Elf: I asked you to take the college entrance examination, and you took out a modifier?

"If you have any questions when practicing this skill, just tell me at any time. I will prepare some more blocks that replenish the energy of the ground and rock attributes for you later."

"Shaki!!"

"Hmm? Are you saying it's really okay for me? It's okay."

Yun Xiao stood next to Shakiras with a wry smile on his face.

At this moment, he looked extremely miserable, as if he had just been dug out from the Sahara Desert. His whole body was covered with brown sand and his clothes were dyed light yellow.

Even his facial features were covered by the sand, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed.

That’s right, just after Shakiras used sandstorm, a fierce sandstorm blew up directly above the open space.

Yun Xiao, who was in the center of the sandstorm, naturally became like this even though he retreated a few steps in advance.

But Yun Xiao's happiness in his heart was real.

After the sandstorm skill was strengthened, it directly covered an area of ​​about five or six meters around it and could be used in actual combat.

Not only that, the intensity of the sandstorm is also a world apart from before it strengthened.

After Shakiras's Sand Hiding was triggered, his entire body was successfully hidden in the sand and dust. Even his wave power took some effort to accurately locate it.

You know, Shakiras has just mastered this skill.

As you become more proficient in using it and the level of Shakiras increases, the effect of the sandstorm will naturally become more and more powerful!

"Next, you should practice more here. Come on, I'm counting on you."

Yun Xiao gave some instructions and then left the simulated secret realm.

He seemed to be busy taking a shower.

Shakiras was recalling the scene just now, deep in thought.

He could clearly feel that after he released this skill just now, his strength suddenly increased by leaps and bounds.

The speed of this growth and becoming stronger even shocked myself!

In other words...as long as you practice this skill diligently, you will quickly become stronger.

And being stronger means...

——You can eat more ores!

Thinking of this, Shakiras' eyes lit up, and without hesitation, he immediately began to condense the next sandstorm.

...

Yun Xiao returned to the dormitory, took a shower, changed into a new set of clothes, and sat on the edge of the bed, thinking about something.

With the improvement brought by Sword Dance, the strength of the King of Leave has made a further leap. Now he should have no problem defeating the high-level Pokémon of the Gym Leader.

And since Shakiras has mastered such a powerful sandstorm, his future is bright.

From this perspective, the only legendary beast in his team, Rayquaza, has no enhancements or opportunities except for the Delta meteorite.

But Yun Xiao's wave power always gave off a feeling from Rayquaza's body.

That is, there is still a terrifying and powerful energy hidden in this guy's body, which has not been activated yet.

Yun Xiao speculated that this was a unique power belonging to the divine beast, and it could only be activated when Rayquaza reached a certain level of strength.

And by then, Rayquaza will be considered to have entered its "mature stage".

Yes, even though Rayquaza’s strength has now reached the level of a gym master, considering the situation of this clan, he is still just a "baby dragon".

In that case, there is no need to rush, just wait for him to grow up slowly.

By the time Rayquaza breaks through the Gym Master level and enters the King stage, it should be about the same.

Oh yeah, speaking of this...

Yun Xiao turned his gaze and looked at the system panel hovering in front of him.

Shortly after completing the previous main task, a new task was refreshed and landed here.

[SS-level main mission: March to the King! ]

[Introduction: You have become an elite trainer, but before certain upcoming events, this strength is far from enough. ]

[Task requirements: At least one Pokémon in the team must be upgraded to the "Top Level of Gym Owner"]

[Mission Reward: After successfully unlocking the altar, you will get an extra secret about Arceus]

Yun Xiao's eyes fell on the last line of text and his heart stagnated.

Arceus had told himself when he entered the altar that time was running out.

Although this sentence has no beginning or end, Yun Xiao always feels inexplicably uneasy every time he thinks of it.

It's like...something is about to happen.

This feeling is very bad.

He sighed slightly.

What I hate most is the situation where I know something is going to happen but I have no idea about the situation.

Whatever.

Becoming stronger is just my own wish.

The next stage after entering the gym owner level is the top gym owner level.

The owner stage is a very special stage.

The strength growth rate of the elves that enter this stage will slow down as it continues to improve, until it finally reaches the top level of gym owners.

Different from entry-level promotion and professional breakthrough to elite level, if a gym owner-level elf wants to break through to the king level, it requires more than just hard work and various resources.

A lot of resources, long-term accumulation, outstanding talent, and a certain amount of luck.

If you want to become a king of heaven, these conditions are indispensable.

Many highly qualified elves, after reaching the top gym owner stage, may not be able to make further breakthroughs for decades.

Therefore, this special stage of the top gym owner is also called "quasi-king" - below the king and above the gym owner.

The main task is to let Yun Xiao reach the stage of "quasi-king".

Judging from the current situation in the team, the one who can reach this level of strength the earliest should be the King of Taking Leave.

But after the King of Leave evolved and his strength reached the middle level of a gym owner, Yun Xiao discovered a problem.

The level of the Leave King is increasing slower and slower.

Although the overall strength is far superior to the elves of the same level, level is the basis of strength after all - especially after the stage after the King of Heaven, fighting against higher levels will no longer be so easy, at least it will be difficult and weak.

This situation occurs, on the one hand, because the road for the elves to advance to the gym owner level is indeed long and difficult.

Another reason is that the previous leave-taking king had three simulated secret realms covering each level stage, providing four times the massive experience points.

And now, as the level of the King of Leave has exceeded the 40th level, even the elves in the Lava Secret Realm can no longer provide the King with additional experience points.

Even because the level of the King of Leave was far higher than theirs, even the basic experience points were greatly reduced.

The best solution to this situation is -

Or, find a way to obtain a higher level simulated secret realm from the system.

Or, like those trainers, take the King of Leave into the high-level secret realm, challenge high-level wild Pokémon, and gain experience to improve yourself.

Since the simulated secret realm cannot be obtained in a specific time and it all depends on your luck, the latter option might be more appropriate.

Anyway, with the power of super-conquer, the power of evergreen, and the affinity of elves, the possibility of encountering danger will be greatly reduced.

Thinking of this, Yun Xiao raised his head and looked out the window.

To be honest, his current speed of improvement in strength is already very fast.

But this does not mean that we can be lazy and stop there.

When you stop, you will naturally miss some opportunities.

...

Time passed quickly and it was night.

There is no curfew at Shanghai University, and the lights will not be cut off. At this time, there are still many students wandering around outside for fun, and some students are studying late into the night in the training grounds and library.

Even at the top elf university in the country, the path chosen by each student is completely different.

In the dormitory, Yun Xiao glanced at the clock hand on the wall that skipped past twelve o'clock, and took out the plot shuttle scroll from the system backpack.

The seven-day cool-down period has passed, and now it's time to return to the story world.

This time, he was finally able to get the reward for collecting the mythical beast illustrations.

As Yun Xiao took out the scroll, a line of prompts appeared in front of his eyes.

[Please note that the item has already cooled down. If the host wants to enter the next plot mission, he needs to upgrade his strength to the King level.]

[In addition, if the host wants to return to the story world that has been cleared, the item will enter a one-month cooldown period. ]

"Why is the cooldown period for completing a mission only one week, but the cooldown period for returning once is one month?"

Yun Xiao couldn't help but wonder.

[Returning to the host, the completed plot world has successfully become independent from the timeline and has become a real parallel world, so traveling back and forth requires more energy. ]

"what do you mean--"

[Yes, before this, this world had been destroyed in the past.]

The system said.

Yun Xiao suddenly understood.

It turned out to be the case.

According to the time flow of his current world, Lucario's world had already been destroyed and disappeared due to that disaster thousands of years ago.

But he went back to the past through the time-travel scroll and saved the World Tree, which directly led to a change in history!

The world has thus been reborn and has embarked on a new destiny!

Yun Xiao was secretly surprised.
