Chapter 45 Li Weize's Jealousy
Chapter 45 Li Weize's Jealousy
"Coach, Coach Li?"
Lin Chong's shout brought Li Weize back to his senses.
He stared blankly at the report in his hand, saying "I'm fine," but he couldn't hide his excitement.
Over the years, he has seen countless gifted elves ruined by spoiled brats, and countless poor students who tried their best but were saddened because their elves were not talented enough.
When Li Weize finally saw a gifted Pokémon appear in the hands of a trainer worthy of it, the emotion he felt at that moment was silent yet overwhelming.
He wiped his face and looked at Lin Chong again, having regained his composure.
Li Weize pulled Lin Chong along and said earnestly, "You must take your cat seriously; it's a genius..."
Before Li Weize could finish speaking, the two researchers on the other side looked at the black cat's report and exclaimed in unison, "Holy crap!"
Li Weize looked up in surprise. What was going on?!
A researcher, his face beaming with excitement, handed the sheet to Li Weize, pointing to several strings of data that Lin Chong couldn't understand at all, and said in a trembling voice.
"This little black cat doesn't just have one special bloodline; it's very likely that it has all of them!"
"What?!"
Li Weize hurriedly grabbed the list, his previously composed expression vanishing, even his voice changing: "What are its six dimensions?"
"Great! Very great! It looks a bit less impressive than Meow, but we've confirmed that its potential hasn't been fully realized!"
Lin Chong stared in astonishment at the scene of the three heads crowding together and scrambling for the order, which startled Er Mao, who had just returned from taking a test.
What's going on?
Lin Chong didn't answer, and put the two cats back into the Gulu Ball one by one. He didn't know what had happened either.
But when Li Weize looked up again, the way he looked at Lin Chong had completely changed.
Complex, joyful, melancholy... Lin Chong found it difficult to describe this look in a single word; he only felt that he was being "stared" at.
After a short while, Li Weize spoke with a bitter expression.
"Lin Chong, you absolutely must train your little black cat and Meow properly, they're both geniuses... damn it!"
Caught off guard, Li Weize suddenly swore and slammed the sheet in his hand to the ground!
He turned his back, roughly ripped off the tie in front of his suit, and wore a complex smile he had never seen before.
In that instant, he recalled the night more than twenty years ago when he collapsed after the first day of the Elf College Entrance Examination.
He didn't go home, but hid in a small alley outside Yangcheng Stadium. He remembered what his guard dog looked like—its fur was terrible, one ear was erect and the other was flat, and it could never learn even the simplest skills no matter how many times it tried.
But on the night he lost his last battle, his wounded dog nudged his hand with its head and pushed a rotten fruit it had picked up from the roadside to his feet.
Li Weize held his protective dog and cried all night.
After the college entrance examination, he failed and ended up attending an affiliated university of a third-rate college, majoring in "Elf Breeding".
Li Weize did not give up his dream of becoming a professional trainer. He attended classes during the day and worked part-time as a cleaner at a small dojo at night.
In his spare time, he would eavesdrop on and learn the battle techniques of other trainers, and then train his own Pokémon late at night after work.
Li Weize never stopped pursuing his dream, and eventually, he obtained his trainer's license.
That night, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep. He trained even harder afterward, and dreams he never dared to imagine before sprang to life in his mind like bamboo shoots after a spring rain.
Advanced Trainer... Elite Four Member... Rise to the Top!
But in the end, all these dreams fell because he hadn't broken through to a higher professional level in ten years, and was almost suffocated by the shackles called "talent".
In my memory, a voice said: "Little Li, your command skills may have reached an advanced level, but the Pokémon's strength is too weak... Go and train a new batch, a batch with higher talent..."
It took Li Weize nearly twenty years to get to this point.
How many twenty-year periods does one have in a lifetime?
Countless nights, Li Weize cried his heart out, questioning God why He was being treated this way.
If he had been given a little more wisdom, a little more opportunity, and had encountered some better Pokémon, how could he have stopped at the level of a professional intermediate trainer and become an academy coach instead?
After serving for several years, Li Weize developed a calm and composed demeanor, and he thought he had let go of the past.
But when Lin Chong appeared before him with two exceptional elves that ordinary people could never have in their entire lives, Li Weize felt as if God had played a cruel joke on him.
It was like slapping him in the face and then shaking his head as he asked him a question.
"You'd never even see an elf in your entire life, and someone else gets two of them right away. And he even has better command skills than you! Aren't you angry?"
Li Weize was furious! He was so angry he was about to explode!
But more than anything, there was the joy of "finding a treasure".
-
The testing room was deathly silent at that time.
Lin Chong and the two researchers exchanged glances, still shaken, wondering what was wrong with Coach Li and why he suddenly got angry.
At this moment, having calmed down, Li Weize straightened his tie, turned around, and said, "I'm sorry, I lost my composure."
He picked up the report that had fallen to the ground, pulled Lin Chong aside, and patiently explained it to him, line by line.
"This number represents the Pokémon's current potential ceiling, and that line represents its likelihood of learning a Super-type move..."
Lin Chong listened very attentively. This part of the knowledge was not provided to him by the experience pack, and he was writing it down now, as it might be useful in the future.
In closing, Li Weize explained the reason for their astonishment.
"The assessment shows that the elements flowing in your blood, little black cat, are extremely complex, similar to those of elves with special bloodlines, but completely different."
"It's as if it originally had a special bloodline, but was reconstructed and changed by some unknown external force."
"The researchers' current assessment is..." Li Weize paused, his eyes filled with complex emotions, "...that it might be able to learn skills from all departments."
Lin Chong: ?!
? ? ? ! ! !
Only at this moment did he vaguely understand why Li Weize had lost his composure.
How can it learn skills from all departments?
You can fill in how many points you want?! Isn't this a cheat code?!
Overwhelmed with excitement, Lin Chong soon became annoyed.
He only knew that the Black Cat's skill pool was strange before, but he didn't understand these things. This also meant that he had missed all the powerful moves he had seen in the shop - Falcon Scale, Heavenly Flood, Burning Mark...
That limited-time shop is purely based on luck; if you miss out on a good move once, you don't know how long you'll have to wait!
If he had known this would happen, he would have picked one to exchange. He still has more than 6,000 Kingdom Coins left unused!
Li Weize was unaware of Lin Chong's thoughts and was still urging him to train hard and not waste his time.
"I'll get a training plan tailored just for you tonight... no, I'll go right now!"
"Do some basic physical training at the gym this afternoon, and come back tomorrow morning!"
After saying that, Li Weize didn't even give Lin Chong a chance to reply before putting away the report and leaving.
As he walked out of the testing room, he glanced at Xiaoyun, who was standing outside the door at some point, and left with the words "Focus on your training" before hurriedly departing.
Lin Chong also came out of the testing room. He was stunned for a moment when he saw Xiao Yun, but still nodded politely and asked her.
"Excuse me, which side is the training area?"
At this moment, Xiaoyun seemed to be frightened by something, and looked dazed.
When Lin Chong asked her a question, she instinctively pointed in a direction.
After Lin Chong left, Youyou jogged over from a distance, her tone reproachful.
"I told you not to eavesdrop, did the coach yell at you?"
Xiaoyun shook her head blankly and murmured, "I didn't hear clearly, but it sounded like Coach Li was very angry inside, he was throwing things."
"ah!?"
Youyou was startled. Although Coach Li Weize was strict and always had a stern face, he was a gentle person and she had never seen him lose his temper.
Youyou speculated, "Could it be that Lin Chong made him angry?"
Xiaoyun watched the figure heading towards the training area, somewhat hesitant: "That should be it..."
But she could see clearly that Coach Li wasn't angry before he left; it was as if he was in a hurry to do something...
Xiaoyun couldn't figure out the reason, but her woman's intuition told her.
Lin Chong could be a huge obstacle to her promotion to a starting position!
