Mind Master of the Elf World

Chapter 420 Martial Arts Bear Master - Tai Chi Grandmaster Form? (Seeking monthly votes!)
The quarterfinals have concluded, and Jing He has unsurprisingly advanced to the semifinals.

However, the way they won shocked many people.

One against six!

The opponent is a gym leader!
Although Kawu lost his position as the head of the guild for some reasons and said he was prepared to start over, Kawu's strength was recognized by many people.

Faced with such opponents, the fact that they all managed to win six games in a row makes it hard not to wonder who will be able to snatch a point from Teacher Jinghe.
Of course, the level of skill among the contestants in this year's Lily of the Valley Tournament is a bit too high, and the remaining contestants also have a chance.

This has led to a continued increase in attention surrounding the Lily of the Valley event.

However, something quite interesting was uncovered by the audience.

That was Guderian, who won second place at the Indigo League and was the only player to have seen all six of Jinghe's Pokémon.

Because of the Lily of the Valley Contest, the prestige of Guderian, the runner-up of the Quartz Contest, is skyrocketing!

Jinghe simply smiled and ignored the online discussions.

He is now more concerned about the condition of Martial Arts Master Xiong.

"Genga~"

Gengar stood next to Urshifu, touched its own head, then floated up and compared its head to Urshifu's, looking at Jinghe with some surprise.

He's as tall as me now!

Jinghe glanced sideways at Gengar's two feet, which were hovering in mid-air and still gently scratching.

You seem quite confident.

"Cha~"

"Gurgle~"

"Yo-yo~"

The Great Blacksmith, Charcoal Servant, and Young Gilas all looked up at the Martial Arts Bear Master.

Back then, all four of them were about the same height. Now, Coach Xiong has suddenly grown to two meters tall.
I'll jump up and punch your knee?
"Woo~"

Dragonite, on the other hand, was very satisfied with this.

Originally, it was the largest of Jinghe's Pokémon. Although Gengar was not small either, Gengar was fat. Now that Ursa has evolved, it is no longer as outstanding in height.

"Horr!! (●｀()●)"

Master Xiong, a martial arts master, crossed his arms and looked serious.

"Alright, stop posing." Jing He said, stroking the little nine-tailed fox.

“Huroo~(óò)”

Master Xiong chuckled and scratched his head, his previous pose completely falling apart in an instant.

This guide isn't just showing Rotom taking pictures, is it?
As it spoke, it slowly crouched down and began to snatch the energy cube from Young Gilas.

Looking at it now, who would have thought that this was the same martial arts bear that was rampaging around the arena and delivering brutal blows?

However, seeing how much Wudao Xiongshi was enjoying his meal, Jing He's expression slowly stiffened.

A bead of cold sweat slid down his forehead.

Oh no! Oh no!

Bear's size has increased dramatically. According to the equation "size ≈ food intake (except for baby kiras)," his food intake is probably enormous.
"Hoo-hoo~(ω`)_and"

The martial arts bear master picked up its empty bowl and looked longingly at Jing He.

Jing He: "."

really.

Just like when Dragonair evolved into Dragonite.

To make matters worse!

Following the hatching of Larva, the evolution of Ursa has added enormous pressure to Jinghe's already meager budget.

After giving the Martial Arts Bear Master another bowl of energy cubes, Jing He browsed its illustrated guide.

In fact, he had already seen the martial arts bear master's illustrations during the competition, but there were some things he didn't quite understand.

[Martial Arts Bear Master]

[Type: Fighting, Water]

【Special Feature: Invisible Fist】

[Mastered moves: Glare, Rock Smash, Hold, Charge, Swallow Return, Terrifying Face, Headbutt, Brick Break, Wave Missile, Water Jet, Water Combo]

[Mood: Joyful, excited (Who isn't a mythical beast at heart!)]

[Condition: Excellent (I have a great appetite!)]

[Friendliness: 100 (Do I look like Guan Yu, or Zhang Fei? Or perhaps... Zhao Yun?!)]

The disease has reached a critical stage.

However, what intrigued Jinghe was...

Why did the bear apprentice eventually evolve into a martial arts bear master who uses combo attacks?

Because during the competition, the opponent was a specialist in fire-type attacks.
As for why the bear apprentice could evolve, he wasn't surprised.

After all, there had been some signs before, and Xiong's apprentice had long been proficient in the secrets of the One-Hit Style and the Combo Style.

Other bear disciples need to climb the Twin Fist Tower and browse the scrolls before they can evolve because they need to learn the two great mysteries through the scrolls.

After all.

What the bear apprentice needs to evolve is not climbing towers and browsing scrolls, but the profound mysteries within those scrolls.

Jinghe suddenly remembered.

"Coach Xiong, aren't you sleepy today?"

Coach Xiong, who is usually sleepy, seems to have not slept all day today.

No sooner had he spoken than Martial Arts Master Xiong let out a long yawn, his eyes glistening with tears.

"Ai-yi~~"

The caretaker, who was cleaning the room nearby, said that Coach Bear had asked them for two cups of coffee this morning because he knew it was his turn to play.

Jinghe had a strange expression, saying that Coach Xiong had been so excited all day.

"Huroo~zzZ" Martial Arts Bear Master closed his eyes and fell asleep.

But as soon as it fell asleep, all the little guys, including Jinghe, turned their attention to it.

I saw.

With snot bubbles hanging from its nose, it looked particularly serious, exuding a fierce aura. Then it walked to the side by itself and waved its fist at the air.

Goodness, that punch!
With a single punch, accompanied by a gust of wind, a fist-shaped mark suddenly appeared on the wall several meters away.

"Hulu.zzZ"

Seemingly realizing that if he continued fighting like this, he might demolish the house, and Jing He would not let him off the hook, he retreated a few meters before continuing to practice his boxing.

But with each punch, a sharp aura inevitably emanated from it.

"Genga~(ω`)?"

Gengar rested its chin on its hand, seemingly lost in thought.

Logically speaking, as a Ghost-type Pokémon, it should be least afraid of punches.

But for some reason, it now felt threatened by Coach Xiong's fist.

But Jinghe understood the reason.

He discovered that the information in the Martial Arts Bear Master's encyclopedia had changed after the bear fell asleep.

The original Fighting and Water types have been changed to Fighting and Dark types!
Furthermore, moves such as continuous water strikes and water jets have been transformed into Dark Strike and Surprise Attack.

Good guy!
Tiga changes form?!

"It feels like Master Ma is hiding something from me."

Jinghe murmured.

However, in fact, the two forms of the Martial Arts Urshifu are almost identical in appearance and base stat distribution, and their moves are derived from the profound techniques they have practiced. The only somewhat surprising difference is their attributes.

"So, the reason why Coach Xiong is more focused when he's asleep is because he practices a one-hit-kill style while asleep, while he's more active when he's awake is because he practices a combo style when he's awake?"

It's like having a split personality.

Cough, Xiong Ge.

Then a bold idea suddenly popped into his mind.

If the two states of Martial Arts Bear Master are merged, and the two profound mysteries of hardness and softness are combined into a new profound mystery, will a new form be born?
Martial Arts Bear Master - Tai Chi Grandmaster Form?
He then burst into laughter.

Merging two profound arts is no easy feat, and he's not a true "fighting master" either, so he can't offer any help to Martial Arts Master Xiong.

Moreover, the two profound mysteries cannot be merged simply by saying so; even Master Ma couldn't do it.

I'll just think about it.

"Cha~!"

The Great Blacksmith walked up to the Martial Arts Bear Master and tapped its knee.

"Hulu?zzZ"

Martial Arts Master Xiong stopped what he was doing and looked puzzled.

"Cha-cha!"

Give me your hand, and I'll make you a new pair of brass knuckles!
Not long ago, it made a set of knuckle dusters for its bear apprentice, but now that the bear instructor has evolved into a martial arts bear master, the original knuckle dusters are definitely no longer suitable.

"Hulu~zzZ"

The martial arts master suddenly realized what was happening and quickly took out his set of brass knuckles, which now looked rather small.

"Yo-yo~"

Young Gilas cautiously walked over, grinning as he pointed to the brass knuckles in the great blacksmith's hand.

This is no longer needed. Can you give it to me?
Then I watched as Young Gilas tossed the knuckle duster into his mouth, and after a series of crunching sounds and a gulp, he devoured it.

No.

Are ore and coal no longer enough for you?
"The Young Gilas Recipe +1, Metallic Edible, Rotom!" Rotom dutifully recorded.

"Rotom, Fruit Mixer Mode."

"Lo, Loto~"

Rotom quickly said:

"One more piece of information, Loto! The semi-final group assignments have been announced."

Jinghe raised her hand, interrupting it, "Let me guess."

"It's either Dakdo or Guzma."

“Correct answer! Our semi-final opponent is Guzma from the Alora region!” Rotom exclaimed excitedly.

as predicted.

Jinghe has complete "confidence" in his own luck, just as he believes in Dragonite's luck.

but
There really wasn't much to be surprised about.

After all, there are only four people left, and the probability of drawing Guzma or Darko is as high as two-thirds, which rounds up to 100%.

"It seems that in the final match, I will still face Darko." Jing He sighed softly.

"Huh? Where's Guzma, Loto?"

Guzma?
The guy who lost to Ash at the "Country Games"?

Although Ash won the championship that year.

Similarly, using Ash as a reference, Ash, who could be said to have brought out the ultimate in bond and tactics that year, was still brutally defeated by Darkrai and two legendary Pokémon.

Of course, using Ash Ketchum as a reference is inaccurate.

After all, Ash is like Pikachu, getting stronger when facing stronger opponents and weaker when facing weaker ones. He can shatter Mewtwo's shield with a single punch, but he can also lose to a rookie Snivy in the beginner village.

The main problem is that we still don't know what Darkrai's other Pokémon are.

As for Guzma?
"We'll crush him tomorrow!"

"How...how terrifying, Loto! Σ(дlll)"

1 month 22 day.

The Lily of the Valley Tournament semi-finals have officially begun!
