Zongman: Evolution Paradise Chapter 135

It was a new week, and Xu Lun was not sealed by the apartment’s covers. Instead, he was full of energy and came to the park for morning exercise.

As for the content of the morning exercise?

Of course, it was a capture battle to become a Pokémon Master!

As everyone knows, to become a Pokémon Master, one needs to capture at least six Pokémon, and Xu Lun currently only had three.

“Hanako, quickly use Shadow Ball!” Xu Lun commanded from the side.

Hanako covered her face with her fingers, tilted her head, and squinted at her opponent. Black energy gathered in front of her, forming a spherical energy that shot forward.

Her opponent, a Human-Faced Dog, used Fury Swipes, tearing the energy ball apart.

“Hey, attacking out of nowhere, are you challenging me?” the Human-Faced Dog, a urban legend with blue dog ears and a blue tail, asked excitedly.

Her clothing was quite revealing, with the most fabric being the collar around her neck.

Jorōgumo discovered that she was hiding in the park, only appearing at night.

Since there was no time at night, Xu Lun led the urban legends out early in the morning, preparing to take her home.

“If Shadow Ball doesn’t work, then switch to this move, Hanako, Superpower!” Xu Lun used a haphazard command method.

However, it didn’t seem to matter. As long as all the moves were used once, coupled with “hold on,” “get up,” “dodge quickly,” and “show some willpower,” victory was often achieved.

Looking at the battle scene, Hanako used Superpower, and the Human-Faced Dog used Crunch.

The Human-Faced Dog was fast; Hanako missed! The Human-Faced Dog’s Crunch hit!

“Hold on, Hanako!”

Hanako lost her ability to battle.

Xu Lun used Yinluo Garment to recall Hanako and whispered, “You’ve done very well. Now leave it to your other companions.”

Silently planning a “stir-fried shredded pork with bell peppers” for Hanako in his mind, Xu Lun sent Mary into the fray.

She was an urban legend he had personally trained, yet she couldn’t even defeat a wild one.

Fortunately, after Hanako’s attrition, the more powerful Mary successfully took down the Human-Faced Dog.

“I captured the Human-Faced Dog!”

Mary, standing beside him, also followed suit shyly, “…Mary…Mary.”

After enjoying an unconventional Pokémon battle, Xu Lun had Jorōgumo teleport them all back.

Before parting, Xu Lun glanced at the Human-Faced Dog’s attire and added to Sadako, “Remember to teach this fellow how to wear clothes. Hmm… a maid outfit would be good. If there are no catgirls, a doggirl will do.”

“No problem, I’ll turn her into a pet exclusively for master,” Sadako guaranteed.

In fact, Sadako didn’t need to do anything; this Human-Faced Dog was already an M.

Xu Lun thought to himself, a little annoyed, and then saw Yui Yuigahama, who was walking her dog, approach.

“Yahallo~”

Yui Yuigahama greeted him in her usual way, then asked curiously, “Eh… Xu Lun, why are you here? You don’t live nearby, do you?”

As she spoke, Yui Yuigahama looked around, as if trying to figure out where Xu Lun lived just by looking.

“Stop looking, I don’t live nearby at all,” Xu Lun reminded her. With a wave of his hand, the dachshund that Yui Yuigahama was holding on a leash instantly pulled its head free and lay down in front of Xu Lun, exposing its belly.

Yui Yuigahama, who was about to exclaim in surprise because the puppy had gotten loose, was stunned by this scene. She asked in disbelief, “Why is Sabure so well-behaved in front of you?! Usually, it looks down on people.”

Sabure was the name of the miniature dachshund in Xu Lun’s hands. It had gotten loose during a walk at the beginning of the school year, triggering the entire Oregairu story…

“With all due respect, the only person this dachshund looks down on is probably you.”

Xu Lun couldn’t help but retort. Sabure, whose belly was being kneaded, wagged its tail靈性地 in agreement.

Yui Yuigahama puffed out her cheeks and said unhappily, “’With all due respect’ means ‘knowing that saying it will annoy others but still saying it,’ right? Since you know I’ll be annoyed, don’t say it!”

Watching Sabure, who could effortlessly switch between spinning, shaking hands, and lying down commands in Xu Lun’s hands, Yui Yuigahama also squatted down and, as if jealous, commanded Sabure, “Sabure, shake hands with me.”

Sabure turned its backside to Yui Yuigahama, completely ignoring her.

Seeing this, Yui Yuigahama pulled out her ultimate weapon: the jerky she had prepared in her pocket because she couldn’t control Sabure.

“If you obey my command, the jerky is yours.”

With her last bit of stubbornness, Yui Yuigahama wanted to regain control of Sabure.

Sabure looked at Xu Lun, then at the jerky, and fell into a dilemma. It looked around for a while, and finally chose to rush towards Yui Yuigahama.

Before Yui Yuigahama could put her hands on her hips and laugh triumphantly, it snatched the jerky and returned to Xu Lun’s side, placing it on the ground.

“Good dog, good dog.”

Xu Lun praised Sabure and bestowed Yui Yuigahama’s jerky upon it, causing Yui Yuigahama to let out the mournful cry of a defeated heroine.

…

After accompanying Yui Yuigahama to take Sabure home, Xu Lun and she arrived at Soubu High.

Although the weather was far from scorching, the students of Soubu High were already showing their fair legs, which looked quite beautiful and were a bright, youthful memory of their school days.

Of course, if your school uniform was dark, baggy long pants paired with an airtight crew-neck short-sleeved shirt, then your bright youthful memories should be on the basketball court.

Yui Yuigahama poked Xu Lun from the side and asked, “What events are you planning to participate in for this year’s sports festival?”

She was trying to gather information so that her class’s athletes could avoid those events, using the “Tian Ji’s Horse Racing” strategy to win the class victory.

“I’m not participating this year,” Xu Lun calmly replied.

Yui Yuigahama turned her head and looked at Xu Lun strangely. “Why?”

“Because it’s too boring. Anyway, participating this year would only break my own record from last year.”

In fact, Xu Lun just found it too boring to control his skill level to participate in competitions.

And if he didn’t control it, it would be very interesting, so interesting that someone might suddenly run over and tell Xu Lun, “You’ve been pre-admitted to Cassell College…”

Except that it wouldn’t be a red-haired senior driving a sports car, but a suit-clad thug wielding a gravity gun.

The reason he participated last year was because Mafuyu Kirisu told him that breaking the school record would earn him a school scholarship.

“In that case, the strongest class in this year’s sports festival will be our Class F!”

Yui Yuigahama cheered, preparing to tell this good news to her Miura Group.

Xu Lun returned to his classroom, exchanged a few routine words with Katou Megumi, and then prepared to lie down and sleep.

However, this time, a finger poked him, preventing Xu Lun from falling asleep.

Xu Lun looked up to see Miku Nakano, the girl who always slept.
