091 The Purpose of Master Wu! A Hidden Secret (Fourth Chapter)

Master Wu didn't immediately reveal his purpose. Instead, he engaged Qin Yun in casual conversation, hoping to extract information without being too obvious.

However, as their discussion progressed, Master Wu noticed something was amiss.

Wasn't he supposed to be the one gathering information?

Yet somehow, instead of learning about Qin Yun, he had unwittingly divulged many of his own secrets.

Master Wu was stunned. He looked at Qin Yun, whose expression carried a knowing smile. His face turned slightly red in embarrassment.

"This kid is just a high school student, but he's as cunning as an old fox!"

Master Wu sighed inwardly. He had never underestimated Qin Yun, but now he regarded him even more highly.

"You're a monster, kid," Master Wu finally said, shaking his head.

Qin Yun responded with a nonchalant shrug. "Children from poor families learn to be independent early."

Master Wu chuckled. "I see, but let's get to the point. I'll be direct with you now."

Qin Yun had already pieced together Master Wu's intentions from their conversation, but he let him continue.

"No need, I already have a rough idea," Qin Yun said.

"No, just listen." Master Wu's tone turned serious.

"You have a lot of talent, as much as—or maybe even more than—Norman did in his youth," Master Wu said, referencing Petalburg's formidable Gym Leader. "But the world is vast, and while Norman is exceptional, there are still many trainers out there who surpass him."

"The Champions of each region, for example, are on a whole different level. Behind every one of them stands an immensely powerful organization or financial backer."

Qin Yun nodded. He was aware of this. Champions like Steven Stone, Cynthia, and Lance weren't just powerful trainers—they had strong familial or organizational support.

Even Steven, whose father, Joseph Stone, was the president of Devon Corporation, had to rely on more than just family wealth. The Pokémon world was deeply interconnected, and elite trainers required significant backing to keep up with the competition.

"If you think you'll make it to the top without resources, you're dreaming," Master Wu continued. "My offer can help you without interfering with your independence."

Qin Yun remained skeptical. He disliked the idea of being tied down by contracts and obligations. His system already granted him immense resources, making external investment unnecessary.

"Go ahead, I'm listening," Qin Yun said, humoring him.

Master Wu leaned forward. "Do you know what it means to be a professional-level trainer?"

Qin Yun stayed silent, allowing him to explain.

"Becoming an elite-level trainer is simple. If you have three Pokémon at the elite level, you can qualify without taking any special exam," Master Wu said.

Qin Yun suddenly recalled that he could already apply for elite-level status. He also wondered if his system would grant a new level-up bonus upon achieving that rank.

"But the professional level is different. The difficulty increases with age. Do you know why?"

Qin Yun frowned slightly. "Why?"

"Because professional-level trainers are eligible to enter Uncharted Spaces—ancient, mysterious zones full of rare Pokémon and powerful relics. But they are also incredibly dangerous," Master Wu said gravely.

Qin Yun's interest was piqued.

"Possessing professional-level strength is merely the minimum requirement. Even then, many who enter never return."

"Then why do people risk it?"

"Because the rewards are beyond imagination. The allocation of entry slots is strictly controlled by the Pokémon League. I can't disclose all the details, but every Elite Four member and Champion has entered these spaces at some point."

Qin Yun's eyes narrowed. This confirmed his suspicions—there was much more to the Pokémon world than what the public saw.

"So, what does this have to do with your investment?" Qin Yun asked.

Master Wu's eyes gleamed—he had finally captured Qin Yun's full attention.

"It's simple," he said. "There are different tiers of Uncharted Spaces. Most trainers only get access to low-tier ones, where the rewards are minimal. But high-level spaces… that's where the true treasures lie."

Qin Yun smirked. "I've heard that anyone can enter Uncharted Spaces if they find one."

Master Wu laughed. "You're talking about the ordinary ones. Professional trainers have long plundered those dry. If you want real power, you need access to restricted spaces, and that requires special permits."

"Are you offering me one of these slots?"

"Exactly." Master Wu nodded. "I believe you'll reach professional rank in less than three years. My investment in you is simple—I'll help you obtain entry into a restricted Uncharted Space and provide early financial backing to accelerate your growth."

Qin Yun raised an eyebrow. Wasn't this just an empty promise?

Master Wu had offered nothing tangible—only future opportunities based on speculation.

Sensing Qin Yun's skepticism, Master Wu added, "I can personally sponsor you with 20 million Pokémon dollars to start."

"Not interested," Qin Yun rejected immediately. 20 million was a significant amount for most trainers, but to him, it was pocket change.

Master Wu was momentarily stunned. He had expected at least some hesitation.

"If that's all, then—"

"Wait!" Master Wu interrupted. His eyes darkened. "There's one more condition to my offer."

Qin Yun remained silent, waiting.

Master Wu exhaled deeply, then said, "When you reach Elite Four level, I want you to kill someone for me."

Qin Yun's expression turned cold.

"This is a society ruled by law. Are you asking me to commit murder?"

Master Wu quickly shook his head. "No, no. The person I want you to eliminate is a high-ranking Water Fleet member. They're classified as criminals by the Pokémon League. Legally, taking them down is no different from defeating a rogue Pokémon."

Qin Yun's eyes sharpened. The Water Fleet was one of the deadliest organizations in Hoenn, alongside Team Magma.

Their leader, Archie, was rumored to be as strong as a Champion, wielding legendary Pokémon to further his group's ambitions.

If Master Wu had a personal grudge against the Water Fleet, it meant he had suffered at their hands before.

Qin Yun leaned back and considered the offer. A quasi-legendary Pokémon as payment...

Quasi-legendaries, like Salamence, Metagross, and Garchomp, were immensely rare and powerful. Every one of them had perfect potential, with guaranteed stat growth upon evolution.

Getting one wasn't just about catching it—many species had been driven to near extinction in the wild, making them nearly impossible to find.

"You'll provide a quasi-legendary Pokémon if I do this?" Qin Yun asked.

Master Wu nodded. "Yes. And I can ensure it has top-tier genetics and battle potential."

Qin Yun's mind raced. This was an opportunity, but also a potential trap.

The Water Fleet wasn't to be underestimated. Even the Pokémon League struggled to take them down. If they had a target strong enough to warrant Master Wu's hatred, it meant they were a significant threat.

Qin Yun exhaled slowly. This world had far more layers than he initially thought.
