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

In the spacious and bright classroom, a few first-year students majoring in trainers sat scattered around.

Although trainer training is a very popular major worldwide, the number of openings does not increase simply because more people apply.

In fact, the number of students admitted to each major at universities at the top ten level is basically fixed every year.

For example, the Trainer program at Heijiang University only admits 50 students each year.

In other words, the entire Trainer Academy has only about 200 people.

Even though they all came to this classroom together, it wasn't even half full.

Good morning, everyone.

On the podium stood a middle-aged man wearing frameless glasses.

Lu Chengwang is the class teacher of the 26th class of trainers and also their counselor.

You can consult him about any issues within the school.

After briefly introducing himself, Lu Chengwang brought the process to the most awkward part: the self-introduction.

It's worth mentioning that, in addition to Mu Yun and the other freshmen, there were also ten students sitting in the first row who needed to introduce themselves.

Mu Yun recognized one of them.

It was Qu Qi, who had challenged him not long ago.

It's obvious that these are all second-year students.

"Good morning, fellow students. My name is Qu Qi. I am a sophomore majoring in Trainer and a reserve member of our school team." After the self-introduction session began, Qu Qi, with his spiky hair, took the lead and came to the podium.

"If any of you junior students have any questions about your studies or daily life, or if you want to learn more about our school team in advance, feel free to come to me!"

After Qu Qi went down, the other nine people also went up on stage.

It's worth mentioning that, in addition to students majoring in Trainer, there are also students from the Academy of Breeders and the Academy of Medical Sciences.

Clearly, this is the school facilitating connections and introductions between students.

The beginning is always the hardest. Once we had a chance to get to know each other, we had opportunities to communicate afterwards.

Whether you can seize the opportunity depends on your own efforts.

After a brief self-introduction, Qu Qi and his group left in triumph.

Next, Lu Chengwang explained the school rules, motto, and other important points.

"...Finally, and most importantly, starting tomorrow, all freshmen at our school will begin a two-week military training program. During this period, they will be away from the campus and the city, and will undergo closed training in the military region to the north, near Bai'an Mountain."

Military training is arguably a very important part of starting university life.

However, compared to ordinary universities, Heijiang University's military training is significantly more rigorous.

The military training location is not only a real military region, but also a military region near the border where there is a chance to witness real conflicts.

Of course, not every major has such strict requirements.

Students who are not Pokémon majors only need to go to regular military camps. Only Pokémon trainer majors are required to go to military camps near the border.

Of course, although it is a military region near the border, there is actually not much danger.

Firstly, they are just students, so they wouldn't be the ones facing any danger.

Secondly, the western region of the Ice Luo Alliance has been quite turbulent in recent years, with most of the chaos concentrated there, while the area near the Yanhuang Alliance has been relatively peaceful.

"Military training? It doesn't seem to be of much use to me."

Previously, Mu Yun had asked Patrick to check the general situation of the military training in previous years.

It's basically the same three things.

Queue training, physical training, and the final assessment.

The first is discipline, the second is ability, and the last is a test of comprehensive abilities.

It's basically the same as the previous college entrance exam training camps.

"How about I take a day off?"

Mu Yun considered the feasibility of the matter.

Half a month is enough time for him to go to the Black Snake Gang and fight two rounds...

Before Mu Yun could think for long, a system notification suddenly sounded.

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

[Ding! A short-term task has been detected that the host has triggered. The task has been loaded. Please check it yourself!]

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

[Short-term Task 15: Military Training: Military training is the first lesson of university and the best stage to showcase one's spirit. Please give your best performance on this grand stage!]

[Task requirements: To be determined based on the final results after military training.]

[Time Limit: Before the end of military training]

【Task Rewards: During military training, defeating elves will grant you an extra 10 points based on your level, and the rewards for [Permanent Task 1 - Battle] will be doubled.】

After the military training, those who are among the top ten most eye-catching will receive a reward of 10000 points and a storage space expansion card (3m³).

After the military training, the top three who attract the most attention will receive a reward of 20000 points and a storage space expansion card (5m³).

After the military training, the first person to stand out will receive 30000 reward points, a storage space expansion card (10m³), and a secret treasure 1-fold card.

After military training, surpass the most eye-catching person to receive reward points*100000, storage space expansion card (20m³), treasure discount card*1, and one second chance to enhance any Pokémon's trait (must have maximum intimacy and have undergone one trait enhancement; currently eligible Pokémon are:.........)

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

"A second chance to enhance the characteristic?"

The moment Mu Yun saw the reward, he suddenly felt that participating in military training might not be so bad after all.

However, his understanding of becoming the most eye-catching first person was simply to be number one.

But what the heck is this "surpassing the number one" thing?

Mu Yun fell into deep thought.

Could it be that he's playing dumb to fool others, then suddenly makes a name for himself and defeats the number one?

But he's already very famous.

After all, he was admitted as the top student in the training camp and also holds the title of national champion.

Among the crowd, it would be hard to find anyone more eye-catching than him.

"Forget it, things will work themselves out. Let's see what happens when we get to the military region."

Unable to come up with a solution, Mu Yun decided to put it out of his mind for the time being.

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

The next day.

Mu Yun led Chi Duoduo out of the villa.

To be honest, the school villas are really nice; they're big and spacious, and you don't have to worry about disturbing the neighbors.

"Good morning, Muyun, Duoduo!"

On the way, the two encountered Lü Jiayi, who was carrying a large orange backpack.

Although you are not allowed to bring too many things during military training, you are still allowed to bring your own basic personal clothing and toiletries.

As for outerwear?

That means it will be distributed uniformly.

Just like yesterday, the trainers first gathered in front of the teaching building, then boarded the school's shuttle bus, and finally embarked on a long journey.

"Is it that far?"

On the way, Lü Jiayi looked out the window at the environment where there was no trace of the city anymore and exclaimed softly.

This is much farther than the distance from Heijiang City to the Shuilin Secret Realm.

Mu Yun didn't seem to have any particular feeling about this.

The Black Snake Gang's hideout was much farther away than this.

After all, for safety reasons, the manor they built was very close to the border.

They are self-sufficient in water and electricity for daily life, and there is even a small vegetable garden on the back hill.

It's a bit out of the way, but the environment is really nice.

Soon, as dusk approached, and after switching to military off-road vehicles along the way, the group finally saw the location where they would be conducting military training.

The 13th Military Region of Bai'anshan!
