Chapter 277: A Brand New Column - "Teacher Yu Talks Myths"

Although she couldn't help feeling a little emotional, Zhu Lan didn't voice her thoughts.

After all, Qingyu's career in Padonia has already taken off. As one of the eight gym leaders of the Padonia League, this honor far surpasses that of ordinary mythologists.

Moreover, his fame extends beyond Padia. Thanks to his rigorous and dedicated live streams and video tutorials, almost every elite trainer in various regions knows him, and countless trainers have been subtly influenced by him.

Of all the Sinnoh League members Cynthia knows, there are the three young men from the Elite Four, Denji from the Seaside Gym, and Nagato from the Ebisu Gym.

Strictly speaking, Qingyu's suggestion was also behind his taming of Kommo-o as a companion.

Furthermore, Kanto's King Lance, Hoenn Champion Steven, and Galar's "Strongest Champion" Leon all have a deep connection with Aoba.

Unbeknownst to him, Qingyu had become an outstanding trainer with considerable influence worldwide, having unknowingly built a terrifying network of connections, and it was clearly on the verge of continuing to expand outwards...

In a sense, Qingyu can no longer be viewed simply as a gym leader.

Moreover, one of the four kings of Padiya is currently vacant.

Given Qingyu's skill level and the importance that the Alliance President Yeci places on him, his chances of promotion are quite high.

Thinking of this, Zhu Lan couldn't help but smile.

Did the accident that happened before not only fail to break him down, but instead stimulate his inner potential?
Now, it's too difficult to bring up the idea of ​​inviting him back to Sinnoh.

Seeing that he was doing well on his own in Padiya, Zhu Lan felt much more at ease.

Qingyu, who was video chatting with Zhulan, quickly noticed the smile on her face and smiled back faintly.

At the same time, he suddenly realized something and immediately said:

"By the way, since we're talking about mythology and history, I'm thinking of making a short video explaining the history and mythology of Sinnoh. What do you think?"

He hadn't thought of this while they were chatting, but while Zhu Lan was thinking, he edited the video for a bit and realized...

The history of the Pokémon world is completely unfamiliar to most people.

People in every region have probably heard of their own legendary Pokémon, such as Ho-Oh and Lugia, who left the Burnt Tower 150 years ago, or the Unova Dragons, which respectively symbolize ideals and reality and are sleeping somewhere unknown.

but……

That's all.

The Sinnoh people may know about the Lake Gods, the creator god Arceus, and his three unfilial sons, but they are completely ignorant of the deeper aspects.

These mysterious and unverified histories, whose authenticity has yet to be determined, have never been systematically compiled by anyone.

That's why Qingyu came up with this idea.

You need to learn tactics, you need to learn Pokémon training, and you need to learn theoretical knowledge even more.

These myths and histories are an important part of understanding the world and should not be neglected, otherwise one can be considered a well-rounded student!

Zhu Lan subconsciously raised an eyebrow at Qing Yu's sudden, inexplicable idea, and then nodded.

"Yeah, I think it's pretty good."

"There should be quite a few people willing to learn about these things, even if they are not scholars in the relevant fields, they should be happy to learn about the legendary Pokémon."

"If this method can generate more interest in the work of mythologists, it would be a good thing."

Zhu Lan immediately saw through Qing Yu's thoughts.

Given his style, he should be able to transform the originally dull and boring myths and legends into vivid and interesting content, attracting more people's interest, right?

This is certainly a good thing, and Qingyu has also promised not to reveal her recent discovery.

But the only problem now is...

"It must be a huge undertaking to popularize these currently questionable points, right?"

"Do you need my help?"

"No need, I can handle this little thing."

Qingyu immediately refused, but confidently gave a thumbs up.

"You look exhausted. You must have just come back from an archaeological site. Get some rest!"

"If there's anything that can help me..."

"If there are any problems after the video comes out tomorrow, please remember to point them out in the comments section!"

"..."

Upon hearing Qingyu's words, Zhulan was taken aback, but her heart warmed instantly, and she smiled faintly.

"Okay, then I won't disturb your work."

"Goodbye~"

After saying that, Zhu Lan smiled and waved, then hung up the phone.

After chatting with her for a while, Qingyu felt much better.

He quickly put away his phone and was about to continue his work when he suddenly heard a cute chirping sound coming from below.

"Buy?"

Seemingly having heard Cynthia's voice, Sylveon, who had been lying on the sofa watching TV, appeared beside Qingyu at some point and looked at him with curious eyes.

"You're too late. Zhu Lan has already hung up the phone and is getting ready to rest."

Qingyu smiled indulgently and bent down to pat its raised, curious little head.

"Buyi..."

Seeing that she had missed the chance to greet the boss, Sylveon pouted helplessly and slapped away Qingyu's big hand with her ribbon.

Then, he took a step back, leaped lightly, and landed firmly on Qingyu's thigh.

"..."

Qingyu felt a sudden, intense impact on her thigh, which even started to go numb.

If it were during Ibrahimovic's time, he could have withstood these kinds of minor actions.

But now...

Although the celestial cloth looks slender, it is actually a "hundred-ton king" weighing a full 50 kilograms!
Being bumped by this little guy and still being able to remain unmoved, in a sense, one's physical abilities have been assimilated in the Pokémon world.

Seeing Sylveon willing to snuggle up to him and act cute again after so long, Qingyu could only painfully and enjoyably endure this "happy trouble."

"Buy~"

Sylveon, sitting on Qingyu's lap, raised its head, its eyes fixed on Qingyu's every move like a stern supervisor.

With it, even the most tedious workdays have some company.

Qingyu thought to herself, and soon immersed herself in her editing work again.

At first, Sylveon was very energetic, staring intently at the screen.

However, with the audio recordings that Qingyu occasionally made, Xianbu's face soon showed signs of drowsiness.

However, it still resisted its drowsiness, seemingly waiting for Qingyu to finish its work.

About an hour later, the original work was completed.

Normally, Qingyu would already be playing with Sylveon, but today he has extra work to do.

Sylveon shuddered and quickly showed a look of disappointment.

But it wasn't long before it discovered the difference in Qingyu's video footage this time.

"Buy?"

Gazing at the mural information that Qingyu had found online, Sylveon quickly tilted its head, its eyes carefully examining the pictures.

It didn't recognize much of what was on the screen, but it could vaguely sense that the two tall Pokémon in it were quite cool, probably the same kind of Pokémon as the dragon Pokémon that flew in the air back then...

Unfortunately, the images on the murals are too abstract. The painting skills of the ancients were really limited, so it is difficult to imagine what they really look like.

However, as a little artist who vowed to draw the most powerful dragon Pokémon in the world, Sylveon couldn't help but have a simple thought in her mind—that's right, perhaps the reason why she failed to get Master Smeargle's approval was because she chose the wrong subject to sketch!

Besides that big guy that the trainer calls "Rayquaza", there must be many other cool legends in this world waiting for you to discover!
I wish I could see them in person.

That way we'll know who the most handsome dragon is!

Then, Sylveon's gaze quickly fell on Qingyu, her eyes filled with longing.

"What, you also want to learn about these legendary Pokémon?"

Qingyu seemed to have figured out what it was thinking, so it helplessly reached out and scratched Sylveon's chin, skillfully using its cat-petting technique to make Sylveon squint its eyes.

"If there's a chance in the future, I'll definitely let you see them."

"but……"

If the two gods of time and space really do appear, it seems like it would be quite troublesome.

These two idiots are alright, but if they drag Giratina from the reversed dimension out with them, things will get really messy.

After thinking it over, Qingyu decisively retracted her previous statement.

"Sylveon, do you know the saying 'Don't bite off more than you can chew'?"

"Let's finish drawing that Rayquaza portrait first, and then consider the other legendary Pokémon."

Qingyu narrowed her eyes and began her daily dose of "deception".

"Buy~"

After thinking for a moment, Sylveon nodded, tentatively agreeing with Qingyu's point of view.

That's true, but the problem now is...

That Rayquaza hasn't appeared in a long time; I've almost forgotten the details of its appearance.

If I could appear in front of myself again, I would just be a model and be happy to do it!

Sylveon couldn't help but think this.

……

Time passes slowly.

As the clock strikes 12 again, a new day begins.

Meanwhile, a somewhat popular user on Pokémon TV once again uploaded a video right on time.

Countless viewers who were still waiting late at night quickly flooded into the video, and within a minute the opening sequence was already packed with a dense barrage of comments.

Teacher Yu, forever a legend!

[A heads-up: Today's victim is one of Teacher Yu's old acquaintances, the Battle Master of Sinnoh Battle Castle, Gadria! Another adorable girl has fallen victim to Teacher Yu's wickedness!]

[Dirty, Teacher Yu is so dirty!]

The title of this video is "Teacher Yu teaches you how to play Sunny Day Team - Doubles Edition!"

As a continuation of last week's video, the content of this episode was largely expected by viewers.

"Team Sunny is still on this week, but the roles of the team's players have changed slightly in doubles."

"Team Sunny Day's formation is still focused on Coal Turtle, while Incineroar is the soul of the team, bearing a great deal of responsibility."

"Without further ado, let's get straight to the analysis through practical examples!"

Therefore, Qingyu didn't waste any time. After a brief exchange of pleasantries, he delivered the key information he had mentioned during the live stream, as well as a high-intensity battle with Jiadeliya.

Even the spectators could quickly spot something was wrong in this match—

Holy crap, how come Teacher Yu is being suppressed so badly?

[Miss Cattleya's predictions are quite impressive; she pinpointed every single step Teacher Yu took...]

[She must watch a lot of live streams! Just look at the moves she uses and that 'soul-snatching eye' in the team, you can only say she's almost been assimilated by Teacher Yu!]

However, Teacher Yu reacted quickly, catching the opponent off guard with a variation!

Despite a poor start, Qingyu successfully deterred Miss Gothic with a yawn, thus gaining a chance to rotate, and the aggressive tactics quickly came into play.

What followed was a crushing victory.

"Team Sunny doesn't need to think too much. Just overwhelm them with firepower; that's the easiest solution. As for rotations and such..."

"You don't need to learn if you don't play in the Masters tournament."

Qingyu's slightly teasing voice rang out, and the comments section immediately burst into laughter.

[Me? Me, playing in the Masters tournament? Really?]

[So the most effective tactic is a fast push? Does that mean my tactical understanding is ten years ahead of Teacher Yu's?]

Although I know I can't compete, the thought that there might actually be Masters Tournament players in the live stream suddenly made me feel a little heartwarming about Yu's reminder...

In the latter half of the video, Qingyu also used other footage from the live stream to continue explaining the other Pokémon in the team.

"While the spicy chili peppers can be replaced, sometimes a few clever ideas can also produce good results."

"For example, using chili essence to strengthen teammates can make them immune to negative effects through the Cleansing Pendant, thus strengthening our Blazing Roaring Tiger."

"As for the other tips and tricks from the Sunny Day Team members, we'll leave that for you students to discover on your own~"

As Qingyu finished speaking, this video also came to an end...

wrong!

Many viewers who were about to fast-forward and watch again to make sure they hadn't missed any details suddenly realized—

The progress bar has just shown a grand sash, but it's still not at the bottom!
And soon, they discovered the secret of this "little Easter egg".

On the dark screen, Qingyu's voice quickly reappeared, adding with a smile:
"I almost forgot! Starting today, Teacher Yu will be launching a brand new program, which will be updated irregularly. Viewers who have made it this far, please remember to support it!"

what?
Countless viewers were stunned and stood there for two seconds before they reacted and hurriedly opened "Qunqing Zhiyu's" personal homepage.

Sure enough, in addition to the video I had just watched, Qingyu updated with a new video a minute ago.

The video section is also divided into two different sections: "Teacher Yu Teaches You How to Play Battle" and "Teacher Yu Talks About Mythology".

Many viewers rubbed their eyes in disbelief.

Teacher Yu, that lazy pigeon, usually treats it like it's going to kill him if he has to do an extra minute of live streaming, but this time he actually took the initiative to upload two videos in a row?

Has Teacher Yu's personality changed from lazy to energetic?
and……

I'd never heard of Teacher Yu being a mythologist before. How come it feels absurd that a regional champion participated in the Grand Contest and won three consecutive championships?

Driven by curiosity, Qingyu's fans quickly clicked on the new video.

The title of this video is—

The Legend of Sinnoh: Arceus's Creation!

The name alone is enough to pique the curiosity of all viewers.

Arceus, the creator god, is a figure whose legends have been heard even by those who are not Sinnohs.

It is said that not only humans and Pokémon, but the world we live in today was created by this supreme deity.

However, few people have a clear understanding of this legendary figure, and some have not even heard of his specific deeds.

With this curiosity, the audience waited quietly for Qingyu to appear.

Soon, a deep, magnetic voice entered their ears as the progress bar rolled.

"From the first life in the world to the gods worshipped by our ancient ancestors to the first Pokémon captured by humankind, you have experienced a great deal."

"Now, let us transcend time and space, returning to the very moment of life's birth, focusing on the great deity who dispelled chaos and brought order—"

"Arzetus, the creator god!"
