Pokémon: Master System

"Two years ago. Because of my failure in the last gym leader qualifying competition, I decided to continue traveling outside to look for opportunities to become stronger and prepare for the next gym leader qualifying competition."

"For us ordinary people, traveling... to explore the outside world may be our only chance to become stronger."

"It was during that time that I received a call from a long-time friend. His name was Kagetora."

"He is also a gym leader-level trainer. He has participated in several gym leader ranking competitions like me. However, after failing a few times, he gave up participating in the gym leader ranking competitions. Instead, he immigrated abroad and went to Settle the Honolulu Islands.”

"Kagetora now works for a security company in the Honolulu Islands. After he learned that I got the No. 3 result in the Dragon Hall Master Qualifying Tournament, he called me and wanted to invite me to his security company. While working, I can go to Honolulu Islands for fun.”

"Because I haven't seen him for a long time, and I just lost, I wanted to relax, so I agreed to his invitation."

…………

"While traveling in the Honolulu Islands, I encountered a... secret realm on the sea. In fact, it can't be said to be a secret realm. It's more like a time and space tunnel."

"I had no time to react at that time, and my body was sucked into the space-time tunnel uncontrollably."

"When I woke up, I was in a strange... world."

"A towering ancient tree, the leaves alone are as big as a house. All kinds of weird and powerful Pokémon live in this towering ancient tree."

"The weaker Pokémon live at the bottom of the ancient tree where there is no light. Only the stronger Pokémon can live on the upper floors and bathe in the sun."

"Pokémon such as the Four-jawed Echinosaurus and the Bad Eater can be seen everywhere. They are as common as Rattata in that world."

"In addition to this, I have also encountered quasi-god Pokémon such as Dragonite and Bloodwing Wyvern."

"It's just that their strength is too strong. Their strength at the king level and quasi-champion level makes it impossible for me to conquer them."

"I've been living there for nearly three months, but I only dared to explore the lower areas of the ancient trees, and I didn't dare to go to the upper areas at all."

"I guess there must be champion-level or even stronger Pokémon at the top of the ancient tree."

"In the past three months, I tried my best to conquer the Four-jawed Needle Dragon and the Evil Eater King, but I only managed to conquer one Four-jawed Needle Dragon and the Evil Eater King."

"I held on until my supplies were almost exhausted and I had to leave through that space-time tunnel."

"After I left, the time and space tunnel completely disappeared. I couldn't find any chance to go in again."

…………

It's very difficult to deal with the situation near the Honolulu Islands. That's not China's territory.

Xia Yu's eyes fell on Zhao Zhigang's face, expressionless, and he slowly said: "I understand. You said you have seven or eight four-jawed needle dragons and evil eating kings in your hands?"

"Yes." Zhao Zhigang nodded: "The two four-jawed needle dragons and the evil-eating king that competed in this competition are the two strongest among them. The others are a little worse."

"I want to buy the four-jawed needle dragon and the evil eating king from you." Xia Yu said directly.

"Okay." Zhao Zhigang nodded. Since he agreed to Xia Yu's request, he naturally made plans to hand over the four-jawed needle dragon and the evil eating king to Xia Yu: "It's just... I want to leave two for my son. Only."

"Yes, of course there is no problem." Xia Yu nodded: "Hanqing, I'll leave this matter to you. The Four-jawed Needle Dragon and the Evil Eater King will stay in the giant laboratory to try to see if they can be cultivated and multiplied."

"Okay." Chi Hanqing on the side nodded.

"Have you told anyone else about this news?" Xia Yu looked at Zhao Zhigang and asked.

"No." Zhao Zhigang responded in a low voice.

"Well. Don't mention this to anyone else. If anyone else asks you about this news, tell me."

…………

The sun is scorching and the heat waves are rolling.

Time has come to July, and the imperial capital has entered the midsummer season. The blazing sunshine makes people breathless.

The news of Xia Yu's victory had spread all over the country. In the blink of an eye, Xia Yu became the most popular genius in the entire imperial capital and even in China. There were countless people who wanted to meet Xia Yu.

Some came for the Dragon Hall Master, some came for the Gigantamax, some came for the Ultimate Beast, or all three.

"Xia...the owner of the hotel." Eve's voice sounded. She looked at Xia Yu who was lying relaxedly on the chair and pouted: "There is a dinner party tonight. I invite you to attend. It's from Champion Lu's secretary. Telephone."

"I know. Master Lu has already told me." Xia Yu smiled and nodded.

In recent days, he has pushed forward all the social activities he could, but he really couldn't push forward the social activities tonight.

Tonight's organizer is the current southwest region champion Lu Tinghe and Uncle Lu. Xia Yu can refuse directly, but facing the current champion and his uncle Lu Tinghe, he can't refuse at all.

"Who else is there at the dinner party tonight besides Master Lu?" Xia Yu asked.

"I'm not sure either." Eve responded: "They said the list hasn't been decided yet."

"Okay." Xia Yu nodded.

Although the list has not been finalized, Lu Tinghe has already mentioned to him that the people at the dinner party in the evening are all members of the Four Heavenly Kings or the champion family. Xia Yu doesn't know who they are.

"By the way, Master Xia." Eve continued: "One more thing, there are a lot of people calling recently, wanting to be your apprentice."

"Become a disciple?" Xia Yu waved his hand and frowned slightly: "Forget it, I still don't want to accept a disciple, it will be very troublesome... wait a minute."

In the middle of Xia Yu's words, a thoughtful look appeared on his face. After thinking for a while, he said: "Please help me make a list of those who want to be apprentices, and note their family background. Let me take a look. In addition to this matter, there are also Anything else?"

"One more thing." Eve continued: "That is, the application you submitted to the Pokémon Association two days ago has been approved. The Pokémon Association has agreed to renovate the Dragon Gym in the Imperial City and build it into the first in the country. A giant gym.”

"Yes." A smile appeared on Xia Yu's face: "This is a good thing. Is there anything else?"

“There are still a lot of chores.” Eve pouted: “Mr. ”

As Xia Yu's assistant, Eve has been really busy these days. Those who go through the back door, have connections, and have friendships all call her.

"He who can do it should work harder." Xia Yu comforted Eve, and then whispered: "Thank you for your hard work. Heaven is about to assign a great responsibility to this person, and he must first work hard on his mind, work on his muscles and bones, and starve his body. Come on. , you can definitely do it, I have to report to the Dragon Gym today."
