The Prerequisites for Catching Pokémon
In all his years of life, when had Liu Changsheng been so thoroughly mocked? If his cultivation hadn't been sealed, he probably would have killed this researcher Li Ke on the spot.
Unfortunately, Liu Changsheng is currently an ordinary person, and he can't just give up on catching Pokémon. Although he doesn't yet know what level of spirit beast Pokémon is, as the first cultivator to enter the Pokémon world, Liu Changsheng feels that no matter what, he must successfully catch a Pokémon; otherwise, wouldn't he be laughed at by the cultivators outside?
Thinking of this, Liu Changsheng couldn't help but look back.
"Haha! Look at that Mad Scholar Laozi's expression, it's hilarious!" The Bookstore was filled with laughter. Everyone still vividly remembered Liu Changsheng's Liu Changsheng behavior just now, and seeing him get his comeuppance was naturally a source of great joy for everyone.
"However, these so-called Pokémon need to be caught with Poké Ball, which cost ten gold coins to buy. This Mad Scholar has no money, so how is he going to get those Poké Ball?" After laughing, some cultivators began to ponder the problem Liu Changsheng was currently facing.
Although it's Liu Changsheng's now entering the Pokémon world, the Pokémon book is already available in the Mysterious Bookstore, and it seems quite easy to enter this Book World. Everyone can imagine that this book will become a phenomenal hit. Any cultivator who can buy a special number to enter the Bookstore should have a chance to enter the Pokémon world. If this storyline continues like this, then when they enter, they will encounter the same problem.
"There must be some way for him to get gold coins, right? Otherwise, why go in? Just for sightseeing?" one cultivator Analytic.
The purpose of entering the world in the book has already been clearly stated by the Li Ke: to allow outsiders to obtain the sprites. Since the purpose is there, there will naturally be a corresponding method for outsiders to complete this task; otherwise, there would be no need for this purpose.
The practitioners all nodded in agreement, agreeing that the practitioner's Analytic was quite accurate.
The dialogue continues within the scene.
Liu Changsheng turned his head, suppressing his urge to kill Li Ke, and asked in a deep voice, "Then may I ask how I can obtain ten gold coins?"
Clearly, Liu Changsheng had guessed that since Li Ke had been talking to him and had already told him the purpose of coming to this world, he certainly wouldn't let him leave empty-handed without having done anything. There must be another way.
Sure enough, upon hearing Liu Changsheng's question, Li Ke slapped his forehead and said, "Of course! You can choose to become my temporary employee and work for me for one day. After one day, you will receive a corresponding salary of ten gold coins. How about that? That's a high salary!"
Li Ke's meaning is very clear: work for Li Ke!
Liu Changsheng stared at Li Ke. If looks could kill, Li Ke would have died a thousand times over! How could a dignified Spirit Venerable like him have to work for someone else? And only get ten gold coins a day? Wasn't this an insult to the name Liu Changsheng?
"No!" Liu Changsheng clenched his fists under his sleeves and said with a gloomy face.
This is no longer just a simple job; it's a matter of dignity! Especially since Liu Changsheng knows there's a large group of cultivators watching him from outside, he's even less likely to bow down for ten gold coins.
"Then I can only express my regret." Li Ke shrugged, not annoyed, put away the Poké Ball, walked to a tree, lay down and took a nap.
"Oh, right, you have another option: tell me you want to go back, and I'll take you back to where you were before. I'm going to rest for a bit. Remember to let me know when you've made up your mind." Li Ke stretched comfortably, leaned against the tree, and closed his eyes.
Liu Changsheng stared at Li Ke with a gloomy face, without saying a word.
"What an idiot." Seeing the plot reach a stalemate, the cultivators inside and outside the Bookstore began to discuss it again.
"He's got ambitions that are too high, but he's too proud to admit he's broke. All he does is put on airs," one cultivator couldn't help but complain.
"Exactly! If you're not willing to lower yourself, then come out and let us in! Ten gold coins a day, I can bankrupt that guy Li Ke."
"..."
Ma Feifei watched the plot with great interest. According to the plot, whether Liu Changsheng could move on to the next step should be a decision point for him. If he was unwilling to lower himself to work, he would definitely not be able to obtain Poké Ball. Without Poké Ball, he would naturally not be able to catch Pokémon, and the final outcome would probably be that he would be sent back to this world.
Actually, this situation isn't a particularly difficult choice. Ma Feifei thinks most cultivators would choose to work for Li Ke for a day to earn ten gold coins to buy a Poké Ball and then catch Pokémon. The problem is that Liu Changsheng is too arrogant, as evidenced by his confrontation with everyone in the Bookstore. So, getting Liu Changsheng to lower himself and work for Li Ke is quite difficult.
"Hey~ Qingyang! What do you think you would do if you were in this situation?" Ma Feifei asked Yun Qingyang, who was standing to the side watching the plot.
The girl seemed very interested in the projection and was watching it intently.
Upon hearing Ma Feifei's question, Yun Qingyang glanced at Ma Feifei and said, "If there's money to be made, why not?"
"..." Ma Feifei was speechless, and then felt like an idiot. He had thought that Yun Qingyang, as a noble Dragon Clan with the cultivation of the Spirit Saint Stage Eight, should be even more arrogant than Liu Changsheng; but after hearing Yun Qingyang's answer, Ma Feifei realized that Yun Qingyang was indeed arrogant, but damn it, she was greedy for money!
Discussing this kind of issue with a greedy dragon? Forget about it.
"When will you let me in?" Yun Qingyang suddenly asked.
She developed a great interest in Pokémon, even more so than in the Diamond Sutra.
Ma Feifei was a little confused and replied, "What are you going in there for? That's where you catch Pokémon."
Yun Qingyang is a dragon, which seems to be the same species as the elves, right? Why would a dragon want to raise elves? What's going on here?
"I want to." Sure enough, Yun Qingyang really wanted to catch the Pokémon.
"Let's try it later, you should be able to get in." Ma Feifei was a little unsure. He had never been inside before, so he didn't know if the system restricted the host and employees' right to enter the world in the book. He could only wait until the weekend to try and find out.
"I said that before." Yun Qingyang rolled her eyes at Ma Feifei and turned her head back to continue paying attention to the plot.
"Did I say that?" Ma Feifei rested her chin on her hand, looking in the direction of the projection, and said softly.
