Chapter 1056: Rewards from the Four Gods Island
"Quasi-Grandmaster?! A quasi-Grandmaster Doron Baruto suddenly appeared in the East China King Ranking Competition!"
"Time can smooth out everything, but it cannot smooth out Xia Yu's amazing talent."
"To test the jade, you need to burn it for three days, and to identify the material, you need to wait seven years. The seven-year period has come, and King Xia Yu has returned!"
"Father-in-law and son-in-law fighting! The East China champion position may become a father-in-law and son-in-law battle!"
"Golden flash! The strongest ghost dragon!"
…………
After fermenting overnight, the news of the quasi-master-level Flashing Doron Baruto topped the headlines of major portals across the country. Xia Yu's name once again spread across the country and became the subject of discussion in the streets and alleys!
Xia Yu's past battle records were also turned up.
The champion of the College Cup, the youngest gym leader in the Imperial Capital, the owner of the legendary beast Diancie, a genius Pokémon doctor...
Countless dazzling experiences coupled with his handsome appearance made Xia Yu the darling of major media!
"Sometimes, being handsome is a sin." Xia Yu lay on the soft sofa, crossed his legs, and watched the TV program "Post-match Analysis of the East China King Qualifying Tournament" on TV.
"Based on the strength Xia Yu has shown so far, he has firmly occupied a seat in the Four Heavenly Kings of East China."
"Similarly, the former chief of the Four Heavenly Kings, Gu Ying, also occupies a seat, so the remaining two seats are most likely to be occupied by the two Heavenly Kings from the previous term, the Steel Heavenly King Hu Yongle and the Fire Heavenly King Xiao Huohuo!"
"I don't completely agree with your point of view. First of all, Xia Yu and Gu Ying's seats in the Four Heavenly Kings are very stable, I agree with this, but Hu Yongle and Xiao Huohuo's opponents are very strong, and they may not be able to hold on to their seats in the Four Heavenly Kings."
…………
Xia Yu watched the debate between the two guests on the show for a while and found it a bit boring. He turned off the TV, stood up and asked Eve who was dozing off beside him: "Eve, who is my next opponent?"
"Yu Yun."
"How is the strength?"
"Does strength matter to you? Anyway, I'm not your opponent." Eve couldn't help but complain, but she changed her tone and continued, "Yu Yun focuses on Psychic-type, his signature Pokémon are Miss Gothic and Bronze Bell, his Space Team might be a little tricky."
Despite all the complaints, Eve still performed her duties as an assistant seriously. She had long guessed that Xia Yu would ask about the next opponent, and had already made preparations in advance.
"Okay, I understand." Xia Yu nodded.
"By the way, the Pokémon Association headquarters TV station just called and wanted to interview you." Eve continued, "In addition, the East China Pokémon Association also invited you to do an exclusive interview."
"It's a foregone conclusion that you'll become one of the Four Heavenly Kings. They want to interview you in advance and have you show up more often to warm up the situation."
"Besides that, there are some media outlets that want to interview you, and I have rejected them all for you. With your current status, you don't have to pay any attention to them as long as they are not official media."
Xia Yu listened to Eve's words and nodded slightly, with a thoughtful look on his face. After thinking for a few breaths, he said, "Well, I'll do as you say. I'll postpone the other interviews. Please help me arrange a time for those two interviews."
"Okay." Eve nodded heavily.
"When is my next game?" Xia Yu continued to ask.
"In a week."
"What are your plans for today?"
"Sister Chi, Sylvia, and Shi Chuchu came to you this afternoon to report. It seems that there has been a major breakthrough in the experiment at the Giant Laboratory."
"Also, there is a dinner party tonight. Chu He, the Four Heavenly Kings Master of North China, wants to see you." Eve replied meticulously, "Early this morning, Rong Wuwei from the Rong family called personally and wanted to see you."
"Rong family?" Xia Yu frowned and asked, "Is it about cooperation?"
"No." Eve shook her head and analyzed seriously, "He also made an appointment with Long Guanjun. He must have seen your performance yesterday and wanted to get closer to you. You can't refuse this dinner."
"Any more?"
"Chen Zhengyan also wants to meet you."
"Hmm..." Xia Yu tapped the table rhythmically with his fingers, and after a moment he said, "Please arrange it for me. Let's meet each other."
…………
in the afternoon.
Chi Hanqing, Sylvia and Shi Chuchu rushed over from the imperial capital in a dusty state.
Looking at the three beauties with different styles in front of him, Xia Yu showed a sincere smile on his face.
It turns out that beautiful women are the most pleasing to the eye!
"Thank you for your hard work. You guys take a seat first and take a rest. We'll talk about business later. There's no rush." Xia Yu said with a smile, "By the way, I have a dinner party tonight."
Xia Yu said this, and set his eyes on Shi Chuchu: "Have dinner with your brother, you two can come together in the evening."
"Yes, my brother told me." Shi Chuchu adjusted the black-framed glasses on her nose and nodded slightly. It was obvious that she already knew it before coming.
At the same time, Chi Hanqing and the other two girls took off their coats, revealing beige turtleneck sweaters. Their plump and round figures made the room a little warmer.
"Come and have some hot tea." Xia Yu took the hot tea brought by the servant and placed it in front of the three women: "Why are you rushing here in such a hurry? Do you have any good news?"
The three women looked at each other, and it was Chi Hanqing, the acting director, who spoke first: "Let me start. Several businesses in the laboratory have maintained steady growth, especially the gigantic wristbands. With our effective control of production, orders have increased several times, and the price has nearly doubled."
"Yeah. Well done." Xia Yu nodded and continued, "After you go back, continue to reduce the orders as planned. Half a month later, issue a notice to stop making the Gigantamax wristbands and only accept orders that bring their own raw materials. Hurry up and collect the raw materials for making the Gigantamax wristbands."
"After the gym owner reform is completed in Sujiang Province, it will be promoted nationwide. At that time, the Pokémon Association will support the gym owner system reform and speed up the construction of Dynamax gyms. It is expected that all gyms in the country will be converted into Dynamax gyms within three to five years."
"The price of the Gigantamax wristband will skyrocket at that time. Our first priority now is to collect the raw materials for making the Gigantamax wristband."
"Also... I'm worried that something might happen to the Gigantamax wristband." Xia Yu thought of the last undiscovered water secret realm gap. If the Unlimited is unsealed, the raw materials for the Gigantamax wristband might become a non-renewable resource!
"Okay." Chi Hanqing nodded heavily: "There is one more thing. Tai Crystalization has been successfully replicated. We can announce it at any time!"
"Oh?! Not bad!" Xia Yu showed a smile on his face, and then he remembered the reward from the Four Gods Island last time.
Although the last trip to the Four Gods Islands was several years ago, the danger at that time is still vivid in my mind.
Necrozma, the Great God of Light, Solgaleo, the God of the Sun, Lunala, the Goddess of the Moon...
However, his own harvest was also extremely rich. The Secret Treasure of Zero was one of the rewards from the last time.
[Secret Treasure of Zero] (One-time Item): Contains special energy. It can only be used after finding both the Book of Vermilion and the Book of Purple. After use, it will create an entrance to the giant secret realm of Padiya on the spot. Please use with caution.
【Book of Zhu】: Already obtained.
【Book of Purple】: Missing.
After searching for many times over the years, Xia Yu has only found the Red Book. Now he only needs the last Purple Book to open the secret realm [Padiya].
…………
One of the rewards is the Secret Treasure of Zero, and of course there are other rewards. (For example, the Cosmog that everyone is thinking about, I assure you, this one will definitely be there)
