Everyone else is a trainer, but you are a swordsman?

"Yueyue Bear, you are already very impressive."

Feng stroked its belly along its fur and spoke gently.

"Ouch~"

Yueyue Bear hummed in response.

Lao Sha came over and smiled appreciatively, "It's indeed not weak. This Moon Bear's fighting skills are quite outstanding."

This brief exchange gave Lao Sha a clearer understanding of Yueyue Xiong's strength, but he also discovered his shortcomings.

"But your Moon Bear doesn't seem to have a deep understanding of ground-based attacks and only uses skill attacks."

"You know, powerful ground-type Pokémon can not only sense the situation on the surface and underground through the ground, but can also move quickly underground."

Feng seemed to be thinking about it, "Just like the rhinoceros digging a hole just now?"

Lao Sha nodded. "Yes, given the weight and size of the Diamondhorn Rhino, it moves very slowly on the ground and can't even reach the enemy."

"But it's different underground. Breaking through rock and soil is easy for a rhinoceros. It's like swimming in the mud. A rhinoceros underground is like a bird in the sky."

Crocodile spoke eloquently, and it was obvious that with his many years of experience as a trainer, he was very familiar with the ground-type system in which he specialized.

"Any slight fluctuation in the ground can be sensed. After that, we can determine the position and launch an attack. If the attack is unsuccessful, we can continue to sneak into the ground."

"What if the opponent uses earthquake?" Feng asked curiously.

Earthquakes cause double damage to Pokémon underground, making them their absolute nemesis. How do ground-type trainers like Crocodile deal with them?

Lao Sha did not directly answer Feng's question, but instead asked: "Do you know the principle of the earthquake skill?"

"The propagation of ground energy?" Feng said uncertainly.

"That's right. To be precise, it's about transferring the ground-type energy from the Pokémon's body underground, then drawing on the power of the earth to attack." Crook pointed downwards and asked another question: "What would happen if two Water Gun skills collided in mid-air?"

"They will cancel each other out. If one side is stronger, it will prevail." Feng replied.

"The same goes for Ground-type energy. As long as you manage it well, underground Pokémon can use Ground-type skills to block some of the damage from Earthquake. However, since Earthquake is a diffuse area attack, it can't completely negate it, so they'll still take some damage."

Lao Sha stroked the slightly cracked armor on the diamond-horn rhinoceros with gentle movements, as if he was treating an old friend.

Feng understood that the Rhinoceros was not completely unaffected by the Earthquake skill, but its understanding of ground-based skills had mostly neutralized the effect. In addition, its extremely high defense prevented it from being killed instantly by the Moon Bear.

"Can my Moon Bear also learn this move? And what you just said about moving quickly underground and sensing the ground situation?"

"Haha, I'm very optimistic about it, but it may take some time..." Lao Sha narrowed his eyes and showed a smile like an old fox.

The reason why he told Feng that he did this was to retain this client. It was not an easy task to learn his skills. If one had poor qualifications, it might take several months.

It can be seen from the fact that this kid has a Lunar New Year Pokémon that he is not short of money. The money for milk powder for raising his next Pokémon will all come from him.

……

After finishing a day of training, Feng returned to his room at the Elf Center and lay on the bed thinking about his future plans.

Finding a sparring partner who can share his experience is indeed a pleasant surprise, but money is also flowing out.

Given Lunar's aptitude and learning speed, Feng estimated it would take at least a week for him to fully master it, which would cost him approximately one million Alliance Coins. Other Pokémon like Gyarados, Uzumaki, and Kapok also needed sparring partners to impart experience and improve their combat effectiveness.

And this is just the elite-level sparring partner. In the future, the gym owner level and even the quasi-king level will be more expensive but the guidance effect will definitely be better.

"First, train Yueyuexiong well. If he can successfully enroll in school later, I'll see if the teachers there can pass on some of their experience."

Feng pondered and said, "Also, according to the news I heard before, the black market will open in three days. I have to save some money to see if there are any good things in it."

Thinking about it this way, I might not have enough money to spend again. I have to find a way to make money in the future. For example, doing alliance missions is not a good option. Although the risk is small, the income is also very low, which is not enough to cover my expenses.

I don't know what opportunities there are in the black market, so if nothing else works, I can only take the risk and rob the gang members.

……

The next morning, Feng planned to go to the club again and find Lao Sha to train Yueyue Bear.

At this moment, the communication bracelet lit up and someone called. The caller's name was Tina.

Feng answered the phone, and Teacher Tina's gentle voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hello, is this Feng?"

"It's me, Teacher Tina."

"First of all, congratulations on passing the school's registration review. As long as you pay the tuition, you will be a member of our school from today."

It seems that the school teachers have already checked with the owner of Donggua Pavilion, so I will be able to enroll smoothly in another month.

"Thank you, teacher. Do I need to go back to the registration office to pay the fee?" Feng asked.

"If you have time, please come over. We also need to customize a school uniform for you, and then give you a student card, school rules, a school-assigned computer, and some textbooks." Teacher Tina could be heard packing up, as if she was preparing a big gift package for Feng to go to school.

"Okay, teacher. I'll be there right away."

It seems that I don’t have time to go to the club this morning. I will pay the fee first and get my things. I can also ask about the situation at school.

After a while, Feng came to the school registration office which was converted from a Western-style house. After waiting for a while, he met Teacher Tina, who took Feng to a meeting room.

The subsequent process is to pay the money, measure the size, sign the agreement, and receive the new student gift package. The school uniform will be sent to the Elf Center where Feng is in a few days.

Feng also asked Teacher Tina some questions, such as the teaching staff, school curriculum, etc.

The information obtained is that the school has teachers specializing in all attributes, there are several quasi-king-level teachers, and even king-level teachers who occasionally come to teach.

In terms of course arrangement, first-year students mainly take courses such as Pokémon general knowledge class, Pokémon battle class, Pokémon training class, wilderness survival class, and trainer fighting class, which cover all aspects of knowledge required by trainers.

But it does not include the most important knowledge - how trainers can make money.

Feng also looked at the signed agreement carefully and did not find any loopholes that would be detrimental to him. The agreement only required students to abide by school rules, obey school arrangements, and not do anything that violates the law.

Student cards have many uses, such as serving as dormitory keys, renting books from the school library, using the school training room, etc.

The computer they were given was primarily used to connect to the school's intranet. It provided access to uploaded league match videos, student training experiences, and other resources, as well as student forums and campus news releases.

Feng put these away and said goodbye to Teacher Tina.
