Elf: No, it's because he was made the gym leader!

Lu Yuan's words warmed Ah Hong's heart like the warm sun in spring.

Ah Hong's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief. He stammered, "Really...really?"

"Of course, the purpose of gyms is to help young trainers grow and improve. Gym badges are not only obtained by challengers defeating gym leaders."

Essentially, this place is more like an assessment venue to test the overall strength of trainers, and I, as the gym leader, am the examiner here.

In some cases, if the dojo itself is too strong, the dojo master may go easy on the challenger to allow more challengers to pass the test smoothly.

However, some museum owners are unwilling to go easy on you, but as long as you get their approval, you can still get a badge.

"And today, although you didn't defeat me, you performed exceptionally well in every aspect, including battle strategy, Pokémon training, and the resilience you displayed in the face of setbacks."

Hear the words.

The four-colored youths couldn't sit still any longer.

"And what about us? Why didn't you make that clear before?"

"Emm...I forgot."

In fact, if Officer Jenny hadn't reminded him in the group chat that if he couldn't send out the badges, his year-end bonus would be canceled, he wouldn't have even thought about it.

"forget?"

Upon hearing this, the blond youth's eyes widened, and he roared incredulously, "Do you know how much effort we put in to get this badge!"

"You think you can just brush us off with a 'I forgot'? Don't stop me, I want to fight him in person!"

The anger that had been building up for days finally erupted at this moment.

"Cheese egg, see the guests out."

"lucky~"

The Chansey that emerged from the Poké Ball let out a sweet meow.

Then he quickly stepped forward, opened his arms, and easily hugged the four youths in red, yellow, blue, and green.

"Put us down! Put us down!"

The four-colored youth struggled and shouted loudly.

Chansey remained unmoved, still holding them firmly, and strode towards the gym entrance.

"I need to report this to the league. I need to report this to the league."

The blond-haired youth shouted angrily.

But the only response he received was a loud bang; the dojo doors slammed shut, completely shutting them out.

"Phew..." Lu Yuan let out a long sigh of relief, saying as if a great weight had been lifted from his shoulders, "It's much quieter now."

After saying that, Lu Yuan turned to look at A Hong: "By the way, let me look for your badge."

Lu Yuan reached into his left pocket.

No.

He then reached into his right pocket.

still none.

"Emm...where could it be?"

He couldn't help but mutter to himself with some doubt.

Wait, what does my badge look like again?

I don't think I've ever seen this before!

But soon, his eyes lit up again.

Old Deng must have some in his warehouse.

Immediately afterward, Lu Yuan tossed a sentence to Ah Hong and ran towards the warehouse in the backyard.

Ah Hong, who remained where he was, stared blankly at Lu Yuanyuan's departing figure and nodded.

"......it is good."

The backyard, the old Deng warehouse.

"Golden spray, no."

“A huge golden bead, no.”

"No, it's not a bicycle."

Why are there so many useless things? Badges, badges, where are you? Come out now.

Hey, I found it.

Lu Yuan took out a dusty iron box from the shelf in the corner. It had the Wutong Badge written on it and looked quite old.

Open the tin box.

There were only two things inside: a series of metal badges and a grayish-white feather.

Although the feathers look tattered, you can still vaguely tell that it was once extremely gorgeous.

The badge next to it looks like it was made to resemble this feather.

Red, orange, yellow, green, cyan... the iron badges were covered with colorful paints, making them look like a rainbow.

rainbow?

Lu Yuan glanced at the feather again, seemingly unsure.

I glanced at the badge again.

emm......

Isn't that the Rainbow Feather?!

Chapter 59 The Legend of the Phoenix King

Rainbow feather?

Ho-Oh is shedding feathers again?

It might be fake...

[Ding! Item Rainbow Feather detected.]

[Quest: Rainbow Trial (To be triggered)]

it is true!

But why is it pending triggering?

It is said that only trainers as pure and upright as the sky can gain Ho-Oh's approval.

Where am I not pure enough? Where am I not upright enough?

That big-mouthed sparrow has so many fuss-ups. If I use Rock Slide, won't you explode?

"Jie Jie Jie."

Gastly, standing to the side, chuckled as it took the feather from Lu Yuan's hand.

The originally grayish-white feathers suddenly emitted a rainbow of colors.

???

Lu Yuan retrieved the feather, and the rainbow light disappeared once more.

Return the feather to Gastly, and a rainbow light will appear.

Take the feather back, and the rainbow light disappears.

Give it to Gastly, and light it up.

Take it back, then destroy it.

Bright.

destroy.

Bright.

destroy.

......

Hey, I don't believe it.

Lu Yuan had Gastly and he each hold one side.

Now let's see what you do...

The side that Gastly grabbed lit up, while the side that Lu Yuan held dimmed.

Hey!
