The yellow-haired girl in front of her, wearing a helmet and protective gear, glided over lightly on roller skates, with a single ponytail swaying behind her head and a cheerful smile on her face.

"Hey, master!"

Korni slid in front of Lu Ye and Zi Luolan, stopped the roller skates, and grinned:

"Long time no see!"

Lu Ye nodded and said: "The last time was at the P1 Fighting Conference in Kanto."

"In the end, it was Caidou who won the championship."

Korni recalled the P1 Fighting Conference with fire in her eyes.

"Next time I see her...I will never lose again!"

"It seems that you already have the confidence of a super evolved messenger."

Lu Ye looked at Korni's keystone glove and said.

"Of course~" Korni puffed out her chest and said with her hands on her hips: "The relationship between Lucario and I has become more harmonious~"

"Speaking of which, I was shocked when I saw you, Master, and I was still wondering if it was you." Korni said, "Then Lucario sensed your waveguide, and I came up to say hello.

."

"I didn't expect that," Lu Ye sighed, "I would meet so many gym leaders during my trip..."

Counting Chucklo, Violet, and Korni, he is already the third gym owner in this battle castle.

This is not a gathering of elites, this is clearly a meeting of carrots. (Mistake)

On this trip, don’t worry about the Super Evolutionary Stone...if you don’t get the badge, it will be considered a success!

Korni: "Master, are you also participating in the ranking battle against the castle?"

Lu Ye nodded.

"In that case, why not have a battle with me?"

Korni put one hand on her hip, clenching her fist confidently, and her glove was inlaid with a clear keystone.

"Lucario and I can't wait to fight Blastoise!"

Lu Ye looked at Korni and felt emotional when he saw that she didn't seem to be joking.

It's not that he's avoiding fighting...it's mainly because he's afraid of leaving a psychological shadow on his apprentice.

"This trip is to train young Kiras." Lu Ye said, "I'm afraid your expectations will be disappointed."

"Eh..."

Korni sighed regretfully, her frustration fleeting, raised a hearty smile, and invited:

"In that case, master, are you coming to Salo City as a guest? I can take you to the top of the Refining Tower to see the scenery. It is very, very beautiful!"

Lu Ye: "Tower of Refining? There will be a chance, but it will take a while."

Of course Korni knew that the master had more important things to do.

For example, train Pokémon, challenge a strong person like Chi-senpai, and have an honest duel.

'I must also take my master as an example.'

Korni quietly clenched her small fists, suddenly startled, reached into her shoulder bag, and took out the 'glove-shaped' combat badge.

"Master, this is for you, you're welcome!" Korni said with a hearty smile.

Originally, during the P1 Fighting Conference, this badge should have been handed over to the master.

But I hadn't become the museum owner at that time... Now, I can finally do it myself!

Lu Ye looked at the shining badge in Korni's palm and couldn't help but be startled:

"Why did you suddenly give me the badge?"

"Because grandpa and I have already recognized you!" Korni said confidently: "If you accept it, you won't need to make a special trip to the Salo Gym."

Lu Ye: "Believe me, I will never come to Salo Gym."

Korni: "But Geng Gui knows it. Master, you have to consider Geng Gui's wishes~"

"Kou Jie~" Hearing the sound, the little fat man jumped out of Lu Ye's shadow, grinned and shook hands with Korni.

"I'll leave this badge to you, Gengar-chan~" Korni said with a smile.

"Kou Jie!" Geng Gui nodded solemnly.

Immediately, Gengar raised his badge high, and the metal surface flashed with light!

[Ding! "Battle Badge" has been detected, and the mission progress is being updated! ]

[Task progress has been updated!]

[Task progress: (2/8)]

It happened too suddenly.

Until a familiar yet unfamiliar sound sounded in my ears.

Lu Ye pursed his lips, feeling complicated.

Now that the badges are given in person, there is no need to fight. Is it so straightforward?

Looking at Korni's cheerful smiling face, Lu Ye didn't take out his notebook.

‘Gherkin’ is such a straightforward and optimistic single-threaded creature.

Giving badges is just a way for her to express her recognition to the trainer.

Lu Ye subconsciously looked around. The well-dressed trainers in the hall were talking in twos and threes. Everyone looked like the 'Master of Carlos Hall'.

"How many gym owners will participate in today's challenge?" Lu Ye asked Korni.

Korni blinked and said: "About four...what's the matter, master?"

Lu Ye's breathing was stagnant, and his eyesight turned dark.

Let’s take a trip to the battle castle together, and we’re almost halfway through the mission?

no.

Change your goals.

It counts as success if you get less than two badges!

**

After giving the "Battle Badge" to Teacher Lu.

Korni was roller skating and looking for a suitable challenger in the hall.

Amidst the noise of roller skating, Lu Ye raised his head and looked up at the ceiling. Chucklo, with a stern and dark face, was still hanging on the beam with one arm.

"This guy..." Lu Ye pondered, "Is he mentally ill?"

I've been hanging here for half an hour. Rock climbing is not like this, but more like air-dried bacon.

However, in the Pokémon world, most trainers have special physiques, and it is normal for one or two weirdos to appear among the gym owners.

Violet came over with two glasses of champagne, handed one to Lu Ye, and said slightly curiously:

"Teacher Lu, the master of Kerni Hall, are you your apprentice?"

Korni is the famous envoy of super evolution in this castle. She is also a "Earl" and her strength should not be underestimated.

Lu Ye thanked him and took it, and said in a deep voice:

"It happened a year ago, and she was not the owner of the museum at that time."

Calculating it this way, as a teacher, I really have quite a few apprentices.

Korni, Caido, Xiaozhi, Gladion, Manchong...

Caidou is the fighter with the most kindness and perseverance among them.

When it comes to the maturity of mind, Xiaozhi is still much inferior to Caido.

As for Manchong, he is the student that Teacher Lu pays the most attention to.

Rather than those dazzling geniuses, Manchong seems to be constantly chasing their backs.

Manchong doesn't ask for a special edition illustrated book, even if he deserves it.

Being able to fight Ruby, or help those dazzling geniuses, is quite satisfying.

"I wonder what happened to Manchong after he returned to Fengyuan."

Lu Ye took a sip of champagne and fell into deep thought.

"That child is actually not inferior to others..."
