Mind Master of the Elf World

Chapter 505 The Dragon-Slaying Youth Becomes the Dragon Himself (Seeking Monthly Tickets!)
"Teacher Jinghe?!"

"Is it really Teacher Jinghe?"

"Is Teacher Jinghe coming to give us a lesson?"

"I heard it's Professor Jinghe and Dean Xia Ka together!"

"."

Upon hearing that Teacher Jinghe was coming to teach them, the students of Shuanglong Academy became excited.

This includes Alice.

It wasn't because of Jing He, because she didn't go online much, and her understanding of Jing He was mostly from what her classmates talked about. She only knew that Jing He was very strong, but she didn't know exactly how strong Jing He was.

Alice's real concern was Shaka.

She knew how strong Shaka was because she had fought against him before and lost miserably; the two were simply not on the same level.

So she really wanted to see how Jinghe, the teacher admired by her classmates, would fare when facing Mr. Xia Ka.

Inside the Shuanglong Dojo.

Thanks to Shaka's arrangement, the students of Twin Dragon Academy had already filled the audience seats.

Unlike prestigious academies like the Razor Pokémon Academy, the students at Twin Dragons Academy are mostly children, with an average age of no more than 12.

In addition to the students, there was also Miss Officer Jenny and champion Adek.

"It's the champion, Mr. Ardek!"

"Mr. Adek!"

"champion!"

"."

Adek's arrival also caused quite a stir.

For these children, Adekel, as the champion, is the "strongest" in the Unova region.

Or rather, in most people's minds, the champion represents the strongest in the region, and these children obviously don't know what happened to Ardek.

Faced with the students' cheers, Adek appeared very approachable and even turned around to wave to them.

At that moment, a staff member from the dojo walked up to Adek with a microphone.

"Mr. Adek, could you please give the children a brief explanation?"

After all, it was a battle between Jing He and Xia Ka, and not everyone could understand it, especially for a group of children whose average age was no more than 12.

"no problem!"

Adek readily accepted this.

Adek is very willing to educate younger generations and give them lessons.

With Adek's explanation, the sensory experience might be a little lighter for the students.

at the same time.

Jing He and the tall and strong Xia Ka were already standing on opposite sides of the battlefield.

Xia Ka has a kind of imposing resemblance to a KFC president, but when he rolls up his shirt sleeves little by little, his whole demeanor changes completely.

However, Jinghe's momentum was not weak either.

To be honest, among all the Pokémon that specialize in a single type, Dragon is definitely one of the best types for him to fight against.

Ice-type and Fairy-type Ninetales, Fairy-type and Steel-type Greatsmith, and Dragon-type Dragonite can all fight against Dragon-type Pokémon.

A true "killer" of dragon-type masters.

"This battle will be a 2v2 rotating format. The battle ends when both of one side's Pokémon are unable to battle," the referee announced the rules of the battle.

After both sides agreed, the referee raised his flag.

"Please summon your respective Pokémon!"

Shaka was already prepared, throwing the Poké Ball while simultaneously crossing his arms.

"Fight, Double-Haxodon!"

One person and one Pokémon, full of energy!

At the same time, Jinghe also threw out the Poké Ball in his hand.

"Then, I choose you, Dragonite!"

"Woo——!!"

Dragonite flapped its wings and appeared on the field with no less imposing presence.

Wow--

Upon seeing the two Pokémon appear, the students in the audience gasped in surprise.

Dragon-type Pokémon versus Dragon-type Pokémon, this battle is going to be amazing!

Moreover, as everyone knows, Haxorusaur is Mr. Shaka's ace Pokémon. The fact that he sent out his ace right away shows how much he values ​​Jinghe.

Alice, sitting in a corner of the audience, clenched her fists involuntarily.

She lost to Shaka's Haxorus. She and Excadrill were completely outmatched, and after the battle, Excadrill even distrusted her.

As for Jinghe's Dragonite...

Needless to say, even wild, untrained Dragonite, a pseudo-legendary Pokémon from the Kanto region, is extremely powerful.

"Roar!!"

Seeing the Dragonite opposite it, Haxorus gently rubbed its scythe-like crimson teeth together, its eyes full of energy.

Dragonite, not to be outdone, roared back, its expression turning serious.

It's willing to lose to anyone but Dragon-type Pokémon because it's so competitive.

Before the battle even began, the tension between the two sides had already flared up.

Seeing that both players were ready, the referee suddenly dropped his flag and shouted:

"The battle begins!"

"Roar!!"

Before anything had been done, the Double-Axe Dragon roared again, its aura surging, with a faint dark red current rising from below.

Upon seeing this, Jing He raised an eyebrow slightly.

What are the characteristics of a "fighting spirit"?
[Fighting Spirit: Facing an opponent of the same gender ignites a fighting spirit, making one stronger. However, facing an opponent of the opposite gender weakens this fighting spirit.]

I didn't expect that Shaka's Haxorus ability would be "Fighting Spirit" instead of the more common and practical "Mold Breaker".

However, in this battle, the boost from "fighting spirit" was clearly more effective than "breaking the rules".

"Double Axe Dragon, Dragon Claw!" Shaka swung his thick arm and launched the first attack without hesitation.

And there was no intention to use Dragon Dance or Sword Dance to improve one's own status first.

But Jinghe had anticipated this.

After all, Haxorus already has the "fighting spirit" boost, giving it an inherent advantage over Dragonite in terms of stat boosts.

Even with some anticipation, Jinghe's choice was still—

"Doragondes!"

Dragon Dance Amplification!
"Roar--!!"

With a roar, Haxorus charged headlong at Dragonite, rapidly closing the speed gap between them. Dense, deep purple dragon-type energy swirled around its crimson claws.

Dragonite, however, chose to ignore it, flapping its wings and emitting a peculiar rhythm, its aura beginning to rise.

The Haxorus was naturally outraged by this display of power right in front of it, and its ferocious claws seemed poised to tear everything apart.

Upon seeing this, the students in the audience gasped.

Danger!
Are we just going to take a hit from the double-axe dragon's claw attack for nothing?

Keep in mind that both are Dragon-type Pokémon, which are super effective against each other, so the power of this Dragon Claw move is not to be underestimated.

As students from the academy, they are naturally very clear about the basic attribute counters, especially students like Alice from the dragon class.

But Adek, holding the microphone, provided an answer.

"Excellent judgment!"

Alder seemed wide awake. "Jinghe determined that Shaka's Haxorus has the 'Fighting Spirit' ability, so Dragonite is at a disadvantage in terms of boosts, hence the choice to enhance it!"

Where did you see the "fighting spirit" characteristic?
But wouldn't we still be attacked if we did that?

This is what most students think.

"Dragonite's ability is 'Multiscale,' so the damage from this Dragon Claw attack is definitely not as great as you might imagine!"

Multiple scales!

Upon hearing this, many students looked enlightened.

Dragonite's hidden ability, Multiscale - When at full health, attacks are blocked by its scales, greatly reducing damage!
Is this what a battle between top trainers looks like?

In the blink of an eye, multiple judgments were made and the best choice was made.

Once Dragonite completes Dragon Dance, its Attack and Speed ​​are both boosted, which honestly gives it a greater advantage than the damage caused by "Fighting Spirit" and Dragon Claw.

boom! !

The Haxorus's claws slammed into the Dragonite's belly, nearly shattering its scales, but the thick scales ultimately blocked the blow.

Shaka frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, "Wide-area combat power!"

The Haxorus stomped its feet, twisted its entire body 180 degrees, and lashed its thick tail viciously at the Dragonite.

Dragonite's Multiscale attack only works when it's at full strength, so this second attack won't be so easy to block.

Moreover, wide-area attack can reduce the opponent's physical attack ability. If it hits, even if it's just a clash of moves, it's still a win for Shaka and Haxorus.

At this point, the best option is actually to have Dragonite use Extreme Speed ​​to dodge.

To be honest, it's not that difficult given Dragonite's speed.

Later on, it can also use its speed and air superiority to deal with the Haxorus.

But.
Looking into Dragonite's eyes, Jinghe could feel the increasingly surging fighting spirit within Dragonite.

When facing Dragon-type Pokémon, Dragonite is truly "competitive," therefore...
Jinghe made a command that exceeded everyone's expectations, including Xia Ka and Adeke.

"Dragonite, Air Blade!" It happened in the blink of an eye.

Dragonite flapped its wings, striking first despite being behind, and slashed out with two bright white arcs that landed on Haxorus before its tail could reach it.

Boom! !
Two blades of air exploded on the body of the Twin Axe Dragon, and its movements were frozen in place!

"They chickened out!"

Adek exclaimed in surprise.

To be honest, even Aldeck didn't expect Jinghe and Dragonite to fight like this.

Avoiding it is definitely the best choice, because it is the safest option.

The ideal result is that the air blade puts the opponent into a "cowardly" state, because no one can guarantee that the air blade will succeed.

But they still did it.
Adeke looked at Jing He, who had a calm expression but bright eyes, and at the Dragon, whose face was full of confidence.

How could they dare to be so reckless and impulsive?

This was Adek's previous thought.

But now, he understands.

It's about trust.

Kuailong trusted Jinghe's judgment and believed that he would play the most comfortable, familiar, and well-understood matchup.

Jinghe also believes that the Dragons will definitely put their opponents in a "timid" state.

This is the absolute trust between the trainer and the Pokémon, the power bestowed by the bond, which almost completely violates basic theoretical strategies and is something that is not taught in the academy classroom.

Adeker could sense it, and Shaka, as Jinghe's opponent in the Quick Dragons, felt it even more clearly.

That overwhelming sense of trust.
It's like the difference between academics and travelers: the academics choose to avoid direct confrontation, while the travelers prefer to confront each other head-on.

Alice, her fist clenched tightly as she stared intently at the field.

do not know why.

She felt that if it were her, she would make the same choice.

Just like during the day, when she let the Axew attack relentlessly during class without considering its feelings and abilities, she was criticized by Shaka.

Actually, it was because she and the Axew had their own ideas that prevented them from achieving the outcome they envisioned.

After all.

It's still because we don't understand each other well enough, and we don't trust each other enough.

If Jinghe knew what they were thinking, she would definitely chuckle to herself.

Trust in Dragonite?
This is inevitable.

Our fat one is famous for its "conservation of good fortune"!

You will definitely not underperform in battle!

Everyone had their own thoughts after witnessing what had just happened, but the battle continued.

Haxorus was forced into a "cowardly" state, its wide-area attack was interrupted, and Dragonite completely gained the upper hand in this battle!

But the next moment.

However, Shaka made a command that exceeded everyone's expectations.

"Reverse Scale!"

The steady voice reached the ears of the "cowardly" double-axe dragon, and its eyes instantly turned crimson, its aura surged wildly, and a terrifying dark red aura swirled around its body.

They actually used the "rage" of the reverse scale to counteract their own "cowardice" state!
This is something that isn't in the textbooks, which is astonishing.

However, Adek wasn't too surprised by this.

After all, he knew Shaka quite well; the two were old friends, and this move was within his expectations.

To be honest, this was something that Jinghe and Kuailong hadn't anticipated.

Who would have thought that the Haxorus could use its Outrageous Scales' "Rage" to counteract its own "Cowardice" state, thus negating the "Cowardice" status?

But if it's a sore spot
A smile appeared on Jinghe's face, and Dragonite's mouth also grinned.

They are of one mind and share the same thoughts.

When it comes to defying authority, who have they ever feared?
"Since that's the case, then we'll defy the odds too!"

wow——

These words caused an uproar throughout the room.

Use the enemy's reverse scale to fight the enemy's reverse scale?

Isn’t this too exciting?

"Woo!!!"

Dragonite roared, and like Haxorus, a terrifying aura rose from its body. The scarlet aura seemed to evaporate and boil blood, and its frightening presence was in no way inferior to that of Haxorus.

boom! !

The two ferocious dragons abandoned all their weapons and clashed together with brutal, flesh-on-flesh punches.

The force of the collision caused ripples to spread across the barrier protecting the audience seats.

Counteracting each other's weaknesses is a reasonable choice.

Shaka kept a straight face, already thinking about how to continue the battle after both sides had vented their anger.

But Jinghe's voice came abruptly, causing Xia Ka to lose her composure for the first time.

"Quick Dragon, Dragon Dive!"

boom! !

After Dragonite and Haxorus clashed and separated with a single punch, they actually flapped their wings and flew into the air. A layer of dragon's coat appeared on top of the dark red aura surrounding their bodies.

The interplay of dark red and deep blue seemed to transform into a lifelike ancient dragon, charging straight towards the Twin Axe Dragon with an indomitable and terrifying momentum.

The whole audience was in an uproar again.

How did you do it?
Even though Dragonite has already used Outrage and entered the "Berserk" state brought about by Outrage, it shouldn't be able to use any more moves until Outrage ends!

This is common knowledge about Dragon-type Pokémon!
But with the Dragonite unleashing its Dragon Dive attack right before their eyes, they had no choice but to believe it.

They just don't understand.

why?
In fact, not only them, but even Adek, who was giving the commentary, couldn't react immediately.

Could it be
"Is it the bond between Jinghe and Dragonite that allows Dragonite to hear commands even when it's in a frenzy?" Alder's voice rang out across the arena through the microphone.

Bond?

Is this power really that magical?

boom! ! !
The deafening roar and the billowing dust were the best answers to their questions.

Yes.

For those who prioritize bonds, having bonds truly allows them to do whatever they want.

Bonds are like "hanging".

What's so special about being in a state of being overwhelmed by anger?
Inverse properties, or even ignoring properties and states, are all common occurrences.

Jinghe lightly smacked her lips.

I never imagined that one day I would become the person I used to "hate" the most.

Tsk.

The dragon slayer eventually becomes the evil dragon?

When the dust settled, Dragonite stood with its head held high amidst the ruins, while Haxorus had lost its ability to fight.

"Haxodon, incapacitated!"

Three unexpected things happened during this battle.

First, Dragonite's Air Blade; second, Haxorus's Outrage ability counters Cowardice; and third, Dragonite's Dragon Dive while in Outrage state.

Each and every one of them is something that isn't in the textbook.

Each item left the students astonished.

"That's it, that's it," Alice murmured repeatedly, her eyes sparkling.

This is what she wanted to see: a battle scene featuring the Dragon Master.

Dragons can be so unreasonable!

Shaka retracted his twin-axe war dragon and gave Jing He a deep look.

He never expected that Jinghe and Dragonite could do what he, as a Dragon-type master, had failed to do.

No wonder he is respected at such a young age.

Actually, if it weren't for that unconventional use of air blades, their battle wouldn't have ended so quickly.

Although Shaka is a gym leader, his strength is actually no less than that of some of the Elite Four.

only.
The attack was unexpected and caught him and the Double-Axe War Dragon off guard.

of course.

This is also part of the battle, testing the trainers' ability to judge the situation and their opponents.

He had to admit that inviting Jing He to teach the students together was absolutely the right decision.

These are things you can't find in textbooks.

Taking a slight breath, Shaka's expression became even more serious.

He looked at Jing He, who had retrieved Dragonite, nodded slightly, and at the same time, another Poké Ball appeared in his hand.

The battle is not over yet. Winning or losing is one thing, but the key to this battle is to let the students see more and learn more.

"Go, Tanabata Blue Bird!"

Shaka summoned his second Pokémon.

Tanabata Bluebird?

The ace was summoned first, and the second one summoned was the Tanabata. Jing He's heart skipped a beat, and she made a rather bold guess.

Could it be
Is a "traitor to the dragons" about to make his appearance?
