Pokémon: Hard work pays off, moves can be upgraded infinitely.

September marks the start of the new academic year for many universities, and it's also the beginning of a wonderful life for young college students.

But for Mu Yun, who is still in his senior year of high school, September is just an ordinary month, not much different from August.

It's still the same routine between home and school: training, classes, cooking, then more training, more classes.

Such a fulfilling and regular life makes time fly by.

Before we knew it, it was the end of September, and a new month-end assessment was about to begin.

..............................

Inside the gymnasium of Songjiang No.1 High School.

The 20 students from the small class stood neatly in the field, in addition to the students from the regular elf class who had arrived earlier and stood on one side.

One of them was the girl who was eliminated from the small class last time.

She has clearly worked very hard this past month and has successfully earned the qualification to take on the challenge; it remains to be seen whether she will succeed.

"The assessment rules are the same as last month, so I won't go into details. Everyone, please come forward one by one to draw a number," Wang He announced.

Soon, Mu Yun and the others finished drawing their number plates.

This time he is number 17.

"Great! Finally, we don't have to fight with Brother Yun anymore!" Zhao Hailong said excitedly after seeing the number in Mu Yun's hand.

Actually, Zhao Hailong didn't think there was anything wrong with losing to Mu Yun, but he was very unhappy that Liu Jianhao, that lucky bastard, always got ahead of him.

Now things are much better. He drew number 1 this time, so he won't be able to face Mu Yun before the quarterfinals.

"Pshaw, what incredible luck."

Liu Jianhao, standing to the side, looked at the number 9 plate in his hand and muttered something.

Ma Sitong, on the other hand, looked a little unnatural because the number she drew was 18.

This means that her first opponent is Mu Yun!

Even with her confidence, she didn't think she could win against this "god" who was recognized by the whole class.

I just don't know how long I can hold out under him...

Ma Sitong raised her head and looked at Mu Yun beside her, her eyes burning with fighting spirit.

Even if the odds of winning are slim, she will not give up!

As if noticing Ma Sitong's gaze, Mu Yun turned around and glanced at her, returning a gentle smile.

After spending two months together, Mu Yun had come to know Ma Sitong quite well.

I know she's a very strong-willed girl.

The fact that they're staring straight at me like that probably means they've drawn my opponent's card.

As expected, as each match began, Ma Sitong showed no intention of playing.

It wasn't until the eighth match ended and the ninth match began that Ma Sitong and he got up together.

"Don't hold back later, let me see your true strength!"

On the way, Ma Sitong gently moved closer to Mu Yun and whispered something.

During regular training sessions, Wang He personally directed the training of the elves and Mu Yun, and never let him spar with anyone else.

Therefore, Ma Sitong was also unsure how big the gap was between herself and Mu Yun.

She wanted to take advantage of this rare opportunity to see the difference between them!

Only by recognizing the gap can we better strive to catch up!

Are you sure?

Mu Yun glanced at the girl who had a rather heroic appearance.

A month of hard training has completely transformed Xiao Du. Not to mention his peers, Mu Yun feels that he can easily fight against freshmen who have been training their Pokémon for a year.

"I'm sure!"

Ma Sitong's gaze was firm, and her words were resolute.

She's not the kind of little girl who cries and whine after losing a match; her goal is to become a powerful woman like Zang Linyu, the champion of the Southern Region.

She could accept just a few failures.

"Okay, I agree."

Seeing this, Mu Yun didn't say anything more and nodded in agreement.

In a competition, giving it your all is a sign of respect.

Soon, the two arrived at the battlefield.

The referee was still the same teacher of the Moro moth.

To be honest, he's really stubborn. You can see him at every assessment, and he doesn't give the other judges a chance at all!

"Please release your spirits!"

"The referee announced."

"Go, little Ponyta!"

Ma Sitong immediately threw out the Poké Ball.

..............................

Another month passed, and Little Pony successfully broke through level 20, reaching the senior level.

In terms of moves, she has gained an even more perfect skill – high-speed movement!

With the added advantage of high-speed movement, neither Wu Tu's Onix nor Zhao Hailong's Rhinoceros were a match for them.

Even when facing a Water-type Pokémon with a type disadvantage, it can still win.

It can be said that Ma Sitong is the strongest in the small class, second only to Mu Yun.

This is also why she is confident that she can hold out against Mu Yun for a long time.

Unfortunately, sometimes the gap between first and second place can be even larger than the gap between second and tenth place...

"Go on, Little Du."

Mu Yun also sent out his own initial spirit.

..............................

In just one month, Xiao Du has reached level 26. With multiple potential enhancements and characteristic enhancements, its level far surpasses that of other Pokémon of the same age. At its current rate, it will be able to reach the professional level in at most another month.

The speed of improvement is far ahead of the competition!

In addition, almost all of his moves have reached the Break Limit +2 level, except for the two newly learned moves, Brick Break, which is still only at the Break Limit +1 level due to time constraints.

In terms of potential, after consuming a full seven limit-breaking points, he successfully went from the Overlord level to the Gym level, and is only two limit-breaking points away from the potential to be upgraded to the Elite Four level.

In addition to these, Xiao Du's move power has also been significantly increased.

Currently, the power of moves with normal attributes has been increased by 120%, and the highest Bug attribute has reached an astonishing 150%.

Adding the 50% power bonus from moves of this attribute, the total bonus is 200%.

It can be said that even without the feature of hitting vital points, Xiao Du's every attack is equivalent to having four attack buffs, which can achieve a terrifying three times the damage!

With the added benefit of hitting vital points, the damage is absolutely explosive!
