Pokemon: How Are You Cultivating Immortality in the Pokemon World?

Chapter 25: Eternal Pain – Can't Fly!

The Darumaka trainer was a spirited young man with dyed yellow hair.

As soon as Lu Li entered the arena, the yellow-haired guy sneered, "Number one in Qingfeng City, I heard you're a big deal!"

Lu Li: "If I may be so bold, are you cosplaying as a gangster?

Feeling his authority as the 'big boss' of First High challenged, the yellow-haired guy angrily shouted, "You dare to pretend you don't know me? Darumaka, go! Bite his Tropius to death!"

Lu Li: "..."

Lu Li could swear to the heavens that he really didn't know this hoodlum in front of him.

The yellow-haired guy yelled, "Darumaka, Leer!"

"Tropius, Growth, then fly up," Lu Li commanded simply.

"You raise attack, I raise attack, but my Tropius can fly, can your Darumaka?" Lu Li sneered inwardly.

Seeing Tropius fly into the sky, the yellow-haired guy mocked, "My Darumaka isn't trash like Eevee."

"Darumaka, use Ember to knock it down!"

Lu Li also gave his command, "Tropius, dodge, then Magical Leaf."

Ember isn't a skill that automatically chases enemies, but Magical Leaf is.

Tropius dodged Ember in the air while releasing Magical Leaf.

The yellow-haired guy hurriedly shouted, "Darumaka, quickly dodge too!"

Hearing the command, Darumaka quickly avoided Tropius's Magical Leaf, but the Magical Leaf strangely turned its head and rushed towards Darumaka again.

The yellow-haired guy asked in surprise, "What skill is that? It even turns corners!"

Lu Li didn't answer the yellow-haired guy's question. Judging from his reaction, this unlucky kid was obviously the type who didn't study hard and didn't even recognize the Magical Leaf skill.

Lu Li continued to command, "Tropius, continue with Magical Leaf."

Magical Leaf is a Grass-type special attack. Although Grass-type attacks can't deal super effective damage to Darumaka, quantity can bring about qualitative change.

Lu Li didn't believe Darumaka could withstand multiple Magical Leafs.

Being kited, the yellow-haired guy angrily roared, "Damn it! If you have the guts, bring Tropius down here."

"The time isn't up to three minutes yet," Lu Li sneered.

Yellow-haired guy: "..."

Three minutes later.

Darumaka, who had been worn down to death by Magical Leaf, lost the match.

The originally arrogant yellow-haired guy was like a defeated rooster.

"Don't be smug, I'll get my revenge when my Darumaka evolves," the yellow-haired guy said harshly, then dejectedly recalled Darumaka and left the arena.

Jin Huang, who had returned to the stadium at some point, walked to Lu Li's side and exclaimed, "That was too easy, right? But Tropius actually learned Magical Leaf, how deep is your Tropius's movepool?"

So far, Lu Li's Tropius had revealed Headbutt, Sweet Scent, Growth, Magical Leaf, and Razor Leaf. This movepool was rare even among ordinary-level Pokémon.

Jin Huang didn't know that Tropius was already an ordinary-level Pokémon.

However, those official trainers saw Tropius's true strength at a glance.

Yu Zhonggang frowned and muttered, "Raising Tropius to the ordinary level in a week, are beginner breeders this outrageous?"

The principal next to him twitched slightly. Don't mention beginner breeders, even intermediate breeders couldn't be this outrageous.

"It seems this little genius has secrets," the principal thought, narrowing his eyes.

However, he didn't plan to investigate Lu Li's secrets. After all, the Pokémon world was so magical, it was normal for some unconventional things to happen occasionally.

Jin Cuilian next to Jin Huang also sighed, "Lu Li, I didn't expect the teacher to underestimate your talent. You're probably only missing a certificate to become a beginner breeder, right?"

Lu Li scratched his nose a little embarrassedly, then nodded shyly.

If he wasn't afraid of shocking the world, Lu Li felt that he could even take the advanced breeder certificate.

The master-level Immortal Cultivation Arts were somewhat unsuitable for this world, but there were still some similarities between the two. Whether it was in breeding, planting, or item crafting, Lu Li felt that all he lacked was knowledge accumulation.

"During the finals later, both of you perform well, especially you Lu Li, you must compete wonderfully and show your style," Jin Cuilian earnestly exhorted.

Reminded again, Lu Li nodded, then curiously asked, "Teacher, is some big shot from the Education Bureau visiting our school?"

Jin Cuilian shook her head meaningfully.

"It's not from the Education Bureau. I can only say that that person's status is higher than the director of the Education Bureau," Jin Cuilian said.

"Alright, this is a surprise the school is giving you, I can't reveal it now. As for the surprise, you'll know when the time comes," Jin Cuilian waved her hand, then turned and left.

Not far away, Dou Guomin waited for Jin Cuilian to come to his side, then sighed in a leisurely tone, "What good luck!"

Jin Cuilian said modestly, "This is thanks to the help of all my colleagues."

"No! Even with our help, if your son wasn't up to par, this matter wouldn't have been possible," Dou Guomin shook his head.

Jin Cuilian's son had been favored by the Gym Leader of Qingyun City. If it was before, they would have just been amazed, but now, they were filled with envy.

You must know that Gym Leader Yu had previously advanced to become an Elite Four trainer, and that Elite Four Pokémon was Bastiodon. Jin Huang, who owned a Aron, became Gym Leader Yu's disciple, then his future achievements would at least be at the Gym Leader level.

For ordinary people, trainers and ordinary people are the watershed.

For trainers, Gym Trainers and ordinary trainers are the watershed.

Only by becoming a Gym Trainer can you truly be considered a truly accomplished trainer. Gym Trainers are the backbone of the Asian League.

"I originally thought my life would be like this, but I didn't expect to have a son who lived up to expectations. Although I often say he's not as good as Lu Li, he's actually quite excellent!" Jin Cuilian looked at Jin Huang, who was chatting and laughing with Lu Li in the distance, with a loving expression.

Dou Guomin said, "Oppressive education is not good."

Jin Cuilian retorted, "My using Lu Li to suppress Jin Huang can't be called oppressive education."

Was Lu Li an ordinary person?

A 16-year-old beginner breeder, don't mention Jin Huang, even the direct descendants of those aristocratic families are not as good as Lu Li.

If Jin Huang only had one-tenth of Lu Li's ability, then she, as a mother, would be able to laugh in her dreams.

In fact, this was indeed the case. Although Jin Huang couldn't compare to Lu Li, he had also reached the point where she could laugh in her dreams.

As time passed, the final decisive moment was also coming.

Everything was as Lu Li had predicted. The semi-final contenders were him and Jin Huang, and that Ekans trainer.

Jin Huang looked at the announced semi-final list and said, "You really guessed it, that Ekans trainer is indeed very strong."

"But unfortunately, you seem to be facing him first," Jin Huang said gloatingly.

"It doesn't matter, my Tropius just needs some pressure," Lu Li smiled casually.

Although Tropius was doubly weak to Ekans, Ekans couldn't fly!
