"Seviper, get ready for your battle." Kuraki soothed the restless Arbok.
"Don't worry, Arbok, you're always my cutest little darling. Hurry up and evolve, hurry up and show your valiant posture."
A morbid smile appeared on Kuraki's face.
Blond Kid knew this was Kuraki's true self. Kuraki was stern, disliked communicating with people, and always appeared as a cold youth in front of outsiders.
But Blond Kid couldn't help but admire that Kuraki was a genius trainer.
Basically, every challenger Kuraki captured was subdued by his powerful trainer battle intuition.
"The Waltz Dancer of Serpent Pokémon" – this was Kuraki's nickname. Obsessed with snake-like Pokémon, he could accurately describe the physical characteristics and aptitude of any serpent Pokémon.
"You guys focus on Lan Ling's side. They are a challenger group second only to us." Kuraki's eyes shone like obsidian.
Kuraki's guess was correct; lone challengers were not to be feared. The main priority now was to weaken the strength of clustered challengers.
"Seviper, you are my ace!" A sickly expression appeared on Kuraki's pale face.
Seviper opened its large mouth, and venom dripped from its fangs onto the ground, making a sizzling sound.
"It's the second gathering," Lan Ling said to the challengers gathered around.
"We are now competing with Kuraki's team for the final spot, but one thing to note is that we need to absorb those lone challengers."
"We will win by numbers, but be careful not to be counterattacked by Kuraki's team." Lan Ling's strategy was different; she wanted to incorporate the challengers who were outside of any team.
Moreover, Lan Ling's challenger team was predominantly female.
"Understood, leader. Our Frost Rose Troupe will faithfully carry out your orders." Lan Ling's ability to win people's hearts was quite strong, and the members of her challenger group knelt on one knee.
In her previous life, Lan Ling also established the Frost Rose Troupe, won the final trial, and was promoted by her patron Athena, eventually rising through the ranks.
In the training ground's gravity chamber, Aron, after a full day of training, could move freely with ease under 4 times gravity, which greatly pleased Qingwu.
Actually, what Qingwu wanted more was for Aron to condense rock energy in the gravity chamber and train the Rock Blast skill.
However, Qingwu still didn't dare to take this risk. What if the condensed rocks smashed the entire gravity chamber?
This gravity chamber cost several million.
Wouldn't it be better for Qingwu to keep those millions to buy Pokémon and resources?
As for Zubat, at Qingwu's request, it managed to endure a level 6 wind for exactly thirteen minutes and six seconds, which already greatly surprised Qingwu.
"It's a pity we're about to gather; otherwise, we could have stayed longer." Qingwu still had points, so he could always convert the green-aptitude Bellsprout into points.
However, Qingwu was determined to explore the entire Trial Island, so he wouldn't use the training ground for a while.
Qingwu walked to the square and found a seat, secretly observing the promising contestants.
There were noticeably fewer people in the square than before; Team Rocket's trial was still very cruel.
Just then, Raimei returned, bringing Meowth to sit beside Qingwu.
"Boss, I've already captured that Beautifly. I now have four main Pokémon." Raimei whispered to Qingwu.
"That Spinarak is not necessary; it's best not to let it appear." Qingwu reminded Raimei.
"I understand, boss. Oh, by the way, boss, I saw Jigglypuff. He actually escaped back to the base and also has a very fierce-looking Arbok." Raimei suddenly remembered something and said to Qingwu.
"A clown, not worth fearing. You now have four Pokémon, you need to learn group combat. He only has one Arbok, no need to be scared." Speak of Cao Cao, and Cao Cao arrives.
Jigglypuff appeared in the square with a fierce Arbok, glaring at Qingwu as if he wanted to devour him.
Qingwu ignored Jigglypuff's fierce gaze and instead turned his attention to the suddenly appearing Black-robed Man.
The Black-robed Man was like a venomous snake, watching all the challengers in the square.
An overwhelming, unparalleled aura swept over them. Almost everyone caught by the Black-robed Man's gaze felt as if they were in an ice cave.
Qingwu was directly stared at by the Black-robed Man, instantly feeling a chilling terror and unable to move his body.
Cold sweat drenched Qingwu's back. One second, two seconds, three seconds…
The Black-robed Man stared at Qingwu for a full five seconds before turning his head, eventually seeming to lose interest and sat down on the Frostwolf Instructor's seat, closing his eyes.
Almost everyone breathed a sigh of relief after the Black-robed Man closed his eyes. Based on his experience from his previous life, Qingwu judged that this guy was extremely dangerous.
Even in his previous life, facing the siege of the Elite Four, he had never experienced such profuse cold sweat and surging adrenaline.
This guy had at least the strength of a high-tier Elite Four, or even a peak Elite Four. Qingwu could also emit an Elite Four's aura, but it was far less terrifying than this guy's.
Qingwu felt as if he had just been stared at by an Ancient Evil God.
All the challengers present dared not breathe deeply, fearing they might disturb this fearsome god.
"Strange, this person never appeared in my previous life." Qingwu remembered very clearly that throughout Team Rocket's trial, this person never appeared from beginning to end. What went wrong here?
The deviation in memory also meant that Qingwu's rebirth was like a small butterfly flapping its wings, potentially affecting the entire world.
Just then, Kuraki's challenger team also appeared, and most of the surviving challengers were present.
Qingwu quickly scanned the entire square. There were about a hundred people, exactly half the number from last time.
The challengers were roughly divided into seven or eight teams, with Kuraki's and Lan Ling's teams being the largest, each having over twenty members.
Aside from the teams, Qingwu remembered seeing famous lone wolves in his previous life.
These lone wolves all survived until the end of the trial and later became elite members of Team Rocket.
Subsequently, the Frostwolf Instructor appeared with the Team Rocket members.
"The second test begins. To increase the difficulty, the robot's movement speed will be several times faster. Your Pokémon will only get a score if they accurately hit the robot's belly area."
"So, Team Rocket rookies, use all your might to save your miserable lives. Alright, the assessment begins, according to the rankings from the last assessment!" The Frostwolf Instructor waved his hand.
