Elf: How do you cultivate immortality in the elf world?

Chapter 349 The Champion! The Power of Victory!
The mantis, flying in mid-air, felt as if the whole world had fallen silent, and its mind was replaying a series of images.

From the first time I met my trainer, to the first victory in battle, to the first breakthrough...

The scyther thought it might be going to die.

why?
Why is Steelix's attack suddenly so terrifying?
And it's so violent.

Lu Li hadn't expected Steelix's counterattack to be so terrifying. It actually wiped out a fully healed Scizor in one hit.

Lu Li breathed a sigh of relief when the scyther landed heavily on the ground, unable to fight.

The attack was terrifying and ferocious; he was genuinely afraid that Scizor would be killed by Steelix.

The Scizor looked incredibly pitiful, with missing limbs and other injuries; such injuries are quite severe even for a Pokémon.

If not treated promptly, it could even affect the very foundation of life.

Melo gritted her teeth and recalled Scizor, then looked at Steelix with a puzzled expression.

I didn't understand, and I was deeply shocked.

In fact, not only Melo, but also the audience on the Xuanwu Gate city wall were extremely confused and deeply shocked at this moment.

The Scizor was instantly killed, and almost was.

Anyone with eyes can see that if the Scizor didn't have its life-saving mechanism, its opponent would die on the spot.

"So... this big guy is his trump card?" Li Ning muttered to himself incredulously.

Frank gritted his teeth and said, "That bastard really hid it well!"

Frank felt frustrated at the thought that he hadn't even managed to force Lu Li to reveal his true strength.

Although equally stunned, the referee dutifully urged, "Please release your next Pokémon."

Melo released her last Pokémon in frustration, but it was no use. Facing the rampaging Steelix, it was still destined to be instantly killed.

Melo was completely dazed when she left the stage, and even when she went to sleep that night, she couldn't understand why she had lost.

After all, the difference in strength between the two was too great, and yet he still lost.

"Champion! Congratulations to Lu Li for winning the championship!" the referee announced excitedly.

Today's match was absolutely the most exciting since the Victory Tournament was established, bar none.

The weak triumphed over the strong, and this dramatic scene unfolded in reality.

Freya, standing in the audience, jumped up excitedly: "Yay!! Lu Li is the champion!"

Everyone looked at Lu Li with envy. At this moment, no one cared about Freya's cheers and jubilation; they were only thinking about paying their respects to the legend.

Li Ning's eyes gleamed as he looked at the seemingly radiant young man on the court.

At the age of 17, he defeated a champion-level trainer in the arena and won the Victory Tournament.

These words and phrases combined are so niche!
But this guy is so outstanding it's almost despair-inducing.

Li Ning was once again filled with regret; if only he had…

On the Xuanwu Gate city wall, one could see a variety of reactions: some people were clapping, some were cheering, some had gloomy faces, and some were full of admiration.

But none of this mattered to Lu Li, because he was about to receive an award.

As the referee announced the winner of the tournament, Lu Li was invited to the podium.

Although it's called a podium, Lu Li always felt that it was more like an altar, and he was standing right in the middle of it.

"Damn it! I hope this isn't an ancient sacrificial ritual," Lu Li thought to himself, speechless.

"coming!"

Someone exclaimed in surprise, and everyone looked up into the distance.

A streak of orange-yellow light flew in from afar. It did not possess any of the majesty of a divine beast and looked incredibly approachable.

Everyone watched the streak of light with excitement.

The god of victory, Pictini, has descended!

The Victini that flew from the Temple of Victory circled twice above Lu Li's head before stopping.

Floating in the air, Victini pointed with his small hand, and a beam of light shot out from his finger, growing larger and larger until it enveloped Luli.

Lu Li could clearly feel a force entering his body.

This force seems to be a key, or perhaps a qualification certificate.

After the light rose, Victini nodded in satisfaction, then turned and flew back to the Temple of Victory.

Lu Li also carefully experienced his newly acquired abilities.

"Is this what they call the power of victory?" Lu Li pondered, as if he understood why those blessed by the god of victory were invincible.

Lu Li consciously stepped down from the altar. Although the altar meant no harm, he still felt somewhat uncomfortable standing on it.

The victory rally has come to a successful conclusion, and the next step is the so-called victory celebration.

However, Lu Li had no interest in the celebration, so he returned directly to the princess's residence.

As a princess of the Tang Dynasty, Li Ning naturally had to attend the victory celebration, so she did not return with Lu Li.

Freya had been suppressing her curiosity, but after returning to the princess's residence, she looked at Lu Li with curiosity and asked, "What exactly is the power of victory?"

"It's a special power that can slightly enhance physical attributes, and the spirits that have a bond with me will have an additional special ability, similar to how my spirits and I can fight monsters and level up." Lu Li didn't hide anything.

To put it bluntly, the so-called power of victory is roughly equivalent to leveling up in a game in real life.

The Power of Victory allows his Pokémon to gain "experience" by constantly defeating opponents. As long as there is enough experience, the Pokémon can level up quickly without any bottlenecks.

However, the "experience" of the power of victory has no effect once you reach the peak of the champion level. If you want to break through to the realm of gods, you will have to rely on yourself then.

However, this leveling up by defeating monsters doesn't apply to the trainer themselves; trainers can't level up by defeating monsters. But the Power of Victory has another effect: Data Eye.

It's like carrying around a god-level Pokédex, allowing you to view a Pokémon's level, characteristics, and even its skills.

The reason why those victorious messengers were invincible was because they used "data eyes" to check the strength of the spirits, and then leveled up by fighting monsters, snowballing their power until it grew bigger and bigger.

In addition, this "leveling up by defeating monsters" has an extremely terrifying effect: it ignores the aptitude of the spirits.

No matter how poor a Pokémon's aptitude is, as long as it gains experience, its strength will follow suit. The so-called theory of Pokémon aptitude is a joke in the face of the power of victory.

However, the lower the potential of a Pokémon, the more experience it needs to level up. But given enough time, even the Pokémon with the worst potential can reach the Champion level.

For a high-potential Pokémon, it might only take ten years to go from a novice trainer to a champion-level peak.

Training that grants the power to win guarantees a champion-level peak performance, provided you don't fall apart midway.

Lu Li's assessment of the power of victory was that its lower limit was extremely high, but its upper limit was not high.

The lower limit is the champion-level peak, but the upper limit is also the champion-level peak.

For others, the power of victory is absolutely precious, but for Lu Li, it's just so-so.

After all, he has no shortage of ways to make elves stronger; pills are definitely more effective than the power of victory, and there may be no limit to the effectiveness of pills.

But the power of victory is different; however, if the two are combined, it can rapidly increase the strength of his Pokémon.

Therefore, the power of victory is merely icing on the cake for him.

Freya listened with envy, then sighed with relief, "Fortunately, this power of victory wasn't obtained by that madman Melona."

Melo has been fighting since she was a child. If her opponent gains the power of victory, she can't even imagine how terrifying his future will be.

Lu Li nodded in agreement.

Lu Li strongly suspected that the power of victory should have belonged to Melo, but he had intercepted her opportunity. Lu Li announced, "Let's go back tomorrow."

"Aren't you going to play a little longer? Chang'an is going to be quite lively soon," Freya asked, puzzled.

Lu Li shook his head: "Judging by the time, I'll be going to Dragon Island soon. I need to make preparations for going there."

Freya nodded in agreement.

…………

Under Li Ning's reluctant gaze, Lu Li bid farewell to this friend who was considered a friend, and officially embarked on his journey home.

Lu Li, who arrived at the entrance on a flying sprite, encountered an unexpected person.

Upon seeing Lu Li, Meiluo came up to greet him gracefully, saying, "You've finally arrived."

"You're waiting for me here?" Lu Li asked, puzzled.

Melo nodded.

Lu Li: "Why are you waiting for me?"

Let's have a baby!

Melo's opening remarks were a critical hit.

Freya stared at Melo in shock.

Lu Li stared in disbelief at the person in front of him.

"Are people from your Progressive Association really this direct?" Lu Li retorted speechlessly.

Melo said in a serious tone, "I am the best female in the world, and you are the best male in the world. We are born to have children together."

According to the dating guide in the book, girls should be more direct and bold when pursuing boys. There's a saying that goes, "It's easy for a girl to pursue a boy."

Thinking about this, Melo mentally gave herself a thumbs up.

Melo believed her reasons were impeccable.

Just as there are rules for elves to lay eggs, there are also rules for humans to have children.

Melo believed she was worthy of Lu Li.

Besides, it's just having a child, it's not a big deal.

Lu Li really wanted to refuse outright, after all, this was no longer an arranged marriage, it was direct breeding!

but……

Lu Li thought about it again and realized that this woman's talent was indeed undeniable.

According to his previous family plan, having many children and many blessings was indeed a good idea, and keeping Meiluo in the Lu family would not be a bad thing.

Melo possesses the purest wildness, which is what Lu Li admires most, but also what he fears most.

If his wild nature is not restrained, Melo will definitely do many things that Melo cannot accept, since wild men have no moral compass.

The reason I had this idea was because of the other person's strength and good looks; the reason I hesitated was because the other person was untamed and wild.

"Well, I already have a girlfriend," Lu Li said seriously.

Melo quickly replied, "It's alright, I don't mind."

Land from:"……"

"You don't mind, but I do," Lu Li thought to himself, speechless.

Lu Li could find another excuse: "I still have some things to do in the real world, and I'm still young, so I don't plan to have children."

Melo said earnestly, "When you're planning to have children, be sure to look for me."

Lu Li could only nod perfunctorily.

When pursuing a boy, you need to know when to advance and when to retreat. You can't be too persistent. Now is the time to back down.

Melo decisively left.

Freya, who witnessed all of this, was deeply shocked.

She could tell that Melo truly saw herself as an elf; rather than adhering to human morality, it was more accurate to say that she was following elven instincts.

Freya warned worriedly, "This woman is dangerous, and the forces behind her are also dangerous."

Of the three major evil organizations today, the Progressive Society is the most insane. Freya is worried that Lu Li will be led astray by the Progressive Society.

Lu Li nodded.

He's no longer the novice he was six months ago; he knows a bit about the Progressive Association now.

The members of the Progressive Society are the easiest to recruit, but also the most fickle. He wouldn't have brought Melo home without absolute certainty.

They lined up, their minds heavy with worry. They were told they would have to undergo a medical check before leaving, and that the checks were conducted separately for men and women.

The guards will check each trainer's inventory bag and the Poké Balls they are carrying in order to prevent them from poaching Pokémon.

After undergoing the examination, Lu Li and Freya finally left the secret realm of the Tang Empire.

Back in the real world, Freya let out a heavy sigh and remarked, "Phew! It's really a bit disorienting to be back in the real world with such low energy concentrations."

Lu Li nodded in deep agreement. As someone who was most sensitive to energy, he was the one who could directly feel this sense of disparity.

Lu Li smiled and comforted him, "It's alright! We have our own secret realm too."

Freya nodded.

Although the energy concentration of the Mysterious Realm of a Thousand Faces is not as high as that of the Mysterious Realm of the Great Tang Empire, it is still stronger than that of the real world.

After leaving the secret realm, traveling became much easier.

The two chose the most direct and simplest method: instant teleportation.

In less than ten minutes, the two returned to Lu Family Village.

"Ok?"

Lu Li suddenly stopped.

With his hands forming a mudra, Lu Li opened his Celestial Vision. Looking at the magnificent world before him through the Celestial Vision, Lu Li couldn't help but gasp.

What the hell?

I've only been away for a few days, so why does it feel like I've been away for centuries?
What the heck is this superpower energy concentration? It's exceeded the limit to this extent.

Lu Li was numb.

Realizing that something might have happened at home, Lu Li quickly took out his phone to contact Wei.

Lu Li breathed a sigh of relief after the call was connected.

No matter how things change, as long as everyone is safe, that's all that matters.

Lu Li said in a low voice, "Wei, I'm back. Come to the living room to see me."

As soon as I entered the living room, I saw Boom playing a game, and Casey sitting next to Boom with a game controller.

"A new Pokémon that Boom has caught?" Lu Li glanced at it and then stopped paying attention to the Abra.

Upon hearing the commotion and seeing Lu Li return, Bao Bao was so excited that she didn't hesitate to throw down the controller in her hand.

"Brother!" Bao Bao exclaimed with delight.
