The badge of the Qianlong Gym is a roaring dragon's head. It's hard to tell which dragon's head it is, but it's quite handsome.
Xia Chen solemnly accepted the first gym badge he got, but found that he didn't have the small box to put the badge in the animation, so he had to put it in his pocket first.
Then, he said with a smile on his face: "Thank you, Uncle Long."
Long Ye smiled casually, "You're welcome, this is a reflection of your strength."
Although he was beaten three to one by this kid in the end and couldn't even see his last elf, Long Ye was more happy for his juniors.
As the connection and friendship between Qianlong Gym and Xia Chen became deeper and deeper, he began to slowly treat Xia Chen as half one of his own.
However, this kid's growth rate is a bit scary... Long Ziyi, who knew Xia Chen's strength half a year ago, was still a little shocked.
Although Fairy Yin Bu's attributes were somewhat restrained against dragon-type elves, killing two dragons whose strength was significantly higher than hers was not something that could be accomplished with a fairy-type elf.
Long Ye said with emotion: "If you continue to grow at this rate, you and Xiaoyue will be able to participate in the Donghuang Conference the year after next!"
Of course, the participation he was talking about was not just about participating in the competition, but having the ability to show off in the competition.
The difference between the two is huge.
For the former, basically as long as a trainer reaches the elite level, he can collect eight badges to qualify for the competition.
In Donghuang, the most populous area, there can even be tens of thousands of participants in each session.
But if you want to overcome all obstacles in the conference and enter the main competition where only 64 people can advance, you need to have further strength to do it.
…………
Xia Chen didn't understand the meaning of Long Ye's words, but he still accepted the compliment humbly.
He had something else on his mind.
This "understanding test" is over, and Menas' bottom line is almost figured out. The limit of Senbu is still a mystery.
Perhaps the Dragon-type Gym is a little easy for her, but if she has time, she can challenge the Steel-type Gym. It seems that the Steel-type Gym is located in the northeast of the Donghuang area, and it is not too far from here.
As for Kirulian and Soroa, one didn't even have a chance to play today, and the other was not suitable to appear in the battle yet.
They could only use the two seniors in the team as a reference to estimate their approximate strength level.
Although today I defeated an elite-level elf in 3v3, it does not mean that my strength has reached this level.
The freezing beam obtained at the expense of Menas, as well as the attributes of Tianke, are both important factors for the success of the leapfrog challenge.
Excluding these factors, if it is a game without obvious attribute restraint, Xia Chen believes that his team can currently defeat senior opponents at most.
They are all elite-level and designated to be unstoppable.
However, at the elite level, at Xia Chen's age, it is already a level that can graduate from university with excellence.
So in other words, Xia Chen is qualified to graduate from college before going to college.
Although the elite level is only separated from the gym level by a thin line, the gap is larger than the entry level to the elite level combined.
It is precisely because the span of the elite level is too large and mixed with good and bad, the alliance has also specially added star settings for trainers above this stage.
One to five stars, the more stars, the stronger the strength.
And this stage is the limit that many ordinary people can reach in a lifetime.
…………
After all, it was just a gym challenge, and no more disturbances were caused. After the game, Xia Chen's life returned to peace.
To be precise, it was the calm before the storm. He began to resume training at normal intensity while waiting for the rumored arrival of the Dragon Island envoy.
Half a month passed by in a flash. On July 31st, Qianlong Gym welcomed a special guest, Qixi Bluebird.
There is no doubt that she is the messenger who came all the way from Dragon Island.
Judging from how familiar Long Ye and Long Yue were with the Chinese Valentine's Day bluebird, it is estimated that she has been serving as the envoy of Long Island, responsible for liaison with the outside world.
Like Kuailong, Qixi Bluebird is a dragon with a docile temperament in most cases, which is still relatively rare among the dragon elves who mostly have a hot temper.
You can tell from the name alone that the Tanabata Blue Bird is completely different from the three evil dragons, the violent flying dragon, and the biting land shark, which are very irritable dragon spirits at first sight.
Perhaps it was because of her gentle temperament that Longdao appointed Qixi Blue Bird as its envoy.
Although there is no such thing as wearing small shoes in the pure elf world, Tatsuno still warmly entertained the visiting Tanabata Blue Bird on behalf of the Qianlong Gym.
After a thoroughly enjoyable lunch, it was soon time to set off.
Xia Chen went on this trip to conquer the elves, while Long Yue went on this trip to bring back his Hack Dragon.
But Tatsuno did not go with him. Even he was not allowed to land on the island casually without anything special.
As a paradise without human existence, the Dragon Island envoy's way of leading the way is naturally the most primitive way of flying.
Although Xia Chen does not have flying elves, the most important thing in a gym is elves.
The riding elf that Long Ye lent him happened to be the elite desert dragonfly that Xia Chen defeated in the gym challenge.
Of course, there is no hatred between the two. If they had to have a hatred once they lost, then the world would probably be in chaos long ago.
On the contrary, perhaps because they didn't know each other before, Desert Dragonfly was one of the best elves to play with Xia Chen in the Qianlong Gym.
In short, riding on the desert dragonfly, Xia Chen and Long Yue followed the Chinese Valentine's Day bluebird and set off for the mysterious Dragon Island.
…………
The mystery does not refer to the geographical location of Dragon Island. After all, it is a large archipelago, and it is not easy to hide it.
However, even if the geographical location of Dragon Island is known, no one outside the Yulong family has ever boarded it throughout the ages.
The sea around Dragon Island is not only guarded by a large group of ferocious Gyarados all year round, but also has countless surging ocean currents and reefs.
The sky above the sea area around Dragon Island is shrouded in thunderstorms caused by Hackosaurs and Kuailosaurs all year round, making it impossible to enter.
Even if someone manages to get into it, those who face the intruders are countless dragon elves flying in the sky. They will not have a good face towards outsiders who break into Dragon Island without permission.
After countless poachers disappeared into this vast sea, Dragon Island became an urban legend that only existed in the ears of most people.
Shangjing City is very close to the sea. At the flying speed of the three elves, they entered the sea in less than half an hour.
But this is just the beginning of the entire journey.
He didn't know how long he had been flying over the boundless sea, until the angle of the sun became more and more oblique and the light became dimmer. Xia Chen finally saw a large, spectacular dark cloud at the end of his field of vision.
Xia Chen, who had read a lot of legends about Dragon Island before coming here, knew that Dragon Island should be under that dark cloud.
Xia Chen felt a little excited when he thought that a secret place that few people had ever visited was about to open its door to him.
Sure enough, after seeing the dark clouds, the Chinese Tanabata bluebird who was leading the way adjusted its original flight angle and began to fly diagonally downward.
The desert dragonfly under Xia Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief and began to speed up. Even with its physical strength, it would not be a problem to carry Xia Chen for half a day.
But flying for a long time is always boring, not to mention what’s going on with a desert dragonfly flying over the sea all the time...
Just like the most widespread urban legend, there really is a group of Gyarados in the sea around Dragon Island.
The density of Gyarados here is terrifyingly high, almost as common as Magikarp in ordinary rivers and lakes, Gyarados is as common in this sea area.
Xia Chen was still worried as he walked through the group of Gyarados who were looking at him with ferocious light in fear.
He believed that if it hadn't been for the Chinese Valentine's Day bluebird leading the way, he and the desert dragonfly would have been torn into pieces.
It’s no wonder why in the legend, those who want to land on Dragon Island never come back. In this battle, whoever comes and who doesn’t get lost in the lake...
And when they passed through the Gyarados sea area, an island with beautiful scenery finally appeared in front of Xia Chen in the sea fog.
Dragon Island has arrived.
…………
Setting foot on the ground again, Xia Chen experienced the feeling of being down-to-earth for the first time in a long time.
Now that he had arrived at his destination, he was not in a hurry to find his favorite elf, but planned to stop and rest for a while.
After flying all the way, both the desert dragonfly and myself were a little tired.
The Chinese Valentine's Day Blue Bird, which had completed its task of leading the way, waved its wings and said goodbye to Xia Chen and Long Yue.
"seven--"
Long Yue asked in surprise: "Why don't you take a break and come with us? We are also going to the main island."
Qixi Blue Bird quietly glanced at Xia Chen and shook his head.
Long Yue didn't notice this detail, but Xia Chen, whose mental strength was different from ordinary people, did, but he didn't show it, he just said politely: "Thank you for your hard work, Qixi Bluebird."
"Seven~"
The Tanabata Blue Bird nodded happily, then spread its wings and left here.
Looking at the Chinese Valentine's Day bluebird flying in the distance, Xia Chen touched his chin thoughtfully. What did her look mean just now?
It was hard for him to be on the same road with him, but he had to leave first, so there was nothing fishy about it.
However, since the dragons were gone, guessing was in vain. Xia Chen put back his miscellaneous thoughts and released Xianbu and the others who had been holding back all afternoon.
"Come out, guys!"
Several white lights flashed, and Senbu, Menas, Kirulian, and Zoroa appeared from the ball one after another.
Long Yue also released several elves she had brought with her on this trip. In addition to the Tanabata bluebird she rode all the way, there was also a gill ichthyosaur and a dragon-headed gopher.
One water dragon and one earth... steel, which can be regarded as making up for some of the attribute disadvantages of her Tanabata Blue Bird and Hack Dragon.
As soon as the Dragon Island envoy left, the leader was Long Yue, who had been to Dragon Island several times.
Looking at the setting sun hanging not far above the sea level, she made a decision, "Let's prepare dinner first."
