Pokémon Origins

Chapter 43: Prelude to Experience

The actual combat power of the Qianji Sect's training method is much higher than that of the same class. For example, the fledgling champion and the long-established ordinary king are both very buggy existences at the same stage.

"Qianji Sect? Uncle, are you practicing the Qianji style?" Su Xier opened her mouth slightly with a surprised expression.

Shangguan Chuang may not know about this school, but the knowledgeable Su Xier has heard of it.

In her impression, there are two key breakthrough points for this style, 50 and 80. The disadvantage of this style is that it progresses slowly in the early stage, especially before 50 affinity, and each breakthrough requires a lot of effort. However, after breaking through 50 affinity until 80 affinity, it is basically unimpeded. Only at the 80 affinity barrier will most trainers of this style get stuck at this stage.

"Yeah." Zi Chao nodded slightly, looked at Su Xier and said, "My current elf affinity should have reached 57, and it should increase in a short period of time."

After hearing this, Su Xier looked at Zi Chao in a daze.

Although Zichao is only half a decade old, his strength will surely increase rapidly in a short period of time through the training method of Qianji School! And with all the gym-level Pokémon in his hands, according to his real combat power, even a gym-master-level trainer can be on par with him.

"Dad..." Zi Mu couldn't help but speak when he heard this, feeling a little guilty, "If it wasn't because of me, would you have broken through the gym a year ago..."

Zi Chao was stunned by Zi Mu's sudden words, his expression was slightly moved, but he quickly came to his senses and said calmly: "No, it is very difficult to break through the gym level of our school. If I hadn't been suppressed for too long this year, I wouldn't have had this mental breakthrough when I received the news a few days ago."

This was true. After all, this level of gym-level trainers had troubled him for five or six years. Originally, in his plan, he would be thankful if he could break through the 50 affinity level within ten years. All the Thousand Machine Trainers he knew would spend ten or even dozens of years on this level. Some of them lost their main Pokémons due to some irresistible reasons during the breakthrough, resulting in a long period of accumulation of breakthroughs and failure.

"Yeah. I have nothing to do for the next month. If possible, I plan to work hard to become an intermediate Pokémon trainer."

Although Zi Mu felt better after hearing Zi Chao's words, he still felt a little guilty. After all, Zi Chao had been busy running around this year and had no time to train his elves.

"Uncle..." Su Xier turned her gaze towards Zi Mu and asked, "I want to ask, does Zi Mu... also plan to follow the Qianji Sect's training method?"

"That's what I thought. To be honest, when I first wanted him to follow my pace in training, the old guys in the tribe felt that it was a bit of a waste of Xiao Mu's qualifications. If it weren't for the champion's outstanding performance in recent years, those old guys might not have relented." Zi Chao pondered for a moment, slowly raised his head and looked at Zi Mu, "Xiao Mu, you are not even level 20 yet, and you have a second Pokémon. You can choose which training method to take. No matter what you choose, I will respect your choice."

Zichao's words were very cunning. He first expressed his own thoughts and then said that he would support Zimu's choice. Jiang Xiaoli, who was standing by, heard Zichao's hint and couldn't help but glare at him coquettishly.

Zichao touched his nose angrily. Facing Jiang Xiaoli's anger, he didn't dare to talk back. Everyone in the neighborhood knew that he was famous for being afraid of his wife.

"Dad, you don't need me to tell you, I would also choose your way." Zi Mu looked at Zi Chao and Jiang Xiaoli's "little actions" and felt warm in his heart, and spoke without any doubt.

He likes to pursue the upper limit when playing games. He has long been bored with the dull leveling up and killing monsters. Now that he has finally traveled through time, he must choose an exciting path.

In his subconscious, "Zi Mu" strongly expressed that he wanted to follow the Qianjiliu cultivation path, not for anything else, just to go against the Zi family!

Humph! After Zimu lost his talent, the Zi family no longer paid attention to him, and some even insulted him, saying that he would be stuck as an intermediate Pokémon trainer like his father. Now that Zimu has returned to the top, those people will definitely try to make him choose a normal training method and then work for the Zi family again. He will definitely not be able to do what they want!

"Zi Mu" thought very clearly that if he got stuck at a certain stage, his talent would not be used by the Zi family, which would at least make the Zi family angry to some extent. If he could successfully break through, he would be completely free from the constraints of the Zi family, and the Zi family would not pose any threat to him, once and for all.

For Zi Mu, it was even simpler. He liked to pursue the limit when playing games. He had long been tired of the dull game of killing monsters and leveling up. After finally traveling through time, he must choose an exciting path.

"Okay! You have better talent than me. Although theoretically you will suffer some disadvantages by taking this path, I will do my best to teach you some shortcuts I have summarized. Tsk tsk, from my observation, if you have good talent, it may be easier to take this path!"

"Humph! Let those guys watch carefully. Not only can I walk this path, my son can do it too!"

Zi Chao was a little excited and slapped his thigh hard, obviously very satisfied with Zi Mu's choice. After a while, he laughed a few times, stood up and walked towards the small garden. When he came back, he was holding two bottles of red wine that looked expensive, and placed them on the table generously.

"I'm so happy today that I've talked a lot. These two bottles of wine were hidden when Xiao Mu's mom and I got married. Today I'll take you to taste them!"

......

Time passed quickly. Except for Jiang Xiaoli who was allergic to alcohol and Shangguan Qi who was not yet an adult, everyone drank a lot of wine. At first, they drank two bottles. After they finished, Zi Chao wanted to get a few more bottles, but Jiang Xiaoli stopped him and replaced them with more ordinary fruit wine: "Hey, this is Xiao Mu's wedding wine!"

Around midnight, the dinner was coming to an end. Su Xier, who was reserved at first, and Zi Chao, who looked serious, gradually let go of their airs under the stimulation of alcohol. Jiang Xiaoli liked Su Xier more and more as she watched her lively and cute appearance, but she felt very upset when she saw her husband starting to brag.

"Damn it! Next time he drinks, I must find a way to glue his mouth shut." Jiang Xiaoli muttered silently in her heart. However, when she saw Su Xier smiling happily because of Zi Chao's amusing expression, she had to rub her temples, resisting the urge to beat her up, and cleaned up the dishes with Shangguan Qi, the only sober person.

"Uncle Zi!" Shangguan Chuang stood up suddenly. He was a little drunk, and he said in a daze, "No matter what, I want to train with you and the other two. Let's start tomorrow!"
