My Pokémon Story of Seasons

Chapter 236 Who Else Can't Fly?

Ms. Anli rubbed her eyes, confirming that she really didn't seem to be seeing things.

However, Ms. Anli was certainly not foolish enough to point this out. After all, Tong Hua was one of her students, and if he won the championship, she would get the prize money!

Moreover, if we were to actually say it, wouldn't that be slapping the principal in the face?

Thinking of this, Ms. An Li coughed lightly and casually looked away: "The principal is right. I could tell a long time ago that Tong Hua is indeed a very talented student."

"arrive!"

Tong Hua quickly dropped the oar and leaped ashore.

This feeling of having my feet firmly on the ground is much more comfortable. Rowing, well, it's just too tiring.

However, Tong Hua herself knew that the speed at which she rowed the boat just now was absolutely abnormal.

"Bree~"

After glancing at Tibrim, who had returned to his hood, Tong Hua already knew what had happened.

"You must have used magic to speed up the ship, you must have worked so hard."

Tong Hua said softly, reaching out to touch the little guy inside the hood.

-

"Bri~" Tibrim rubbed his fingers triumphantly, which was taken as tacit agreement.

Riolu and Grovyle also came ashore, both Pokémon looking at Tong Hua with excited eyes. They were still completely unaware of what had happened, truly believing that their own power had unleashed such incredible speed!

Tong Hua smiled at them but didn't offer any further explanation. The most important thing now was to finish the final stage.

After getting off the boat, we passed through a wide and flat section of road. The race is now halfway through, and we will have to turn back for the next stage.

"We're here, we're here—"

Just after Tong Hua and the others left the shore, Mu Mu, riding the Megalodon, also shakily returned to the shore.

"Th-thank you, Megalodon—"

"Huh!"

The Megalodon felt a little sorry for Mumu and flicked its fin at him. However, it still had to go back over there, since each student it brought over would mean an extra meal tonight.

After offering a few words of comfort, the Megalodon plunged back into the lake and swam away. Mumu collapsed to the ground, her legs weak, her face pale.

"This is too exciting—Junior Brother, he really isn't human, is he?"

Otherwise, how could you row so fast and so easily?

Mu Mu watched Tong Hua's departing figure and muttered to himself. He simply couldn't understand how a human could outpace a megalodon, a creature renowned for its speed, in rowing.

By this time, the other students had also arrived at the shore, all of them panting heavily. Some collapsed to the ground, while others held their knees and gasped for breath; the scene was quite chaotic.

Seeing this, Mumu quickly got up and chased after Tong Hua's retreating figure.

Several tens of minutes later, before the third stage.

"The last section is the climbing area!" Seeing that someone had finally arrived, the staff quickly shouted a reminder, "Please fasten your safety ropes, know your limits, and safety comes first!"

Tong Hua still did not choose the Pokémon partner provided by the school, because there was actually a hidden rule in this competition.

That means you have to pay school credits as a rental fee to use the Pokémon provided by the school!

In order to maximize his gains, how could Tong Hua allow the school to trick him out of his hard-earned credits in this way? At this moment, Tong Hua had already brought his Pokémon to the rock wall. This rock wall, which was tens of meters high and almost vertical, gleamed with a metallic luster under the sunlight and looked extremely challenging.

Once you reach the top from here, it's an easy downhill climb, and you'll soon arrive at the teaching building at the end!

"Bree————"

Tibrim peeked out from under her hood, her small face filled with worry. The continuous use of magic had left her somewhat tired, and she dared not rashly offer to help with a sport like rock climbing that required precise control.

"Don't worry, just hold on tight," Tong Hua said softly, as if she could read her mind.

"I'll take you to the top!"

Tong Hua carefully inspected the safety rope, his gaze fixed firmly on the top of the rock face.

"Ooh!" "Kuku!"

After securing the safety rope, Riolu and Grovyle, the two Pokémon beside Tong Hua, immediately got into action.

Riolu closed its eyes, and blue wave energy spread out like ripples on water, precisely marking the safest climbing route on the rock face. The Forest Lizard tensed its body; its solid muscles made this challenge seem effortless.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

The forest lizard used its legs to leap rapidly across the rock face, climbing several meters in just a few breaths!

Seeing this, Riolu and Tong Hua were not to be outdone. They each took a deep breath and firmly grasped the first point of leverage.

Their movements were perfectly synchronized, clean and efficient! Every step landed precisely in the pre-marked position.

"Bri!" Tibrim, the only one without a safety rope, nervously grabbed Tong Hua's collar, but soon found that his climb was unusually smooth, as if he was already familiar with the route.

The staff below watched in astonishment. The student was not only incredibly fast, but also had such skillful rock climbing techniques that he was like an experienced mountaineer.

Tong Hua focused intently on climbing upwards, his eyes fixed only on the summit, and gradually he could no longer even feel the wind in his ears.

He seemed to be completely immersed in the sport of rock climbing. His breathing and movements were perfectly synchronized, and every reach and every step was incredibly precise.

Riolu followed closely behind, its Aura allowing it to anticipate the stability of each foothold. The Forest Lizard, on the other hand, displayed astonishing agility, traversing the rock face as if it were flat ground.

The three-person team displayed their unique skills and easily conquered the rock wall, almost overwhelming it.

"call----"

Standing at the top, Tong Hua looked down at the view and let out a long breath.

Tong Hua was standing on the top of the rock wall, enjoying the joy of reaching the summit, when he heard the sound of wings flapping overhead.

Looking up, I saw several Pidgeots and Munchkins slowly landing, carrying other students.

"Huh? The school even prepared flying Pokémon?"

The students who had chosen Flying-type Pokémon looked at Tong Hua, who had already reached the top, with expressions of disbelief on their faces.

"How come someone actually climbed up here?"

"Forget all that! Charge! The finish line is just ahead!"

The students riding Flying-type Pokémon snapped out of their daze and hurriedly rushed down the slope. They didn't want to be defeated by an outsider.

Seeing this, Tong Hua wasn't about to be outdone and shouted to the Pokémon around him, "We can't fall behind!"

"Ooh!" "Kuku!" Riolu and the forest lizard responded immediately.

The downhill path was easy, but catching up with the students who had already taken the lead wasn't easy. Tong Hua had a sudden inspiration and said to the forest lizard, "Let's make a simple zipline with the vines!"

The forest lizard understood and lashed out its vines, which entangled a tree trunk far in the distance. Tong Hua grabbed the vines, and Riolu followed closely behind. The three of them used the force of gravity to quickly slide down the slope.

"Bri!" Tibrim grabbed Tong Hua's collar tightly, both nervous and excited.

This unexpected move allowed them to quickly close the distance with the students in front. Those students who were originally rushing ahead heard the commotion behind them, turned around, and were immediately frightened.

"They've got cheat codes?! How did they get there so fast?!"

"Speed ​​up! Speed ​​up even more!"

A fierce chase unfolded on the final stretch of the track. Tong Hua, relying on his perfect teamwork with the Pokémon, skillfully navigated the winding downhill road and gradually caught up with the leading group.

The finish line was clearly visible, and the teachers gathered in front of the teaching building cheered.

Tong Hua took a deep breath and launched a final sprint with the Pokémon!
