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

The quality of the most powerful blocks simply fluctuates between normal and good.

Some exceptionally talented breeders can go beyond simply following the process during production; they can also make fine adjustments based on the state of the fruits and auxiliary materials inside the manufacturing machine to ensure that the energy loss rate of the materials is reduced.

The resulting energy cubes could be of three qualities: excellent, superior, or perfect.

The energy content of a common quality energy cube is 20%, good is 35%, excellent is 50%, superb is 60%, and perfect is 70%.

In other words, the more impurities are removed from an energy cube, the better its quality will be.

Perfect quality energy cubes are also the only ones currently crafted by any alliance.

The limit of the energy cube manufacturing machine is that no matter how skilled a person is, this is the limit.

The higher the quality of the energy block, the stronger its effect.

If ordinary, good quality Energy Cubes provide the energy needed for Pokémon to survive, then excellent, top-quality Energy Cubes are not only easier to absorb, but also have many additional effects.

Su Hao had never seen a perfect quality energy cube before.

These energy cubes are said to even come with special effects.

With his small, portable energy block manufacturing machine, Su Hao could only produce energy blocks of excellent or top quality at most.

To be honest, this was the first time he had used this energy block manufacturing machine, which looked much more advanced.

Su Hao observed it briefly and found that the operating steps of this manufacturing machine were similar to his, but the precision of the machine itself should be quite different.

He went to the table next to him, selected the most common recipe materials for Ghost-type Energy Cubes, and walked to the crafting machine.

"First, the tree fruit needs to be chopped into small pieces..."

This step is the simplest; Su Hao only needs to put on gloves and use a special knife to cut the fruit and auxiliary materials into small, roughly the same size pieces.

"Then put all the ingredients into the machine according to the specified proportions..."

幽灵系能量方块的官方配方比例是2:2:3:1，意思是2份最便宜的桃桃果、2份较为稀有昂贵的佛柑果，3份有着幽灵系能量的辅材和一份万用的文柚果。

"Turn on the machine, and constantly control the mixing speed and centripetal force inside the machine by using the two knobs..."

The Energy Cube manufacturing mechanism involves two steps. One step is to thoroughly chop up the tree fruit and materials. The breeder controls the machine to attract the energy-containing nutrients to the center by centrifugal force, while the breeder controls the machine to throw out the impurities by centrifugal force.

A bright blue light flashed in Su Hao's eyes, and the waveguide completely enveloped the entire machine. At this moment, the state of the materials inside the energy cube manufacturing machine was under his observation.

“gengen...genger!”

Gengar, feeling emaciated from hunger, emerged from the shadows, tugged at Mu Yulan's sleeve, and pointed at Su Hao, indicating that this was the strange energy that had caused him to be accidentally exposed.

"It really is a special ability. It seems this child has directly used this ability in the creation of energy cubes... I can't wait to see it," Mu Yulan murmured to herself.

These older breeders often rely on their own experience or the assistance of Pokémon to create Power Cubes. The transmission of information takes time, and it is possible that due to missing the key moments, there has been no new development in Power Cubes for a long time.

Chapter 169 Quality: Perfection

"The rotation speed needs to be increased a bit..."

Su Hao was able to see through the waveguide that even this significantly more advanced machine could not remove all impurities from the nutrients located at the center of the machine.

This means that as long as the machine is not upgraded, it will be impossible to produce higher quality energy cubes.

Su Hao made continuous fine-tuning based on the machine's internal conditions, but still could not make it progress any further.

Slowly exhaling a breath of stale air, Su Hao understood that even if he continued to operate, he could not break through this step. On the contrary, he would lose all his energy because he missed the best time for shaping.

“It seems the machine has reached its limit…” he murmured.

Su Hao pressed the green button next to him, which is the compression function that all energy block makers have.

Molds with compression functions will appear from both the top and bottom, directly compressing the energy blocks into block shapes.

According to the book, this is the most stable shape for an energy cube.

He also remembered an experiment he had only glimpsed in a book.

Once the energy cube is formed, any external interference will only damage its structure and cause the loss of nutrients and energy. If the nutrients located at the very center of the manufacturing machine are tempered by a certain energy substance within a limited time and in their original position, can the excess impurities be removed?

The person who proposed this hypothesis tried to have Pokémon help them create the Energy Cubes, not on a machine, but with the help of Pokémon.

His final conclusion was that using fire or electricity could remove some of the impurities, but when Pokémon were used to operate it, it was still stuck at the best and perfect quality levels.

The experiment eventually ended, and the main method of creating energy blocks still relies on machines.

"Buzz-"

A sound like water boiling came from inside the energy block maker, and billowing white smoke billowed from the top of the machine.

"Now all we need to do is let it cool down naturally, and that's it." Su Hao took out six still-steaming pale purple energy cubes from the machine mold.

As soon as the energy cube was taken out of the manufacturing machine, a fragrance that was particularly attractive to certain Pokémon wafted out, and within a few breaths it began to spread to the surrounding area.

"What is the taste?"

"It smells so good..."

Many examinees who were still taking the exam were attracted by the rich aroma in the air, but unfortunately they dared not be distracted during the exam.

My heart feels like it's being scratched by a cat; I'm itching to see it but can't, it's so painful.

The staff member next to Su Hao was different. She was the one in charge of judging, so she couldn't suppress her curiosity and quickly came to Su Hao's side.

"Candidate number 1145, let me see."

Su Hao did not stop him, and stepped aside to allow the staff member to examine the body more closely.

"This color...the sheen...the aroma...it's amazing!"

Bai Jie is an intermediate-level cultivator; even if she were to use all her strength, she couldn't create a basic energy cube of this level.

"So how much energy does it contain... I estimate at least 50%, and these six are basically the same quality!"

The more she observed, the more exaggerated Bai Jie's expression became.

Is this an energy cube that a novice breeder who has just come to take the exam can make?

It took her so many years of experience and skill to finally be able to occasionally make a few high-quality energy cubes.

Her curiosity grew, and she even started fiddling with the detector on the table next to her.

Mu Yulan watched for a long time. When Bai Jie was about to cross the line and begin the test that was not required in the assessment, she stopped her and said, "That's enough. There's no need for further testing."

The test to make an energy cube only requires one out of six energy cube materials to be successful. At most, the final check is to make sure the appearance is fine, and then you pass the test.

"Branch president!? I'm sorry, I overstepped my bounds!" Bai Jie exclaimed immediately, startled.

"It's alright, go to the other candidates and just give them full marks for the exam."

Mu Yulan quickly explained Bai Jie's situation in just a few words.

After seeing him off, she turned to look at Su Hao, who hadn't said a word.

To be honest, she originally thought that Su Hao's ability to make energy cubes of good or excellent quality was already a testament to the high school student's exceptional talent.

"I never expected it to actually be perfect." Her tone was one of surprise.

The old man, who was called the branch president, saw through the quality of the energy cube at a glance, and Su Hao couldn't help but sigh that the older generation really had extraordinary abilities.

[Ghost-type Basic Energy Cube (Perfect): Increases attraction to Ghost-type Pokémon. Slightly increases Ghost-type affinity after a short time following consumption.]

He saw the energy cube's rating as soon as it came out of the machine, and as he expected, it was perfect.

The reason he wasn't surprised that he produced energy cubes of this quality was simple: he had always been aware that small energy cube makers weren't precise enough, and this large maker offered far more room for maneuver.

The power of waveguides provides an unobstructed field of view, and the powerful reaction and control that come with a strong physique are both indispensable.

It took him combining all these elements to create these six energy cubes.

Su Hao looked at the branch president and asked in confusion, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

During the lull in Bai Jie's observation of the energy cube, he made a point of looking around.

The people who arrived before him were still struggling in front of the machine. The four people on the left who were identifying the Pokémon eggs seemed to be arguing with the staff, but Su Hao didn't pay attention because they were too far away.

He disdained to interfere with the group's exam; it would be better to get his hands dirty.

Regardless of whether they passed the exam or not, he'll definitely put them in a sack after the exam is over and they leave. Isn't beating them up better than secretly causing trouble?

Everyone around him was still taking their exams, but he was the only one who acted quickly and decisively. Why did the branch president want to talk to him?

Mu Yulan also noticed Su Hao's gaze towards the four cheaters earlier. She thought it was probably because these people had surpassed him in the written test, so this genius was somewhat unwilling.

However, these individuals are not important. Since they chose to take the test of identifying Pokémon eggs, the evidence has been complete. All that is needed now is to hand them over to the League Police Department.

It won't be long before the kid finds out, and then he'll naturally feel better.

"I'd like to discuss a business deal with you. Are you interested?" She revealed her purpose directly.
