Elf: Starts with small diamonds, then mutates into Diancie.

She was also angered by these people who were spewing nonsense.

The others chimed in, "Let's ambush them after the exam."

Su Hao was originally going to tell them that he was fine and not to go and confront them, since the four of them didn't seem to have any connection.

He can have his fun by himself; at worst, he can call his mom to get him out.

"Everyone, quiet down! We will now begin reading the exam content!"

The sound of high heels clicking rang out, and Su Hao turned his gaze in that direction.

A woman dressed in a professional office suit, resembling a secretary, somehow managed to make a clattering sound as she walked on the grass in her high heels. In front of her stood an elderly woman with shiny black hair and a sprightly demeanor.

Behind them, a large group of staff and arm wrestlers carried in a variety of items.

"Huh? It's not just about making energy cubes?" Su Hao asked in surprise. He remembered the driver saying that each exam would only have one theme.

He cast a questioning look at Liu Yue, the only one among them who was taking the exam for the second time.

Liu Yue shook her head and said softly, "I don't know either."

Su Hao stroked his chin, sensing that things were getting interesting.

The female secretary walked in front of the group, while the old man stood behind her, smiling as he watched them.

The female secretary began to announce the exam content loudly: "The questions for this exam are:"

"1. Use the limited materials prepared by the association to treat an injured Pokémon."

After reading this, she pointed to several Pokémon that had been released from their Poké Balls by staff members and looked listless.

"2. Design training programs for specific beginner-level Pokémon."

She waved the papers in her hand and pointed in another direction.

There were several novice Pokémon there, restrained by another group of staff, looking at them with curious expressions.

3. Create an energy block of ordinary quality!

The female secretary pointed to

Behind him, in addition to the energy block generator, a new table had been added, covered with tree fruits and auxiliary materials.

4. Identify the species and type of the Pokémon egg!

She slightly moved her finger that was pointing at the Energy Cube Maker. Next to the Maker was a glass cabinet filled with Elf Eggs.

"These are the four types of questions for this exam. You can choose whichever you are best at!"

After reading the announcement, the female secretary didn't say much and led the old man to the other side, seemingly preparing to actually watch the exam process.

After they stepped aside, several staff members dressed in Breeders Association uniforms quickly took over her work.

"Those who want to take the treatment exam, report to me!"

"Those who want to take the training program design exam, report to me!"

......

Shu Hongyuan seemed to have suddenly regained his confidence, and with a smug look on his face, he led his underlings toward the Pokémon Egg Identification Test Area.

Su Hao and his friends ignored the clown and, after a few words of discussion, each headed to their preferred exam area.

Zhao Xing and He Kun are going to treat the Pokémon, as they are better at this than creating Energy Cubes. Li Xin and Liu Yue, on the other hand, choose to create Energy Cubes.

Su Hao didn't think much about it; after much consideration, he realized that he was still best at making energy cubes.

Unfortunately, there were only five energy block making machines in this room, and six people, including Su Hao, chose to make energy blocks.

Arriving a little late, he could only squat on the ground, idly poking at the grass.

"Is it candidate Su Hao?"

An aged female voice woke Su Hao from his reverie, and he turned to look.

"Is there anything I can help you with, sir?"

Su Hao didn't recognize the old man, but judging from the secretary's attitude, he knew she must be a leader of the Shanghai Breeders Association.

Mu Yulan didn't answer Su Hao directly. Instead, she changed the subject: "Do you want to know where you lost points on the written test?"

You saying this will put me out of sleep!

Su Hao's eyes widened slightly. To be honest, he was also very curious about which question he had answered incorrectly.

Seeing Su Hao's curious gaze, Mu Yulan didn't keep him in suspense. She covered her mouth and chuckled, "The fiftieth question."

Question 50? Su Hao racked his brains to recall, and a perfectly round black sphere appeared in his mind.

"Looks like you remembered? The answer to that question was: Jigglypuff as seen from below." Mu Yulan couldn't help but chuckle.

Yesterday, she saw through the surveillance footage that Su Hao's expression was one of surprise rather than delight at her high score, so she wanted to tell Su Hao the answer and see his reaction.

After all, the real answer is only a hair's breadth away...

"???" Su Hao was dumbfounded.

He remembered that he answered the question based on the answer from the original Pokémon series: Jigglypuff as seen from above.

"You guys really know how to have fun..."

"Alright, someone failed, so I won't disturb your exam anymore." Mu Yulan pointed to an energy cube machine emitting black smoke, where the examinee was being dragged away by staff while crying.

"Excuse me, please wait a moment while we clean the machine!"

A slightly chilly feeling made Su Hao, whose attention was focused on the energy cube machine, shiver. When he turned his head again, Mu Yulan had already returned to the female secretary's side.

"You came to me just for this? And how did an old woman manage to get there in just a few seconds..." Su Hao was completely baffled. He muttered to himself as he walked toward the manufacturing machine, preparing to start making energy cubes.

Chapter 168 Ghost-type Basic Energy Cube

"This candidate, please come here to draw a lot!"

A smiling female staff member greeted Su Hao, holding a tightly sealed wooden box with only an entrance.

Su Hao glanced at Liu Yue and Li Xin. Although the two looked serious, their work was fairly stable.

He approached the staff member, puzzled, and asked, "Hello, isn't this exam about making a universal energy cube?"

There are three types of Power Cubes. One type is the universal Power Cube, which is applicable to all Pokémon and is a jack-of-all-trades.

The second type is energy blocks with specific effects, such as energy blocks that increase recovery speed or energy blocks that enhance strength growth.

The third type is energy blocks that target various attributes, such as dragon energy blocks, ice energy blocks, steel energy blocks, and so on.

As far as he knew, these kinds of breeder exams usually required candidates to make universal energy cubes, so why was a lottery system needed?

"Most of the slips in the box are for making universal energy blocks; only a few are for other types of energy blocks. Look, those people all drew slips for making universal energy blocks." The staff member gestured towards the group of people who were still working hard to make energy blocks.

Although that was her answer on the surface, she was secretly thinking, "Only 25 out of the 200 fortune slips are special and require making specific energy cubes; the rest are all general-purpose energy cubes. Surely there can't be any unlucky person who actually wins, right?"

No, no?

Surely there aren't any unlucky people who would actually win with such a low probability?

"Come on, have a draw!" The staff member smiled brightly and pushed the wooden box she was holding toward Su Hao again.

Su Hao reached in and rummaged around.

He stirred it according to his intuition and finally drew a slip of paper located on the edge of the wooden box!

Su Hao unfolded the crumpled lottery ticket and saw several large characters written on it:

[Exam Question: Create a basic Ghost-type Energy Cube of average quality]

Su Hao: "?"

Didn't they say only a small number of people would get visas? How come it's so easy to get one?

"Excuse me, please give me your lottery ticket," the staff member urged impatiently.

Once you finish your exam, I can go home!

"Here you go..." Su Hao handed her the lottery paper with a strange expression.

The staff member took the lottery ticket and exclaimed, "Wow, I actually won! 6!"

She suppressed a laugh and said to Su Hao with a sympathetic look, "The materials are all laid out there. After you finish making it, just bring it over and let me check the quality."

She never expected that this boy would actually draw such a low-probability lottery ticket. She didn't know whether to say Su Hao was lucky or unlucky.

Su Hao didn't really care. What difference did it make what he made of energy cubes?

If the practical exam for intermediate breeders also involved making energy cubes, he could become an intermediate breeder on the spot...

"Hmm... these tree fruits are all of good quality."

Su Hao glanced around and saw that most of the tree fruits were of good quality. If the maker was skilled enough, they could be made into perfect quality primary energy cubes.

Generally speaking, the quality of the tree fruit used as the main ingredient determines the basic quality of the energy block.

Given the purity of energy contained in ordinary, high-quality tree fruits, as long as the maker does not make any mistakes while operating the energy block manufacturing machine, it is quite simple to complete the entire process and make a basic energy block.
