"What a busy life~~"

Heihe City, Heijiang University Campus.

Inside Villa No. 101 in Liangjilong Villa District.

Mu Yun looked at Chi Duoduo, who was fast asleep after exhausting herself, and sighed to himself.

A week has passed since the Black Dragon Cup ended.

During this period, his life was quite fulfilling.

I train the sprites during the day and Dodo at night.

I get very little time to sleep.

Fortunately, he was physically strong and was unharmed.

"The Silver Tournament is still a while away, what should I do in the meantime...?"

The Silver Tournament, also known as the Regional Young Trainers Tournament, is usually held in mid-January, after the Lunar New Year.

It's only mid-November now, so there are still nearly two months to go.

He had already prepared all the badges needed for registration.

The national open-style fighting competition, which aims to achieve the pinnacle of human physical prowess, will not be held until next year.

Therefore, during this period he had almost nothing to do except train.

"How about we explore some hidden realm?"

Besides the safe and fully explored secret realms he had visited before, there are many unexplored or incompletely explored unknown secret realms.

Because it is unknown, the level of danger is also uncertain.

Even Elite 1 trainers can sometimes stumble.

However, none of this matters to Mu Yun. He has an elven space and can set up spatial anchor points, making him extremely safe.

"Xiao Wu, check the information about the unknown secret realm."

Mu Yun took Xiao Wu out of the elf space.

As an electronic ghost, Xiao Wu possesses exceptionally strong information gathering capabilities.

It's no exaggeration to say that in terms of pure network information technology, Xiaowu is stronger than Patrick Star.

It's not that Patrick Star isn't good enough, it's just that Little Wu has too many innate advantages.

Once he enters the plasma state and merges into the network, unless there is an absolute crushing defeat on both the technical and physical levels, Xiao Wu will be virtually invincible.

"Loto~~"

While Xiao Wu in mobile phone mode isn't at its strongest, it's more than enough for browsing the internet and searching for information.

Streams of data flowed across the phone screen.

Soon, all sorts of information about the secret realms appeared on the phone screen.

"Southern Region, New Grassland, discovered in November 2023, exploration progress 80%, danger level: B+."

"Southwest region, vast and mysterious realm, discovered in September 2022, exploration progress 55%, danger level: A."

"Northwest region..."

Exploration level refers to the percentage of the hidden realm that has been explored and mapped.

The appearance of an exploration progress mark means that this secret realm has been roughly explored, but the more detailed surface and the drawing of the map have not yet been officially completed.

You'll hardly find anything good in these kinds of secret realms.

As for the level of danger, it depends on the highest level of the wild elves in the secret realm and their numbers.

For example, a new Grass-type Secret Realm with a danger level of B+ means that the highest level of wild Pokémon in the Secret Realm is the Overlord level, and there are a lot of them.

If there are only three or fewer individuals and the population size is small, it will be marked as B-.

If there are more than ten, or multiple groups possess dominant-level Pokémon, it will be marked as B+.

Those within this range will be marked as Level B hazard.

Similarly, the vast and mysterious realm with an A-level danger level is inhabited by several wild groups of Pokémon with Gym-level Pokémon.

Exploring this level of secret realm is extremely difficult, not because the League can't find enough Gym Leaders.

Rather, it's because drawing maps requires a large number of people, and trainers with Gym-level Pokémon are ultimately a minority.

This explains why some discoveries occur earlier, but with lower levels of exploration.

"They're all just ordinary, common secret realms."

Mu Yun quickly scanned the information about the various secret realms.

Most of them are very common, ordinary secret realms, meaning they are not much different from the outside environment. They are just that the natural ecology has been well preserved because they were previously closed off.

However, this is normal. Encountering a master-level Azure Flame Blade Demon in a secret realm is, after all, a very rare occurrence.

"How about we go challenge some gyms and level up?"

"Loto~~"

As Mu Yun was thinking, Xiao Wu, who had merged with the phone, suddenly vibrated.

A new message appeared on the phone screen.

"Eastern region, unknown secret realm, discovered in November 2025, exploration progress 0%, danger level: S (tentative)."

--------------------

I'm having some writer's block. My mind is blank as I sit in front of the computer, and my eyes hurt (my left eye feels tight and heavy, and it's a little uncomfortable when I move my eyeballs).

I've been writing this since last August, and I feel like my brain is running out of steam.

I write and delete, just to maintain perfect attendance.

It's starting to feel a bit too much; barring any unforeseen circumstances, it should end next month.

!! Orz

But the thought that I probably won't be writing about elves anymore makes me a little reluctant.

I'm really torn.

It means wanting both.

I'm planning to go out in the sun this afternoon; maybe being in the sunlight will make me feel better.
