Chapter 453 The Strength Ranking is Released!

Whether in terms of physical or special attacks, Incineroar is slightly inferior to Dragapult. In fact, it's quite impressive that it can still land a few hits when ganged up on by three Dragapults.

Draco wouldn't let such a good opportunity pass by while Incineroar was in a state of stun.

The three consecutive water cannon shots that finished the job made the already depressed Blazing Roaring Tiger even more upset.

In the last second before losing its fighting ability, the Blazing Roaring Tiger only had time to move its fingers and give the middle finger to the sky.

Damn it, the No-Sound Pill is spicy!

After Incineroar's defeat, Milotic took over the challenge.

Yeevo and MetalGreymon still couldn't withstand the power of Milotic, a mid-level professional-grade monster. Only Yeevo's Hydro Pump, which split the monster in half again, could manage to whittle it down.

Metal Monster's current strength is the lowest in the team.

Lucario's Teleport is a tough opponent for Incineroar.

But for Milotic, whose mental strength is equally outstanding and who can sense the fluctuations of psychic power in the air.

Simply throw wide-range attacks like Surf, Cleanse Beam, and Mist Ball in the general direction of Lucario's psychic perception, and then wait for Lucario to run out of stamina.

The up-and-coming Lucario still has a slight gap compared to these veteran players.

Then came the Emerald Warrior Eagle, whose presence during the stormy weather provided a pure buff to Milotic. Furthermore, Milotic, who can also fly, received a generous teaching from Latios and Latias, unlocking the Infinity Source.

The adorable Eagle Warrior, who relies solely on silver feathers for food, is still one step behind.

Next, facing the triple firepower of Dragapult, even Milotic, with its powerful moves, was overwhelmed by sheer numbers. Milotic, whose single-round output was comparable to Dragapult, was indeed no match for Hydreigon Proax, and it lost again.

The final score is four points.

Then, the fourth member to join the team, Dragapult, began the wheel challenge. It has already proven that its combination with Dragapult and the others is now the strongest force after Diancie. The oppressive power of a late-blooming Pokémon is fully demonstrated.

It's fair to say they went from selling dorayaki to pineapple buns in a chaotic frenzy.

Su Hao estimated that Dragapult, at its full power, was very close to being a Gym Leader-level Pokémon.

This is despite the fact that the development of the Reversal Force is stalled. The great mage Giratina is truly amazing.

Dorombalut achieved a perfect record of seven wins and one forfeit, making the runner-up position a foregone conclusion.

Next, the Green Warrior Eagle, Lucario, Yeev, and MetalGreymon fought one by one, and the battle came to an end as night deepened.

In Su Hao's team, the ranking based on points clearly reflects the approximate division of strength within the team.

Undefeated, 7 points – Diancie.

Six wins and one forfeit, 6 points – Dorombalut.

Five wins, one forfeit, and one loss, 5 points – Blazing Roaring Tigers.

Four wins, one forfeit, and two losses, 4 points – Milnas.

Three wins, one forfeit, and three losses, 3 points – Lucario.

Two wins, one forfeit, and four losses, 2 points – the Warriors Eagles.

One win, one forfeit, and five losses, 1 point – Ye Yibu.

Zero wins, one forfeit, six losses, 0 points – Metal Monster.

If Mewtwo could see this result, he would definitely be disappointed.

However, MetalGreymon has only been in the team for a short time, and as a Pokémon that matures late, it has a promising future.

The only thing that surprised Su Hao was that Lucario actually defeated the Green Warrior Eagle. In the midst of turbulent waters and torrential rain, the coordinate calculation for teleportation would be delayed.

However, Lucario defied the disadvantage and used Teleport to knock the Green Eagle to the ground in mid-air, followed by a series of Steel-type moves.

Throughout the entire match, the one who was most unwilling to accept defeat was Blazing Roar Tiger.

It finally had the chance to make a comeback, but it was defeated by Dracobalo, the dragon that blocked its way.

Next, the strength of teammates with legendary power will only increase dramatically.

But I can only improve slowly and linearly...

Unless you encounter a legend

He must absorb the spark of fire and transform it into his own power, and cultivate a magnetic field to rotate; otherwise, he will only be thrown further and further away.

Ultimately, the prize money was easily taken by Diancie, who immediately donated it all to the crowdfunding website for the comic's anime adaptation that very night.

The news that an ID named "Radiant Princess" spent 1.35 million yuan on a crowdfunding website has also sparked considerable discussion in the ACG community.

The runner-up prize money, Doronbaluto, plans to use it to buy some beautiful stones to serve as the foundation for his Gem Mountain.

The prize money from the third place was used by Blazing Roar Tiger to order a batch of more intense training equipment, as it is determined to take revenge on Doronbaruto in the next intra-team competition!

There is another Pokémon that shares the same idea.

Milotic felt uneasy about the speed at which his power was increasing.

Now even Incineroar can defeat him head-on, because as the Infinite Source level increases, Latios and Latias are unsealed, and Milotic, who had become somewhat complacent, has regained his sense of crisis.

During this period, its presence was not only extremely weak, but its strength had not increased significantly compared to the High School Cup; it had only moved up a small level.

Although Milotic's leveling up in a month is considered fast among professional Pokémon, which typically level up in a year, it still feels it's not enough, not nearly enough!

The fragments of the water-drop stone slab that Su Hao entrusted to him for safekeeping were a perfect opportunity.

According to Su Hao, the fragments of the Water Drop Slab contain the source energy of all water-type energy. From the weakest Magikarp to the powerful Kyogre, their energy and abilities evolved from this source.

If I can absorb the energy from the water droplet stone slab fragments, can I speed up my leveling up, make the Infinite Source transform into my own power without any side effects, and even master those legendary waters that are so miraculous?

The bitterness of defeat allowed Milotic to rediscover the helplessness it felt during its Feebas days, as well as the lost obsession it had once possessed.

It wants to become stronger, stronger than Latios and Latias!

------------

The attached images show the Thunder Beast and Lightning Beast.

This Pokémon seems quite obscure; many people probably don't recognize it. It can even Mega Evolve!

Thunder Beasts are extremely rare and usually appear under abnormal thunderclouds. Legend has it that their habitat is where lightning strikes, so people believe that they are born from lightning.

The Thunder Beast uses electricity to stimulate muscle movement, making it incredibly fast; it is said to run faster than lightning.

Furthermore, electricity is also very effective in relieving muscle pain, so it can quickly heal one's injuries.

However, because it is constantly discharging electricity from its mane, it sometimes sparks and ignites wildfires.

At the start of the battle, Raiden concentrates the electricity in the air into its mane to create thunderclouds, and then launches lightning to attack the enemy.

Chapter 454 Trial of Knowledge

At the foot of the Lake Tower, Jiangcheng University President Zhao Caiwei gave everyone a speech of encouragement, as is customary, before the opening ceremony.

This time, the Tower of the Lake is still only open to the school team's regular members, and is activated by energy crystals of extremely high purity.

However, Su Hao guessed that a large portion of the energy in this energy crystal had probably been embezzled by the Three Lakes Gods and used as the energy source for their own projections.

"Don't let us stay inside for another month!"

"Last time you went up to the tenth floor, I bet you'll get past five in the next two weeks!"

He could hear his teammates teasing him, but Su Hao could also see the seriousness and pressure hidden in their eyes.

Even though he often went out and had fun, he could still see Li Xiao from next door leaving early and returning late when he was at school. Even Lin Ke, whom Su Hao usually saw on dates with, consciously reduced the number of times they met.

As the undisputed ace, the goal of securing a top-five finish and striving for a top-three position puts a lot of pressure on Li Xiao.

Mu Yao, the captain of the support/interference team, also frequently discussed tactics with Su Hao on chat software to understand Su Hao's Pokémon's battle habits so that she could arrange for the corresponding support Pokémon to undergo targeted training.

Everyone was working hard. Although Su Hao was confident that he had no chance of losing the game he played in, he was still inspired by their emotions and trained much more actively.

After all, the content of the second and third trials he would face was completely unknown. Last time, at least he was transported to a Pokémon world where the strength of the good guys was much greater than that of the bad guys.

What if this time he's teleported to some ultimate metropolis, the Ore region, or even the headquarters of the dark matter?

Preparing for the worst, some pessimistic thoughts flashed through Su Hao's mind. However, he knew perfectly well that this trial was deeply connected to Arceus, and he probably wouldn't be sent to his death.

As Alakazam, skilled in spatial manipulation, once again offered the energy crystal to the Lake Tower in a mysterious ritual, a humming sound like a night bell resounded throughout the entire island.

The teleportation array beneath the nine people began to operate. With a familiar dizziness and weightlessness, Su Hao's vision blurred, and he reappeared in the magnificent space where he had briefly stayed after completing the first trial.

However, this time, what appeared before him was no longer Arknom's blue mushroom head, but another yellow mushroom-headed lake god.

The small, grey body of the creature floated in mid-air, its two tails, each with a ruby ​​at one end, swaying slightly, and its yellow face, inlaid with rubies, faced Su Hao.

Even though its eyes were closed, Su Hao could still feel it watching him.

Yuxi is known as the god of knowledge and is said to have the power to erase the memories of those who meet his gaze. Therefore, he always squints or keeps his eyes closed, perfectly embodying the saying that squinty-eyed people are all monsters.

"Is the second trial a trial of knowledge...?"

The moment Su Hao saw Yu Kexi, this thought popped into his mind.

The Trial of Will tested my willpower during the crisis of the Tree of Origin, so what will the Trial of Knowledge test me for?
