Chapter 550 A Painful Realization
Chapter 550 A Painful Realization
For a moment, Li Shuwen didn't know how to reply to Cynthia.
Zoroark asked, puzzled, "Judging from your conversation, becoming a champion should be a good thing. What's bothering you?"
Li Shuwen stroked his chin. "Yeah, what could make him unhappy?"
Before defeating Cynthia, he could have easily targeted Wataru.
Li Shuwen nodded, "Alright, then I'll get ready to go to the Kanto region to challenge for the Four Heavenly Kings championship."
Cynthia offered Li Shuwen advice: "First, try to become one of the Elite Four in the Sinnoh region, and then try to become the Champion in the Kanto region."
"Your Goodra was already strong, and with my and Garchomp's special training, its strength will jump to a whole new level!"
"Little Adu, take him down directly."
If Garchomp didn't use Dragon Dance, and Lance, who hasn't completely deviated from his current form, could still hold his own against Cynthia.
But Cynthia's Garchomp not only knows Dragon Dance, but also Leap Attack.
With its six stats significantly increased, Lance's Dragonite has no chance against Garchomp.
Battles with Garchomp frequently do help Goodra transform from Champion-level to Champion-level.
Cynthia said, "Your participation in this Gym Ranking Tournament is a great opportunity to train your Pokémon, especially since it's one of the top eight gyms."
"While not every one of them possesses Champion-level combat power, they all have at least one or two Champion-level Pokémon."
"If you can defeat them with different Pokémon, you'll have a ticket to compete for the Elite Four."
After thinking about it, Cynthia realized that Li Shuwen actually had more than six Elite Four Pokémon!
"Goodra, Gallade, Milton, Mewtwo, Stupider, Kommo-o, Forsaken, Sirfetch'd, Bewear."
"Nine in total! Shuwen, your Pokémon training skills have really improved!"
As a longtime friend, Cynthia knew very well how difficult it was for Li Shuwen to raise Pokémon in the past.
Unexpectedly, after turning eighteen, Li Shuwen suddenly had a breakthrough.
In just six months, it has made such rapid progress.
"I'll give you another six months. Can you defeat Adu?" Cynthia asked, her eyes sparkling with excitement.
Li Shuwen spread his hands, "It's not certain yet. Do you really think I'll defeat Adu and become the Kanto champion?"
"How about we get married after I become the Kanto champion?"
Cynthia jumped up immediately, "That won't do!"
"I'm your husband, listen to me, I'll give you six months. Whether it works out or not, we'll get married next spring!"
Zoroark's eyes widened. "Aren't you two going a bit too far?"
Although she had never been outside, she and Wu Si had watched human movies in the villa.
Of course, I know that my husband should normally be a man.
But the fact that Cynthia is her husband makes Zoroark wonder if humanity in this era has become so perverse.
Next spring, Li Shuwen will think back to the first time he truly met Cynthia.
"February 14th?"
Cynthia looked at Li Shuwen and smiled knowingly.
"Yes, that was the day."
A fighting spirit ignited in Li Shuwen's eyes. "Looks like I need to start working hard!"
Hirona chuckled inwardly. There were only six months left. She wanted to see how Li Shuwen would avoid wearing a wedding dress!
Li Shuwen squatted down, rubbed Eevee's head, and asked, "If I were to persuade the Umbreon to let you study under her for a while..."
"Are you willing?"
Ibu nodded vigorously, "Bui!"
First it was Umbreon from Pear Blossom, then it was Umbreon from Misty Forest, which made Eevee fully realize the power of Umbreon.
Of course, Eevee isn't saying that Sylveon Pokémon aren't strong.
The fairy spirits are strong, but they don't have the same sense of power as the moon spirits.
It couldn't touch Ibrahimovic's soul.
"Alright, I'll go talk to the moon elf about your training now. You go back with Cynthia and finish today's training."
Eevee nodded vigorously, already looking forward to what earth-shattering skills Umbreon would teach him!
Cynthia immediately saw what Li Shuwen was up to.
"Let's go, Eevee, let's go back and train with Glaceon."
Perfect timing, let the Ice Spirit give Eevee a little more stimulation.
Pokémon's innate nature is similar to how a boat is meant to sail on water; it's not impossible to force it onto land.
However, modifying the tires would not only waste the boat's functionality but also require twice the effort.
The Ice Elf is on the path that suits her best, so she is progressing very quickly.
Although they are not yet comparable to Cynthia's top-tier troops, they already possess gym-level strength, completely surpassing Ibra.
Cynthia doesn't really like letting Pokémon decide their future path for decades based on a momentary whim.
Because as time goes by, things that you used to like will mostly become things you don't like anymore.
But most of the things that work for Pokémon have worked for them for the past few decades.
With Zoroark by his side, and Zoroark acting as an intermediary, Li Shuwen was better able to persuade Umbreon to accept Eevee as an exchange student.
The moon elf's territory was not far from where he fought the fairy elf.
The Umbreon, which had just made a grand and stylish exit, was now lying in its nest, munching on the Orange Berry that Eevee had collected to recover its strength.
The moon elves also chewed up herbs and applied them to their wounds.
Finally, there was a moon elf, whose golden halo on its forehead emitted moonlight, illuminating the body of the moon elf lord.
With these three measures combined, the Moon Elf's overexerted body quickly recovered.
Then the Moon Elf stood up and used the Moonlight skill to absorb energy and restore her stamina.
The life force of the moon spirits became even more mellow in this process.
Zoroark was somewhat surprised. "Could this be how the Moon Elf is enhancing his physique?"
"Therefore, his daily challenges against the fairies and spirits are not only for fame, but also to hone his physical abilities!"
Li Shuwen nodded in agreement, "That's right, I already noticed some clues about that during the battle just now."
"It will probably be very difficult for Eevee to become as powerful as Umbreon."
A glint flashed in Zoroark's eyes as he asked in shock, "So, you sent Eevee away to train just so Umbreon could give Eevee a break?"
Li Shuwen shook his head and said, "No, I hope that Umbreon can use his standards to demand things of Eevee. No matter how much Eevee wants to give up, it must be made to persevere."
The moon elf had just recovered from her injuries when she arrived in front of a huge granite rock.
The Moon Elf didn't use any skills; it simply used its head, claws, tail, and back to ram into the Flower Rock Monster.
He smashed himself so hard that his skin was torn and bleeding before stopping to eat the orange fruit and using the Moonlight skill to heal half of his injuries.
Then, an Eevee walked up to Umbreon and used Charm, the pink notes slowly eroding Umbreon's wounds.
Zoroark gasped. "To combat the erosion of fairy energy, he actually used this method to actively break through the defenses and then attack with fairy-attribute skills."
"Not only do you train the surface, but you also train the deeper parts. What incredible willpower."
Even Zoroark, who cultivated the principle of revenge, was ashamed of his own inferiority.
Li Shuwen waited until the Moon Elf finished this round of training before stepping forward.
"Moon Fairy, I just watched your battle with the Fairy Fairy, and the willpower you showed was truly admirable."
"I also raised an Eevee. It admires your battles and hopes to learn from you for a while."
The moon elf frowned slightly; he had no time to waste on helping others look after children.
Li Shuwen began, "While the oranges and herbs can help you recover, they contain many unnecessary ingredients."
"Eating this will slow down your digestion and affect your training efficiency. Try this instead."
Li Shuwen took out a bottle of high-energy supplements.
Zoroark nodded and explained Li Shuwen's situation to the moon elf.
With Zoroark as his guarantor, the Moon Elf drank the high-energy supplement that Li Shuwen handed her in one gulp.
As soon as she drank it, the Moon Elf could feel as if a fire was burning in her stomach. The energy contained in the high-energy supplement spread rapidly throughout the Moon Elf's body like flames.
It nourishes every cell of the Moon Spirit's body, which is starving and thirsty.
The Moon Elf roughly calculated that if he had three bottles of such high-energy supplements a day, his progress speed could be increased by at least half.
Without excellent spiritual roots, one can only make up for it through hard work and elixirs.
The same applies to the Pokémon world.
Of course, being able to reach the level of a Moon Elf through hard work is also a kind of talent.
Li Shuwen said, "As long as you can get Ibrahimovic to follow your standards and stick to it for one day, I'll give you five bottles of high-energy supplements."
"Besides using it for your own training, you can also share it with the Umbreons and Eevee around you. Of course, you will also need to provide me with some materials to make high-energy supplements."
Li Shuwen offered so much that Umbreon readily agreed to accept Eevee.
He will definitely hold Ibrahimovic to the strictest standards.
Li Shuwen said, "I will only observe Ibrahimovic's training from the shadows; I won't come out. No matter what Ibrahimovic says, you must make him continue."
This is the training that Ibrahimovic requested himself, so he has to persevere no matter how tough it is.
The moon elf nodded, the simple-minded moon elf having no idea what deception was.
With the high-energy supplements available, he can easily mobilize everyone to help Ibrahimovic grow.
Li Shuwen took out another bottle of high-energy supplement. Umbreon called over the Eevee and Umbreon training around him to share the supplement.
Although each Pokémon could only drink one sip, they all experienced the extraordinary effects of this nutritional supplement from humans.
Other moon elves did not push their bodies to such an abnormal level as the moon elf lord.
Physical fatigue can be recovered through tree fruits and skills.
However, mental fatigue must be recovered through rest.
For most Pokémon, training for four hours a day is the limit.
Eight hours is already a remarkable talent.
Pokémon like Umbreon, which can train for twelve hours a day, are simply insane.
After receiving Li Shuwen's gift, everyone warmly welcomed Ibrahimovic's arrival.
When Li Shuwen brought Ibrahimovic over early the next morning, Ibrahimovic was very surprised by everyone's enthusiasm.
Li Shuwen left only one question: "Ibrahimovic, are you planning to train here for a week, half a month, or a month?"
Ibu decisively spoke, "Bui!"
Zoroark shook his head. "Little guy, two months isn't enough for your body. Let's do it for one month instead."
Zoroark looked at Ibrahimovic, who had a bright smile on his face. The poor little guy had no idea how cruel the training he was about to face was.
Ibrahimovic said the two months were entirely due to training with Glaceon yesterday, which spurred him on again.
Eevee felt that he was just a Umbreon without any talent, while Glaceon was a fairy elf with exceptional talent.
As long as he learns from the Moon Elf, he will eventually be able to defeat the Ice Elf, who has a better talent than him.
Umbreon coldly stared at Eevee, urging Eevee to demonstrate its power.
After Eevee used all the skills he knew, Umbreon coldly pointed to the big tree next to him and told Eevee to crash into the tree, without using any skills, just relying on his physical strength.
Umbreon was indifferent, but Eevee was easily swayed by that.
Ibrahimovic, full of fighting spirit, crashed into the tree, muttering to himself.
"Eevee! Eevee! Eevee!"
It's like eighty! Eighty! Eighty!
"Ibrahimovic, study hard."
Leaving Ibrahimovic behind for training, Li Shuwen and Soroark turned and left.
Hidden in the shadows, Li Shuwen asked, "Zoroark, how long do you think Ibrahimovic can hold out?"
Zoroark rolled its eyes. "He's your Pokémon, and you're asking me?"
Zoroark thought for a moment, "I don't think you, Eevee, who's used to a good life, can last even a day."
Li Shuwen, however, was confident: "I think Ibrahimovic can last at least three days."
While the training at the Veiled Gym isn't as extreme as the self-harming training of Umbreons, it's still quite demanding.
Especially the Staff-tailed Armored Dragon, which is actually not much worse than the Moon Elf.
When the two of them meet, they'll definitely have a lot in common.
However, studying at home and studying outside are two completely different mindsets.
Faced with these unfamiliar Eevee and Umbreon, Li Shuwen believed that his Eevee certainly didn't want to perform worse than the other Eevee.
Zoroark didn't believe it at first, but Ibrahimovic actually persisted for three days.
By the end of training on the morning of the fourth day, Eevee finally couldn't help but ask Umbreon when he would be given a new training session.
You can't just keep crashing into trees every day, can you?
Hitting a tree is painful enough, but to keep doing it for two hours in the morning, two hours in the afternoon, and another hour in the evening is even worse.
Including the time spent on treatment and recovery, I did absolutely nothing all day except run into trees!
Eevee now understood why Umbreon only used two moves: Toxic and Iron Tail.
It's simply that moon elves don't have that much time to spend on skill training.
Poison, Iron Tail, Self-Destructive Charge, and Vengeance are the only skills that Umbreons can train.
It's nothing like the Gallade that Eevee knows, which uses a combination of more than ten or twenty different moves in every training session.
Umbreon coldly told Eevee that the only way to succeed was to persevere.
If even such simple training cannot be sustained, how can Ibrahimovic, who lacks talent, possibly achieve success?
But considering Li Shuwen's high-energy supplements, Umbreon decided to give Eevee a training session.
The alluring voice trains your body!
Ibrahimovic happily went to receive new training, but the alluring voice penetrated his wound, and Ibrahimovic jumped up on the spot and spiraled into the sky.
pain!
It hurts so much!
Stimulated by this fairy energy, Eevee suddenly gained a profound understanding of the fairy attribute, and its body instantly radiated the light of evolution.
