The Kingdom of Loque has arrived, and this sparring partner is so awesome!

Chapter 11: The Evolution of the Miraculous Grass!

Xu Xuan didn't get angry in the dojo; he left with a sullen face.

Lin Chong didn't mind and continued to supervise Qi Licao's training.

After the man in the suit caused such a commotion, the people in the establishment paid significantly more attention to Lin Chong. Even customers who didn't know him would ask others about him.

Naturally, the training process of Qilicao has also attracted a lot of attention.

Someone stood not far away and watched for a while. When they saw that Qilicao was just being beaten, they cried out in surprise.

"Is this what you call training? Isn't it just abusing a Pokémon?"

Others chimed in, "I've never seen anyone train a spirit like this before. Isn't this kid, Lin Chong, just messing with people?"

"That little girl is so stupid, she can't even see that..."

It was like a mirror image of Xu Xuan being discussed.

Gossip drifted into Lin Chong's ears—questions, insults... but none of this affected him.

Lin Chong knew very well that the masses were like that—opportunistic and prone to saying whatever came to mind. He had long since outgrown the stage of caring about such things.

However, he didn't care, but Chen Xi, who was still a high school student, couldn't do that.

She was clutching the hem of her clothes, her face was pale, and she kept looking around nervously.

Lin Chong thought for a moment and asked, "Why don't you go to the lounge and rest for a while?"

"I can keep an eye on things here."

Chen Xi hesitated for a moment, but still firmly refused: "No, I'm a Celestial Grass trainer!"

"I ran away, leaving it to train alone. What kind of behavior is that?"

Lin Chong nodded in understanding and turned his attention back to training.

The crowd of onlookers didn't discuss it for long; seeing there was nothing to see, they quickly dispersed, leaving only a few people in the hall silently observing this strange training method.

Old Zhou at the front desk lingered on venue number five for a few seconds, chuckled, and then looked down at his newspaper again.

It was three o'clock, and Qilicao was exhausted.

Chen Xi instinctively wanted to go in and hug it, but this time Lin Chong stopped her.

He looked at the beautiful grass, frowned slightly, and after a brief moment of thought, ordered: "Continue."

"coach!"

Chen Xi panicked: "This child is exhausted! He's been practicing for an hour!"

In the field, the clover swayed as if it would fall over at any moment.

Lin Chong was also puzzled at this moment. He also thought that the Qili Grass had reached its limit, but just now, he heard a mechanical voice in his ear.

[Detected intermediate wish "Evolve" for the Pokémon "Kirish".]

Even though it had reached the end of its rope, the strange grass's current wish was actually to evolve?

In other words, subconsciously, it was hoping the training would continue.

Having made his assessment, Lin Chong decisively gave the order: "Water Stream Bullets!"

The two water-type spirits immediately activated their energy, and two streams of water, one fast and one slow, rushed towards the nearly unconscious Qili Grass.

"don't want!"

Chen Xi panicked. She pushed Lin Chong aside and rushed into the field, turning her back to the water and protecting the Qilicao in her arms.

The surging water rushed towards them, and Chen Xi closed her eyes tightly in fear.

Jiahao, standing on the sidelines, suddenly jumped to his feet, his face filled with panic: "Oh no, something's happened!"

The elves' skill attacks can be fatal if they hit a person!

However, the next second.

A burst of dazzling light illuminated the entire dojo.

"That's right!"

The panic on Jiahao's face froze, replaced by surprise.

Guests in other areas also looked over, their expressions identical, until someone shouted, "It's evolution!" and they snapped out of their daze.

"A Pokémon has evolved!"

"Quick, take a picture and post it on WeChat Moments!"

The bustling sound of people taking out their phones.

Lin Chong stood on the sidelines without making a move, but his expression was somewhat wistful.

It's evolution! Compared to the game, seeing this scene in person is definitely more shocking.

Stars surrounded the magical grass, which emitted a white light and swayed its body. As the white light grew brighter, its shape changed—

Not only did its body grow several sizes larger, but the flower buds on its head also swelled up, like flowers about to bloom.

A mechanical sound rang out.

[Wish fulfilled, Kingdom Coins +500]

In the arena, the newly born Chili Leaf faced two streams of water and once again released its "fibrous" defense.

It looked at Chen Xi, who was holding it, whose arms were still trembling...

The kiwi leaves raise their flower buds, one layer of fibrous material... and then another!

Two consecutive lines of defense blocked all the water projectiles!

Chen Xi lowered her arms, and what she was holding in her arms was no longer the small blade of grass that only reached her knees.

The evolved flower buds of the Qiliye are about to bloom, and the leaves are wider than her palm.

"Chiliye..."

She murmured the name of the evolved form of the plant, which she had seen countless times in the Pokédex, but seeing it in person still felt unfamiliar.

At that moment, Chen Xi was so excited that she didn't know what to say. She just kept looking at Lin Chong with a complex and grateful expression in her eyes.

At this moment, the others finally came to their senses.

They looked at Qiliye, then at Linchong; some felt guilty, while others were filled with fervent admiration.

In an instant, a large group of people surrounded Lin Chong.

They were excited and chattered amongst themselves.

"Coach, can I call on you? My little bug has been eating like crazy lately, it feels like it's about to evolve!"

"Bullshit, your family eats way too much! Click on me, coach, click on me!"

"I'll pay double the coaching fee, click on me first!!"

The scene immediately descended into chaos.

However, despite the many temptations, Lin Chong remained unmoved, simply pushing through the crowd to Chen Xi's side.

His expression was serious: "Are you alright? Are you hurt?"

Chen Xi was stunned for a moment, then waved her hand excitedly: "No, I'm not injured, Coach, thank you so much—"

Before she could finish speaking, Lin Chong suddenly yelled, "Do you know how dangerous your actions are?!"

"Taking skills with your bare hands? Are you a complete newbie?"

"If you die in the dojo, the compensation will be enough for me to work here for the rest of my life, do you know that?!"

Chen Xi was stunned by the scolding and apologized repeatedly, at a loss for what to do.

Lin Chong wanted to say something more, but then he heard an old voice suddenly ring out.

It was Old Zhou who arrived; he had been keeping an eye on this place.

"Lin Chong, who gave you permission to yell at customers in the dojo?"

Lin Chong's expression changed, and he turned to look.

Old Zhou, dressed in loose, old clothes, walked slowly over with his hands behind his back. He looked at Chen Xi sitting on the ground, and then at Lin Chong.

"Evolution is a good thing, everyone should be happy."

"Those who have finished taking photos, please leave. I'm not going to refund you for the time you wasted."

He clicked his tongue and pointed at Lin Chong: "Come find me after get off work."

"Everyone else, you can leave now."

-

The setting sun cast a golden glow across the sky, illuminating Chen Xi's rosy face.

Holding Qiliye's hand, whose belly was already reaching her lower abdomen, she stood outside the dojo and kept bowing to Lin Chong.

Her voice was filled with emotion: "Coach, I really don't know how to thank you."

"I never expected you could help my Pokémon evolve!"

Lin Chong waved his hand dismissively: "It's because you nurtured it well that it reached the threshold of evolution. I only played a supporting role."

How can you say that?

"But many people never witness a Pokémon evolve in their entire lives!"

Chen Xi said earnestly, "I will repay you. Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you."

"No, not yet. I wish you the best of luck in your college entrance exam."

Lin Chong waved goodbye to her, then leaned against the door, watching Old Zhou at the front desk doing the accounting.

He looked at it for a while and then spoke up.

"What's wrong, boss? You're not going to make me work overtime, are you?"

With no outsiders around, the old man stopped giving Lin Chong a friendly look and snorted coldly.

"Make you work overtime? I'm afraid you'll tear my restaurant down!"

"Evolution and making enemies are both part of my schemes. My little temple can't possibly contain such a great Buddha as you."

Lin Chong frowned: "A feud? You mean Xu Xuan?"

"Otherwise what?"

The old man said irritably, "You don't need to come to work starting tomorrow."

"You've been fired."

Lin Chong was taken aback and straightened up from leaning against the door frame.
