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

After a brief explanation, Lü Jiayi left Mu Yun's room with a reluctant Chi Duoduo.

With the provincial competition over, training will continue to prepare for next year's college entrance examination.

With Chi Duoduo's current skill level, she could easily apply to most universities for a trainer major.

However, there is still a considerable distance to go before one can become a top performer.

Unless the competition allows the trainer to participate personally.

For a long time, Chi Duoduo probably couldn't find any rivals.

[Pure-blooded True Man (Liu Jianhao): Brother Yun, wanna take some photos?]

Around 6 p.m., Liu Jianhao sent a message to Mu Yun.

[Cloud Reader (Muyun): (Psyduck Question Mark.JPG)]

Why take photos so late at night?

and many more......

Mu Yun suddenly remembered the bet Zhao Hailong had mentioned to him.

The competition had just ended in the morning, and in the afternoon I was already dragging people to take photos.

Liu Jianhao, you're really something!

[Cloud Reader (Muyun): Location.]

He didn't mean anything by it; he was just worried that Liu Jianhao might overdo it and get detained.

As for Liu Hesheng's women's clothing, he didn't care much.

Okay, I am a little bit concerned.

After all, he had never seen a man dressed as a woman in person.

Especially a man as handsome as him.

[Pure-Blooded True Man (Liu Jianhao): (Location Shared)]

After hailing a Tutto taxi, Mu Yun quickly arrived at the address sent by Liu Jianhao.

This is a professional photo studio, and it seems to have been booked out for the entire place. Apart from two staff members responsible for reception, there is no one else in sight.

It wasn't until Mu Yun was led into a filming location in the backyard that he saw Liu Jianhao.

Besides Liu Jianhao, Zhao Hailong and Wu Tu are also here.

At this moment, Liu Jianhao's face was flushed, and his eyes seemed to sparkle like stars, clearly showing his great anticipation.

As for Zhao Hailong and Wu Tu, they seemed somewhat restless, huddled in the corner chairs, looking quite uncomfortable.

"Brother Yun, you're finally here!"

Upon seeing Mu Yun, Zhao Hailong breathed a sigh of relief and quickly reached out to greet him.

Wu Tu, standing to the side, seemed to have found a savior, and his tense emotions eased somewhat.

"It can't be that serious. It's just changing clothes and taking pictures. It's not like it's just the two of you going. What's there to be nervous about?" Mu Yun said, somewhat puzzled.

With the internet so developed now, there are countless men dressed as women, and there are also cross-dressing masters, so there's no need to be so nervous.

"Brother Yun, you don't know, Liu Hesheng brought a whole team with him when he came, including professional makeup artists and bodyguards to clear the area. I'm really afraid he'll drag us over to get our makeup done too," Zhao Hailong explained nervously.

Wu Tu, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but nod in agreement.

Should he dress as a woman?

Why not let him jump into the sea!

"..."

Upon hearing this, Mu Yun was speechless.

No, even Liu Jianhao isn't worried, why are you two?

Besides, what kind of looks do cross-dressing masters have? You two dark-skinned, muscular young men, why are you dressed as women?

"They're here!"

Just as Mu Yun was thinking about how to tactfully reassure them not to worry, Liu Jianhao's excited voice rang out.

A pale yellow light suddenly shone from a dimly lit area not far away, resembling a stage. The stage-like curtain slowly unfolded, and a tall figure dressed in a black gothic dress slowly walked out from behind the curtain.

She seemed a little uncomfortable, her eyes lowered shyly, and she walked very slowly.

Under the light, her fair cheeks, adorned with light black makeup, still bore a lingering blush, giving her otherwise glamorous and mysterious look a unique charm that evoked pity.

"Glug!"

The silence in the shooting room was broken by the sound of someone swallowing.

Mu Yun glanced back and noticed that Zhao Hailong and Wu Tu's eyes were both wide open.

Especially Zhao Hailong, whose dark face was even flushed.

The tension from before had completely disappeared.

"Wow, Lao Liu, your cross-dressing is amazing! And your makeup and hair are way better than mine!"

Liu Jianhao gave a thumbs-up and clapped his hands with great enthusiasm.

Usually, it's his older sister who takes pictures of him in women's clothing; this is the first time he's taken pictures of someone else.

I have to say, it actually feels pretty good.

"If you're going to shoot, just shoot! Stop talking nonsense!"

Liu Hesheng, dressed as a woman, was completely different from usual; his emotions were somewhat unstable, and his tone of voice was much harsher.

Clearly, he is a normal man and doesn't particularly like wearing women's clothing.

"OK!"

Liu Jianhao expressed his understanding, made a gesture, and immediately started taking pictures.

Soon, photos from various angles appeared on Liu Jianhao's phone. After that, Liu Hesheng changed into nine more sets of custom-made clothing.

While changing clothes, he felt frustrated for the first time that the two of them were almost the same size.

Otherwise, he could use the excuse that his clothes needed alterations to postpone the photoshoot.

If this drags on, Liu Jianhao might just forget about it.

Liu Jianhao: We must not forget, we must wait until the very end!

"I'm telling you, if you really want to film, go ahead and do it openly. What are you doing sneaking around here?"

In the corner, Mu Yun watched Zhao Hailong, who would pretend to have something to do and secretly take a picture with his phone, and Wu Tu, who was scratching his head and couldn't find the right moment, and said speechlessly.

We're all guys, it's just taking a picture, what's there to be embarrassed about?

It's like some kind of weird SSF (savage/abnormal) game.

"I didn't particularly think about it..."

Caught red-handed, Zhao Hailong blushed even more and stammered a low voice.

This expression immediately alerted Mu Yun.

Oh no, has my bro been turned gay...?

Hailong, have you forgotten that you are also the only male in your family? Don't go astray!

And Wu Tu, you only love action comics and aren't interested in women?

Wu Tu (stretching his neck weakly): He's not either...

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

The photoshoot ended quickly, and Liu Hesheng, now dressed normally, returned to his gentle yet slightly weak demeanor.

Afterwards, the five of them had a simple meal. During the meal, Zhao Hailong and Wu Tu were very quiet. Apart from occasionally glancing at Liu Hesheng, they did nothing out of line.

Clearly, they were simply caught off guard and momentarily blinded by the other person's women's clothing.

After a short late-night snack, Mu Yun and the other three returned to the hotel.

"Brother Yun, do you think I can get into Heijiang University?"

On the way back, Zhao Hailong suddenly asked this question.

"It takes some effort for a professional trainer."

Mu Yun replied subconsciously.

As the only university in Northeast China to be among the top ten, Heijiang University faces fierce competition every year.

Especially in the most popular Trainer profession, almost everyone is a local genius.

"Why are you asking this? Isn't your goal Changqing University?" Mu Yun asked tentatively, his eyes slightly narrowed.

"Hey, just asking, just asking."

Zhao Hailong chuckled.

Liu Jianhao, who was unaware of the background, complained as usual: "It's good enough that you can get into Changda University. Don't even dream about Heilongjiang University. I guess only Brother Yun in our class can get in easily."

"It would be good if Brother Yun could pass the exam."

Unusually, Zhao Hailong did not refute Liu Jianhao, but instead muttered something to himself.

"???"

Mu Yun sensed something was amiss.

Back at the hotel, out of concern for his brother, Mu Yun couldn't resist knocking on Zhao Hailong's door with a beer in hand.

After a night of deep conversation, Mu Yun finally got a definite answer from the drunken Zhao Hailong.

The good news is that he is straight and not gay.

The bad news is that he genuinely likes Liu Hesheng's women's clothing and wants to see it again.

Mu Yun didn't think much of it.

It's just for show, no big deal.

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

The next day, Mu Yun and his group arrived at the station early.

It's worth mentioning that because Newleaf Cat is a Pokémon egg, it doesn't require a Pokémon certificate or a ticket; you only need to show proof of ownership.

Around noon, Mu Yun and the others returned to Songjiang City.

As the provincial champion, Mu Yun received not only official rewards from the competition organizers but also a substantial reward from the Songjiang City government.

Considering that Muyun already has many elves to raise, they did not reward elf eggs, but instead directly approved a reward of one million Alliance Coins.

Furthermore, you can use the Trainers Association's internal account to enjoy higher privileges and a 30% discount.

"Work hard, and you can visit our Trainers Association more often in the future."

Yan Wu, wearing black-rimmed glasses, patted Mu Yun on the shoulder with a smile, offering encouragement.

As a Ghost-type Trainer, he naturally had some knowledge of the Evergreen family.

They also knew the true value of Mu Yun's victory over Liu Hesheng!

It's no exaggeration to say that one day in the future, Songjiang City might really produce a true dragon!

Whether he joins the Patrol Department or the Trainers Association is irrelevant.

As long as he is from Songjiang City, he will always benefit from the small city where he was born and raised.
