Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

It can greatly alleviate his financial pressure.

There was also the trainer who was sent by Hoshino Ryuichi to kill him, along with her five Pokémon of the near-Elite Four level and one Gym Leader level.

Selling these Pokémon isn't very risky, but absolute safety can't be guaranteed either.

Therefore, Xia Yan ultimately chose to hand them over to some professional executioners in the Hunter's Guild in exchange for necessary materials, such as poison sacs.

As for why there are risks...

Because he couldn't guarantee who would end up with the elves he sold.

If Hoshino Ryuichi or that person's organization deliberately paid attention to the movements of these Pokémon and bought them.

There are still some ways to understand the situation at that time through their memories, descriptions, and other means.

Pokémon that have been trained have a different knowledge base than ordinary wild Pokémon; they can explain things in general terms to a certain extent.

Xia Yan and Hoshino Ryuichi have practically broken off all ties; he killed the man and he's not afraid of being found out.

The main concern is the possibility that super-evolution might be exposed.

Although the probability is less than one in ten thousand.

After all, a long time has passed, and the Pokémon world is so vast that the chances of Xia Yan selling his Pokémon in different regions are extremely slim.

In fact, part of the reason was that Xia Yan wanted to use these venom sacs to enhance the venom of the Beedrill.

The poison sac of a near-Elite Four level Pokémon isn't something you can just buy.

Besides those that need to be sold, and those that can utilize surplus value, there's also the large group of lampshade mushrooms and sleeping mushrooms.

Xia Yan wanted to place them on his ranch to see if he could recreate the scene of the Fairy Forest in the Liekong Silent Space.

Once the Fairy type appears, their value will skyrocket.

These are all gains from the elf side.

There are also items and props.

The most important ones are still those few items.

A Rayquaza's dragon scale, Latios's Mega Stone, two Elite Four-level "Dragon Scales", two Dark-type Pure Crystals, and an "Earth Membrane" that Aegislash had already used up on the spot.

That's all for now.

Xia Yan stretched lazily in the chair.

Holding a cup of coffee, I swivel my chair to look out the floor-to-ceiling window, inhaling the faintly bitter yet invigorating aroma, and a smile spreads across my face.

Although the existence of other dimensions is dangerous, each entry into them is a huge boost to his strength or resources.

"High risk, but also high reward."

Xia Yan has decided to use a large portion of the money he is about to receive to exchange for top-tier energy cubes with elf-specific properties.

outside the window.

Suiyi Town has entered a period of rapid development.

Within the town, you can see at least two or three Devon construction sites almost every time you look up.

and.

Advertisements for the "German Little Cup" were posted in every corner of the town.

Although the planning took much longer than Xia Yan had imagined, it allowed him to catch the start of the tournament just in time.

Knock knock—

"Please come in."

"Mr. Xia Yan."

Kikuna entered through the door.

behind her.

Followed by a middle-aged man who was slightly thin but appeared very composed.

He was chosen by Natsuhiko before he left Random Town to take over Kikuna's job as the gym manager.

He was dressed in an impeccably tailored butler's uniform, one hand on his abdomen and the other behind his back. He kept his eyes down, avoiding direct eye contact with Xia Yan, and his expression was calm and his attitude respectful.

He wasn't the most educated, the most capable, or even the most experienced among the people Kikuna gave to Natsuhiko.

He seems like an ordinary person.

However, one aspect of his resume caught Xia Yan's attention.

He briefly served as the acting steward of the Sooto City Gym in the Hoenn region.

Although the term of office was short.

The main reason is that he is not from the Hoenn region; his hometown is Sinnoh, and he ultimately chose to return to his hometown.

Xia Yan knew Mikoli, so he made a special call to inquire about his situation.

In summary, Mikkelsen's assessment was that he had a clear background, was a very honest person, and had good abilities, but lacked a pioneering spirit.

Xia Yan quickly finalized his decision.

Xia Yan doesn't need to be particularly capable; as long as his background is clean and upright, it's enough for him to manage the daily operations of a dojo.

"Kikuna, Yamato." Natsuhiko smiled and nodded.

After receiving a signal from Natsuhiko and Kikuna, Yamato stepped forward to report on the dojo's earnings during this period, as well as the progress of the cup tournament that was being arranged.

Kikuna and the others will be leaving after this tournament, so some of the handover of affairs is already underway.

"Thanks to Mr. Xia Yan's reputation, the level of attention this German mini-competition has received has exceeded our expectations. This is the list of players who have already registered. Some of them are quite famous, so I have marked them carefully."

Yamato respectfully placed the list on Natsuhiko's desk.

"Thank you for your hard work," Xia Yan said politely.

I put down my coffee cup and picked up the list, looking at it from top to bottom.

So, Yamato does have the ability. He investigated the backgrounds of these contestants, and those he circled were naturally the ones Xia Yan was most concerned about.

But when he saw these people's names, he felt terrible.

Daye, A-Liu, Wusong, Dianci, A-Li...

He twitched the corner of his mouth.

Can I refuse their registration?

What's going on here?

Should we turn a small cup competition into a preliminary round of the "Lily of the Valley Grand Prix"?

Look at the kind of people this group has.

Are they here to participate in the cup competition?

Their goal was to get a chance to beat him up!

"I'm afraid not, Mr. [Name], their participation would also be a form of publicity for our small tournament."

Currently, almost all seats in our venue, whether package tickets or individual tickets, are reserved.

In fact, many companies have already invested in advertising space, and all the designated stalls outside the dojo have been rented out.

Even Devon didn't anticipate the tournament's immense popularity, so they increased their investment in it.

They also proactively requested to set up a temporary screen outside the dojo so that spectators who couldn't get tickets but still came to watch the competition could experience the atmosphere.

Yamato directly rejected Xia Yan's words, and then listed on a piece of paper the benefits that the dojo had gained even before the competition had started.

obviously.

Through this tournament, the dojo directly escaped the deficit.

Furthermore, it has received substantial financial support, enough to ensure that the dojo will not have to worry about funding issues for a long time to come.

Xia Yan waved his hand.

He knew that, of course, but he was just joking.

Most of these people come with their own built-in audience.

Having experienced the era where traffic was king, Xia Yan clearly understands the value these participants bring to the competition.

"In addition, the entire town of Random has also received a significant commercial boost, with shops and hotels seeing a substantial increase in revenue, which will be a long-term source of income for our dojo."

As the official organization of the league, the dojo is responsible for a portion of the city's security, management, and teaching obligations. Therefore, a certain percentage of the city's annual tax revenue is allocated to the dojo.

The more developed the city, the greater the annual revenue of the dojo.

Like Xia Yan.

He spent a lot of money early on to buy all the shops in front of the dojo while the prices were still low.

With the development of Suiyi Town, the rental income alone is enough for him to make a lot of money.

Not to mention the projects developed in cooperation with German companies.

Xia Yan opened the dojo to make money, and he invested a lot of his own money in it.

just now.

The money is finally going to start flowing back.

Yamato presented Xia Yan with a report detailing the dojo's total revenue over the recent period.

"Thirty million? Is that all?" Xia Yan was somewhat surprised when he saw the number.

How long has it been?

He had only been away from the dojo for about a month.

They were in the red before they left, but now they've turned a profit and even earned 30 million Alliance Coins.

"This is just the initial revenue. Many companies that have reserved advertising space have only paid a deposit, and the final payment has not yet been made. However, the money will gradually arrive in the next few days. According to my calculations, the dojo's actual revenue may exceed 60 million League Coins."

Yamato appeared very confident.

"Of course, the main reason is that most of the expenses were borne by Devon. If we want to hold cup competitions in the future, without the support of large companies, the revenue will probably not be as high, but it will not be less either."
