This team has a total of 6 members, including one medical personnel, one intelligence and logistics personnel, and the rest are all combat personnel, all of whom are high-level trainers with rich experience in exploring and pioneering secret realms.

"There's far too little information useful for pioneering the area." Xia Xiaogu, an experienced intelligence officer, was carefully reading the advance team's initial report on the island's secret realm.

"There's nothing we can do. Those giant Pokémon are too strong. We can't defeat them by sheer numbers. The advance team was unprepared and it all failed. In fact, it's a stroke of luck that there were no casualties," said Captain Ma Juncai, a senior trainer in his thirties, with a sigh.

"Sigh!" Xia Xiaogu shook her head, put the documents away, there was no point in looking at them anymore.

At this moment, Master Du arrived with a young man.

Xia Xiaogu, who was looking around waiting for his teammates to finish, suddenly had a bright look in his eyes. What a handsome guy! Most of the exploration team members are grown men. It's been a long time since I've seen such a young and fresh-faced guy.

However, this person looks somewhat familiar; I feel like I've seen him somewhere before.

"Everyone," Master Du clapped his hands, drawing everyone's attention.

"Let me introduce you all. This is Dr. Ye Feng. I think you've all heard of him, right?" Master Du said.

Ye Feng raised his hand.

"Ye Feng?" Ma Juncai was stunned for a moment. He felt that the name sounded familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was for a moment.

"Ye Feng!" Xia Xiaogu exclaimed in surprise, and everyone else looked over. "Xia, do you know him?"

Xia Xiaogu nodded excitedly and said, "Of course! Captain, you forgot? It's Dr. Ye, the one who announced Mega Evolution! He's also the youngest PhD in Pokémon Studies in Chinese history!"

"It's him?" Ma Juncai's eyes widened slightly. He remembered why the name sounded familiar. Just a few days ago, he had been talking about getting a mega stone!

"That's right, not only in the research field, he's also a high-level trainer, plus Mega Evolution, a researcher with master-level combat power is rarer than a national treasure! And he's so handsome!" Xia Xiaogu chuckled, wriggling around like an eel, making the people next to him involuntarily move away.

Ma Juncai's lips twitched slightly. Xia Xiaogu often complained that the team was full of men and there were no young men. Being with men every day, she was starting to become a man herself.

The members of the investigation team were extremely surprised after learning the identity of the young man in front of them.

They weren't exactly close to Ye Feng, but they weren't strangers either.

The recent buzz surrounding Mega Evolution and Energy Cubes brought Ye Feng into the spotlight of Chinese trainers.

Ye Feng, the youngest PhD in Pokémon Studies in China, possesses the skills of a high-level trainer and is also handsome, which has unintentionally earned him a large number of fans. People who know him want to joke about it with him, but they can't get in touch with him.

Those who could be contacted, such as Gu Yangzhou and the masters, Ning Xian, Shang Yixue, Zhang Qiang, and others, felt that there was nothing to be proud of in this matter, which led to Ye Feng himself being completely unaware of it.

"Dr. Ye will be entering the secret realm with you all. You must protect him well. He is the most valuable talent in China!" Master Du said with a serious expression.

Although Ye Feng is quite strong, anything can happen in the secret realm, especially in a newly opened one. He still needs to rely on more experienced exploration team members to protect him to feel at ease.

"Don't worry, Master Du," Ma Juncai replied calmly.

Such an important talent should certainly be protected. After all, he knew very well that the great victory in the World Masters Tournament was due to the Mega Evolution proposed by Ye Feng.

As for Ye Feng's strength as a high-level trainer... in the secret realm, strength isn't the only factor.

"Don't worry, Master Du, I will protect Dr. Ye closely!" Xia Xiaogu patted his chest, attracting the attention of those around him, but he immediately coughed and looked away.

"Master Du, it's not that serious. I can protect myself." Ye Feng scratched his head.

He thought there was no need to be so cautious. He had been to many secret realms before. Although he might not be as good as a professional exploration team, protecting himself inside was not a difficult thing.

He even went into the secret realm alone to save Zhang Qiang back then.

“That won’t do.” Master Du glared at him.

"Alright." Seeing Master Du's serious expression, Ye Feng had no choice but to agree.

He couldn't very well say that he came here to seek life-and-death trials to break through to the master level, could he? If he said something so reckless, he would definitely be kept under strict surveillance.

Anyway, once we're in the secret realm, Master Du can't interfere anymore. We'll deal with it when the time comes.

Ye Feng and the members of the exploration team introduced themselves to each other.

The team members were very curious about Ye Feng and surrounded him, asking him all sorts of questions.

There are advanced trainers this young, but to achieve doctoral-level accomplishments in research is truly unique.

Ma Juncai and Master Du went to a corner.

"Master Du, what's going on in this secret realm? Why is even a PhD in Pokémon Studies joining the team?" Ma Juncai asked in a low voice.

If there's any information you don't know about this secret realm, you have to find out beforehand, otherwise you'll be doomed if something happens inside.

"Just think of it as exploring an S-rank secret realm. Ye Feng's purpose in coming here is to find out what's going on with those giant spirits," Master Du explained.

"I see." Ma Juncai breathed a sigh of relief, but in that case, it wasn't a big problem.

As for why Ye Feng was interested in giant spirits, he didn't understand the field of research at all, nor did he know the thoughts of these researchers. He just needed to do what he was supposed to do.

Next, Master Du explained some precautions.

The purpose of entering the secret realm this time is mainly to gather information and attempt to make contact with the giant spirit.

Ye Feng possesses the ability to communicate with spirits, and he is primarily responsible for tasks involving contact with giant spirits.

In addition, once you enter the secret realm, you cannot take any resources inside. If you encounter teams from other countries, you should also warn them.

Master Du has already communicated with the Sakura Country, and they are happy to cooperate knowing that a PhD in Pokémon Studies is present. As for some smaller countries, with both countries exerting pressure simultaneously, they probably won't dare to go too far.

However, in the secret realm, there are bound to be places that are not well managed, and some people may have ulterior motives. At that time, Ma Juncai and his team will need to be able to adapt to the situation.

Chapter 380 The Spirit Named Kapok XX

On a small island in the western Pacific Ocean, this is one of the entrances to a hidden island paradise.

Led by Ma Juncai, the group of seven entered the island's secret realm.

As a large-scale secret realm, the Island Secret Realm has more than a dozen smaller islands in addition to the five largest islands. They are almost no different from the outside world and are inhabited by varying numbers of elves.

However, this was not Ye Feng and his group's target. They went directly to the eastern part of the secret realm, to a small island that was still a long distance from the Five Islands.

After exploring one of the four outer islands, they will attempt to reach the fifth island in the center. If they encounter an attack from a giant Scaled Dragon, they will retreat immediately.

"Huh?!" Just as he passed through the entrance, Ye Feng felt something strange and subconsciously looked around.

"What's wrong, Dr. Ye?" Ma Juncai looked over.

"Just call me by my name," Ye Feng said, snapping out of his reverie. The repeated "Dr. Ye" made him a little embarrassed.

“That won’t do,” Ma Juncai said seriously, shaking his head.

"As you wish."

Just as he was passing through the entrance, Ye Feng suddenly felt a strange sensation, a sensation he had never experienced before when passing through the secret realm. He even vaguely sensed that the secret realm was rejecting him.

"What's going on?" Ye Feng frowned slightly.

"Keepes!" Suddenly, Tokkis jumped out and shouted at Ye Feng.

"What? You said there were four waveguides probing this area just now? Coming from the islands?" Ye Feng's eyes widened as he looked sharply at the four islands in the distance.

How did they manage to cover such a long distance? Ye Feng compared it to his own Tokiss and realized that such a distance was simply impossible.

Could it be that there are legendary elves on the four islands? Ye Feng narrowed his eyes.

Everything has an aura, and the stronger the Pokémon, the stronger its aura. However, Ye Feng cannot use auras, and the only Pokémon in the team that can use auras is Togekiss.

So, just like Gardevoir, he usually relies on psychic powers to perceive things. However, the range of psychic perception is not that large, which is why Ye Feng did not notice him.

If it weren't for Pokkis's discovery, Ye Feng would still be in the dark.

"Dr. Ye, what's going on?" Everyone looked serious when they saw Togekiss's strange appearance. They all knew that Togekiss was a Pokémon that controlled Aura. Could it have sensed something?

"Captain Ma, the situation has changed. If I'm not mistaken, there might be legendary spirits on the island," Ye Feng said.

"What? A legendary elf?" Ma Juncai's eyes widened, and the others looked at Ye Feng in shock as well.

"you sure?"

"I can't guarantee it, but it's better to be cautious," Ye Feng said cautiously.

Although he came with the purpose of gaining experience, facing a legendary spirit, let alone jumping on the edge of life and death, he was afraid that if he jumped over it, he would not be able to come back. How could he gain experience then?

While Ye Feng and the others hesitated, four spirits simultaneously took flight from the four outer islands and arrived above the central fifth island.

One of them has a black body, orange hair and legs, and each hand has half a shell, with special patterns printed on the shell;

The second one has a black upper body and a pink lower body that resembles a roly-poly toy;

The third one is a red and black elf, which at first glance looks a bit like a bull's head;

The fourth one, black and purple, bears a resemblance to a shark.

The four Pokémon floated above the central five islands, silently gazing at each other with expressions of surprise on their faces. After a moment, they looked in the same direction and flew off in that direction at the same time.

···

Just as everyone hesitated, wondering whether to continue exploring or return to report to Master Du, Ye Feng suddenly sensed four powerful beings flying towards them.

"Something's coming! Everyone be careful!" Ye Feng shouted a warning, while simultaneously releasing Gardevoir.

Everyone was startled and released their own Pokémon as well.

"Kapoo!" "Na nai!" "Ta tai!" "Chichi!"

Four unfamiliar Pokémon quickly appeared in everyone's sight, flying in the air at a distance and watching them.

"What kind of spirit is that?" Ma Juncai's eyes widened. With his rich experience, he immediately felt an overwhelming sense of pressure emanating from the other party.

Are there really legendary spirits?
