Pokémon: The Zen Trainer

I was just in a bad mood, and you came right to my door!

Bian Xiang and Gastly exchanged a smile.

"Go, Gastly!"

"Chie!"

.....

"Duoduo?"

What's wrong? Is it not working?

Marshall looked at Gastly, who was panting heavily.

Even though Gastly evolved, it was still overwhelmed by Marshadow.

Moreover, without the help of the cursed rune, they were basically suppressed throughout the entire process.

However, its performance is still much better than when it was Gastly; last time, it was forced to self-destruct with its fourth move.

This time it will take at least six moves.

While watching the field, I thought, "That's about right."

"Marshado, aren't you a trial spirit?"

So, will you accept my trial challenge?

"Duoduo?"

Marcia looked on with her orange-yellow eyes, lost in thought.

"The trial content is..."

"I will challenge you again in seven days."

"And in seven days, Gastly and I will definitely last longer than we do now."

Marshall nodded, standing still.

"I accept your challenge. I'll be waiting for you in seven days."

Bian Xiang waved goodbye to Marcia.

"Then I'll be going now, Master."

.....

I looked around and wanted to get into the elevator.

Marcia clenched her fist.

Then he ran to the tree fruit he was thinking about.

There are significantly more tree fruits inside than yesterday.

And there were seven letters inside!

From Standard One to Standard Seven.

"Duoduo~"

Seeing these things inexplicably improved Marcia's mood.

It grabbed the envelope, took a spicy fruit, and ran to the railing.

Just like yesterday, she watched and ate at the same time, her two short legs dangling.

Seven days, right? I'm looking forward to your challenge.

.....

Master Guang Sheng looked at Marshall's back and then at the elevator.

This guy has something.

.....

The next day, I sat on the bus, watching the scenery outside the window rush by.

Chunye Middle School is located in the east of the city.

The Flying-type gym is located in the northwest.

Besides Bian Xiang and Shi Shouxin, the other members who went to participate in the intensive training this time were also present.

There are also three other school team members: Matsumura, Horita, and Asami.

There were two men and one woman, but no supervising teacher, only a life skills teacher. Leading the group meant thinking about how to lead them.

The main purpose of doing this was to establish Bian Xiang's leadership position in the school team.

Let the other students get used to directing while thinking.

This will facilitate command in future five-on-five team battles.

While looking at the table, which contained data on the other three school team members, he thought about it.

Matsumura, Horita, and Asami all have Flying-type Pokémon.

Bobo, Doudouge, Xiaoduer.

In terms of data, it's quite impressive among students in the regular combat class.

However, it falls short; it would be a bit of a stretch for them to represent Haruno High School in battle.

All three Pokémon have reached the standard for evolution in all aspects.

But it was just one step away from being successful; it just wouldn't go in.

Stuck at the crossroads of evolution.

Evolution is the manifestation of the bond between trainers and Pokémon.

The data for these three Pokémon is correct.

So the problem lies with the trainers.

He turned his head to look at the three people sitting far away from him.

As she turned her head, she met the gazes of the three people.

It seems that the three of them have been observing and thinking all along.

Bian Xiang smiled at the three of them.

They looked away as if they had seen some terrifying monster.

Hmm...it seems like there's a pretty big problem.

Chapter 44 Shock in the Spring Wilds

"Alright, students, we've arrived."

"I'm talking to a building that looks like a tall tower outside the bus," said Mr. Yazawa.

"As your life skills teacher, there are a few things I must tell you beforehand."

"First of all, our Haruno Middle School and Kikyo Gym have a close relationship. Many of our alumni are graduates of Haruno Middle School, so please be as polite as possible when you see strangers."

"Secondly, I am only responsible for your daily life. If you have a conflict with others in Kikyo Gym, please try to resolve it yourself. If you cannot resolve it, please find the leader and think of your classmates."

"Third, the school has already made arrangements for the seven-day intensive training. You can contact the staff at Kikyo Dojo directly."

"Alright, that's all. Get off the bus. Good luck. I need to get off first to coordinate with the dojo staff. Good luck everyone. Oh, by the way, the previous batch of students from your school team didn't leave a very good impression on Kikyo Dojo. If you really can't keep going, you can apply to withdraw early."

Ms. Yazawa looked at the five people on the bus, made a heart shape with her hands, and left.

The five people left in the bus looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Ugh, what's wrong with this teacher?"

Shi Shouxin sat on the side, thinking, and said with some dissatisfaction.

"Brother Xiang, what do we do next?"

The three members of the school team also looked towards the side.

He glanced at the school team members on the school bus and gave them a polite smile.

Ask me? I have a headache, I want to give up, maybe we should all go back and lie down for seven days before going back to school?

Thinking about this, I was actually a little tempted. After considering it carefully, I realized there was room for action. Wouldn't it be better to go back and rest for seven days?

Pokémon evolution is already lagging behind anyway, so another seven days won't make much difference. What if they evolve after a short rest?

And staying here doesn't necessarily mean you'll evolve, right?

Getting first place in the region isn't easy, so there's no rush in these seven days. Let's rest and recharge before making a final push.

Anyway, I've already asked my master for leave, so I'm definitely going to lie down for seven days!

Seven days off is such a precious gift for a senior high school student! Although I wish I could skip it often, skipping seven days is just too much.

Moreover, judging from Mr. Yazawa's tone, Kikyo Dojo has a rather bad impression of the students at Haruno Middle School. Instead of staying here and suffering, why not go back and lie down for seven days?
