Chapter 51

I wonder what the third-level training, which already pushed the Shinx to its limit, will be like for the Combusken.

"Go for it, Combusken."

After saying this, Su Yu clicked the start button.

Once again, the rubber balls flew out like arrows.

A moment of carelessness would result in being hit by a rubber ball.

Facing the third-level speed of the rubber balls, even the Combusken, who had previously been handling it with ease, began to struggle.

However, after the initial struggle, the Combusken quickly managed to dodge all the rubber balls.

This was because the Combusken's ability had triggered.

Although using moves is prohibited during training, abilities are not included in that restriction.

The Speed Boost ability allows the Combusken to become stronger the longer it fights, increasing its speed as the session progresses.

Because of this, after enduring the initial hardship, the Combusken quickly adapted to everything.

Therefore, when all the rubber balls had been fired, the Combusken passed the third-level training perfectly!

At this moment, the Combusken's legs were already a bit weak, sweat dripped onto the ground, and its muscles began to tremble.

Hong Wu nodded; if he wasn't mistaken, the Combusken definitely had the potential to sprint toward the championship in the future!

Su Yu definitely had the aptitude to become a Champion.

"Let's stop here for today then."

Su Yu could see that the Combusken was also extremely exhausted, so he decided to end the training there.

However, to Su Yu's surprise, the Combusken slowly walked over.

It looked at Su Yu with a firm gaze, its eyes sharp.

Su Yu understood its meaning immediately.

"You want to continue and challenge the fourth level?"

"Combusken." The Combusken nodded firmly.

Hearing Su Yu's words, Hong Wu hurried over and advised,

"That won't do. You must know that fourth-level training is designed for Pokémon with Gym-level strength.

Although the rubber balls are made of rubber, hitting a Pokémon at such a high speed can still easily cause injury."

"It's still too early for the Combusken to challenge the fourth-level speed!"

"Combusken!" The Combusken patted its own chest, as if to say it was no problem.

Afterward, it also looked at the Poké Ball at Su Yu's waist.

Su Yu immediately understood its meaning.

The Poké Ball the Combusken was looking at was the one containing the Shelgon.

Previously, the Combusken's strength had always been the strongest among the three Pokémon, and it had also secured the position of the exam champion for Su Yu.

After seeing the Shelgon evolve after consuming the secret treasure, the Combusken also hoped to improve its own strength.

Therefore, it chose to continue challenging the fourth-level training, wanting to become stronger!

Su Yu also felt the Combusken's determination.

"Since you choose to continue the challenge, then I will naturally agree. But you must remember, don't push yourself too hard. If you fail, jump to the side immediately; I don't want you to get hurt."

Su Yu patted the Combusken's shoulder and said earnestly.

"Combusken!" The Combusken raised its right arm, indicating that it understood this.

"This... alright then, but you must be extremely careful." Seeing the determination of the two, Hong Wu decided not to persuade them further.

Su Yu let the Combusken sit aside to rest.

Now, it had already lost quite a bit of stamina.

It needed to recover slowly.

After a period of time, the Combusken recovered to its peak state.

It signaled to Su Yu that it had finished resting.

"Since you've rested well, let's go over."

Su Yu nodded and brought the Combusken to the equipment again.

Only this time, the Combusken was going to challenge the fourth-level speed!

At this time, the Shinx had also recovered its stamina, and it hopped over to Su Yu's side.

"Meow." The Shinx stood outside the preparation area, cheering for the Combusken.

Su Yu adjusted the equipment to the fourth level, looked at the Combusken, and warned it again.

"Remember, absolutely do not push yourself! If you feel you can't handle it, jump to the side."

The Combusken nodded.

"Then, get ready, start!"

"Boom!"

As the button was pressed, a rubber ball flew out of the machine with a boom.

If the third-level speed was like an arrow, then the fourth-level speed was like a cannonball!

Not only was the speed faster, but the power had also become stronger!

At this moment, the Combusken's eyes were sharp and spirited, its gaze like fire, staring fixedly at every rubber ball.

At the same time, the Combusken's brain was also running at high speed, simulating the trajectory of the incoming rubber balls.

Its limbs were not idle either, muscles tensed, ready to face any sudden situation.

At this moment, the Combusken was in a state where its essence, energy, and spirit were unified.

"Swish!" A rubber ball grazed past the Combusken's side, the friction with the air even generating heat.

"Whoosh!" Another rubber ball grazed past the Combusken's arm, missing it by only a few centimeters!

Hong Wu, standing on the side, couldn't help but break into a cold sweat for the Combusken.

062: Perfect Pass, the Exhausted Combusken!

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh."

One after another, the rubber balls flew over, all of which were dodged by the Combusken by the narrowest of margins.

Slowly, the Combusken activated its Speed Boost ability once again.

Its speed was enhanced.

From being barely able to dodge and looking slightly disheveled.

To gradually becoming relaxed and having some energy to spare.

It could be said that the change was very obvious.

The Combusken's sweat was constantly flying, splashing all over the floor.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"

One after another, the rubber balls grazed past the Combusken's side.

"Swish!"

Finally, the last rubber ball was dodged by the Combusken.

The Combusken had also completed the fourth-level training!

At this moment, the Combusken stood in the preparation area, panting heavily.

It no longer stood straight, its limbs were slightly sagging, its muscles were trembling; it was clear that it had reached its limit.

"Thud."

The Combusken finally couldn't hold on anymore; it knelt on one knee, its body leaning forward, almost collapsing from exhaustion.

Just as the Combusken was about to fall to the ground, someone supported its body.

The Combusken squinted its eyes and saw the trainer in front of it.

"Rest well, Combusken, you did very well. I am proud of you."

Su Yu said with a smile.

"Combusken~" After a weak response, the Combusken closed its eyes to rest.

It didn't even have the strength to open its eyes.

Su Yu picked up the Combusken.
