After being reborn, Luyuan was forced to become a Trainer because he couldn't afford his tuition.
At first, he planned to take the 20,000-yen compensation offered by the Trainer Incentive Program and run for it right away.
But he never expected to reach the peak right out of the gate. After his debut battle, he caught the attention of powerful figures from all sides.
From then on,
Luyuan couldn't stop himself from forging ahead as a Trainer. Years later, after earning a host of titles and becoming a Pokemon Master, he gave a humble answer when reporters interviewed him: "Being a Trainer is too dangerous. I don't recommend that any newcomers try it. If you can study, I suggest you just knuckle down and hit the books."
"Then, Master Lu, why did you become a Trainer in the first place?"
Luyuan: "I just wanted to pay my tuition."
