Chapter 868: Chapter 1085: Champion Lucario
Seeing John bragging about his grandson again, everyone had already gotten used to it—and by now it could hardly even be called bragging.
Just thinking about how this old geezer actually had such an outstanding grandson as Julian made everyone present feel their teeth ache with envy.
The heirs of their own families were, of course, exceptionally excellent too. Even if they fell slightly short when compared to the heirs of other families, the gap wasn't that big.
But when compared to Julian, those heirs might as well be thrown away—there was simply no comparison at all.
Julian had now become the classic "other people's child" everyone talked about.
Not to mention, John's son, Jake, was also a Champion.
With the Walker family now boasting three Champions in one household, every family in Drakoria was jealous to the point of turning purple.
If this were ancient times, it would be like a single clan producing three prime ministers.
Back then, aristocratic families took pride in the official ranks their members held in court.
Nowadays, families naturally took pride in their Trainer ranks.
For a family to produce even three Elite-level Trainers in a single generation would already be considered an ancestral blessing of the highest order—let alone three Champions.
Damn, who knew where the Walker family's ancestral tomb was buried? Was there still space beside it? I want to move my family's graves over there too.
Knock, knock, knock.
The door of the conference room was suddenly knocked on.
James frowned slightly and said, "Come in."
Conference Room No. 1 was not to be interrupted mid-meeting unless there was an emergency, so since someone knocked, something urgent must have happened.
"Grand Elder, Champion Walker has come out of the secret realm. He also brought out a completely golden Lilligant. Instruments show it's a mid-stage Champion."
"Also, after Champion Walker emerged, his Lucario immediately broke through and became a Champion tier Pokémon."
Seeing so many high-ranking figures present, the staff member didn't dare ramble and immediately reported everything in one breath.
"My good grandson is out! And Lucario became a Champion! Hahaha! Wonderful! Just as expected of my grandson!"
John laughed loudly, stood up, and walked straight out of the meeting room.
No one stopped him. The meeting was basically finished anyway, and now that Julian had returned, it could end early.
After Julian came out, they could organize the second batch of people to enter for exploration and also obtain the data Julian had gathered this time.
At the entrance of the Primal Secret Realm, Julian looked at Lucario, who had advanced to the Champion tier, with surprise—and also a strange feeling.
Last time, Dragonite had also advanced to the Champion tier right after he came out, and this time Lucario had done the same.
Looking at the people around who were pressed onto the ground by the surging aura caused by Lucario's breakthrough, Julian felt slightly sympathetic.
They were all from the previous batch—so this was the second time they had been crushed.
Lying on the ground under the intense Champion-level pressure, these people felt both excited and speechless.
After all, it was rare in this world to personally witness a Pokémon breaking through to the Champion tier. Yet they had seen it—and twice at that.
It was just… far too embarrassing. Both times they had been pinned to the ground.
"Lucario, congratulations."
At this moment, snow was falling from the sky. As the snowflakes descended, Julian and Lucario looked at each other, and the aura resonance between them reached one hundred percent compatibility.
Although their compatibility had been high before, it had never reached perfection—it had always been around ninety-nine percent.
"Luca~"
Lucario nodded. In a trance, it remembered that even when it was still an egg, it had sensed Julian's aura, and the two had chosen each other.
After fighting side by side all the way until now, it had finally become a Champion.
The surging power within its body fascinated Lucario—so this was what being a Champion felt like.
It could now take on at least ten of its former self.

It didn't directly jump several levels—only one, and Julian wasn't surprised.
Given Lucario's accumulated foundation, it could have chosen to raise itself to at least level 93, but it only advanced to level 91 and didn't consume its reserves.
If it had risen to level 93, most of the reserves it had built up would have been consumed, and to improve further, it would have needed to start building that foundation again from scratch.
Moreover, if the level jump was too large, the time required to adapt and fully master its own body would also be considerably extended.
Taking everything into consideration, Lucario chose to only advance to level 91, retaining the majority of its reserves. Afterwards, it would only need a certain amount of time to adapt to its body, which had experienced a surge in power.
"So this is the outside world?"
Lilligant was curiously observing everything outside. To it, everything here was unfamiliar—even the trash outside seemed novel.
However—
"The energy here is so sparse. I don't like it."
"Of course, the energy outside can't compare to the secret realm you came from. You'll get used to it after adapting for a few days," Julian explained.
In terms of energy density, secret realms were indeed more suitable for Pokémon to grow.
But that only applied to Intermediate-level secret realms and above; the energy density in Beginner-level secret realms was actually quite similar to the outside world.
"To possess such strength even when living in the outside world, you really are impressive."
"Of course. I'm telling you—in the outside world, there isn't a single person who can fight me."
Julian said boastfully, nose tilted high in the air.
