Pokémon: Master System.

The Staff-tailed Armored Dragon nodded in agreement, then reached out and gently patted Xia Yu's shoulder, as if to say, "It's all because of you guys; you almost broke Xia Yu's bones."

"Teach them some moves while you're at it, like Dragon Star Formation. That shouldn't be too difficult for you."

…………

While the Pokémon were outside training, Xia Yu didn't rush to tidy up the house. He first boiled some water, made a cup of honey water, and brought it to Teacher Long.

"Teacher Long, come and have some honey water." Xia Yu walked to Teacher Long's bedside and called out twice.

"Hmm?" Long Yanning murmured, responding in a daze. She then slowly propped herself up to sit up, but her hand slipped and she almost fell. Fortunately, Xia Yu caught her in time, preventing her from falling off the bed.

It felt slightly warm to the touch, and the skin was smooth and tender. However, the smell of alcohol on the body was a bit strong, which made Xia Yu frown and not have any evil thoughts.

"Drink some honey water."

"Mmm." Leaning against Xia Yu, Long Yan Ning appeared exceptionally obedient, her voice soft and sweet, making Xia Yu's heart race. Then, Long Yan Ning picked up the honey water and drank it all in one gulp.

Such an obedient teacher is a rare sight indeed. Xia Yu secretly made up her mind that from today onwards, whenever she wanted to open her Douyin account, she would show off two ounces of baijiu (Chinese liquor) to improve her alcohol tolerance, starting now.

After Teacher Long finished drinking the honey water, Xia Yu put her back on the bed and then began cleaning and tidying up. She also picked up Teacher Long's clothes that she had thrown on the floor and put them in the washing machine. Finally, as Xia Yu looked at the personal items in the bathroom, she fell into deep thought: to wash them or not to wash them—that was the question.

…………

After working for four or five hours, Xia Yu finally cleaned the house thoroughly. She also went downstairs to the supermarket to buy some vegetables, rice, and a pack of cigarettes.

The food was naturally for cooking dinner, and the pack of cigarettes was for the gatekeeper.

"Sir, here's a pack of cigarettes for you."

"Thanks." The old man, who had just received a pack of good cigarettes, smiled, revealing his yellow teeth. The more Xia Yu looked at the young man, the more pleasing he became. Looking at the vegetables Xia Yu had bought, he guessed that the young man was probably going to spend the night here.

He's really bold. He used to stay out overnight, knowing to avoid Long Tianwang. Now that he knows Long Tianwang is on a mission, he actually came to the teachers' dormitory to stay overnight. But why does this kid look so much like Xia Yu, the young scientist in the recent news, who is Long Tianwang's disciple?

It seems that's true. No wonder the Dragon King wanted to take him as a disciple; so that's what happened. This kid is dishonest; he learned skills and then stole his master's daughter.

…………

Back at Teacher Long's villa, Xia Yu first cooked the porridge and stir-fried the vegetables, then put them in the warmer to keep them warm. After glancing at Teacher Long, who was still fast asleep, Xia Yu went to the training ground next door to check on how his Pokémon training was going.

In the training area, the forest lizard was seen running closely behind the staff-tailed armored dragon, its body covered in fine beads of sweat as it ran under heavy loads.

"Roar!" The Staff-tailed Armored Dragon roared, then stopped in its tracks and punched the training steel stake with a flash of lightning—it was the Thunder Fist technique!

The forest lizard following closely behind the Kommo-o-Tai also imitated the Kommo-o-Tai's movements, throwing a punch with a faint crackling of electricity emanating from its fist. Although not obvious, it was real.

"Huh?" Xia Yu rubbed his eyes, wondering if he was seeing things. Was that lightning fist? When did the forest lizard learn lightning fist? Did it learn it in just three hours of training?

Xia Yu quickly used the system to check the Forest Lizard's skill bar and sure enough, he saw the words "Lightning Fist"!

Xia Yu was overjoyed. Although Thunder Punch is a physical move, Forest Lizard is a dual-wielding Pokémon, and Thunder Punch is a perfect counter to Flying-type Pokémon.

"What a wonderful dragon!" Xia Yu couldn't help but praise in his heart. "You are truly a wonderful dragon! Not only can you open doors, but you can also teach me the Thunder Fist. Having you is my blessing!"

Xia Yu then turned his gaze to the other side, where he saw Charmander and Nombat working together to chase Noivern. With such a large difference in strength between the two sides, Noivern was completely suppressing its strength to act as a sparring partner. It was dodging the whole time and did not fight back at all, while Nombat and Charmander were constantly chasing.

The buzzing bat was alright; it could fly and barely keep up. But the short-legged little fire dragon couldn't fly and could only run constantly while casting spells, leaving it panting heavily. This reminded Xia Yu of a certain mythical beast.

"Roar!"

Noivern stopped and landed on the ground. When Charmander and Nombat arrived, it opened its mouth and suddenly exhaled a scorching breath, covering a large area in front of it.

"Hot air!"

Charmander and Nombat tried to imitate him, attempting to use the Hot Air skill, but unfortunately, they failed after several attempts. After five or six tries, Charmander opened his mouth and exhaled a hot breath.

"what?"

Chapter 111 Evolve! Charizard

Xia Yu looked at the panels of Charmander and Nombat. The words "Heat Wave" did not appear in the skill bar, which meant that they had not fully learned it. This made Xia Yu slightly disappointed, but he thought about it and felt relieved. The Heat Wave skill is a top-tier fire-type skill. Even if they have high aptitude, they cannot learn it so quickly. However, as long as they persist in training, Xia Yu believed that they would learn it sooner or later.

Who would have thought? Teacher Long's Pokémon are a treasure trove! They can even teach skills. It seems I'll have to visit Teacher Long more often in the future.

"Charmander, Nombat, you two continue training with Noivern." After Xia Yu finished speaking, he walked towards Dragapult.

Doronmesia still looks as cute as ever. Before evolving, its appearance didn't change much, but in the past few days, it has grown quite a bit and is growing very fast. At the same time, its tail has become more and more transparent.

"Drow Ranger!" Xia Yu called out, and saw the shimmering Doryo Mesia fly over, moving as fast as a ghost: "Come and eat some Energy Cubes."

Xia Yu took out a Dragon-type Energy Cube and fed it to Doronmesia. The smell of the Energy Cube made Doronmesia quite excited.

Because of the Ghost-type core energy of the Judgment Bottle, Dragapult grows extremely fast and has a huge appetite. The amount of food it eats is almost equivalent to the total of the other three Pokémon, and it needs to eat every once in a while.

"Eat it, then continue training. Come on, Doron, let's practice your flight speed first." Xia Yu said to Doron Mesia, instructing it to practice its flight speed: "Fly to the first steel pillar on the other side, then circle back."

Upon hearing Xia Yu's command, Doromisia flew directly from Xia Yu's hand like a dragon arrow, then circled the steel pillar and returned to Xia Yu's hand. This back-and-forth flight training not only increases physical movement speed but also improves reaction speed.

"Continue, practice repeatedly."

The dragon is known for its speed, so Xia Yu naturally wants to keep exploring its speed talent.

Among all non-legendary (Ultra Beast) Pokémon in the game, Dragapult ranks fourth in speed with 142. Only Ninjazuchi (160 speed), Electrode (150 speed, official translation), and Agility (145 speed) are faster than Dragapult.

Even including Mega Evolution, only Mega Beedrill (145 Speed), Mega Alakazam (150 Speed), Mega Aerodactyl (150 Speed), and Mega Sceptile (145 Speed) are faster than Dragapult.

Although the speed in the game is just a reference, Dragapult is also extremely fast in reality. As a Dragon/Ghost-type Pokémon, Dragapult is different from other Dragon-type Pokémon. The stronger Dragapult is, the larger its size is, but the lighter its weight is. At the same time, its body is more transparent, and its speed is faster.

In the wild Dragapult population, the faster the Dragapult, the more popular it is. In short, Dragapult is a Pokémon that pursues speed, and the more transparent it is, the stronger it is.

Xia Yu accompanied Doron Mesia to train its flight speed, and also took this rare opportunity to strengthen the bond between the two.

…………

Nine o'clock at night.

Long Yanning, who had slept for several hours, was extremely thirsty and woke up from her sleep in a daze.

"Hmm." Rubbing her groggy head, Long Yanning slowly sat up from the bed, and suddenly she felt that something was wrong.

When did my house become so clean and tidy? Today isn't the day the cleaning lady comes to visit.

Moreover, someone had placed a thermos on the bedside table. When Long Yan Ning opened the thermos, she found it contained warm, sweet honey water.

Long Yanning was a little dazed. Was this still her own room? Was she still dreaming? Who made her honey water?

She glanced at the clean trash can beside the bed and the new trash bag, her mind went blank, and she was clearly unable to process what she was seeing.

"what happened?"

Long Yanning instinctively touched her clothes; they were still there, the same outfit as yesterday. She visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

She stared in disbelief at the spotless wooden floor, then opened the wardrobe. Inside, clothes were neatly folded, and dresses of various styles were hung in order of color.

Confused.

Long Yan Ning rubbed her head, feeling dizzy. She began to recall what happened after she drank alcohol. It seemed that someone entered her room while she was sleeping, and she vaguely remembered someone holding her and feeding her a cup of honey water, but the memory was quite blurry, and she wasn't sure.

Long Yanning took a sip of the honey water from her thermos and sat on the edge of the bed, lost in thought.

A thief broke into the house? Impossible! With Noivern and Kommo-o at home, how could a thief have broken in?

By the way, what about the Staff-tailed Armored Dragon and the others?

Long Yanning quickly put on her slippers and walked out of the bedroom. The living room was still clean and tidy, the robot vacuum cleaner on the floor was working continuously, and a faint aroma came from the kitchen, but there was no sign of the other Pokémon.

Approaching the kitchen, Long Yanning was even more bewildered by the fresh food in the warming cabinet. Just then, she suddenly heard a familiar voice coming from outside the window!

"Go, Charmander!"

"Go, Buzzbat!"

Xia Yu?!

Inside the training ground, Charmander was battling Nombat again. Both were old rivals and knew each other's moves well. They exchanged blows, and the fight was evenly matched.

Long Yanning walked to the window, intending to check on the training ground, when she noticed the clothes drying on the balcony. They were clearly washed that afternoon and were hanging there. She had already guessed what had happened, and a strange feeling welled up inside her.

But when her gaze fell on that patch of black lace intimate clothing in the corner of the balcony, her face flushed red at a visible speed, and she rushed to the toilet at the speed of light.

When she looked at the empty laundry basket, Long Yanning's legs went weak and she almost fell to the ground.

It's over, it's over.

She covered her face and walked back to the dining room, where she sat in a chair, lost in thought, her face flushed.

It wasn't until a dazzling white light came in from outside the window that Long Yan Ning's reverie was interrupted.

Is this evolution?

She didn't care about anything else and went to the balcony to look out the window. Xia Yu's shiny Charmander had evolved into Charmeleon. With its golden appearance, sharp eyes, and flames burning on its tail, it looked at the Buzzbat in the air with a fighting spirit. If Charmander used to give people the feeling of ferocity, then Charmeleon now gave people the feeling of ruthlessness.

After evolving, Charmeleon's strength increased significantly, and Nombat, which originally had the upper hand due to its flight advantage, was now completely at a disadvantage.

Charmeleon has been enhanced in terms of strength, speed, the speed at which it can unleash its skills, and the power of its skills.

"Dragon Wave!"

With a Dragon Pulse, a powerful shockwave of dragon-type energy flew toward the Nombat.

However, after several days of extreme evasion training, even when completely suppressed, the Buzzbat's evasion ability was still top-notch. The Charmeleon, which was under heavy fire, failed to land a single hit with its skills.

"Alright, that's enough for today. It's a draw." Xia Yu ended the match at the right time. Neither side could gain the upper hand, so it could only be considered a draw for the time being.
