There is often a big gap between imagination and reality, just like the pictures and real objects posted by businesses when advertising. Ma Li, who came to Qidao from Galar, gradually discovered the "truth" of Qidao.
Life on Qidao is a bit more laid-back and lazy.
During the harvest season, everyone went out to pick fruits for several consecutive days. After completing the picking goal, the busy Qidao suddenly entered a quite leisurely state.
When I was still in Galar, countless Galar trainers knew Qidao because of Luther. After learning that there was a champion resident on Qidao, they always felt that powerful trainers were fighting against each other every day.
However, in fact, it will take a long time before there is a battle in the large arena.
After Ma Li and others arrived, knowing that Ma Li and the others were looking forward to the championship showdown, Dawu and A'du personally went off to play a one-on-one match, which ended with Kuailong narrowly defeating Metagross.
Champions never compete with high intensity every day. Instead, after finishing a battle, they begin to digest the results of the battle and wait until they gain new insights before starting a new battle.
"If you fight more times, you will definitely become stronger, so I think the fastest way to improve is by setting up an arena." A'Du said with a smile.
There are no frequent battles, and the people on the island just eat and drink almost every day.
A'Du and Dawu could play chess all day, or they could suddenly disappear for a whole day, only to return to Qidao in the evening carrying a sack of stones.
Kikuno, who has completely entered retirement mode, keeps a large number of large milk tanks on his ranch.
In his spare time, he would plant fruit trees with Akui, and when the time came, he would personally prepare food for the big milk pots.
Recently, Kikuno also accepted Luther's suggestion and planned to reclaim some land by himself and use it specifically to grow vegetables. Anyway, his ground elf plowing is a good hand and it can come in handy.
As for Luther... Mary was very cautious at first, worried that Luther's education would be too harsh and she wouldn't be able to adapt to it.
However, after arriving at Qidao, Ma Li found that this worry was completely unnecessary.
Ma Li saw the scene where Acerola and Luther bickered several times.
Luther and Acerola often had long debates over the contents of some books, and both sides quoted scriptures in order to refute each other.
Ma Li was confused at first by Acerola's behavior of not taking her master seriously.
"Master, he likes disciples who have the ability to think on their own and don't just follow his opinions."
"He wants us to surpass him."
Acerola understood this a long time ago, but at that time she had not accumulated enough knowledge and experience, so she always just chose to listen.
Now, she has learned how to think independently.
Shijana was able to stop imitating Luther's fighting style and began to explore her own style of play, which made Luther very happy.
Luther did not agree with the ebb and flow theory put forward by Arcelora, but this did not prevent him from recognizing the rationality of this statement.
Now that Shijana is about to leave the island and start traveling, Acerola has begun to regard herself as her senior sister, so she took Mari's hand and told her with a smile.
"Don't worry that Master won't teach you the key points. As long as he is willing to teach you, it will be without reservation."
Between what she said, Ma Li felt that Acerola had recognized her as her junior sister, but Luther never said he wanted to accept her as his apprentice.
Perhaps he was concerned about his brother Nie Zi’s face, or perhaps the places were limited and first come, first served.
After all, Luther said before that he did not have that much energy to teach multiple disciples at the same time.
However, observing Luther's lazy daily life, Mary really didn't know where Luther spent his energy.
Oonio was lucky, because he had the same attribute as Acerola's specialization, so he was directly recruited by Luther as his disciple, and he was also handed over to Acerola to teach him very easily.
So this shy guy can't even wear a mask now, because Acerola said the mask is in the way, and he has to put his hands in when he wants to pinch his face.
At first, Oonio complained to Luther. After Luther turned a blind eye, Oonio had no choice but to accept his fate.
Seeing Arcelora reaching out, Onio's last stubborn move was to turn his head and close his eyes.
But gradually, this behavior, which Ma Li thought was nonsense, had a good effect.
Onio gradually adapted to daily life without a mask, because the awkwardness of being bullied by Acerola prompted him to learn to resist Acerola's "atrocities" in a low voice.
This is a huge change for Ouño, who used to just dodge when seeing people and apologize immediately when others had opinions.
After understanding that Luther was helping Onio correct his overly shy character, Ma Li couldn't help but wonder, what kind of method would be used to help Luther, who specializes in evil?
Mary came to Sirona's yard with Molubek in her arms. Luther was sitting in the rocking chair, enjoying the comfort of the autumn breeze.
Seeing Ma Li appear, Luther smiled and called her to come to him, and then gave her three elf balls.
"You should have adapted to life on the island now. Now I will give you these elves. You can establish a relationship with them first, and then start to understand the evil elves through them."
Although his brother Nie Zi is a trainer who specializes in evil, Qibana, who even his brother can't defeat, is just a piece of cake for Luther...
Ma Li didn't hesitate, took the elf ball and released the elf inside.
Heluga, Bankilas, and Darkrai all learned about this from Luther in advance, so they gathered around Mari as soon as they got out of the elf ball.
Even though Ma Li's expression was scarce, she still looked panicked because of surprise.
Seeing the three elves looking at her, Ma Li's voice was trembling.
"I...can't command..."
"They will all listen to you. There is nothing to do if you stay with me. Every day is quite boring. I just want to find something for them to do."
Luther also found it interesting that these three elves were brought up by Luther. Little by little, they became famous in various regions and became elves that cannot be ignored.
But what they have to do now is to grow up together with Ma Li, and let them lead Ma Li to become stronger little by little.
What the two experienced was exactly the opposite.
Ma Li still had some doubts about the fact that such a powerful elf truly obeyed her.
"Banjiras, get down?"
Ma Li asked tentatively without confidence.
Bankelas lay on the ground without saying a word, looking at Mary with a blank expression, as if he wanted to know why he did this.
Bankiras, who was like a god of war and forced the three elves of Qibana to fall, really did as he was told!
Ma Li, who was a little embarrassed by Bankiras's gaze, turned to look at Darkrai.
Darkrai said coldly: "Let me get down and I will strike."
