Chapter 62 Do You Believe in Fate?
"How about you acknowledge me as your big brother? I really need a cool guy like you. Besides, isn't this something you've thought about before?" Qi Hao had unknowingly stood in front of Qin Ni, extending his hand. "So, become my little brother!"
The trembling salamander wanted to speak, but was stopped by the Crimson Roaring Tiger, who shook its head at the trembling salamander, indicating that it should just watch.
Qin Ni raised his head, his eyes wide with tears, and involuntarily grasped that strong and powerful hand.
Qi Hao laughed and pulled Qin Ni up from the ground. "Since that's the case, then I'm your older brother!"
"why?"
"Why what?"
"I think I've made myself very clear, I really do have a rebellious streak."
Do you believe in fate?
"What do you mean?"
"I believe in fate. If you treat fate as a rebellious force, it will always be attached to you, and you can never escape it in this lifetime."
"But if you take rebelliousness as fate, fate is inherently elusive, and you can try to resist it and change it."
Qin Ni fell silent, wiped away the tears on his face, and then took off a pendant with a yin-yang pattern hanging from two ropes around his neck.
“This was given to me by a fortune teller when I was born. He told me to give it to someone worthwhile if I ever met him. It was a very general statement, but you have it now.”
Qi Hao took it, but before he could examine it closely, the pendant automatically split open, turning into two halves, one yin and one yang.
Qin Ni took back the negative half and said, "It seems my mother didn't lie to me, and that old fortune teller didn't lie either."
At this moment, a certain Celebi standing next to Xerneas, who was disguised as a tree, said: "Archer! Who's insulting me? Never mind, I have a feeling the prophecy is going to come true. I'd better get ready. I don't even know if my backup plan will be useful. I don't want to get dragged into this." (How long have I been hiding this? Dozens of chapters?)
"What is this?" Qi Hao picked up the anode in his hand and looked at it. The dark spot in the middle had been replaced by a round bead.
"Keystones, used for Mega Evolution. I don't know why my mom got these things from an old Taoist priest, and there were two of them." Qin Ni put the pendant back on, but this time it was half gone.
Qi Hao didn't refuse, thinking, "Just take it, there's nothing to be embarrassed about." He then hung the anode around his neck, and to be honest, the minimalist style looked quite nice.
"Let's go then, they'll be done with get out of class in a bit." Qin Ni put the guitar and keyboard back into his watch, put away the three sprites, and happily walked out of the music room. He felt very refreshed after venting his frustrations.
"You go first, I need to find the principal for something." Qi Hao opened the map on his bracelet and looked for the principal's office.
"Okay, I'm off now. The principal's office is on the roof of the office building. Bye, big brother." He called out "big brother" very solemnly at the end, and then ran away as if he were fleeing.
"(?w?) Pretty arrogant? This is even more worthwhile!" Qi Hao said, setting the location on his watch. Although the primary school section was not large, the entire academy was still quite big.
"Chen Mu, give me some feedback!" Song Chenggong said, holding the documents in his hand, looking extremely frustrated in his office.
"Isn't it just helping them prepare new Pokémon? We'll talk about it after the whole year's unified exams." Chen Mu sipped his tea listlessly—yes, his own tea.
"But you can't just start with the Pendulum, can you? How are you going to deal with Ultra Beasts? The Pendulum System alone is blocking all Pokémon except Ultra Beasts." Song Chenggong sorted through the data in his hand. Ultra Beasts were really too hard to find. Then he put down the data and sighed, "And there's the special training I was planning to do later. Even if that guy comes, there will only be three Elite Four members. I need at least four."
Chen Mu took a small sip. "Isn't the one in the mental hospital okay?"
"?_? Do you want to guess why he went to the mental hospital?" Song Chenggong couldn't help but complain. "Forget it, if all else fails, we should just ask him. There's an Ultra Beast at the mental hospital too... never mind, let Ma Ling'er go check it out herself."
"Which mental hospital? What is that?" Qi Hao peeked out from behind Chen Mu.
“Σ( ° △ °|||)︴Holy crap!” Chen Mu roared, then seamlessly transitioned into mosaic mode, writhing in his seat.
"Ah, I forgot he's a socially awkward person." Qi Hao quickly moved away from Chen Mu and slipped up to Song Chenggong: "Do you have any electromagnetic levitation skill discs?"
"Yes, and it's been prepared for a long time." Song Chenggong took out a yellow skill disc from his desk drawer.
"Thank you, Principal!" Qi Hao reached out to take the skill disc.
However, Song Chenggong had no intention of handing it over, and stuffed the disc back into the drawer. "But I can't give it to you now. There's an exam in a week. If you get first place, I'll give it to you. I'll give the self-selected skill disc as a reward to the first place winner. And that's not all; there will also be resources and items later."
"But getting something for free is even better!" Qi Hao crossed his arms, asserting, "I think I'm right."
"Please, have mercy on me, my little ancestor! If it weren't for Chen Mu's financial assistance, I would have lost everything after you freeloaded last time! You can't just freeload to the point of exhaustion!" Song Chenggong had never felt so wronged since becoming the principal.
Kyurem's voice appeared out of nowhere: "Let's settle it like this. You'll provide the daily resources, and I'll let Qihao fight for the special resources himself."
Upon hearing this, Qi Hao scratched his head, and then Kyurem continued, "Think about how long it has been since you trained seriously. Neither Azure Blade nor that Eevee has trained seriously yet. You may not have any obstacles now, but you definitely don't have any motivation either."
"That's true. Perhaps your Pokémon is indeed very strong among those of the same level, but what if they're not? For example, Zhang Zengsong's Slash Commander. You and two other Pokémon were only able to take down one of its opponents, yet there were five more like that. Also, you yourself can't really be sure of your own combat strength. I can see that you have a way to enhance yourself, but you can't use it actively, so your combat strength is completely unknown." Song Chenggong, as expected of the principal, summarized Qi Hao's current shortcomings in one sentence: insufficient level and uncertain combat strength.
"Understood, I'll go back to training then." Qi Hao nodded and walked out of the office.
"By the way, just a reminder, the exam requires three Pokémon and six teammates. I won't go into details, but Qin Ni, you must find a way to make him obey."
"Don't worry! I'm Qin Ni's older brother now!" Qi Hao confidently gave a thumbs up.
Then Qi Hao's bracelet rang, and Ma Ling'er's voice came out: "Qi Hao, dinner's ready. Come back quickly, Li Linfeng and the others have arrived too."
Qi Hao couldn't stand it! He jumped off the railing! Before leaving, he shouted, "Remember to find someone to teach my Yi Yi how to do the 'Bang Bang Heavy Strike'!"
"(д) Holy crap! This is the 18th floor!" Song Chenggong was so excited he almost jumped down!
"Yi Yi! Come out! Soar through the sky! Sky Thunder!" With a shout from Qi Hao, a huge Sky Thunder carried him away.
"Wow, this is so cool?" Song Chenggong sat back down in his seat, still shaken. Then he said to Chen Mu, "See? I told you that bringing Qi Hao over was definitely worth it. He managed to take charge of the entire Class One in just one day."
However, before Chen Mu could recover, all he could think about was: So close, they could see what I was saying, I want to die, may the world end, I'm tired!
