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

"Hiss!!"

As if sensing Mu Yun's anger in the waveguide communication channel for the first time, Xiao Du's crimson eyes suddenly flashed with a cold light.

"Beedrill? Pshaw, that's all?"

Xu Jianli felt he had made a mountain out of a molehill.

If he had known the enemy would use cannon fodder first, he wouldn't have let Dragon Head Groundhog lead the charge.

Isn't this a complete waste of energy?

Just as Xu Jianli was feeling disdainful, the referee's voice rang out again: "Both Pokémon are in position, the match begins!"

He didn't even say the challenger would go first.

They've really stopped acting altogether!

However, Mu Yun didn't care. The fact that the other party didn't record gave him the opportunity.

"Dragon Head Mole, take him down!"

With no cameras pointed at him, Xu Jianli didn't bother pretending with Mu Yun and looked at Mu Yun with a mocking gaze.

Even if it's a Beedrill, he must have raised it for a long time. If it suddenly becomes crippled or dies, he'll be heartbroken for a long time!

Ha ha ha ha!!

Thinking of this, his dissatisfaction with the iron dumbbell being "taken away" dissipated somewhat.

"Mouse!!"

Just then, a cry of pain suddenly rang out.

He looked closely and saw a giant bee that had somehow flown from the other side of the field to where the dragon head gopher had originally been.

As for the dragon-headed ground squirrel?

Xu Jianli looked around, and suddenly his pupils contracted.

At the edge of the arena, a creature covered in dark purple venom lay on the ground, barely clinging to life.

Then it went silent.

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

[Ding! Beedrill (59) defeated Excadrill (69). Permanent Quest 1: Battle Completed. The opponent's level is significantly higher than yours. Congratulations, host! You have gained 69 points. Beedrill's growth level has received a moderate boost!]

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

[Ding! Target detected as the objective of Permanent Mission 16 - Badge Collector. Bonus points: 690!]

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

[Ding! Beedrill's growth level has increased after continuous efforts. Current level: 60!]

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

"!!!"

What just happened?

Where is my big dragon-headed gopher?

What is that unidentified creature lying there?

Xu Jianli's mind went blank for a moment, and it took him a while to recover. He looked at the lifeless dragon-headed ground squirrel and let out a mournful howl:

"My damn dragon-headed gopher!!! You bastard!!!"

"I'm so sorry, Master Xu. Swords have no eyes. My little Du couldn't control his poison. Please accept my condolences."

Mu Yun crossed his arms, and although he used words of condolence, his tone showed no sign of mourning for him.

"You bastard!! I'll make you pay with your life!!"

Xu Jianli seemed to have lost his mind in anger; his eyes were now bloodshot, almost as red as Xiao Du's.

"Gym Leader, calm down! This is a gym, a gym challenge!!"

Seeing that their own guild master seemed to have lost his mind, the referee quickly spoke up to dissuade him.

He's just an employee. He's good at covering things up for the gym owner and teaching challengers a lesson, but if someone actually dies, he'll definitely be in jail.

It's not a big deal if he goes in, but what about his beautiful wife at home?

What will happen to his lovely five-year-old daughter, whom he has only been married to for three years?

"I'm so calm and collected! In Jiakou City, the Xu family is the law!!"

Xu Jianli seemed to have truly lost his mind, completely ignoring the referee's advice, and swinging his hands around his waist.

Awesome!!

Before long, all the Poké Balls on his waist were released.

The elves who came out with them looked around, seemingly a little confused.

Only the lead general with the servant's sword looked solemn when he saw the corpse in the corner with only three steel blades left.

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

[Elf: Servant General]

Gender: Male

[Attribute: Dark + Steel]

[Level: 72 (Heavenly King Level)]

【Trait: Unyielding (When stats are reduced, the user's physical attack power increases significantly)】

[Potential: King-level]

[Racial stats: 550]

Special Bonus: 1. Descendant of the Heavenly Prince: Energy quality increased by 5%, meaning the power of all moves increased by 5%.

2. Heavenly King Specialty (Normal): Increases the user's total physical strength and energy by 3 times, energy quality by 50%, and increases attack, defense, speed, and other five stats by 50%...

[Special Power: Awakened Power - Dark (Mastered): Increases the quality of Dark-type energy by 100%, meaning all Dark-type moves have their power increased by 100%.]

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

"King-level...?"

Mu Yun scanned the area and found that apart from this Servant General who had reached the Heavenly King level, the rest were only at the mid-to-late stage of the Dojo level.

He glanced at the referee, who was sweating profusely and didn't know what to do, and then at Xu Jianli, whose eyes were bloodshot and who seemed to have lost his mind.

"Why bother... Xiao Du, just like before, leave no one alive!"

If it were a different Pokémon, with only the initial level of entering the Gym, it would have no chance against the exaggerated stats of a Champion-level Pokémon.

But Xiao Du is different.

The blessing of divine baptism brings a 90% damage reduction, so even a King-level spirit cannot cause much damage.

As for whether Xiao Du can harm a Champion-level Pokémon?

With 200% toxicity, 700% poison power bonus, and 750% critical hit damage, when stacked together, even a top-tier Dojo-level Excadrill will melt upon contact.

Even a Champion-level Pokémon cannot be completely immune!

"Hiss!!"

Upon receiving Mu Yun's order, Xiao Du immediately set out.

"You've got guts! You actually dared to take the initiative and attack!"

Xu Jianli, enraged, laughed coldly. Seeing that Mu Yun dared to fight back, he immediately roared, "Attack! Target... that giant Beedrill!!"

He still had some sense after all.

Defeating the sprites offers a lot of room for maneuver, especially without recording.

In addition, this is Jiakou City, and while we may not have complete control over all departments, passing on a few words is not a problem.

As long as the people are safe, whether the elves live or die is a minor matter.

"Wow!!"

General Pudao reacted the fastest, mobilizing his energy to counter Xiao Du almost before Xu Jianli could speak.

Dark energy emerged from the massive blade above his head.

Dark-type move - Dark Strike!

Clang!

The clanging of metal against metal reverberated between the overlapping of bee stings and blades.

Even though Xiao Du's speed far exceeds that of others of the same level, it is only slightly faster than that of the Servant General, who is blessed with the Heavenly King's special ability (flat), and it is not a significant advantage.

However, when Xu Jianli saw this scene, he immediately forgot his anger and his heart skipped a beat.

Because, facing the attack of its own low-level Heavenly King-level Servant General, that giant Beedrill didn't retreat at all!

What does this mean?

This means that the opponent's Beedrill is also an Elite Four level Pokémon!

As for the fact that the opponent is not a Champion-level Pokémon, yet has the strength to fight against a Champion-level Pokémon.

He didn't even dare to think about it!

If that's the case, then he's doomed!

Having angered the family with such a monster, the old man could have Metagross tear him apart alive!

Grass! !

Great!

I should have known better than to listen to my nephew's instigation and taught him a lesson.

It would be so much better to just be a dojo owner honestly. Even if you don't earn much, you'd still be a respectable person.

Now look what's happened, we've completely offended them!

"Damn it, what the hell do we do?!"

Xu Jianli tugged at the few remaining hairs on his head in frustration, feeling angry and regretful, completely at a loss for what to do.

Fortunately, his troubles soon disappeared.

Because the battle in the arena was nearing its end.

(As mentioned before, in the setting of this article, not all Steel-type Pokémon are immune to toxins. Only those Pokémon with a pure steel structure can greatly reduce the corrosive effects of ordinary toxins. As for Pokémon like Excadrill and Pokémon with normal flesh but with parts of their bodies made of steel, their bodies alone cannot slow down the damage much.)
