Chapter 99 Endurance Training and Massage Techniques
Xuan Mingtian looked in the direction of the sound and saw Bai Ying staring at him with an angry expression, as if she would beat him up if he didn't take it.
"Uh, it seems you didn't bring your Bulbasaur. I'll go back and get it right away. I almost forgot it was at my house."
Xuan Mingtian's words made Bai Ying so angry that her eyes turned red.
At this moment, Xiao Gang, who was eating melon seeds nearby, said, "Xiao Tian, you don't need to go back to get it, I already have it with me."
Oh ho, so all of that was just Xiao Gang doing this to watch the drama unfold. It seems he's now got a new side besides being the all-powerful Xiao Gang. I wonder if it's because he's been living with Xuan Mingtian for so long, or if the former has always kept this side of him hidden.
"As expected of Brock, I would have forgotten without you. Here, class monitor, this is your Bulbasaur." Xuan Mingtian said as he handed the Poké Ball from Brock's hand back to Bai Ying.
In no time, the trio arrived at the venue with their classmates, but the teacher had already arrived, and standing next to him was a super cool senior brother (Infernape).
Infernape
Attribute: Fire, Fighting
Characteristic: Blazing Fire (When stamina is low, an amazing flame will erupt from within the body, used to prove one's fighting spirit, and also to increase the power of skills.)
Certification: Green
Strength: Mid-tier Elite
Skills: Flame Burst, Quick Defense, Flame Charge, Flame Fist, Charged Flame Strike...
Evaluation: This is a fairly average senior disciple, with a lot of room for improvement. The flames burning on his head represent his explosive personality.
From afar, all of the senior brother's information instantly appeared on the data panel. As expected of an elite trainer registered in the league, even his Pokémon are so cool, and his strength should not be underestimated.
"Alright, students, the purpose of the Pokémon battle training class is to teach you how to train your Pokémon properly, as well as all the details of battle," Teacher Zhu said in a clear voice after the students had gathered.
"Teacher, we don't need to pay attention to these details in Pokémon battles, right? Isn't winning the battle all that matters?"
For a moment, all the students in the class looked at that student as if he were an idiot.
"I've watched your grade's competition. Perhaps because I haven't been exposed to Pokémon battles, I can only say that your battles were absolutely terrible, except for a few students who knew how to exploit small details."
Teacher Zhu's words immediately caused an uproar and anger among everyone.
"Teacher, how could you say that..."
But before the student could finish speaking, the teacher interrupted him: "Am I wrong? Just like what you two just said, you can't even make it into the top 50. Instead of finding the reasons for your own shortcomings and working hard to train your Pokémon, is that your excuse?"
One sentence silenced all the students present. Although they were still young, in this world of fairies where 10-year-olds could travel alone, 5-year-olds were already very precocious, so they had no way to refute what the teacher said.
At this point, the teacher continued, "If you can crush your peers like Xuan Mingtian, then I have nothing to say. But if you can't do that, then you should learn from Wu Gang and Yang Bin and how they utilize the environment."
The trio exchanged bewildered glances. Overwhelming was indeed possible, but Yang Bin's skill of throwing dirt into eyes needed to be used unexpectedly, otherwise it would be completely useless.
"Release all the spirits. We'll start with an endurance test."
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
At this moment, the sound of Poké Balls opening echoed throughout the training ground. Before long, all the students released their Pokémon, and under the teacher's guidance, they took their Pokémon to a treadmill for an endurance test.
"Start"
At the teacher's command, all the Pokémon began jogging on the treadmill, including Brock's Geodude, since they could hop since they had no legs.
Time passed slowly, and in less than 20 minutes, half of the elves had collapsed from exhaustion.
The teacher said to the eliminated students, "Now massage your elves' bodies. After strenuous exercise, it's necessary to loosen their muscles. This will help them eliminate the aftereffects of exercise more quickly. Now watch my demonstration."
The teacher picked up a Squirtle with his large hands and swam back and forth on its back and limbs with both hands. The teacher's technique made the Squirtle close its eyes and look like it was enjoying itself, calling out "Squirtle~ Squirtle".
After demonstrating for two minutes, the teacher returned the Squirtle to the student and said, "Okay, students, massage your Pokémon gently first, because the massage technique must be just right, the pressure can't be too light or too heavy. This is something that every Pokémon trainer must learn."
After giving a brief instruction, Teacher Zhu looked at the sprite on the treadmill again. To his surprise, although the trio and Bai Ying's sprite had slowed down, they did not show any signs of fatigue.
"Little Gangbin, I think we don't need to attend any more Pokémon battle training classes," said Xuan Mingtian, who was idly standing by.
“Brother Tian, although we don’t need teachers to guide us, we should still give them some face, don’t you think?” Yang Bin said earnestly.
At this moment, Xiao Gang threatened, "Xiao Tian, if you don't study properly, I'll call your aunt. Don't blame me then."
"Xiaogang, you need to calm down. I was just saying that we'll see how things go with the classes. For example, this class is better left to Garlic and the others to train at home."
Xuan Mingtian patiently explained the pros and cons to Xiao Gang. After all, this kind of course was really not suitable for Suan Tou and the others. Having a powerful Pokémon to help them was better than figuring it out on their own.
After thinking for a moment, Xiao Gang compromised and said, "Okay, I can't argue with you, but you can't tell my mom either."
In a short time, the two agreements were finalized, and both parties agreed to keep the leave request a secret from their parents.
Just then, a shadow fell over the trio. They looked up and saw Teacher Zhu's angry and helpless expression.
"Uh, Teacher Zhu, it's not good to eavesdrop on other people's conversations. We were just discussing what to have for lunch," Xuan Mingtian retorted confidently.
Teacher Zhu suppressed her anger and said, "Xuan, I just came to call you, but you were talking too loudly. It's fine if your Pokémon don't come to class, but you also need to exercise and learn how to raise your Pokémon."
Xuan Mingtian didn't answer Teacher Zhu's question, but instead rolled up his sleeves to reveal the weighted bracelet in front of him.
The next moment, Teacher Zhu was stunned on the spot because he saw the number "3" on the bracelet, which meant three times the weight of his body. After all, he was an elite trainer registered in the league, so he had this knowledge. Helpless, he could only leave with a lonely figure.
