Goals For The Next Stage

At the same time.

"I've finally reached Senior level." Looking at Combusken sleeping under the blanket, Bruce displayed a satisfied smile on his face.

Level: Lv20 (Senior level)]

Not only did he learn several new skills, but he also managed to advance to Senior level. This is the result of Combusken's training this week. He learns new skills in the morning, goes to the battle club in the afternoon, and gets good rest at night. Every day is very rewarding, and his strength has been steadily improving.

Although Beldum cannot learn new skills, its level has also reached 16, bringing it one step closer to evolving into Metag.

Bruce floated under the ceiling in confusion, secretly thinking about the next training plan.

"Now that the training goals for phase two are complete, it's time to move on to the next training phase."

The first stage is to toughen up your physique and lay a solid foundation, and the second stage is to increase your level and combat experience through battles. As for the third stage... it goes wild!

Since the vacation lasted a month and a half, Bruce made a training plan for each stage from the start and proceeded with goals and plans. Originally, the vacation was supposed to last two months, but all the universities in Avalon will start half a month early. It is said that all first-year students must undergo some kind of field military training.

"Calculating the time, the admission letter should arrive soon, right?" Bruce murmured to himself. The original owner is indeed an outstanding student with incredible grades. After all, the self-evaluation score is close to the total score, something that ordinary people cannot achieve.

Although Metropolis University is the best university in Avalon, with the original owner's results, there is a high chance it will be safe. (This time to revive the glory of Metropolis University.) Confusing thoughts crossed his mind one by one, and Bruce began to think about serious matters.

"Due to the particularity of the Pokemon world, various Pokemon live in the wild. The further you are from the city, the greater the number of Pokemon and the stronger their power."

"Also, I don't know when the Secret Pokemon Realm appeared in this world."

The source of the Secret Pokemon Realm can no longer be explored. We only know it is a special space that exists far from the blue star, and its area can be large or small. According to Bruce's understanding, the large ones are comparable to a country, and the small ones are similar to ordinary cities.

The main thing is that to this day, the appearance of Pokemon Rifts has not stopped. Each time a secret realm appears, it inevitably attracts nearby Trainers to it.

There are various Pokemon inhabiting the Secret Pokemon Realm, which contain many valuable resources and become targets for Trainers. But for some reason, most Pokemon that inhabit the secret realm become extremely irritable, aggressive, and destructive; even normally docile Pokemon are no exception.

According to Pokemon experts, this is typical acclimatization.

"With my current strength, even entering the lowest-level secret realm is still dangerous," Bruce thought to himself. Therefore, his goal from the beginning was to be close to the mountainous area of Fairbay city.

Since it is closer to the urban area, the strength of the Pokemon living here is relatively low, and the Senior-level Combusken can handle it completely.

"But my greatest protection... is myself," Bruce murmured to himself with blue eyes.

After exercising his Psychic according to what his father told him, he could clearly feel that the Psychic in his body was much stronger than at first, and he could already use Flying Confusion.

Well, in any case, Beldum's Psychic is completely incapable of competing with his own.

Bruce's next goal... is to Teleport!

—The humanoid Pokemon is actually me... —he secretly murmured.

In short, with his current competitive condition and Combusken's terrifying combat power, he could completely stroll in the mountains near Fairbay city.

"If you want to venture into the wild alone, you need to have a senior trainer certificate."

"Well, tomorrow morning I'll get the senior trainer certification, and in the afternoon, I'll buy equipment for outdoor activities."

Last week, Bruce had completed the ordinary trainer certification. The verification method is very simple: defeat a Pokemon that has just reached the normal level. Combusken took ten seconds and decisively defeated it.

With many thoughts in mind, Bruce yawned and used Confusion to lie down on the big, soft bed, surrounded by an endless drowsiness like a tide.

"Good night."

…

The next day,

Bruce got up early in the morning and, after a quick breakfast, was ready to leave home.

"Aren't you going to the gym with me?" William was still calmly eating breakfast, and when he saw Bruce's movements, he raised his voice in doubt.

"No, I'm going to the Pokemon Association now," Bruce replied.

"What are you doing there?" William asked after taking a sip of soy milk.

"Certified Senior Trainer."

"I'm going first."

With that, Bruce closed the door, and his figure disappeared.

"Cough, cough."

However, after hearing the previous sentence, William spat out a mouthful of soy milk, spilling it all over the table.

"What did he say?"

"Senior Trainer Certification?"

William didn't even think about cleaning it up, but instead asked Emma, who was slowly peeling eggs.

Emma looked up, glanced slightly at William, and said, "I thought you had already noticed that Combusken has reached Senior level."

William: "???"

"As for what happened last night, it seems you've been too busy with work lately, so you haven't noticed this change," Emma continued.

William suddenly fell silent and then looked at Emma, whose face was calm, and then at the spilled soy milk on the table. For a moment, he didn't know whether to be too surprised or whether Emma was too calm.

But that's Senior level!!!

How long did it take Bruce to get Torchic? Three weeks?

He evolved Torchic into Combusken in three weeks and had Senior-level strength. Back then, I was nowhere near that strong, right?

Maybe due to a woman's sixth sense picking up on William's thoughts, Emma set the egg down in her hand and slowly said, "He has been working very hard these days; I can see that."

"Also, Combusken's rating is very good. Maybe what I said was too conservative. It might even be a championship-level rating."

"Championship-level rating..." William narrowed his eyes and murmured quietly.

"Yes." Emma nodded slightly and continued, "During this time, Bruce's personality has changed a lot, and many smiles have appeared on his face."

"He works hard every day to improve the Pokemon's strength and never relaxes."

"The old man would be very happy if he knew."

"Bruce might really be the hope for the Bayne family to move forward."
