Elf: Start with small diamonds, then mutate into Diancie!

It doesn't seem like a very proper dojo...

Chapter 251 Farewell

The Wing Dojo was formerly known as the Wing Academy, which recruits students who want to learn the secrets of flight.

After the league opened up gym applications, they immediately applied for gym qualifications and started gym challenge operations.

Along the way, there was a constant stream of teachers, apprentices, and visitors.

Many people even approached Su Hao, asking if he was there to challenge the dojo, saying they had strategy guides for sale.

Su Hao ignored them, quickly walked past the salespeople, and entered the dojo's main hall.

The lobby was brightly decorated, but he looked around and couldn't see the front desk for handling business.

After searching for a long time in the empty hall, Su Hao finally found an old man from the capital city in a corner. He was sitting there with a small chair, fanning himself with a palm leaf fan. He looked carefree and unrestrained in a vest and shorts.

Blinking his eyes, Su Hao approached with an innocent look and asked politely like a student, "Excuse me, sir, where can I go to handle my business?"

The old man squinted and looked Su Hao up and down, then waved his palm-leaf fan in a gesture of invitation to leave: "Kid, you look like a high school student. I'm sorry, the dojo is currently full and we're not accepting any more applications."

Su Hao paused for a moment, then waved his hand helplessly and explained, "I don't plan to sign up for the gym apprenticeship; I'm here to send a Pokémon into the Thousand Winds Realm."

Upon hearing this, the old man's eyes widened and his legs stretched out, and he stood up quickly, at a speed that even Su Hao was worried would make him throw up his back.

"The Thousand Winds Secret Realm, you?"

The old man groped around and pulled out a small blackboard from somewhere. He tapped a few words written in chalk on it with his knuckles and kindly reminded him, "Elite Trainer, have you completed the application and approval process?"

"Also, regardless of success or failure, you must pay 300 merit points to enter!"

No matter how he looked him up and down, Su Hao, who was carrying a canvas bag, wearing a white T-shirt, jeans, and canvas shoes and looking like a student, didn't seem like an elite trainer at such a young age.

Trainers in the capital who have achieved such success at this age are all so proud of themselves that they can't wait to hold their heads high and walk sideways.

Aside from his handsome appearance, this kid doesn't seem like a little genius from a big family.

Su Hao had no choice but to show that he had passed the application for qualification and was an elite-level trainer before the old man believed him.

"Is this alright now, sir?"

He never expected that entering a secret realm would be so troublesome...

Entering the Spiral Secret Realm in Yangcheng and the Life and Death Secret Realm in Changpan Forest is so easy, you can get in in a flash.

"It's possible, but kid, don't blame me for being long-winded."

The old man earnestly advised, "Although this Thousand Winds Secret Realm is open to elite-level Pokémon, most early and late-stage elite-level Flying-type Pokémon won't last long."

"They may be thrown out of the secret realm, or they may never return."

"So, come back after you've reached the professional level. The qualification approval is valid for three years."

The old man earnestly advised Su Hao, having already mentally filled in the blanks about Su Hao's background.

First of all, his accent sounds like he's from out of town, and his clothes are simple, so his family doesn't seem wealthy. He probably has some talent and his whole family supports him, which is why he barely became an elite trainer at this age.

Even the merit points worth 300 million Shenzhou coins were obtained through family loans.

The success rate of completing cultivation in the Thousand Winds Secret Realm is already low, so we can't let him waste his precious resources here.

However, the name Su Hao sounds familiar. It seems like I've heard my grandson, who is in his final year of high school, mention it at home.

Su Hao had no idea what kind of image he was projecting onto him. He firmly said, "Thank you for your concern. My Pokémon and I are confident that we can complete the Secret Realm Trial."

Seeing that Su Hao was determined to do so, the old man, being an outsider, had no choice but to compromise and said, "Then come with me and register the Pokémon that will be entering the secret realm."

"it is good."

"What are the Pokémon that entered the secret realm and their strength?" In the registration room, Grandpa Zhao skillfully typed in the information on the keyboard.

On his way to the registration room, he told Su Hao his surname.

"Warrior Eagle, Elite Late Game".

Upon hearing this, Grandpa Zhao raised his head from the computer screen and opened his mouth in great surprise.

The strength of a late-stage elite level should be this kid's trump card, right?

He's one of the best in the college cup competition his grandson mentioned. I wonder if he made it into the main tournament. Maybe we'll see him on TV later.

Despite his surprise, Grandpa Zhao continued typing: "Enter Pokémon Brave Eagle, average attributes plus Flying, strength is late-stage Elite."

Su Hao leaned over to look at the screen, frowned, and corrected, "Tap it, the attributes are superpower + flight!"

"It's the newly discovered species, the Warrior Eagle."

"oh oh......."

The information registration was completed shortly afterward.

"Alright, let's just go straight to the top floor. We can take the elevator there or ride a Pokémon to fly up."

Grandpa Zhao first pointed to the elevator, then to the hole in the building on the other side that led directly to the sky.

"Okay, then I'll take my leave."

Su Hao waved goodbye to Grandpa Zhao and took the elevator directly to the top floor.

After Su Hao left, the lobby on the first floor became deserted again. Grandpa Zhao found a corner, took out a small stool, and sat down to continue being his doorman.

"Let's go... Since Braviary is a recently introduced new species, what about the starter Pokémon...?"

Grandpa Zhao muttered to himself, then suddenly realized the key point.

"Hiss... Could it be that I'm mistaken?"

....................

Once the registration is complete, Su Hao doesn't need to do anything else in the following process.

At the entrance to the Thousand Winds Secret Realm, Su Hao took out a small bag of suitable size and hung it around the neck of the Warrior Eagle.

The staff explained to him that there were no wild Pokémon in the Thousand Winds Secret Realm, only Flying-type Pokémon that other trainers, like Su Hao, had placed there for training.

The Warrior Eagles only need to train inside; there are no other threats besides the ever-changing air currents.

Su Hao touched the Warrior Eagle's massive size and instructed, "All the energy cubes are in this spatial backpack. Don't be stingy, there's plenty."

This is a spatial backpack given to Su Hao by his mother. Because it has a system, he has never used it. Su Hao modified it and put it on Warrior Eagle.

Generally speaking, if one does not leave the Thousand Winds Secret Realm in advance, it takes at least half a month to a month, and at most two months, to complete one training session.

Su Hao prepared the corresponding energy cubes and placed them in a box suitable for the warrior eagle to retrieve with its claws or beak.

Then, to prevent the Warrior Eagle from being injured and not receiving treatment, Su Hao also stored a large amount of life energy in his body to help him repair his injuries.

They were extremely worried.

Before Su Hao could finish his long-winded instructions, a staff member urged, "Mr. Su Hao, the gate to the secret realm has been opened. Please hurry."

Su Hao nodded, patted the strong black wings of the Warrior Eagle, and finally reminded him, "Be careful. I look forward to seeing you transformed when I pick you up next time."

Su Hao didn't say anything like "if you can't hold on, then come out" or "give up," because that would go against the Warriors Eagle's own beliefs.

"Wow—!"

The Warrior Eagle nodded seriously and let out a loud battle roar.

Like a warrior heading into battle, he didn't look back, flying straight and bravely into the unknown danger.

As the gate to the Thousand Winds Secret Realm closed, Su Hao lowered his eyes and thought, "The next time we meet will probably be at the exit on the other side."

"Phew... Next, I'll meet up with Mr. Miao Yin and head to the city of Euleran in the German Confederation."

Su Hao let out a long sigh and slowly left the Flying Wing Dojo.

Chapter 252 News

After leaving the Winged Gym, Su Hao plans to head to the Imperial Capital Airport to pick up his companions Miao Yin and another partner, and together they will take a direct flight to the city of Ordron in the German League to obtain new Pokémon.

An hour later, Su Hao arrived at the capital airport.

It was already noon, and Miao Yin's plane was expected to land in the afternoon.

Su Hao found a temporary spot at the airport to rest and watched the latest news on the hanging TV next to the flight display screen, taking a moment to reflect and relax.

Su Hao did not easily believe everything Miao Yin said, especially regarding the Twelve Earthly Branches organization.

Miao Yin introduced the Twelve Earthly Branches as a hidden force within the Divine Continent Alliance, and claimed to be a Champion-level trainer.

Because he actually released Pokémon to prove his strength, instead of just pretending to trick Su Hao into going abroad for a kidney transplant.

Besides the confirmation from the Fairy Pavilion Master, Su Hao also sought confirmation from his father.

According to Su Xu, Miao Yin is the youngest and also the least capable of the twelve Earthly Branches.

But even the youngest member, Miao Yin, is already in his sixties or seventies.

The other twelve Earthly Branches all retired from public view decades ago; they are all from an even older generation.

It is said that there are also former Four Heavenly Kings champions among them.

In a sense, Miao Yin is exceptionally gifted.

After all, he was chosen as the Tiger of the Twelve Earthly Branches at such a "young" age.

Su Xu also said that he knew about the selection competition that Su Hao had signed up for, and that the selection competition and international exchange competition would not start too soon unless there were signs that the secret realm that appeared on the high seas had arrived.

He told Su Hao to focus on improving his strength, and then he would show off his abilities in front of others.

Finally, Su Xu also revealed something to Su Hao: he had heard from his former master, the Fire King, that the secret realm on the high seas was related to a certain divine beast.

Based on the above information, Su Hao can safely go and collect the new Pokémon without worrying that Miao Yin will harm him.

Even if there are problems, he can still call for backup.
