Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

The principal and other school leaders on the rostrum not far away were also watching the game closely, and the hyperactive ape's performance naturally attracted their attention.

Principal Zhao Qi, who had just spoken on stage, also asked a question to the teacher from the combat department.

"Yes, the Hyperactive Apex trainer is quite good among this year's new Battle-type trainers," the Battle-type teacher replied truthfully.

"His opponent must also be a combat-type, right? He seems pretty strong too."

Zhao Qi casually mentioned it, and the combat department teacher on the side replied somewhat awkwardly:

"Uh, that student doesn't seem to be from our combat department."

"what?"

Zhao Qi looked somewhat bewildered and replied, "Not a combat type? Then how did he end up standing here?"

Although this competition is open to all freshmen, most of the participants, whether they are registered or have won awards, are actually students from the combat department.

So in a sense, this can also be considered an internal war within the combat system.

So this means... there's a traitor among us?

Lin Xuan never expected that her appearance would stun the principal on the stage, who quickly directed Xiao Dian to dodge the ape's freezing punch.

Although Hyperactive Ape's strength is far from comparable to Slaking's, it's still quite good. It's also a form of restraint, so taking that hit wouldn't be pleasant.

So Little Dot started circling around the hyperactive ape, who swung its fists for a long time but couldn't hit anything.

And the little dot couldn't just fly around aimlessly; it would occasionally emit two electric shocks. Although it was a moving target and was flying itself, and its accuracy wasn't great, even a blind cat could catch a dead mouse.

Besides, the little guy isn't blind. After hitting him a few times, he'll inevitably get a couple of electric shocks. Those two shocks were enough to make the hyperactive ape grimace.

If Slaking and Hyperactive Sarutobi have any weaknesses, it's probably that their Special Defense is relatively low.

The hyperactive ape's fur instantly turned black from the electric shocks it received. Being an impatient person, it felt an urge to go berserk. Meanwhile, Su Qi was also extremely annoyed by the incident.

"Do you have the guts to fight me head-on?"

Su Qi gritted her teeth and said to Lin Xuan, but Lin Xuan just pursed her lips.

"I wouldn't dare!"

He's not stupid. What kind of physique do you have, my little one? Why don't you let Tyson fight me? I guarantee I'll beat him to a pulp and make him beg me not to die.

Lin Xuan naturally wanted to make full use of Xiaodian's speed advantage.

While Hyperactive Slaking's hyperactivity and belligerence are an advantage over Slaking, sometimes being too hyperactive isn't a good thing, especially when combined with its Energize ability, which makes Hyperactive Slaking quite irritable.

With such a volatile temper, coupled with being teased by Xiao Dian for so long, his anger level was instantly maxed out.

Moreover, Xiao Dian wasn't just flying around; perhaps because she had spent so much time with Lin Xuan, she would occasionally stop and make a face, which made Su Qi's face gradually darken. Even Lin Xuan herself couldn't stand it anymore.

When did Xiaodian become so cunning?

Although the answer was obvious, Lin Xuan clearly didn't want to admit that it was related to her.

It's all Xiaodian's fault! (I'm sure of it!)

Enraged by Little Spot's actions, Hyperactive Ape went berserk, recklessly swinging its fists and charging towards Little Spot. Su Qi, as a trainer, naturally understood that such an action was far too impulsive.

"Hyperactive monkey! Stop right now!"

But it was clear that even his words as a trainer were no longer very effective at this point.

"Back around!"

Lin Xuan seized the opportunity and had Xiao Dian flash behind the hyperactive ape. The hyperactive ape wanted to turn around and knock Xiao Dian down with a punch.

However, he is no match for Xiaodian in terms of agility. Xiaodian directly rubbed his cheek against the hyperactive ape from behind.

As a result, the hyperactive ape, which was already being toyed with by Little Dot, lost its ability to resist even more. Little Dot, who had gotten close, naturally did not let this opportunity pass and directly used an electric shock to finish off the hyperactive ape.

"Holy crap, this guy is pretty good. I remember Su Qi was really good at ADHD."

"I battled him during training before, and my Pidgeotto was defeated in just a few moves. Which class was that guy in? I don't seem to remember him?"

"This person isn't in our class, and I don't think they're from the neighboring Class 5 either."

Several combat students in the audience huddled together and discussed it, then discovered some news that left them bewildered.

This ruthless person who defeated Su Qi doesn't seem to be from their combat style?

"It seems to be from the neighboring evolutionary type; I'm sure I'm not mistaken."

Just as the group was discussing, a girl from the combat department spoke up.

"An evolutionary type? No way, how did you know?"

"You still care about this?"

The group all looked at the girl, who rolled her eyes at them.

"Of course, he's a handsome guy. I think some senior students even did a survey, and his looks are definitely in the top three among the freshmen."

Everyone...

As for the school leaders on the stage, especially the teacher from the combat department, they all fell into a mysterious silence. They had just said that their students were very strong, but they were slapped in the face, and it hurt like hell.

"Teacher Zhang, you're saying this is from your evolutionary system?"

Zhao Qi asked another teacher on his right, who looked younger.

"Haha, you flatter me. This student does indeed seem to be from our Evolution Department."

Teacher Zhang was grinning from ear to ear. He was usually quite resistant to these kinds of competitions, and he wouldn't have come if the principal hadn't asked him to.

After all, everyone knows the situation in his own department. In previous competitions, he couldn't find a single Evolutionary type student even after searching for a long time, and he had to watch the Combat type teachers showing off, which made him very unhappy.

However, this should be one of the few times when the combat type can suppress the evolution type, since this is still a school that focuses on academic research.

But this still annoyed him, and he could only mutter to himself, "Let them be arrogant for a while!"

Now that Lin Xuan has stepped forward and defeated a very strong student from the combat department, he naturally feels proud and even the air he breathes feels more refreshing.

"Is this electric flying squirrel his Pokémon?"

Some people have raised this question, since there have been cases of people using someone else's Pokémon to participate in competitions. Therefore, the official system has a very comprehensive judgment mechanism to determine whether your Pokémon is eligible to participate in various competitions.

As soon as the teacher said that, Teacher Zhang frowned and objected. What did he mean by "not his Pokémon"? Did he look down on students of the Evolutionary type?

"The registration data has all been verified with the Pokémon Center. How could there be any error?"

"Ahem, I was just saying it offhand, don't mind it." The teacher who had just asked the question realized he had misspoke and quickly coughed awkwardly twice.

The principal, seeing this, smiled and came over to smooth things over.

"In short, it's a good thing to see students from other departments at the freshman competition."

As for Lin Xuan, after the hyperactive ape was defeated, Su Qi had no choice but to recall him.

He knew that Hyperactive Ape had a rather volatile temper, but he hadn't taken it seriously before. After all, the opponents he had faced in training sessions had almost all been head-on battles with him. How could they play like this?

In the two matches that followed today, the opponents were actually weaker than Scyther and Hyperactive Ape, leaving Lin Xuan speechless. He didn't know whether to call it good luck or bad luck.

To put it mildly, both wins were very easy; to put it mildly, it was just luck that we encountered strong opponents so early on…

Lin Xuan returned home in the evening and started her live stream after a long time. She hadn't been able to go live for the past few days because she was too busy, and her fan group had been in an uproar.

They're all shouting in the group like they're about to carry out a great rebellion, but they've only been gone for a few days.

After giving Xiaodian a quick look at the opponents she'll face tomorrow, the first one is a Pelipper. Without even looking, it's obvious that Xiaodian has a natural advantage. I bet the Pelipper's face will turn dark when it sees that its opponent is an Electric-type Pokémon.

The worst situation Lin Xuan could imagine was Parasect facing Charizard; it was truly a miserable scenario.

As for the opponents to come, they haven't been completely decided yet, so Lin Xuan decided to go and investigate on-site tomorrow. Let's satisfy the hungry audience for now.

Sure enough, as soon as Lin Xuan opened the live stream and announced the start of the broadcast in the group chat, the live stream chat started flooded with comments.

Who are you?

Holy crap, you actually came back?

Grandpa, the streamer you follow has started broadcasting!

"Ahem, I've been quite busy these past few days, so I took a few days off. If all goes well, I'll be back live next week to make up for the time I missed."

Lin Xuan opened the takeout container in her hand and said to the viewers in the live stream.

"Thanks to Banbanbanbanbankiras for the SC -- [So, what about the next analysis video?] It's in progress, and it should be out tomorrow if nothing unexpected happens."

[Oh no, given how badly Professor Mimi Qiu's predictions are made, I feel like something unexpected is bound to happen.]

【plus one】

[It seems we won't be able to see the video tomorrow.]

Lin Xuan's face darkened immediately. He said that "unsurprisingly" was just a euphemism; the video was already 90% complete.

Also, why do you all think something bad will definitely happen just because I said nothing unexpected will happen?

"Thanks to 'Bo Sha Bu Bo Bo Bo' for the SC." Lin Xuan squinted at the screen; these days, you can't even read a comment without knowing a few tongue twisters. "[What's playing tonight?]"

【Ha ha ha ha】

[The riddle-like hill rarely suffers a setback]

What kind of weird nickname is this?

It's just that Sylveon hasn't been discovered yet, otherwise Lin Xuan thinks this nickname could have been longer.
