Shang Qiu did not refuse; she considered it her due.

"And these things are gifts I'm giving to Frog Frog."

Shang Qiu was about to refuse when he suddenly saw what Chu Mengyao was holding, and immediately swallowed his words of refusal.

Simply put, it's incredibly valuable!

Shang Qiu didn't want to be favored by a rich woman... but the rich woman's favor was just too tempting!

Chapter 18: You Spent My Money, You Become My Blade

Back home, Shang Qiu examined Chu Mengyao's gift: a wilderness tent, a wilderness tent worth hundreds of thousands of yuan.

Made entirely of a hard Z alloy, this tent, once set up, can withstand the attack of a Gym Leader-level Pokémon.

With this tent, Shangqiu can avoid mosquito bites when he is in the wild, and he doesn't have to take turns keeping watch with Gible and Froakie to prevent being ambushed.

Someone once angered a super vengeful little finches, and then while sleeping, the finches rode on their noses and pooped on them.

Could this happen if he had a Z-alloy tent?

While Shang Qiu was studying the tent, Gible and Froakie were still playing around nearby. The two little guys had been cooped up in their Poké Balls for a long time on their way home.

"Roar!"

The Gible leaned against the corner of the wall, occasionally plucking a handful of foam from the Bubble Frog and adding it to its gourd before taking a delicious sip.

The croaking frog seemed a little uncomfortable and twisted its body.

"Cuck!"

Stop exploiting me!

The Gible obediently stopped its actions and ceased plucking the Bubble Frog's bubbles.

After a while, Gible had a sudden inspiration and seemed to have thought of something. It picked up the gourd and handed it to the mouth of the Froakie.

"Roar!"

Frog, you should try it, it's delicious!

The adorable frog took a lick and frowned.

"Ho, ho ho!"

Frog, drink it in big gulps for the best taste!

Gible hugged Froakie's neck and quickly poured the liquor in.

After taking a big bite, the frog's pale blue body turned crimson, and the whole frog became dizzy.

"Ah-"

It doesn't taste good, Shark!

The Gible succeeded in its scheme, leaving the dizzy Froakie beside it and recklessly plucking Froakie's bubbles until it was bald.

After taking a satisfying sip of the frothy drink, the Gible let out a contented cry.

It's cool and refreshing, and feels so comfortable.

The little brother the master took in is amazing!

......

When her parents returned home, Shang Qiu told them about her plan to go out for an interview.

Shang Qiu's plan to leave this time was too long to keep secret.

When Shang Qiu mentioned his plan to go out for trials, Shang's father frowned.

"Xiao Qiu, you've decided to become a trainer, haven't you?"

Shang Qiu nodded.

"Yes, Dad, I plan to become a trainer."

"Sigh—" Shang's father sighed.

“You know our family situation. Dad is a burden to you and your mother. I can’t afford to pay your tuition so you can go to the dojo to study.”

"You mean you're planning to go out for trials in the wilderness? That's too dangerous."

Not all wild creatures are friendly to humans, nor are they as harmless as they are portrayed in anime.

Moreover, humans are more dangerous than elves!

In the eyes of Shang's parents, Shang Qiu was just an inexperienced teenager.

If you don't get any treasure, that's fine. But if you do get a valuable treasure in the wild, you'll probably be eaten alive, with not even bones left!

"No problem, Mom and Dad. I can do it, and I'm not fighting alone."

"Look, I have two more companions!"

After saying that, Shang Qiu brought out the Gible and Froakie that were sleeping in the room.

"I'll be with the two of them, and I won't go to any dangerous places. I just plan to walk around the outskirts of the scenic area."

Upon seeing the croaking frog, Shang's mother covered her mouth in surprise.

"Xiao Qiu, you've gotten another elf?"

"Yes." Shang Qiu had already prepared his answer and showed his mother the black card from the Growlithe Dog Breeding House.

"I helped the manager of the Growlithe Breeding Center improve the strength of my Pokémon, and in return, the manager let me choose one of the starter Pokémon."

The experiences of the past few days have been too bizarre; telling them all would only cause my parents unnecessary worry.

Moreover, in the parents' eyes, the manager of the Growlithe breeding center was already a big shot.

They could rest assured that their son had gained the favor of important figures.

Sure enough, Shang Qiu's parents were relieved after hearing his explanation.

"My Xiao Qiu has really made something of herself. She's even earned the respect of the breeding center manager. It seems you're a natural-born trainer."

"We agree to let you go out, but don't forget to call often, and be careful while you're out alone..."

After dealing with his parents, Shang Qiu searched online for suitable adventure locations and appropriate training methods for the Froggy Frog.

Open Douyin (TikTok) and search for "Guagua Paofa" (呱呱泡蛙).

However, almost all the search results were for the common Froakie with the Turbulent ability.

Shang Qiu understands this, as content creators also need to make a living.

If you've put a lot of effort into making videos, you should naturally make videos that have a wider audience.

The Froggy Frog with the "Transformable" trait is already rare, and even fewer people would choose to watch videos to learn how to breed it.

You can get the priceless hidden trait Froggy Frog, but you can't find a teacher who can earn thousands of dollars a day?

Sorry, I really can't find it...

After browsing for a while, Shang Qiu had a sudden inspiration and decided to ask a professional.

Open your contacts and find Empty City.

The number one Greninja trainer in China, why not ask him!

A few moments later, several extremely large files were sent to my phone.

The Complete Guide to Raising the Frog

On the Limit of the Dual-Sword Greninja

The Possibility of Greninja with Hidden Abilities Taking on Higher-Level Players Without Taking Damage

Bond Transformation: From Beginner to Expert

The first thing I clicked on was the complete guide to animal husbandry, which contained a series of videos.

The knowledge inside was far more complex than Shang Qiu had imagined. The whole book could be summarized as a recipe and fighting techniques.

Although Froakie is a single Water type, its [Changeable] ability means that it can often change into other types.

This means that Shangqiu's croaking frog needs to replenish all its energy.

Furthermore, the Froggy Frog cannot replenish its energy using ordinary energy blocks; it cannot absorb eighteen energy blocks a day at all.

Fortunately, there is a type of elf food called canned berries, and its attributes can be freely customized.

Shang Qiu opened the online store of Growlithe Dog Breeding House and searched for tree fruit canned food.

By inputting the names of eighteen kinds of tree fruits, including berries, fruit, and dried fruit, Shang Qiu received a price that was utterly disheartening.

Each can costs 10,000 yuan, and you eat one can every day!

Even with a 30% discount, each can still cost 7000 yuan.

Looking at the soundly sleeping Frog, Shang Qiu suddenly had an urge to return it...

Shaking my head, I placed the order directly. Joking aside, I couldn't abandon my own pet.

At worst, let him learn the fighting techniques himself, and then let him teach Gible.

In short, money should be spent wisely.

To put it another way, you've spent my money, so you'll become my blade!

The sleeping Froakie suddenly sneezed, spraying its entire body into the mouth of the Gible...

Shang Qiu covered the two little ones with blankets and searched for recent news about major tourist attractions, trying to figure out where would be a good place for them to go during this period.

Shocking! The waters of Qiandao Lake turned red, and it was all because of this.

This is shocking news...

Zhangjiajie: The Untold Secrets of Wild Men and Elves.

This is news from a chat tool...

Suddenly, a message popped up on Toutiao that caught Shang Qiu's attention.

Recently, a mysterious humanoid spirit has been spotted in the Hutuo River Secret Realm!
