Spirit Dimension: Tricking Groudon at the Start Chapter 8

The Torchic spotted Song Yuan and his group and immediately became wary.

"Jimo jimo!"

"Let's begin. You can all come at me at once."

This was a side quest reward delivered right to his doorstep—he absolutely couldn't miss it.

But afraid these few might not dare, Su Yi directly told them to attack together.

A once-evolved Frogadier with Purple Qualification was stronger at the same level than other qualified Pokémon. And at this point in time, having one's Pokémon evolve just upon stepping into the Spirit Primal Forest was extremely rare.

Song Yuan originally hadn't planned to make a move, but hearing Su Yi actively invite them all to attack, they suddenly found it interesting.

They exchanged glances, and the Pokeballs appearing in their hands signaled their response.

"In that case, let's see just how impressive you are, buddy."

Song Yuan brought out his Spinarak, while his three lackeys also pulled out their Pokeballs and summoned their starter Pokémon.

"Poochyena!"

"Bidoof!"

"Thievul!"

The three lackeys had a Dark-type Poochyena and Thievul, and a Normal-type Bidoof.

All were Green Excellent Qualification.

As for Song Yuan himself, he called out his Bug and Poison-type Spinarak.

"Frogadier, Torchic, both of you attack together. Frogadier, use Smokescreen. Torchic, use Ember on the smokescreen."

"Frog!"

"Jimo!"

Torchic had just recovered some stamina and could fight again.

Smokescreen was something Su Yi had just learned from checking Frogadier's info—it was a move Frogadier had learned upon evolving.

The sudden smokescreen engulfed Thievul, Bidoof, and Poochyena, blocking their vision.

Torchic's Ember shot directly into the smokescreen, spreading throughout it and rapidly raising its temperature!

"Bidoof!"

"Arf!"

"Awoo!"

Bidoof, Thievul, and Poochyena were all at level 7, not high-leveled, with weak stamina. The smokescreen's high heat immediately injured all three.

The three lackeys' expressions changed. A combined move?

That was too strong!

Only Song Yuan's Spinarak remained unharmed.

Song Yuan made a snap decision. The battle had already started—he had to capture the leader first.

"Spinarak, use String Shot on Frogadier!"

If he could bind Frogadier, Song Yuan would immediately retreat with his people.

He didn't want Spinarak to get hurt. Injuring a Pokémon at the very start of the first day of the trial was undoubtedly a headache.

It could directly affect his final trial results.

"Torchic, make it taste your Ember again!"

"Frogadier, go finish off the other three Pokémon."

"Jimo!"

"Frog!"

Though Torchic and Frogadier were cooperating for the first time, their teamwork was decent—they divided the work.

Frogadier finished off the other three Pokémon.

Torchic used Ember again, directly burning the String Shot heading toward Frogadier.

Song Yuan's heart went blank. The smokescreen was gradually fading, and the other three Pokémon were injured, unable to use any moves.

They were directly KO'd by Frogadier in succession, collapsing and losing battle capability.

As for Spinarak, its spider silk was burned, and it was afraid of Fire-type moves, so it cowered and hesitated to advance.

"One more time, Ember!"

Spinarak collapsed.

[Ding! Congratulations, host. Frogadier and Torchic have defeated Bidoof, Thievul, Poochyena, and Spinarak, earning a large amount of Battle Experience!]

[Ding! Congratulations, host. Frogadier's level has increased to Lv.18, and Torchic's level has increased to Lv.14!]

[Ding! Congratulations, host. You have successfully battled three trainers. Side Quest 5 completed. Rewards distributed. Roulette Draw Chance +1. Current draw chances: 3!]

[Ding! Congratulations, host, on achieving three consecutive victories and completing Side Quest 6. Rewards have been issued. You have obtained a Mysterious Item, which has been automatically stored in your Spatial Storage. Please check it yourself.]

[Ding! Congratulations, host, on the Battle Drop Function. You have obtained dropped Pokeballs ×3 and dropped Gold Coins ×130,000!]

130,000 Gold Coins?

This Battle Drop Function might as well be called the Battle Copy Function.

Su Yi guessed inwardly that these 130,000 Gold Coins probably came from that leading trainer.

The Pokeballs were just the most ordinary kind, likely from those three lackeys.

Not bad, not bad!

The quest had just refreshed not long ago, and now all the rewards were in hand.

Su Yi glanced at Song Yuan and the others, not bothering to make things difficult for them.

He turned and left with his Frogadier and Torchic.

Leaving Song Yuan and his three lackeys scrambling on the spot, pulling Recovery Potions and Burn Heals from their backpacks to feed their Pokémon.

Tears without end—who knew they'd run into such a ruthless person...

Su Yi, meanwhile, found a relatively secluded spot.

The quest was about to refresh, and then he had to do the Roulette Draw!

Three chances—what would he get?

"Frogadier, Torchic, you both performed really well. Keep cooperating like this in the future, and we'll grow stronger together."

Su Yi found a cave.

From his observation, this cave should be unoccupied by any wild Pokémon.

The footprints inside were all very old, already dried up.

"Frog!"

"Chimo!"

Torchic and Frogadier exchanged glances, then both little ones actively rubbed against Su Yi's pant leg.

"Alright, next, let's have Torchic evolve once. Then we still need to recruit new partners. You two keep an eye on the surroundings and don't let any wild Pokémon disturb me."

Su Yi encouraged the two, then mentally communicated with the system.

Checking, sure enough, the quest had refreshed.

[Ding! Side Quest 7 has been released. Please complete the expansion of your Spirit Team—possess three Spirits (excluding Groudon). Quest reward: One Roulette Draw Chance!]

[Ding! Side Quest 8 has been released. Please train three Spirits to reach Lv. 20. Quest reward: One Roulette Draw Chance!]

[Ding! Side Quest 9 has been released. Please continue to achieve ten Spirit Battle victories (0/10). Quest reward: Mysterious Fishing Rod!]

Three more side quests.

Well, let's do the draw first.

"System, I want to do the Roulette Draw."

He silently chanted in his mind.

[Ding! One draw chance deducted. Roulette Draw starting...]

The system's prompt sounded, and soon, a virtual screen appeared before Su Yi's eyes.

On the screen was a large roulette wheel.

The areas around the roulette wheel were all dim, divided into several sections.

A section with the image of Gold Coins.

A section with the image of a card.

A section with the image of a scroll.

And one section with three question marks.

In the center was a pointer.

The pointer had already started spinning.

Su Yi's gaze swept back and forth across the four sections.

The Gold Coins section was undoubtedly dismissed by Su Yi first.

When did he ever lack Gold Coins?

Just from battling those trainers, he'd already obtained 130,000 Gold Coins.

Without a doubt, the card and scroll should be good stuff.

As for the three question marks section, there was no telling.

The pointer spun, its speed gradually slowing.

It circled back and forth within the four sections.

Just as it was about to stop.

"Not Gold Coins, not Gold Coins, don't give me Gold Coins!"

Amid the fervent calls, finally, the pointer passed over the Gold Coins area.

At the very end, it landed on a dim card.

The pointer stopped, and the dim card lit up.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained a Qualification Upgrade Card ×1!]

Qualification Upgrade Card description: Designate any one spirit, and upon successful use, the qualification will be upgraded by one tier!

Note: A spirit's qualification can only be upgraded once.

"Phew, a good item!"

Su Yi was overjoyed. He knew that a spirit's qualification was generally fixed under normal circumstances!

If it was born with White Qualification, then White Qualification it would stay.

If it was born with Blue, then it would never become another qualification.

But this Qualification Upgrade Card, without a doubt, allowed a spirit to change its own fate.

"System, continue the draw!"

Su Yi was growing a bit excited.

What good thing would come next?
