A water-type trainer who specializes in dragon-type water.

"Buzz buzz buzz~" The beetle Pokémon was none other than the Shovelthrush, one of Qi Shu's trump cards. The man and the Pokémon were approaching from afar, faster and faster!

"Hey hey hey ~ slow down!" Zhang Heng couldn't help but speak out to stop him, as he was also afraid of this reckless Qi Shu.

The shovel cannon bug rushed over like lightning, and when it was only a few inches away from Zhang Heng, it suddenly turned sideways.

The huge body brought with it a strong wind, causing Zhang Heng's cotton sofa in the air to shake violently, and he was almost overturned.

"Chirp~" The Qixi Bluebird used its flying energy to help Zhang Heng adjust his balance and prevent him from being flipped over.

Zhang Heng patted his chest with lingering fear. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Qi Shu's excited voice: "Brother Heng, long time no see! Are you impressed by my handsome appearance?"

Zhang Heng rolled his eyes at her and said unhappily, "What's so cool about you? You're such a reckless person! You almost knocked me down! If I'd been hurt, I'd see how you'd explain it to your master."

Qishu stuck out his tongue playfully and replied with a grin, "Hey, how could that be? I know what I'm doing. Look, it was a close call."

Zhang Heng frowned slightly and asked with a puzzled look on his face, "Come to think of it, why are you here instead of staying at your Bug-type gym? Isn't there anyone willing to challenge the Bug-type gym?"

Qishu's eyes rolled around, a cunning look flashed across her face, and she said, "Oh, there haven't been any strong challengers to the gym recently. I'm here this time with an important mission - to find the successor to the Bug-type Gym!" As she spoke, she puffed out her chest seriously.

Zhang Heng was also puzzled and said, "Didn't you just become the Bug-type Gym Leader last year? What's the point of looking for a successor? What's the point?"

The smile on Qi Shu's face faded a little, his expression became serious, and he spoke.

"Brother Xiao Heng, let me tell you the truth. Recently, there was an emergency with the Electric-type Gym Leader, and his main Pokémon unexpectedly died."

"After suffering such a severe blow, he no longer has the strength to continue serving as a Gym Leader. I have no choice but to retire early. The League is now preparing to launch a new round of Electric-type Gym Leader selection competitions."

Zhang Heng was slightly startled, his mind quickly digesting the news, and then he asked tentatively, "So... are you planning to resign as Bug-type Gym Leader and run for Electric-type Gym Leader?"

Qishu nodded vigorously, his eyes gleaming with determination, and said, "That's right! Think about it, my master is a top trainer who reached the top with Electric-type Pokémon. As his disciple, I can't just guard a Bug-type gym forever. I also want to carve out a place for myself in the Electric-type field."

Zhang Heng's lips curled up slightly, revealing a meaningful smile. He said, "That's true. The closed disciple of the East China Champion is only a Bug-type Gym Leader. From a certain perspective, it does seem a bit strange."

Changing the subject, he raised another question, "But then again, you didn't have the strength to compete for the Electric-type Gym Leader position before, so why do you think you have it in you now?"

The Gym Leader Selection Competition is a very important event in China, and it can be regarded as a key starting point for many trainers to embark on their careers.

Anyone who is a Chinese citizen is eligible to register for the competition. However, to become a gym leader of a certain attribute, there are clear and strict regulations: one must own three or more Pokémon of the corresponding attribute, and using King-level Pokémon is strictly prohibited.

Therefore, in the selection competition, the main forces in the battle are basically Pokémon of Quasi-King level and Gym level strength.

When Qi Shu heard this, his eyes lit up and he said excitedly, "Did you forget? My Electric Bug has successfully evolved into an Electric Spider! Its strength has increased significantly."

"Adding to that my existing Rotom and Shoveltorn, I now feel I have what it takes to compete for an Electric-type Gym Leader."

"Normally, the Gym Leader Competition is held every two years. This time, due to special circumstances, it's being held early. I absolutely cannot miss such a great opportunity."

Zhang Heng nodded thoughtfully, agreeing with Qi Shu's words, and then asked, "So, before you step down as the Insect-type Gym Leader, you want to recommend a trainee Gym Leader to take over your position?"

Qi Shu couldn't help but nodded and said, "Yes, although I'm stepping down, I can't just be a hands-off boss. The best thing to do is recommend an intern gym leader to smoothly handle the gym affairs and wait for the alliance's review. That would be a good ending, right?"

However, Qi Shu changed the subject and smiled playfully again: "Of course, there is another reason. Master asked me to protect you. You know, it's a mess out there, and Master is worried about your safety."

Zhang Heng shook his head helplessly, thinking that this girl was still so unreliable and her excuses were so random.

As he spoke, Qishu jumped lightly from the back of the shovel cannon beetle and landed steadily on the cotton sofa. He looked towards the arena with curious eyes and just saw the fight between the flower sea lion and the snow moth.

"Wow, this match is exciting! Brother Xiaoheng, tell me quickly, what's going on with these two Pokémon?"

As she spoke, she did not forget to fiddle with the two pink Magnemite headpieces on her head.

Zhang Heng had no choice but to tell Qishu everything that had happened in the previous match, from the skill showdown between the Ball Sea Lion and the Snow Moth to the various details of the Ball Sea Lion's evolution into the Flower Sea Lion.

Qishu listened with great interest, exclaiming from time to time: "Wow, the Sea Lion actually has a hidden trait. Sister Yishu is quite lucky. And this Snow Moth and this trainer sister, they look very powerful too."

Qishu looked at Su Kexin and the snow moth, and his eyes lit up, as if he had discovered some treasure!

As the two were talking, the florid sea lions and snow moths in the arena had already launched a new round of attacks. The florid sea lion took the lead, rushing forward, its tail raised high, creating a blast of water that whipped towards the snow moth.

The snow moth flapped its wings flexibly, dodging the attack sideways, and then opened its mouth to spray out a thick silk, trying to restrain the flower sea lion... Seeing this, Zhang Heng and Qishu also paused their conversation and began to pay attention to the game.

The water element surges around the Flower Sea Lion, and it is in tune with its trainer Yishu, as if there is an invisible bond between the two.

Yishu's eyes were burning as he muttered something to himself. The Z pure crystal in his hand shone with a dazzling blue light, echoing with the water energy of the Flower Sea Lion.

The Flowery Sea Lion hummed softly towards the sky, and the water energy in the arena was madly drawn and gathered, forming a huge blue energy vortex in front of it. That was the sign before the water-type Z move was launched.

On the other side of the field, facing such a powerful attack, Senior Sister Su showed no fear at all.

She has a seriously ill father, a deceased mother, and comes from a poor family. She does not have those expensive Pokémon strengthening systems, but only has trust and tacit understanding with Pokémon. She has always firmly controlled the rhythm of this battle.

These snow moths have always been kept in the breeding house. The senior will only take them back during competitions because she does not have the ability to breed so many Pokémon at the same time.

"Snow moth, hold on!"

Upon hearing this, the snow moth quickly adjusted its posture, and a faint green light appeared around its body. This light was like a solid shield, tightly wrapping it.

In the blink of an eye, the Flower Sea Lion's water-type Z move came roaring with ferocious force, heavily slamming into the protective shield of the Snow Moth.

In an instant, a deafening roar erupted in the stadium, light spread everywhere, and a powerful energy impact spread in all directions. The surrounding air seemed to be ignited, and the audience covered their ears and stepped back.

The shield that held it in place trembled violently under the impact of the Water Z-Move, ripples spreading across its surface, each ripple a sign of impending shattering.

It only lasted for a few seconds before a "crack" sounded, and the shield finally couldn't bear the weight and shattered.

The snow moth, having lost the protection of its shield, was directly hit by the surging water energy.

The snow moth relied on the properties of its ice scale powder to withstand this powerful attack.

The fur on its body was messed up by the water flow, and its wings were more damaged, but it still floated tenaciously in the air.

Senior Sister Su looked at Snow Moth, her eyes filled with heartache and pride, and said softly, "Well done, Snow Moth, Blizzard!"

Due to the aftereffects of its Z-Move, the Flower Sea Lion had lost all means of resistance in the face of the overwhelming snowstorm...
