I haven't decided on a name for my Pokémon trainer yet.

"It's getting late, let's get some rest." Ye Feng had already started massaging his thighs.

"Oh." Ning Xian looked away, pulled her leg back, and then kicked Ye Feng's shoulder hard, pushing him backward.

Then he quickly ran into Ye Feng's room, swiftly locked the door, and shouted loudly outside, "You sleep on the sofa!"

Ye Feng pursed his lips, considered whether to ask Gardevoir to unlock the door, but then decided against it.

There is still a long way to go!

-------------------------------------

"Ye Feng, you don't have much time left..."

"Who?!"

Ye Feng suddenly opened his eyes, sat up, and looked around, but didn't see a single person.

Coming to her senses, she rubbed her forehead and muttered to herself, "I heard that voice again, even though it's been quiet for so long."

Ye Feng fell into deep thought.

Previously, he had only vaguely heard someone calling him, but this time, he clearly heard the other person calling his name.

Could it be due to increased mental strength?

But who exactly was it, and what was their purpose in summoning him to the past?

Could it be related to my time travel?

Moreover, although I decided not to think about Keystones and Mega Stones, it seems that this voice is probably inextricably linked to it.

"Generally speaking, these kinds of things would be prioritized for certain mythical beasts, such as alpacas or the Radiant God. Or, the World Tree? That would be Mew, right?"

"It's quite possible that it's a dream come true. After all, it's a well-known scoundrel. Giving it a gem would be a piece of cake for it. It might be spying on me right now."

Ye Feng secretly speculated.

High in the sky, Dream, who was dozing off, suddenly sneezed and woke up. She looked around blankly for a moment, then closed her eyes and went back to sleep.

Ye Feng glanced at the time, walked to the door and knocked: "Xiao Xian, wake up, the sun's already high in the sky!"

After a while, the door opened with a click.

Ning Xian rubbed her eyes and staggered out.

“Xiao Xian…” Ye Feng raised his hand.

Ning Xian didn't even glance at him, and strolled towards the bathroom.

"Still half asleep? But how did you find the bathroom so precisely?" Ye Feng scratched his cheek and followed.

Ning Xian went to the bathroom, stood in front of the sink for a while, and muttered to herself, "Huh, where's my toothbrush?"

"Xiao Xian?" Ye Feng poked his head out from behind the door.

"Ah!!" Ning Xian suddenly screamed and grabbed something to smash on Ye Feng's head.

"I boil it!"

···

"Ouch, you hit me so hard!" On the sofa, Ye Feng rubbed his head, which had been hit so hard that it had a bump. On the coffee table was a cup that had been broken into several pieces.

"Who told you to scare me so early in the morning!" Ning Xian, having changed her clothes, tenderly treated Ye Feng's wound with medicinal wine. "Does it hurt?"

"It hurts so much, I need a kiss to get up." Ye Feng fell backward and groaned.

"Like a little kid." Ning Xian pinched Ye Feng's arm and leaned over, "Mua! Is that okay now?"

"This side too, it has to be symmetrical!" Ye Feng turned his head, revealing the other side of his face.

"Seriously... mua!"

"hey-hey!"

"Alright, hurry up and brush your teeth and wash your face."

"okay!"

After brushing their teeth and washing their faces, the two went to the cafeteria for breakfast and then strolled around the school hand in hand.

"Xiaoxian, how long does it take for this training method to show any improvement? After stimulating it yesterday, I could only use a small amount of mental energy, and it disappeared in just a few seconds," Ye Feng asked.

"Huh? You can already use your mental power?" Ning Xian covered her mouth in surprise, then suddenly realized, "Wow! You were able to sense mental power a long time ago, weren't you?"

"No, how could that be?" Ye Feng looked away guiltily.

"Don't try to fool me." Ning Xian stood on tiptoe and turned Ye Feng's face towards her. "Although you are stronger than me in combat, you are far inferior to me in terms of superpowers. Don't try to fool me."

"Uh..." Ye Feng's face was turned towards Ning Xian, but his gaze was still looking elsewhere.

"Ok?"

"Alright, I can indeed sense spiritual power a long time ago." Under Ning Xian's intense gaze, Ye Feng had no choice but to admit it.

Ning Xian snorted and pinched Ye Feng's waist hard: "Although you can sense it, the growth of spiritual power is a slow process. If you want to release spiritual power for a long time, don't expect to do it in less than a year or two."

"It'll take this long?" Ye Feng's face immediately fell.

"Otherwise what? A person's mental strength is basically set at birth. Although this training method can increase it, it will take a long time to see results."

"Otherwise, why do you think there are so few people with superpowers? How many have you actually seen?"

"Well, so far, all I know is about you and that master trainer."

"That's good then. Young man, you have a long way to go!" Ning Xian stood on tiptoe and patted Ye Feng's shoulder.

Chapter 145 The Strangeness of Mental Power

After sending Ning Xian back to her dormitory, Ye Feng made an excuse to slip away and ran to the laboratory.

Here, you don't have to worry about being discovered what you're doing inside.

"Gardedor," Ye Feng called out.

Gardevoir jumped out of the Poké Ball.

"Let's try again." Ye Feng handed the Mega Stone to Gardevoir, while he held the Key Stone.

Ye Feng wanted to test whether his rudimentary mental energy could support Mega Evolution, although it was highly unlikely...

"Shauna?"

Gardevoir cried out in concern.

It remembered very clearly the last time Ye Feng had fallen into a coma.

"Just give it a try. If it doesn't work, stop immediately," Ye Feng said.

Although I don't know if it can be stopped.

Gardevoir nodded.

···

However, the result this time was not much better than the last.

During the Mega Evolution process, Ye Feng clearly felt that his mental power was like a bottle of water poured into the ocean, without causing any ripples—his mental power was instantly depleted.

Fortunately, Ye Feng threw out the key stone in time, forcibly stopping the evolution, otherwise he would have fainted again like last time.

"Speaking of which, throwing out a Key Stone can actually stop Mega Evolution? If Mega Evolution becomes widespread in the future, and your opponent starts Mega Evolution during a battle, if you knock out their Key Stone at that moment, wouldn't that be able to..." Ye Feng began to fantasize.

However, he also knew that this was wishful thinking.

Once Mega Evolution becomes widespread, this will definitely become a permitted item in battles. Within the rules, it is not allowed to use any means other than moves to knock away the opponent's item.

Hmm... I wonder if there are any moves that can knock trainer items away?

Ye Feng thought for a moment, but he couldn't recall such a move.

-------------------------------------

Over the next few days, under Ning Xian's guidance, Ye Feng systematically learned the mental strength training methods taught by the master trainer.

Ye Feng frowned and tried to use his mental power according to Ning Xian's instructions, but the effect was not very good.

Several days have passed, and although his mental strength has increased a little, it is far too slow for Ye Feng.

According to Ye Feng's estimate, the strength of mental power needs to increase to at least 3 to 4 times its current level in order to support the completion of Mega Evolution. At the current speed, it is indeed about the same as Ning Xian said, and it will be difficult to achieve results in less than a year and a half.

Furthermore, it's uncertain whether Ye Feng's mental energy will be needed after the Mega Evolution is completed.

"This won't do," Ye Feng said, opening his eyes. "This speed is too slow."

Logically speaking, since I'm a time traveler, and novels often say that time travelers have exceptionally strong souls, otherwise they wouldn't be able to withstand the pressure of time travel.

A strong soul usually implies strong mental power, right? Could it be that I truly lack talent?

"There's nothing we can do about it. A person's mental strength is determined at birth. If you don't have talent, it's extremely difficult to increase it through hard work later in life." Ning Xian shrugged; she didn't know what else to do.

“Actually, Ah Feng, your progress is already quite good. If someone doesn’t have talent, they won’t make any progress at all.”

"This..." Ye Feng paused, "If I let a Psychic-type Pokémon further stimulate my mental power..."

Ning Xian frowned and thought for a moment, then shook her head and said, "I don't recommend you do that."
