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

"···"

What should I do? What he said seems to make a lot of sense, and I can't refute it. Shang Yixue's eyes widened.

"Pfft!"

His teammates behind him couldn't help but laugh.

Chapter 194 Chapter

Shang Yixue felt that Ye Feng had a bit of a Versailles vibe.

But Ye Feng's innocent look left Shang Yixue speechless.

Well, after all, this is his first time participating in a large-scale competition, so it's normal for him to lack experience. Shang Yixue could only console herself with this thought.

Let's give them a proper talking-to afterward.

Next up is the team battle, which is pretty straightforward.

The opposing team's strength completely dampened Shang Yixue's interest as captain, so she didn't even step onto the field, letting her teammates have their fun instead. They easily secured the victory.

After all, Imperial University is one of the top universities in the country, and the overall strength of its sports teams is second to none, which is incomparable to other ordinary universities.

In Beijing, only Renmin University and Shanghai Jiao Tong University can rival them.

These two teams also play against each other regularly—Emperor University especially likes to challenge Renmin University, as the two schools are the closest to each other.

They also understand each other's strengths; Renmin University and Shanghai Jiao Tong University are still a step behind Imperial University.

As for the others, with the Imperial University looming overhead, it's more like a large-scale competition that they can only visit occasionally.

Only three teams can truly pose a threat to the Imperial University team: Shanghai University, Shenzhen University, and Huacheng University.

These four teams can be said to represent the top strength of Chinese university students, and also represent four first-tier cities in China.

However, these teams can only meet in the final official match, since they are not in the same region.

In previous years, the championship of the university league has rotated among these four universities—this year it's me, next year it's you, the year after that it's him, and the year after that it's him…

In recent years, a special person has emerged from Imperial University—Shang Yixue.

As for Shang Yixue's abilities, there's not much to say; it can be summed up in one sentence: she could join the national team immediately after graduation.

With Shang Yixue's presence, Imperial University has won the league championship every year for the past few years.

This period was hailed by other schools as the darkest time in the history of the college league.

Fortunately, Shang Yixue will graduate after this year and will no longer appear on the field of the college league.

Unfortunately, what they didn't know was that after Shang Yixue left, Ye Feng arrived—the dark period was destined to continue for several more years.

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

Lunch break.

After finishing his meal quickly, Ye Feng found a secluded spot to train.

The training target is King Thorn Dragon.

Although Ye Feng could vaguely guess from the tone of the giant Dragonite that Kingdra seemed to have something extraordinary, it was, after all, a wild Pokémon, and its strength was ultimately a little lacking. Ye Feng had not yet discovered anything special about Kingdra.

Fortunately, the Thorn Dragon King has good talent and has naturally grown to its current level, just one step away from becoming an advanced level.

After receiving temporary instruction from Shang Yixue, Ye Feng learned that he would not encounter any formidable opponents in the early stages of the league, and that many teams did not even have advanced trainers.

Therefore, the plan is to take this opportunity to let the King of Thorns go out and gain some experience.

You don't usually get such a good opportunity to have so many trainers of similar strength as opponents—especially compared to Kingdra.

Currently, Kingdra's main task is to replenish itself with Power Cubes and then master the various moves it has learned.

On the open ground, Kingdra was continuously using Dragon Pulse on Gardevoir, while Gardevoir held a berry, leisurely munching on it while enjoying the wind from the Dragon Pulse.

On the other side, Gyarados, Psydora, and Arcanine were having a three-way wrestling match...

No, it should be that after Gyarados activated Dragon Dance, it used Iron Tail to deal with the combined attack of Cthulhu and Arcanine (which didn't activate Agility), while Gardevoir would occasionally throw a Life Drop to help heal it.

Given the limited resources, these are the only simple training methods we can offer.

"No, no, King Thorn Dragon's energy is too scattered. The power of Dragon Pulse has not been fully utilized."

Ye Feng continuously used Gardevoir's feedback to correct Kingdra's use of moves.

Although Dragon Pulse is just a breeze for Gardevoir, it's not even the most severe form of gua sha, but it still produces a slight reaction. This reaction is that the Fairy-type energy within Gardevoir's body will fluctuate to some extent.

Gardevoir can deduce Kingdra's mastery of moves by observing these subtle energy changes.

In terms of physical abilities, Ye Feng can compensate with energy cubes, but mastering the moves can only be achieved through constant practice.

Fortunately, Gardevoir is there, and its feedback is much better than those move power testers.

"There's no need to release so much energy at once. Just enough to maintain the formation and stability of the Dragon Pulse is sufficient. Any excess energy is a waste."

"At the same time, when releasing moves, maintain the same frequency of energy release. Don't release too much at once, or you won't be able to keep up later. You can save some as a trump card for a burst of power at the right time. Of course, you can't release too little either, otherwise the Dragon Pulse won't be able to form."

"Then, the range of Dragon Pulse doesn't need to be that large. If the range is too large but the power is too weak, it's useless. Just compress it into a small enough range to ensure that it can hit the opponent."

"One is enough, don't be too greedy."

Ye Feng kept correcting the Thorn Dragon King's use of Dragon Pulse.

Kingdra pondered for a moment, seemingly understanding something. He nodded with a "Cirrus" sound and then used Dragon Pulse on Gardevoir again.

This time, the Dragon Pulse was much better; its range was much smaller, and its launch speed was much faster.

Meanwhile, judging from Gardevoir's feedback, its power has also increased somewhat.

"Not bad, not bad, Thorn Dragon King, you're really smart. Practice a few more times!" Ye Feng praised.

Kingdra was pleased with the praise and wiggled his body, then continued practicing Dragon Pulse with great enthusiasm.

After abandoning Kingdra to continue practicing Dragon Pulse, Ye Feng looked at Gyarados and the others.

···

Seriously, Adolphin's head is really made of iron. It collided with Gyarados's Iron Tail and didn't seem to be hurt at all. Is that how you use the Hard Head ability?

Ye Feng felt his teeth ache from hearing the "bang bang bang" sounds, but Kodora continued to crash into them with undiminished enthusiasm.

Moreover, Cadoram might be too well-nourished, as it now weighs a full 200kg, almost as heavy as a regular Cadoram with the Metal ability. How did it grow so big...? I've never heard of a Pokémon with two abilities before.

Ye Feng found it hard to imagine how heavy Aggron would be after evolving.

Based on normal circumstances, a typical 120kg lift is possible, while a boss lift can reach 360kg. Therefore, Ye Feng's boss lift weight could potentially reach 600kg...

Ye Feng found it hard to imagine how powerful Aggron would be against smaller Pokémon after learning Heavy Tackle.

Although the power of a heavy impact in the game is calculated based on the weight ratio and there is an upper limit, Ye Feng believes that it is definitely not that simple in reality.

Imagine a 600kg behemoth crashing into you... Even Bangira wouldn't feel good after being hit by it, right?

Hiss! My teeth hurt just thinking about it!

Chapter 195 The First Battle of the Dragon King

The afternoon's competition began quickly.

Shang Yixue also said that there are no strong opponents in the early stages of the competition, so there is no need to keep sending Gyarados to the field. Let other Pokémon gain some experience as well.

In the second match of the afternoon, the opponent was also a relatively unknown school, so Shang Yixue agreed to Ye Feng's request to let Thorn Dragon King and Kodora play to gain experience.

Ye Feng thought for a moment and decided to let the King of Thorns go first, leaving Akodra in his seat to watch.

My first opponent was a girl.

"I didn't send Gyarados this time, hopefully I won't make the opponent cry?" Ye Feng muttered to himself.

The referee for this match was the same one from the morning. With his excellent hearing, he overheard Ye Feng's mutterings, and his lips twitched involuntarily—even if you're a member of the Imperial University's team, you can't act like this…

"Fine, whatever." The referee assessed the strength of both sides and sighed heavily in his heart.

Hopefully, this girl will be able to be stronger.

Rock-paper-scissors—Ye Feng goes second again.

"Please send out your Pokémon!" the referee shouted.

The girl threw out a Poké Ball, which turned out to be a huge Venusaur.

"It seems this opponent is quite strong," Ye Feng thought to himself.

Venusaur, as the final evolution of the classic Grass-type starter Pokémon, is quite powerful if properly trained.

Ye Feng decisively threw out Kingdra's Poké Ball.

"Ci Lu~!"

This was Kingdra's first battle after being captured, and it was such an important large-scale competition, so Kingdra was determined to give it its all. As soon as it entered the arena, it unleashed the unique aura of a Dragon-type Pokémon and roared loudly.

"Keep it down, keep it down!" Ye Feng couldn't understand why the Thorn Dragon King was so agitated. Even the people in the next arena couldn't help but turn their attention to him, making him feel a little ashamed.

What's going on? I thought dragon-type Pokémon would be more serious and proper, why are they suddenly acting strange?

Venusaur, being a seasoned Pokémon, wasn't intimidated by Kingdra and bared its teeth in response with a roar.
