It's perfectly reasonable for me, a fisherman, to catch a Georgios, right?

The sharp nails grazed Lucario's hard, steel-like skin, leaving only faint white marks.

Just like the bite attack before, it can only cause minor damage to Lucario.

Dark and Normal type moves only deal half the damage.

At the same time, Lucario's fist landed on Persian's waist and abdomen.

The effect is outstanding!!

"Cat~!!!"

"Cat~!!!"

The Persian let out a cry of pain, but the battle was not over yet. Lucario had already restrained the Persian with his left hand to prevent it from escaping.

"Dog, Aura Missile!!"

As Qin Ming relayed his command, Lucario conjured a gray-black wave missile in its right palm and launched it at close range at Persian.

With a cross slash, a rock smash, and then a barrage of missiles fired at close range, the cat boss was brought down by the multiple powerful attacks!

His eyes were darting around, and he had completely lost his fighting ability.

[Hint: Your Lucario defeated the rival Persian, gaining 8000 experience points.]

"Luca~!!!"

"Luca~!!!"

"Well done, dog!!"

Lucario abandoned the defenseless Persian and turned around to give Qin Ming a cheerful high-five.

Before evolving, when battling the Cat Boss, you need to find a way to lure your opponent in order to defeat them.

However, as Riolu evolves into Lucario, it can easily defeat its opponent simply by trading moves without any strategy.

The dramatic changes in Lucario filled Qin Ming with confidence.

"Dog, pack your things!"

"Let's get out of here!"

In addition to providing Qin Ming with information, the stronger Lucario also allowed Qin Ming to explore deeper levels of the secret realm.

"Luca~!!!"

Lucario was also extremely happy about becoming stronger.

……

……

The sun was setting, and it was 8 p.m.

At the entrance to the Meteor Waterfall Secret Realm lies the Secret Realm Management Office established by the Dragon Kingdom Training Association.

In a room, Qin Ming's tutor Guo Jianguo, along with the tutors from Trainer Class 2 and Trainer Class 3, were all gathered together.

In front of them was a large radar image.

The radar image shows a large number of flashing white dots.

Each white dot represents one of the three trainer students.

The location of each trainer student is detected by radar bracelets, and the trainer will go to their location to provide support as soon as they send a distress call.

Ensuring the safety of new trainer students is the most important thing in every Secret Realm Military Training.

After all, every child who can study the Trainer major at Deep City University has gone through the brutal Pokémon college entrance examination, passed the Trainer Qualification Certification of the Training Association, and undergone devilish Secret Realm training before entering the Secret Realm.

They are undoubtedly elites, and some of them may become the pride of Shenzhen University in the future, and even be crucial to the future of China.

From the moment the new students entered the secret realm, three professional trainer mentors stayed here, constantly monitoring the safety of the new students.

With a creak, the room door was pushed open.

A middle-aged man walked steadily closer.

Upon seeing the visitor, Guo Jianguo and the counselors from the other two classes greeted him in unison: "Principal!"

The middle-aged man was Xu Ruping, the president of Shenzhen University and also known as a legendary trainer.

"Everyone sit down."

Xu Ruping waved his hand slightly, casually sat on the sofa, and looked up at the radar chart.

Seeing three white dots representing students on the radar chart in the relatively high-risk B-level area, I asked curiously, "Which classes do these three white dots represent?"

The counselor of Class 2 spoke up: "Principal, the white dot on the left is a student in my class named Liang Zhixin. His starter Pokémon is Squirtle, and he just entered the B-level area two days ago."

Xu Ruping nodded slightly and smiled, "Then, of the remaining two, one of them is from your class, Xiao Guo, right?"

Guo Jianguo smiled and said, "Principal, the remaining two are from our class."

"Oh?"

Xu Ruping was clearly intrigued: "Besides Old Song's daughter, did anyone else in your class enter the B-level area?"

"What's your name? Did you also just enter the B-level area a couple of days ago?"

His name is Qin Ming.

Guo Jianguo replied, "He was the first student to enter the B-level area."

"oh?!"

Xu Ruping's expression was full of curiosity.

……

……

Chapter 60, Diligence Determines the Lower Limit: The Lucario Race

"Qin Ming?"

Xu Ruping kept repeating the name as if searching for information about it in his mind, but after searching, he found no relevant information about the name.

He asked, "Was he the first freshman to reach the B-level area?"

“What a surprise!”

Guo Jianguo explained, "Qin Ming, this freshman, set off towards the B-level area after entering the secret realm, and reached the B-level area in just about 5 days."

"And they stayed in area B2."

"Stay on B2 the whole time?"

Xu Ruping frowned slightly and said, "It seems that this student named Qin Ming is very well-planned and made preparations before entering the secret realm."

"In other words, Qin Ming's initial Pokémon is quite strong, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to reach the B2 area in such a short time."

Guo Jianguo replied, "Qin Ming's starter Pokémon is a Riolu."

"Riolu?!"

Xu Ruping's face showed considerable surprise as he exclaimed, "The starter Pokémon is Riolu! That's a really good prospect!!"

"If nothing unexpected happens, Riolu's strength is guaranteed to be at least Gym Leader level."

Xu Ruping had never seen Qin Ming's Riolu, yet he was so certain that Qin Ming's Riolu could reach the Gym level.

This attitude made Guo Jianguo and the other two counselors look puzzled.

"hehe."

Seeing the expressions on the three people's faces, Xu Ruping explained, "Everyone knows that most elves have average potential and are mostly mediocre."

"Without special circumstances, many people will never be able to evolve successfully throughout their lives."

"But the Riolu species is different. As long as they don't have physical disabilities or hidden injuries, Riolu can evolve into Lucario."

At this point, Guo Jianguo and the others looked even more puzzled. Xu Ruping countered, "Let me ask you, have you ever seen a Lucario below the level of a near-Champion?"

Shake your head!

Guo Jianguo and the others honestly shook their heads.

Xu Ruping continued, "You haven't seen it before, primarily because Lucario is a relatively rare species. But that's why I said Qin Ming's Riolu is guaranteed to reach Gym level."

"That's because the Riolu race of elves are just too diligent!"

"Even with limited potential, a hardworking Riolu will reach the evolution standard through its own efforts."

"Even with limited potential, the hardworking Riolu will continue to grow stronger through its own efforts."

"As long as the trainer doesn't go down the wrong path, even a Riolu with limited potential can evolve and become stronger through its own efforts."

"There may be Riolus with poor strength, but I have never seen a lazy Riolu."

"That's why I said earlier that the minimum requirement is the dojo level."

After Xu Ruping's explanation, Guo Jianguo and the others suddenly understood.

That's right, talent determines the upper limit, while effort determines the lower limit.
