Pokémon: Forced to Become a Dragon Master at the Beginning

The next day.

Warm winter sun and cold plum blossoms reflecting the snow.

The weather in the capital city in January was unbearably cold. Xia Yu, a southerner, had wrapped himself in long-sleeved shirts and long trousers early on, and dressed like a thick bear.

Su Muzi also changed into a cute down jacket. During the early morning training, she quietly approached Xia Yu, staring at Xia Yu with a pair of smart eyes, with a curious look on her face: "Xia Yu, I saw the video you posted yesterday. Was it posted by you?"

Although Xia Yu didn't want to admit that he had done such a shameful thing, he still nodded.

He must not be embarrassed at this time. As long as he is not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed.

"Why did you think of posting that video?" Su Muzhi looked curious. She couldn't understand Xia Yu's purpose in posting that video. She felt a little... ashamed, but she also watched the video of Xia Yu's battle yesterday.

Xia Yu's Charizard and Lizard King are both very powerful, and are top-notch at the same level, especially the Lizard King, which is more than three meters in size and is almost the largest Lizard King she has ever seen.

In fact, it was not only Su Muzhi who was curious. Many students in the training class were also very curious. They looked at Xia Yu with strange eyes early in the morning. They couldn't tell that Xia Yu, who was usually aloof, was such a person in private. He was so arrogant.

Of course, what’s more important is that Xia Yu has become so strong without realizing it.

I still remember a few months ago, when Xia Yu just joined the class, everyone was secretly waiting to see him make a fool of himself, but I didn’t expect that Xia Yu has already caught up.

Except for not having any Pokémon above the Overlord level, Xia Yu's other Pokémon are really strong, and his Pokémon potential is also quite good. As long as he is given some time, he will definitely become a strong Pokémon.

"I posted that video because of you!" Xia Yu rolled his eyes at Su Muzi unhappily, "Did you find Xiang Hanli in private and have a duel with him?"

"Ah? Really?" Su Muzi blinked and looked at Xia Yu, obviously not wanting to admit it: "Why don't I remember this happening?"

While saying this, Su Muzhi was thinking in her heart, How dare you, Xiang Hanli, tell anyone about this.

"It's because of you that there is no master to challenge me. Such a battle is meaningless. I had no choice but to post that Douyin video." Xia Yu was full of resentment towards Su Muzhi. If it weren't for her, he would not have posted those shameful words.

"Really? I don't believe it." Su Muzi paused for a moment and quickly changed the subject: "By the way, let's fight again when we are free."

"No, it's boring." The two were already quite familiar with each other's Pokémon, and they all used the same old tricks in their fights. Such a fight wouldn't have much of a training effect.

…………

Two days later.

After two days, Xia Yu's video quickly went viral on the Internet. Such outrageous words from a scientific research genius naturally caused heated discussions online.

The comments under Xia Yu's video were divided into two camps. One camp supported Xia Yu, and the comment with the highest number of likes was: Everyone here is garbage. The accompanying picture was a picture of Xia Yu's three-meter-tall Lizard King looking down at the Flame Monkey.

The other group angrily scolded Xia Yu for being arrogant and wanted to challenge Xia Yu. The comment with the highest number of likes: I, Jiang Yifei, watched this video with my real name and challenged Xia Yu! Below it was a selfie of a beautiful woman with long hair.

Below this comment are all the same comments from other netizens.

"I, XXX, watch Jiang Yifei with my real name!"

…………

At this time, Jiang Yifei, who was far away in Shanghai, was a little dumbfounded when looking at the comment section. She didn't know who had stolen her photo and posted such a comment in Xia Yu's comment section, and it became popular inexplicably.

…………

Because of this video, there was an endless stream of trainers challenging Xia Yu. Wu Qianshan, the Dragon Gym Master, saw the huge business opportunity at a glance, and after discussing with Xia Yu, he decided to immediately announce that he would arrange two matches for Xia Yu, one on Sunday morning and one on Sunday afternoon.

At the same time, he specially arranged Xia Yu's battle venue in the largest battle arena in the Dragon Gym, and live broadcast the entire process, and started online ticket sales.

Wu Qianshan also spent a lot of money to buy advertisements online and produced a promotional poster for release. With Wu Qianshan's vigorous promotion, the popularity of the weekend match was ridiculously high.

With Xia Yu's sudden popularity, a challenge craze has been set off on the Internet. Many people posted a challenge video and @Xia Yu, trying to get some attention.

After all, winning or losing is not important to them. As long as they can fight with Xia Yu, they can become famous, and being famous means making money. It is not shameful to make money.

Faced with so many challengers, Wu Qianshan read through the information overnight, carefully selected, and specially picked two opponents for Xia Yu. The challenger in the morning was the popular online player Cai Panqiu.

Cai Panqiu is a big internet celebrity on Tik Tok. His ID is Insect Catcher Cai Panqiu, nicknamed Commoner Insect King, and he has millions of fans.

Cai Panqiu's family background was not good, and it could be said that he was born in a humble family. In the beginning, he could only travel around with a hornworm as his initial Pokémon.

Although his family is not well off, Cai Panqiu is smart and willing to try new things, such as shooting short videos.

While traveling around, Cai Panqiu filmed his experiences into videos, edited and dubbed them, and shared them online.

Because the videos he shot are very close to ordinary trainers, coupled with his humorous and interesting commentary style, they resonated with and were loved by many grassroots trainers. Once the video was released, it quickly became a hit on the Internet.

As his fans grew in number, he successfully monetized the fan traffic and earned his first pot of gold.

After getting money, Cai Panqiu never forgot his original intention and still insisted on being a bug-type trainer. He spent most of the money he earned on training Pokémon. His own strength also improved significantly, and he had more and more fans.

Cai Panqiu is successful in both literature and sports. Not only does he have more than one million fans, he has also become a powerful lord-level insect trainer.

Among all the challengers, Cai Panqiu was the one who wanted to fight against Xia Yu the most. He directly posted three videos to challenge Xia Yu, and the number of likes for one of the videos reached hundreds of thousands and even millions.

"Researcher Xia Yu, first of all, I am a fan of your scientific research, but after watching your videos, I feel that you do not respect us ordinary civilian trainers. I challenge you today to prove to you that there are also strong civilian bug trainers."

"Researcher Xia Yu, on behalf of millions of bug trainers, I challenge you. Do you dare to fight?"

…………

Xia Yu also watched Cai Panqiu's videos carefully. It has to be said that they were very inflammatory, inciting civilian trainers to oppose him. Just by watching his videos, Xia Yu felt like he had become an evil villain.

After turning off the video, Xia Yu carefully looked at the information sent by Wu Qianshan. Cai Panqiu has three main Pokémon, namely: Gigantos, Heracross, and Beedrill.

It will be fine as long as they are all weak fire. Xia Yu checked the weather forecast for this Sunday. It will be sunny, very good. God is helping me.

If the match between Cai Pan Qiu was to attract attention and popularity, then the second match in the afternoon was the real highlight.

"Chang'an VS the Imperial Capital."

"The battle for the strongest dragon secret realm!"

(I haven’t decided on a character for this dragon trainer yet, do you understand what I mean?)
