Pokémon: Thunder Shatters the Darkness

Bang bang bang.

"Come in... Ouch, here it comes!"

Seeing Yang Xiao, Director Wang laughed, stood up from behind his desk and walked towards the sofa: "Come on, come on, sit down and talk."

"Ok."

He walked to the sofa and put his bear apprentice aside. Before he turned his head, he saw a drink being handed to him from the opposite side.

“Nutrient Express.”

Director Wang placed the drink in front of Yang Xiao and waved his hand casually: "You said before that you don't drink tea, so I specially asked someone to buy some in advance. If you are not used to it, there is also Red Bull here."

"Need not."

Looking at the drink, Yang Xiao took it with a smile: "That's it, thank you."

"Ugh!"

Hearing Yang Xiao's thanks, Director Wang immediately became serious: "No need to thank me. You are the official player of our Sixth Arena. It would be too awkward to thank you..."

There was a pause.

He looked at his apprentice Xiong, who was immersed in the battle video, and said, "Is the dark thing on your body okay?"

"fine."

Yang Xiao rubbed his apprentice Xiong's head and said frankly, "I have sprayed the 'Excellent Wound Medicine Spray'. Now I just need to take a shower when I get home."

"Excellent wound spray?"

Director Wang was a little surprised: "This thing is not available to ordinary people. How much did you spend?"

"No money spent."

“No flowers…”

Swish.

Director Wang seemed to realize something was wrong.

He put down his crossed legs, leaned forward, looked at Yang Xiao with sharp eyes, and said: "You were..."

"Ah."

Yang Xiao smiled and said: "I have been admitted into the talent pool and enjoy the elite training resources."

“Is it still under review?”

"No, it has already been implemented..."

"it is good!"

Just finished speaking.

Director Wang clapped his hands violently and stood up.

The whole person looked unusually energetic: "Good thing, if I remember correctly, you should be the only one in Henghai City."

"currently."

Yang Xiao looked at Director Wang with a smile: "And I think it's just average, it doesn't seem to be of much use."

Director Wang turned around and looked at him silently.

Xiao Yang, isn't this pretense a bit too obvious?

Yang Xiao smiled and nodded.

I'm just here for the obvious, Director.

“Having such an identity will be of great help in promotion on the Internet.”

Director Wang rubbed his head and said, "This is just your first step. Very good... Really good."

"Uh-huh."

Yang Xiao smiled brightly and said generously: "It's all thanks to the efforts of Disciple Xiong."

hum.

When he heard his own name, Apprentice Xiong's eyes did not leave the phone screen, but he hummed twice in response.

"Row."

Director Wang sat back on the sofa in a good mood, unbuttoned his clothes, and felt extremely relaxed:

"After so many years of settling down, it is finally time for me, Wang, to stand up."

"I now have great confidence in your future."

Yang Xiao lowered his eyes, still smiling.

"so."

The house was silent for a while.

Director Wang took a deep breath and looked at Yang Xiao: "Let's revise the contract."

"what?"

Yang Xiao looked a little surprised: "No need?"

"use."

Director Wang stared at Yang Xiao with sincere eyes and said sincerely:

"I think the previous salary package was a bit unreasonable. We can make some adjustments."

"No, to be honest, I haven't looked at the salary at all. I'm not interested in money at all."

"Ouch!"

Director Wang nodded seriously and gave a thumbs up: "No wonder you can succeed, Xiao Yang, I really admire you from the bottom of my heart... If you want to increase the salary, you must increase the wages.

"That's...ok."

Yang Xiao smiled shyly:

"I'm already satisfied with the 25% share of the competition. After all, without the strong recommendation of our arena, I wouldn't have been able to attract so many viewers..."

"Oh, you're really good, Xiao Yang! How about this, let's reverse the order of the commission, our Sixth Arena will take 25%, and the remaining 75% will be yours, okay?"

"I'm so embarrassed about this... A base salary of 12,000 is pretty good. I never imagined I was worth that much money before."

"You're worth it."

Director Wang leaped forward and grabbed Yang Xiao's hand.

Yang Xiao almost couldn't hold on to his disguise.

"I'll negotiate a base salary for you. The owner won't refuse."

Director Wang held Yang Xiao's hand while frantically patting his chest to make a promise: "Wang will do his best to make you enter the 20,000 club."

He pulled his hand away calmly, and failed.

Tried to pull it out again, and failed again.

Looking at Director Wang with a big belly, Yang Xiao took a deep breath and said, "Okay, okay."

"Xiao Yang is really easy to talk to."

Director Wang let go of his hand with satisfaction.

Yang Xiao quietly moved towards the sofa.

Trying to play tricks, huh?

Originally, he wanted to be more shy for a while to see if they could talk about more things, but he really didn't expect Director Wang to be so decisive and take the initiative.

hateful!

"oops."

Director Wang quickly suppressed the smile on his face and patted his forehead: "I almost forgot about the important matter."

Done.

He turned back to his desk, picked up the cardboard box on top, and put it on the tea table in front of the sofa: "This is for you."

Yang Xiao opened the box and took a peek inside.

The two sides are green, and the center is silver-gray.

This is an item similar to a dumbbell, which is a forced exerciser.

"Apprentice Bear."

Yang Xiao immediately said, "Stop looking at your phone and come here."

Apprentice Bear pouted.

"hurry up."

Yang Xiao suddenly became serious: "If you keep playing with your phone, you will get a terminal illness, you know that? Put it down now."

Hear the words.

Apprentice Bear looked up at him in shock.

really?

"of course it's true."

Yang Xiao was extremely serious: "Will I lie to you?"

Ok……

After pondering for a while, Apprentice Xiong reluctantly put his phone aside.

Following the trainer's line of sight, I looked towards the cardboard box.

Then he jumped off the sofa to the floor.

"for you."

Yang Xiao reached into the box, grasped it, and lifted it up.

Clenched my teeth instantly.

Very heavy.

He gathered all his strength to lift it up, and forced himself to hand it to his disciple Xiong.

Then, while moving his wrists, Yang Xiao said, "It's a bit heavy. See if it works well."

"Huha..."

After taking the forced exerciser, Apprentice Bear's arms sank for a moment, but soon returned to normal.

Director Wang raised his eyebrows slightly.

to be frank.

He didn't understand why Yang Xiao was selected into the talent pool.

It’s not that he thinks Yang Xiao is not worthy, but because as far as he knows, the talent pool has hidden rules.

That is the trainer who never enters the Sandalwood level.

Then why did Yang Xiao succeed?

He didn't know before, but now he has some guesses.

The Forced Exerciser is a very special item.

It is made of a special metal that can carry the energy of Pokémon.

The moment it comes into contact with a Pokémon, it automatically absorbs the Pokémon's energy and thereby increases its weight.

The more weight you add, the harder the Pokémon will push.

As soon as you apply force, this thing starts to absorb energy.

This is also the fundamental reason why it is called a "forced exerciser".

among them.

The more talented a Pokémon is, the harder it will be to lift the Forced Exerciser for the first time because it is not familiar with it.

It's hard to give in when you're constantly competing.

But this did not happen to Apprentice Bear.

Is it because its talent is not good enough?

of course not.

This is probably because it already has excellent control over its own body.

...Hehehe.

I didn’t expect that Yang Xiao was such a well-hidden person. Didn’t he even tell me when we met in the morning?

Apprentice Xiong felt the forced training device twice and nodded to Yang Xiao.

it works.

"Row."

Yang Xiao looked at Director Wang: "The remaining money please take a look..."

"The money will be deposited into my bank account at 7 o'clock tomorrow morning. After all, I have to deduct the tax today to avoid tax evasion..."

Director Wang stood up and clapped his hands: "Now that everything is done, let's take some photos."

Looking at the phone the other person held up, Yang Xiao laughed and said, "Is it so crude? Didn't they say there was a camera teacher?"

"I am."

Reaching out to smooth his sparse hair, Director Wang smiled at the camera: "Come on, eggplant."

behind him.

Apprentice Bear is gradually getting immersed in the experience of his new toy.

Yang Xiao stood there leisurely with a smile in his eyes.
