As the sound faded, it transformed into a sword beam, slicing through the night sky and disappearing without a trace.

Chapter 118 Rayquaza Token
The moment Zhao Xuan and Li Xiaoyue stepped out of the passage, a powerful gust of air, like an exploding volcano, surged towards them. This aura was so intensely hot that it seemed capable of igniting everything around them.
At the same time, a hearty laugh reached their ears. The laughter, like a booming bell, echoed in the air, making their eardrums ache.
"Hahaha, kid, looks like you've had quite a haul!" The voice was full of heart and confidence, making one curious about who it was.
Zhao Xuan looked in the direction of the sound and saw a Pokémon with Western dragon characteristics descending from the sky.
This Pokémon's skin is primarily orange, with cream-colored markings from its belly to the tip of its tail and the soles of its feet. It has short, sturdy lower limbs and relatively slender upper limbs, each with three sharp claws, and its feet also have three pointed claws.
It has huge wings on its back that it can use for flight. The inside of the wings is blue-green, and there are horn-like protrusions at the third joint.
It has a long neck, small blue eyes, two horn-like protrusions on the back of its head, and a long, thick tail with flames burning at the end.
This is a fire-breathing dragon.
On his back stood a middle-aged man in military uniform, his well-developed muscles making the uniform bulge, like a muscle maniac.
This is none other than Lieutenant General Lei Yanlei.
Thud! With a dull thud, the Charizard crashed to the ground like a meteor. Its powerful body slammed into the earth, producing a deafening sound that seemed to make the entire earth tremble.
Lei Yan gracefully leaped down from the fire-breathing dragon's back, landing steadily on the ground. His posture was upright, exuding an aura of majesty. His piercing gaze swept across the surroundings before finally settling on Li Xiaoyue.
Li Xiaoyue felt Lei Yan's gaze and couldn't help but feel a little nervous. However, Lei Yan's gaze only lingered for a moment before quickly shifting to Zhao Xuan.
Zhao Xuan stood not far away, his figure appearing somewhat small under Lei Yan's gaze. But when Lei Yan's eyes met his, Zhao Xuan did not back down, but bravely met that imposing gaze.
A hint of admiration flashed in Lei Yan's tiger-like eyes, a recognition of Zhao Xuan's courage and strength.
"My name is Lei Yan, and I am in charge of this secret realm incident."
Not only was Lei Yan sizing up Zhao Xuan, but Zhao Xuan was also sizing up Lei Yan. He could tell Lei Yan's identity just by looking at the insignia on his shoulder.
And that terrifying, volcanic aura is something that trainers on a ship can't possess.
"Hello, Lieutenant General Lei." Although he was thinking about other things, Zhao Xuan still greeted him politely.
Li Xiaoyue also greeted him, as she had never met someone of such high rank before and was a little nervous.
After exchanging greetings, Li Xiaoyue didn't say anything more.
"Hehe, come with me, kid, let's have a good chat." Lei Yan looked at Zhao Xuan and said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Xuan looked at Li Xiaoyue.
As if knowing what Zhao Xuan wanted to say, Lei Yan said directly, "I will have someone take this young lady home, so don't worry."
"Thank you very much." Zhao Xuan said with gratitude upon seeing this.
Seeing this, Lei Yan asked the female major who had just arrived to escort Li Xiaoyue.
"Miss Li, please follow me," the female major said after receiving the order.
"Xiao Xuan?" Li Xiaoyue looked at Zhao Xuan with some concern and called out.
"Xiaoyue, don't worry, I'll be fine." Zhao Xuan knew Li Xiaoyue's concern, so he said.
"Haha, little girl, don't worry, I won't do anything to your little lover." Lei Yan laughed heartily and teased.
Lei Yan's words made Li Xiaoyue blush, and she whispered in protest, "No, we're not like that..."
If the people present hadn't been extraordinary individuals, they probably wouldn't have been able to hear it.
"Sister Xiaoyue, you go back first. I'll go with Lieutenant General Lei." Zhao Xuan rolled his eyes at Lei Yan, speechless. He hadn't expected this big-eyed guy to have such a wicked sense of humor.
After saying a few words to Li Xiaoyue, he left with Lei Yan.
Seeing this, Li Xiaoyue picked up the fire fox and followed the female major away.
……
Half an hour later, Zhao Xuan walked out of the command post, took a deep look at the command post, and then got into the military vehicle that had been waiting for him.
"Boom!!" As the engine of the military vehicle roared to life, it drove away from the command post.
As the military vehicle drove away, Lei Yan walked out of the command post. Watching the vehicle disappear into the distance, a bright smile appeared on his face as he murmured to himself, "It seems that in ten years, Yan Hua will have another Venerable One."
Meanwhile, Zhao Xuan, who was in the car, had a jade token with the Rift Seat carved on both sides in his hand, and a bright smile appeared on his face.
Although Lei Yan knew that he had a divine beast, it wasn't a bad thing.
The idea of keeping wealth hidden was of little use to Zhao Xuan.
With his abilities, he has already developed significantly.
In addition, being born in the relatively united country of Yanhua, as long as Zhao Xuan doesn't betray the country, nothing will happen to him.
Moreover, Zhao Xuan didn't tell Lei Yan about this himself; Lei Yan figured it out on his own.
When Zhao Xuan heard those words, he was utterly astonished. He never expected that Lei Yan could even see through such a thing.
Zhao Xuan could only sigh in admiration, "As expected of a Champion-level trainer, his eyesight is truly exceptional."
However, Lei Yan congratulated Zhao Xuan and then gave him some instructions before handing over the 433 jade token.
This token is the mark of a legendary Pokémon trainer, and of course it has other uses as well. It can grant greater privileges on the trainer's official website, but that's not all.
"What an unexpected gain." Zhao Xuan flipped his hand, and the token disappeared.
This was the unexpected gain Zhao Xuan mentioned: his cheat system created a space of about ten square meters, which greatly increased his convenience.
"Big brother, head to Dada Supermarket on North Street." Zhao Xuan's phone suddenly vibrated. He glanced at the message and spoke.
"Okay," the driver replied.
The reason he went to Dada Supermarket was because the competition he had signed up for there a few days ago had already started.
And it's already been going on for several days, today is the final.
He had just come out of the passage when he received messages from Jiang Tianhao and Shi Miao, not only messages but also phone calls—more than a dozen in total.
Everyone was asking where he went and why he had suddenly disappeared.
Upon seeing this, Zhao Xuan sent a message to the two of them.
His phone just vibrated; it was a message from Jiang Tianhao saying that their final was today and asking if he wanted to go check it out.
Zhao Xuan naturally had to go and see what was going on.

Chapter 119 Circle Bear VS Lapras
Dada Arena.
At this moment, the entire arena was incredibly lively, with shouts of encouragement and cheers echoing throughout the arena.
"Go!! Go go go!!"
"Go, Big-billed Sparrow!!"
With a screech of brakes, Zhao Xuan got out of the military vehicle, thanked the driver, and headed towards the arena.
The Dada Arena and Dada Supermarket are practically just across the street from each other. The owner of Dada is quite the shrewd businessman; he managed to link the arena and his supermarket together.
I also understand people's psychology. Trainers who come to the Grand Arena will unconsciously take a stroll around Grand Arena after they come out.
Since trainers are considered a high-spending group, Dada has made a fortune off them.
As soon as Zhao Xuan entered the arena, he was greeted by deafening cheers.
There was also the roar of a gun.
"Zhao Xuan, over here!!" Before Zhao Xuan could use his wave power to find Jiang Tianhao and Shi Miao, he heard Shi Miao's clear voice.
Following the sound, Zhao Xuan saw Ke Shi Miao waving at him.
Upon seeing this, Zhao Xuan quickly walked over.
"Shi Miao, where's Haozi?" Zhao Xuan asked, seeing that Shi Miao was alone.
"Today is his final match against Young Master Da, so of course it'll be on the stage below," Shi Miao said with a smile, pointing to the stage below.
"Oh, I didn't expect Haozi to actually make it to the finals. He's really impressive." Zhao Xuan said jokingly, then sat down with Shi Miao and looked down at the arena.
"Holographic projection activated, site randomly selected as—glacial lake!"
Just then, a mechanical voice of an electronic referee rang out, and a circular body of water with a diameter of fifty meters rose in the center of the arena. Cold mist rose from the surface, and six ice floes were randomly distributed, their layers intertwined with the water to create a complex terrain.
Below, Jiang Tianhao stroked his chin, his leather jacket fluttering in the air conditioning vents, as he spun a Poké Ball around in his palm.
"Old buddy, I'm going to give you a treat today~" He chuckled at the Poké Ball, but his gaze remained fixed on the opposite player's lane.
A woman dressed in white emerged from the shadows, her long, ice-blue hair styled into an updo with a test tube-shaped hairpin.
"Lin Xue." The woman adjusted her gold-rimmed glasses, a Lapras Poké Ball dangling from her fingertip. "Please enlighten me."
"Come forth, dragon!!"
After the flash of red light, the lower part of its skin, from chin to tail tip, was white. It had a protrusion on its head and spiral structures on either side. Its back had a gray shell with many uneven bumps. It had four fins, the first two being the larger ones.
As soon as Chenglong appeared, he let out a sound full of passion.
"Woo~~"
Seeing this, Jiang Tianhao stopped talking and released the Circle Bear as well.
As soon as the circly bear appeared, it roared in response, not to be outdone.
"Roar!!"
"Circo Bear!! Get close to Lapras! Then use Claws!!"
"Laser!! Arctic Ray!!"
As Jiang Tianhao and Lin Xue commanded their respective Pokémon to battle, the atmosphere in the arena became even more intense.
Zhao Xuan and Shi Miao looked at the large curtain wall.
The holographic projection divided the battlefield into eight perspectives, three of which were locked onto the strange ripples on the dragon's tail fin. He turned to Shi Miao beside him and asked, "Shi Miao, what place did you get?"
"I lost to Jiang Tianhao in the end and stopped at fifth place," Shi Miao said with some disappointment.
"By the way, Zhao Xuan, who do you think will win, Jiang Tianhao or Lin Xue?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Xuan smiled and said, "I can't tell. Their strengths are about the same; it all depends on their command."
Zhao Xuan wasn't actually lying. In his view, both Jiang Tianhao and Lin Xue were trainers who had experienced real battles, and their strengths were roughly the same. In this situation, it all came down to their individual command abilities.
"beep!!!!"
Just then, the electronic whistle of the battlefield interrupted their conversation. The teddy bear landed heavily, its brown fur standing on end in the cold air.
The dragon gracefully enters the water, its tail fin swaying lightly as it circles to the opposite corner of the arena, ice crystals condensing around it to form a rotating hexagonal shield.
"Earthquake!" Jiang Tianhao's roar and the Circle Bear's howl exploded simultaneously. The bear's paws slammed into the ice, and spiderweb-like cracks instantly spread, causing the entire body of water to tremble violently. But the Dragon had already submerged underwater, and the shockwave only created a five-meter-high wall of waves on the surface.
Lin Xue's voice was as steady as a precision instrument: "Absolute zero."
"Woo!!" The dragon opened its mouth wide and roared.
A beam of azure light shot out from underwater, transforming into an ice storm the instant it touched the air. The Circly Bear, frozen in its thrashing pose, was turned into an ice sculpture, and the ice grew wildly along its fur, covering half the area in the blink of an eye.
"Amazing!!"
"Holy crap!! That's terrifyingly cold!!" The audience gasped as the surrounding temperature gauges instantly plummeted to minus fifteen degrees Celsius.
“Attribute advantage is no joke.” Shi Miao said with some worry, “It seems Jiang Tianhao is going to suffer a setback.”
No matter what, Jiang Tianhao was her friend, and of course she didn't want him to lose.
"That's not necessarily the case."
Zhao Xuan didn't look at the time, but said softly, his eyes fixed on the right paw of the circled bear in the holographic projection.
Beneath the ice, dark red energy was gathering in the bear's claws—that was...
