Pokémon: I just became a Gym Leader, and Cynthia proposed to me.

Chapter 313 The Wind Chaser

It was more than an hour later by the time all the trainers who came to register for tomorrow's gym battle had finished registering.

Kai breathed a sigh of relief. "Master, there are 108 trainers who have signed up! I don't think we can accommodate that many trainers in just one day tomorrow, right?"

Li Shuwen shrugged. "Then we can only put up a notice on the gate tomorrow because there are too many trainers signing up for the dojo competition."

"The Veiled Dojo is temporarily suspending reservations. The specific time for resumption will be determined based on tomorrow's battle situation."

Unless you don't care about the quality of the gym challenge at all.

Otherwise, Li Shuwen wouldn't be able to entertain all 108 trainers in a week.

It's just that those trainers who are slower will have to make do.

"Kai, let them go challenge the other gyms first."

Akai nodded. "I'll update the announcement online right now."

Li Shuwen returned to his room and logged into the trainer forum.

He wanted to know why so many trainers had signed up as soon as he reopened the doors.

These trainers seemed to have been waiting for him to return to Veilstone City for a long time.

When Li Shuwen logged into the Trainer Forum, he saw a new post.

[The Young Chaser: Tomorrow I'll be the first to challenge the Book Librarian. Do you know what the newly upgraded Midas Touch skill is like?]

[The Young Chaser: You don't know! You only see me challenging the Book Librarian and enjoying the most effective Midas touch!]

Li Shuwen blinked. What does "the newly upgraded Midas Touch" mean?

How could he not know when his fictitious Midas touch had been upgraded?

Li Shuwen continued browsing the posts and finally found one about his trip to the Alora region.

This post was made by Forever Burning!

Phil speculated that Li Shuwen wanted to become the head of the Veil Dojo.

He underwent a rigorous period of seclusion, which not only improved the Pokémon's strength but also made Midas's abilities even more powerful.

The newly upgraded Midas Touch will definitely be the first trainer to face Li Shuwen and enjoy the best effects from the upgraded Midas Touch.

The trainers who challenged them afterward were unable to fully unleash the Pokémon's potential because the previous trainer had already used up the Midas Touch effect.

The right time to challenge the Veil Dojo is to compete for the first challenge spot on Li Shuwen's first day back at work after his vacation!

Li Shuwen's lips twitched, entirely because he felt better after taking a vacation than after working for several consecutive days.

It's not about taking a vacation accumulating the Midas touch effect!

Phil is spouting nonsense online again.

Meanwhile, in an internet cafe not far from the Curtain Dojo, the speedy young Ya'en was jumping out of a window to escape.

Who told him to offend so many people? Everyone guessed he would definitely go to the Trainer Forum and post to brag about getting first place.

Yann definitely wouldn't dare go back to the Pokémon Center.

This internet cafe is the best choice.

Normally, Yann would fight as many matches as there are challengers.

but!

He's going to challenge Li Shuwen tomorrow; this will be the first time the upgraded Midas Touch has been used.

Yann and Pokémon, if they can't bring their best to the challenge.

Yann's conscience will torment him for the rest of his life.

Li Shuwen decided to control things tomorrow and make the Pokémon behave more normally.

Actively shatter the myth of the Midas touch.

Tell these trainers to stop focusing so intently on his gym challenge.

This puts a lot of pressure on him!

Yann is the eighth badge, and Li Shuwen arranged a lineup of Mighty Chicken, Electabuzz, and Farfetch'd for the gym battle.

Because there are too many challengers, Li Shuwen will not arrange four-on-four matches.

The process takes a long time, and the Pokémon consume a lot of energy.

Furthermore, having four Pokémon from Yann in the lineup is just in case one of them becomes a special Pokémon.

It will probably be attributed to him again, and it will be credited as the Midas touch.

The next day, at 8:30, Li Shuwen asked Akai to open the dojo gate ahead of time.

They let in the long-waiting Yann and the other trainers.

Yann agreed to let them watch the game and confidently waved to everyone.

"You guys who can't outrun me, just wait and see my amazing performance!"

Li Shuwen first sent out the Mighty Chicken, even though the Mighty Chicken had not evolved.

But these days, strong chickens have been eating a lot of them in the Alola region.

With proper training, the Mighty Chicken displayed a remarkably powerful presence.

With an imposing presence that's 1.8 meters tall, it's already on par with Blaziken.

After a brief moment's thought, Yann said, "Go, Scorpion King!"

Li Shuwen nodded slightly; Yann had raised this Scorpion King very well.

Mighty Chicken is likely to face a tough battle.

The challenger attacked first, and Yann waved his hand, "Scorpion King, Acrobatics!"

Li Shuwen said calmly, "Dodge, Flame Fist."

Scorpion King soared nimbly through the air, performing a series of dazzling maneuvers in an attempt to escape the sight of Mighty Chicken.

Suddenly, it charged at the strong chicken from the left rear, swinging its pincers forcefully.

A glint flashed in the strong chicken's eyes, and with nimble steps, it dodged the Scorpion King's pincers, its fist suddenly bursting into flames.

He turned and punched Scorpion King in the abdomen.

"Defend with your tail!"

Scorpion King flicked its tail and slammed it into Mighty Chicken's fist.

With the help of the strong rooster, it soared into the sky once again.

"Vertical descent, heavy stomp!"

Scorpion King landed quickly, spun around once, and lashed its tail out at Mighty Chicken.

"Avoid! Charged Flame Strike!"

The strong chicken leaped suddenly, and the Scorpion King's tail lashed the ground, causing the earth to tremble.

The mighty rooster charged fiercely at the Scorpion King, its body bursting into blazing flames.

Yarrow immediately exclaimed, "Shadow clone!"

Seven or eight Scorpion Kings lined up in a row, while the strong chicken only managed to knock away one of their shadows.

The trainers watching the battle were all somewhat surprised. One bespectacled man muttered to himself, "I didn't expect this guy to not only be good with words, but also actually have some skill."

Another athletic man scoffed, "The Scorpion King's strength is impressive, but what's the point if his attacks can't hit?"

"He calls himself a speed demon, but this is all the speed he can demonstrate."

Whether it was because he heard those words or not, Yann suddenly recalled Scorpion King.

"Go, Pidgeot!"

Li Shuwen looked at the eagle's glossy, fluffy feathers and sharp eyes.

I knew this was another elite unit.

It seems that Yann is also a trainer specializing in the Flying type.

"Pidgeotto, Quick Attack!"

Li Shuwen immediately ordered, "Hold the line!"

The emerald green protective shield had just appeared when Pidgeot crashed into it.

The speed that Pidgeot displayed silenced the trainers watching the battle.

Influenced by the words of those around him, Yann is still not mature enough.

"Pidgeotto, Air Blade! Let them witness our ultimate whirlwind attack!!"

Li Shuwen narrowed his eyes slightly, deciding not to give Ya En a chance to show his skills.

"Powerful Chicken, Flash Charge!"

The people around were quite surprised to see the Mighty Chicken quickly transform into flames and rush towards Pidgeot.

The bespectacled man pushed up his glasses. "It's still a Roborock, yet it can use Flare Blitz so skillfully. No wonder it's the Librarian's Pokémon."

Pidgeot didn't expect Combusken to arrive so quickly. It was knocked away head-on by Flare Blitz. Despite the scorching flames, Pidgeot flapped its wings to adjust its aerial posture.

Y'en gritted his teeth, "Pidgeot, use Air Blade again!"

As soon as the Mighty Chicken landed, the Pidgeot flapped its wings and flew around it in the air.

At the same time, gusts of wind blades formed from all directions, cutting towards the center of the strong chicken.
