The wrong transmigrator assigned by the system

Therefore, Lu Ming had no choice but to take out a greatsword from his phone and use it to block Sulyvahn's attack.

"It's over! Lu Ming!!" Shaliwan roared, and then the heavy greatsword of sin slammed into the greatsword in Lu Ming's hand, the force of which almost knocked Lu Ming to the ground.

But he was also in a bad situation. Because of Sulyvahn's attack, the wounds on Lu Ming's body that had been healed by the Elemental Bottle had reopened and started bleeding profusely. Moreover, while resisting Sulyvahn's Greatsword of Sin, which Sulyvahn had not yet removed, Lu Ming could hear the mournful cries of his own bones.

"This time, please die!!" Seeing that the Greatsword of Sin had not yet killed Lu Ming, Saliwan immediately raised the Greatsword of Retribution, preparing to give Lu Ming the final blow.

However, just as the greatsword of punishment was about to fall, a deep blue sword aura suddenly shot out from behind Sulyvahn, striking him squarely in the back!

"Ah~!!" Saliwan cried out in pain as he was torn apart by the sword energy slash, but he quickly recovered and immediately gave up attacking Lu Ming. Instead, he turned around and shattered the sword energy slash with his sword.

Seeing that Sham and his three companions had already killed the phantom clones, Sallyvan's eyes were filled with rage.

Although Sham and his companions killed the phantom clone, their strength was still insufficient to contend with it. Therefore, it is easy to imagine how angry the proud and arrogant Sallyvan was at being injured by these four people.

Just as it was about to go and talk to Sham and the others first, Lu Ming's voice suddenly rang out behind it...

"Sullivan, have you forgotten something?"

"Pfft!!" Saliwan spat out a mouthful of blood, looked down at the dark blue soul sword that had pierced his back and emerged from his chest, and struggled to survive.

Unfortunately, Lu Ming had no intention of giving him that chance.

The sharp Farron swift sword suddenly slashed across Sulyvahn's chest to the left, cleaving his left side in two, cutting his heart in half, and severing the arm holding the Greatsword of Retribution.

"Why... I clearly saw it..." With a mournful cry, Sulyvahn collapsed heavily. Its body turned into soul bubbles and was absorbed by Miraljag, leaving behind the two greatswords.

"We won." After completely defeating Sulyvahn, Lu Ming collapsed to the ground. His wounds only began to heal slowly after Jack gave him a major recovery.

After a short rest, Lu Ming collected all the spoils into his inventory. Then, he led the others to the nearby campfire and teleported back to Puru.

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

Waking up in his study, Lu Ming glanced wearily at his phone's inventory. It contained a whole bunch of items: the Greatsword of Retribution, the Greatsword of Sin, eight Pope Knight Curved Swords, three complete sets of Pope Knight Armor, the Silver Knight Straight Sword, the Silver Knight Armor, the Greatsword of Irithyll's Slave, and more. But what slightly annoyed Lu Ming was that, despite being the final boss, and the one who had almost killed him, the High Priestess Sulyvahn hadn't dropped a single skill book, only two weapons. The only thing that had dropped was a green, transparent gem with a leaf inside.

"Leaf Stone: A legendary gem that can evolve Grass-type Pokémon."

"What's wrong?" Sham, who had just woken up, saw Lu Ming looking at his phone with a slight frown and asked with some concern.

"It's nothing. I just got a stone that I don't know how to explain." Lu Ming, who was a little listless because he had lost a lot of blood, gently rubbed his sore forehead and said.

"What stone? Is it related to magic?" Miral suddenly asked from not far away.

"Probably not."

"If you have a headache, go take a nap." Noticing that Lu Ming was rubbing his forehead, Lily immediately stood up from the sofa and walked over to him.

Lu Ming tried to stand up, but because he had no strength, he almost fell. Fortunately, Lily and Sham caught him and prevented him from falling.

He was unsteady on his feet and said helplessly, "I think I've lost too much blood."

With Lu Ming in this state, Lily and Sham had no choice but to help him back to his room to rest, lest something happen to him.

Seeing this, Jack told Miral to follow as well, lest Sham and Lily think Miral was being inconsiderate. Clearly, he had also misunderstood the relationship between Lu Ming and Miral.

She hurriedly caught up with Sham and Lily, and helped Lu Ming lie down on the bed. Miral stood there helplessly, completely unsure of what to do.

Seeing this, Lu Ming smiled helplessly and closed his eyes.

Although it was a misunderstanding, it might not be a bad thing. At least, he didn't think Sham and Lily had no ulterior motives. These two women, who would talk for ages about any other girl they saw, would they suddenly force a girl on him? There must be something he didn't know, but he was already exhausted and didn't want to think about it anymore...

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

When Lu Ming woke up again, it was already close to dusk.

Slowly sitting up from the bed, Lu Ming rubbed his forehead, which was much better, and looked at the empty room.

Lu Ming picked up his phone, which was lying to the side, and glanced at the time.

"5:40. Can a little over two hours of sleep really help a body recover from excessive blood loss?" Muttering to himself in confusion, Lu Ming put on his shoes and left the room.

They found Sham and the others in the living room, discussing what to do about the final round of group matches that evening.

Lu Ming is a baron, a minor lord, while this competition is hosted by an earl. Not participating or abstaining is a demonstration against the earl, and who knows what kind of trouble he will face later!

"I feel a bit better. As long as I don't fight those people, I should be able to manage with the help of Stinky Flowers and the others." Not wanting Lily and the others to worry, Lu Ming pushed open the door and said to everyone.

Seeing that Lu Ming had woken up, everyone helped him to the sofa and discussed with him whether Sham or Lily could take his place, since his body had not fully recovered and it might cause an accident if he played.

"Substitutes and substitutes are not allowed in the competition. Besides, aren't you underestimating me?" Lu Ming couldn't help but laugh as he listened to Sham and the others' heated argument. "You're also underestimating Stinky Flower and the others."

"What do you mean?" Sham looked at Lu Ming with some confusion and asked.

"Just wait and see."

"Could it be that Gloom and the others are about to evolve again?" Princess Ella suddenly remembered something and asked in surprise.

"Evolution? What's that?" Miral tilted her head, looking at Lu Ming with great confusion.

"Evolution is the name for the long process by which one species becomes another. For example, the ancestors of cats evolved into the various lions, tigers, and leopards we know today, as well as the cats we keep as pets." Lu Ming gave a simple example, briefly explaining the meaning of the word "evolution."

Judging from the disbelieving looks in everyone's eyes, Darwin might be so angry he'd die if he came here.

However, Lu Ming did not intend to reveal everything.

Jack frowned slightly and asked Lu Ming, "Since you said it's a 'long process,' how can you make the Stinky Flowers complete their evolution now?"

At this moment, Princess Ella spoke up to explain this 'evolution' to Lu Ming: "In the capital, there is a kind of bird-like magical beast called **. When it grows to a certain level, it will evolve into a medium-sized bird-like magical beast called Pidgeotto. And Pidgeotto will eventually evolve into a large raptor called Pidgeot. The evolution process only takes a few seconds."

As she spoke, Ella pointed to a vase not far away, about the size of a washbasin, and gestured, "I once saw my sister's Pidgey evolve from the size of that vase to the size of a person in just a few seconds!"

"Really?" Sham and Miral asked, somewhat incredulously.

"Once we get to the capital, you'll know whether what I said is true or not."

At this moment, Lu Ming's Stinky Flower, Lu'er, and Soroya, attracted by the sound of everyone talking, all entered the living room.

Seeing this, Kanina, who was a little curious, immediately wanted Lu Ming to demonstrate the evolution of Pokémon.

However, Lu Ming ignored her and, after having Miral and the others draw the curtains, said to Gloom, "Gloom, although you only recently evolved, I'm sick for this competition, so I want to use a Leaf Stone to evolve you into Vileplume to make up for my lost power. If you don't want to, that's fine too. Now tell me if you're willing or not."

ChouChouHua glanced at Lu Ming's noticeably pale face and nodded vigorously. An astonishing fighting spirit ignited within her!

Seeing this, Lu Ming smiled happily, because Gloom was willing to evolve for him. Thus, he entrusted the Leaf Stone to Gloom... (To be continued.)

Chapter Thirty-Six - The Rondo of the Queen of the Night and the Beautiful Flower

"Good evening, everyone! Welcome to the Southern Martial Arts Arena to watch the final round of the group stage! Today we will determine the winner of the winners' bracket and the losers' bracket. The final winner will be one of the four contestants in the semi-finals, which will be held outside the Lord's Mansion in four days!"

"In our Southern Tournament Arena, we have the incredibly powerful Sword-Biting Wolf Baron Lu Ming and the Golden Lion Cub Baron McGrath Rasfar from the Imperial Capital! They are the strongest and hottest contestants in the winners' and losers' brackets, respectively. I even saw betting odds outside the arena about who would win between these two barons!"

"However, the other contestants shouldn't be discouraged. Baron Lu Ming of the Sword-Biting Wolf is sick today, so he can only rely on commanding his magical beasts to fight. And Baron McGrath Rasfar's griffin hasn't recovered from yesterday's match yet, so his magical beast right now is a beautiful flower from the lord's manor!"

"The sword of the wolf-biting beast is rusty, and the claws of the golden lion cub have lost their sharpness. Will the other newcomers be able to defeat these two powerful figures? Let's wait and see!"

Sitting in the audience, Mirall, who was watching the game with Jack, said somewhat unhappily, "Who is this host? Why is he so annoying?"

Mirall, who is highly likely to become Lu Ming's third fiancée, felt very uncomfortable when she heard the host say bad things about Lu Ming.

The fire fox Lulu and Zoroya, sitting in her lap, also called out in support.

Lily, standing to the side, gave a wry smile and shook her head slightly. The host of the Southern Martial Arts Arena was indeed a bit reckless.

However, Lily and Sham, who was standing next to her, both felt that this person might not even need them to lift a finger; he would be taught a lesson by the baron from the capital.

Soon, after a few unremarkable matches, Lu Ming, the "Biting Sword Wolf," who was a hot favorite at the Southern Martial Arts Arena, had his first match of the day.

When he stood on the arena, almost everyone's attention was drawn to the plant-type magical beast beside him. A huge black flower with white spots and a deep blue body—it was clearly a grown-up Gloom. But how could Gloom grow so big in just one day?

Lu Ming's opponent, looking at the spirited Queen of the Night and then at his own Chrysanthemum Leaf, felt completely suppressed.

Although he already knew he would lose, he still fought for the sake of the rest of his family. His goal was to force the Queen of the Flower to use her skills as much as possible, so that the others would know and come up with countermeasures.

"Our Sword-Biting Wolf, Baron Lu Ming, and his monster, the Tyrant Flower, are now positioned on the blue team! Opposite him, on the red team, is the Beetle, Baron Lucius Metel, and his plant-type monster, Chikorita! Both are barons, and both are using plant-type monsters. Now let's see who's stronger! The match begins!!"

After exchanging greetings, Baron Mettle and Chickweed launched the first attack.

"Chikorita Leaf, use Impact!"

Under Baron Mettler's command, the tiny chicory leaf darted towards Lu Ming, whose face was somewhat pale, intending to attack this sick cat first.

pity......

"Grassland field, straw rope knots!"

At Lu Ming's command, the Queen of the Night caused a large amount of impossible green grass to grow on the arena. Just as everyone was speechless with shock, several knotted green grass traps suddenly appeared from the grass blocking Chrysanthemum Leaf's path, tripping Chrysanthemum Leaf and causing her to fall.

When it finally managed to get up, it heard Lu Ming say from not far away, "Sleep powder."

Only then did Chicory realize that the tall Queen of the Night had come up behind it. At this moment, even if it wanted to resist, it was powerless and could only be buried by a large patch of blue powder in the Queen of the Night's smile.

"Chikorita is asleep, the winner is Baron Lu Ming! His Tyrant Flower completely defeated the novice Mettel's Chikorita! Moreover, the ability to make grass grow on a wooden arena that shouldn't grow is exceptionally powerful!!"

While listening to the host speak, Miral jotted down the skills Lu Ming used in her notebook, and at the same time asked Sham beside her, "Before Vileplume evolves, how will Lu Ming command Gloom?"

Although Sham didn't particularly like Miral memorizing Lu Ming's tactics, he had to sigh slightly because Lu Ming's daughter, Kanina, would also need to use them, so he replied, "It should be the 'Clear Weather' and 'Petal Dance' tactics."

"Sunny Day plus Petal Dance?" Miral gritted his teeth, pondering how Lucario and Snorlax should counter this tactic.

At this moment, Lu Ming, who had already won, did not return to the rest room. Because he was exhausted and did not want to walk through the long tunnel again, Lu Ming sat down in the spectator seats next to the tunnel to rest for a while.

"The Queen of the Rings has just won, so let's take a look at the performance of the Beauty Flower! Now emerging from the Red Team's tunnel is the Golden Lion Cub, Baron McGrath Rasfal, and his Beauty Flower!"

Hearing the host's call, Lu Ming, who was standing there with his eyes closed, opened them and glanced at Little Rasfar's beautiful flower.

As a Pokémon that evolves from Gloom, Bellossom's body color isn't the deep blue of the Oddish family, but rather a grassy green. Furthermore, with its alternating red and yellow petals on either side of its head, it's much smaller than Vileplume. Add to that the pleasant rustling sound its lower body, resembling a grass skirt, makes when it walks, and it's clear it's a Pokémon primarily for aesthetic purposes.

However, as another evolutionary form of Gloom, Bellossom is not as fragile as it appears.

In Lu Ming's memory, there were many ways to play Beauty Flower, but he didn't know how Little Rasfar would command Beauty Flower.

"The opponent who can rival Baron McGrath Rasfar is our Baron Aikura Ella the Jackal and his Fire Fox!"

"That Jackal kid?" As he watched Baron Aykula Ella, the fox he had faced in the exhibition match, and his adult fire fox emerge from the blue team's tunnel, Lu Ming's lips curled into a slight smile.

Although it seems like Firefox is at a disadvantage against Beauty Blossom, Lu Ming believes that Jackal is in danger this time.

Beautiful Flower's level, abilities, attack power, and destructive power are far beyond what Fire Fox can match. Furthermore, Little Rasfar is a swordsman. By all accounts, this is a one-sided match.

"Now that both sides have arrived, let the match begin!!"

As the announcer declared the start of the match, Rasfar Jr. and Ekula Ella began their battle.

"Fireball!" Because of Lu Ming's matches in the previous two days, the reputation of plant-type magical beasts had become quite renowned. Therefore, Aikura dared not be careless and could only try to seize the initiative, hoping to gain a sliver of a chance of victory.

However, Rasfar Jr. shattered his hopes.

"Protect beautiful flowers!"
