"When will they get here?"
Shu Tong was already seated in the resting area beside the battle field.
"Soon. My, Lin Zeng's, reputation still carries some weight."
Shu Tong simply closed his eyes to rest. He did not seek victory in this battle, only something to gain from it.
"Rush, rush, rush. What the hell are you rushing me for, Old Lin?" A burly, bearded middle-aged man strode over.
Zhu Zhixiang followed behind him.
The moment Lin Zeng saw them, he smiled. "Ah, you finally made it. There's a good show to watch, so how could I not hurry you along?"
"Oh?" Lou Kuang looked Shu Tong up and down.
"This kid has been stealing the spotlight at our club, so I asked you to come teach him a lesson," Lin Zeng said.
Shu Tong understood instantly. What reputation does Lin Zeng have? He just sold me out.
"Zhixiang, this is a good chance to get some practice," Lou Kuang said.
"Is that necessary?" Zhu Zhixiang asked.
"He's the top student at Apricot City No. 1 High School," Lin Zeng said.
"So what?" Zhu Zhixiang's face was full of disdain.
Shu Tong merely smiled without replying. This was not the time to show off, and fighting was not his goal.
"Zhixiang, you can use this to compare the strength of the county and city schools below," Lou Kuang said.
"Since Teacher says so, then let's do it," Zhu Zhixiang said.
To avoid any awkwardness, Shu Tong silently walked to one side of the battle field and released Weedle.
"A Poison-type Weedle has no chance against my Grimer." As Zhu Zhixiang spoke, he took out a Grimer.
I've finally seen it.
Shu Tong focused his gaze on Grimer, and Grimer's Pokémon Script appeared before him.
``` [Name]: Grimer
[Type]: Poison type
