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

"I'm giving you a few days off so you can prepare for the training camp selection. If you have any questions, you can talk to me or your instructor, Mr. Wang."

After carefully collecting the registration information, Xu Defu said with a smile.

"The selection for this training camp will be held in Heijiang City, Heijiang Province. After you go back, please prepare the necessary items for your trip. Please come to the school to meet in three days."

After leaving the principal's office, Wang He gave these instructions.

Upon hearing this, Mu Yun and the others nodded, indicating that they understood.

In the blink of an eye, three days have passed quietly.

Just like last time when he went to Changqing City, Mu Yun only carried a black tactical backpack.

Although this trip was across provinces, it was essentially all within human cities, so going any further wouldn't make much difference.

Zhao Hailong and the others did the same, only Liu Jianhao still had large and small bags.

After gathering at the school, Wang He led them to Songjiang City Station.

Here, Mu Yun saw Yan Wu again, who wore black-rimmed glasses and liked to squint.

Clearly, he is still the team leader of the Songjiang City team this time.

After waiting for about ten more minutes, once everyone had arrived, the group walked into the station in a grand procession.

The journey to Changqing City was as smooth as the previous trips.

They arrived in Changqing City around noon.

Afterwards, led by Yan Wu, the group quickly arrived at the Changqing Battle Arena.

"Hey, Brother Yun!"

As soon as Mu Yun entered the battle arena, he saw several familiar faces.

The person who greeted him was none other than Chi Duoduo's senior, Lü Jiayi.

Beside her was Chi Duoduo, her eyes sparkling as she waved to him.

Besides the two of them, Mu Yun also saw the very tall Lin Youqi and the "sickly beauty" Liu Hesheng.

Clearly, they were all there for the training camp selection process.

After most of the people had arrived, everyone was led by staff into one of the large venues in an orderly manner.

An old man with gray hair and unremarkable appearance was standing on a high point in the stadium.

"Gentlemen, good afternoon. I am Niu Lanfang!"

Although Niu Lanfang looks a bit old, she speaks with a strong voice that carries throughout the entire venue without needing a megaphone.

After a brief self-introduction, Niu Lanfang offered some words of encouragement to the students present.

The gist of it is that as long as you try your best, whether you can persevere to the end or not, it's still a gain.

After the speech, everyone was taken to a temporary hotel to rest.

High-speed rail within the province operates frequently every day due to its short distances and relative safety.

However, when it involves crossing provincial borders, the number of times per day is very small.

Even between neighboring provinces like Changqing and Heijiang, there is only one bus departing each morning.

The following day, Mu Yun and the others boarded a train bound for Heijiang Province.

The journey was smooth and without any unexpected events. Around late afternoon, Mu Yun finally set foot on the land of Heijiang Province.

Although they are different provinces, Heijiang Province and Changqing Province are not significantly different in overall style.

Or rather, the three provinces in the entire Northeast region are not actually that different.

On the contrary, the three provinces have close ties, as evidenced by the fact that even a small city like Songjiang could borrow members of the Heijiang Provincial Trainers Association's special operations team.

In contrast, competition is much fiercer among some provinces.

In some places, fierce competition even occurs within the province.

Welcome everyone to Heijiang City!

As soon as I got out of the car, staff from the Heijiang City Trainers Association came to greet me.

The leaders exchanged pleasantries, while the ordinary staff members led them onto a bus to their hotel.

"Brother Yun, what do you think this training camp can train us on? I think Instructor Wang is a pretty good teacher."

That evening, Liu Jianhao and the others gathered in Mu Yun's room and chatted.

They were somewhat nervous about the upcoming training camp.

Because they knew very little about the training camp, except that they knew to meet in the hotel lobby at eight o'clock the next day, they knew nothing else.

"I don't know. Instructor Wang doesn't know much about this training camp either."

Mu Yun shook his head.

He didn't know much about the training camp either. According to Wang He, it seemed to be the first time the training camp had been held.

More accurately, it was the first large-scale collective event.

In the past, although there have been similar training camps, they were all conducted independently, and there were very few unified training sessions organized by region.

As a result, Wang He didn't know much about the reasons for holding this training camp.

He also asked Chi Duoduo, but Chi Duoduo had never heard Lü Shouchun mention it.

The only thing we wanted her to do was to work hard, get a good ranking, and be admitted to Heijiang University through the recommendation system.

"Who cares? It's just training. It's just a change of location." Zhao Hailong said in a rare carefree tone.

"really."

Wu Tu nodded in agreement.

This training camp, which brings together geniuses from three provinces, is the perfect opportunity for the protagonist of a shonen manga to become stronger and famous!

Perhaps his Onix will have a chance to evolve!

There are two known ways for Onix to evolve. One way is to spend money to buy a special metal coating, coat Onix's entire body, and then increase its growth level.

This method is simple and convenient, the only problem is that it costs money!

Metallic film is a special coating made using a steel-attribute spirit treasure.

Although the price is relatively cheap compared to Pokémon Treasures, the size of Onix means that it requires a huge amount of metal membrane, so the actual cost is not only not low, but actually quite high.

At least, unless his father gets incredibly lucky and digs up some rare mineral vein while mining, he won't have that extra money anytime soon.

The second method is to hone one's body in special terrain in the wild, thereby completing the evolution.

This method is not only relatively difficult, but also highly dependent on luck. Its only advantage is that it doesn't cost any money.

"That's true. It's just training, it's just a bit tough. I don't believe it can be more tiring than the security department's intensive training!"

Liu Jianhao nodded, unusually agreeing with Zhao Hailong's words.

After a brief chat, everyone went back to their rooms.

Silent all night.

The next morning, everyone dressed neatly and carrying backpacks gathered in the hall.

Because the number of students from the three provinces was too large, they were housed in three separate hotels.

Those gathered in the lobby were mostly acquaintances Mu Yun had met during the provincial competition.

Similarly, when everyone saw Mu Yun, they subconsciously recalled the fear of being dominated by Beedrill, Pidgeotto, and Vulpix.

That overwhelming sense of pressure, like Mount Tai collapsing before them, truly left an indelible shadow on their hearts.

After everyone had assembled, they boarded the bus in an orderly fashion, led by Niu Lanfang.

"Are we heading out of the city?"

As the bus started moving, the buildings were left behind and gradually moved further and further away, becoming increasingly sparse.

Clearly, this training camp is taking place outdoors.

Does this mean we're going to do some kind of field training again?

A glint flashed in Mu Yun's eyes.

If students from three provinces participate together, their points will be amazing!

Then we can exchange for ten or eight Elf Treasures and quickly level up the Fitness Exercise skill.

The dream of wrestling in the pool is no longer just a dream!

I was stuck on writing yesterday, deleting and rewriting, but I still couldn't finish. I took a nap, and I feel a bit better today.

Sigh, the more I look at the data, the less energetic I become. When I'm not passionate, the words I write are also very stale and uninspired.

I don't know when I'll be able to write a million words, it's tough...

that's all.
