Chapter 187 Regulations on Academic Exchange
Chapter 187 Regulations on Academic Exchange
A gentle morning breeze rustled through the air, casting a golden glow on the ground. The day had flown by; today marked another school-wide event for the college since the conclusion of the grade-level competition.
Because today is the day that Trainer Academy is coming for academic exchange, Indigo Academy has given its students a rare two-day holiday.
The principal probably wanted to use the students of the college to intimidate the opponent, but it seems that it was all in vain.
For some unknown reason, Xuan Mingtian got up very early today. This was very strange; it was completely contrary to his nickname of a sleepyhead.
Everyone in the small courtyard was stunned when they saw Xuan Mingtian appear.
At this moment, Yang Bin spoke first, saying, "Brother Tian, what's wrong with you today? Is your brain malfunctioning or did you go to bed too early last night?"
The two sudden questions left Xuan Mingtian completely bewildered. Was it really wrong to get up earlier? But he didn't realize that this was precisely what was wrong with him. Normally, if no one woke him up by 8:30, he could sleep until noon.
"What do you mean by this? Is it wrong for me to get up early? Besides, today is an academic exchange, so what's wrong with getting up early?"
Actually, in his dream, for some reason, the Duke of Zhou kept insisting on sparring with him, which annoyed Xuan Mingtian to no end. He had no choice but to agree to Zhou's request, but as a result, he was woken up by Zhou in less than two rounds. He was quite helpless.
When Xuan Mingtian uttered those words, everyone looked at him with disdain. They simply didn't believe his nonsense.
"Hey, hey, hey, don't look at me like that. Believe it or not, I just wanted to get up early today."
After speaking, Xuan Mingtian ignored everyone and went straight to the dining table, trying to get away from them as quickly as possible.
About half an hour later, Xuan Mingtian, unusually, led everyone to the classroom around 8:30. He had already prepared the Pokémon, since he didn't know how many Pokémon would be used for the exchange, so he brought all the Pokémon he had that were capable of fighting.
Even Xiao Gang, Yang Bin, and Chen Qianqian brought all the Pokémon they had with them.
However, since Chen Qianqian only has one Fire Fox and her Firebird hasn't hatched yet, she used two Bean Pigeons to fill in.
Upon arriving at the classroom, everyone discovered that their homeroom teacher was unusually well-prepared and waiting there early. This demonstrates the importance the college places on this academic exchange, especially for the first-year students.
"Hehe, Xiao Tian, I didn't expect you to arrive so early today. I thought you'd either arrive right on time or be a few minutes late, like before."
"Teacher, you underestimate my brother. He probably couldn't sleep today, which is why he came so early. Your imagination is too vivid; I have to criticize my brother a bit."
Haha, I never expected Xuan Mingtian's younger brother to be so drafty. He was practically wearing a tank top; it would be so cold to wear. At the same time, he didn't notice that his older brother's face had darkened.
"Hehe, they really are like dogs that will climb onto the roof and tear off the tiles if you don't discipline them for a day."
Then Xuan Mingtian used every trick in the book to show his younger brother the dignity of being the older brother. Of course, a beating was inevitable, and it was done in front of the homeroom teacher and classmates.
"Xiao Tian, stop hitting him. If this continues, your brother will become deformed."
At that moment, Xiao Gang's words struck Xuanwu Ye like a thunderbolt. "Listen to this! Is this really something a human being would say?"
Fortunately, the one-sided beating came and went quickly, and the homeroom teacher watched everything quietly. He couldn't get a word in edgewise since Xuan Mingtian was disciplining his younger brother. It certainly wasn't because he was the academy's new sugar daddy.
"Alright, now that the farce is over, let's talk about the rules for the next two days. First, those of you who weren't selected can study in the classroom or watch in the designated area. But watch your emotions, and if you really can't help it, don't go and mock the Trainer Academy. Of course, don't take this as me saying it."
"Secondly, as one of the five representatives from the first year, Xiaotian is also the team leader. I hope you can teach your opponents a lesson, and preferably make them all cry."
See? This is Xuan Mingtian's homeroom teacher. He actually sent this brilliant student to beat them up badly, even to the point of making them cry. But when these words reached Xuan Mingtian's ears, they sounded like a beautiful song.
"Don't worry, teacher, I'll definitely beat them all to a pulp. If they don't cry, I'll put them in sacks when they leave and then beat them hard."
Upon hearing this, a glint of light flashed in the homeroom teacher's eyes for some reason. It was as if this had struck a chord with him, but he quickly regained his composure.
“Xiao Tian, I’m glad you have this idea. But this approach is wrong. You need to know that this academic exchange is related to the reputation of the college. We absolutely cannot let people know that it’s the college’s students who are trying to take advantage of others. You understand that.”
As soon as he said this, the homeroom teacher winked at Xuan Mingtian. Of course, the other students present were also stunned. None of them expected their homeroom teacher to say such a thing.
"Hehe, teacher, you can rest assured about that. I'm quite skilled at making people cry, and I'm also good at putting them in sacks. That's definitely one of my strengths, so you can be sure they won't be able to see my face."
Seeing the two exchanging glances and engaging in such a frank conversation, Bai Ying finally couldn't hold back anymore. She hadn't expected her uncle to be this kind of person, and this Xuan Mingtian—what a talent for sack-tying!
However, Bai Ying still asked about the key points of the academic exchange: "Professor, you haven't told us about this academic exchange yet. What are some things we need to pay attention to and what are some things we need to do?"
"Right, right, I almost forgot. The first item is Pokémon identification and guessing, the second item is Pokémon training, and the third item is Pokémon battles. There are three events in total, and it will last for about two days."
"How many Pokémon are needed for first-year Pokémon battles? Or can only the starter Pokémon be used?"
See? He's definitely the class monitor. He got straight to the point, focusing on the students at the Trainer Academy. To be honest, their combat strength is slightly stronger than that of Indigo Academy students. First-year students can even have two Pokémon, and they concentrate on Pokémon training and battles.
"Ahem, well, that was my mistake. The rule for first graders is a maximum of two Pokémon and a minimum of one. One of them must be a starter Pokémon, and the others can be Pokémon you've already acquired. But I believe Xiaotian will handle all of this, and he'll do his best."
