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

"Instructor Zou, do I pass?"

Chi Duoduo looked at the dazed and stunned Ba Wanghua, feeling somewhat at a loss.

"Uh, it's approved. Go ahead."

Seeing that Ba Wang Hua was acting strangely, Zou Mingli had no time to care about anything else and directly announced that Chi Duoduo had passed.

Then he quickly stepped forward to check on the condition of the night-blooming cereus.

"Thank you, Instructor Zou. I'll be going now!"

After receiving approval, Chi Duoduo breathed a sigh of relief. After glancing at Ba Wanghua and confirming that she was indeed unharmed, she didn't linger and turned to run away.

Only after Chi Duoduo left did the trembling on Bawanghua's body gradually subside, and Doudou's eyes gradually came back to their senses.

"What happened to you just now? Are you feeling unwell?" Zou Mingli asked with a furrowed brow and concern.

He didn't think it was Chi Duoduo's fault, after all, he had seen the kick just now.

All I can say is that he truly lives up to his reputation as a disciple of the fighting king Lü Shouchun; he is incredibly strong.

However, this strength is mainly relative to human groups; compared to the Queen of the Night, it pales in comparison.

"Dafu..."

The Queen of Flowers shook her head, truly unsure how to describe her feelings just now.

The moment she touched Chi Duoduo's calf, it was as if a huge, indistinct figure appeared in her mind.

The figure was hidden in the darkness, making it difficult to see clearly. Only a pair of huge, earth-yellow eyes shone brightly, like the sun.

Its enormous eye, like an ancient altar, was so majestic it was breathtaking.

The moment she was swept over, it seemed to freeze time, making it impossible for her to think; her mind went completely blank.

It felt like an invisible giant hand was squeezing my heart, and an inexplicable fear filled my mind.

She even suspected that the other party could kill her instantly with just a single thought.

That feeling was countless times more terrifying than facing a champion-level Pokémon.

The matter of the "Overlord Flower" ultimately came to nothing.

Since she herself was confused, Zou Mingli, who couldn't understand Elvish, was even more bewildered.

After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the night-blooming cereus, they did not investigate further.

In the days that followed, everything returned to normal.

Only at lunch and dinner time were there two more students who didn't need to take the medicinal diet.

That is, Mu Yun and Chi Duoduo.

Many students envied this, but there was nothing they could do about it.

After all, their strength is undeniable, especially Mu Yun. The scene of him sending the Moon Bear flying with a single punch is still vivid in his mind.

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

The training grounds are located in the woodland.

A tall, muscular figure is fighting against a small, petite figure.

"Tongtong, keep going, hang in there, one more round of wild swings!"

The tall, strong figure was Chi Duoduo dressed as a bear.

That small figure was Mu Yun's Beedrill.

Although Xiao Du is over a meter tall and not small, it looks rather petite compared to the two-meter-tall bear in the costume.

"Hiss!"

(Carefully feel the trajectory of the moves; don't just swing randomly!)

While skillfully dodging the bear's attacks, Xiao Du gave instructions.

"Not bad, the bear-wearing character is making rapid progress."

Watching the increasingly fluid attacks of the bear-clad warrior, Mu Yun nodded in agreement.

Ever since Chi Duoduo was allowed to have lunch with him, her first lesson ended with a perfect score.

Like Mu Yun, they came here to begin the next stage of training.

However, due to her lack of proficiency in the moves, her Pokémon couldn't even perform the simplest two moves simultaneously.

Therefore, Zou Mingli could only have her follow the course step by step, which was to train her to master the moves.

In fact, this is the normal learning pace; skipping grades like Mu Yun is an extremely rare occurrence.

To increase proficiency in techniques, actual combat is undoubtedly a very good way.

And that's how Teacher Dugu came online!

With thousands of battles under his belt, as well as his exceptional skill and overwhelming level, Xiao Du can easily guide the training of the Bear.

Of course, coaching matches are only held occasionally.

In most cases, they still practice separately.

After all, progress is faster in actual combat because it allows you to integrate what you've learned in real combat. Without a foundation, no amount of fighting is meaningful.

"That's enough, come and rest for a bit."

Looking at the bear in the tunic, panting heavily and whose movements were becoming distorted, Mu Yun spoke up.

"Hiss!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Du raised his hand and waved it. The bee stinger arrived first and stopped the bear's arm in mid-air. Then, another stinger was thrown out and hit the bear's forehead.

With a thud.

The bear-themed garment was crouching on the ground, covering its head and making whimpering sounds.

Teacher Dugu's needles are so hard!

It really hurts when someone hits you!

After training, it was lunchtime.

Mu Yun, as before, went to the cafeteria to cook, and ate his meal happily amidst the tearful expressions of the students.

Afterwards, he and Chi Duoduo returned to the training area.

"Shhh~~~"

As soon as they arrived at the training ground, they heard the sound of leaves rubbing against each other in the surrounding bushes.

A moment later, a creature with an iron-gray back and dark purple chest and legs peeked out from the bushes.

It is the insect-water dual-type Pokémon - Timid Bug.

"Brother Yun, look! That coward is here again!"

Chi Duoduo seemed quite familiar with the appearance of the timid worm; in fact, she was somewhat pleasantly surprised.

"This little guy actually came again, and he's quite brave!" Mu Yun exclaimed.

In fact, this wasn't the first time they had seen a coward.

About four days ago, this cowardly creature appeared here.

After appearing, he stubbornly challenged Xiao Du, only to be knocked unconscious by Xiao Du with a single needle.

I thought that this timid spirit, after its erratic behavior and setback, would stay away from me.

As a result, he came again the next afternoon.

This time, he provoked Bingbing, who was practicing her moves.

As you can imagine, it froze into ice.

I thought he wouldn't come back on the third day, but to my surprise, he came again.

This time, however, he's challenging Shin-chan.

The result, naturally, was a crushing defeat.

Then, on the fourth day, he came again.

However, he changed his opponent again, this time challenging Xiao Tie.

Compared to the previous three times he managed to snag the item in seconds, this time he lasted much longer.

It wasn't that his strength had increased; it was simply that Xiao Tie habitually used defensive moves first before launching an attack.

Today marks the fifth day since he met the coward.

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

[Elf: Coward]

Gender: Male

[Attribute: Insect + Water]

[Level: 19 (Normal)]

【Characteristic: Eager to flee (As stamina decreases, fighting spirit gradually diminishes; once fear arises, there is a possibility of fleeing)】

[Moves: Rollout, Metal Claw, Water Jet, Sand Throw, Round Up, Insect Resistance]

【Items to bring: None】

[Potential: Dominant Level]

[Racial stats: 230]

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

With a peak level of the common tier, the potential of the overlord tier, and having inherited three moves, this cowardly creature's stats are quite good overall.

If it weren't for his lackluster performance, Mu Yun would have really wanted to train one.

After all, the evolved armored warrior wearing full silver armor is still quite cool.

Unfortunately, his characteristics make him unsuitable to be a battle-type spirit.

They can manage to bully lower-level Pokémon, but once they face Pokémon of the same or even higher level, they are likely to be easily defeated.

Especially when facing a threatening or intimidating opponent, they might surrender without a fight.

Just as Mu Yun was pondering, the cowardly insect darted out from the bushes and swam quickly to Xiao Du.

His words completely stunned Mu Yun.
