pick me up and help me find a house."

"Where the hell are you? Talk?"

"***"

......

"Emmm" Zi Mu felt a sudden chill on his back. Without looking at Shangguan Chuang's murderous eyes, he slowly typed on the phone screen: "I'm next to you."

"..."

"Ahem, Shangguan Qi actually got into Tianhai Intermediate Elf College. Look at you. If your academic performance was a little better, we could be in the same school."

"Alas, what can I do? I don't like studying, and the intermediate elf academy teaches the same thing. There is no difference." Shangguan Chuang shook his head helplessly, then smiled calmly and said, "Besides, the entrance exam to the advanced elf academy mainly depends on the elf affinity. My elf affinity is so high, how could no school accept me?"

Shangguan Chuang and Zimu both come from big families, Zimu is from the Zi family, and Shangguan Chuang is from the Shangguan family. The two met in a junior elf academy founded for nobles, and found that their situations were similar, and their personalities were very compatible, so they have been getting along until now.

Originally, Shangguan Chuang and Zi Mu had agreed to go to Tianhai City Intermediate Elf Academy together, but Shangguan Chuang's academic performance was too poor and his score could not meet the Tianhai Intermediate Elf Academy's admission score, so he had no choice but to go to Yanwei City Intermediate Elf Academy, a city adjacent to Tianhai City. However, the two cities were not far apart, so they had kept in touch for the past three years.

"That's right. Since you're in Tianhai City, why don't you join me in applying to Tianhai City's No. 1 Advanced Elf Academy? This is one of the best elf academies in the Naigrin region."

In this world, there are the Junior Elf Academy, the Intermediate Elf Academy and the Advanced Elf Academy. The Junior Elf Academy is a 6-year program, the Intermediate Elf Academy is a -year program, and the Advanced Elf Academy is only a short one year.

Both the Primary and Intermediate Pokémon Schools teach some common sense and basic Pokémon theory knowledge. Only in the third year of the Intermediate Pokémon School, when young trainers have reached adulthood, will the Alliance allow them to have their first officially certified Pokémon. It is also in the third year of the Intermediate Pokémon School that the gap between everyone is officially widened.

Only when a Pokémon trainer reaches adulthood and has his first Pokémon that truly belongs to him, will his Pokémon affinity increase from the initial Pokémon affinity. Before that, Pokémon affinity will not increase. Age and Pokémon are two indispensable conditions.

"I have no problem. My affinity with elves is already 20. I see that the average level of Tianhai City's No. 18 Senior College is only . If I work hard, I might be able to get into the top class. But you, have you solved your sequelae? There are only two months left before the admission test."

Shangguan Chuang naturally knew that Zi Mu's Pokémon affinity had stagnated at level 16 a year ago, and he always felt sorry for his "genius" brother. It was a pity that he had no way to save the genius that the Zi family had tried their best to save, and he, a mid-level Pokémon trainer, was even more helpless.

"It might have taken some effort, but now my talent has returned a little, so there's no need to worry too much." Although Shangguan Chuang hid it very well, due to years of getting along with each other, Zi Mu could still sense that although Shangguan Chuang seemed indifferent and even a little sarcastic on the surface, he was still very concerned about him in his heart.

"That's great. If nothing goes wrong, we should be in the same advanced elf academy." Shangguan Chuang looked away and walked on his own. After a moment, he turned back to look at Zi Mu, "Did you forget to answer a question for me?"

"What?" Zi Mu was stunned for a moment, thought about it, and blushed, "I just... met him on the road, just met him a few days ago, what's the matter?"

"Really?" Shangguan Chuang stared at Zi Mu suspiciously and continued to ask, "Then why do you two look so good together? You even accompanied her shopping and asked me to carry her bag!"

"......Let me tell you, it's still risky for us to apply for Tianhai City's No. 22 Senior College. We can't fall behind in Pokémon training. How is your Squirtle now? Has it evolved? Having a high Pokémon affinity alone is useless. The Pokémon level is also important. Su Xier's Pokémon affinity is already !"

"Huh? Is someone calling me?" Su Xier, who was walking in front, turned around, threw a prop in her hand into Zi Mu's bag, and asked.

"No...no, you continue buying." Zi Mu said guiltily. Now he didn't dare to disturb Su Xier's elegance.

......

"Hello, your total consumption is 58720 Elf Coins. Do you have a membership?"

"Ah, Zimu, do you have it?" Su Xier turned her head to look at Zimu and Shangguan Chuang who were panting, and asked in a low voice.

"Yes, yes." Zi Mu walked forward, took out his ID card and bank card, and handed them to the receptionist. "Just pay with my card."

"Okay, sir." The receptionist smiled faintly, and after a moment she returned the two cards to Zimu, and said, "After a 95% discount, your total purchase is 55784 Elf Coins. These are the space items for you and your girlfriend. I wish you a happy life!"
