Everyone else is a trainer, but you are a swordsman?

This elf egg looked unremarkable, unremarkable among the many eggs. But in Feng's eyes, its champion-level qualifications shone brightly, radiating a light that overshadowed all the other eggs. Feng felt that even the goddess of luck was blessing him.

Name: Kapok Ball

Attributes: Grass, Fairy

Level: 0 (in the egg)

Ability: Heart of Mischief

Qualification: Champion

Props: none

Skills: Help, Absorb

Genetic skills: Siege, Trouble Seed

A champion-level kapok ball!

Feng forced himself to calm down, control the expression on his face and the trembling of his body, and pretended to browse the other Pokémon eggs and labels on the table as if nothing had happened.

After a while, he stopped in front of a fairy egg, hesitated for a moment, and said to the waiter, "I'll choose this one. Please wrap it for me."

"Why don't you choose carefully? This Pokémon will accompany you for a long time..." Xiao Ling said.

As a child of a prominent family, she knew the importance of talent. If talent was too low, not only would it waste resources, it would also delay the trainer's golden period of growth and development. More importantly, she wouldn't be able to accompany the trainer further.

Every trainer's dream is to lead their Pokémon step by step to the top, constantly participate in competitions, and eventually become a king or even a champion.

I imagined myself standing on the podium with my Pokémon, holding the trophy with a smile on my face, and receiving the cheers and applause from everyone.

Some people who rose from humble beginnings to success and later seized opportunities actually had their original Pokémon of low caliber. This led to the awkward situation of having Pokémon that arrived first in crucial tournaments for trainers only to sit on the bench, watching later Pokémon and their trainers shine.

"This is it. No matter what its qualifications are, I will always be with it." Feng said while gently stroking the eggshell, looking at the elf egg as if he was looking at his own child.

Feng's actions seemed to touch the softest part of Xiao Ling's heart. She showed a sweet smile on her face, and her eyes were full of tenderness as she looked at this scene.

……

Not long after, Feng and Xiao Ling came to the lobby of the breeding house to wait for checkout.

While waiting bored, Feng accidentally saw the Alliance Wanted Poster playing on the TV in the lobby.

Miss Junsha, a dashing figure in a police uniform, was pointing to a nearby mug shot and describing the heinous crimes committed by the wanted criminal. The man in the photo didn't look ferocious, but rather feminine. He had a pale face and dark circles under his eyes, as if he wasn't feeling well.

Codenamed Huan Yao, a quasi-king-level trainer, his main force is a dream demon, he has gathered a small gang, and he is bold and reckless.

This is the key point Feng learned from Junsha's story. Feng didn't care too much after seeing it. If Xiao Ling was around, there would be no need to be afraid if he met it, and Master Itachi would just kill it directly; if Xiao Ling was not around, there would be no need to be afraid if he met it, and he would run away if he could, otherwise he would be at the mercy of others.

In reality, if an ordinary person could be promoted to a Quasi-King level trainer, it would be considered a great success, transcending social classes. After that, they only needed to proceed step by step, keep their feet on the ground, and through the unremitting efforts and careful management of generations, they could gradually develop into a medium-sized family.

However, to be among the great families, one must at least have a top-level trainer. Some of the more powerful families have champion-level trainers as their pillars.

The top families belong to the royal aristocratic families with a long history and profound heritage. It is said that they maintain cooperation and communication with the legendary beasts.

A few minutes later, Feng paid 10 Alliance coins, got the backpack containing the Kapok Elf Egg, and left the Alliance Breeding House with Xiao Ling.

"Feng, is there anything else you want to do?" Xiao Ling asked.

"It's a little late today, let's talk about it tomorrow."

"Then let's go to the Pokémon Center to check in."

……

The Pokémon Center in Kaina City is located southwest of the port, very close.

Entering the Pokémon Center, Miss Joy with pink hair and wearing a nurse's uniform was standing behind the counter, talking to a trainer in dark green clothes in front of her.

Feng and Xiao Ling came behind him, intending to queue up with her to check in.

Only then did Feng notice the unusualness of this trainer.

The boy in front of him looked no more than fourteen or fifteen years old. Unlike Feng and Xiao Ling, who were dressed neatly and cleanly, this boy was dirty all over, with some dust and blood on his face.

On the stretcher in front of him, a large wolfhound was lying with its body charred black. Large areas of its skin were burned and it was dying.

"Miss Joy, please, please save my big wolfhound. It was seriously injured because it blocked the attack for me." As he spoke, the young man in green actually shed tears, looking regretful and heartbroken.

"Trainer, Chansey and I will do our best." After saying that, Chansey and Miss Joy pushed the stretcher away from the counter and headed for the operating room.

As the door of the operating room closed, the red words "In Surgery" lit up on it.

The staff at the Pokémon Center nearby took over Miss Joy's reception duties and said to the green-clad boy, "Don't worry, Miss Joy graduated from Joy School with top five grades, which is why she was assigned here. Your wolfhound will be fine."

After hearing what the staff said, the boy's expression relaxed a little.

"Please go to the rest area over there and wait for the results of the surgery. What can the two trainers behind you do?"

"Let's check in."

"Okay, please give me your identification."

Feng and Xiao Ling immediately took out their IDs and handed them to the staff.

At this time, Xiao Ling came up to Feng, staring at his ID card, and said resentfully: "I only now know your full name is Qingmu Feng. Why didn't you tell me before?"

"Oh no." Feng thought to himself.

He had only said before that he took a boat from Kanaz City through the Orange Forest, and did not mention Qingmu Feng's identity at all. He was even careful not to let Xiao Ling see it when submitting his identity card in the breeding house.

But this time he couldn't avoid it. Fortunately, the ID card didn't state which city Feng was from, otherwise Xiao Ling would have asked him again.

At that time, Feng would have to make up a set of lies to deal with it, and if something went wrong later, he would have to make up more lies to fill it up, which would not only torture himself but also deceive Xiao Ling.

Even now it is not safe. Xiao Ling's family might be able to find out Feng's past based on this name, and then Feng will still have to face Xiao Ling's questions.

As for revealing everything from the moment he was sent to the Sky Team research facility...

That's too risky and not worth the gamble.

Interests and human hearts are fickle. Before you have enough strength to protect yourself, you must be prudent and have limits when trusting anyone, including your best friends.

……

Collecting his thoughts, Feng returned to Xiao Ling's question. He had to think of a way to divert her attention, otherwise her next question would be about Feng's past and hometown, which would be even more difficult to answer.

So Feng jokingly said, "Why do you want to know my last name so much? Are you planning to be Aoki Aya in the future?"
