Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

"Hmm, just a random name."

"They can pull off combos like that so easily... Are the newcomers these days really that strong?"

Wu Rui looked completely stunned, and then Zhong Wenxing appeared at just the right moment and patted him on the shoulder.

"I can attest that I am not. I am still a newbie."

After staring at Zhong Wenxing thoughtfully for a long time, Wu Rui nodded as if he had finally understood.

"really."

Zhong Wenxing: ...I was just trying to comfort you, why are you making personal attacks?

"Plasma energy ball? It's a combination of a plasma bath and an energy ball, right?" someone walked towards Lin Xuan. "But even with this combination, the power is still far too great, isn't it?"

Lin Xuan shrugged. He naturally dared not take credit for it, since he hadn't really been involved in Xiao Dian's training.

"It was all small effort; I didn't do anything special."

However, Lin Xuan did not expect that his honest statement would be seen as a sign of humility by everyone.

Little Dot: What are you all looking at him for! Look at me!

Some members of the Battle Club initially harbored some resentment towards Lin Xuan. After all, the members of the Battle Club were mostly Battle-type, and the sudden appearance of a strong Evolution-type freshman inevitably caused some resentment.

But after watching the battle just now, they all wanted to come up to Lin Xuan and say: Brother, I'm impressed. How did you do that?

Even if she were to actually ask, Lin Xuan would probably only be able to answer with "Eat more tree fruits and sleep more."

Just as everyone was about to come over and try to get closer to Lin Xuan, Cheng Yin suddenly called out to Lin Xuan as if she had suddenly remembered something.

"Come with me for a second, I need to talk to you." He then glared at the crowd. "What are you looking at? Go train yourselves!"

Although Lin Xuan didn't know the reason, he still followed. Xiao Dian flew back to his shoulder and yawned. Using the plasma energy ball earlier had made him feel a little tired.

"Is there a problem?"

"Actually, it's about the upcoming provincial competition. The teachers don't have your contact information, but they know you joined the gaming club, so they asked me to ask you about it."

Provincial competition?

Lin Xuan recalled that the principal did seem to have mentioned this matter in his pre-match speech, but he hadn't paid much attention to it.

However, since he had remembered it, he immediately prepared to refuse. After all, this kind of thing... how could it have anything to do with him, a freshman of the evolutionary system?

"Don't rush to refuse, let me finish." Cheng Yin seemed to have seen through Lin Xuan's thoughts and interrupted the spellcasting in advance. "The provincial competition will be held during the winter vacation, so it won't affect your normal studies."

Chapter 60 Try and die

"Is it going to be held during the winter break?" Lin Xuan asked in surprise. He had thought it would be something that happened around this time, but he didn't expect it to take so long.

"Do you never watch the news?" Cheng Yin rolled her eyes at Lin Xuan.

"Ahem, I don't really pay attention to that, please continue."

But while saying that, Lin Xuan was thinking: I've only been here for a short time, how could I possibly know everything?

Lin Xuan has only been in this world for a little over a month. She also needs to do live streaming and attend classes, so she doesn't have time to learn about these small competitions. If she wants to watch something, she should watch a large-scale competition like the China Championship.

"As a major provincial competition, the Fengsu Cup offers very substantial prize money!"

"How many?"

"Dandan?"

Lin Xuan and Xiao Dian's eyes lit up at the same time. They were wide awake when this topic came up.

Cheng Yin was startled by the difference between the person and the Pokémon before and after. Her lips twitched. She could only say that like trainer, like Pokémon...

"I remember the champion's prize money was a full million, and that's just the prize money. Generally, there are also some special rewards, such as Pokémon eggs or some items."

After recalling for a moment, Cheng Yin said.

"so much!"

Lin Xuan exclaimed in surprise, while Xiao Dian on the side started counting on her fingers, thinking, "How many tree fruits can one million buy!"

I spent ages trying to figure it out, but I still came to the conclusion that there were a lot of them!

"There are many, but you still have to be able to get them! The best result our school has achieved in recent years is the top 16."

"So it's like this?"

Lin Xuan knew that her school's combat major was relatively weak, but she didn't expect it to be this weak.

"...You'd better not say that in front of the combat department teachers or students, or you might get beaten to death."

"Mmm!" Lin Xuan obediently shut her mouth.

"But even for the top 16, the prize money is a full 200,000..." Cheng Yin suddenly realized she had gone off-topic. Lin Xuan had led her astray; how did the conversation turn to prize money?

"In short, if you have time, I suggest you go and participate; there's no harm in it." Then, Cheng Yin thought about Lin Xuan's reaction earlier and added something that she didn't think was particularly important.

"Since your spot is provided by the school, all meals and accommodation are included, and all related expenses will be covered by the school. I will also be in charge of leading the team, so it's like a publicly funded trip."

Cheng Yin didn't care whether Lin Xuan could achieve good results, or rather, the school didn't care either. After all, given the strength of their school team, only a few people on the team were truly considered worthy of hope.

Sure enough, Lin Xuan became interested when Cheng Yin said those words. After all, he didn't have much to do during the winter break, so going to take a look seemed like a good idea.

"You don't need to give me an answer now, just do it within this week."

Seeing that Lin Xuan was still considering, Cheng Yin decided to take a step back to advance. Lin Xuan nodded, but at this moment, Xiao Dian carefully shook Lin Xuan's collar on his shoulder and whispered:

"Dandan!"

[So much money!]

Lin Xuan gave him a speechless look. He was only looking at the bonus without even considering whether he could actually get it. Even if he did go, it would only be with the idea of ​​a paid vacation. The bonus was just wishful thinking.

Lin Xuan stayed in the gaming club for a while afterward. The other members of the club were quite enthusiastic towards Lin Xuan, since they all felt that he was probably the person they could rely on in the future.

It was probably time for school to end, so Lin Xuan said goodbye to the others and left.

Just as Lin Xuan arrived at the apartment elevator, she received a call from the deliveryman.

"Hello, your package has arrived at your door. Are you home?"

Lin Xuan glanced at the time and confirmed that she had indeed ordered the delivery at this time. The package mainly contained an energy cube crafting device and the Thunder Stone she had previously bought for Xiao Dian. Although she didn't know if it would work, she bought it anyway.

"immediately!"

Lin Xuan quickly replied and hung up the phone. She took the elevator to the rooftop and saw a delivery person with a dog pattern on their uniform. She quickly signed for the package and dragged it into the room.

"Phew~ How do I use this thing?"

Lin Xuan took the device out of the box and placed it in the center of the living room. As for the Thunder Stone, he threw it aside and would ask Dr. Sun Siming how to use it later when he had time.

The main problem now is about this machine... how do I use it?

The device has a dispensing port, presumably for dispensing tree fruits, and in the middle is a relatively large box. The internal structure is not visible from the outside, but Lin Xuan doesn't need to know that.

Then, looking at the "high-tech" device that had appeared in their home, Lin Xuan and Xiao Dian exchanged a glance, then decisively threw the thick instruction manual into the trash can and went to Bilibili to search for instructions on how to use the device.

Fortunately, this device is quite popular, and Lin Xuan actually found a tutorial video that has been viewed over 100,000 times, which makes her feel more at ease.

However, Lin Xuan did not take the tree fruits that Dr. Sun Siming suggested directly. Instead, she took the orange fruits, which were not worth much. Even if she failed, she would not feel bad.

Lin Xuan first poured water into the device as shown in the video, and then pressed the one-click cleaning button next to it to give the device a bath.

Next comes the stage of adding the fruit, which is also very simple. Just throw in the required fruit in order. Lin Xuan casually threw in an orange fruit.

Next came the operation phase. Lin Xuan followed the actions of the video uploader, pressing each button one by one, and then clicked the confirm button. The machine in the video spat out a very complete energy cube. Although the quality was definitely not top-notch, it was definitely edible.

As for what Lin Xuan did...

"Departed?"

Lin Xuan dragged the pile of bluish, bumpy, unidentified objects in her hand with a plate and tentatively asked Xiao Dian on the side.

The little dot leaned closer and carefully sniffed the air, then frantically retreated until it reached the corner of the wall, its head bobbing like a rattle.

Then, as if he had thought of something strange, he looked at Lin Xuan with sad eyes.

"Dandan!"

[If you think I'm eating and drinking for free, I can eat rice with rice, but please don't poison me with that!]

"Is it really that exaggerated?" Lin Xuan muttered to herself, then leaned in to smell it, and silently threw the plate and the plate into the trash can.

Originally, while oranges had no effect on humans, they were quite sweet and delicious. But what Lin Xuan made... well, it's definitely not something that can be described with ordinary human terms.

At the same time, he also seemed to possess certain properties of the energy cube. You had to get close to feel how terrifying he was. Luckily, Xiaodian didn't eat it in one bite, otherwise Lin Xuan might have been arrested for murdering an elf.

"It's a small problem. It's just that the first attempt failed. You'll succeed if you try a few more times!" Lin Xuan comforted Xiao Dian beside him.

Little Dot: ...

I always have a bad feeling.

Chapter 61 What's it to you?

Lin Xuan initially held onto the unrealistic idea that "if you try more, you'll eventually learn," but after actually trying it out and ruining half a basket of oranges, he gave up on the idea.

"Dandan~"
