Hearing the two of them talk, quite a few students nearby who didn't own Grass-type Pokémon and had never eaten at Ye Lan Restaurant couldn't help swallowing.
Good lord, a fried rice specially made for Grass-type Pokémon actually sold for 5 points a serving? And demand exceeded supply? Should they say Ye Lan had gone crazy trying to earn points, or that these Grass-type trainers were filthy rich? You couldn't usually tell!
No wonder there were people in the dormitory area every day looking to rob trainers with Grass-type Pokémon. It looked like they really needed to check it out today!
Arriving before the so-called Trial Tower, Ye Lan had to marvel at the Research Department's formidable resources as he looked at the building before him. It was completely different from the brick-and-concrete tower he had imagined.
Although the Trial Tower's exterior possessed a distinctly Huaxia Region architectural style, resembling the multi-tiered pagodas found in temples, its materials were full of technological and metallic flair. Solar-panel-like installations could be seen across many areas, giving it an intense futuristic feel.
The entire structure also occupied an impressive amount of land. No matter how Ye Lan looked at it, it was much larger than his master's laboratory.
Speaking of Old Zhang, that bargain-bin master of his had completely lost contact ever since Ye Lan returned to Huaxia Academy. Even Su Muqing had gone silent. Their research project had probably reached an extremely critical stage.
Besides that, several unknown digital display screens floated around the Trial Tower. The largest ones bore titles such as "Most Bizarre Clearance Record Rankings," "Fastest Clearance Record," and "Slowest Clearance Record," while the rest replayed recordings of some exciting clearances.
Because the screens were limited in size, each ranking could only display information on the top twenty students.
