Julian saw that Enji’s gaze was clear and bright. He did not seem like someone who exaggerated things.
As a psychic with Beginner Psychic Constitution, Julian could rely on the mutual sensing between psychics to tell that Enji had real skill.
Enji’s psychic power was above his own.
"During the battle just now, Primeape’s anger kept rising, and its strength increased greatly, allowing it to defeat both of my Pokémon."
"But I discovered that this constantly swelling power showed signs of exceeding Primeape’s control. Perhaps Primeape’s body can grasp this power."
"But Primeape’s body is already close to being unable to withstand its rage. It is not that Primeape’s spirit will be crushed by anger."
"Rather, Primeape’s soul is showing signs of being carried away from its body by that rage. Once the soul leaves the body, if it cannot return in time..."
"Benefactor, you had best find a way to strengthen Primeape’s soul. As for its rage, it is best not to exceed the intensity it reached when defeating Girafarig just now."
Julian nodded.
"Thank you for your guidance. How to guide Primeape’s training has always given me a headache."
"If you have some free time, why not rest at my home for a few days? Let me properly thank you for showing me the way."
Enji waved his hands repeatedly.
"No, no. I simply did not want to see an innocent life sacrifice itself like this."
At this moment, Maylene also ran back from the stands to the players’ lounge. When she found Julian, she immediately said:
"Julian, I met a girl in the crowd. She said Primeape’s body might have a problem! When she was detecting Primeape’s data, she found two abnormal sets of data."
"She said this kind of data contrast only appears in Pokémon that are close to death. Apparently, it’s an energy fluctuation that happens when the soul leaves the body."
Julian raised an eyebrow.
"Data detection?"
Enji was also deeply moved.
"I didn’t expect technology to have advanced to this level. I needed fifteen years of cultivating my insight to detect a trace of abnormality."
"And with only a machine, she could see Primeape’s condition clearly."
For a moment, Huiyuan Enji felt that reviving Bellchime School seemed rather unlikely.
Bellchime School was a product of the old era.
It seemed there was no place for it in the new era anymore.
Maylene nodded.
"It was a very special machine. Once it scanned, it gave a lot of words and numbers I couldn’t understand."
Julian nodded.
"Then I really do have to thank her for the reminder. Tomorrow, take me to find her so I can express my thanks."
Enji also said, "Since someone else has already reminded you, this humble monk’s contribution is even less worth mentioning. This humble monk will take his leave."
Julian sensed that Enji’s mood seemed somewhat off, so he quickly grabbed him.
"Please come have some tea at my home."
Maylene asked, "Aren’t we going to eat at the stadium before going back?"
Julian turned his head.
"Where would you prefer to eat?"
Enji hurriedly pulled his hand out of Julian’s grasp.
"Benefactor, such great strength. This humble monk is willing to stay temporarily at your home, but let us eat tonight’s meal at the stadium."
"Then that’s fine."
When they arrived at the canteen and Enji saw the siblings’ appetites, he was dumbstruck.
"This..."
Enji then looked at the few plates of vegetarian dishes and small bowl of rice in front of him.
Maylene raised her hand.
"Enji, why are you only eating this little? Can you get full? Should I go get some meat for you?"
Enji waved his hand and said, "Our sect’s cultivation requires eating less meat and fish, so this humble monk has eaten vegetarian food since childhood."
Maylene was curious.
"What kind of martial arts do you practise? Do you practise boxing too?"
Enji nodded.
"There is a set of boxing techniques, but it is only for strengthening the body. Our sect’s foundation lies in meditation to cultivate mental power, chanting scriptures to open insight, and at most, some practice in psychic power."
"In Pokémon terms, it leans towards the Psychic type."
Maylene nodded in sudden understanding.
"Then our family practises fists and kicks, so that’s Fighting type! It fits perfectly with our Fighting Gym."
Julian asked curiously, "Enji, why did you come all the way to Sinnoh instead of cultivating at your temple?"
Huiyuan sighed and slowly explained his circumstances.
Julian immediately gave him an idea.
"Your strength is quite good. Why not try opening a Psychic-type Gym in the Johto region?"
"Set the Gym near Bellchime School, or even inside the School itself. With the League’s funding for Gyms, you won’t have to worry about the inheritance problem."
Enji’s eyes immediately lit up.
"Right. Such a simple method. How did I not think of it?"
After eating, the three returned together to Veilstone Gym.
Julian arranged a guest room for Enji , then brought him to the battlefield.
"Enji, look. It’s only because of the Sinnoh League’s funding that I could build the battlefield like this."
"But if you want to repair Bellchime School, you may only be able to use an ordinary battlefield. It would be simple to maintain, and the maintenance costs would be low too."
When it came to Gym management, Julian really had endless things to say.
He gave Enji quite a few practical suggestions, making him more confident in successfully applying to establish a Gym.
Enji felt deeply moved.
If he had not had a kind thought today, he would not have received this kind result.
Julian glanced at the time.
"Please make yourself comfortable. I need to go train my Pokémon."
Julian went to train his Pokémon, while Enji asked Maylene for paper and pen.
For Julian’s help, Enji naturally had to repay him.
When he arrived at the training room, Julian directly told Primeape with a serious expression that it had to control the intensity of its anger, and that strengthening its physical condition could not be delayed.
As for something like the soul, Julian really did not know how it should be trained.
He could only indirectly drive the growth of the soul through arduous training and tempering willpower.
"Primeape, you don’t want to die before becoming number one in the world, do you?"
Frightened by Julian saying this, Primeape immediately decided that in the future, it would control its rage below the intensity it had reached when defeating Girafarig.
It began fifty-pound weighted frog jumps.
Hakamo-o wore the Lagging Tail to train strength and speed. Enduring the pressure of the Lagging Tail could allow Hakamo-o to withstand more uses of Dragon Dance in battle.
After evolving, the number of Dragon Dance boosts Hakamo-o could endure had risen to six.
Training while wearing the Lagging Tail meant he was already close to being able to bear seven Dragon Dance boosts.
Using the Lagging Tail in battle was no good.
But using it for training was extremely effective.
After Hakamo-o finished using it, it would be removed and given to Farfetch’d.
Hakamo-o would instead wear the Razor Claw to train the attacking power of Dragon Claw.
The Poison Barb, Razor Claw, and Sharp Beak obtained from the second simulation all had the effect of slowly increasing the wearer’s abilities while equipped.
This was also how Julian discovered that after Croagunk wore the Poison Barb for a week without removing it, Croagunk’s toxicity improved even faster than his Toxic training speed.
After investigating one by one, Julian finally discovered it was because of the Poison Barb item.
Looking back at the system description from when he obtained the Poison Barb:
[Can enhance the wearer’s Poison-type ability]
So this was actually the kind of enhancement it meant.
Over the past few days, the Razor Claw and Lagging Tail had been rotated between Hakamo-o, Farfetch’d, and Croagunk.
Now Primeape would be added to the rotation. Previously, it had rejected this kind of training method, but now, in order to stay alive and become the strongest, it should be able to accept it.
The Poison Barb would permanently stay with Croagunk.
The Sharp Beak would permanently stay with Farfetch’d.
Although Galarian Farfetch’d was not Flying type, it could still learn quite a few Flying-type moves.
And leaving the Sharp Beak unused would be too much of a waste.
Torchic was still young. Normal move and stamina training were enough. There was no need to add items, and Julian had not even arranged weights for it.
As for Gallade, these ordinary training methods would not have much effect on him.
But for the sake of team unity, Julian still added Gallade to the Razor Claw and Lagging Tail rotation.
It would improve Gallade’s bond with everyone.
However, Gallade definitely would not get a turn tonight.
He would only be able to use them tomorrow.
