Pokémon, start your journey from the East Glory Alliance

Wednesday arrived quickly, and Su Yuan and Zhang Long received text messages from Li Zhong at the same time.

Li Zhong: "Come downstairs, I'm downstairs from your dormitory."

When Zhang Long saw the text message, he sat up from the bed.

"Fuck, it's just an exam, why did Director Li come in person?"

Su Yuan calmly put on his coat and put the black baseball cap on his head.

"Okay, just go downstairs, don't waste time."

After saying that, Su Yuan walked towards the door.

"Hey, don't walk so fast, wait for me."

Zhang Long hurriedly caught up, and Liu Zhen and Li Ming, who wanted to watch the fun, also followed.

When they arrived downstairs of the dormitory, Li Zhong was waiting there as expected. When he saw Su Yuan and Zhang Long coming out, he greeted them.

"Are you two ready? Let me remind you first that the assessment for travel study is not that easy. Don't say later that I increased the difficulty because I didn't want you to pass."

Zhang Long patted his chest and said.

"Come on, I'm fully prepared and will not be scared by any difficulties."

Su Yuan also nodded to indicate that he had no problem.

Li Zhong nodded, opened the car door and said.

"That's fine, get in the car, I'll take you to the exam room."

"Oh, isn't the audit exam held at school?"

Li Ming, who was watching the fun from the side, asked curiously.

Liu Zhen replied.

"Of course, otherwise how could we not know anything about the application assessment for travel studies that the school prepares every semester?"

Li Zhong also patiently added two sentences.

“The assessment method for travel learning is different from general exams and Pokémon battles, so our school has a special examination venue.

Normally, each department would arrange vehicles to take students there, but Su Yuan and Zhang Long were the first group to take the exam in the past few years, so to save trouble, I took them there myself."

"I see."

Li Ming nodded, then shouted to Su Yuan and Zhang Long.

"Come on, buddy, we believe in you."

Liu Zhen also encouraged.

"Su Yuan, Aaron, come on, we are waiting for your good news."

"Don't worry, we will be fine."

"Well, we'll do our best."

After saying goodbye, Su Yuan and Zhang Long got into Li Zhong's car. Li Zhong slowly drove the two of them out of the dormitory area, and then drove straight to the outside of Lingnan University campus.

Zhang Long asked excitedly while sitting in the car.

"Director Li, can you tell us what the test will be like? Anyway, we are already in the car, so there is no chance to cheat. Tell us a little so that we can be mentally prepared."

Li Zhong flatly rejected Zhang Long's offer.

"No, it's a taboo to reveal the test questions before the exam. I'm a teacher and also the dean of your department. I can't do such a thing."

"Don't worry, we don't need you to tell us everything. Just give us a general idea, for example, will there be a Pokémon battle session?"

This time Li Zhong did not refuse directly, but nodded.

"Yes, Pokémon battles are also a major part of the assessment."

Zhang Long became even more excited after getting Li Zhong's answer.

"It's a big item, which means there are other tests besides Pokémon battles. Can you tell me what they are?"

"I can't tell you that. I can only say that the application assessment for travel study will be different from any assessment method you have experienced before."

"Ah this."

Zhang Long scratched his head. He was a little confused by what was said. This was different from any previous assessment method. Was it really that mysterious?

Not giving up, he asked curiously again.

“Is there a written test?”

"I think so."

"What do you mean by should be considered?"

Zhang Long was stunned by Li Zhong's "should be considered to be there". If there is, there is, and if there is not, there is not. What does it mean to "should be considered to be there"?

Su Yuan on the side thought for a while and said.

"What this means is that there should be an assessment that requires thinking just like a written test, but it's different from the traditional answering questions on a paper."

Hearing Su Yuan's words, Li Zhong also nodded.

"Su Yuan is right, that's probably what he meant."

"It requires thinking, but it's different from answering a test paper? Decryption? Or Werewolf?"

"You'll know when the time comes."

Li Zhong did not answer. He drove the car out of the downtown area and started to accelerate.

Soon the three of them arrived at a large facility in the suburbs.

Su Yuan was stunned when he saw the sign of this facility.

Zhang Long asked directly.

"Wilderness Survival Experience Camp? What the hell is this? Is this also in our school?"

Li Zhong parked the car and said.

"Okay, get out of the car, we're here."

Su Yuan suddenly had a bad feeling. Could this travel study assessment be about how to survive in the wilderness?

Oh my god, what is this Bear Grylls Experience Camp?

If Bear Grylls is a trainer, he can probably fight Pokémon with his bare hands, so Bear Grylls is actually a super real rookie?

Li Zhong led the two of them into the survival experience camp, introducing them as they walked.

"This experience camp is indeed an industry of our school and is open to the public at ordinary times. As for its specific business, it allows those who want to become trainers and explore the wild but have missed the opportunity for some reason to come here to experience it.

Of course, that is just a side job. The main purpose of this experience camp is to train our Lingnan students and prevent them from becoming novices who only know textbooks when they leave school.”

After listening to Li Zhong's introduction, Su Yuan couldn't help but be amazed. Lingnan University's business is quite extensive.

“Will anyone come here to experience it?”

Zhang Long asked with some curiosity.

"As far as I know, many people come back to experience it. After all, many people once dreamed of becoming a trainer or adventurer, but finally gave up due to various reasons in life. If they have time, they come back here to experience the life they once dreamed of. Of course, the main reason is that the price here is cheaper than some other places. After all, our main purpose is to train students, and profit is secondary. All the money earned is invested in upgrading and maintaining facilities."

As he spoke, Li Zhong led the two to the innermost part of the experience camp. A bus was parked in an open space among the trees. Students were getting off the bus one after another. One look at the department uniforms they were wearing showed that they were all students majoring in combat.

"It looks like we came just in time, they just arrived as well."

"Old Li! Over here, over here."

Not far away, Director Zhao from the Combat Department waved to Li Zhong.

Li Zhong led the two of them over there.

"Haha, Lao Li, you're really fast. We set out earlier than you but we still arrived at the same time."

"You guys are on a bus, I drove here by myself, so of course I'm faster than you."

"Haha, you actually drove them here yourself. You must have worked hard."

As he spoke, Zhao Xuanzhen greeted Su Yuan and the others.

"Long time no see, both of you. Happy New Year."

"Happy New Year, Director Zhao."

"Happy New Year."

Chapter 114: The content of the assessment is wilderness survival?

Zhao Xuanzhen glanced at Su Yuan and then at Li Zhong, then smiled.

"I've long said that you were good at fighting, but you insisted on staying in the biology department. Now look at you, aren't you here to take the review for the travel study?"

Li Zhong's expression changed after hearing this.

However, Su Yuan replied with a smile.

"Whether it's specializing in combat or studying biology, these are the paths I chose. I just made my own choice and walked on the path I chose. Thank you and Director Li for your advice, but I still prefer my own ideas."

"Hahaha, good, it's a good thing for young people to have their own ideas."

Zhao Xuanzhen laughed twice, then asked again.

"I've read your information. Both of you have successfully obtained two badges. So, there shouldn't be any problem with your ability to fight. But I think Director Li should have told you that the application assessment for travel study is not that simple. You should work hard."

"Don't worry, no matter how difficult it is, it won't be a problem for us!"

Zhang Long can be said to be full of confidence.

"That's good. The assessment will begin soon. Next, let your Director Li tell you what to do. I'm going to go explain the precautions to the students in our department."

After saying that, Zhao Xuanzhen chatted with Li Zhong for a few more words before turning around and leaving.

Li Zhong adjusted his glasses and said.

"Okay young men, you better listen carefully to what I'm going to say next.

Since you have chosen to travel and study, you should understand that in addition to the cities where we humans live, the land of Donghuang is mostly wilderness where Pokémon live, so it is very important to master the skills and techniques of living in the wild.

Surviving in the wild is not only a test for Pokémon, but also a test for trainers. Knowledge, physical fitness, skills, and wild combat are all essential.

Therefore, the main contents of this assessment include knowledge assessment, physical fitness assessment, skill assessment, and field combat assessment."

As he said this, he handed each of them a numbered card.

"Here are your test numbers. Since there are only two of you from our department taking the test, you two will need to take the test together with the students from the Battle Department. Good luck to you."

After receiving his test number, Su Yuan heard the sound of the assembly whistle, and the travel study application assessment officially began.

The first assessment item is knowledge reserve.

The candidates were led to an open field filled with all kinds of fruits, which were divided into dozens of small piles. Next to each pile of fruit were two baskets, one labeled "toxic" and the other "non-toxic".

"The first test is to identify edible fruits."

The examiner shouted through the loudspeaker.

"When traveling in the wild, you often run out of food. At this time, being able to distinguish whether the fruit is poisonous or not will be the key to solving the food problem. Of course, sometimes Pokémon are more professional than trainers in this regard, so this assessment allows Pokémon to help with sorting.

The rules have been read out, the test time is half an hour, and the timer begins! "

"beep--!"

With a whistle, the test officially began. Su Yuan was happy looking at the pile of fruits in front of him.

I am a biology student, and I only studied the two books of zoology and botany in the first semester of my freshman year. The first few chapters of botany talked about tree fruits.

Moreover, as an experienced Pokémon player, Su Yuan knows very well what each fruit is used for.

Therefore, this first assessment was not difficult for Su Yuan and Zhang Long, but it was quite challenging for students from the Battle Department. However, they also had their own way, which was to let their Pokémon help with the screening, especially some Grass-type Pokémon trainers. Basically, they could tell whether a Grass-type Pokémon was poisonous or not and whether it was edible or not as soon as they handled it.

"This is the flat cherry fruit, eating it can resist insect-type skills... This is the honey fruit, it increases intimacy and reduces special attack effort... This is the algae root fruit... This is the peach fruit, this is the wood fruit, and this is the pomelo fruit..."

Su Yuan finished the screening while muttering, and Zhang Long did the same. Although he didn't seem to like studying, he was not at all vague about anything that had anything to do with fighting and eating.

"beep--!"
