Wu Jin and Liu Yi were quite pleased with themselves when they saw Yi Nanzi's dark expression.
They deserved a pat on the back for that little maneuver!
Hu Bin magnanimously forgave Wu Jin and Liu Yi for getting carried away and continued their training for the day!
Training proceeded in an orderly fashion, and the Pokémon were all taking it very seriously.
"Machoke, keep those punches going! Don't let up!" Wu Jin and Machoke were pounding the poor punching bag with everything they had!
"Cyndaquil, use Quick Attack and weave around those wooden posts! Go, go, go! Faster!" Yi Nanzi was working on agility training with Cyndaquil.
"Munchlax, use Rollout! Pick up the speed!" Meanwhile, Liu Yi was training his and Munchlax's finishing move!
Seeing them train so earnestly filled Hu Bin with satisfaction. After watching for a while, he took Vulpix to another simulated environment training room: the Psychic training room.
The Psychic training room was quieter than the others. Inside, the Pokémon Trainers and Pokémon were all meditating, sensing the abundant Psychic energy in the air.
Except every Pokémon Trainer and Pokémon there was floating in midair. Hu Bin had no idea how the room worked, but it could make both Pokémon and Pokémon Trainers float!
Hu Bin watched with a strange look on his face. The whole thing seemed bizarre no matter how he looked at it! Wait, weren't they supposed to be meditating? How had that guy fallen asleep? Hey, he was even drooling!
Vulpix was fascinated by the place and eagerly rushed inside. The moment Vulpix stepped into the room, Vulpix floated into midair!
Thrilled to be floating, Vulpix started doing the breaststroke in the air, spreading and pulling in all four legs and having a wonderful time!
Hu Bin's playful side came out too. He jumped straight into the training room and immediately floated up.
This is pretty interesting. It's so much fun!
Then he copied Vulpix and started doing the breaststroke in midair!
A nearby Pokémon Trainer who had finished meditating watched them, utterly speechless. Do they think this is a swimming pool? What a pair of bumpkins!
After playing for quite a while, Hu Bin and Vulpix finally stopped. Hu Bin said, "Vulpix, do what you did on the ice field and focus on sensing the energy! Let's learn Extrasensory as soon as possible!"
Vulpix nodded, then closed those eyes and began sensing the Psychic energy!
Hu Bin didn't know how to meditate like everyone else, so he could only keep floating there, bored with nothing to do!
He took out his phone and browsed an online shopping site, looking for equipment he would need for his street stall!
"Hmm, I'll get a little table. I can put the things I'm selling on it. One of those!"
"I'll need jars for the Pokéblocks too. Let's start with five hundred. I can buy more if that's not enough!"
"A thousand takeaway containers to start with. I have a feeling the Curry Rice will sell out! Hehe!"
"Hmm, I'll need a portable voice amplifier too, or I'll wear out my throat!"
"Oh, and a big pot. Otherwise, I won't be able to make enough Curry Rice!"
"A few extra insulated boxes for the Curry Rice. That stuff tastes best piping hot!"
"Hmm, I'll also need a designer to make a logo for the stall. I've got to build my own brand! I'll use a photo of Vulpix and me for it. Hehe, I'll call it Bin-Vulpix Street Stall! It's got both our names in it. Perfect!"
Hu Bin went on a wild shopping spree, buying all sorts of equipment for his stall. When he finally finished and saw that he had only a hundred thousand yuan left, he fell silent.
"If I don't start making money, I won't even be able to put food on the table! I'll have to go all in this time! Let's do this! Take a chance and turn a bicycle into a motorcycle!" The more Hu Bin thought about it, the more fired up he became!
The nearby Pokémon Trainers were all startled by him. Why are you suddenly so fired up? You're throwing off the whole atmosphere!
"You're really cute. Tell me what you're thinking about!" A fragrant breeze drifted toward Hu Bin, refreshing and sweet!
Hu Bin turned to look. It was Qin An, the cute girl he had defeated in the school tournament!
Seeing how close Qin An was, Hu Bin blushed. He coughed and said, "What are you doing here?"
Qin An gave him a coquettish sidelong glance. "Does your family own this place? Why can't I come here?"
"Uh, true. Your Kadabra is a Psychic-type, so it's perfectly normal for you to train here!"
Hu Bin scratched his head as he spoke, looking a little awkward.
Qin An watched Hu Bin with a smile, finding him rather cute. On the battlefield, he had been a swaggering terror who crushed everyone in his path. Now he was acting like a bashful young boy. What an adorable contrast!
Qin An's lovely eyes stayed fixed on Hu Bin, making him terribly nervous.
What do I do? This is so awkward! Why does she keep staring at me? Somebody tell me how to handle this! I don't know the answer to this question. It's too hard!
Watching the young man try to act composed, Qin An covered her mouth and laughed. "Why are you here, anyway? Isn't Vulpix an Ice-type? Why come to the Psychic room to train?"
Hu Bin deliberately turned his head toward Vulpix instead of looking at Qin An. Otherwise, he would embarrass himself by getting shy again. He had nearly lost his composure just now!
"I came here to help Vulpix learn Extrasensory."
Qin An's eyes lit up. "Vulpix is learning Extrasensory? Looks like Vulpix is sure to steal the spotlight at the Spring City Rookie Tournament!"
"Yeah, that's why we have to work hard. But Extrasensory is a little difficult to learn."
The main problem was that the principal had given him this one. Unlike the ones supplied by the system, it didn't come with an animated video, so Vulpix didn't understand it very well!
"I see!"
Qin An thought for a moment, then broke into a smile. "I can have Kadabra teach Vulpix Extrasensory."
Hu Bin smiled happily and asked with some excitement, "Really?"
Seeing his goofy expression, Qin An smiled faintly. "Of course. But how are you going to repay me?"
"How many meals?"
"Uh, how many meals do you want?"
"Hahaha, that depends on how sincere you are! I want something expensive!" Qin An said, giving Hu Bin a look.
Hu Bin patted his chest and promised, "No problem!"
So Qin An called her Kadabra over and gave him some instructions. Kadabra nodded, floated over to Vulpix, and woke Vulpix up. Then he began teaching Vulpix the proper way to sense Psychic energy!
Throughout the lesson, Kadabra kept turning to check whether Hu Bin was making any improper moves on his Trainer, Qin An. If he was, Kadabra would fire a Psyshock straight at him!
The Qin family only has this one precious little cabbage. I've got to watch her closely and keep that pig from getting at her.
Hu Bin noticed Kadabra's looks too. I'm Hu Bin, a man of integrity! How could I ever do anything so shameless?
Then he turned and started chatting with Qin An. All his earlier shyness vanished as he talked about anything and everything, making her laugh nonstop!
Kadabra taught Vulpix with a dark expression!
Vulpix was puzzled too. Why did this defeated opponent's expression keep changing?
