Xingcheng No. 1 High School, second year, Class 4.
Even if targeted by the Hunter Organization, school still had to be attended.
Jiang Mo became a popular figure as soon as he returned to school; the entire Xingcheng No. 1 High School knew that their school had produced a genius Researcher, especially the class teacher Yang Liu, who would tell everyone, “I knew a long time ago that this child was exceptionally gifted and full of ideas…”
Jiang Mo didn't plan to pretend anymore. Since everyone said he was a genius, he would be a genius for them to see. In the next few days, he went to obtain the Alliance's Senior Breeder certificate.
With the new energy cube developed from the new Tree Fruit, a Senior Breeder title was practically a given. He also broke Lin Zhiqiu's record from that year, becoming the youngest Senior Breeder in Alliance history.
“Who exactly is this Jiang Mo? He became a Senior Breeder at such a young age and even developed a new energy cube. He’s simply a genius among geniuses!”
“Oh my goodness, he’s going against the heavens! Just a few days ago, he developed hybrid Tree Fruit and became a Senior Researcher, and now he’s easily obtained a Senior Breeder certificate. He’s simply a genius who cultivates both!”
“I just want to ask if Jiang Mo has a girlfriend. I’m 168 cm tall and weigh 168 kg, so I’m a bit chubby, but my features are very delicate, a bit pretty…”
“Oh my square tank, sister, do you want to murder our Alliance’s genius…?”
…
Another month passed, and the inter-school examination date quickly arrived.
According to the exam schedule, the Pokémon battle assessment required each school to hold internal elimination rounds first, determining the top ten to participate in the city-level competition.
“Pikachu, use your final Thunderbolt!”
As Thunderbolt was used, the opponent’s Beedrill finally couldn't hold on and fainted.
“Beedrill is unable to battle. The winner is Jiang Mo from Class 4!”
The referee teacher announced the battle result loudly, and cheers immediately erupted from outside the arena.
Jiang Mo simply calmly recalled Pikachu and then left the examination area.
After this period of special training, Pikachu’s level increased very quickly, reaching level 26, successfully learning Thunderbolt and Iron Tail, greatly enhancing its strength.
As soon as he left the examination hall, a large group of junior girls were waiting nearby. Seeing Jiang Mo, they instantly became excited.
“Ahhh, Senior Jiang Mo, you’re so handsome!”
“Pikachu is so cute and so strong. How did Senior Jiang Mo train it? Can you teach me hand-in-hand?”
“Did you see that? Brother Jiang Mo looked at me!”
“Stop being so conceited. Senior Jiang Mo was clearly looking at me!”
Fame brings trouble, and coupled with Jiang Mo’s extreme handsomeness, he was simply a killer of teenage girls.
Mu Qingxue’s previous battle was before Jiang Mo’s, and at this time, she had just finished watching Jiang Mo’s match and was waiting for him to come out.
Jiang Mo immediately saw the most dazzling Mu Qingxue in the crowd and walked towards her with a smile.
“Wow wow wow, Senior Jiang Mo is walking towards me! Does he like me? Is he going to confess to me? Should I accept or accept…? Ahhh, it’s so difficult!”
A little fairy beside Mu Qingxue was extremely excited at this moment. Just as she was fantasizing, Jiang Mo brushed past her and came to Mu Qingxue.
“Jiang Mo, can you also teach me how to train such an adorable Pikachu to be so powerful?”
Mu Qingxue said softly, imitating the tone of other girls, making Jiang Mo a bit awkward.
Mu Qingxue appeared cold on the outside, but after getting to know her, Jiang Mo found that she was quite playful on the inside, and she was thin-skinned; a small joke would make her face flush pink, all the way to her ears.
“Give it up. Jiang Mo and Mu Qingxue are a match made in heaven. Handsome man and beautiful woman, genius paired with genius…”
“Wuwuwu, it’s just a pity for my Mu Qingxue…”
Some male classmates couldn't help but disdainfully look at the infatuated girls.
“Let’s go quickly. Chen Jiaxing’s match might not be over yet. Let’s go watch.”
The surrounding discussions made Mu Qingxue’s ears instantly turn red. Hearing Jiang Mo say this, she quickly agreed.
The two arrived at Chen Jiaxing’s examination venue and just happened to see Chen Jiaxing’s Quilava knock out the opponent’s Gloom with a Spark.
“Not bad, Jiaxing. Your cooperation with Quilava is getting better and better.”
Jiang Mo and the just-emerged Chen Jiaxing bumped fists. Chen Jiaxing was also very happy, confidently saying that he would definitely make it into the top ten in the school this time.
Chen Jiaxing had not been idle during this time. Cyndaquil had evolved into Quilava half a month ago, greatly enhancing his combat power.
And Mu Qingxue’s Ralts, after Jiang Mo healed its hidden injury, also made rapid progress, its level soaring to 28, and it also evolved into Kirlia.
Originally, Jiang Mo planned for everyone to have a meal together after the exam today to deepen their relationship.
But when Chen Jiaxing saw Mu Qingxue beside him, his eyes darted, and he immediately found an excuse to refuse: “Jiang Ge, today my mom’s Jigglypuff is having a birthday. By seniority, I have to call it Auntie Jigglypuff, so I…”
Saying that, he winked at Jiang Mo, “Why don’t you and Mu Qingxue go eat by yourselves? Don’t worry about me.”
After speaking, Chen Jiaxing slipped away like a gust of wind.
At this moment, only Jiang Mo and Mu Qingxue remained in the venue. Their eyes met, and the atmosphere was slightly awkward.
Jiang Mo was the first to break the silence: “Qingxue, how about we… go grab a bite?”
Mu Qingxue looked troubled: “But my family is strict. The driver will pick me up after school…”
Jiang Mo’s eyes darted, and he mischievously suggested: “Just for a meal. We’ll secretly climb over the wall now and climb back before school ends. No one will know.”
Mu Qingxue’s face was full of hesitation, her heart in a battle between heaven and man.
Since childhood, she had always been the obedient girl in her parents’ eyes. Climbing over the wall to leave campus was something only bad kids would do, in her opinion.
But Jiang Mo’s suggestion was like a tempting Candy, igniting a never-before-felt excitement in her heart.
Finally, she bit her lip: “Okay… Okay, but we must be back before school ends…” Jiang Mo patted his chest and promised: “Leave it to me!”
In fact, Jiang Mo had his own little plan.
For an obedient girl like Mu Qingxue, who had extremely strict upbringing, to leave a deep impression on her, he had to let her experience something exciting that she had never done before.
And climbing over the school wall was undoubtedly the most challenging choice. Once she tasted this “freedom,” her heart would inevitably experience strong fluctuations, and the person who led her to experience this feeling would naturally be deeply imprinted in her heart.
During this time together, the two were often shipped by their classmates. Coupled with Mu Qingxue’s breathtaking beauty, mysterious family background, and extraordinary intelligence, Jiang Mo was unconsciously attracted to her.
He didn't know when, but Mu Qingxue was also attracted to this young man full of secrets. Perhaps it was when he treated Ralts’s hidden injury, or perhaps when she learned that he became a genius Researcher and a genius Breeder…
Jiang Mo: I’m coming clean, I, Jiang Mo, want to pursue her.
Mu Qingxue: 〃∀〃
