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

There, head coach Zhao Yun was waiting for them.

As soon as everyone arrived, Zhao Yun didn't waste any time with pleasantries and went straight to the point.

"Everyone has seen the table I posted in the group for this team training, so I don't need to repeat it again, right?"

Zhao Yun's gaze swept over the group of school team regulars, lingering on Su Hao for a moment, a look of surprise flashing in her eyes.

The nine starting players looked at each other, clearly knowing who their teammates were.

Su Hao's gaze first fell on Zhao Yunlan, then on Xia Xiaoguang, and he sighed silently.

One has the face of a high school student, and the other has the face of a middle school student; their teammates seem a bit unreliable.

Li Xiao, Lin Daoyi, and Jiang Xiangyun, who went to the Evergreen Forest, aside from Li Xiao, senior Lin Daoyi and senior Jiang Xiangyun seem very reliable and have a steady personality.

And the three senior sisters, Mu Yao, Xu Qin, and Long Ningyan, who went to the Tide Secret Realm, are much more reliable than Zhao Yunlan and Xia Xiaoguang, who are currently glaring at each other.

Now, people only care about appearances, as if they've become the oldest person, and they also have to take care of two immature kids whose mental age adds up to no more than six years old.

What is this all about?

Ice Eevee.

Chapter 397 Crown Snowfield

Su Hao had also heard about the "grudges" between Zhao Yunlan and Xia Xiaoguang.

For some childish reasons, Xia Xiaoguang, a Psychic-type specialist, even went to Hawaii to evolve an Electric/Psychic-type Alolan Raichu.

An eye for an eye, Zhao Yunlan went out of his way to tame a Water/Dark type Greatsword Demon.

With two brilliant and talented individuals as teammates, it would be strange if Su Hao wasn't troubled.

"The details of your training in the perilous secret realm will be explained by the garrison commander on the other side of the teleportation array. This round of training will last approximately one week."

"The main purpose is to coordinate your team's combat capabilities and prepare for the college league in a little over a month."

Zhao Yun's gaze swept over the nine regular team members in front of her, and when she looked at Su Hao, a look of worry was clearly on her face.

The other participants were all seasoned veterans; it was just a matter of whether Su Hao, the newbie, could adapt to the harsh environment of the Crown Snowfield.

That's the Crown Snowfield, renowned among the troops stationed throughout the Divine Continent Alliance, a place of howling winds, icy landscapes, and unpredictable weather.

It could easily be considered the most challenging filming location for extreme survival scenarios.

It was in such a harsh environment that Su Hao, a young master who should have had a smooth life since childhood, was forced to experience it.

Su Hao was unaware that Zhao Yun viewed him this way; he was only thinking about one thing right now.

Speaking of the Crown Tundra, one must mention the eight legendary Pokémon added in the Sword and Shield DLC, The Crown Tundra.

Moltres, Zapdos, and Articuno are the three legendary Pokémon subspecies, also known as Galar forms.

It changed from a Fire/Flying type to a Dark/Flying type Moltres (in Galar form).

Zapdos (Galarian form) changed from an Electric/Flying type to a Fighting/Flying type.

It changed from an Ice/Flying type to a Psychic/Flying type Articuno (in Galar form).

There is also the legendary King Rathalos, known as the King of Abundance, and his two beloved horses, the Snowstorm Horse and the Spirit Horse.

Finally, there are the two newly added Divine Pillars.

Reggie Elegy, the Electric God Pillar.

Reginald Lagoon, the Dragon God Pillar.

It's unlikely that so many legends could gather in the Crown Snowfield of this world, since it's open to these college students for training.

There are so many legendary Pokémon in the Crown Tundra. The Shenzhou Alliance is too busy hiding this secret realm that has long since merged with the terrain to become a dangerous place.

Where would college students be given the opportunity to gain experience?

As long as he stays with the group and doesn't wander off, he shouldn't encounter any trouble.

Su Hao had this premonition.

"I won't say anything more. I wish everyone a successful completion of the training mission."

"Now each team can gather together for a while to communicate. When you're ready, let me know, then stand on the teleportation array, and we'll use the power of space to send you directly to the training base."

Upon hearing this, the nine people consciously formed teams of three and stood in formation.

Su Hao glanced at Zhao Yunlan and Xia Xiaoguang, and his lips twitched.

Zhao Yunlan, acting like a good buddy, tiptoed and hooked his arm around Su Hao's shoulder, asking with a smug look, "Aren't you panicking?"

Xia Xiaoguang curled his lip and said sarcastically, "Why is he panicking? I'm more worried that some people will be beaten into running away with their heads in their hands by the freeze-drying of wild Pokémon again."

Zhao Yunlan seemed to have been hit where it hurt, and said with a defiant look, "It's as if you've never been chased by the Mannura tribe there."

Neither of them would back down, and so they started exposing each other's shortcomings in front of Su Hao.

Just as Su Hao was listening with great interest, the team leader Mu Yao couldn't stand it any longer. She grabbed both of them by the head and said coldly, "Don't cause trouble for Su Hao, this freshman. Be good, understand?"

"You don't want to come back from your training and have a tense and exciting 6vs6 all-out battle with me, do you?"

Mu Yao's two sentences were very damaging. Zhao Yunlan and Xia Xiaoguang, who were arguing with each other, seemed to recall some bad memories, their bodies trembled, and they instantly fell silent.

After intimidating the two, Mu Yao calmly returned to the group under Su Hao's lingering gaze, and waved to Su Hao with Xu Qin and a smile.

Long Ningyan said a few words to Zhao Yun, then stepped into the teleportation array and teleported away.

Su Hao sighed inwardly, finding it quite amusing that the two of them were revealing each other's dirty secrets; he hadn't had enough of it yet.

Once things quieted down, Xia Xiaoguang suddenly remembered something, beckoned Su Hao over, and said to him, "Speaking of which, Su Hao, is this your first time going to the perilous Crown Snowfield for training?"

Upon hearing this, Su Hao's brow twitched, and he nodded slightly, saying, "Is this the first time? Is there anything I need to pay special attention to?"

Xia Xiaoguang nodded in confirmation, and said with a serious expression, "The place we arrived at after the spatial teleportation should be a military fortress called Snowfield Base, which is responsible for handling border smuggling and wild Pokémon incursions."

"Because the snowfield base is quite large, we might encounter trainees from other universities there."

"I'm afraid we can't avoid provocations or competitive situations, since we're being watched by many universities who want to pull us out of the top ten."

Su Hao frowned, feeling somewhat puzzled: "Since it's a military fortress, shouldn't the internal management be very strict? Don't the stationed troops care?"

Zhao Yunlan also came over, looking helpless, and said, "We can manage it. Anyone who causes trouble in the base will be sent home directly, but friction is hard to avoid when going out on missions."

"But don't worry, everyone's strength has improved recently, so we can handle these things without any problem. I'm just reminding you in advance to give you a heads-up."

Zhao Yunlan remembered that he participated in the training when he was a sophomore. At that time, his strength was not enough, and he was bullied terribly.

Of course, the senior students later got their revenge in the competition.

Su Hao nodded, indicating that he understood: "Okay, I get it."

However, he was still somewhat curious.

He seems to have encountered a handful of people who don't know their place; he's never experienced being looked down upon and then retaliating.

If you really encounter someone who doesn't know their place.

Should I strike back defiantly to slap myself in the face, or should I slap myself in the face?

With a subtle sense of anticipation, Su Hao stood on the teleportation array, which was fluctuating slightly with spatial ripples, alongside Zhao Yunlan and Xia Xiaoguang.

This time, it was still Alakazam, Principal Zhao Caiwei's pet, which is skilled in teleportation, that was in charge of the teleportation. With the help of technology, it was able to teleport to creatures other than itself and place them at the designated location.

The familiar visual distortion that appeared before the release of the teleportation technique was already something Su Hao was used to.

After all, in the Pokémon world, Mewtwo has almost become half of its personal mode of transportation.

A purple light flashed, and the figures of the three people on the teleportation array disappeared.

Teacher Hu Di, who was in charge of the transmission, frowned slightly, feeling that something was off this time.

Teleporting three humans shouldn't consume much energy, but this time he felt that his energy consumption was two or three times higher than before.

It's like teleporting a professional-level Pokémon.

Weird.

Chapter 398 Snowfield Base

Su Hao's vision went black as the dizziness he had experienced countless times overwhelmed him.

Now that Suhao Beast has completed its ultimate evolution, it simply waved its hand, and all the disgust vanished, leaving it completely calm and collected.

In contrast, Zhao Yunlan and Xia Xiaoguang, two senior students who had visited the snowfield base, were both inferior to each other.

Zhao Yunlan had practiced martial arts since childhood and had a strong physique, so he had some resistance to these sensations.

On the contrary, Xia Xiaoguang, a homebody, lay on the ground and dry heaved, almost throwing up his breakfast.

Su Hao observed the surrounding environment.

They were in a confined space with a low dome and iron-gray walls all around.
