"You must be dreaming! With that face of yours, how could you possibly draw a Dratini?"
Before Gu Xin could respond, Bai Qianqian snapped at Chu Kelian.
"What are you saying, Qianbao?" Chu Kelian was stunned for a moment, then immediately flared up.
You could insult her intelligence, but never her looks!
"What's wrong with my face? My face is gorgeous!"
"Heh heh~"
"You nasty woman, what do you mean by that?! If it weren't for the fact that I've always overshadowed you and felt bad for you, do you think you'd have stood a chance at becoming the campus belle?" Chu Kelian's voice immediately rose.
"That's hilarious! The schoolmates' votes were clear. I had a hundred more votes than you on the forum. How dare you even speak?"
Bai Qianqian crossed her arms and glared at Chu Kelian with a mocking gaze.
"Hah! And you don't know where those extra hundred votes came from, huh, you schemer?"
"What's wrong with me posting some stunning Hanfu selfies to pull votes?"
"I've had enough of you, you conniving b*tch!"
"So, you're trying to pick a fight today, huh?"
"Who wants to fight with who? Are you just sore about losing to me earlier?"
The two rich, beautiful college girls got louder and louder.
Even Pokémon like Larvitar and Vulpix were frightened and hid behind their respective trainers. Bai Qianqian's Squirtle and Chu Kelian's Charmander glared at each other as if unwilling to lose in terms of presence.
Lin Sheng: "…"
Chen Yun: "…"
Gu Xin: "…"
"These two juniors… are really close friends, huh."
Chen Yun wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling a bit awkward.
As the young master of one of Magic City's top financial conglomerates, Chen Yun had occasionally heard of Bai Qianqian and Chu Kelian, these two young heiresses.
Moreover, Chen Yun was an alumnus of Magic City's top university, making him their senior.
Previously, all he heard were their merits, but now…
"This is my first time witnessing women verbally sparring. How terrifying!"
Lin Sheng watched the two girls bicker with great interest.
Especially when the participants were such beautiful girls—it was even more fascinating!
"Quarreling between close friends strengthens their bond. Let them be; they'll probably make up soon."
Gu Xin blinked and decided not to interfere. After all, it was their personal matter.
"By the way, Boss, let me cover the cost of repairing this area."
Chen Yun nodded in agreement and then glanced at the fractured and uneven battlefield, apologizing to Gu Xin.
"Huh? There's no need. It's actually very simple."
Gu Xin was momentarily surprised but then waved it off with a smile.
Chen Yun was puzzled.
"Diancie, use Earth Power."
Diancie, still holding the camera, let out a soft hum and raised an arm toward the battlefield.
"Damn!"
Under the stunned gazes of Chen Yun and Lin Sheng, the battlefield surface seemed to come alive. Waves of mud rippled like the gentle lapping of the sea.
Guided by Earth Power, the once-damaged ground was smoothed out in the blink of an eye.
In just a few breaths, the ground was perfectly flat and clean, as if freshly renovated!
"This…"
Even Chen Yun was dumbfounded, as though he had seen a ghost.
Chu Kelian and Bai Qianqian, who had somehow stopped their "discussion," were also shocked by the battlefield's transformation.
"Earth Power is a special Ground-type move that uses the earth's energy to attack opponents. It's also quite powerful," Gu Xin explained calmly.
"But with a little control, it can easily achieve this."
For Diancie, manipulating a small area of ground like this was a trivial task, even though it wasn't a Ground-type Pokémon.
"This is insane!" Chu Kelian exclaimed adorably, still marveling at the rippling waves of mud.
But judging from Diancie's casual demeanor, it was clear this was just a simple effort for it.
Bai Qianqian nodded emphatically in agreement. "It's so powerful!"
"Absolutely incredible! I've truly brned my horizons today."
After a long moment, Chen Yun took a deep breath and sighed in amazement.
What sheer absurdity!
And yet, after experiencing it, it all felt so natural.
After all, didn't his Larvitar already control rocks?
"Boss, I know this might not be my place as a customer, but perhaps you should report this to the authorities," Chen Yun said after some thought, lowering his voice.
"Your Pokémon are simply too miraculous. If you could gain official support, I think your business would grow more smoothly. And… you could also prepare in advance."
Chen Yun's words carried a hint of caution.
Gu Xin understood what he meant and nodded in response.
Chen Yun was referring to the state, that behemoth of an institution. Gu Xin also knew that contact with the state was inevitable.
After all, with the system upgrade, Pokémon had begun appearing across Magic City. For these completely new, "magical" creatures with elemental abilities, how would the state react?
Even with the system's "obfuscation" effect, the sudden emergence of so many Pokémon in one area would surely prompt an immediate response from the authorities to control the situation before discussions could even begin.
Thus, even before the system upgrade, Gu Xin had prepared to contact the authorities and give them a heads-up.
"If you need assistance, I could ask my father to arrange a meeting with the Magic City Party Secretary," Chen Yun offered after some consideration.
He had thought a lot about this and realized that Gu Xin was definitely not an ordinary person.
Moreover, he believed that if Pokémon could be popularized, it might have a profound impact on society.
In fact, Chen Yun saw this as a positive development!
Take Diancie's use of Earth Power to repair the battlefield, for example—so convenient and safe!
If Pokémon powers could be integrated into society, it would bring about revolutionary changes!
"If I need help, I'll be sure to contact you, Mr. Chen," Gu Xin replied with a raised eyebrow.
Wow, arranging a meeting with the Party Secretary? Chen Yun's connections were indeed impressive.
However, it wasn't urgent yet. Gu Xin planned to focus on maximizing system upgrades first. He didn't want to deal with anything unrelated to the Pokémon industry's development unless absolutely necessary.
That said, some matters couldn't be avoided. A sudden influx of Pokémon could easily incite public panic and backlash.
After all, if one's daily life and worldview were suddenly disrupted by a bunch of "monsters" with elemental powers, who wouldn't be scared?
The authorities might even deploy armed forces to suppress them.
That was the last thing Gu Xin wanted to see.
"I trust you have your own considerations, Boss. In that case, I'll ask something else," Chen Yun said with a smile after a brief pause.
"Go ahead, Mr. Chen," Gu Xin replied with a smile.
"Uh…"
Chen Yun hesitated and glanced at his Larvitar.
"Can my Larvitar learn that Earth Power move Diancie just used?"
Damn! Earth Power was so cool! And the name was just as awesome! He absolutely loved it!
Gu Xin: "Emmm…"
