Chapter 64 You're the protagonist, right?
"You're too kind, Chairman Ye. There's no need for your supplies. I can't accept such a generous gift without having done anything for you. It's really too much for me."
Li Luochen politely declined Ye Tian's offer.
His relationship with Ye Tian only truly began after his father's sacrifice. If he accepted the supplies, it would be tantamount to owing a debt of gratitude.
Li Luochen didn't want to owe too much.
If all else fails, he can settle his Rainbow Group share dividends in advance, which will surely get him a lot of supplies.
With Sakaki's abilities, I'm sure he can get some good stuff for himself.
There's no harm in using your network.
"Okay, then let me know if you need anything later."
Ye Tian naturally knew what Li Luochen was worried about.
He didn't insist, but chatted for a few minutes before seeing the guests off when he realized there was little time left.
Before leaving, Ye Tian reminded him, "Recently, many talented individuals from other provinces have come to Rongcheng, probably to challenge you. Be careful."
"It's alright, my goal is to battle against strong trainers."
Collecting registration fees is one aspect.
Most importantly, broaden your horizons and see if there are any skilled trainers among your peers who can help Charizard and its companions relax their muscles and joints.
This can be considered a warm-up before exploring the secret realm.
……
……
Fuzhou, Fujian Rongdao Temple.
The area outside the dojo was bustling with activity, everyone eagerly anticipating today's match.
"The information about the Minrong Gym Leader has been updated! The Gym Pokémon are five: Charizard, Dragonair, Gruuldon, Flareon, and... Naganadel?!"
"What Pokémon has those four characters? Is it the evolved form of that Poipole from before? Its name has one more character than the previous four, so it must be stronger, right?"
"Click to see what's going on. Holy crap, why does it look so much like a Beedrill?"
"Beedrill? I laughed just thinking about it. Let it evolve a little further. Oh, Beedrill is already in its final form, that's a shame."
I don't know who started this trend.
This successfully makes people think that the Mandibles of the Needle is a relative of Beedrill, and therefore its strength must not be that great.
It also made them wonder, if this is really his level, is Li Luochen here to do charity?
Zicha...
The dojo gates opened at that moment.
Li Luochen returned to the dojo and arrived at the entrance, with a four-jawed needle dragon beside him.
He didn't hide it; instead, he displayed it openly and honestly.
Now that he's a gym leader, he certainly won't hide his Pokémon away.
"Wow, this Beedrill (from the Eastern Region) is huge! It's as tall as a normal one-story building! Don't you think it's amazing?"
"I couldn't hold back, even the Beedrill came. If you ask me, maybe I should just go for it as the Admiral, get the challenge qualification, defeat Gym Leader Luo Chen, and have a good feast."
Li Luochen looked in the direction of the sound and saw Liu Yan and Wang Qiu hiding in the crowd.
These two are pretending to be admirals, trying to fool people into thinking they're being promoted.
Many of those present were university students who had come just to join in the fun.
Driven by the trend of Liu Yan and Wang Qiu, they all became "stock investors," dreaming that their "A-shares" would soar to the sky, allowing them to kick Li Luochen aside, embrace their goddess, and reach the pinnacle of life.
"All in! One main account and three alt accounts, taking up four spots! I refuse to believe it, surely I'll get one!"
"I'm from the Lin family of Xiamen. I hope you can give me some face and let me try for the rank of Admiral. Could you please give me a spot?"
"Shenjin, why don't you, a rich kid, just go to a top breeder and order one custom-made?"
The scene became chaotic at one point.
But Li Luochen did not speak up to stop him. Instead, he started a live stream and announced three "Chosen Moments".
This event is open only to admirals. Those who draw the "Chosen Moment" will be able to participate in the challenge set by Li Luochen.
It had only been a short time since the show started, and in less than a minute, it had already attracted over a hundred admirals.
Even with a minimum guarantee, I can get 100,000 yuan, which is enough to improve my meals.
This achievement directly brought him to the milestone of "100 mentions," adding a valuable addition to his livestreaming career.
"Baby, are you confident in this battle?"
Cattleya blinked her beautiful eyes slightly and even massaged Li Luochen's shoulders to help him relax before the battle.
"Yes. If I wasn't confident, I wouldn't have issued this challenge."
Li Luochen never does anything he's not sure he can do.
Everything I do is only done after I've determined that it's safe and secure.
"Then I'm relieved. Good luck in this battle, I'll be cheering you on from the sidelines~"
Cattleya was overjoyed.
The more capable Li Luochen was, the happier she became.
After all, he's her fiancé!
Li Luochen smiled without saying a word, but simply ruffled Jia Deliya's hair.
Five minutes passed quickly.
The moment of destiny has ended.
The list of the three winning admirals has thus been revealed.
only……
Li Luochen raised an eyebrow.
Two familiar faces were found on the list of winners.
That's right.
It was Liu Yan and Wang Qiu.
One was his defeated opponent, and the other was a chubby little follower he had just met in college.
If it weren't for the fact that the chosen moment couldn't be predetermined, Li Luochen would have thought he was pulling strings.
As for the last one...
"Is the owner of 'Tongtong' there?"
Li Luochen looked at the third winner and asked around.
"I'm here! I'm here!"
A blonde girl squeezed out from the crowd.
She is about 1.53 meters tall, wearing a JK uniform with white stockings that just go past her knees. The stockings have a pair of cat ears and smiling faces etched on them, making her seem somewhat childlike.
The girl was Shi Xintong, Shi Wen's older sister.
With her blonde hair in twin ponytails, everyone thought she came from the Galar region.
Shi Xintong stared at Li Luochen for a while before slowly saying, "You're the main character, right?"
"?"
Li Luochen didn't understand what this unconventional girl was saying for a moment.
"No need to pretend, I've done my research. Powerful figures from all over the country are gathered in Rongcheng, and they're all vying for your attention."
As she spoke, Shi Xintong paced back and forth, stating matter-of-factly:
"Although you're not some retired soldier king, a young man with superb medical skills, or a son-in-law who pretends to be weak even though you're clearly very strong..."
"But from this perspective alone, you belong to the classic shonen protagonist archetype in Kanto anime!"
"So, you're the main character!"
Li Luochen: ……
Audience: ...
"What you need to do now is to quickly uninstall the novel app and the anime video app from your phone."
Li Luochen thought Shi Xintong had actually discovered something.
The result is a chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) young girl who is obsessed with reading novels and watching anime!
It feels just like that guy named Shi Wen from before.
She's quite good-looking, but her brain isn't very sharp.
They look like siblings!
"How about we start by fighting each other?"
Li Luochen rubbed his temples, feeling slightly weary.
"Um~ Before that, let me introduce myself."
"My name is Shi Xintong, and I come from the Shi family in Beijing. I am the strongest among my generation. Our family has been breeding Dragon-type Pokémon for generations and is known as the Dragon-type family."
Shi Xintong first introduced herself before getting to the point: "I've prepared a lot for this battle. All the Pokémon I've brought this time are Fairy-type, just to take you down in one go."
Li Luochen: "?"
Let's not even talk about what that last, raunchy phrase was.
Based on this description, you, a young lady from a dragon-type family, are playing a fairy-type?!
No wonder you're the strongest among your peers.
Who can beat you?!
but……
Is this little girl planning to use a Fairy-type Pokémon to fight Poison or Dragon-type Naganadel?
Or is there some secret weapon?
Li Luochen carefully examined Shi Xintong.
And you know what? I actually saw it...
