# Chapter 179: Everyone Here Is Trash
Tinkatink angrily snatched the Energy Cube from Bai Feng's hand and stuffed it into its mouth, making crunching sounds as it chewed.
However, Bai Feng ignored it and continued chatting with Dragonair, attempting to lure it away.
After feeding Dragonair until it was full, Bai Feng began giving it a Massage. Dragonair felt extremely comfortable, lying on the water surface, letting Bai Feng touch it all over, from the little horn on its Head to its white Belly, and then to its slender Tail.
"Woo~~~" So good!!!
In the past ten-plus years, it had never felt this good. Someone accompanied it to chat, played with it, fed it... and even gave it a Massage!
Tinkatink, watching Bai Feng touch Dragonair all over, was completely petrified.
How... how could he do that... He only touched my arm and shoulder!
For a moment, Tinkatink felt like it had completely lost!
Seeing that the Time was right, Bai Feng said to Dragonair, "Dragonair, do you want to come with me?"
Dragonair looked hesitant, "But Caesar said there are many Villains outside."
"But I can protect you! With me here, you don't need to be afraid of anyone! Don't look at me like this, I'm very strong!"
Saying this, Bai Feng used Psychic to stir up a giant wave in the Pool.
Dragonair had almost no battle experience. Although it was the Second Stage of Pseudo-Legendary, it was essentially a weak fighter. If it were to battle Bai Feng, it definitely wouldn't be Bai Feng's opponent.
Therefore, upon seeing Bai Feng display this move, it wavered.
It was indeed very lonely here.
Seeing the change in Dragonair's Expression, Bai Feng continued to entice it, "Don't you want to see the outside World? Outside there's warm Sunshine, green Grassland, vibrant Flowers... and many, many Pokémon and Humans you could become Friends with, but haven't had the Opportunity to meet..."
The more Bai Feng spoke, the more Dragonair was moved. Finally, it looked up at Bai Feng and asked, "Will you really protect me?"
"Of course!" Bai Feng said firmly, "I promise you."
"Alright then, I'll go with you!" Dragonair finally made up its mind.
Somehow, after saying this, Dragonair felt a sudden lightness in its heart, as if all burdens had disappeared, leaving only full expectation and joy.
The outside World...
Dragonair get!
Hearing Dragonair agree to go with him, a big Smile appeared on Bai Feng's face. He took out a Poké Ball and held it out to Dragonair, "Dragonair, please give me lots of Guidance from now on!"
"Woo~"
Dragonair lightly tapped its Head on the Poké Ball Button, and immediately turned into a Red Light, being drawn into the Poké Ball.
"Alright, we can leave now!" Bai Feng said to Masquerain and Ditto.
As he lifted his foot to leave, he saw Tinkatink still standing foolishly in place, so he couldn't help but call out to it, "Tinkatink, aren't you leaving?"
Hmph! Scumbag!
Tinkatink, having come back to its senses, glared at Bai Feng, then dragged its hammer and followed.
After leaving the Cave, when Bai Feng looked back again, he was surprised to Discover that Tinkatink was no longer following him.
"Figured it out and left?" Bai Feng muttered softly, unsure if he was happy or disappointed.
After catching Dragonair, Bai Feng only had one last Pokémon left to catch.
Regrouping and setting off again, led by Masquerain, Bai Feng encountered a Squirtle by a Riverside and successfully caught it.
Safari Zone truly was a great Place; rare Pokémon appeared one after another.
Having finished catching Pokémon, Bai Feng planned to head back. However, not long after he started walking, he encountered the crestfallen Wa Lian again.
"Wa Lian!" Bai Feng shouted.
"Bai Feng!" Seeing Bai Feng, Wa Lian still had a bitter Expression.
"What's wrong?" Bai Feng asked, riding Tauros (Ditto) forward.
"Sigh~" Wa Lian sighed deeply, "What else could be wrong? It's terrible, I've only caught three Pokémon so far, and they're all just Normal Pokémon. How am I supposed to play like this!"
Bai Feng checked the Time and found there was still some Time before the two Hours were up, so he said, "How about this, I've finished catching all my Pokémon, I'll help you!"
The Rules didn't seem to say you couldn't ask other Classmates for help.
"Really?" Hearing Bai Feng's words, Wa Lian jumped up excitedly, "Bai Feng, you're too kind!"
"It's getting late, let's hurry and start, or we won't make it in Time!" Bai Feng said.
"Okay, okay, hurry, hurry!"
Indeed, with Bai Feng's help, Wa Lian's speed in catching Pokémon increased significantly. And in pursuit of Quantity, Bai Feng didn't deliberately help her find rare or non-native Pokémon; basically, they caught one whenever they saw one.
Only now did Wa Lian truly realize how terrifying Bai Feng was. No one could escape his terrifying "devil's hands."
Any Pokémon he touched became completely obedient to him, flipping their Belly when told and never wagging their Tail.
Before long, the two of them successively encountered Da Fu and Shen Mu.
Upon learning that Bai Feng had already helped Wa Lian catch over a dozen Pokémon, Da Fu immediately knelt down and hugged Bai Feng's thigh.
"Oh Dad, please help your good son!"
Helplessly, Bai Feng had to help Da Fu catch some Pokémon as well.
Among the three, Student Shen Mu caught the most Pokémon by himself, catching 10 Pokémon on his own. With Bai Feng's help, the Quantity of Pokémon in his possession reached as many as 22.
Bai Feng looked at the Time and felt it was about right, so he said to the three, "Alright, Time is running out, we need to go back!"
Da Fu said with snot and Tears, "Brother Bai Feng, from now on, you're my big brother!" Bai Feng was already older than Da Fu, so Da Fu calling him big brother had no psychological burden whatsoever.
"Didn't you say you'd call me Dad?" Bai Feng joked.
Da Fu: ...
Wa Lian: "Hahaha~~"
Shen Mu: "Hahaha~~"
Bai Feng and the others were considered late in returning. By this Time, most Students had already come back, and some had even started registering the Quantity of Pokémon they caught with the Teacher.
Seeing this, Bai Feng and the four of them also quickly ran to queue up.
The Teacher's speed in counting Pokémon was very fast. They had a Machine in front of them. As long as a Poké Ball was placed in the Slot of the Machine, the Screen would display what Pokémon was inside the Poké Ball. Six Poké Balls could be placed at once.
Some Classmates hadn't even caught 6 Pokémon, so how could the counting not be fast?
Bai Feng and the others watched the Grades of the other Classmates from the side, and found that the Student who caught the fewest Pokémon so far was a girl from Jade Rainbow City Jade Rainbow University Affiliated Middle School. She had only caught one Weedle.
When this Classmate's Grades were announced to everyone, the girl's face turned completely Red with shame and indignation. She quickly hid among her Classmates, shrinking her Head and too embarrassed to show herself.
However, the Classmates who were jeering and mocking the girl were quickly reprimanded by the Teacher.
"What are you laughing at? Do you feel a great sense of accomplishment mocking your own Classmate?"
Soon it was Bai Feng and their turn. Wa Lian went first. After handing all the Poké Balls containing Pokémon to the Teacher, she quietly waited for the Teacher to count the Points.
"Rattata, 1 Point!"
"Oddish, 1 Point!"
...
"Vulpix, 2 Points!"
"Nidorino, 1 Point."
Wa Lian's Points were quickly tallied, totaling 18 Points.
This score was currently the second highest, ranked ahead of her was Li La from Ayase City No. 8 Middle School, Hoenn Region, whose score was 21.
Bai Feng remembered that she seemed to be one of the Battle Frontier Brains in the future Hoenn Region.
Li La was small and looked very Weak, giving the impression of being less than ten years old, but she was actually 13. She was a popular figure in their School, with many Classmates often gathering around her, like stars surrounding the moon.
Wa Lian's score immediately livened up the queue below. Everyone cast envious glances at her.
Originally, Wa Lian's total Points ranking was very low, but now with these 18 Points, her ranking instantly rose by dozens of places, soaring like a rocket.
After Wa Lian was Student Shen Mu. His score was even higher than Wa Lian's, a full 26 Points, surpassing Li La and taking first place.
Gasps of surprise came from the crowd. Those Classmates who had only caught a single-digit Quantity of Pokémon shed envious Tears.
Next up to be counted was Classmate Da Fu. He held his Head high arrogantly, his eyes looking down with disdain at the Classmates below, as if to say:
Everyone here is Trash!
Although everyone didn't immediately understand the meaning in his eyes, they felt inexplicably annoyed, especially when they saw his smug Expression, a surge of impulse to rush up and step on him welled up in their hearts.
"Sandshrew, 1 Point!"
"Diglett, 1 Point!"
...
"Drowzee, 2 Points!"
"Mr. Mime, 2 Points!"
Da Fu's Points were quickly tallied. His score was lower than both Wa Lian and Student Shen Mu, only 16 Points.
But this already surpassed most Classmates, so everyone discussed it again, expressing their envy and jealousy towards him.
Gradually, some discordant voices emerged from the crowd.
"Look, aren't those the team that got first place in the first Outdoor Activity?"
"I didn't notice until you said it, it really is!"
"Do you think they cheated? Otherwise, how could they always get such high scores when they gather together?"
"No way? How could you cheat in something like this?"
"You never know, maybe they're just really capable!"
...
There were quite a few Similar discussions.
This shows that wherever there are people, there is bound to be scheming and backstabbing, even if these people are only in their teens.
Wa Lian, Shen Mu, Da Fu, and Bai Feng all heard these voices. Their Expressions turned ugly; no one likes to be slandered.
Although three of them didn't catch the Pokémon solely through their own Power, it was done under the allowed Rules! The Rules didn't say teaming up was required, but they also didn't say teaming up wasn't allowed.
Da Fu had the most volatile Temper. Hearing others say he cheated, he immediately jumped out and pointed at the people below, saying:
"If you have the guts, say it to my face! What's with whispering down there, like Rattata in a sewer? Even Rattata are cuter than you!"
Someone couldn't help but shout loudly, "If it wasn't cheating, how did you manage to get such high scores simultaneously?"
Da Fu immediately locked onto the person who shouted from the crowd.
"What Method I used is none of your business! Do I have to report to you whether I pooped today, and whether it was solid or runny? If you think I cheated, then show me the Evidence! Don't spout nonsense without Evidence!"
Hearing Da Fu's words, the Classmates burst into laughter. The person who was spoken to turned completely Red in the face, their lips trembled twice, and in the end, they could only shut up unwillingly.
At this Time, the Teacher, understanding the Situation, also stepped forward.
"Everything requires Evidence. If anyone feels it's unfair, you can come forward and tell us, instead of casually slandering others out of jealousy.
Everyone present here is your Classmate, and perhaps in the future, you might even become colleagues. If everyone just speaks whatever comes to mind so casually, then where are the Rules, where is the law?"
There were actually others below who had the same thoughts as that person, but seeing how fierce Da Fu was in rebutting and that the Teacher had also stepped forward, they didn't dare to reveal their thoughts, as they indeed had no Evidence.
Having finished rebutting, Classmate Da Fu walked off the stage feeling refreshed.
After Da Fu was Bai Feng.
After handing all the Poké Balls to the Teacher, Bai Feng stood to the side.
The Teacher counted the Quantity of Poké Balls and looked at Bai Feng in surprise, "All 29 Poké Balls have Pokémon in them?"
Bai Feng nodded, "Yes, one Poké Ball was broken by a Pokémon, otherwise there would be 30."
Hearing this, the Teacher gave Bai Feng a thumbs-up in admiration, while the area below exploded.
"No way, he used all the Poké Balls? Does this mean he'll get at least 30 Points?"
"As expected of the first place in Points ranking, you know if they've got it as soon as they make a move!"
"His first place probably can't be shaken, right?"
"Now I finally understand why the people in his team have such high scores. This Bai Feng is basically a cheat for the other three!"
...
Then the Teacher began to tally Bai Feng's score.
"Ditto, 2 Points!"
"Ditto, 2 Points!"
...
"Eevee, 2 Points!"
"Vaporeon, 2 Points!"
...
As the Teacher announced the Names of the Pokémon Bai Feng caught, the Classmates went from initial shock to gradually becoming numb in Expression.
No more competing, no more competing, what is there to compete for? You can't catch up even riding a Rapidash!
While others couldn't even catch 10 Normal Pokémon, you actually picked and chose and caught 29.
"Dragonair, 2 Points!"
When the Teacher announced the Name of the last Pokémon, there was a gasp and uproar from below.
"Pinch me, did I hear wrong? Did the Teacher just say Dragonair?"
"You pinch me instead, I think my ears are also having Problems."
"There's a Dragonair in this Safari Zone? Why didn't I encounter one?"
...
For a Time, there was much discussion below.
"Dragonair? Who caught a Dragonair?"
However, just then, a discordant voice rang out.
