Pokémon: Back to high school, I became a Pokémon master

Inside the accommodation area of ​​the Intercontinental League.

Xia Yuchen had just woken up when he saw the message Zhou Wenchao had sent him.

"Damn it! Take me with you! Don't go alone!"

Xia Yuchen's message seemed to sink without a trace, and he received no reply from the other side for a long time.

"I rely on it!"

He angrily threw his phone onto the bed!

"Dong Dong Dong~"

There was another knock on the door.

"Stop knocking, I'm not home. I already said I'm not home, don't bother me!"

Thinking about how people had been coming to see Zhou Wenchao for the past two days, even disturbing his sleep, and considering the message Zhou Wenchao had just left, he was furious.

"Brother Xia, it's me, Xiao Yuan." Jiang Yuan's voice came through.

.......

When Zhou Wenchao opened his eyes again, he found himself in a volcanic area.

The fire-attribute energy in the surrounding air was exceptionally strong, and several active volcanoes could be seen in the distance, seemingly harboring terrifying destructive energy!

"Chicken, come out!"

"Chamo!"

As soon as the chick appeared, it sensed the rich aura of fire element around it.

A few hours later.

They came to a pool of fire.

The Fire Pool is located in a low-lying area, surrounded by volcanoes, with a statue standing at its very center.

The True Dragon, Lashiram!

"Chamo! Chamo!"

The chicks squawked excitedly the moment they saw the fire pit in front of them.

(Old Zhou, Old Zhou, these flames are powerful, I want to absorb them.)

"Are you sure it's okay, little chick?"

Zhou Wenchao frowned. He possessed several special abilities, allowing him to feel the intense heat emanating from a great distance.

In this situation, ordinary people cannot get close at all within several miles, not even elves of slightly lower level.

The chick actually wanted to jump right in and absorb the nutrients.

"Chamo! Chamo!"

(Old Zhou, it's okay, you have to trust me!)

Zhou Wenchao glanced at the statue of Lashiram directly in front of him. He believed that this was most likely Lashiram's former lair or the place where he broke through, and the fire pool contained a portion of the energy he left behind.

These energies were probably at least at the god-level in the past, and after so many years, their power is still so strong.

"Chamo!"

"Okay, Chick, be careful when you go down. If you can't hold on, come out. Your safety is the most important thing."

Besides, now that we know where this place is, we can come back often in the future, without paying an irreparable price for short-term gains—it would be a losing proposition.

"Chamo!"

(Okay, Lao Zhou. I'm going downstairs now!)

"Plop~"

After the chick finished speaking, it plunged in and was completely submerged in flames!

"Hoohoo!"

"Chicken!"

As soon as the Blaziken leaped into the fire pit, flames surged towards it from all sides, and the Blaziken was instantly engulfed in flames!

"Chamo!"

(I'm fine!)

"Rotom, start timing now. Observe and record all the chick's data, vital signs, and the intensity and density of the flame energy in the fire pit!"

Zhou Wenchao watched as the chick was bathed in flames, looking pained but not as if it couldn't accept it, so he began to give Rotom instructions.

"Yes, Master! Loto!"

Rotom has been with Zhou Wenchao for quite some time now, and it is extremely familiar with Zhou Wenchao and each of the Pokémon. It updates the status of each Pokémon, its height, weight, and so on, every day.

The food, tastes, and preferences were all meticulously recorded, and Zhou Wenchao arranged each stage of the special training plan in a very organized manner. Zhou Wenchao only needed to list a reasonable framework and points to note.

Rotom can automatically plan things out and implement them down to every detail, which Zhou Wenchao then examines and modifies. It can be said that, apart from Zhou Wenchao, only Rotom truly understands them.

To ensure a more accurate record of their status, Zhou Wenchao pleaded with Xia Yuhe several times, getting her to upgrade Rotom twice.

The tools Rotom used—training templates, satellite templates, network templates, information databases, and so on—were all top state secrets, inaccessible to the average person.

There's a lot more to this than meets the eye; it involves things that can't be solved with just strength. Xia Yuhe didn't say much, and Zhou Wenchao didn't ask any more questions.

......

"Rotom, give me a report."

"Loto, timer 27 minutes, Blaziken status: good; vital signs: good; physical attributes: slightly improved; fire energy: high! Note that the fire energy has exceeded the peak limit. The energy in the fire pool is still extremely violent."

"Continue testing."

The flame energy has exceeded its peak, which means that the chick has made a breakthrough in terms of flames, which is a good thing.

......

"report!"

"Loto, timer 58 minutes, Blaziken status: fatigued; vital signs: good; physical attributes: slightly improved; fire energy: continuously breaking through the limit..."

"Continue testing."

.........

"report!"

"Loto, timer 1 hour 40 minutes, Blaziken status: Poor; Vital signs: Unstable; Physical attributes: Slightly improved; Flame energy: Continuously exceeding the limit..."

Blaziken's physical condition has been detected as unwell. It is recommended to immediately stop training and wait until it recovers before resuming training.

"Chicken! Can you still hear me?! If you can, say something!" Zhou Wenchao shouted loudly into the room.

"Chamo!"

(It's okay! We're only at that point, and I feel like I'm about to break through!)

Hearing the chick's voice, Zhou Wenchao breathed a sigh of relief. However, there was only a shadow of fire in the fire pit, and he couldn't see the chick's appearance at all.

Zhou Wenchao moved his somewhat withered lips and said, "Continue the testing."

......

"Rotom, reporting!"

"Loto, timer 2 hours 58 minutes, Blaziken status: poor; vital signs: poor; physical condition: no effective testing methods; fire energy: energy is beginning to shrink, current status unknown..."

"The energy has contracted? Doesn't that mean these flames are no longer a threat to the chicks? What's going on with this unclear situation?!" Zhou Wenchao was somewhat puzzled and a little angry.

"Loto! Master, we've detected that the energy within the fire pool isn't stabilizing; instead, it's becoming even more violent and converging towards the Blaziken!"

"What the hell? Didn't you just say that the flame energy on the chick's body started to shrink?!" Zhou Wenchao stopped speaking immediately after he finished speaking. He had been a little flustered and hadn't thought things through carefully.

The start of energy recovery does not signify the end of training; there is another process: energy compression.

"Loto, based on the existing data analysis, the contraction of the flame energy inside Blaziken is more like a form of energy compression. It's about compressing, purifying, and refining the flame energy until it undergoes a transformation."

What stage are we at now?

"Master, we are currently in the early stages of compression."

“This is a good thing. As long as we take it slowly, I believe Chicken can succeed. Rotom, estimate how long it will take at Chicken’s current pace, so we can make a plan. After the competition, we’ll bring Chicken here to train for a long time.”

"Loto~~Master~~~"

Rotom called out somewhat timidly.

"what happened?"

"Blazing Chicken's state doesn't seem like it's compressing flames, but rather contracting them. It's compressing and purifying the flames within its own body, which means it can't be interrupted. At the current pace, it'll probably take about 48 hours, Loto~"

What will happen if it's interrupted?

Given the chick's condition, let alone 48 hours, it might not even last 8 hours.

"It depends on the situation, Loto! Because there are no such attempts in the database, and even if there were, there's no record of them."

According to the data model, considering the compressed energy within the body, a massive explosion of energy could cause anything from minor injuries to serious ones. Larger amounts of energy could damage the foundation of one's cultivation, preventing further progress and even threatening life.

Rotom floated in front of Zhou Wenchao, displaying a basic theoretical model that Rotom had just created using data. In the scene, the Blaziken's internal energy exploded, blasting the Blaziken to pieces.

"Damn it!" He cursed as he watched the Blaziken explode into pieces on the screen. "Rotom, analyze the energy level inside the Blaziken and determine a reasonable threshold. Be prepared to interrupt it at any time."

The power of Tokiwa emanating from his body began to surge. "Chick, can you still hear me?"
