"This Leafeon..."
During a lull in Su Hao's conversation with the Swords of Justice, Yegor's gaze naturally fell on the Leafeon standing quietly at Su Hao's side.
What surprised him was—
After merely some time apart, this Leafeon had already advanced to mid-Champion Level!
And if that unprecedented, one-of-a-kind further evolved form were included, Leafeon had likely already reached the upper limits of Champion Level.
That meant that not only would Keldeo, who kept shouting about catching up to Leafeon, stand no chance, but even his own Beartic would be no match for this Leafeon!
Damn it, just how did this man raise Pokémon?
First there was Diancie, which had defeated the Guardian Deity Tapu Koko head-on during the semifinals livestream and advanced to Class Two Legendary, and now there was this Leafeon.
Even in the enormous North Bear Alliance, the registered Master Level Pokémon could be counted on both hands. Was this guy planning to raise multiple Master Level Pokémon!?
Just as Yegor was wallowing in shock by himself, Su Hao's negotiations with the three Swords of Justice entered their final stage.
"A purely... swordsmanship-based contest?"
Cobalion pondered for a moment, but did not find the request unreasonable.
Rather, it could tell Su Hao's intentions from Leafeon's Energy Level.
Since it could not gain the upper hand in strength for the time being, it would be better to simply compete in skill and close the gap.
In other words, Su Hao clearly intended for Leafeon to advance to Master Level through its peerless swordsmanship... That was quite an ambition, but considering certain matters, it was also perfectly reasonable.
Not to mention the swordsmanship it had used to completely suppress Keldeo during the livestream, its merit in personally delivering the final blow to the Darkest Day disaster alone made it
