Both of them had the power of ordinary Guardian Gods before, and now, Mega Evolution has completely raised their strength by one level.
Other individual Higher Guardian Gods also came to be in this way, those ordinary Guardian Gods who once had good relations with the China Association, as long as they were willing to undergo Mega Evolution training with trainers they were on good terms with, had the chance to become Higher Guardian Gods.
Among them, some succeeded in the special training, and some failed.
Decades ago, the top combat power of countries was only one Higher Guardian God, but now, there are several Higher Guardian Gods.
Of course, this tactic is definitely being used by other countries as well.
Besides, there are normally Higher Guardian Gods like Latios and Latias that President Wen acquired.
Facing this level of combat power, Xiao Mai chose to use group battles to test her opponents.
Originally, even if it were six top-level combatants, the chance of winning a 6 vs 1 battle against a Higher Guardian God was extremely low.
But how, among He Xiaomai's six Pokémon, the core of the tactical system was the Prince of the Sea, Manafei.
As the Prince of the Sea, Manafei could perfectly integrate the power of Water-type Pokémon, and on Alliance Island, when playing team battles, they could even handle one or two battles against the top Guardian Gods of Alliance Island.
After sparring with Pokémon like Jirachi, Xiduolanen, Boreconine and others on Alliance Island, and then coming back to her own country to battle these Higher Guardian Gods, it wasn't too difficult for He Xiaomai and her team.
So, in the end, He Xiaomai even sparred with the Twelve Branches, President Wen, and others.
After a complete round, her strength stunned the entire upper echelon of the China Trainer Association.
From the top trainers who commanded ordinary Guardian God Level Power, to President Wen's ace Super Lucario, to the Latios and Latias that arrived with him, all were "tested" by He Xiaomai.
"This kid... is he letting us act as sparring partners for his disciple???"
President Wen, Fu Hei, Master Kong Hai, and others realized Fang Yuan's intention for having He Xiaomai test the Guardian God level combat power in China, their faces darkening.
Your Heart Source Style... when it comes to matters involving other people, you don't do anything at all, do you?
Though it was a bit excessive, whether it was stacking buffs for one-on-one duels or group brawls for team battles, He Xiaomai indeed tested the strength of each Guardian God participating in the China battles and sent the results to Fang Yuan.
Fang Yuan himself wanted to laugh after seeing it.
Members of other countries' World Championships probably don't know what the members of the China World Championship are doing, right?
The Champion, Shang Ren, is training with the Legendary Pokémon Tapu Koko.
The Fairy King, Xie Qingyi, is training with the High Legend X Deer.
The second team captain, He Xiaomai... has just knocked over all the Guardian Gods participating in China's battles...
Beyond that... Fang Yuan himself, is also helping Pokémon strive for the Legendary Realm, to "prepare" for the battle of the Guardian Gods.
This year is bound to be an unstable one...
The resources of the World Championship and the Battle of the Gods are probably all going to be monopolized by the China Association.
"Are you finished?"
Two days later, at the Day-Moon Forest Research Institute, after receiving another communication from He Xiaomai, Fang Yuan asked.
"I still have the Huge Dragonite and a few other top Guardian Gods left to battle..."
"Don't rush," Fang Yuan said.
To Fang Yuan, the power of these Guardian Gods wasn't important... in half a month, the strongest Guardian God might not be as powerful as the youngest team in his squad.
Whether they would get a chance to participate was another matter.
What he valued more was the growth of He Xiaomai, who he believed fully capable of rising to the level of a Pokémon World Champion.
Being strong oneself is the most important... without exaggeration, any Guardian God from any country on Earth might not be as strong as a top Champion team in the Pokémon World when all summed up.
The Pokémon World Championships only show a fraction of the Champions' strength, team battles are their forte, take Du's Dragon Legion for instance, although it can't contend with a High Legend, it can still suppress an ordinary Legendary Pokémon.
All the Guardian Gods that arrive with PY are heretics; strength in oneself is key, of course, unless you can entice a Legendary Pokémon to join...
As a trainer cultivated by Fang Yuan and the Prince of the Sea, He Xiaomai's capabilities have already outpaced other trainers by an entire version.
While other trainers are still using ordinary moves, she's already involved with Kyogre's Legendary Wave Power, as well as perfect team tactics with the Prince of the Sea.
The advantage must be maintained and transformed into absolute strength, Fang Yuan looks forward to the day she commands a Sea Legion powerful enough to suppress a Legendary Pokémon.
"None of this is the point, the key is your gains, and yeah, that Shui Jun," Fang Yuan added.
Shui Jun from The Lake of Purification, He Xiaomai has already made contact, and since she learned the power of enticement from Fang Yuan, she started talking shop with Shui Jun right from the get-go, spouting all sorts of titles like a trainer recognized by the God Pillar clan, the envoy of the Prince of the Sea, a student of the World Tree Guardian, a successor of the Waveguiding Lineage, which completely baffled Shui Jun.
With so many identities, coupled with Shui Jun discovering He Xiaomai's soul was indeed pure, it did not resist her, and the two managed to bond successfully.
However, Fang Yuan's task wasn't that simple; even if he didn't make Shui Jun join the team, the least he could do was direct Shui Jun to participate in a few battles, learn Cleansing Water and Power of the North Wind from opponents—that wouldn't be too much to ask, right? Only then would it be considered a true enticement.
To entice a Legendary Pokémon, learn Legendary skills, and then strengthen oneself, that's the essence of enticement; enticing Guardian Gods is just a trivial side path!
