Mega Evolution was Su Bai's favorite Pokémon enhancement system, but if it required consuming life force-and so much of it-he would have to give it serious thought.
Even with the Life Orb, Su Bai would not dare use it the way Ren Xiaoyi had.
Still, he could not rule out the possibility that only Ghost-types needed to consume life energy.
There was another question: who exactly was stirring up public opinion against him?
Although he was angry, Su Bai knew there was no chance of his Best Individual award being revoked and handed to Ren Xiaoyi.
The Dragon Nation's officials were not stupid enough to change the results over a few bullshit comments.
Even if the officials really wanted to change them, there was still Qi Shijun. Su Bai refused to believe Uncle Qi would simply stand by.
Even in the worst-case scenario, if something that ridiculous really happened, he could just move to Sinnoh. Nationality was a fairly loose concept in this world anyway.
What concerned Su Bai was whether, if someone on Ren Xiaoyi's side was stirring up public opinion against him, the people pulling the strings were from Magic City University or the family backing her.
At that thought, Su Bai called Director Li first.
Everything else would have to wait until he saw Ren Xiaoyi.
Once the call connected, Director Li told Su Bai that she had just visited Ren Xiaoyi on behalf of J University.
The comments online had not exaggerated. Ren Xiaoyi really was in terrible condition.
If anything, they had understated it.
Over the course of a single afternoon, Ren Xiaoyi had been transferred between C City First Hospital, C City People's Hospital, and the affiliated hospital of C City Military Medical University.
None of them had been able to treat her effectively.
