Chapter 195 Starting by Bribing the Teacher

"Ring~ Ring~ Ring"

A series of pleasant sounds rang out, marking the start of the second competition.

However, Xuan Mingtian wasn't really interested in this aspect. Because in normal training or battles, unless it was truly necessary for him to intervene, the elves would handle everything themselves.

Therefore, the referees really need to give the rest of the afternoon's Pokémon training and command coordination a break.

"Brother Tian, ​​why do you look so listless? You're even walking around in a daze. Did you do something wrong? Don't worry, I definitely won't tell Auntie."

As the school bell rang, among the five walking together, Yang Bin was the first to notice Xuan Mingtian's unusual behavior, hence his earlier questioning. This also demonstrated his concern for the former—purely concern for his boss.

"Oh, no. I was just thinking about how to bribe the judges to let me off easy in the second event, because I think that event is a bit boring."

At this moment, Xuan Mingtian had no choice but to speak his mind, thankfully surrounded by his own people. Otherwise, if the trainer school students overheard, it might cause a riot.

These words left everyone present speechless. We've seen lazy people before, but never one who tries to slack off even during a competition. Truly, he's something else!

"Uh, Xiaotian, you absolutely mustn't have such thoughts. After all, this is a competition. Even if the referees aren't teachers from your own academy, don't have such ideas, because they are all referees certified by the league. If they are caught cheating, their refereeing qualifications will be revoked."

Xiao Gang, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but speak up, hoping to dispel the other person's unrealistic idea.

"Ugh, I really don't want to participate in this competition. Oh, right, I suddenly know how to bribe the teacher. Everyone gather around, let's do this and that..."

As the five plotted their scheme, they unknowingly arrived at the training ground. Fortunately, thanks to Xuanwu Ye's reminder, they kept quiet as they entered, since cheating was hardly something to be proud of.

Their plot involved slipping the referee a small gift while greeting him. However, they also made Xuan Mingtian promise to participate in the competition with his full effort.

A moment later, the referee finally came onto the field. Just as he was about to speak, he saw a figure walking casually toward him.

Don't overthink it, this figure is our Xuan Mingtian.

"Haha, hello referee. I didn't expect you to be our referee again, what a coincidence!"

While Xuan Mingtian was speaking, he had his arms wrapped around the referee. During this time, one of the bracelets slipped into his pocket unnoticed. The whole thing happened so quickly that no one saw it.

However, the referee, who was directly involved, was fully aware of the situation. He wanted to immediately shout an order to stop it, but his eyes couldn't help glancing into his pocket.

"hiss……"

A collective gasp arose involuntarily, and was simultaneously transmitted to the ears of everyone present through the microphone.

"Xiao Tian, ​​you stepped on my foot. Get back here right now, the competition is about to start."

"Haha, referee, I'm so sorry. I guess I've gained weight because I've been eating and living well at the academy lately. I'll head back right away."

However, Xuan Mingtian's thoughts at this moment were: "Damn, it's lucky it's a referee from my own academy. If it were a referee from a trainer school, this plan might not even succeed. Haha, luckily I was quick-witted."

Similarly, the referee was thinking, "Wow, he really is the little tyrant of the academy. He's so generous with bribes, giving out a weighted bracelet directly. Not bad, in that case, I'll let him off the hook a bit."

"Welcome, fellow participants. We are now proceeding with the second event. Please release your starter Pokémon. This competition will test your training level with your Pokémon and your ability to command them."

This exercise consists of a 5-kilometer weighted run, followed by skill activation, and finally, restoring the Pokémon to health while fatigued. Now, students need to release their Pokémon and equip their weighted gear. We will begin immediately once everything is ready.

As soon as the referee finished speaking, Team Kato immediately released their Pokémon. They were then fitted with 10kg weighted equipment; of course, as trainers, they were no exception. This once again makes one marvel at the physical prowess of the people in the Pokémon world.

In less than 15 seconds, Kato's team had already donned their gear. However, Xuan Mingtian's team remained completely still, drawing everyone's attention once again.

"Xuan, why isn't your team equipped yet?"

Faced with the referee's question, Xuan Mingtian had no choice but to let Xiao Gang and the others remove the weighted bracelets from the elves and themselves. This scene, with its synchronized movements, was immediately imprinted in everyone's eyes.

This made the Kato team's eyes widen like gongs. "Damn it!" they thought. "The entire team, including the Pokémon, are wearing weighted bracelets. Even they only wear them during training. How are they supposed to play like this?"

……

"Principal Guo, I never expected that your first-year students could manage so much pocket money. I'm truly impressed."

At this moment, Principal Fuji couldn't help but complain, because he had learned from the morning that the child leading the team was none other than the infamous young master of the Xuan family. This made him feel utterly hopeless, not to mention the other party's wealth. Just his strength alone already crushed all his peers at the trainer academy.

So after lunch, he also warned Kato and the others: If things really don't work out, just admit defeat and don't be afraid of losing face.

Unfortunately, the Kato Sculpture team completely ignored the thoughts of their peers, driven by their unwillingness to admit defeat. They treated their principal's words as utter nonsense.

Returning our attention to the training ground, Xuan Mingtian and his group had already overtaken Kato Diao's team by two or three laps.

There was no other way; after removing the weighted bracelets, even with 10kg of weighted gear, Xuan Mingtian and his group could move with incredible speed. Even Little Fist Stone, who could only hop around, could easily leap 5-6 meters in a single bound.

This isn't a competition at all, it's fucking ridiculous. The entire Kato team was just there for show. I originally thought that setbacks would create pressure and motivate the Pokémon.

But seeing Xuanmingtian's team and their Pokémon moving at lightning speed, without even breaking a sweat, it was a devastating blow. So devastating that even Kato's team became lifeless.
