Elf: Starting as the Fighting Gym Master, and being entangled by Nancy.

Chapter 497 Ye Ci's Recruitment, Nemo's Gratitude, and the Search for Information Related to Hoopa!
"Servant, shout!"

As soon as General Pudao appeared, his aura surged several notches.

It waved at Gallade and gave a wicked smile.

Special Feature: General, trigger!
At the same time, Ye Ci took out the Tai Crystal Pearl and activated the Tai Crystal Power inside!

Huhuhu~
A strong wind swept through, blowing Ye Ci's hair.

But Ci Wei remained unmoved and simply threw the Taijing Bead at the head of the Servant General with one hand!
Click!

A crystalline mist enveloped General Servant Blade, completely covering him and leaving a thin crystalline film on his body.

Above General Pudao's head, a balloon-like crystal appeared.

Taijing Flight!

Gallade, proceed with caution.

Li Xuan could only warn Gallade to be careful, lest it be defeated by the Servant General.

“Ailu…”

Gallade nodded slightly, sheathed her sword, and stood still.

"Brother! Let's fight!"

As the crystallization process ended, General Servant Blade let out an angry roar.

Ye Ci raised his hand, clenching his fist tightly: "General of the Servants' Blade, Iron Head!"

Sonorous!

With a flash of silver light, the sharp blade on the head of the Servant General was instantly covered with a steel scab. It headed straight for Gallade, and the aura it exuded was not to be underestimated!
"Gallade, dodge to the side, then counter with a Triple Spin Kick!"

When it came to close-quarters combat, Li Xuan actually breathed a sigh of relief.

I might not be very good at remote work.

But in one-on-one close combat, that's when he's in his comfort zone.

As the Serpent General attacked, Gallade dodged its headbutt by sidestepping it.

Immediately afterwards, its green thighs gleamed coldly, and the first kick struck General Servant's side abdomen directly. Then, it spun around and delivered the second kick!

The force was so great that it forced General Pudao to his knees on the training ground!
"Don't be greedy for the third move, just use teleportation to dodge it!"

Seeing that General Pudao was about to kowtow, Li Xuan had Gallade use "Teleport" to create a momentary absence.

"Elu!"

Upon hearing this, Gallade immediately canceled its third kick, its psychic powers enveloping its entire body, and vanished from the spot as the General of the Servants kowtowed!

Bang! ! !

A giant blade shot out from the sky, sending sand and stones flying and breaking vegetation.

The training ground in front of the Servant Blade General was cleaved in two, but it failed to hit Gallade.

A Dark-type Servant Sword!

The Servant's Blade is a guaranteed hit, but it will fail to activate if the target is not on the field.

Seeing that the attack failed to land, Ye Ci was not annoyed, but only showed a faint smile: "Not bad, not bad. To be able to judge the move used by General Ye Ci in time, Mr. Li Xuan, you are definitely not an ordinary trainer. I am very curious why there is no information about you circulating on the Internet."

Li Xuan demonstrated remarkable experience in the battle.

Trainers from any region are never unknown.

Ye Ci had seen information about elite trainers from many regions and had even sent out invitations to them.

However, no information about Li Xuan has been found yet.

Therefore, Ye Ci became curious about Li Xuan's background.

This is the trainer that Orin personally called to ask her to arrange tasks for.

How could it be such an unknown person?
"I'm not a person who likes to be in the public eye."

Li Xuan replied without blushing.

Ye Ci nodded slightly.

She knew Li Xuan didn't want to tell her this, so she didn't ask any further questions. Instead, she focused her attention on the field: "General of the Servants' Blades, Shadow Claw!"

"Servant, shout!"

The Servant General charged towards Gallade, its arm emitting a ghostly light as it suddenly unleashed a claw-like energy strike, which Gallade managed to dodge in time.

"Thunder Fist!"

With a flash of golden light, Gallade immediately punched the Servant of the Blade, and countless arcs of electricity drilled into it, even shattering several pieces of the Servant of the Blade's Flying Crystal.

Seeing this, Ye Ci immediately responded, "General Pu Dao, seize it and unleash your Iron Head!"

Despite the pain, the Servant Blade General gripped Gallade tightly with both arms, his head emitting a silver glow, and rammed into Gallade's abdomen!
Clang!

Gallade flew back several meters, and saw the Servant of the Blade kowtow again. A powerful Dark-type blade suddenly slashed out, giving Gallade almost no chance to react!
Gallade was not in good shape after taking two hits in a row. Moreover, because it was facing the General of the Blades who had triggered the "Admiral" ability, it had many injuries of different sizes on its body.

Right now.

The pink mist on the field dissipated.

The site has been restored to its original state.

Li Xuan already had a plan in mind and was just waiting for General Pudao's attack.

He met Ye Ci's gaze, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

Ye Ci's expression remained unchanged, and he gave the order almost simultaneously with Li Xuan.

"Raid!"

"Hypnosis!"

The bet was right!
General Servant wants to find a weakness in Gallade.

But Gallade didn't use any offensive moves at all.

The red protrusion on its chest emitted pink waves that entered General Servant's eyes, making him drowsy and causing him to close his eyes on the spot.

Gallade seized the opportunity to use "Teleport" to flash behind the Blademaster and unleashed a series of moves such as "Thunder Punch" and "Ice Punch", which directly reduced the Blademaster's Primal Crystal to just a tuft of balloons on its head.

But General Pudao remained asleep.

The outcome of the battle is now clear.

"I lost this battle."

Ye Ci put away his servant sword and stepped forward while clapping, smiling slightly: "Mr. Li Xuan, do you have any thoughts about becoming the champion of the Padia region?"

"A champion-level trainer?"

Li Xuan knew that the Padia region had the concept of "Champion Trainer," and his first reaction was that Ye Ci wanted him to accept this honor.

"Not a champion-level trainer, but a champion trainer from the Padia region."

Ye Ci maintained her smile.

"Wow! Mr. Li Xuan was actually invited by Ye Ci to be the champion of the Padiya region?! That's amazing!"

Nemo, watching from the sidelines, was stunned.

There aren't many trainers who get invited by Yaji himself!

Unexpectedly, after Li Xuan had just fought a match with Ye Ci, he was invited to become the champion of the Padiya region!
This is a very high honor!

This means they're now on the same level as champion trainers from other regions!
It was a true sharing of the stage!
"Hiss... So that's what Ye Ci was planning... He really can't lose money no matter what..."

Aoki then realized what was happening.

Regardless of winning or losing, as long as we can successfully recruit Li Xuan, it will be a huge profit.

Li Xuan lost, so let Li Xuan do the work for me.

Since Li Xuan won, Ye Ci readily invited Li Xuan to become the champion of the Padiya region.

Yeci is currently the president of the Padia League, the champion, and the chairman of the Orange Academy League.

If we can hand over the championship title to Li Xuan, then we can get him to do the work much better afterward.

Moreover, with so many people watching, Li Xuan is probably quite young and not very thick-skinned.

They might just agree right away.

Wow!
Ye Ci, that move of yours was truly divine!
Aoki sighed inwardly at how meticulous Yoshi's mind was, that he had even thought of this step.

"Chairman Ye Ci, a true man should have ambitions beyond his hometown, so please forgive me for declining."

Li Xuan smiled and waved his hand: "I am a person who travels all over the world and rarely stays in one place."

“Alright, then my invitation still stands. If you, Mr. Li Xuan, are ever interested in becoming the Pardia champion, please feel free to contact me.”

Ye Ci instead handed over a business card: "Then I won't bother you any longer. Send me your card number later, and I'll transfer the money to you."

"Um... can I pay in cash?"

Li Xuan gave an awkward smile.

He doesn't have a bank card here.

They didn't even have an ID card. So, they had to pay for things with cash.

Otherwise, it would be truly impossible to move an inch.

"no problem."

Ye Ci didn't ask any further questions, but instead had someone prepare cash: "Because there's too much money, you might need to come to the office tomorrow to collect it."

Li Xuan nodded: "Okay, thank you for your trouble, Chairman Ci."

"No trouble, this is what I should do."

After speaking, Ye Ci sheathed his servant sword and left the training ground.

The onlookers dispersed.

The referee, Hachisaku, was so excited he was almost crying: "It was such a thrilling battle! It was less than two hours, but it felt like it lasted for almost three days!"

"Mr. Li Xuan, how did you train them?"

When asked this question...

Li Xuan scratched his head.

hiss……

How to answer?
You can't just say you can level up by sleeping, right?

Obviously, that's impossible.

Li Xuan pondered for a moment and said thoughtfully, "We must raise Pokémon with love. I have always firmly believed that as long as we give enough love, we will definitely be rewarded."

"I never expected Mr. Li Xuan to be such a pure person!"

Hachisaku was moved to tears by Li Xuan's speech. He took out a handkerchief to wipe away his tears and sobbed, "This is the first time I have met a trainer as pure as you. I couldn't help but shed tears. Please forgive me, Mr. Li Xuan."

"Nothing."

Li Xuan didn't think it was a big deal.

It's normal for someone like Hachisaku to have low tear production, as he tends to shed more tears.

It is precisely because of this that Hachisaku became a sentimental person.

Although there wasn't much of a storyline involving Hachisaku in the game, Li Xuan still had a pretty good impression of him from the time they spent together.

is a good man.

"Mr. Li Xuan! What if we start battling after you've finished treating the Pokémon?"

Nemo then came closer.

She really couldn't wait to start a relationship with Li Xuanta.

To be recognized by Ye Ci!

That must be an extremely powerful trainer!

"no problem."

After all, he had promised Nemo, and besides, he was indeed short of money.

Therefore, Li Xuan will not break his promise.

"That's wonderful! Thank you, Mr. Li Xuan! You're so kind, sir. I almost felt like I hadn't offered you the right price..."

Nemo thought about it again and realized that a champion-level trainer like Li Xuan must have a high appearance fee for a single battle.

Paying Li Xuan 200,000 yuan for two hours of "leveling" seems like a bit of an insult to Li Xuan...

How about we increase it to 500,000?

"It's alright, this price is good."

Li Xuan didn't care about any of that.

As long as I can save enough money for the trip, that's fine.

If you travel by bus every day, you should be able to save enough money within two weeks.

When that time comes, I'll have to switch maps and wander around to other places to find information about the Time-Space Twin Dragons.

"Really... But I feel like Mr. Li Xuan, you're being too kind, but it's still a bit unfair."

Nemo may be a battle fanatic, but she has a high EQ.

She felt that Li Xuan's words were meant to comfort her.

Ok……

What can I do for Li Xuan?

"How about this, could you help me find information about a Pokémon named Hoopa?"

Li Xuan had originally planned to have Nemo inquire about the Time-Space Twin Dragons.

But these two are hidden too well; it's not certain that we can find any relevant information.

Hoopa is different.

In the theatrical version, this guy lives in the desert city of the Carlos region.

The Carlos region is separated from the Padia region by only one mountain. It's just a matter of crossing the mountain from the Padia region to reach the Carlos region. Given the size of Nemo's family, finding Hoopa should be quite easy for them.

With that in mind, Li Xuan told Nimo about the rumors about Hupa in Desert City.

"Okay! I'll go ask my family to help me find out about Huba!"

Seeing that she had made a difference, Nemo perked up completely.

"Then I'll go to the Pokémon Center to treat my Pokémon."

After saying that, Li Xuan wanted to leave.

"No need to go to the Pokémon Center, let's go to the infirmary. Mimosa has medical equipment there."

Just as Nemo was about to leave, she reminded Li Xuan that he didn't need to go that far.

"it is good."

Li Xuan couldn't go too far, so he listened to Nemo and went to the infirmary to find Mimosa to treat his Pokémon.

"If you're looking for the infirmary, please follow me."

Hachisaku took the initiative to lead the way, taking Li Xuan to the infirmary.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Mr. Hachisaku."

Li Xuan followed behind Ba Shuo.

About ten minutes later, we arrived at the door of the infirmary.

dong dong dong...

"coming."

The door to the infirmary opened, and a woman wearing a white coat, a yellow sweater underneath, and a pinkish-purple midi skirt walked out.

Hachisaku explained his purpose to the woman in front of him: "Ms. Mimosa, this is Mr. Li Xuan. We've come to borrow your medical equipment to treat our Pokémon."

"Okay, come with me."

Mimosa gestured for the two to come inside.

"Thank you for your help, Miss Mimosa."

Li Xuan handed the Poké Ball to Mimosa.

"You're welcome. It's what I should do as a school doctor."

Mimosha smiled gently, placed the Poké Ball on the medical equipment, and pressed the button.

While waiting, she brought a stool for the two of them and started chatting: "This gentleman looks unfamiliar, and he was brought here by Mr. Hachisaku. Is he a new teacher?"

"No, I just came here to work, I'll probably leave in a while."

Li Xuan laughed awkwardly.

I estimate that I will be leaving within a month.

I can't stay too long, or what if I don't want to leave?
“Mr. Li Xuan is a trainer recognized by Chairman Ye Ci. It’s a pity he doesn’t want to stay and work in Padiya. Otherwise, I think we would get along very well as colleagues.”

Disappointment was evident in Hachisaku's eyes.

These words surprised Mimosa slightly: "Wow! Is Mr. Li Xuan a champion-level trainer?"

Li Xuan said modestly, "More or less, I could barely put up a fight against President Ye Ci."

Just as Mimosa was about to say something more.

dong dong dong...

There was another knock on the door of the infirmary.

"Ms. Mimosa, I've come to get my medicine."
