Elf: How do you cultivate immortality in the elf world?

Chapter 168 Son of the Jungle.

Upon hearing this, Yao Yifei instantly became interested, and then looked at the herbs in front of him with interest, "Is this the elf's secret treasure?"

"No, this is the main ingredient of the beauty potion." Lu Li replied.

"Is that so?" Yao Yifei seemed lost in thought. She didn't ask for the beauty potion, but instead inquired, "Is this potion effective for elves that don't rely on beauty to evolve?"

"It's useful, and the effect is significant." Lu Li nodded.

Yao Yifei begged, "Can you sell me a few?"

This thing is just the icing on the cake for her. If Lu Li is unwilling, he will not force it, but will lower his evaluation of Lu Li in his heart.

Lu Li didn't know what Yao Yifei was thinking. This was the compensation method he had come up with, so he naturally wouldn't refuse.

"No problem, but I have to wait until after my college entrance examination. I'm busy recently." Lu Li explained.

Yao Yifei nodded. She didn't need this thing very urgently, and she was very happy that Lu Li agreed to it.

…………

Qingyun City.

Leng Qianqiu, who returned in a mess, almost thought that he had not been back to the real world for several years.

First, the Kyushu Alliance showed signs of independence, then the legendary Ho-Oh appeared, and now I hear that the gym groups in each city can form a Pokémon army.

Leng Qianqiu was completely shocked by the news.

"Is it so crazy? Isn't the alliance afraid that the power of the gym leaders will completely get out of control by doing this?" Leng Qianqiu couldn't help but whisper in his heart.

For these family forces, the gym leader is actually the opponent of the family.

The reason is very simple. Those gym groups are equivalent to local forces, and the gym masters in most cities are emerging forces that have only emerged in the past hundred years.

For the old families, the rise of these emerging forces is bound to snatch their interests.

A sign of troubled times.

These four words suddenly flashed through Leng Qianqiu's mind.

"If troubled times are about to come, Ryan...will you be the one to end them?" Leng Qianqiu whispered.

Ryan is his good friend, the young master of the electric attribute family, one of the eighteen major attribute families.

Moreover, Ryan has an even more terrifying identity, that is, the reserve ideal messenger. Although Ryan is a few years younger than him and weaker than him, Leng Qianqiu has always regarded the other party as a person of the same level.

Leng Qianqiu sighed, realizing that he couldn't stay here for long.

"It seems that I am destined to have no chance of getting that egg."

After feeling sorry for a while, Leng Qianqiu said to the head of the Jin family opposite him: "My promise is still valid, as long as you can help me find the egg."

"Is Young Master Leng preparing to leave Qingyun City?" the head of the Jin family asked hurriedly.

Leng Qianqiu nodded and said, "I have to break through the gym level quickly, so I can't stay here."

The head of the Jin family understood very well.

For trainers like them, there is very little real free time. Leng Qianqiu has been delayed here for almost a week. The other party is currently in a stage of rapid growth, and wasting a week here is already the limit.

After Leng Qianqiu said goodbye to the head of the Jin family, he left Qingyun City with Pidgeot.

"Do you think the young master of the Leng family is in such a hurry to go back, is it really to break through to the gym level?" The head of the Jin family suddenly looked up at the corridor on the second floor and said.

Yu Zhonggang sneered, "That's pretty close, but the reason he's so anxious to break through to the gym level is probably because of the Elf Legion."

Leng Qianqiu was interested in establishing an elf legion, or rather, the entire Leng family was interested in this matter.

Relaxing restrictions on gym owners and allowing them to establish Pokémon armies is not only beneficial to civilian trainers, but also to family trainers. The benefits are quite large, otherwise this policy would not have been passed.

A civilian gym leader can only build a small elf army at most. A large elf army is not something a civilian gym leader can afford.

The head of the Jin family consoled him, "Even if the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. We just need to take care of our little piece of land in Qingyun City."

Yu Zhonggang nodded as a matter of course. Although he also came from a common family, he had now achieved class transition.

The former commoners have become the current aristocratic families.

"An elf army composed of 500 elite steel snakes will be the foundation of my Yu family." Yu Zhonggang thought excitedly in his heart.

Given the current situation, anyone with a little insight knows that troubled times are about to come, an opportunity for a new reshuffle, and an opportunity to become a prominent family.

For a gym leader like Yu Zhonggang who came from a common family, this was a huge gamble.

The Jin family's patriarch suddenly changed the subject and reminded meaningfully, "How is that young man Lu Li? He doesn't have much time left to grow."

"Look at his performance in the college entrance examination. Now he is being targeted by the eldest daughter of Ekaterina's family. His future is no longer something we can decide." Yu Zhonggang said with some regret.

He really admired Lu Li and was even willing to give Mr. Lu a chance to become a son-in-law. It was a pity that such a talent was pushed into the hands of someone else by his wife.

"A genius who cannot grow is worthless. The brighter the comet, the faster it falls." The head of the Jin family reminded.

Jin Fengjiao is his sister-in-law, so of course he chose to stand on Jin Fengjiao's side in this matter.

Yu Zhonggang just smiled bitterly and didn't talk much about this matter.

After a moment, the Jin family's patriarch reminded calmly, "Clean up Qingyun City. The higher-ups are also watching your abilities."

"what do you mean……"

Yu Zhonggang looked at the head of the Jin family with some doubt.

"A spy from Qingyun City went to Nandu City to assassinate Lu Li, but failed. The Fairy King personally ordered us to clean up Qingyun City." The head of the Jin family said helplessly.

This is a completely unexpected disaster for them. Now in the entire Asian Alliance, which first-tier city does not have spies?
If it were that easy to clean up, there wouldn't be so many spies in the Asian Alliance.

"Well, I know what to do."

Yu Zhonggang nodded.

Since the higher-ups have spoken, no matter how much they disagree, they have to pretend to do so, at least to save face for the higher-ups.

Lu Li, who had no idea that he had dealt a devastating blow to Qingyun City's gray industry, was now on his way to Nandu City.

Considering that there was a game at ten o'clock tomorrow morning, Lu Li set out on the journey back to Nandu City after dinner.

With Yao Yifei, a gym-level trainer, Lu Li doesn't have to worry about being killed on the road.

After returning to the hotel, Lu Li specially spent money to book a room next door for Yao Yifei.

Yao Yifei originally wanted to stay in another hotel, but since Lu Li was like this, Yao Yifei had no choice but to stay.

Yao Yifei also knew the reason why Lu Li did this, which was simply because he was worried that someone would assassinate him again.

"Don't worry, you shouldn't be in any danger before the finals." Yao Yifei comforted him earnestly.

"As the saying goes, it's better to be safe than sorry. What if those assassins do the opposite?" Lu Li asked.

Yao Yifei: "..." Yao Yifei rolled his eyes at Lu Li speechlessly, "Okay, I'll be honest. I just got news that assassins from various regions have infiltrated the eastern region. Their target should be that high-profile reserve ideal envoy."

Lu Li was not surprised, this was all within his expectations.

It's normal for the new trainer named Ryan to be targeted now that he is so high-profile.

After returning to his room, Lu Li began to meditate and practice.

Lu Li no longer dares to sleep in these hotels, so he usually practices instead of sleeping.

The next morning, Lu Li went to the Pokémon Center.

Since it was the top ten competition, there were more reporters interviewing today, so Lu Li secretly hid in the crowd and entered the Elf Center.

Lu Li thought that once he got to the lounge, he could avoid being disturbed by the reporters.

But Lu Li was obviously too naive and didn't even understand what politics was.

The official news reporter from Nandu City personally brought a photographer to find him in the lounge.

Looking at the reporter in front of him, Lu Li's eyes flashed with helplessness.

That was one of the reasons why he didn't want to compete.

"Hello, classmate Lu Li."

The reporter holding the microphone greeted politely.

Although he felt a little unhappy, Lu Li still nodded with a smile.

"I'm a reporter from Southern Metropolis Television. I'd like to interview you before the game. Are you available?"

Land from:"……"

Lu Li wanted to say that he was busy, but he still nodded reluctantly.

"I heard you're an ordinary trainer from a third-tier city?"

"Yes."

This reporter was somewhat polite, at least he didn't say anything about civilian trainers.

For an ordinary trainer, this is already very subtle.

The reporter then asked, "So, how did you get to where you are today? Coming from a humble background, do you have anything you want to say to the audience?"

Lu Li also felt that the reporter in front of him was probably not looking for headlines, but when he thought about it, it made sense. After all, he was a reporter from the official TV station. What he wanted was political correctness, not breaking news.

"Work hard! Work hard with your feet on the ground. You may not believe it, but I don't even sleep more than 4 hours a day.

It is precisely because of this that I was able to meet my current partner and become who I am today." Lu Li said seriously.

He meditated and practiced every day, and didn't even sleep for an hour. In terms of hard work, Lu Li felt that he was definitely working hard enough.

The reporter pretended to be surprised and asked, "Oh my God! Are you working so hard? Don't you have any entertainment activities in your daily life?"

Lu Li smiled and said, "My greatest entertainment activity is training with elves. I really can't understand what in the world is more joyful than accompanying my elf companions to become stronger little by little."

"I heard that in addition to your excellent performance as a trainer, you have also achieved remarkable success in other professions?" the reporter asked.

"Not really. Although many people say that I have reached the level of a junior cultivator, the fact is that I don't even dare to apply for the exam now." Lu Li replied.

The reporter quickly asked, "You mean you're not even at the primary level of cultivation yet?"

Lu Li nodded: "In fact, I am not a junior breeder. I don't even have a junior breeder certificate."

Lu Li wanted to make his talent less dazzling, just like the talent of a cultivator. It was enough for him to know it, and it would be bad if too many people knew it.

The reporter nodded with satisfaction. Lu Li's answers were all very positive. He was humble and hardworking, and he spoke very gently.

"Are you confident about this competition?" the reporter asked again.

"Of course I do! I absolutely believe in the bond between me and my friends."

Lu Li's mouth was full of words like "bonds" and "partners", but as an experienced reporter, he knew that these were the words that both the superiors and the subordinates wanted to hear.

The interview ended quickly, mainly because Lu Li was cooperative enough and the reporter in charge of the interview did not deliberately find fault.

After sending the reporters away, Lu Li let out a long sigh. This time the reporters were much more polite than last time.

More than ten minutes later, as the announcer's voice sounded from the loudspeaker, Lu Li entered the competition channel.

This time the opponent is a poison-type trainer, and the opponent's initial Pokémon has also entered the second stage of evolution.

After arriving at the competition field, Lu Li squinted his eyes and looked at the purple-haired boy opposite him.

The purple-haired boy is called Gib, a son of the jungle.

The so-called Sons of the Jungle are ethnic minorities who were born and raised in the mountains.

They often have their own secret realms and unique methods of cultivating elves. Children of the jungle are generally good at grass, poison and insect types.

Gib specializes in poison.

"Come out! Nidorino!"

A mouse-like elf with a purple body, dark purple spots, and horns on its forehead appeared on the field.

Nidorino is the evolved form of Nidoran. Judging from its color and size, this Nidorino actually has the strength of a late-stage normal level.

"This elf doesn't look like it has only been cultivated for two months." Lu Li thought with a frown.

However, considering that the other party came from a village deep in the jungle, where the laws of the alliance were not allowed to govern, it was normal for them to cultivate elves in advance.

What Lu Li cared about was not the other party's strength, but the meaning behind it.

Normally, it should be impossible for Gibb to match him.

The matching mechanism of the college entrance examination competition follows a certain pattern. According to the matching mechanism of the league's college entrance examination competition, Gib's opponent should be a rookie trainer from a noble family.

Because strictly speaking, Gib, like him, cannot be considered to be from aristocratic families, and the only two people in the top ten who do not have aristocratic family background are him and this trainer named Gib.

Gibb took the initiative to speak: "To be honest, you are the only opponent I don't have the confidence to defeat. I didn't expect to meet you so soon."

There was a hint of depression and bitterness in Gibb's tone. Only the top five teams in the regional competition were eligible to participate in the league competition.

If Gib loses two games in a row, he will lose the qualification to participate in the league competition, which means that Gib will not only miss the reward, but he will not even be able to enter Kyushu Alliance University.

Lu Li noticed that Gib seemed completely unaware that he was being targeted. Lu Li, who had a favorable impression of the young man, smiled and encouraged him, "You can't do that. As an opponent, I think you should fight me with the determination to win."

"This is a respect for me and your partner, what do you think?" Lu Li said as he released the tropical dragon.

Originally he wanted to release Charmander, but for an opponent like Gib, Lu Li was willing to give him the greatest respect, which was to do his best within the rules!

After finishing the conversation, Yu Zhonggang returned to the dojo, and then he made some phone calls and started doing some superficial work.
