Li Yunjie strongly disapproved of his older brother's hands-off approach to management.

My older brother is good in every way, except he doesn't like to get involved in things.

However, Zhao Xuan had a different opinion about his younger sister's words, and said with a smile, "Yun Jie, don't worry. Three-legged toads are hard to find, but there are plenty of oxen and horses. I already know who to put in place of Li Zhi."

Although Zhao Xuan didn't like doing those things, the others really liked it, since it could earn them extra points and help them get into better universities.

After all, not everyone is like Zhao Xuan, who is incredibly talented, a top student, and has no fear of not getting into a good university.

"Brother, you might as well just be lazy to death." Li Yunjie couldn't help but complain when he saw his brother's indifferent attitude.

"Smack..." But what greeted her was a flick on the forehead from Zhao Xuan, along with Zhao Xuan's lecturing voice: "How can you talk about your own brother like that?"

"Also, I heard from your aunt that your grades have dropped a bit lately."

"Brother, you've really messed me up..." Li Yunjie muttered softly, clutching the spot where he had been slapped.

"Huh? What did you say?" Zhao Xuan glanced at his sister and said.

Seeing this, Li Yunjie quickly continued, "I didn't say anything, brother. I meant that I will study hard in the future and will definitely not let you and my parents bear the responsibility."

Seeing his sister's resolute expression, Zhao Xuan didn't press her for more details.

After all, he knew his sister's personality.

"You know that much." Zhao Xuan simply said, then looked at Articuno lying alone on the grass. Articuno was now over two meters tall.

A chill still lingered around him from time to time.

This made Zhao Xuan sigh in admiration. This was indeed a divine beast favored by heaven and earth. It hadn't been trained much, and in less than a month, its strength had increased dramatically.

Pokémon: Articuno

Gender: female

Tier: Elite Late Stage

Attributes: Flight, Freeze

Features: Snow Hidden

Aptitude: Level Three God (???)

Skills: Air Slash, Brave Bird Attack, Storm, Freeze Ray, Fine Snow, White Mist, Ice Shards, Eye of the Mind, Primal Power...

Or perhaps they possess the arrogance of legendary Pokémon, as if Articuno and Corviknight are separated by a membrane.

This left Zhao Xuan with few options but to wait and see.

"Brother, Articuno is growing too fast. Will it grow into a giant like Moltres in the capital?" Li Yunjie said as he walked over carrying Pichu.

Although Li Yunjie had never seen a real firebird, he had seen it on television and online.

It was as if it had spread its wings and covered the sky.

Hearing his younger sister's words, Zhao Xuan laughed and said, "Then Articuno would have to reach Champion level to have that size. Right now, it's still a long way off."

After all, reaching the Champion level is not easy, otherwise there wouldn't be so few Champion-level Pokémon.

"Championship level is just a matter of time for you, brother," Li Yunjie said confidently, looking at his older brother, full of confidence in Zhao Xuan.

Zhao Xuan just smiled and didn't say anything.

"By the way, brother, do you know that Yingzi's mother won't let her participate in the league?" Li Yunjie suddenly seemed to remember something and asked Zhao Xuan.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Xuan frowned. He truly didn't know about this, because Qiao Yingzi hadn't told him either.

However, Zhao Xuan suddenly remembered something. Qiao Yingzi had indeed come to see him a couple of days ago, but he was busy at the time, and Qiao Yingzi was rambling on and on, unable to utter a complete sentence.

In the end, Qiao Yingzi simply said it was nothing and hung up the phone.

Zhao Xuan didn't pay attention at the time, but now he thinks it must be this.

With that in mind, Zhao Xuan dialed Li Zhi's number.

"Beep!!" The phone rang only once before it was answered.

As soon as the call connected, Li Zhi's resentful voice came through: "Young Master Zhao, I've been tricked by you again."

"Hehe, Brother Li, it's just that the capable should do more, don't worry, I'll treat you to a good meal in a few days." Zhao Xuan wasn't embarrassed at all, but said with a smile.

Anyway, as long as he is not embarrassed, it is others who are embarrassed.

Of course, Zhao Xuan only mentioned it briefly before changing the subject, "By the way, Brother Li, do you know that Qiao Yingzi?"

"How could I not know? To be honest, Qiao Yingzi is really a dark horse. Her Nine-Tails can even fight on par with high-level Pokémon, and is even stronger than some professionals."

At this point, Li Zhi's tone changed, and he said with some regret, "It's just a pity that her mother doesn't seem to want her to participate. 4.2 said she wants to withdraw, but I told her to think it over carefully and talk to me again on Monday."

"Why, you know her?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Xuan said, "Of course I know him, he's my classmate. That's all for now, see you on Monday."

After Zhao Xuan finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

After Zhao Xuan hung up the phone, Li Yunjie asked, "Brother, how did it go?"

"What do you mean, 'how'? Don't worry about it. I'll talk to Yingzi about it later." Zhao Xuan looked at the curious Li Yunjie, patted her little head, and said.

Upon hearing this, Li Yunjie pouted, looking quite angry.

Chapter 168 Training!

The next day.

The elegant garden of books, Qiao Yingzi's home.

The mother and daughter ate their breakfasts in silence, creating an extremely strange atmosphere.

Looking at her daughter's expressionless face, Song Qian knew that Qiao Yingzi was complaining about her, but she was only trying to do what was best for her daughter, so why couldn't she understand her?

"Mom, Zhao Xuan needs to see me, I need to go out for a bit."

Just then, Qiao Yingzi's somewhat stiff voice rang out, causing Song Qian to pause, her expression shift, before she nodded and said, "Okay, come back soon."

"Okay." Qiao Yingzi nodded, put her tableware in the kitchen, and then went back to her room.

"Phew..." After returning to her room, Qiao Yingzi leaned against the door and let out a sigh of relief. She gave a wry smile and began to change her clothes.

.........

Meanwhile, on Zhao Xuan's side...

It's once again the number one training ground in Shanghai.

In a training arena, Zhao Xuan's four Pokémon are all training.

Corviknight, due to its size, is not particularly fast among Flying-type Pokémon. It doesn't have the speed of Pidgeot's Mach 2 or the explosive power of Talonflame.

Corviknight is rather mediocre in terms of speed.

Of course, Corviknight also has its advantages, such as good stamina and strong special attack.

Therefore, Zhao Xuan had the Steel Crow fly with a load, in addition to avoiding various obstacles.

Also, Lucas is a pure Electric type, and Electric is its strongest ability, along with Speed.

Its training also involves weights and the accuracy of its moves.

Of course, the Kodora also carries a load; after all, even a tank-type vehicle needs speed.

Poison Baby is similar, and also has enhanced poison elements.

"Corviknight, prepare for 10x gravity!" Zhao Xuan stood to the side, watching Corviknight. As soon as the voice rang out, he pressed the gravity adjustment button on the control panel, and a pale blue halo lit up the dome of the training ground.

"Gah!!"

Although Corviknight was prepared, it still suddenly sank, causing Corviknight to let out a long cry involuntarily.

"Whoosh!!" Sparks flew as if metal wings were rubbing against the air.

The electromagnetic mines generated by the holographic projection began to flash, and the 360-degree surrounding obstacle system was activated simultaneously.

The Steel-Armored Raven's scarlet pupils contracted to slits, and it suddenly flapped its wings, creating a shockwave as it weaved through a dense barrage of explosions.

“Swish swish!!”

"Raise the right wing three degrees!" Zhao Xuan stared at the fluid dynamics model on the monitor screen. "Pay attention to the turbulence in the eighth sector!" Before he finished speaking, three electromagnetic nets surrounded him from different angles.

"Caw!!" The Steel-Armored Raven crossed its wings to protect its head, its steel feathers vibrating at a high frequency, and actually smashed through the electric net.

The swirling electric currents leaped among the metal feathers, being guided to the tail to form a stream of azure ions.

"Buzz!! Buzz!!"

Meanwhile, thunder rumbled from the training grounds of the Leccats. A black and blue lion raced across a moving platform, creating sonic booms, its body crackling with arcs of electricity.

"Crack!! Crack!!"

Twenty alloy targets flashed randomly at a frequency of five times per second, and each time a lightning bolt hit the bullseye, an electronic firework would explode in the air.

"Hit rate 78%..." Upon hearing this announcement, Zhao Xuan glanced at the data screen and then said, "Switch to S-shaped trajectory mode."

"Boom!" Suddenly, wave-shaped magnetic tracks rose up on the training ground. As soon as the Leccat's paws touched the metal surface, 100,000 volts spread along the tracks into an electric grid.

A stream of lightning flashed in Leccat's blue eyes, and it suddenly leaped into the air and flipped, the lightning ball it flung out splitting into seven branch-like lightning bolts in mid-air.

"Boom!"

Zhao Xuan looked at the Corviknight and Lucas, who had stabilized, then turned to Adolphin and said, "Adolphin! Prepare to receive the shockwave!"

"cocoa!!"

Upon receiving the command, Kodora raised its head and let out a battle roar. Its thick limbs unconsciously stomped in place, creating several cracks, and a metallic luster seeped from the gaps in its carapace.

"Boom!!" The ground suddenly cracked open, and twelve shockwave generators activated simultaneously. Visible shockwaves slammed into the steel armor like heavy hammers.

"Yes!!!" The shockwave made Kodora roar involuntarily.

"Hold on!" Zhao Xuan said, watching the defense coefficient reading soar.

"Adjust the energy resonance frequency to 145 Hz!" Kodora suddenly stood up and slammed its front paws heavily onto the ground.

The moment the shockwave made contact with the steel armor, it created ripples like water. The curve representing physical resistance on the monitoring screen began to climb exponentially.

After dealing with Kodora, Zhao Xuan turned his attention to the last remaining Poison Baby.

When Poison Baby saw Zhao Xuan looking at it, the little guy shouted defiantly, "Poison Poison!!"

Looking at the fiercely competitive Poison Baby, Zhao Xuan smiled and said, "Poison Baby, this is the device you'll be using."

Poison Baby glanced at the large training pod on the side and flew straight in without hesitation.

Seeing this, Zhao Xuan pressed the knob in his hand.

"Click~~" The training pod slowly closed.

The training pod for Poison Baby was filled with purple mist. The little guy hung upside down on the gravity generator, its tail needle dripping viscous venom.

As the thirteenth titanium alloy target rose, it suddenly curled into a ball, and its tail needle sprayed out spiral-shaped venom arrows like a machine gun.

"Whoosh whoosh!!!"

The target that was hit first bubbled up, then melted like ice cream under the scorching sun.

"463 toxicity purity 87%!" the machine announced. "Corrosion rate increased by 200% compared to last week!" Zhao Xuan grabbed the record board and quickly wrote: "Suggest increasing the proportion of neurotoxin; next time try mixing in paralyzing powder..."

As time slowly passed.

Sweat dripped from Zhao Xuan's chin onto the control panel. The monitor simultaneously displayed four constantly updating data streams: the Steelraven's feather temperature exceeded 800°C, the Lurker's neural reaction speed reached 0.02 seconds, Kodora's carapace density tripled, and Baby's venom pH dropped to -1.3. The training ground was filled with the acrid smell of ozone and burning metal, the cacophony of alarms and skill activations creating a symphony.

"Five minutes left!" Zhao Xuan pressed the ultimate mode of the holographic projection. The training grounds of the four Pokémon suddenly merged, and countless virtual enemies surged in from all directions.

Steel Crow unleashed a steel storm that cleared the sky, while Luxcat's electric net wove into a cage on the ground. Kodora transformed into a silver chariot, crushing the enemies in front of it, while Babydoll darted through the gaps in the battlefield like a purple ghost.

As the countdown reached zero, Zhao Xuan finally smiled when he saw the notification that his overall score had broken through to S level.

Four wounded elves gathered around him, and he stroked their burning bodies one by one, feeling a vibrant life force pulsating from his fingertips.
