After all, the opponent only looks strong. Gongsun Yan can tell at a glance that the opponent's muscles are completely trained in the gym. Although they look spectacular, even if they are not just for show, they are definitely not as shocking as they appear.
This is very different from people like Wude who practice martial arts. If Wude stood here, although he might not look as oppressive as this strong man, if they really fought, the outcome would be decided within five moves.
You know, Wu De and his friends' daily practice in the gym is to fight against their own Fighting-type Pokémon. No matter whether they win or lose, they have to fight for half an hour. Students trained in this way, although not very good at fighting, at least have first-class dodging ability.
And Wude, this ruthless man, can even occasionally defeat the Fast Puncher and the Flying Kick Man with his skills. However, due to his physical limitations, he is naturally no match for them in terms of fighting power.
"It's you, kid. I'm going to show you my strength!" The sturdy man took out his Poké Ball and looked at Gongsun Yan with a fierce look on his face.
"Well, please give me your advice." Gongsun Yan also took out a Poké Ball and started to compete with it.
..........................................................................................
"Played well."
Gongsun Yan said this calmly, then he and Xiaozhi, who was waiting on the side, took the elevator and headed to the top floor.
The sturdy man was now sitting on the ground, not yet recovered from the blow. Half of his red-faced dragon's head was now sunken into the floor, and it twitched from time to time, indicating that he was still alive.
"Well, relax. After all, they are the young people that Professor Oak has chosen. And it was Professor Oak who took the initiative to let them come. It shows that Professor Oak believes that they can pass this test. Our loss is not unfair."
An office worker nearby noticed that the strong man was not in a good condition and hurried over to comfort him. After all, they had been colleagues and friends for such a long time.
However, the previous battle was indeed a bit tragic. The Red-faced Dragon, which the strong man was proud of, was completely beaten. Even if the Dragonite had not shown mercy, the Red-faced Dragon would definitely have some injuries on its body, and would not have just fainted like it did now.
"That's true. Never mind. I don't want to think about it anymore. I should get back to work."
After being comforted by his colleagues for a while, the strong man finally calmed down. He took the unconscious Red-Faced Dragon back into the Poké Ball and handed it to the secretary who was waiting nearby, asking her to take it for treatment.
Silver Company's infrastructure is quite good, and it has general treatment equipment. With such a minor injury, there is no need to go to the Pokémon Center. They can be treated in the company. After all, they are too old to enjoy free treatment services, so every bit of money saved is a bit of money saved.
After settling the red-faced dragon, the sturdy man looked at the elevator leading to the top floor, and a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes. He had been this young once, but he was not as spirited and powerful as these two children.
When the strong man set out on his journey, he was considered a rising star with some fame, because he had been friends with a red-faced dragon in the mountains behind his hometown since he was a child. Even this red-faced dragon still follows him to this day and has become his strongest fighting force.
Although his journey in the league competition was not very long and he was defeated by the champion of that year in the round of 32, he always felt that he was very strong.
After participating in the league competition, he was spotted by Silver Company and got a very good job. He also participated in many team-building activities held by the company and won the Pokémon battles, which also added to his pride.
But just now, when he was defeated miserably by Gongsun Yan, his dream was awakened. He had been sleeping in the fantasy he had created for so long and was unwilling to change his mind.
"Children nowadays are really talented. I should face the facts and work honestly. The boy at home is almost ten years old. The last year's tax still needs to be paid. The Red-faced Dragon and her child also need to be compensated. I should work hard."
The sturdy man smiled self-deprecatingly, turned around and went back to his office, forcing himself to forget those fantasies and focus all his attention on his work. Now he is not alone.
The maturity of adults can be roughly divided into three stages. The first stage is to begin to learn to cherish oneself and experience love; the second stage is to understand the importance of making money and provide a better life for oneself and family.
The third stage, and also the most important one, is to admit one’s own ordinariness. Immature people will think they are very great and that the world revolves around them, which is obviously wrong.
Although the strong man had already married and had children, completing the first two stages of maturity, he only understood the most important third stage today. He was in a daze, as if waking up from a dream!
This seems to be the sadness of adults, and also the responsibility. As they carry more and more things, the so-called freedom becomes increasingly distant from them. But isn’t this life?
..........................................................................................
"Xiao Yan, who do you think we will meet when we go upstairs?" Standing in the elevator, Xiao Zhi couldn't help but ask.
"Let me guess, it must be some old naughty boy, otherwise who would design such a game." Gongsun Yan thought about it thoughtfully and gave his opinion.
Gongsun Yan actually had reasons for thinking this way. Anyone who could get Silver Company to cooperate like this must be a highly respected person. And the presentation of this "game" seemed like a child's play. The designer must be either a child or an old naughty boy.
Considering all these factors, the only possible person is an old and respected man, and Gongsun Yan has almost guessed the identity of that person. After all, there are only a few people in Silver Company who are on good terms with Professor Oak.
"I think we still can't let our guard down. We acted so recklessly before, maybe someone is ambushing us at the elevator door now. We have to be careful then." Gongsun Yan's eyes flashed with a gleam of mischief.
Chapter 136 My computer is completely broken!!!
The elevator slowly stopped at the top floor of the Silver Building. The old men who were originally on the top floor looked towards the elevator, wanting to see who the two young men who overturned the table were.
But just as they were looking forward to it and waiting, two fully armored men appeared in front of them. One of them was holding a shield made of steel wrapped in ironwood. It was not light in weight, but the protective effect was definitely not bad.
As for the other person, he was hiding behind the back, with a faint blue light on his hand, and there seemed to be a round ball in his hand. His eyes were staring outside, and he might throw the thing in his hand out at any time.
"Um...you two, what are you doing?"
Seeing the scene before him, even the old man in the lead was a little confused. Was he back to the battlefield between the kingdom and the monsters?
"Oh, nothing. We were just worried about an ambush outside, so we resorted to this last resort. Please forgive us if we offended you."
Gongsun Yan held up his shield and walked out of the elevator carefully. He looked around and found that there was no ambush. Then he felt relieved and put the shield on the ground carelessly.
"Dangdang!"
As Gongsun Yan let go, the shield fell to the ground with a dull sound, which made the old men's eyelids twitch several times.
"Good boy, if this had happened in the past, you would definitely have been a brave general who charged into battle." More than one old man criticized Gongsun Yan in his heart.
"Xiao Yan, don't place such heavy things randomly. These are elderly people. What should we do if they accidentally trip over them?"
Xiaozhi picked up the shield that Gongsun Yan had placed on the ground with one hand and stuffed it into the backpack on Gongsun Yan's back. It didn't seem to be effortless at all.
Several elderly people widened their eyes after seeing this scene, their eyeballs almost popped out, and they kept rubbing their eyes, repeatedly confirming whether they were seeing things because of their old age.
"Ho!"
But the facts are of course irrefutable. No matter how they rub their eyes, the scene before their eyes will not change at all. So the confused old people uttered an ambiguous cry.
Just now they thought Gongsun Yan was a rare powerful general in the world, but after seeing Xiaozhi, they immediately abandoned their previous thoughts. This is the real powerful general.
"Oh, I see. Ahem, wait a moment, everyone. We'll take off our armor and it will be done in no time."
Gongsun Yan started to take off his armor as he spoke. Xiaozhi beside him had already started taking off his armor as he felt that the armor was too cumbersome and uncomfortable to wear.
Xiaozhi was actually right to think so. Although this set of armor looked very powerful, when it came to defense, it might not even be as good as Gongsun Yan's, not to mention Xiaozhi, the real rookie among the real rookies.
But this was exactly what Gongsun Yan wanted. Two naked people, unless they were standing on a busy street, would definitely not be as frightening as two people in armor.
These two sets of armor are Gongsun Yan's masterpieces, in which he added a lot of his own designs. And because they are tailor-made, many armor parts do not need to be strapped to fit the body, and are more of an integrated structure.
Of course, Gongsun Yan also knew the disadvantages of integrated construction, not to mention that he and Xiaozhi were still young. As they got older, they would not be able to wear them sooner or later.
But Gongsun Yan felt that when he could no longer wear this armor, he would have to save face... Pah! He would be too embarrassed to go out wearing these things.
Gongsun Yan also learned from different experiences of wearing armor. The connection between the armors was changed from buckles to straps, which not only made it convenient to wear, but also allowed one person to take off the armor.
You know, a lot of armor is troublesome to put on, and even more troublesome to take off. It often takes three or four people more than ten minutes to take it off, which is extremely tedious.
Therefore, Gongsun Yan used a lot of straps. Although he still needed help when putting them on, it was not so troublesome when taking them off. Just pull the straps slightly and they will fall off automatically.
At this time, Gongsun Yan was taking off his armor faster than Xiaozhi. After all, Gongsun Yan was more familiar with the armor, while Xiaozhi only knew that it existed but had never actually put it on.
And at this time, Xiaozhi's "Strong" becomes a debuff, and he must be very careful, otherwise if he is a little anxious and pulls the wrong strap, the slipknot will become a dead knot.
This is also the protection measure prepared by Gongsun Yan. Although this set of armor is his homemade work, basic safety issues are still guaranteed.
Xiaozhi saw that Gongsun Yan had almost taken off his armor, so he became anxious and pulled the wrong strap.
"Hey, hey, didn't I tell you to be careful? Come here, I'll help you untie it."
Gongsun Yan saw Xiao Zhi jumping up and down, trying to untie the straps on his body, but it became more and more complicated. He finally couldn't bear it anymore and took the initiative to go over to help.
With the help of Gongsun Yan, Xiaozhi's armor was finally removed. It was an armor specially designed by Gongsun Yan that could be put on in a few minutes and taken off in more than ten seconds.
As a result, under Xiaozhi's operation, Gongsun Yan took ten minutes to untie all the bandages, and several old men over there couldn't help but go to the toilet.
After all, they are all old and they drank a lot of water while waiting for the two people. The urge to urinate was unbearable, so they took this opportunity to go to the toilet.
"Ahem, everyone, please wait for a long time. I am sorry to bother you, junior."
Gongsun Yan barely controlled his emotions, stood in front of the table, and saluted to all the seniors present.
"...Forget it, sit down and serve tea."
The old man who was originally in charge wanted to teach Gongsun Yan and Xiao Zhi, two daring guys, a lesson. However, he was first frightened by the appearance of Gongsun Yan and Xiao Zhi, and ended up watching a farce.
As a result, the old man's anger was worn away by Gongsun Yan and Xiao Zhi's combined attack and defense. Now when he saw the two of them, in addition to helplessness, he actually felt more admiration.
"No wonder Xuecheng likes these two little guys so much. They are really interesting. I seem to see the figures of those two people from more than 20 years ago in them. Xuecheng, although you have never said anything, you have never let go of that matter."

Chapter 137: Twin Dragons of Heaven and Earth?
The old man looked at Gongsun Yan and Xiaozhi, and his eyes suddenly became dazed, as if time had gone back to more than 20 years ago, when there were also two lively boys standing in front of him and taking a lot of Master Balls from him.
Those two boys eventually became the backbone of the alliance, but they all disappeared in an expedition. Their glory was like a flash in the pan, fleeting.
If the two of them had not disappeared, how could Kanto be called the weakest region? At that time, no matter which region the people were from, they all bowed down at the feet of the two of them.
Therefore, they also gained a resounding title, the Twin Dragons of Heaven and Earth. At the beginning, they directly suppressed that era, and even Sakaki, who had just debuted, submitted to their majesty.
If the two of them had not disappeared, the Rockets might have collapsed on their own and actively integrated into the league, contributing to the construction of the league, instead of becoming the league's archenemy as they are now.
Ten years ago, a genius emerged and shattered the Rockets' conspiracy in one fell swoop, making his own efforts for the safety of the league.
But this genius was so lazy that he didn't even think about taking on any responsibilities. He passed the responsibility of revitalizing the family to his elder brother, and became a free and easy king, living a very happy life.
Otherwise, the Kanto region would not have left the championship title vacant for so many years, and it would not have been ridiculed by people from other regions. No matter whether it was the Twin Dragons of Heaven and Earth or that genius, any one of them could defeat the Four Heavenly Kings and the champion of a region by themselves, and it would not be a problem to wipe out the entire region even if they were one against five.
To be honest, after the Twin Dragons of Heaven and Earth disappeared and that genius suddenly appeared, President Damaranch took a liking to that genius and even regarded him as his successor, training him there intentionally or unintentionally.
As a result, after knowing President Damaranch's plan, that guy directly used Brother Tumu's unique skills, picked up the bucket and ran away, going to the Sinnoh region for vacation.
That’s right, that guy is naturally Yu Longyan. His personality is exactly the same as Gongsun Yan. It would be no less difficult to get him to become the Kanto champion than to get Gongsun Yan to become the Hoenn champion.
As for the Twin Dragons of Heaven and Earth, I can only say that those who understand will understand, so I will not elaborate here. These two will appear later, and they will appear in a way similar to deus ex machina. After all, they are all predecessors, top heroes like the Sweeping Monk.
Now Gongsun Yan and Xiao Zhi are no longer one person...not two people. There are three seniors standing behind them, and their glory shines on them.
This seems to be a bit strange, as these three predecessors are still alive. However, in the eyes of the old man, he is now facing five people, five geniuses who can represent their respective eras.
"…Sorry for the long wait. When people get older, they tend to daydream and forget about time."
The old man came to his senses and found that everyone was looking at him. Those old friends who went to the toilet also came back and were waiting for him to come back to his senses.
"No, no, you can still continue to reminisce."
Gongsun Yan and Xiaozhi looked at each other, and finally Gongsun Yan spoke up to answer. It's not that Xiaozhi doesn't know how to say these high-sounding words, but Gongsun Yan is better at it.
"No, it's getting late now, and my old friends can't sit still any longer, so let's finish the next process quickly."
The old man glanced at the old friends around him who were fidgeting and spoke unhappily.
"Hey, we're not in such a hurry, it's just, it's just..."
The old men nearby were obviously stimulated by these words and immediately started to explain, but they hemmed and hawed for a long time and didn't get a word out.
"Then you should know why old man Damu called you here!"
The old man suddenly sat up straight, and his aura changed drastically. He was the serious old man next door just now, but now he turned into a noble who has been in a high position for many years, full of majesty.
"I don't know!" X2
"Cough cough cough!"
Facing the old man's questioning, Gongsun Yan and Xiao Zhi denied it in unison, which made all the old people present choke. Even the old man sitting in the first seat could not maintain the momentum he had just had.
"No, you guys don't know anything, and you were brought here by old man Damu?"
One old man couldn't help but blurt out the question. Other old people around him also turned their heads, and it was obvious that they also cared about this issue.
"Well, that's true. After all, Professor Oak is our elder and senior. We must try our best to meet his requests."
Gongsun Yan said with a little doubt. He felt that there was nothing wrong with his idea. Why did these people act like they had seen a ghost?
"Nothing, nothing." On the surface, everyone present had returned to normal, but Gongsun Yan always felt something was wrong.
"Old man Damu is worthy of being Old man Damu. After he gave up martial arts and turned to literature, there is not a single student he taught who doesn't love him. There is no comparison." An old man thought to himself.
It turned out that the three people mentioned before said similar things after arriving at the Silver Building. This made these old men even more amazed at Professor Oak's ability. He was really good at teaching his disciples.
"Forget it, it doesn't matter. Old man Damu called you two over here because he had a plan. The Poké Balls on you should be running out of energy soon." The leading old man, or Silver, said so.
That’s right, this old man is the president and owner of Silver Company. He holds more than half of the shares of Silver Company, which means he has the controlling stake. Silver Company is his one-man show.
"Yes."
Gongsun Yan and Xiaozhi looked at each other, and his right hand unconsciously brushed over the Poké Balls on his waist, lingering on the faint crack on it for a while.
These Poké Balls naturally contain the legendary beasts that Gongsun Yan and Xiaozhi have captured. The cracks on them were not created intentionally by them. It is simply because the Poké Balls cannot withstand the enormous power in their bodies.
Although Devin Company provided the two of them with different types of Poké Balls according to the attributes of the legendary beasts, under the influence of the legendary beasts' ever-expanding power, the lifespan of the Poké Balls began to count down after the legendary beasts were taken in.
Gongsun Yan did have two Master Balls, but after some calculations, he realized that the worst that could happen was that he could just replace the Poké Balls frequently, which wouldn't cost much, but Master Balls were something that was in short supply.
