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

As for what the last dish was, Dream didn't say.

Ye Feng didn't ask any more questions. After all, he hadn't passed the trial yet, and he couldn't just tell him such a secret that concerned the safety of the World Tree.

Regice has a body made of ice, and its face has a "+" pattern made of seven yellow dots. Ye Feng didn't know if they were its eyes or signal lights. In any case, when Regice speaks or makes a sound, those yellow dots will flash, just like signal lights.

The three divine pillars were used to train Ye Feng's seven spirits.

Regice is responsible for Gengar and Gardevoir; Regirock is responsible for Gyarados, Arcanine, or Aggron; Registeel is responsible for Kingdra and Togekiss.

"Gengar, Shadow Ball, Gardevoir, Psychic!" Ye Feng commanded the battle with his eyes closed.

Since it was a battle against the Regirock, even if it was training, Ye Feng had to fight with all his might, so he had Gardevoir undergo Mega Evolution from the very beginning.

Gengar and Mega Gardevoir teamed up to fight Regice, and the battle was fairly even. After all, it was just training, and Regice didn't use its full strength, only using enough power to just suppress the two Pokémon.

The other two battlefields were roughly the same.

The elves were under considerable pressure, but Ye Feng was under even greater pressure.

He not only had to support Gardevoir's Mega Evolution, but also command three battlefields simultaneously. Otherwise, if the Pokémon were to fight the three legendary Regiments on their own, they would only be brutally defeated.

Ye Feng had never tried this kind of training before. He was like a spinning top, constantly turning around and taking turns commanding the three battlefields. Fortunately, the three divine pillars slowed down the pace of the battle, otherwise Ye Feng would have been too busy commanding to keep up.

Ye Feng raised objections to this, but Mew's point was that it's not enough to just train Pokémon; trainers themselves also need to train.

Although Ye Feng doesn't need to train like Master Ye to become a muscular man, it is necessary to train his mental strength.

In this kind of multitasking battle, Ye Feng would not command through language as usual, but would instead communicate with the spirit through telepathy and telepathy.

Multitasking while supporting Mega Evolution will greatly deplete Ye Feng's mental energy. By constantly recovering and squeezing it out, this simplest and most direct method of training is also currently the fastest.

Although King Poklandis left behind methods for cultivating mental strength, after translation, it was discovered that these methods were more accurately described as a slow enhancement of mental strength through special rituals and the use of various resources.

This method is more suitable for Gu Yangzhou to promote mental training, but not for Ye Feng.

Ye Feng doesn't have that much time.

Chapter 361 The Master Returns Home

As for why Ye Feng's mental strength needed to be trained, it was naturally for mega evolution.

When Ye Feng's mental strength reaches a certain level again, he will be able to proceed to the next stage of Mega Evolution—supporting the simultaneous evolution of multiple Pokémon.

Ye Feng once tried to have Gardevoir, Gyarados, and Aggron evolve at the same time.

However, he discovered that the mental energy consumption of multiple Pokémon Mega Evolving increases exponentially. With his current abilities, he could only support two Pokémon evolving simultaneously, and only for less than ten minutes, even shorter than Master Ye's single-evolution.

The battle that requires Ye Feng to Mega Evolve his second Pokémon is definitely not an ordinary battle, and ten minutes is simply not enough time.

Mega Evolution is achieved by using Key Stones and Mega Stones, through the strong bond between the Trainer and the Pokémon, to unleash the Pokémon's hidden power.

Note that it is the hidden power of the elves; the role of bonds in this is more like a threshold.

Evolution is not the power of Key Stones and Mega Stones; strictly speaking, these two only play a mediating and catalytic role.

After mastering Mega Evolution, Ye Feng discovered that trainers also expend mental energy.

Although this wasn't shown in the anime, judging from the people who have Mega Evolution, they are either Champions or Elite Four members, or people related to the protagonist Ash, or at least Gym Leaders, who are trainers of a high level. Ordinary people rarely appear.

This shows that mastering Mega Evolution depends not only on the Pokémon but also on the Trainer.

It's not something you can just use by randomly popping up a random face... I guess.

Only after Ye Feng was able to evolve two or more creatures simultaneously without any pressure did his training come to an end.

In this way, Ye Feng can now truly possess three master-level Pokémon. Although he had three before, it was 1 (Gengar) + 1 (one of the three) + 0.5*2 (the remaining two).

Those two 0.5s cannot be calculated simultaneously.

Even so, undergoing three consecutive Mega Evolutions would take a toll on Ye Feng, and the immense mental pressure would severely affect his ability to command in battle.

"Get out of the way! Arcanine, Extreme Speed! Gyarados, Iron Tail! Aggron, Charge!" Ye Feng gave the commands through telepathy.

Commanding battles through telepathy is far more efficient than using words; Ye Feng only needs to think a single thought for the spirit to understand his intentions.

Although there were three commands just now, it actually took less time than giving a verbal command like "Lightning Speed!"

As for why it's not used in regular battles... that's a bit unfair, since superpowers aren't widespread yet.

Furthermore, if there's no command element during a battle, to others, Ye Feng would just stand there blankly while the elves fight on their own.

Wouldn't that significantly reduce its entertainment value?

Besides, of course you have to shout out the names of your moves, right? Your damage output depends entirely on yelling, isn't it?

Training, rest, training, rest...

And so, the day's training finally came to an end.

Ye Feng and the elves breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.

In contrast, the three Divine Pillars seemed completely unaffected, leisurely strolling back to the World Tree.

"They're too strong. When can I be like them?" Ye Feng tilted his head, watching the three divine pillars' departing figures, and said enviously.

"Shauna!"

"Ow!"

"···"

Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, the elves responded listlessly, as if expressing their determination to become stronger.

"Okay, let's cheer each other on!" Ye Feng clenched his fist forcefully, but the next second his hand gave way and he fell to the ground.

"Phew, I'm out of energy. I'll take a nap." Ye Feng struggled to crawl to the side of the Growlithe, leaned against its warm body, and closed his eyes.

He soon started snoring.

The elves exchanged glances, slowly gathered around, leaned against each other, and soon fell asleep.

From a distance, Articuno watched this weary yet somewhat heartwarming scene, a thoughtful expression on its face.

···

And so, Ye Feng stayed in the World Tree for nearly a month, maintaining a high-intensity training regimen every day.

During this time, Dream kept searching everywhere for Hoopa and the Black Elf. On several occasions, he even caught the Black Elf destroying the secret realm and Hoopa capturing elves inside.

But for some reason, they ran away as soon as they saw Mew, as if they were afraid of it—or rather, afraid of Palkia and Dialga behind Mew?

It seems that Hoopa is still safe, because Hoopa did not summon the legendary Pokémon or Mew to fight them head-on.

During this time, Ye Feng also reported Hu Pa's matter to Gu Yangzhou.

Gu Yangzhou was scared half to death and almost gave up the Masters tournament and went straight back to China.

Ye Feng tried to persuade her for a long time, but in the end he could only ask Mew to personally intervene and guarantee that it would continue to search for Hoopa's whereabouts with Palkia and Dialga, and that Ho-Oh would also step in to protect China. Only then did Gu Yangzhou feel somewhat relieved.

With the assurances of several divine beasts, nothing bad would happen in the short term. In addition, Hoopa and the black elf did not cause destruction everywhere, but only caused trouble in the secret realm, so Gu Yangzhou was somewhat relieved.

However, he still ordered the association to secretly raise the alert level and be prepared to evacuate people at any time.

On the other hand, Mew could never figure out why Hoopa and the Dark Elf wanted to capture elves.

However, it does have some guesses about the reasons for destroying the secret realm.

As mentioned before, the secret realms contained a trace of the World Tree's power, but after those secret realms were destroyed, that trace of power did not return to the World Tree and its whereabouts are unknown.

The dream is suspected to have been taken by Hoopa and the Black Elf.

What do they want the power of the World Tree for? There are no spirits in this world that can use the power of the World Tree, not even Mew; only the World Tree itself can.

Do they want to do something to the World Tree? But that's impossible.

Although the secret realm exists independently in another space, it is always dependent on this world for its existence. The power of the World Tree only strengthens the stability of the secret realm and firmly binds it to this world; otherwise, the secret realm might have wandered into some turbulent current in spacetime.

Even if all the power in all the secret realms were gathered together, it would not pose any threat to the World Tree.

Not to mention, there are also legendary Pokémon of the Ho-Oh level living in some secret realms, and they won't let Hoopa and the Black Pokémon run rampant.

Moreover, if the World Tree were to be harmed, it would bring enormous disaster to this world. As long as they want to live here, they would never dare to do such a thing.

The reason we can't stop them now is because Hoopa is too good at escaping; we can't catch them at all. If they're lured away from their base, that would be terrible.

Palkia possesses the ability to warp space, but Hoopa's grappling rings clearly involve more than just space; there are other secrets involved. Even Palkia couldn't stop Hoopa from escaping.

What exactly are they trying to do? Dreamy was completely baffled.

Ye Feng knew even less.

His knowledge of legendary Pokémon is limited to anime and games.

After actually witnessing various legendary spirits, he discovered that his memories from his past life could only be used as a reference, not as the standard answer.

For example, Palkia and Dialga, these two legendary Pokémon, did not fight each other, but peacefully followed Mew to hunt down Hoopa and Black Spirit.

On this day, Ye Feng made a rare departure from the World Tree.

After winning the Masters World Championship, Gu Yangzhou finally led twelve masters back to China.

Next, it was time to announce the Mega Evolution paper and the inventor of the Energy Cube, and Ye Feng had to be present.

Furthermore, Ye Feng also needed to give Gu Yangzhou a detailed report on Hu Pa's matter.
