Pokémon: From Magikarp

Chapter 787: Minion Arena

"Is this the Vajra Palm? Just by seeing the Wearing Bear use it once, can it be replicated to this extent? The talent of this elf is too outrageous. No wonder old man Deng Tianxing praises it so much..."

The strong wind ruffled the clothes of the nameless monk a little. He couldn't help being shocked when he saw his bear apprentice imitating the Vajra Palm with 70% accuracy. Although it was only similar in appearance, he was able to reach this level after just watching it once. This clearly showed that the talent of this elf might be stronger than that of his bear.

"Whoosh..."

On the other side, the two elves stopped temporarily and gasped for breath. The one who had been expressionless was the bear who finally showed injuries on his body.

"Snapped!"

Then there was a crisp sound, and one of the beads hanging on the bear's neck suddenly shattered.

"Isn't this going to make you accompany me..."

Lin Shi touched his nose and looked at the nameless monk, but the other party didn't seem to care and instead smiled at him.

"Don't worry, Master Wuming. I will compensate you after the battle."

But even so, Lin Shi still spoke politely.

"No need."

Wuming smiled gently and shook his head, then looked at the bear in uniform on the battlefield.

"You are very powerful, little donor, but... the battle should end now."

As soon as Wuming finished speaking, Lin Shi saw the body of the bear on the battlefield suddenly change. Its body instantly became tall, its muscles became smooth and strong, its eyes turned red, and its powerful force caused cracks to appear on the ground beneath its feet.

"what is this?"

Lin Shi looked at this scene in amazement. The bear in front of him really broke a lot of Lin Shi’s cognition. It was okay for him to be proficient in martial arts, but how could he have a second form?

"Whoosh!"

The next second, the bear with red light flashing in his eyes disappeared instantly, and appeared in front of the bear apprentice like a gust of wind, and then punched him hard.

Almost subconsciously, Apprentice Bear used the skill of seeing through, and the fighting spirit in his body gushed out and gathered in front of him to resist the attack. But even so, facing the terrifying attack of the Wearing Bear, Apprentice Bear was still pushed far away, and he finally managed to stand firm.

"So strong..."

Lin Shi was a little dazed, while on the other side, the battle between the bear apprentice and the bear in clothing had entered a white-hot stage. On one side was a martial arts genius blessed by the power of legend, and on the other side was a muscular monster with a terrifying physique and rich experience. The two elves were in a stalemate for a while.

……

A golden leaf slowly fell and landed on the bear disciple who was lying on the ground panting. The light of the setting sun enveloped the entire Shaolin Temple like a golden veil.

"Phew, we lost."

Reaching out to take the fallen leaves off Apprentice Bear's body, Lin Shi took a deep breath and smiled at the nameless monk and said.

Lin Shi, who had not lost for a long time, felt unexpectedly calm. He knew very well that as a trainer, it was impossible not to experience failure, and this failure came at the right time. It was beneficial for his bear apprentice to encounter setbacks when his confidence was infinitely inflated.

"No, in fact, you should have seen that the real strength of Wearing Bear is not at the level of a gym leader. When the Buddhist beads broke, this battle was actually not fair. At this time, Wearing Bear and I were not as good as you."

The nameless monk shook his head and said sincerely.

"Ah."

Listening to his words, Lin Shi smiled bitterly and shook his head.

He and his bear apprentice really lost this time, not in terms of strength and level, but in terms of martial arts ability, body manipulation and technical mentality. This clothed bear was almost perfect from every angle.

Lin Shi really thinks that the nameless monk, the bear in clothing, is a crossover from the anime Alola...

However, Lin Shi is confident that in the future, his bear apprentice will become as strong as it, no, even stronger than it!

"Master Lin, you are going to participate in the Minion Arena before the New Year, right?"

Just as Lin Shi was still thinking about the battle just now, the nameless monk suddenly laughed and asked, which surprised Lin Shi a little.

The Minion Arena is a special elf event that takes place in a place called Minion Hill in the Lion City Secret Territory in the North China region.

The Lion City Secret Realm is a strange secret realm, in which live a large number of high-quality elves, among which fighting-type elves account for the vast majority. According to the alliance's investigation, it seems that the special environment of the secret realm is very suitable for the development of fighting-type elves.

In the central area of the secret realm, there is a high mountain called the Hill of Minions. Every once in a while, all the powerful elves in the entire secret realm will approach this place on their own and start a melee.

The initial class is divided into levels, and you have to fight your way up until you become the only elf standing at the top. This strongest elf in the entire secret realm will also receive the gift of Autumn of Claws, granting it powerful striking and fighting power!

That’s right, this is the opportunity that the alliance said would give Lin Shi the chance to gain the power of nature…

Lin Shi was confused by the monk Wuming's words. He didn't know how the monk knew about his next trip. Seeing Lin Shi's confusion, Wuming chanted a Buddhist name and said:

"Deng Tianxing and I are old friends. He told me these things. Don't worry about it, young donor."

"Old Deng?" Lin Shi grinned.

That makes sense!

Moreover, he now felt that his opponent this time was the nameless monk, and it was very likely arranged by the other party. After all, he just said that they were old friends...

"Yes, I am going. This natural force is very important to me."

Lin Shi nodded and answered frankly. The name of this natural force was so explicit. He suspected that he had something to do with Master Wudao Xiong.

"Is that so... Then I have a suggestion."

Wuming smiled gently.

"As far as I know, it will take some time for the Minion Arena to open. If you don't mind, you can stay in the temple during this time, calm down, and learn martial arts."

"Stay in the temple?"

Lin Shi had indeed not expected Wuming's suggestion. He didn't know whether this was also deliberately arranged by Deng Tianxing.

but……

This suggestion is quite good. If the bear apprentice can fight with the clothed bear a few more times during this period, it will definitely be of great benefit to the bear apprentice.

"Haha, don't worry, benefactor. I just want you to live here for a while. I don't really want you to be a monk." Seeing that Lin Shi did not agree immediately, the nameless monk continued.

"Also, I just saw that the donor seemed very interested in the 72 unique skills in our temple. We can exchange some ideas about these later."

Wuming's words made Lin Shi's eyes light up. He still remembered the powerful effect of the fusion of the bear's own skills and Shaolin martial arts. If he could learn it, then the bear apprentice's strength would definitely be improved to a higher level.

Thinking of this, Lin Shi no longer hesitated and a smile appeared on his face.

"Well... I'm sorry to bother you during this time..."
