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

Gyarados can fly? Ye Feng was a little confused, but considering that Gyarados is a dual-type Water and Flying, it seems... quite reasonable, right?

Gyarados pondered for a while beside Ye Feng, then tried to lower its head, but felt something was wrong. It raised its head again and looked around its body, its eyes lighting up when it saw its tail.

"Hey, wait a minute, Gyarados, what are you trying to do?" Ye Feng propped himself up, dumbfounded as Gyarados turned around and lashed at him with its tail, which was wrapped in water.

I'm blanching your tail? Are you trying to kill me?

"Kirullian, stop it!"

Ye Feng screamed and scrambled backward. Kirlia teleported over and used "Steel" to forcefully block the attack from the Water Tail.

Ye Feng clutched his chest, his heart pounding wildly. What a close call! He'd almost been sent away by his own Pokémon.

"Lu?!"

Kirlia questioned loudly, and Arcanine stood in front of Ye Feng, assuming a battle stance.

"Wait a minute." Ye Feng waved his hand. He didn't believe that Gyarados would attack him. Wild Gyarados that evolved out of anger might attack their trainers out of control, but his own Gyarados had been slowly raised from Magikarp. There must be some reason for this.

"Roar~" Gyarados lowered its head and let out a few aggrieved cries.

"Huh? Give me a massage??" Ye Feng was completely bewildered. What the heck was a massage?

Kirlia and Arcanine were also dumbfounded, looking at each other and realizing that they had both turned into huge question marks.

"Roar~" Gyarados's roar became increasingly aggrieved, its mood plummeting to its lowest point.

"Huh? Seeing Kirlia and Arcanine massaging me, you want to help too? Uh..." Ye Feng scratched his head. Although his Pokémon's actions were very touching, but...

Looking at Gyarados's muscular body, it's strong, but the biggest problem is, it doesn't have hands! — At least Arcanine has claws, and I can't use Water Tail to massage me, can I? That would just kill me.

"Alright, Gyarados, I know you mean well, but you..." Ye Feng stretched out his hands and patted them up and down, "You don't have hands or feet, so you can't give me a massage, right?"

"Roar~" Gyarados was extremely disappointed, its head lowered even further and it slammed its head to the ground, its whole body bent into the shape of a ∩.

I originally thought it would be able to give its trainer massages after evolving, but...

"Hey~ don't be disappointed," Ye Feng patted Gyarados's big belly, "Although you can't give me a massage, you seem to be able to fly?"

Gyarados's eyes lit up, it roared, and then slowly floated up, but it didn't last long before falling back to the ground.

"roar~"

It seems he can't control flight-type energy, so he can't fly? Ye Feng roughly understood.

This is easy to solve; just train it more, and you'll have a flying Pokémon of your own.

"Kirlia, when Gyarados just evolved, did you sense anything?" Ye Feng asked Kirlia.

Kirullian pondered for a moment, then nodded and shook her head.

It seems that Kirlia can vaguely sense changes in life energy, but perhaps the sample size is insufficient. If she observes the evolution process a few more times, she might be able to sense it more clearly.

Ye Feng decided that after returning, he would post on the forum and pay to observe the evolution process of other people's Pokémon.

However, Pokémon evolution can be quite sudden, so it's probably not easy to encounter one.

Now that Gyarados has evolved, Ye Feng doesn't plan to do anything else. Anyway, he's already caught all 30 Pokémon, so he won't waste time collecting resources.

During the remaining time of military training, Ye Feng decided to stay by the pond and give Gyarados special training so that it could get used to its evolved power as soon as possible.

There are also wild Pokémon in the secret realm that can be used as opponents in actual combat.

After all, the change in power from Magikarp to Gyarados is enormous, and it takes time to get used to it.

When Gyarados evolves, it learns quite a few moves.

After Gyarados's demonstration, Ye Feng learned about Tackle, Whirlpool, Aqua Tail, Iron Tail, and Crunch.

It's said that Gyarados has mastered both Water Tail and Iron Tail at the same time. Could it be related to the tail that Magikarp used to whip out phantoms?

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

Ye Feng was so engrossed in training that time passed quickly.

Military training is over.

After receiving the notification from the recorder, Ye Feng rode Arcanine to the entrance of the secret realm—Gyarados had not yet fully mastered flight and was very slow. Ye Feng also did not have the corresponding training resources on hand, so he could only deal with it later.

"Everyone, long time no see!"

When Ye Feng arrived, there were already 5 or 6 people waiting there.

"Ye Feng, it's been a long time!" Everyone greeted Ye Feng warmly when they saw him arrive.

The secret realm experience that Ye Feng imparted to them before they parted ways was of great help to them, so they were all very grateful to Ye Feng.

"Damn it, your Arcanine is so cool, I want one too!" Member C bit his hand, tears of envy streaming down his face.

"Hehe, look!" Club member F threw out a Poké Ball, and a little Ponyta appeared in front of everyone.

"A little horse? You actually ran into one? You're so lucky!" Everyone was incredibly envious.

Rapidash, the evolved form of Ponyta, is just as impressive as Arcanine and is also a very cool Pokémon.

Soon, the rest of the people arrived.

Everyone gained a lot from this military training, and almost everyone caught 30 Pokémon.

Ye Feng also received an extra Pokémon egg, making him probably the best performer.

"Everyone, you've worked hard these past few days. But judging from your appearance, you've also gained a lot."

As soon as they emerged from the secret realm, the waiting advisor greeted them, looked at everyone, and nodded in satisfaction.

"Of course, I'm completely different now than before." Dazhuang touched his nose, his face full of confidence.

"Okay, let's go back."

Chapter 106 Freshman Exchange Competition

When Ye Feng returned to the dormitory, Guo Pengfei had already arrived.

"Afei, how's your haul?" Ye Feng released Kirlia and Arcanine to feed them, while placing Gyarados in the artificial lake downstairs.

Guo Pengfei was feeding a Zubat when he heard Ye Feng's voice and turned around, saying, "It's alright. I caught a Zubat, and its ultrasonic waves are very useful to me. How about you, boss?"

"I caught 30 Pokémon, and also a Kecoro egg. Oh, and Magikarp evolved too." Ye Feng recounted his haul, which seemed pretty good.

However, Ye Feng still didn't understand what had happened with the Pokémon egg that had fallen from the sky...

"Where's the Pokémon egg?" Guo Pengfei looked around and realized that Ye Feng didn't have the Pokémon egg with him.

"I've temporarily handed it over to the incubation center; they're more professional," Ye Feng said.

After all, he's just a trainer, not a proper breeder, and Pokémon eggs can't eat energy cubes anyway.

Since the school has incubators, it is obviously more appropriate to let professionals incubate the talent without paying too many credits.

However, he also needs to take care of the Pokémon egg regularly so that the Cocodora inside can get used to his presence; otherwise, it would be awkward if it didn't want to follow Ye Feng after hatching.

As for Guo Pengfei, Ye Feng had considered him, but freshman year studies are never easy, and Guo Pengfei seems to be researching some new machine recently, so he wouldn't take up any of his extra time.

Guo Pengfei thought for a moment and seemed to agree: "Boss, you should be able to get a lot of credits this time, right? Have you decided which Pokémon you want to get?"

Ye Feng shook his head: "No rush."

Now that we have the Cocodora's Pokémon egg, there's no rush to get the Pokémon. Anyway, the half-price discount can be kept until graduation. Even if we don't need it, we can transfer it to someone else for some credits.

Moreover, what Ye Feng cared about even more was the feeling of palpitation he had that day in the breeding house. It was obvious that there was a special elf there, but he didn't know what its true form was.

I asked the people at the incubator, and they all said they weren't sure.

Ye Feng planned to take advantage of the opportunity to take care of the Pokémon egg and try his luck, hoping to encounter that mysterious Pokémon.

As for what comes next, aside from classes on energy science and techniques, Ye Feng plans to focus all his energy on training.

After Magikarp evolves, Ye Feng will be qualified to join the school team, and he needs to prepare for it.

Kirlia continued to practice using Spiral Fireball; after the training during the final period of military training, she could now use it consistently. Arcanine's strength still had much room for growth, and she would continue to improve through battles. As for Gyarados...

Summer goes and autumn comes, but it's not that dramatic.

A week later, the results of the military training came out.

Many people also caught 30 Pokémon and handed in a small amount of resources—first-year students have a high demand for resources and most of them keep them for themselves.

However, Ye Feng also had a spirit egg, which boosted his score significantly, so he naturally won first place in the military training results.

Next, Imperial University hosted its first major event – ​​the Freshman Exchange Competition.

Every year, after the military training, Imperial University and several other universities hold an exchange competition for freshmen.

This time, the home game is at Imperial University.

The competition was open to voluntary participants, and Ye Feng originally didn't plan to participate, as he was busy with training and his thesis.

But when he saw the competition details and looked at the first-place prize, his eyes immediately turned red.

The first place winner of the competition can receive a substantial academic credit reward—so generous that Ye Feng could directly obtain a Pokémon with these credits plus a 50% discount, which is much more than the academic credits he earned by getting first place in military training and exchanging 30 Pokémon.

What Ye Feng cared about most was the hidden reward—the champion of the exchange competition would be qualified to challenge members of the school team, and winning would bring additional rewards.

Since they can give so many credits, the hidden rewards must be pretty good too.

Forget writing papers and training, go compete!
