"What the hell?!"

"There really is one!!!"

"Lu Chen is awesome! (voice cracks)!"

Trainers and researchers in the vicinity saw Milotic carrying out the Ice Stone Ore.

They all clapped and cheered with joy!

No one could have imagined that Lu Chen, having only been here for a few days, would actually be able to foresee the situation at the bottom of the lake.

This discovery was made.

This means that their previous research was not entirely in vain, and they were also able to solve the problem of the lake freezing over for no apparent reason.

The main research focus going forward will be on the lakebed and how to mine the ice stone veins.

These are naturally not things that Lu Chen needs to worry about.

As for another guess...

The icy lake can greatly increase the strength of Pokémon that evolve within it...

Quite a few people have been making a fuss these past two days.

After all that effort, the evolved Pokémon, while having a certain power boost compared to normal evolution, was still nothing compared to Cloyster.

But as long as it works, these people are clearly not giving up.

"Ah, if only the frozen lake were a little closer."

On the eve of departure.

Lu Chen looked at the icy lake with a hint of regret.

Even the ace Pokémon of a Water-type Pokémon Master couldn't dive to the bottom, so there's no doubt this is a training holy land. But the problem is that Lu Chen can't stay here for long.

"However, we've gained quite a lot. Unless we can get the Spiny Shell to master the purification water in the Ice Lake, there's not much point in staying here for a long time. Other training methods can replace the effects of the Ice Lake, it's just a bit more expensive."

Lu Chen looked at the four Poké Balls on his wrist.

It's time to go back to school. The end of the year is approaching, final exams are about to begin, and there's also the Pokémon League auction he's been looking forward to.

as well as……

Charizard eagerly awaited the second annual Lu Chen Tournament, a testament to its strength and determination to prove it wasn't at the bottom of the pack.

……

"Got to go?"

"Yes, Sister Chenxi, Sister Jiangyu, thank you for taking care of me during this time. After all, I still have to go back to school for exams."

Lu Chen stood not far from the icy lake, at the waiting area for the supplies team that was about to depart.

in front of you.

Xiang Chenxi and Jiang Yu stared at him with smiles on their faces.

“That’s right. The Northern Union University will probably be starting its final exams soon. You’re one of our Twelve Earthly Branches’ reserve students, so you absolutely can’t fail!” Xiang Chenxi smiled, stepped forward, and patted Lu Chen’s shoulder on tiptoe.

"You're overthinking it. With Lu Chen's current abilities, which teacher would dare fail him?" Jiang Yu rolled her eyes, shook her head helplessly, and smiled...

"However, I remember that the inter-university selection process will begin next spring, so Lu Chen, you'd better do your best!"

"Yes, once the school selections are over, it'll be the national university league. If the secret realm still isn't open by this time next year... I'm afraid the professional league will have to start preliminary registration as well."

Listening to the various competitions the two of them were talking about.

Lu Chen was also completely baffled.

Given his current abilities, it would be unfair for him to participate in the university league, if not bully others.

However, if he were to participate in professional leagues or similar events, his eligibility to compete would be questionable.

We haven't even assembled a full team of six Pokémon yet.

"Please forgive me, sisters." Lu Chen clasped his hands together and gave a bitter smile.

"We don't even have a full-strength squad yet, isn't it a bit premature to say that?"

“That’s true, but what was Captain Guo’s quote again?” Xiang Chenxi tilted her head and thought for a moment, then squinted and imitated Guo Wenlong, saying, “Time is tight and the task is heavy, comrades must seize every moment to work hard!”

"Pfft... Alright, they're getting impatient over there. Little Lu Chen, hurry up and go, or I'm afraid Chenxi will keep talking to you all day."

"Oh right, hurry up, it's still a long way from here to Shengjing. Don't forget to call when you get there."

Done.

The three of them said their final goodbyes.

Apart from the supply team, Lu Chen left with the others.

Also present were Qiao Kexin and Wu Xue, two medical staff members, who were only there to provide emergency assistance.

Now that the preliminary exploration of the 3.9-meter-deep ice lake has been completed, naturally there won't be a need for so many medical staff.

Since they were still students, they were simply allowed to go back with Lu Chen.

Watching the convoy gradually disappear into the vast expanse of white snow.

Xiang Chenxi couldn't help but sigh.

"What? You're reluctant to part with it?" Jiang Yu smiled gently, her eyes like water.

"Sister Yu, how long do you think this situation will last?"

Xiang Chenxi turned around and stared blankly at the towering snow-capped mountain.

"Who knows..."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yu's expression changed instantly, and she sighed softly as she looked at the white mountain range.

"Guo Wenlong and his team discovered a similar phenomenon in the Youshan Mountains; now we can probably only wait..."

"Wait? How much longer?"

"Sigh, I don't know, but we need to be prepared...we might be facing the worst crisis in a century."

Chapter 485 The Second Lu Chen Conference! (Please Subscribe)

After a long journey of three days and two nights.

Lu Chen, Qiao Kexin, and Wu Xue finally returned to the Northern United University.

"I will compile my thoughts on the Life Drop skill moves and send them to you."

The three were saying goodbye.

Wu Xue raised her head and said to Lu Chen.

Her expression returned to its usual haughty, swan-like demeanor.

"Okay, I'll be going now."

After saying a few words, Lu Chen turned around and left without the slightest hesitation.

"This guy……!"

Staring at Lu Chen, who turned and left without hesitation, Wu Xue gritted her two little tiger teeth.

"Xiaoxue, let's go too."

Qiao Kexin glanced at Lu Chen's departing figure, then at Wu Xue's proud and unwilling-to-admit look.

Suddenly.

She seemed to understand something, and her tired and pale face was suddenly flushed with a blush.

Cold-faced male god vs. arrogant princess...

This is so good!!!

……

The moment I got back to my dorm.

Lu Chen immediately pounced on the bed.

He stretched out comfortably.

At the same time, all the spirits were released.

"Hiss~!"

"Oooh!"

"Roar!!"

"Huh?"

Lu Chen looked at the four elves and smiled, saying:

"As you all probably know, we're going to hold an... intra-team friendly match."

Lu Chen repeated his idea for the team's internal competition to the four Pokémon once again.

Although only Beedrill showed any interest in trying.

But the other elves also expressed some anticipation.

Charizard, in particular, glanced at Cloyster without making a sound.

"However, we're not in a rush. You've all gained a lot during your time away, so there will be a period of training to digest and adapt. Therefore..."

"To give you a general understanding of each other's abilities and to help you have clear goals to improve your skills, now it's time for each of you to demonstrate the results of your training over this period."

Lu Chen said with a grin.

Four elves.

Sometimes they don't train together, so they probably don't know each other's strengths very well.

Especially Cloyster, which just evolved, is already showing signs of rebellion.

Lu Chen planned to let the spiny clam give it a little stimulation!
