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

"A Milotic at the late-stage professional level? I've never seen this level of strength in the training camp before?"

Mu Yun glanced at Milos's panel, then at Yu Xin's youthful and innocent face, and felt rather puzzled.

With this level of ability, competing for the top spot might be a bit challenging, but getting a guaranteed admission to Heijiang University is no problem at all.

At the same time, Yu Xin was also carefully observing Mu Yun's gem starfish.

As a direct descendant of the Water-type Pokémon family, she has a thorough understanding of the data of all kinds of Water-type Pokémon.

For example, the size of the gem starfish itself and the size ratio of the starfish on its back, the color and brightness of the gem on its chest, etc.

Because she understood, Yu Xin immediately stopped smiling and became alert upon seeing Mu Yun, the gem starfish.

A typical gem starfish is about 1.1 meters long, but this one in front of us looks to be more than 1.3 meters long.

Furthermore, the starfish on its back is enormous, almost a third larger than the main body, resembling a perfect protective shell.

What surprised her even more was the ruby ​​on the starfish's chest.

Its color is bright and clear, without any impurities, making it almost the highest quality.

In terms of color alone, it's even more beautiful than my great-grandmother's gem starfish.

Is this really a newly bred elf after the college entrance examination?

Yu Xin was somewhat skeptical of her own stupid older brother's information.

"Both Pokémon are in position, let the match begin!"

The referee ignored the two's thoughts and immediately announced the decision after the two elves were in position.

"Milotic, use Water Circulation first!"

Water Ring, a water-based transformation move, can create a healing water flow around the body, quickly restoring injuries and stamina.

Milotic is already a powerful Special Defense user, and when paired with recovery moves like Water Ring, it becomes a true tank with high defense and high recovery.

And coincidentally, Starmie is a Special Attacker, making it a perfect counter!

However, what puzzled Yu Xin was that after the referee announced the start of the match, Mu Yun just watched quietly like a spectator outside the arena, without saying a word.

The unexpected change occurred when Milotic mobilized its internal energy and a thin, faintly green stream of water appeared.

The starfish standing in front of Mu Yun had a flash of light on its crimson gemstone.

If Yu Xin hadn't been observing closely, she wouldn't have even noticed.

However, just as the light flashed, the water surrounding Milotic, like a tremor after a battle, quivered slightly before falling uncontrollably to the ground, leaving a large water stain on the field.

"No rose??"

Milotic tilted her head, her beautiful eyes filled with confusion.

What just happened? Why did the energy suddenly become uncontrollable?

Yu Xin was equally bewildered.

Water Ring is one of Milotic's most proficient moves, so there's no way it could fail to be used.

So, what did that gem starfish do?

But what did the other party do?

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

"What's going on? Why did Milotic suddenly stop its attack?"

"I don't know, maybe she's just tired and exhausted?"

"Who knows? But Milotic is really beautiful. I heard her skin is smooth and delicate. I really want to go over and touch it!"

"Damn, are you a psychopath? You're even going after non-humanoid elves?"

"Could you please put down that water sprite pillow you're holding before you talk to me? OK?"

"........."

In the audience, the unsuspecting viewers started discussing Milotic after its attack failed.

Because it was a rookie tournament, everyone was very forgiving of both sides.

It's normal for a newbie to be unfamiliar with the moves.

"Something's not right, this gem starfish is really strange!" Yu Bo frowned and muttered to himself.

He knew better than anyone the strength of his younger sister's Milotic.

Although he can't beat his red Gyarados, he will never make the basic mistake of failing to use a move.

But the gem starfish doesn't seem to have done anything either...

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

In the battlefield.

"Milotic, use Aqua Ring again!"

After the initial surprise, Yu Xin quickly composed herself and called out again.

"Ugh~~"

Milotic nodded slightly and began to mobilize the energy within his body once again.

Then......

Nothing happened.

If the energy within her body was originally like a lapdog in a fishpond, always at her beck and call, then the energy now is like a scumbag who sometimes gets close and sometimes stays away, always slipping away from her control.

As a result, the once extremely skilled water circulation technique can no longer condense even a single drop of water.

"??"

Seeing Milos wriggling its body but unable to squeeze out a single drop of water, Yu Xin was stunned.

What happened? My Milotic is so dry today?

Meanwhile, Mu Yun used the power of waveguides to establish a communication channel with Patrick Star.

Mu Yun: "How is the situation?"

Patrick: "It went very smoothly. We have cut off 99% of the opponent's energy pathways. Without continuous interference, it is expected to recover 20% in 10 minutes, 50% in 20 minutes, and return to normal in 30 minutes."

That's right, the battle may have looked like nothing happened, but in reality, the outcome was already decided in secret.

Almost the instant the referee's voice fell, Patrick Star, without needing any instructions, quietly emitted mind-control signals.

Intercept the opponent's intention to manipulate energy and simulate the illusion that the energy is difficult to control.

As it turned out, perhaps due to a difference in intelligence, the process was much easier than Patrick had imagined.

If he wanted, he could even reverse the flow of energy, causing the energy within Milotic's body to surge violently, thus directly inflicting severe internal injuries.

I just don't know if this kind of injury will trigger the protection mechanism.

After all, there has never been a case of an elf being injured due to internal turmoil.

Mu Yun naturally did not allow Patrick Star's dangerous idea.

Experiments can be conducted, but there's no need to use your competitors as guinea pigs.

Patrick Star expressed his regret, but still faithfully obeyed his boss's orders.

Buzz!

A blinding red light shone from the gem on Patrick Star's chest.

In an instant, a tremendous superpower burst forth from his body.

Strong mental focus!

With a base Special Attack stat of 180 and various buffs, Milotic, unable to use any moves, is like a wooden puppet, utterly powerless to resist.

In just a moment, under Yu Xin's dazed gaze, Milos went limp, its eyes turning into mosquito coils as it collapsed to the ground.

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

[Ding! Starmie (38) defeated Milotic (36). Permanent Quest 1: Battle Completed. The opponent's level is equal to yours. Congratulations, host! You have gained 36 points. Starmie's growth level has been slightly increased!]

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

[Ding! Target detected for Long-Term Task 3 - The Baby Cup objective. You have received an extra 36 points and a small additional level boost!]

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

[Ding! Through continuous efforts, the Gem Starfish has increased its growth level. Current level: 39!]

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

With double experience, Patrick Star successfully reached the peak of the Professional level, and was only one step away from the Elite level.

"Mildac is unable to fight; Starmie is the victor!"

The referee gave Milotic, who was now unable to fight, a strange look before announcing the decision.

Kids these days are so impatient for quick success. They only care about evolving their Pokémon early and don't know how to let their Pokémon practice their moves. They can't even use a simple Water Ring properly. Sigh!

What a waste of such a beautiful elf.

Yu Xin: ? ? ? Is it my fault?
