Chapter 103 The Brave Champion Journey 7
"Come back! Snorkelling!"

The elf ball in Zhenyong's hand emits a red light and shoots it at Snorby's body.

The Snorby, who was almost exhausted, returned to the poke ball with this red light.

Only Heracross was left on the ring, raising his horns high and showing off his might!

After taking back the Snorlax, Zhenyong was not discouraged by the loss in this competition.

On the contrary, after experiencing what happened to Riolu and the others, and having a deep talk with the champion Zhulan, Zhenyong seemed to be more determined in his goal.

For this purpose, he becomes able to bear more things.

As in the past, the true courage of being young and frivolous and unable to bear a little grievance seems to be gone forever.

This kind of mentality change is so sudden that even Zhenyong himself is occasionally surprised.

But a change is a change, and people will always quietly complete their growth under different opportunities.

"Good fight..."

In the end, Zhenyong just said so lightly.

Zhenyong's performance can be said to be quite mature, but as his opponent, Ah Heng doesn't seem to think so:
"Hahahahahaha!"

"'Good fight' . . . you mean me?"

"You are obviously a loser, why do you still have a condescending tone?"

"Senior Brave, although we are about the same age, to be honest, I actually decided to step into the Pokémon trainer industry after watching your game - because after all, you can do it, so why can't I?" ?”

"Do you know how long I've been in the industry?"

"in less than a year!"

"I now have 6 badges!"

"I have the confidence to get the remaining two, how about you? How long have you been in the Pokémon trainer business, traveling, practicing, and cultivating your own Pokémon?"

"That's the old almanac of the past!"

"How do you see my Pokémon doing?"

Hearing Ah Heng's words, Zhenyong frowned slightly. When he passed by, even not long ago, he was as rebellious as the young man in front of him.

Perhaps only by going through ups and downs can one make progress...

Although Ah Heng spoke poorly, Zhenyong didn't care. He just shook his head and sighed, regretting that this young Pokémon trainer went astray and took a long detour.

Even so, he still answered the other party's question seriously. In fact, he also expressed his feelings:

"Among the Pokémon trainers I've met, your Pokémon can be said to be excellent..."

"Hahaha……"

"'Excellent'..."

"These……"

"I bought all these Pokémon!"

"I just bought them at RPEX not too long ago!"

"This time I'm competing with you, but I actually have some ideas of 'testing the goods'. Hmph, the goods this time are okay...I don't need to ask them to return it again!"

Zhenyong was taken aback:
"What did you say?"

"All these Pokémon are you... you 'bought' them?"

Seeing Zhenyong's expression, Ah Heng also put on an exaggerated expression of surprise:

"what?!"

"You don't even know yet!"

"Fortunately, I still respectfully call you 'senior'!"

"How many of the new Pokémon trainers are still cultivating their own Pokémon according to the old system and regulations?"

"You know what a waste of time that is!"

"What's more, I have to accompany them to travel around, experience various battles, and take care of the mood of various Pokémon..."

"Trouble, trouble, trouble...so much trouble!"

"Now, RPEX company directly sells the cultivated Pokémon! These Pokémon have been specially processed, and the trainer's orders after the handover can definitely be meticulously completed!"

"You can even buy Pokémon of various attributes and states of various strength levels as you like!"

"correct!"

Ah Heng suddenly lowered his voice and said with a strange smile:
"I heard... these guys still have a way to get magical 'goods' that have been specially modified and whose attributes are completely different from their original racial attributes!"

"Of course……"

Ah Heng raised his arms:
"If you want to get these and do all of the above, you must have enough money!"

"...like me!"

Zhenyong was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.

Although he has been a Pokémon trainer for a long time, he still follows the method of raising Pokémon passed down by Pokémon trainers from generation to generation.

Establish emotional bonds, raise and feed reasonably, purchase appropriate skill and move learning devices...

Unexpectedly, Pokémon that have been trained and completely obey orders can be bought and sold freely!
Zhenyong didn't even dare to think about all that Ah Heng said:
"Since you bought these Pokémon, and you have no emotional bond or even familiarity with each other, how dare you call yourself a 'Pokémon Trainer' like this?"

"You didn't cultivate these Pokémon, so you naturally don't know their strengths and weaknesses. You don't know their strengths and weaknesses. How can you conduct targeted training to make up for their shortcomings?"

"Using this kind of Pokémon, once something goes wrong in the battle, you don't even know how you failed!"

Although Zhenyong is much more mature in mind than before, what Ah Heng told about the inside story among the so-called newbie Pokémon trainers still shocked him to the point of losing his composure.

"What are you talking about?!"

"The Pokémon I bought with money naturally belong to me!"

"Emotional basis? Targeted training?"

"Those useless things, what do I want them for?"

"Pokémon, as long as you obey the orders of humans! As long as I, as a trainer, am proficient in the tactical skills of Pokémon battles, there will be enough winning percentage in the game!"

"As for what you said, what if something goes wrong and the game is lost..."

"Of course it's easy!"

"The Pokémon that failed the battle just need to be resold! After selling, you can buy new and more powerful Pokémon from RPEX!"

Ah Heng spread his hands and explained indifferently, looking at Zhenyong as if he was looking at the dead bones in the tomb:
"So let's say..."

"Senior Brave... The things you pay attention to are outdated and outdated. The times are developing rapidly, and the wheels of history are rolling forward. Will the old system definitely adapt to the new era?"

Zhenyong also understood Ah Heng's general point of view at this time:
"Ha ha……"

"A new era? The era of RPEX?"

"I hope that in the new era, there will still be 'Pokémon trainers'..."

The two disagreed with each other, and they stopped talking further.

When Zhenyong turned his head to leave, Ah Heng stopped him again:

"Hey, hey! I said...you are so brave!"

"You plan to challenge the Suzuran Conference next!"

"Since you don't agree with me, give it a try, how about defeating me at the Lily of the Valley Conference!"
