Pokémon: The system says it is a modifier

Chapter 12 The second selection begins



Another week passed, and the second selection of research and practice that Yue Chengfeng had been waiting for for a long time finally began.

Unsurprisingly, Tsukijo Kaede became one of the eight people to participate in the second selection with the highest overall score in his grade group, and the second person... was of course the hard-working second-year-old Shinno Ensuke.

The venue for the second selection is set to be in the open-air playground battle area.However, in order to prevent too many spectators from affecting the normal performance of the players, other students are not allowed to watch the specific selection process.

Therefore, apart from a few sets of tables, chairs and other necessary facilities for the judges, there is nothing else in the venue.

Yue Chengfeng took a deep breath, put Guisi's Poke Ball in his pocket, and strode into the selection venue.

Ransuke, who had red hair on his head, had already been standing in the field and waved excitedly when he saw Yue Chengfeng.Tsukishima Kaede also nodded in greeting, walked over and stood next to Ransuke.

Soon all the eight contestants who participated in the second selection arrived, but what Tsukishima Kaede didn't expect was that guy Shinsuke Kanehara was also on the list. He even raised his eyebrows proudly at Tsukishima Kaede and looked at him. Full of jealousy and resentment.

"Why is this guy here? Logically speaking, based on his usual grades and popularity, I would never believe him if he didn't rank among the bottom ten in his grade."

Yue Chengfeng whispered.

"That...I heard that, remember, I just heard..."

Ransuke next to him heard this and came over to explain: "The reason why that guy was able to enter the top eight is because he secretly used some not-so-glorious means to get the classmate who was originally ranked eighth to transfer his place to He. I don’t know the details, but you seem to have some issues with him, so you’d better be careful!”

That makes sense!Yue Chengfeng nodded, "Thank you! But don't worry, I have a sense of discretion."

At this time, the principal with a childish face also walked into the venue accompanied by several teachers. One of the teachers handed the principal a microphone. The principal cleared his throat and said loudly:

"Good morning to all students participating in the second selection!"

【Crackling...】

All eight contestants, including Yue Chengfeng, applauded, and even Kanehara, who had always been disrespectful and arrogant, was no exception.

The principal smiled and continued: "I believe everyone has been waiting for a long time, so I won't go into details now. Let me tell you the specific rules of today's second selection!"

"The criteria for the second selection are mainly actual combat, and the specific process is divided into doubles and singles."

"Eight contestants are first divided into two groups according to the draw, and compete in two doubles matches respectively. After each match, the judges will score the performance of the participants. Those with high scores can advance and then compete in one-on-one matches until Decide on the final three.”

After listening to the principal's speech, Yue Chengfeng didn't feel nervous at all, and even felt a little sleepy.

In his opinion, the only thing that needs to be paid attention to in these rules is the so-called "score", which means that if the score is high enough, you can advance even if you lose the battle.

"Next, let's invite the researcher appointed by the alliance for this research practice, who is also one of the judges for today's second selection - does anyone know who he is?"

The principal deliberately let it slip.

"Oh, is it my turn now?"

A powerful voice came from outside the field.

Everyone turned their heads and saw a middle-aged man in a white coat, estimated to be in his 50s or [-]s, walking towards them waving his hand.

As soon as Yue Chengfeng saw the person's facial features, he was immediately stunned. Although the overall appearance of the other person was slightly different from what he remembered, this face was not too familiar to him!

"Huh? It's Dr. Ohki!"

After Yue Chengfeng was stunned for a short time, ecstasy followed.

In the first-generation games and anime, Dr. Oak was a very important NPC character. He was famous for his rich knowledge of Pokémon. It is said that he was an extremely good trainer when he was young.

At the same time, Dr. Oak is also responsible for distributing Pokémon from the Gosan family to new trainers in the Kanto area. He is a highly respected elder.

Of course, Tsukishima Kaede was excited not only because of his love for the character of Dr. Ohki, but also because he was finally able to see with his own eyes a character he had only seen in games and anime in his previous life.

It's like the Paper Man suddenly broke through the dimensional restrictions and came to him, but now it's Yue Chengfeng himself who has traveled to the Paper Man's world.

"Hello everyone!"

Dr. Oki walked to the principal with a gentle smile, "Although you all probably know me, I'd better introduce myself briefly! When we meet you for the first time, I am Oki Yukinari, the director of this research and practice activity. Pokémon researcher appointed by the Alliance."

Yue Chengfeng seemed to transform into a fanatical fanatic, grabbing her arms excitedly, "Wow~ Dr. Ohki looked at me! He even said hello to me!"

Rensuke endured the pain, forcefully slapped Tsukicheng Kaede's hand on his arm, and complained: "I admit that Dr. Ohki is indeed very famous! But, you don't have to be so excited, right? Also, next time Could you please grab your arm?"

"Sorry, sorry..."

Yue Chengfeng was a little embarrassed, but the principal happened to remind him that he could draw lots now. Yue Chengfeng hurried to the judges' seat and took the opportunity of drawing lots to take a close look at Dr. Ohki's appearance.

Compared with the games and anime images Tsukicheng Kaede had seen in his previous life, the Dr. Ohki in front of him was slightly younger.

However, Yue Chengfeng didn't have time to think about the timeline. Now he only had one thought in his mind: he must fight well in the next battle and leave a good impression on Dr. Ohki!

I don't know if it was Yue Chengfeng's illusion, but when he was drawing lots, he always felt that Dr. Ohki was staring at him, and there was some reminiscence, encouragement and praise in his eyes, and there seemed to be some inexplicable kindness.

Because the immediate priority was to complete the second selection battle and then obtain the qualifications to participate in research practice, Yue Chengfeng didn't think much about it and just assumed that Dr. Oki had noticed his excellent qualities.

"It is recommended that the narcissistic second-rate host take a look at his brain. According to the calculations of the system steward, the host's guess possibility should be infinitely close to zero."

"...Butler, if you can't learn to speak properly, you can actually keep your mouth shut. You are just a second-rate person... huh? You really are a second-rate person!"

The number paper Yue Chengfeng drew was red with the number "2" written on it.Correspondingly, he should form a team with the person with the number "1" on the red number paper, and play against the two people with the numbers "1" and "2" on the blue number paper.

As luck would have it, the person who drew the red "1" was none other than Ransuke.After the red-haired boy discovered that his teammate was Yue Chengfeng, he shook the number paper in his hand and said that he was now stable.
