Elf: Starts with small diamonds, then mutates into Diancie.

"Oh dear, why did you suddenly decide to call Mommy, baby?" A melodious and gentle female voice came through the phone's microphone, and Su Hao's eyes twitched.

"Let Mom guess, you've got a girlfriend and don't have enough money, so you're asking Mom for funds, right? Wait a minute, Mom will transfer the money right away~"

Before Su Hao could even speak, Ms. Su Qing had already imagined and stated Su Hao's motives for making the call. If this continued, who knew what other direction the conversation would take? Su Hao quickly interrupted.

"Mom, it's like this."

Su Hao had protested countless times since childhood, but still couldn't correct Su Qing's way of addressing him. He could only helplessly tell her that he was troubled about which university to visit after reading hundreds of invitations from his family today.

On the other end of the phone, Su Qing was listening to Su Hao speak while holding the phone between her shoulder and arm, her hands constantly checking a batch of Eevee pigs that had recently been sent to the research institute.

These Eevee were rescued by the World Pokémon Protection Association from a criminal organization that conducted inhumane experiments on Pokémon, and a small portion of them were sent to their research institute for treatment.

Realizing that she had fallen into the trap of letting her thoughts wander again, Su Qing immediately apologized, "Mommy was overthinking it. Baby, don't think that Mommy is rushing you. Just follow your own pace."

"However, visiting the university..."

Su Qing pondered for a moment, then suddenly had a great idea. She said excitedly, "Didn't you say you needed my help with Xiao Sui... Diancie's matter? It just so happens that Mom has a nice university here. You can visit it when you bring Diancie over!"

Upon hearing Su Qing's suggestion, Su Hao suddenly remembered that the city where Su Qing's Evolution Research Institute was located happened to have several universities that had sent him invitations to visit!

"Then I..."

"You can come anytime you want!"

"it is good."

Chapter 139 An unexpected call

A week has passed since Su Hao returned to Yangcheng.

Every morning this week, Su Hao would take Incineroar to Grandpa Wang's house to practice his Thunder Fist techniques, and then take Diancie and Milotic to the Sunrise Gym for continued training.

He and his mother, Su Qing, arranged a date to travel to the Pokémon Evolution Research Institute in Shanghai to collect some data on Diancie, in preparation for the future public disclosure of Diancie's existence.

The departure date is approaching; Su Hao will take a direct train to Shanghai tomorrow.

So today is the day for him to check the results of his training with the four Pokémon over the past week.

On the spacious training ground, the Blazing Roaring Tiger abandoned its upright walking posture. Its arms, which resembled those of a gibbon, supported the Blazing Roaring Tiger as it charged and dodged across the field.

After switching to quadrupedal running, the Blazing Roaring Tiger's mobility was greatly improved.

In the middle of the arena floated a dozen irregularly shaped rocks, created by Diancie using primal power, with the aim of allowing the Blazing Roaring Tiger to showcase the results of its week of special training.

Along the path of the Blazing Roaring Tiger as it races at high speed, a few rocks will always appear at just the right spot to block its way.

When blocked, the Blazing Roaring Tiger will often use its lower limbs to leap high into the air, its right palm flashing with golden arcs of electricity before quickly condensing into a lightning fist move.

The way the Blazing Roaring Tiger uses the Thunder Fist technique is more like a "palm" than a "fist".

One of the distinctive features of the Blazing Roaring Tiger's body is its large, fan-like paws. Combined with the strength of its arms, each "Thunder Palm" strike can shatter a rock blocking its path.

On the other side, Milotic kept using her most proficient physical attack moves, alternating between Dragon Tail and Aqua Tail to counter and maintain rhythm as Power Gems attacked her wave after wave.

The intensity of the attack was just enough to allow Incineroar and Milotic to catch their breath.

This was a training program that Su Hao proposed when he learned that Tianxi was practicing shaping diamonds into other shapes.

Diancie needs to maintain a consistent attack rhythm, focusing on both Incineroar and Milotic.

This allows for more refined training of her control over her own moves, which can be considered a strength of Coordinators.

A skilled Coordinator not only needs to pay attention to the flashiness of their moves, but also needs to ensure that their Pokémon are strong enough, making them a trainer with a different style of battle.

Su Hao drew on the concept of coordination created by coordination trainers to try to help Diancie take another step forward on her body shaping journey.

Diancie is not lacking in the power of her moves; what she needs now is complete control over everything about herself in order to find a path to further advancement.

To motivate the three Pokémon, Su Hao specifically set up punishments and rewards.

It is commonly known as "drawing a big pie in the sky".

If Diancie can maintain her defenses against Incineroar and Milotic for a month during training, Su Hao will buy her a phone that's exclusively hers, so she can watch anime whenever she wants.

What tempted Diancie was the cell phone, but that didn't work on Milotic and Incineroar.

Su Hao knew Milotic and Incineroar's preferences perfectly well.

Fiery Roaring Tiger has always wanted a custom gym of his own, since the equipment used by humans is not very suitable for him.

Besides training, Milotic thinks about food the most, and Su Hao promised Milotic a month's worth of meals he could order at will.

Upon hearing about the benefits, both Pokémon's eyes turned red, and they continued to try to break through the encirclement.

Diancie floated in the center of the field, her hands pointing towards Incineroar and Milotic respectively.

Her pink pupils scanned the surroundings intently, and she would immediately replenish the Primal Power and Power Gem whenever Incineroar and Milotic broke through a portion of their Primal Power and Power Gem.

Su Hao asked Diancie to limit her contribution to the elite level, which was a way of giving Incineroar and Milotic a chance.

Otherwise, the vast difference in strength would prevent them from even dealing with Diancie's moves.

The three Pokémon were locked in a fierce battle on the field, neither willing to give way. Su Hao rubbed Dragapult's head, looking somewhat troubled.

This was triggered after he spoke with Miao Yin, who called himself one of the Twelve Earthly Branches, before he returned to Yangcheng.

The system task.

[Task: Seed Project]

[Mission Objective: Rank among the top eight in the Seed Project selection to gain entry into the Nirvana Realm]

[Task Rewards: 1. The higher the ranking, the more system currency you will receive, with the highest reward being 100 million system currency for first place. 2. Evolution Key Stones.]

[Accept/Reject]

This was the only time, after Su Hao activated the system, that the system issued a task before he had even thought it through.

According to Miao Yin, the Seed Project will be a battle among the most talented young people in the Shenzhou Alliance, and the currently confirmed candidates are basically all senior and junior students.

Miao Yin and his team do not have fixed criteria for selecting seeds. They can report good seedlings if they come across them, and there is no problem if they do not.

The Shenzhou Alliance does not offer any material, prestigious, or official rewards to those who make recommendations.

Even so, most of those qualified to make recommendations selected suitable juniors to submit for review.

Most veteran trainers choose to recommend their own family's talented trainees or disciples of the appropriate age. Although Miao Yin is qualified to recommend, he has neither family nor disciples.

Some wealthy individuals even came to his door offering huge sums of money to buy the recommendation qualification, but Miao Yin refused.

He felt that with Su Hao's talent, and with the fact that he could temporarily take Su Hao as a disciple to help him grow, he might be able to stand out in the selection competition a year later.

While it was said that Su Hao had become his nominal disciple, in reality, Miao Yin was helping Su Hao become stronger free of charge, and Su Hao did not need to fulfill any of the obligations of a disciple.

Miao Yin simply felt that Su Hao had great talent and could be nurtured.

Su Hao found it strange. Putting aside Diancie, at his current rate of growth, he would at least have a whole team of professional-level Pokémon in a year.

As far as he knew, even the most gifted senior students would need one or two years after graduation to become a professional-level Pokémon in their entire team.

A year later, when he went to participate, it was more like frying fish in a fishpond than cutting melons and vegetables.

It's strange that such a simple task system offers such generous rewards, making it impossible to refuse!

Just as he was struggling with whether or not to accept the mission, a phone call came in, and Miao Yin's voice rang out.

"Su Hao, what's your decision?"

His voice was slightly impatient because—

"The Seed Program will be held ahead of schedule, and the registration period is about to end."

"The reason is that a new secret realm is about to descend on the high seas. After discussions among the various alliances, it was decided that young trainers, limited to the age of 23, would be sent to battle against each other to determine the allocation of resources in the secret realm!"

"In other words, the top-ranked trainers in the Seed Project will represent the Divine Continent Alliance to face off against geniuses from other alliances!"

Chapter 140 Latias Flight H71

"The earlier planning has greatly shortened the time you originally had to develop, and now I'm not confident that you can get a good ranking by participating earlier."

Do you still want to participate?

Miao Yin felt it was a pity. If Su Hao had been given time to grow, he was confident that Su Hao would not be inferior to those geniuses.

The sudden news surprised Su Hao, but he didn't think there was anything wrong with it being announced in advance.

After all, the system even offered keystones worth one million system currency as a reward, so the difficulty must not be too easy.

Having made up his mind, Su Hao comforted him, "Even if you don't make it into the top 128 elimination rounds, there will still be rewards. Just think of it as broadening your horizons."

He sensed that Miao Yin's words implied that they should avoid getting beaten up. Su Hao couldn't very well say that he thought he could use Diancie to beat up the senior students right now.

He subtly suggested that he could go and broaden his horizons.
