The game comes to reality! Start by tyrannizing Professor Oak

Chen Qi took out a Poké Ball and recalled Monini.

Then he said goodbye to Shen Qingqing.

"Miss Qingqing, all the Energy Cubes prepared for Venusaur and Torterra have been given to Uncle Li."

"Then I shall take my leave."

"Mr. Chen Qi, I have prepared a car for you."

"Let someone take you there directly," Shen Qingqing said.

"Okay, thank you for your help."

"No trouble, it should be."

Chen Qi did not refuse. It was quite a distance from Shen Qingqing's manor to the place he had agreed to meet with Lu Qiming, and it was also inconvenient to take a taxi here.

Chen Qi got into the car arranged by Shen Qingqing, and as he watched the scenery rushing past the window, his thoughts drifted away.

At times like these, it would be great to have a Pokémon like Charizard that can fly and be ridden.

Traveling will be much more convenient.

Thinking about this, Chen Qi became even more excited for the upcoming trial.

The vehicle was speeding along.

They soon arrived at a location familiar to Chen Qi.

Qidu Street.

A building in a remote corner.

This is the location of the underground arena, and also the place where Lu Qiming and he had agreed to meet.

Opening the door, getting out of the car, Chen Qi walked into the building with practiced ease.

"Mr. Chen Qi, you've arrived."

"The boss is already waiting for you in the underground arena."

Upon and his Derubi were still guarding the gate, but this time when they saw Chen Qi, their attitude completely changed. They were extremely respectful, which made Chen Qi feel very unfamiliar with them. For a moment, Chen Qi thought they were different people.

Chen Qi nodded to him and then walked inside.

Entering the elevator and descending, the familiar scene reappeared before my eyes: that dark tunnel.

Chen Qi turned his head to look at the wall on one side, as if he had thought of something, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up slightly.

He silently walked to the familiar spot.

He tapped the stone wall lightly with his backhand, as if to greet the little guy living in the shadows.

He didn't bother them any further.

He simply took out a tube of energy cubes that Monini had specially customized for him from his pouch, placed it in the corner of the wall, and then walked straight through the passageway.

After he left, the dark passageway returned to its deathly silence.

From the shadows, a pair of somewhat timid eyes slowly emerged, gazing intently at the direction where Chen Qi had disappeared. Then, they mustered their courage and reached out a hand, grabbing the tube of energy cube and pulling it into the shadows.

"Mado—?"

Marshall, in the shadows, stared at the energy cube in his hand, tilted his head, and let out a puzzled cry.

Unable to contain his curiosity, he opened the sealed lid, and a rich aroma immediately wafted out, making Marshado's eyes light up.

It smells so good!

Even before tasting it, my mouth was already watering uncontrollably.

Marshall couldn't wait to pour out one and put it in his mouth.

A taste of happiness exploded in his mouth.

Marcia's previously languid gaze suddenly became round and sparkling.

……

And at the same time.

Chen Qi had already arrived at the familiar underground arena.

The battlefield was still surrounded by eight pillars in all directions, but this time, apart from Lu Qiming, there was no one else present.

And in the center of the battlefield.

Then an extra stone platform appeared.

"You came!"

"I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

Seeing Chen Qi approach, Lu Qiming felt a surge of excitement.

He had also been looking forward to this trial of his homeland for a long time, waiting for the right opportunity.

He wouldn't normally bring anyone else into such a welfare bureau trial, because having more people would introduce more unknown risks and potentially increase the difficulty of the mission.

However, after witnessing Chen Qi's strength...

Lu Qiming, however, completely changed his mind.

A simple welfare bureau is too unchallenging, and the benefits and growth potential are quite limited.

But what if you have an extra powerful teammate?

This increased the difficulty of the trial, which was originally intended as a welfare event, will naturally bring more substantial trial rewards and benefits.

He believes that he will eventually be able to achieve a win-win situation with Chen Qi.

"We agreed to meet at ten o'clock."

"I wasn't late."

Chen Qi took out his phone, tapped the screen, and the time on it jumped from 9:59 to 10:00.

"Let's get started."

"I can't wait any longer!"

Chen Qi put away his phone and then stepped into the battlefield, approaching Lu Qiming and urging him on.

Hearing Chen Qi start urging him.

Lu Qiming couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle; it seemed this guy was even more anxious than he was.

Lu Qiming didn't hesitate and directly took out his trainer license and put it into the slot of the stone platform that suddenly appeared in the middle of the battlefield.

They began to work on the stone platform.

What I initially thought was a simple stone platform actually turns out to be some kind of high-precision control device.

Chen Qi looked at it curiously.

"This is the Trial Pillar."

"Once you have completed 5 trials, insert the Trainer License into it, and you can begin the Home Trial."

"I have changed the number of participants in the trial to 2."

"Once you insert your Trainer License into the other slot, you can come with me to my home turf trial."

Seeing that Chen Qi was staring at him but didn't make a move.

Lu Qiming couldn't help but feel a little strange.

A trainer of this caliber must have accumulated at least 5 trials, but it's also possible that they haven't yet activated their home territory trial.

So, he had no choice but to take the initiative to explain and introduce it to Chen Qi.

"Oh!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Qi nodded.

He took out his Trainer License and inserted it into the other slot.

"Ok?"

Lu Qiming stared at Chen Qi, stunned.

Chen Qi's movements did not avoid him, nor did they conceal the information on the trainer's license. Although it was just a glance, Lu Qiming still clearly saw a large number: 1!

What the hell?

Was he seeing things?!

What was the number of trials he just saw?

1?

That can't be right, he must have missed a 1!

Unwilling to accept defeat, Lu Qiming would never choose internal strife. He directly asked the question that had been bothering him, "I just saw that your trial session number is 1?"

"I must have seen it wrong, right?"

"You're not mistaken."

As the trainer license information was entered, Chen Qi's trainer card popped out of the slot, and Chen Qi waved it in front of Lu Qiming.

The large number [1] was flashing brightly in front of my eyes.

This was like a bolt of lightning striking Lu Qiming!

Rumbling--

He suddenly felt like the sky was about to fall.

Just then, a trial light shone on the stone platform, gradually enveloping Chen Qi and Lu Qiming, whose faces were filled with astonishment and disbelief.

Chen Qi, on the other hand, felt a completely different emotion, his heart overflowing with undisguised joy and elation.

The trial begins!

A valley teeming with fire-breathing dragons!

—I'm here!

Chapter 95 Wild Charizard? Go, Poké Ball!

The building housing the underground arena.

First floor entrance.

The area remained eerily quiet, without a trace of human presence.

Upon and Derubi, who were guarding the gate, were now leaning against the wall, fast asleep.

Sunlight streamed through the windows and fell on their faces, but it still showed no sign of waking them.

Backlit, one can vaguely see colorful dust particles dancing freely in the air under the sunlight.

Time.

Tranquil and languid.

……

Trial of Belonging to Homeland.

—Fire-Breathing Dragon Valley.

Chen Qi's figure appeared on a steep mountain path.

"Is this... the Fire-Breathing Dragon Valley?"

Chen Qi looked around curiously. As far as the eye could see, there were mountains upon mountains, all covered in a crimson red.

All the mountains were bare, without a trace of any trees, or even a single spirit.

However, this environment gave Chen Qi a sense of familiarity.

"It seems we haven't reached the real Fire-Breathing Dragon Valley yet."

"We've only reached the mountain range where Charizard Valley is located."
