บท 409: Chapter 396 Dragon Type Fairy... Eevee Seizes Power!_1
"It's a shame... the Thunder Armor for the Fierce Fire Monkey is still imperfect," Fang Yuan shook his head.
The only solution Fang Yuan could think of was to use the Thunder Armor to cope with the Blaze Chicken that had developed its acceleration ability to a considerable level.
Moreover, this speed battle must be resolved quickly.
The longer the battle dragged on, the less favorable it was for the Fierce Fire Monkey.
However, Fang Yuan had no idea how effective the partially developed Thunder Armor would be for the Fierce Fire Monkey when facing the opponent.
From what he observed in the previous matches, his opponents also had not gone all out.
This is difficult...
The majority of the 32 players who have been decided are of professional level Trainers...
Fang Yuan was already prepared for the Fierce Fire Monkey to take hits.
All sorts of medicine, Energy Blocks, and healing measures were ready.
In the following dozen or so matches, Fang Yuan saw quite a few familiar faces.
Apprentice Wang Dali from the Qin Yuan Dojo, during the advancement from 128 to 64, was either unlucky or fortunate to face a fellow school sister, with the fortunate aspect being that one of them was sure to advance… However, in the advancement from 64 to 32, the advancing Wang Dali unfortunately encountered a Professional Trainer and was brutally defeated.
Fang Yuan also watched Senior Feng Yin's match. True to the name of the head of the Wind Fist Flow, his fighting style was not only incredibly fast, but the power of his moves was also very strong; his spinning kick was so powerful that it shattered the platform, which could withstand Professional-level battles while attacking the enemy.
In addition to that, there were many other strong contenders.
Apart from a Trainer who was jokingly referred to by the audience as a quasi-master, who scored the highest points in the preliminaries and easily dealt with opponents with his Machamp, there was also another hot favorite to win the championship.
That person came with a Kommo-o, a Pokemon whose potential was no less than Dragonite, Tyranitar, or Huge Gold Monster, possessing terrifying strength.
If Fang Yuan continued to win, after two more matches, he would encounter this person...
But right now, Fang Yuan no longer had the luxury to consider that far ahead. The tough battle ahead was already challenging enough.
...
In the afternoon, the battle for the top 32 concluded, and the list of competitors was announced.
Fang Yuan, as the biggest dark horse of this Fighting Tournament, made it into the top 32, standing amongst the ranks of Professional Trainers, yet he relied on merely a Fierce Fire Monkey.
This not only stunned all the competitors and the audience but also slightly inflated the ego of the Fierce Fire Monkey.
Reviewing the battles Fang Yuan had participated in, everyone realized that he was extremely cautious, refusing to engage in direct combat and doing whatever it took to gain an advantage...
As a result, Fang Yuan was not regarded favorably.
"The strength of that Fierce Fire Monkey is at most just that, and even if it can enter the Fierce Fire State at any time, it's only powerful in terms of strength. To contend with Professional Trainers is still somewhat forced," commented one of the audience members.
"To have come this far with a Fierce Fire Monkey is already quite remarkable. However, Zhou Jiakai's Blaze Chicken is different from the previous opponents. Even if the Fierce Fire Monkey evolves, it's probably powerless to turn the tide," said a Trainer who had brought Heracle Cros and was eliminated by the Blaze Chicken in the previous match while expressing his opinion in front of the reporters.
Many people had one or two comments to make about Fang Yuan.
As one of the few dark horses, Fang Yuan naturally became the subject of discussion once more.
Of course, Fang Yuan did not intend to be cautious on purpose; it's just that the reward for making it to the top sixteen this time was something not to be missed if you could get it for free.
Besides the tool rewards, every competitor who entered the top sixteen could learn from a High-level Moves Secret provided by the organizers.
A High-level Moves Secret book was a considerable temptation even for Professional Trainers.
Moreover, it was a Strengthening Move type of Secret book.
The Bodybuilding Technique Secret Manual, this was the martial arts technique offered as a prize for this edition of the World's Number One Fighting Tournament.
In the previous editions, the Fighting Tournament offered a Cheat Book of Moves from Earth. Comparatively, the Bodybuilding Moves are obviously more attractive.
To be honest, both Fury and Thunder Armor were somewhat harmful to the body, and Fang Yuan didn't know if they would cause any hidden illnesses in the long run. Relying solely on nutritional supplements and medical measures for relief wasn't ideal—using bodybuilding as a regular training method for muscles might have a better neutralizing effect; that's what Fang Yuan thought.
"If we can successfully enter the top 16, the Bodybuilding Technique Secret Manual will be given to Fierce Fire Monkey to use. But besides the cheat book, there seems to be some high-age Unmelting Ice... I guess... only Milotic can use that," Fang Yuan said with a strange expression on his face.
The Fierce Fire Monkey, carefully and desperately fighting in battles, was going to have some of its reward taken away by Milotic... The monkey might become mentally unbalanced because of this, it seems I'll need to find some other way to compensate the Fierce Fire Monkey.
...
The competition ended today, with 24 hours of rest time.
The next match will almost entirely consist of fights against Professional level opponents, which are of significant importance. The organizers will need to spend more energy preparing for it, and there will also be other guests arriving.
This one day is a perfect opportunity for Fierce Fire Monkey to get reacquainted with the Lightning Armor again.
Originally... Fang Yuan planned to spend the day uneventfully.
However, the next day, School sister Xie Qingyi suddenly contacted Fang Yuan, giving him a surprise.
"I've finished reading your paper on the Life Orb. This paper... is quite good! You have a chance to get promoted to Official Researcher with it," she said.
Xie Qingyi, who had just come out of a secret location, didn't know what to feel as she typed out these words.
With the support of adventures, family, and school, it had taken her four years to become an Official Researcher.
This speed... can definitely be called Extreme Speed.
But Fang Yuan... in less than a year, like he's on drugs, has been rapidly rising through the ranks and is also about to be promoted to Official Researcher, which really bewilders Xie Qingyi.
What kind of monster did she bring to Mo Da...
"Really? That's great," Fang Yuan replied, filled with joy.
As an Official Researcher, he could apply for his own research institute. With a research institute, there were too many things to be done, and besides, the Key Stone would be within easy reach.
"Mm... Also... I've asked a friend to collect the Life Orbs from overseas, so you can just go ahead and publish your paper with peace of mind. I owe you a favor for this, and once you become an Official Researcher, I'll give you a gift," Xie Qingyi said.
Fang Yuan had contacted Xie Qingyi before publishing his paper precisely to have her collect the scattered Life Orbs. With many methods revealed to counteract the side effects of the Life Orb, this item would definitely become a top-tier Elf Tool. Stockpiling some in advance would have huge benefits, Fang Yuan wasn't able to consume all but could give them away as favors.
"A gift?"
At the sight of the word "gift," Fang Yuan blinked.
Though he was a millionaire, he was still very curious about what kind of gift a member of the Four Heavenly Kings would offer.
"Let me see, Yun Kai lost a bet to me before, and I won a chance to enter the Dragon Cave to tame a Dragon Type Fairy from him, how about I give that to you?"
Yun Kai, the Dragon King, from the Imperial Capital's Royal Dragon Clan, this Dragon Trainer lineage controlled a Dragon Cave, also known as the home of dragons, the sacred land of dragons. It was a paradise for Dragon Type Pokemons, containing some of the most talented and high-potential Pokemons in Hua Nation.
Although Xie Qingyi had won this opportunity, she herself had no intention of taming new Pokemons, so giving it to Fang Yuan, who was yet to tame six Pokemons, seemed like a good choice.
In Xie Qingyi's eyes, whether Fang Yuan tamed a Dragonite, a Violent Salamander, or a Garchomp... any would greatly boost his strength.
In fact, the word "Quasi-god" was also echoing in Fang Yuan's mind right now.
woca...
Before Fang Yuan could express his surprise, Xie Qingyi continued: "Then... I'll also give you an upgraded version of the Rotom phone. This is the latest research result from my team, not yet released to the public, and you can send me your preferences for size, color, and design ahead of time."
Rotom phone?
This is also a good item... definitely needed... Just as Fang Yuan was about to reply, he noticed a pair of big eyes staring at him.
Eevee had somehow also come over to the phone screen, and after seeing the words "Rotom phone," it looked at Fang Yuan seriously.
This, I want.
Fang Yuan: ?????
What does an Eevee need a Rotom phone for?????
That's meant for Trainers, Researchers!!!
