The flight training equipment was a super powerful fan. The fan alone had a diameter of 4 meters and was fixed to the wall of the training ground.

The fan was connected to a separate room, and there were many pinhole-sized vents above the room.

The maximum wind force inside could reach level 7. A level 7 wind is equivalent to hurricane level, often causing trees to be blown down and people to be blown away on TV.

In higher-level training grounds, there were even electric fans capable of producing level 15 wind force.

The floor and walls were covered with a thick layer of sound-absorbing sponge. This was to prevent the sound of the fan's rotation from interfering with the outside world's normal operation. Additionally, the high-quality sponge padding could effectively cushion flying Pokémon when they were exhausted, preventing them from crashing directly into the ground and causing secondary injuries.

This flight training room also had a control panel with levers marked for wind levels 1-7.

By pulling the corresponding lever for the wind level, the powerful fan could create an unending hurricane.

However, level 6 wind force was marked with heavy red exclamation marks.

Level 7 wind force was even marked with a black skull.

And there was a note on the markings: {Wind forces of levels 6 and 7 are relatively dangerous for Pokémon and are not recommended for direct use.}

{When using the flight training room, one should proceed gradually, not rushing, to avoid causing injury to the Pokémon.}

Qingwu whispered something to Zubat, then exited the flight training room. After checking that the training room door was closed, Qingwu started the flight training room switch.

Level one, level two, level three, the wind force continuously increased. Zubat went from being at ease at the beginning to struggling somewhat.

In a tailwind situation, Zubat could better feel the changes brought by different wind forces and experience the power of wind.

To be honest, if Qingwu were to follow the theory, with a level 7 wind and maintaining it for over thirty minutes, Zubat would have a 70% chance of learning the Normal-type move Swift and a 50% chance of learning the Flying-type move Brave Bird.

Five minutes passed. Qingwu watched Zubat visibly struggling in the level 5 wind.

Zubat used all its strength, flapping its wings desperately, and using the tailwind to overcome wind resistance and increase its speed, so it wouldn't be blown against the wall.

"Zubat, prepare to start level 6 wind," Qingwu said into the microphone after seeing Zubat had adapted to the level 5 wind, relaying the message to Zubat training in the flight training room.

With the activation of the level 6 wind, Zubat immediately felt a completely different sensation.

The turbulence created by the strong wind interfered with Zubat's normal operation. Zubat felt like a lonely boat on a stormy sea, struggling desperately in the wind and rain.

This wasn't the main point. The main point was that in the level 6 wind, fist-sized tennis balls would occasionally fall.

These highly elastic tennis balls were like rolling stones. If Zubat wasn't careful, they would hit it.

If it were hit directly, Zubat's bones might even break.

What Qingwu was testing was merely the duration Zubat could withstand in a level 6 wind. As for level 7 wind, Qingwu ultimately did not dare to try.

At this time, the gravity in the gravity room was already at 3x gravity. Aron was struggling to support itself in the 3x gravity room, its limbs trembling, but Aron was still gritting its teeth and persevering.

"Learn from the clumsy bird." This was the concept Qingwu taught Aron, that diligence can make up for lack of talent.

Even Pokémon with the worst potential can achieve remarkable results as long as they work hard.

Aron's high self-expectations in the past were what allowed it to reach Trainer King level after losing a part of its foundation.

Qingwu actually had a wild ambition in his heart. Besides being able to regain his previous life's Trainer King strength, Qingwu actually wanted to go even further.

When Qingwu trained Pokémon, his heart was very ruthless. Qingwu also had a method for quickly restoring a Pokémon's strength.

As a master breeder, Qingwu could also discern a Pokémon's limits.

Therefore, Qingwu saw that Aron and Zubat were reaching a critical state and quickly stopped the gravity room and flight training room switches.

As expected, just as the two little Pokémon were about to collapse, the training equipment stopped. Both little ones lay on the ground, unable to move.

"Rest first, recover your strength," Qingwu set Aron's goal at being able to comfortably handle 4x gravity in the gravity room.

Qingwu set Zubat's goal at being able to last 15 minutes in a level 6 wind.

Qingwu had observed that Aron couldn't endure 3x gravity for long just now, and Zubat had exhausted itself in less than 3 minutes in a level 6 wind.

Qingwu also needed to specially prepare Energy Cubes that could help them withstand the pressure, so that their foundation would not be damaged during high-intensity training.

"Aron, you must carefully sense the gravitational field. How can you fully utilize your Steel-type Pokémon's attribute? After all, the magnetic field has attraction and repulsion," Qingwu knew that the Pokémon that understood magnetic fields the most were probably Magnezone and Probopass.

These two types of Pokémon could effortlessly use the move Gravity and float in the air using Magnet Rise.

"Zubat, you must fully sense the direction of the wind flow. Tail Wind can not only reduce wind resistance and increase your flying speed, but also allow you to sense the wind's speed," Qingwu instructed Zubat.

"Once you're rested, continue training," Qingwu watched the two little ones busy training and considered whether he should start raising a third Pokémon. Of course, the earlier a Pokémon is raised, the more beneficial it is.

In Qingwu's opinion, the Rocket Gang's trial was like playing house. Once they left the training ground, the fighting would become even more intense.

The struggles within the Rocket Gang, the conflicts between the Rocket Gang and the Alliance, and the battles between the Rocket Gang and other underground organizations in other regions – all of these would involve a large number of personnel and a large number of deaths.

Weak people would not see tomorrow in the Rocket Gang. Everyone had to wrap themselves in a layer of steel, sealing their soft hearts beneath iron thorns.

Only with this layered protection, where rationality outweighed emotion, could one preserve oneself.

Although Qingwu wanted to raise a third Pokémon, Qingwu, who was very picky about Pokémon potential, felt that this might be a difficult task.

Quality over quantity. This was Qingwu's standard.

Since the second gathering of the trial base was approaching, Qingwu could only wait until the gathering was over before exploring the entire trial island.

"Boss, that Qingwu is back," the young Kuraki was stroking his Arbok's scales, which were cold and slippery.

"Should we teach him a lesson?" a trial participant with dyed yellow hair said fawningly.

"No one make a move. He's very strong, don't provoke him," the current Kuraki was the leader of the largest group among the trial participants. The number of Pokémon in his group was also extremely large.

Kuraki's group earned points by catching Pokémon and digging for treasures. Kuraki's Arbok also benefited greatly.

A larger black python, its jaw was golden. Seviper's head and back were covered with golden armor, and it had six small golden buttons on its belly.

It had sharp red fangs and a tail like a blade.

This was a new Pokémon Kuraki had caught. Kuraki was obsessed with snake Pokémon. Powerful snake Pokémon were Kuraki's pursuit.
