Pokémon: My Dad is Kyurem

Chapter 119 Limitations of Realms

Qi Hao watched as Motor Lizard and Tianyu jumped off the edge of the rooftop together...

For some reason, he also really wanted to try dancing.

I think I'll pass; this place is towering into the clouds.

Li Linfeng was called away by Lie Kongzuo alone, as if there was something he needed to deal with.

"Old Motorcycle is gone?" Li Lingkong took a chair and sat down next to Qi Hao. "It's good that he's gone. After all, he's wanted to go out and see the world for a long time."

"Do you two have a good relationship?" Qi Hao squatted down, looking at the horizon. He felt that he and the Motor Lizard would meet again.

"Not bad, he's the best commander in Sky Tower besides me." He took out a can of cocktail from his watch and started drinking it.

"He was already in the Sky Tower before I was born. It's strange, he didn't even have any combo moves, yet he was born to break the limits of a champion." As he spoke, Qi Hao looked puzzled.

“That’s true, you can’t access it yet. Let me explain it to you in detail.” He asked Qi Hao to sit down next to him.

"If you want to break through to the Heavenly King level, you need to master a skill to an unparalleled degree so that you can control energy to the required standard." He said slowly, taking sips of wine every now and then.

"The champion, on the other hand, needs to combine skills of different attributes to reach the level of what is called a move."

"To give a counterexample: Just like Song Chenggong's Lucario's ten moves, he was only one move away from being able to create his own move, but he couldn't train that move, so he was stuck at the Elite Four limit."

"To give another positive example, take my self-created skill, Dragon Scale Break. It's a combination of Dragon and Flying types."

"Combining Reverse Scale with Ultimate Impact, by concentrating all the energy of Reverse Scale into one point and then unleashing Ultimate Impact, the destructive power is comparable to a large-scale destructive weapon." He spoke calmly, knowing that the destructive power of the skill would only become more and more exaggerated after the Heavenly King level.

"Hmm, I can do similar things too. Is it difficult?" Qi Hao only half understood. The issue of proficiency was never a problem for him.

Li Lingkong casually tossed aside the finished cocktail and took out another bottle: "I gave two examples, but you still don't seem to understand."

“That’s true. After all, I didn’t go into detail about Song Chenggong’s example, so it’s understandable that you don’t understand.” He sighed. Song Chenggong was his contemporary, and he was the first to become a superstar.

But in the end, he, who came from a commoner background, was surpassed by those who possessed the inheritance, as well as Duan Gangshan and Mo Ziyou, and Song Chenggong was stuck at the Heavenly King limit for several years.

"The most important thing is willpower. Only when your willpower is truly worthy of your combo skills can you have the qualifications to break through to the championship. For example, although my combo skills contain the part of Outrage, my Pokémon can use them without being affected by their mind."

"Then I just won't use these skills that affect my mind, right?" Qi Hao's thoughts always hit the nail on the head in times like these.

But is it really that simple?

"No, it's not that not using these kinds of skills won't have an impact. Rather, skills that are powerful enough will all have an effect." He paused here, seemingly weighing something, and put down the wine jar in his hand.

"Song Chenggong... When he first let Lucario use the final move of the Ten Techniques, a big accident happened. At that time, he was in a match, and his opponent was an old gentleman who had been at the Champion level for decades. Song Chenggong was already in a situation where he was about to lose."

"At that time, he chose to let Lucario use that move. I could feel it very clearly. Lucario's momentum surged, surged wildly, surged powerfully! Kill kill kill kill kill! That momentum was more than fifty times stronger than Lucario at any other time!" Li Lingkong's tone was a bit exaggerated, but his expression became more composed.

"Isn't this great? It sounds much stronger." Qi Hao looked at Li Lingkong, who had changed his expression, and was very puzzled.

"You don't think 'kill kill kill kill kill!' is an adjective, do you?" Li Lingkong closed his eyes, his smile a little stiff.

"Because Lucario's will cannot control the skills, he was controlled by the skills instead. The berserk Lucario first crippled the opponent's Pokémon, then broke through the barrier to attack the audience. In the end, I had to intervene to stop Lucario. Fortunately, I intervened in time and no one was injured."

"Is it that serious?" Qi Hao fell silent for a moment. If one's will cannot control a skill, then one can be controlled by the skill? This was the first time he had heard such a statement, and his plans for the future were disrupted.

"After that, the authorities first blocked the news, then Song Chenggong, the president of the North Campus, was temporarily not allowed to appear in front of the public. That move was directly listed as a forbidden technique and could not be used during the competition. The public opinion caused by attacking the audience could only be worn down by time."

"Recently, a video of Song Chenggong fighting you was uploaded online. Although there are still some people who know the inside story, at least Song Chenggong's reputation is still good." He looked at the news on his watch. The news read: "The Heavenly King of the People, who has faded from people's sight, has never stopped fighting!"

"What a clickbait title, but it's actually quite inspiring." He then opened the comments section and couldn't help but laugh when he saw the first comment.

"(????)? Hahaha! This is outrageous! Someone's filed a real-name report accusing Song Chenggong of bullying an 11-year-old kid, and now there are others following suit and filing reports too! I'm dying of laughter! The internet is so interesting!" Li Lingkong clutched his stomach, clearly laughing so hard his stomach hurt.

Qi Hao leaned closer: "(?w?) I also filed a formal complaint. At the scene, I was the one who was bullied."

After a while, Li Lingkong finally stopped laughing, as he was already out of breath: "Ahem, now let's get back to business. Old Motorcycle is different from us. It is said that he has always been at the peak of the sect leader, although he usually likes to cut off a few tails to demote himself to the champion level."

"What are the conditions for the sect leader to break through?" Qi Hao was very concerned about this question, as it could save him a lot of detours.

"I don't know, but the first sect leader left behind a saying." Li Lingkong took a sip of wine to clear his throat: "Let your will surpass your moves, so as to reach a realm beyond divine skill."

"What level? Don't just say half of what you mean!" Qi Hao said anxiously. He hated people who didn't want him to be a "broken chapter dog" and those who wouldn't let him be one.

"Um, the first sect leader named this realm 'Slightly Understand'." Li Lingkong said, embarrassed, while Qi Hao was even more stunned.

As expected of a senior, that was definitely a masterful display of swagger back then! But have you considered how awkward it might be for younger generations to read it aloud?

“But I can tell you for sure that Old Motorcycle doesn’t have skills at that level.” Li Lingkong stopped the question, then took another can of wine. This time, he handed it to Qi Hao, who hadn’t finished it yet. “Try it? It’s not very strong, so it won’t be a problem for a kid to drink a little.”

Qi Hao pushed the wine away and turned his attention to the system panel, adding casually, "If you still want this tower, I suggest you don't let me touch any alcohol."

Li Lingkong nodded awkwardly and put the wine away. He had only been joking; minors shouldn't drink alcohol.

While cocktails are just drinks for most people, well… except for Qi Hao, where something terrifying might happen. (Except for the author too (?w? ))

On the system panel, Qi Hao finally understood why the Motor Lizard had no level restrictions.
