Inside Exam Room No. 7, everyone was quietly writing their papers. Cheng Tian also picked up his test paper and began to read the questions.
Question 1 (3 points)
Caterpie is a common Bug-type Pokémon found in the wild. Its breeding cycle is very short, evolving when it reaches level 7. Which of the following Pokémon does it evolve into?
A. Spinarak B. Metapod C. Rayquaza D. Butterfree
Question 1 was purely a giveaway. Cheng Tian didn't even look at it, chose 2B, and continued to the next question.
Question 2 (3 points)
Diglett, as a burrowing Pokémon, can be both beneficial and harmful to agricultural production and life. Its benefits include helping to loosen soil, while its harm lies in gnawing on plant roots. Which of the following skills can Diglett learn by leveling up?
A. Agility B. Iron Head C. Slash D. Stealth Rock
This question was quite deceptive. Many people thought that Diglett, lacking hands, couldn't learn skills like Slash. But in fact, Diglett can indeed learn Slash by increasing its level. Besides that, it can even learn Metal Claw, Shadow Claw, and other skills.
A surprising knowledge point came up. Cheng Tian recalled the knowledge in his mind and successfully chose C.
Question 3 (3 points)
Flying Pokémon are good friends to humans. In ancient times, they were often used to deliver messages, and in modern times, they are often used for riding or delivering mail. However, there are always exceptions. Which of the following Pokémon cannot fly?
A. Dragonair B. Garchomp C. Metagross D. Groudon
Cheng Tian: ... Groudon: *, are you done yet!? Precipice Blades warning!!!
Cheng Tian rubbed his forehead. He didn't expect that even in this world, the meme about the only one of the Hoenn Three not being able to fly still existed... Although people in this world rarely saw these legendary illusory beasts, or even divine beasts, it didn't mean no one had seen them, and the legends still persisted.
The multiple-choice, fill-in-the-blank, and short-answer questions were all quite normal. Until a strange item was mixed into the test paper... Question 35: Practical Application Question for Life and Production (10 points)
Given that Li Hua rides a Tauros from point A, and 5 minutes later, Xiao Liang rides a Rhyhorn from point B to catch up. The speeds of the two satisfy the function graphs y = 3/X + |/6 {X ∈ Z and 50 < 80} within the first interval range and the second interval range, respectively. Find: Can Xiao Liang catch up to Xiao Ming? If so, when can he catch up? If not, what is the closest distance between the two?
Cheng Tian: NMLGB, you call this a practical application question for life and production? If your phone is really useless, you can give it to me!!!
Decisively giving up on this ambiguous, neither-here-nor-there, weird question, Cheng Tian was about to continue looking down when he accidentally saw Su Han smiling at him. When he turned his head to look at her, she lowered her head to write her answers.
Cheng Tian's expression was strange: "Why is this young lady looking at me without writing anything? Could it be..." An immature thought appeared... "Is she trying to copy my answers???"
Su Han had already browsed through the questions. The questions this time were very simple for her. After briefly writing down the multiple-choice, fill-in-the-blank, and short-answer questions, she couldn't help but turn to look at the boy who was diligently answering the questions.
Seeing him answer the questions so seriously, occasionally his earlobes would turn red due to anxiety when he couldn't solve a few questions. It was... it was just too cute... Just then, Su Han saw Cheng Tian turn his head to look at her and instinctively lowered her head. When she looked up again, she saw Cheng Tian still looking at her, his mouth slightly open as if he was saying something.
She could only make out about 4 words, which seemed to be: "No time left."
Oh? Is this boy concerned about whether she can finish? Su Han's heart warmed, and she returned a gentle smile.
But in reality, she was overthinking it... Cheng Tian had indeed said 4 words, but there was a slight discrepancy. What Cheng Tian said was:
"Not for you to copy."
Although Su Han had helped him before, an exam was an exam, and Cheng Tian still couldn't let her see his answers.
Seeing that Su Han understood his meaning and even smiled at him in understanding, Cheng Tian nodded with satisfaction.
Continuing to write, Cheng Tian quickly reached the last question.
Question 40: Mega Evolution (10 points)
Mega Evolution, also known as Super Evolution, is a temporary super-evolution phenomenon achieved in battle by a trainer and Pokémon with a deep bond, through a Key Stone and a specific Mega Stone.
Assuming an ideal-natured Mawile transforms its ability into Huge Power after Mega Evolution, calculate Mawile's physical attack value at this time.
Cheng Tian's eyes lit up. Mega Evolution can temporarily greatly increase a Pokémon's base stat limit, thereby achieving battles beyond its level or even against type disadvantages.
Cheng Tian remembered Mawile's physical attack value was 105. After being doubled by the Huge Power ability, it would be 105 × 2 = 210.
A terrifying physical attack value, capable of one-shotting many Pokémon.
"Phew... Finally finished." Cheng Tian stretched contentedly. He briefly checked it and found that, apart from those strange and too difficult questions he hadn't written, he had written all the others, filling the paper completely.
Cheng Tian nodded with satisfaction. He looked around and found that few people had finished. Cheng Tian felt a little bored.
But at the same time, he felt unnatural because Su Han kept staring at him.
Cheng Tian felt puzzled, "Is it because she helped me, and I haven't thanked her yet, so she keeps looking at me?" Cheng Tian thought.
If that's the case, then he just needed to thank her after the exam. What's wrong with saying thank you when someone helped him, especially a beautiful girl... Time passed quickly, and when the bell rang, the teacher's voice also sounded: "Alright, time's up, put down your pens, don't write anymore. The last row collects forward, small numbers on top, large numbers on bottom."
"Some students in the back are not being honest... Control your eyes..."
After collecting the papers, Cheng Tian packed his things. He thought for a moment, looked at Su Han in the adjacent seat, and was just about to speak when Su Han spoke first.
With a sweet smile on her face: "Classmate, may I know your name?"
As soon as she said this, everyone turned their heads, their gazes at Cheng Tian becoming increasingly unfriendly. "Uh..." Cheng Tian clearly hadn't expected Su Han to directly ask for his name, and he was momentarily stunned.
Seeing Cheng Tian not speak, Su Han continued somewhat aggrievedly: "No?"
"My *, don't stop me, let me at him!" "This kid is a bit ungrateful!" The classroom was suddenly filled with sourness.
A smile appeared in Su Han's eyes. "He looks so silly when he's dazed."
Cheng Tian snapped back to reality and quickly replied, "Yes, yes, my name is Cheng Tian, Cheng as in multiplicating."
"Um, thank you for helping me earlier," Cheng Tian said, scratching his head.
Su Han blinked: "That was just a small favor, Cheng Tian. No need to be polite. I was just curious why you appeared there looking so disheveled."
Cheng Tian was a little embarrassed: "Oh, that's because I was going out to catch Pokémon, so I was quite dirty at the time."
Su Han opened her mouth slightly in surprise: "Going out to catch Pokémon by yourself?" Cheng Tian nodded. "Then you really are brave, Cheng Tian. The wild can be very dangerous."
Just then, Bai Yun's voice came from the doorway, "Tian, the exam's over, let's go, Tian."
"Coming right away!" Cheng Tian shouted towards the door, then said apologetically to Su Han, "I'm sorry, Su Han, my friend is calling me. I think I have to go now."
Although Su Han felt a little unwilling, she still smiled and nodded, "Then please go ahead, Cheng Tian."
Cheng Tian nodded, "Then I'll be going." He quickly packed his things and ran towards the door.
Watching Cheng Tian's back as he left without any hesitation or pause, Su Han felt somewhat annoyed. "This guy, doesn't he have any interest in me at all?"
