Pokémon travel photography: Starting with riding the wave of popularity.

Hachisaku, who was grading exam papers and proctoring the exam, was slightly taken aback when he saw the message he received on his phone.

Aoki actually contacted me because of Natsuki?

Hachisaku was somewhat curious about Aoki's motives.

"Could these two be relatives?"

However, he looked at the dojo he had planned to visit for the Natsuki test and his expression was somewhat surprised.

"It's the same assignment I got!"

……

However, Natsuki was unaware of all this at the time. After habitually bothering Aoki with text messages, Natsuki rested his chin on his hand and watched the Flower Sea Lion's basketball performance while idly waiting for Haruka and Shiyu to appear.

Xia Mu plans to run away with Xiao Yao and Zi Yu after the exam results come out today.

Of course, Xia Mu wasn't worried about Nemo's family coming to his door; he just felt that he could no longer suppress his desire to travel.

"Yes, that's it!"

Xia Mu nodded, finding a suitable reason for his strategic relocation.

"To be honest, I could say it's to gather material. After all, once I release the video of Liyong City, all that'll be left are the videos of Feiyun City and Leiwen City. If I don't gather some more material, I'll just be sitting around doing nothing..."

The more Xia Mu thought about it, the more he felt he was a genius.

"Fortunately, Xiaoyao and Ziyu don't know about this..."

"Don't know what?!"

Xiaoyao, who had just left the classroom to look for Xia Mu, immediately approached Xia Mu out of curiosity.

Were you just saying bad things about me?

"(⊙o⊙)...Look, it's Chicken Bro playing basketball!"

Natsuki didn't answer Haruka's question directly. Instead, he raised his hand and yelled at the Blaziken that was skillfully dribbling a basketball not far away.

"Wow, it's my older brother!"

stare--

Xiaoyao narrowed her eyes slightly, unable to tell for a moment whether Xia Mu was acting crazy or using this method to escape her own problems.

However, Xiaoyao didn't pay much attention to this matter, after all, Ziyu had already left the classroom and come to the basketball court.

"Xiaoyao, how did you do on the test? What was your answer to the 'Electric Double Strike' question? What was the multiplier?"

"I wrote 1.5 times..."

Xiaoyao scratched her head.

"The move 'Electric Double Strike' unleashes all the Pokémon's electricity, dealing massive damage to the opponent. After use, the Pokémon's Electric type disappears for a period of time. In that state, Babuboon becomes crystallized and then uses an Electric-type move, resulting in a 1.5x damage increase!"

Hearing Xiaoyao's analysis, Ziyu breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's great, that's what I thought too!"

Then, just like children who check their answers after an exam, the two girls calculated their scores amidst surprise and cheers.

Under these circumstances, Xia Mu and the others finally got to see the results of the exams.

"Next, those whose names are called by me, come to me to collect your Taijing Pearls, and then gather on the playground..."

"Yes!"

Amidst the loud responses from Natsuki and the others, Hachisaku nodded in satisfaction and then began the registration process.

"Xia Mu, you pass!"

"Xiaoyao, you've passed!"

"Zi Yu, you pass!"

"Good Shadow..."

The three of them immediately took out the Taijing Pearl that temporarily belonged to them from the huge box in front of Hachisaku.

"Regardless of whether I can pass the upcoming Gym Leader Basic Test and Application Test, once this thing is in my hands, I'm not going to hand it over!"

Xia Mu touched the smooth surface of the crystal bead and showed an excited expression.

Next, after Xiaoyao and Ziyu also received their Taijing Beads, Xia Mu and the others immediately headed to the huge playground behind Orange Academy.

When Xia Mu and the others arrived here.

At this time, there were already a few scattered students from other classes waiting on the playground.

As time went by, more and more people came here.

"Natsuki!!"

Since arriving at Orange Academy, Dan Yu, who had always wanted to find Natsuki but had to give up because Nari had various things to do, let out a surprised cry.

"Danyu!!"

Xia Mu immediately prepared to go forward and hug Dan Yu, jumping and skipping happily.

Chapter 248 Boys aren't necessarily out of the question

Unfortunately, just as Natsuki was about to grope him...

"Ahem, everyone gather around!"

Claywell's sudden appearance gave Nari a great opportunity.

"Hey, hurry up, the principal is about to speak!"

Nali immediately pulled Danyu away and disappeared into the crowd.

Seeing this, Xia Mu's expression immediately turned very disappointed.

However, Claver then began to speak.

"good morning everyone!"

"First of all, congratulations on passing the basic cultural test. Next, you will need to travel to various cities in Padia to find your assigned Gym Leaders for a basic combat test... During this time, the school will work with the Gym Leaders to evaluate your use of Crystallization!"

At this moment, Ms. Huangbo, who was originally supposed to be Xia Mu's homeroom teacher, also stepped forward.

"Next, I will explain the rules for this training program!"

Teacher Huangbo has a very loud voice, so Xia Mu's attention was immediately drawn to her.

"First of all, crystallization battles between students are prohibited during the training period. If you want to gain experience in crystallization, go find the gym leader you have been assigned!"

"Secondly, when battling a Gym Leader, you can only use one Pokémon. After obtaining the Gym Leader's certification, you can return to school!"

"Third, let's all go with full energy!"

"Oh!" xN

"Speak louder!"

"Oh!!" xN

……

After Teacher Huangbo finished explaining the rules, Xia Mu and the others immediately saw their respective arrangements on their phones.

"I am Miss Feng from Yuanmo Town!"

"I am Mr. Kou Sha from Shenbo Town!"

"I am Miss Qishu from Niangguang City!"

Xia Mu looked at the map of the Padiya region and was very satisfied with Aoki's efficiency.

Not only is her first destination the round town that Snake Sister has always wanted to go to, but the cities that Xiaoyao and Ziyu were assigned to are also very suitable for her to ride the wave of popularity.

Like the Padiya artist Kosa, who is as famous as Yadi in Feiyun City, and the strange tree who made an appointment with him to make a video.

"Hehehe, I'm about to strike it rich!"

Thinking of the painting Ah Miao had called to inform him that she had received, Xia Mu now felt a surge of desire for Kou Sha.

Of course, at this time, Xia Mu was also getting restless with Ah Feng and Qi Shu.

The town of Yuanmo, where Afeng lives, is not far from Orange Academy.

Therefore, after confirming his destination, Xia Mu immediately urged Xiao Yao and Zi Yu to pack their luggage and prepare to stay overnight in Yuanmo Town.

Xiaoyao and Ziyu agreed to Natsuki's request to leave today after he pleaded, "I need to shoot more footage, please, this is a once-in-a-lifetime request."

Afterwards, Xia Mu and the others returned to their rooms to pack their luggage.

……

When Xia Mu returned to his room, the first thing he saw was three cups of gold coins on the desk.

"The Money-Gathering Spirit is here to bring warmth again?!"

Xia Mu skillfully picked up the coin and put it into the treasure chest in his backpack.

Ever since Xia Mu first woke up in her dormitory and found two gold coins that had suddenly appeared on her table, she suspected that the money-grubbing spirit that she had stolen the coins from had come looking for her.

However, Xia Mu searched the entire dormitory but could only find two gold coins on the table. Especially since nothing was missing from his backpack, Xia Mu was even more puzzled.

Suo Cailing chased him all the way from the airport to the dormitory, then left a coin and left.

Natsuki didn't think that Moneypick was such a generous Pokémon, so before going to bed the next day, Natsuki deliberately placed a camera in front of his desk.

Then, when Xia Mu woke up, he saw in the video that his room window suddenly opened, and a money-grubbing spirit, looking like it was about to cry, stiffly floated in, shook a coin in mid-air, and then floated out, locking the window behind it—a bizarre scene.

It was only after watching the videos multiple times that Xia Mu noticed the elf egg that was faintly glowing near the windowsill; otherwise, Xia Mu would have almost gone to the girls' dormitory to stay there.

"There's a ghost! I'm scared! Please hug me!"

Of course, even after discovering that everything was the work of the Pokémon in the egg that knew how to make money before it even hatched, Natsuki still tried to go to the girls' dormitory that day to sleep with Shiyu.

Unfortunately, Xia Mu died before he could even begin his mission. Before he could find the little angel Zi Yu to play the victim and gain sympathy, he was surrounded by a large group of students from Orange Academy who knew his name.

Although he painfully earned a large sum of pocket money, and even made a profit by selling courses under the name of Nemo's rival, on that day, Xia Mu forgot his dream of going to play in the girls' dormitory.

Even now, Xia Mu still feels a pang of heartache when she thinks about what happened back then.

However, fueled by this grief and anger, Xia Mu packed his bags very quickly.
