Master Craftsman of the Elven World

Chapter 494 Traveling Merchants in Chaotic Regions!
The champion of the bullfighting competition has been decided!
Looking at the legendary warriors burning with holy fire ahead, Huang Bo was slightly taken aback. After a brief silence, she sighed as if relieved.

"As it turns out, I knew from the beginning that I couldn't win."

"However, it's not bad to be able to witness such an amazing scene."

"It was a great competition; I had a lot of fun, and the audience enjoyed it too. I've gained a lot of experience for the upcoming Tekken Championship, and I think I'll grow stronger in the future."

Huang Bo put her hands on her hips and then saw her Tauros shaking its head on the ground. She quickly ran over to give Tauros temporary treatment, after which it would be sent to the Pokémon Center for full treatment.

"Congratulations! As expected of one of the Four Heavenly Kings, it was the right choice to send you to participate in this competition."

Seeing Guangtai approaching, Huangbo took the initiative to greet her. There was not much disappointment in her eyes, but rather a great joy, as if she had also accumulated power at the same time.

This failure will become the nourishment for success and will burst forth in the future!

However, if Miss Huangbo knew that she would become a teacher in the future, it wouldn't mean that her path as a fighter would end after becoming a teacher. It's just that compared to ordinary fighters, Huangbo is more like a student with a special talent for sports.

The difference between a sports student and a soldier is huge. And this "sports student" is not the "sports student" you might be joking about!

"I also have to thank you. This final battle allowed Tanjiro to undergo a spiritual transformation." Hikari looked at the cheering audience in the arena, whose joy seemed to fill the entire world!
"The armor of celebration is precisely the armor that has achieved great feats and retains such celebratory sentiments. I wonder if that armor also contains the joy and energy of victory? Merits remembered in times of crisis preserve their own legends."

"Under the influence of the great celebration, even the most tattered armor, as long as it has merit, is a treasure that can be praised for eternity."

"That's why my Samurai has finally completed its final evolution. This is not only the power of me and it, but also the power of you, Tauros, and all the viewers who have come here."

"This is exactly the kind of moment we're talking about when we say 'celebration'!"

In other words, the cursed armor could be armor that suffered a defeat, which, due to the defeat, condensed the energy of the soul, cursing the victorious opponent and thus becoming resentful and angry. After all, its description is "an old armor infiltrated with resentment".

In the context of the Parthian region, eight hundred years ago, although it was home to the largest empire, other kingdoms were still vying for power. Therefore, it was only natural that a great deal of "armor of the victors" and "armor of the vanquished" emerged.

Influenced by this humanistic power, Tanjiro also underwent two completely new evolutions, thus becoming a legend and turning into reality.

Of course, the prototype of Azure Blade Demon is actually a famous legendary knight, and that flaming sword of regret corresponds to the weapon "Flaming Sword" in Spanish legend.

Legend has it that after the swordsman passed away, he was resurrected as a dead man and once again repelled the invading enemy!
Therefore, the Crimson Armor Knight corresponds to the heroes who survived countless battles, while the Azure Flame Blade Demon corresponds to the fallen heroes.

"Perhaps, in a more distant era, Tanjiro also existed in other forms."

Lightmoss patted Tauros's head and fed it some medicine. The bull immediately became energetic and lively again, and it seemed that it didn't need to go to the Pokémon Center at all!
Huang Bo scratched her face with her finger, quite surprised: "Oh, you saying that makes me a little embarrassed."

Wow, the treatment is amazing!

Guangtai: "This is my secret medicine. After taking it, you will recover all your strength."

"waaaaagh!"

The soldiers in formation were dancing around the Crimson Lotus Knights, it looked like some kind of battle dance, and they were very excited!

The biggest and most powerful guy led us guys to a super victory!
"Ah! Ah!"

Milton also wagged its tail, and the pixels in its electronic eyes turned into crescent moons, showing that the electronic dragon also possessed a wealth of emotions.

Being able to share joy and sorrow with companions, and being able to sense the atmosphere around you!

Victory should naturally bring joy, shouldn't it?

The organizers of the event also entered the venue with applause. The scene displayed in this final competition was amazing and it stirred up the enthusiasm of the entire audience. Therefore, there was basically no objection to the title of "Champion Bullfighter"!
Besides, this is a local, recreational competitive event. As long as everyone enjoys it, then the competition is already a great success!

"congratulations."

Principal Mufei also came here with the organizers. Among the special guests, Guangtai even saw Afeng, the gym leader of Yuanmo Town.

No wonder this slightly combative Western pastry chef didn't appear on the battlefield; he was in the VIP section.

Come to think of it, there also seems to be an advertisement for Ah Feng's dessert shop, "Pai Shu Lei Mousse," on the billboards around the arena.

"Pie Sole Mousse is a very popular dessert brand, so A-Feng's work must be quite busy, probably even busier than Lip's."

“All of these museum owners in Padia are workaholics. Apart from the injured Glussia who is not working, I suddenly understand where Glussia’s anxiety comes from.”

Gym leaders in other regions are not as busy with daily shop management and work as the gym leaders in Padia.

Many of them consider Pokémon battles their lifelong pursuit and hope to dedicate their lives to it.

"This is the impact of regional culture and humanistic atmosphere on individuals."

While Guangtai was pondering this, the organizers, in addition to preparing to award the gold trophy, also had to prepare for the transportation of the prizes.

"The strongest bull was defeated by the strongest matador, therefore the golden bullfighting trophy cannot be awarded; instead, a silver bullfighting trophy will be given."

"A silver trophy."

Huang Bo shrugged and shook his head at Lip, who was walking towards him. Lip covered her mouth and chuckled, "Try harder next time! Good luck in the Iron Fist Tournament too!"

"Uh, Iron Fist? Can I really get a good ranking?" Huang Bo suddenly felt a little unsure of herself.

It's said that the weakest contestants are all gym leaders, and there are plenty of Elite Four members and legendary masters among them!
I was initially full of confidence, but now I'm a little nervous!
"However, when I no longer use bullfighting, I will be able to unleash some of my true strength."

Huang Bo muttered to herself.

Regarding the prizes, Radiant Vegetables are a special prize that everyone who wins a place receives. However, Lightmoss gave her Radiant Vegetables to Phoenix, which puzzled Phoenix. Lip coughed softly, covered her face with her hand, and whispered an explanation to Phoenix:

"It is said that the one promoting the Glorious Vegetables is this very same Four Heavenly King. In other words, he is a partner of the Miraculous Tree."

Huangbo exclaimed in surprise, "Eh! I see! Then this thing must be really amazing! It might even be more profitable than a year's worth of Pokémon food!"

Guangtai nodded slightly and then promoted the food further: "Of course! This is food cultivated by Calyrex, a product grown by a legendary Pokémon. For martial artists, it will quickly restore their stamina after consumption!"

The Crown King is also recovering.

I'm about to become a supplier for the Orange Academy cafeteria!
I'm really not far from becoming the King of Vegetables. When I recover from the Crown Snowfield, I'll probably transform into the Giant God Lei on the spot and severely punish the two runaway ponies!

In fact, the Rachelon should have possessed such power.

According to legend, the Bridal King used this power to subdue two horses and become king.

As a result, after getting a horse, he neglected his own training!
In addition, she was hit by Mugentsuna from outer space, which directly caused her concussion and rendered her powerless.

"A legendary Pokémon? I've never heard of one before, but the logo is quite cute. Is this thing a rabbit or a deer? Is that a cauliflower or a head on its head?"

Listening to Huang Bo's earnest complaints, Guang Tai coughed helplessly.

"The head of the Calyrex, though comical, does indeed possess immense power!"

Everyone who sees the Lacecrown makes this comment; we're used to it!

Lightmoy: "Want to buy a plush toy? I have a Calyrex plush toy here. It's excellent for calming your nerves and soothing a wounded heart! It's currently on sale and is very popular among espers!"

"If you encounter a crisis during training in the wild, you can throw the plush toy out to attract the attention of wild Pokémon. The effect is exactly the same as the Clefairy plush toy!"

Lightmoy pulled out a Calyrex doll from somewhere, prompting Lip to exclaim, "Where did you pull that out? A backpack? But I didn't see you put it down!"

From where?
Of course, it's from the connection space of Device C!
This portable space is really useful!
"Speaking of which, were there any other mysterious prizes before?" Guangtai stuffed the dolls into Huangbo and Lip's hands, arousing their curiosity and study, while turning to look at Mufei, who was deep in thought.

During the celebratory awards ceremony, Mu Fei coughed lightly. The current principal of Orange Academy decided to make himself known to Guang Tai.

At the same time, he was basically certain that the person in front of him should be the new Four Heavenly Kings!

"I am Mu Fei, the principal of Orange Academy. Congratulations on winning the title of champion bullfighter in this bullfighting competition."

"Ah! That? Yes, we do have it!"

Mu Fei straightened his posture and, after a moment's thought, decided to ask directly:

"But before that, I'd like to inquire a little. I heard that it was Chairman Ye Ci who made an exception and recruited you?"

"Chairman Ye Ci spoke to me about how outstanding young people in other regions are, and you seem to be a very capable person in those regions as well. At the same time, the chairman also criticized me."

"Orange Academy has a long history of teaching, but it has never produced a talent as outstanding as you. I heard that Chairman Ye Ci invited you to become a special lecturer of the academy, and I fully support this."

Mu Fei gave a brief opening speech, while also expressing his current predicament.

“Hey! Principal,” Guangtai sighed, “I’ve heard that the atmosphere at school is really bad right now.”

"Uh, there are indeed such rumors." Mu Fei wiped his sweat, thinking to himself, "As expected, the specially invited instructors would inquire about things inside the school. The issue of school spirit is a serious problem that Orange Academy is currently facing."

“That’s not just a rumor, Principal. I know you feel powerless about the current situation, but you are the principal.” Guangtai shook his head: “How students should study well, what kind of academic career and life they will have, these are all things you need to consider.”

"You should first sort out the situation at the school, and then we can talk about things like special lectures. Otherwise, it might not be very friendly for you if I go there now."

"As the Four Heavenly Kings, we seem to have quite a lot of work. Sometimes, the Four Heavenly Kings also get involved in the affairs of the academy, don't they?"

"What if we went all out and solved the root cause of the school's problems in one go?"

Guangtai's suggestion made Mu Fei's heart skip a beat, and he fell silent.

This one of the Four Heavenly Kings could have easily done so.

But for principals like Mu Fei, and even other teachers and some students, it wasn't very friendly.

Of course, as the leader in managing local affairs, it is inevitable that the alliance will suppress the old nobles, and the academy is the battlefield where these two forces clash.

However, the bullying problem arose because of problems and irresponsibility at the higher levels.

"Let's talk about the rewards for the competition, Principal."

Of course, even if Mu Fei is now determined to reform the campus, Guang Tai doesn't have time to become a special instructor, so this matter will inevitably have to be put on hold.

However, if Mu Fei could make up his mind, then he wouldn't be Mu Fei.

After all, there were capable people in Padiya, and if Ci wanted to carry out a strong purge, it wasn't impossible for him.

However, Ye Ci is not usually so straightforward; her actions are always subtle and underhanded.

"The people here can be quite cunning at times."

Of all the alliances, the Ranger Alliance is the purest.

Other alliances, however, have some problems to varying degrees.

The Indigo League has been infiltrated by Team Rocket, the Hoenn League is disorganized, and the Sinnoh League is so focused on working overtime that they've neglected Team Galactic.

The United States League ignores all sorts of mysterious organizations, the Kalos League completely disregards civilian affairs, Alola has no league yet, and Galar is manipulated by Chairman Roz, a place of peace and prosperity.

Mu Fei clearly knew that the specially invited instructors would not enter the school before the school's atmosphere changed, but for some reason he felt inexplicably relieved.

Or perhaps, he hasn't figured out what to do yet.

"As for the prize, the Celebration Armor is a special reward. However, the legend has already been witnessed, so your Tan-kun, no, Crimson Armor Knight, should no longer need it."

"However, besides that, we also have other special rewards prepared for the first place winner. The special prizes for this competition are for the promotion of the academy's [Treasure Hunt] event."

"Therefore, such an object was found among the ancient relics of the Parthian Empire. It appears to be some kind of amulet from a Far Eastern country."

"Although it is a bit old, it is a good antique, and I believe it will bring good luck to the winner of the competition."

Mu Fei took out the so-called mysterious grand prize, which looked like a wooden token with gold and copper inlays around the edge. It was very old and had strange characters written on it that could not be deciphered, but Guang Tai could tell that they were characters related to unknown totems!
[Mythical Craft (Lost/Destroyed): Backwater Amulet (Backwater Charm)!]

[Description: One of the legendary goods sold by traveling merchants from a certain region. It is said to possess extraordinary tales and some kind of mysterious blessing; its creator remains a mystery. Antique enthusiasts may seek it at a high price.]

[Effect (Disappeared): When only one Pokémon remains in the battle party, the Pokémon holding this item gains 2.5 times its Attack and Defense, and its Movement Speed ​​increases by one stage!]

[Note: This item seems to have a connection to a distant [chaotic region]. Use your superpowers and advanced skills to find specific types of wood to repair this artifact and restore its power!]

A traveling merchant in a chaotic world?!
In a distant region about 400 years ago, which appeared as a spin-off of the fifth generation, there was a special region called "Pokémon Nobunaga's Ambition".

This region features unique items and is the only "strategy RPG" in the Pokémon series. It's based on the Sengoku period of Japan. The region is divided into 17 provinces, each with a castle and led by a warlord.

Unify the chaotic world and meet Arceus at the [Mysterious Ruins].

Its earth is shaped like an Arceus.

On special days in this region, some special events will occur.

One such event is the legendary "traveling merchant".

Every March, male traveling merchants would visit, and every September, a female merchant, described as very lovely, would visit.

At the same time, they will sell some rather unique legendary items.
Among them, the Backwater Amulet is hailed by players as the most powerful artifact among artifacts!
"In other words."

"Was the traveling merchant who appeared in the history of Parthia, who sold the single-edged sword sheath and the treasure of calamity, related to the traveling merchants in the chaotic region?"

"Or, those two traveling merchants from 400 years ago were descendants of merchants from 1000 years ago."

"Thinking about it that way..."

"This thing really does have a long history."

The legendary mythical artifact has been fortunate enough to see the light of day again.

Guangtai accepted the treasure, but to ordinary people, it was just an ordinary ancient amulet.

"Could it be that the General trait, or rather, the General trait, is based on it?"

"Also, should we extend the item battle strategy to gym battles and test battles? Of course, the tactic of using berries as items is commonly used, so it's not particularly new. Most skilled players know to carry important berries."

"Aside from some legendary tree fruits that are difficult to obtain, other tree fruits are frequently used."

When you return from Zone Zero, perhaps you could offer some advice on this matter to Ye Ci.

After all, we can't let her feel like she's getting paid for nothing, right? And we can also occasionally promote some of the props she made!
