Chapter 1055: This Tokyo is not too hot

Three days passed in a flash, and the day communicated with Liao Xingchen in advance arrived quietly.

If it were an exchange tournament between schools across countries, the contestants might gather in the country once, or even hold a meeting.

But this action was clearly not like that. The selected candidates were all mature Trainers with Gym-level combat power, and newcomer Trainers like Su Hao were instead standing out from the crowd.

The gathering place was set directly at the venue of the first selection tournament—the capital of the Sakura Alliance, Tokyo.

The relevant exit visas and the flight tickets from the nearest airport directly to the Sakura Alliance had all been arranged clearly and had long been sent to Su Hao's mailbox.

Su Hao only needed to take the flight at the fixed time to arrive at Tokyo, the capital of the Sakura Alliance, and then go to the hotel rented by the Shenzhou Alliance to gather.

While waiting for the flight in the lounge, Su Hao held the hot cocoa sent by the staff and silently sorted out the gains from the special training during this period in his heart.

Dobrynya was left by him in Yang City, acting as Su Xu's sparring partner while waiting for Skadi to relocate the Articuno secret realm to Yang City.

Although Diancie, who had been concentrating its energy on absorbing Light Stones during this period, had slacked off in level improvement, it could already see the door to the Heavenly King level.

After absorbing the lightning of Shen Lingyun's Electivire for body forging, Incineroar's weak physical strength had been slightly improved. Gradually mastering the Evil Aura, it no longer needed Su Hao's assistance to use sustainable strengthening, and it could already stand on its own.

Milotic and Dragapult could erupt with combat power comparable to late Gym-level Pokémon at the early Gym-level. The Water Plate fragments, the Water Capital twins, and Giratina's power had gradually sprouted in them.

Besides the Hisuian Braviary breaking through to the Gym-level during this period, Lucario, whose training time was later than them, ultimately didn't catch the last bus. Su Hao could only temporarily call himself a Professional-level newcomer Trainer (sigh).

As for Leafeon, besides the sharpness around it becoming more and more intense, there was no change. The main task of the simple-minded Metagross now was to adapt to the Destruction Gene; the improvement of level didn't count as important. After successful adaptation, its combat power would be greatly improved.

Cyclizar was the Pokémon that made Su Hao feel most surprised, so surprised that Su Hao even wanted to find a way to go to the Beixiang Secret Realm to pick up Terastal crystals without Terastal energy to feed Cyclizar.

Cyclizar slept for a period of time after molting. Until it woke up again, except for the fact that its tail was still broken, the whole Pokémon had become different.

Even Incineroar, after seeing it, was muttering whether its positioning had been plagiarized by Cyclizar.

Cyclizar was still that energy-repelling constitution. Any attribute energy entering its body was like entering a bucket full of holes, and it couldn't keep a drop of water (energy).

However, after molting by eating two Terastal crystals, although Cyclizar still couldn't keep energy to improve its level, on the contrary, Cyclizar's power was greatly improved. In the sidelines, Su Hao even discovered an incredible thing.

Cyclizar's combat skills seemed very proficient. Even if it only relied on physical strength, it could easily take the upper hand in battles with Elite-level Pokémon and suppress and defeat its opponents.

Could it be that the experience in the Dragon Den made Cyclizar possess such experience?

Su Hao felt that something was wrong, but according to his existing knowledge, he couldn't draw a conclusion about where it was wrong.

【Passengers from Chengdu to Tokyo, please note that your international flight CA5281 is about to take off. Please carry your personal belongings and show your boarding pass, prepare to board at Gate 4. I wish you a pleasant journey】

The sound of the airport broadcast outside the lounge interrupted Su Hao's thoughts. Su Hao put down the cup containing hot cocoa. Before he could get up, a sweet voice sounded.

"Mr. Su, you can board the plane now."

The staff member in uniform showed a kind smile, reminding Su Hao that he could follow her to go through the boarding procedures.

Su Hao nodded slightly, didn't say anything, and followed the staff's footsteps directly through the VIP exclusive channel connected to the lounge to the security checkpoint that was completely empty and only served VIP passengers.

Next, whether it was confirming the passport or luggage security check, Su Hao didn't need to do it himself. The whole process was carried out by three or four staff members taking Su Hao like taking care of a child.

The people queuing for security checks on the other side of the ordinary tickets seemed to be people from a different world from him.

After passing the security check, Su Hao was taken by the staff to sit on the airport's exclusive shuttle bus, which sent him directly to the boarding gate without any obstruction.

After getting off the shuttle bus, Su Hao looked at the ticket and muttered: "It's really corrupt..."

The subsequent boarding experience was also like this. Most things were served by others, making Su Hao look like a young master in an ancient big family.

Perhaps, this is the horror of the power of money?

December 1, 2023, the last month of this year.

Tokyo, the capital of the Sakura Alliance, is the center of this small island country. Recently, a cold wave has arrived. When Su Hao got off the plane, a winter snow happened to visit.

Narita Airport, Su Hao, who specially changed into winter clothes to avoid attracting attention, took the escalator down, and his gaze cast downwards, muttering: "The season of White Album has arrived..."

He remembered that the hall under Narita Airport seemed to be the prototype of that famous White Album scene, right?

Tightening his collar, Su Hao only felt his stomach ache, and immediately dragged his suitcase out of Narita Airport, hailed a taxi outside the airport, and prepared to drive to the destination hotel.

Because Su Hao had exchanged for the currency of the Sakura Alliance in advance, he was not afraid that he would not have money to pay the fare.

The driver was a middle-aged man wearing a slightly wrinkled shirt and suit pants. Su Hao didn't quite understand why most office workers in the Sakura Alliance loved to wear formal clothes.

It's stuffy in summer and cold in winter. Even if there are coats and the like for warmth, it feels like pure torture.

On the way, the driver uncle originally greeted Su Hao in Sakura language. After discovering that he was a traveler from the Shenzhou Alliance, he immediately used fluent common language.

The driver master's name was Sato Kazuhito, and his hometown seemed to be in Nara Prefecture.

Sato Kazuhito was very talkative and recommended several places for Su Hao to visit. However, when he mentioned Su Hao's destination, his expression became a bit strange.
