READ NOVEL ONLINE Chapter 24: ch23
In the monitoring room, large and small screens displayed hundreds of frames. Ninety percent of them showed the images from the cameras on the locators of the freshmen, capturing their exploration and battle processes to record points and evaluate them.
Each teacher was responsible for a certain number of students—maybe three or five, or even a dozen or so. In front of those second-generation surveillance screens, special personnel watched over them, focusing on students like Ethan, the son of a champion, or the nephew of an Elite. The treatment was comprehensive.
While the counselor Jane Chen was paying attention to Alex, she was also observing several other talented students in Class Three, including Wendy Taylor and the son of a gym leader. Just when Jane Chen was captivated by Wendy's battle, she returned her gaze to Alex.
She looked at the picture in front of her and was immediately stunned, surprised.
"Oh my!"
"Riolu?!"
"A wild Riolu?!"
"..."
For a moment, everyone in the monitoring room had their eyes on Jane Chen, their eyeballs widened in surprise.
"What did you say?"
"A wild Riolu?!"
"Where did it appear? Where did it appear?"
"..."
"Ethan doesn't know if he's nearby," Jane Chen pointed at Alex in the picture, beyond surprised.
"I just watched Wendy's battle, and Alex tamed a wild Riolu?"
This luck is just too good, isn't it?!
Seeing this scene, many counselors, teachers, and school leaders were envious and sad.
Riolu, after all, is among the top three Pokémon that Dragon Kingdom Trainers most wish to cultivate. Known for loyalty, bravery, and explosive combat prowess, Riolu gives a sense of security.
In the wild, it's almost impossible to see a lone Riolu, as most follow adult Lucarios, making them extremely difficult to tame. In the entire Dragon Kingdom, there are no more than one hundred Trainers with Riolu and Lucario, against a backdrop of 300 million Trainers, making it exceedingly rare.
For a while, the entire monitoring room was filled with envy, whether from old or young teachers, all envious of Alex.
That's Riolu!
"Hehe, isn't it just 1000 points?" The teacher who was paying attention to Ethan's activities focused his eyes.
It's unclear whether he was sighing or dissatisfied, but his tone was a bit off, which Jane Chen found prickly to her ears.
At this time, the big screen in the monitoring room displayed the points ranking in due course. With 4500 points, Alex surpassed many second-generation students and led all the freshmen, even creating a gap.
"Sycophant," Jane Chen cursed in her heart.
Isn't it just a champion? Is there really a need to pay attention to Ethan as if he were one's own son?
Or perhaps Ethan himself felt it was boring and unnecessary.

In the Sequoia Secret Realm, Alex naturally didn't know what was happening in the monitoring room. He was now holding Riolu, smiling and teasing the newborn Pokémon.
"Hi, little guy."
Riolu was small with a blue body, resembling a puppy. It had red eyes, black markings on its face resembling a mask, a blue tail, and a yellow collar. On the back of its front paw, there was a white lump.
"Oolu~"
Riolu opened its eyes wide, looking at Alex curiously and at Charmeleon, who had carried it out of the tree hole, appearing a bit dazed.
"From now on, you'll be our partner," Alex introduced Riolu to each of his Pokémon.
Charmeleon, the current big brother, is a powerful and mighty god-level fire master.
As for Jirachi, although invisible, Riolu's innate waveguide power could detect a soft and cute "little girl" sitting on Alex's shoulder.
"Oolu!"
Partner?
Riolu was just born, and its brain wasn't particularly alert yet. But it sensed that the human and the two Pokémon in front of it had no malicious intent.
"Try this energy cube first." Alex took out a Normal energy cube. Since he hadn't made Fighting-type energy cubes yet, he could only offer the most common Normal-type energy cubes, which most Pokémon could eat.
"Oolu!"
Smelling the energy cube, Riolu's sense of smell was highly stimulated, and its eyes couldn't help but brighten.
It smells delicious!
"Eat, don't be shy," Alex said, noticing the longing in Riolu's eyes, as well as a trace of politeness and shyness.
Alex smiled and handed the energy cube to Riolu.
"Oolu!"
Thanks.
Riolu smiled softly, showing a gentle and refined temperament since birth.
This blue puppy has a promising future!
"Let's eat." Holding Riolu in his arms, Alex continued his journey. The hatching of the champion Pokémon egg was just an episode, and his goal must continue.
Win first place. Fight for the pseudo-legendary cubs!
"Insight."
By the way, Alex checked Riolu's information panel.

5V talent! Moreover, the missing V actually reached 30 points. Just a little bit more, and it could reach full value, promoting it to a legendary talent!
I rely on the system!
The system is still the system.
"Although it is a champion talent, Riolu is given the most powerful talent among the champion talents!"
At this point, Alex was about to give the system a thumbs up.
The systems of other travelers either ignored the host or stumbled the host. But Alex's spike system is nothing short of charitable.
It's said to be a champion talent, but not just an ordinary champion—it's the top champion talent Riolu.
"Strong system!"
Alex was in a good mood. He even encountered several wild Pokémon along his path. Charmeleon even came across a group of wild Poochyena, which included several ferocious Mightyena. The leading Mightyena still held a stone in its mouth.
