Chapter 195 Return To The City Competition! (Please Subscribe!)
On March 10th, the main competition officially started. Su Chen and the others were ranked 12th, and Rival was Liming High School.
Easily passed the level seven to three and advanced to the top 16.
As for the top 16 advancing to the top 8, although the number one Pokémon University in Rencheng this year is extremely strong, we cannot be careless.
Su Chen easily eliminated Rival this time, instead of letting Lairon play, he put Prinplup on the field, and the result was an easy victory.
He is no longer on the same level as others.
In the blink of an eye, it was the drawing conference again, and Coach Luo showed the numbers on the note in his hand to everyone around him.
"1"
"We played in the first game, and our Rival this time was against Rencheng Wuzhong who also drew 1. Fortunately, it was not particularly strong."
"It seems that there is no suspense for our top eight."
15 minutes later, the top 16 battle list was released.
Rencheng No. 1 Pokémon University vs. Lee Hoku University
Beicheng vs Yuanhong University
Rencheng Second Pokémon University vs Shuoshui High School
Su Chen took a rough look at the match list and found that he had already guessed the top eight schools.
As for their Rival this time, Libei University only stayed in the top 16 last year and did not advance to the top eight, so its strength is limited.
In the individual competition, their captain is only in the top 32, and his strength is not outstanding.
Time soon came to the second round of the Rencheng High School Pokémon League.
Saturday, March 17th.
Su Chen and his team, the No. 1 Pokémon University in the city, came to the central gymnasium again.
This time the team competition was not as lively as the individual competition.
All the previous posters were also removed and replaced with new posters that were a bit crude.
After sitting down in the front two rows, we were in a familiar environment again.
Looking around, most of them are acquaintances, and they are all veterans now.
Their mentality has also changed. At this time last year, they faced this battle with a desperate mentality, and the final result did not disappoint.
They advanced to the quarterfinals for the first time and made history.
Their goal this year is the semifinals, no matter who Rival is.
This time, there are still several staff sitting next to the stadium on the technical table to collect statistics, and there is also a referee and host.
This time the Host is still the beautiful Nami.
After the time was almost up, Nami stood up, picked up the microphone and said:
"Good morning, dear viewers, today is a nice day, and the second round of our Rencheng High School Pokémon League is about to begin.
"I now declare the second round to officially begin."
"In the first match between Rencheng's No. 1 Pokémon University and Leebuk High School, we invite the No. 1 player from both sides.
"Bah bang bang!"
Amidst the applause from the audience, one person from 193 Rencheng No. 1 Pokémon University and Libei High School stood up and walked onto the stadium amid the cheers of the team.
The No. 10 position on Su Chen's side is Na Riqin, and his Rival is a woman.
That Riqin uses Luxio and is now level 25.
【Pokémon】: Luxio
【Attribute】: electric
【Talent】:★★
[Level]:Iv25
【Ability】: Intimidate
[Skills]: Tackle (Proficiency), Leer (Proficiency), Charge (Proficiency), Spark (Proficiency), Bite (Proficiency), Roar (Proficiency), Yuantong (Proficiency), Bluff (Proficiency), Thunder Fang(Specialized), Crunch(Specialized), Charge Beam(Proficient), Thunderbolt(Proficient)
The girl on the opposite side used a Pidegeotto of the same level 25, and was defeated easily by that day.
Game 1: No. 1 Pokémon University in Rencheng: Liboku High School = 1:0
After the day cooled down, Zhang Haocheng took over, playing the ninth position.
He is still using his Trump Card—Tauros, which is now level 25, but it is a pity that he lost.
Pokémon University: Libei University = 1:1
In the third game, the first Pokémon University in Rencheng was Liu Yifei, who won the third game easily.
Pokémon University: Libei University = 2:1
In the next fourth game, Yang Ying won, with a cumulative score of 3 to 1.
The sixth position is Xiao Yao, and he loses another game, and the battle is 3-2.
In the end, Zhang Foshan in the fifth position lost another game, and the battle was 3-3.
From Cao Yanyan onwards, they have won all the way. Watching Ye Wanyu walk down from the stadium, they have won six games in total at the first Pokémon University in Rencheng.
Libei University has already lost the fight here, but the competition still has to be played.
Seat 1 - Su Chen walked onto the Stadium amidst bird-like applause from the audience.
The moment he walked up, the number of people in the live broadcast room surged crazily, and the original live broadcast room with 100,000 people instantly reached 150,000 people.
"When Su Chen plays, I like to watch Su Chen's battle, even if Rival is a weak chicken."
"I have to say that Rencheng's No. 1 Pokémon University is really strong this year. At this time last year, it was difficult for them to score 16 and make eight.
The captain of Libei High School is a girl with dark skin and strong body.
When she came up, she said, "I know I'm not your Rival, but I won't give up.
The referee announced: "Both parties, please release the Pokémon."
The black-skinned girl and Su Chen took out Pokémon and threw them out.
"Kou Jie~"
Haunter appears in Soaring in the sky (agff) and starts circling in the air as soon as he comes out.
Su Chen also saw the Pokémon of the black-skinned girl in Rival——Floatzel.
Floatzel's body is orange. Only the lower face, belly, eyebrows, palms and the tip of the tail are beige.
The float on its neck is connected to the back of its body, there are blue fins on the back of its hands, two black stripes beside its mouth, and a pattern of water droplets on its stomach.
Male Floatzels have two bumps on their backs, while sexual Floatzels have only one bump.
Su Chen opened the data panel and scanned it.
【Pokémon】: Floatzel
【Attribute】:water
【Talent】:★★★
【Grade】:Iv26
【Ability】:Water curtain
【Skills】: Aqua Ring (specialized), Ice Fang (specialized), Quick Attack (specialized), Water Sport (proficient), Sonic Boom (proficient), Growl (proficient), Water Gun (specialized), Aqua Jet (proficient), Pursuit (specialized), Swift (specialized)
Floatzel lives in a large number of fishing villages, rescuing drowning villagers, or helping them carry fish they have caught.
It has long and large floating sacs, which become developed in the process of chasing prey in the water.
It can float on the water with its well-developed floating bladder, and it will not drown even if it encounters a storm at sea.
When the floating bag is inflated, people can ride on it like a rubber boat, and when the floating bag is dry, it can be submerged into the water.
Floatzel looks warily at Haunter in Soaring in the sky.
This guy has an extremely dangerous aura, not an easy guy to deal with.
The referee announced: "The battle begins!"
The two Pokémon sprang into action.
"Snorkeling Itachi, use the Water Gun!"
"Haunter, use Hypnosis!"
"Kou Jie~"
Haunter moved quickly towards Floatzel.
At the same time, yellow rays of light bloomed in the eyes.
Hypnosis!
"Floatzel, don't look into Haunter's eyes."
It's a pity that it's already too late, the Haunter is flying towards it head-on, and it won't do if it doesn't catch it.
So he looked into Gastly's eyes, and felt sleepy at the same time.
The water flow that had been condensed in the body also dissipated directly, and he just froze in place.
"Floatzel! Wake up!"
"Snorkeling Weasel!"
No matter how much the green-steel girl shouted, there was no movement at all.
"Haunter, use Night Shade!"
"Kou Jie~"
Haunter showed a cruel smile, and a dark steel-colored figure instantly condensed from behind it. The Body Press came out.
It struck Floatzel's body with lightning speed.
"boom!"
The night exploded, and Floatzel was blown away.
After such a blast, Floatzel Smelling Salts came over, puffed up its cheeks and sprayed out a jet of water.
But it can't hit the Haunter at all. It comes and goes without a trace, just like a normal ghost. It's really easy to scare people in the dark.
Floatzel's speed is still not fast enough, and the water column it sprays cannot hit Rival at all, and now it is being tricked by Haunter.
The black-skinned girl finally feels the strength of the strongest college student in Rencheng. No matter how much you want to defeat it, there is no way.
Next, Haunter continues to attack while playing with Floatzel.
Floatzel was extremely exhausted from all the hard work.
"Haunter, give it the final blow with Shadow Punch."
"Kou Jie~"
Haunter appeared behind Floatzel in the next second, and then his fists were covered in purple flames.
The cold breath surged onto Floatzel's body, causing him to shiver.
Then he turned around and saw Haunter's ferocious smile.
"Koujie~"
Then Haunter punched Floatzel with both fists.
"Bang bang!"
The purple flames on both fists also exploded on its body, and it was knocked away directly. It fell to the ground and passed out, losing the ability to fight.
"Floatzel!" the dark-skinned girl exclaimed.
The referee announced: "Floatzel is disabled and Haunter wins."
"So the winner is Su Chen."
Haunter said he had a great time, spinning around in the air and sticking out his tongue and making faces at the audience.
Some viewers were immediately amused by its appearance.
Suddenly a force burst out from its body.
It quickly circulates to every corner of the body, and it feels that its physical strength is rapidly recovering and its strength is getting stronger.
It has been upgraded!
Su Chen also saw this scene.
【Pokémon】: Haunter(Eviolite)
【Attribute】: Ghost
【Talent】:★★★★★
【Level】:Iv26→Iv27
【Ability】: floating
[Skills]: Hypnosis (specialized), Lick (specialized), Spite (skilled), Steel Gaze (skilled), Curse (rough), Night Shade (specialized), Confuse Ray (specialized), Shadow Punch (Specialization), Sucker Punch (Specialization), Payback (Specialization), Hex (Specialization), Will-O-Wisp (Proficiency)
The level is the same as Prinplup again, and at the same time, level 27 is getting closer and closer to evolution.
In the game, Haunter needs communication to evolve, but there is still Gengar appearing in the wild without communication, which shows that it can evolve without communication.
He searched online and found that Haunter can evolve into Gengar around level 32.
His Haunter talent is five-star, and it is expected to evolve faster. He speculates that he can evolve at level 30.
There is also the skill Will-O-Wisp, which has been available for several months.
Everyone has been trained to mastery by it.
But Will-O-Wisp is still at the proficiency level. It can now condense ten groups of Will-O-Wisp in a very short period of time, but it has not yet entered the specialization level.
Such a skill does not seem to be Normal. I feel like there is something else that can be explored.
In the tenth game, the No. 1 Pokémon University in Rencheng won. Su Chen and the others once again reached the quarterfinals with 7-3 this time.
After the black-skinned girl took back the Pokémon, she walked back to the rest area in a daze.
The team asked worriedly: "Are you okay? It doesn't look good."
The dark-skinned girl said in despair: "It's too strong. I'm not Rival at all. I feel like our levels are about the same. Why is there such a big gap?"
"It's so hopeless, I feel like I can't beat it no matter what I do.
The teammates were a little frightened and asked: "Is it so scary?"
After Su Chen came down, everyone also celebrated, but they were not as excited as last year.
Coach Luo was not so happy at this time, because the next battle was the most critical.
Last year they fell outside the semi-finals, and this year they will break through no matter what.
Su Chen sat in the audience watching the match between Beicheng and Yuanhong High School.
His focus was on Zhang Xiuxian. Zhang Xiuxian had indeed changed a lot since losing to him.
He is no longer as arrogant as before, as if he has returned to normal Contest Condition.
I also started to communicate with my classmates.
Su Chen nodded with satisfaction. It is estimated that Zhang Xiuxian will become stronger after returning to normal.
But he doesn't feel pressure, because the stronger he is, the more challenging the next battle will be.
He was somewhat looking forward to the next battle and how much Chang Xiuxian's strength would improve.
After two days of fighting, all eight games were over.
The final eight are all out.
They are: Rencheng First Pokémon University, Overseas Chinese High School, Rencheng Second Pokémon University, Warren University, Rencheng Dongcheng, Ruyang University, Foreign Languages University, and Beicheng.
At the same time, after a lottery on Sunday night, Rival, the number one Pokémon University in the city, is a foreign language university.
He is very strong. He is a seed player in the top eight almost every year and has never fallen.
But it has never entered the semi-finals and has always been very stable.
After a while, the battle lists of the other three groups also came out.
Game 1: Qiao Zhong vs Beicheng
Game 2: Rencheng Second Pokémon University vs. Ruyang University.
Game 3: Warren High School vs. Rencheng Dongcheng.
Game 4: Rencheng No. 1 Pokémon University vs. Foreign Languages University.
Inside the battle arena on Friday night.
Coach Luo looked at everyone and said: "Our goal this year is to be in the semi-finals. Tomorrow is the most critical battle.
“Last year we fell at the gate of the semi-finals, this year we have to cross over no matter what.
"The strength of foreign language universities will only be stronger than last year's Yuanhong University."
"So I hope everyone can take it seriously."
Everyone looked serious after hearing this. This was a crucial battle for whether their city's number one Pokémon University could advance to the semi-finals. No one dared to be careless.
Coach Luo said seriously: "In order to advance to the semi-finals, our playing list needs to be adjusted."
"The positions five to eight need topsy-turvy. Zhang Foshan, you play the eight position, Xiao Yao, the seven position, Yang Ying, you play the six position, and Liu Yifei, you play the five position.
Zhang Foshan nodded and said: "Okay, coach, I have no problem."
Xiao Yao crossed his shoulders and said, "I have no objection."
Yang Ying Solaceon said: "I have no problem either."
Liu Yifei raised her hand and said, "I have no problem."
Coach Luo said: "As long as everyone has no objections, others are still in their original positions. I believe that through our efforts, we will definitely advance to the semi-finals.
"Do you have any confidence?"
Everyone: "Yes!"
Everyone shouted out, their voices loud and firm.
In a barbecue restaurant on the other side, two boys were eating barbecue together.
One of them was tall and thick-haired, and looked like a bear.
The other one has a well-proportioned figure, but looks a bit petite next to the man next to him. He wears glasses and looks elegant.
The gentle boy took a bite of the skewers and said, "Brother Xiong, the quarterfinals are about to start tomorrow. Rival is the number one Pokémon university in any city. Do you think we can win?"
Brother Xiong took a big sip of happy water and said: "Of course we can win. Apart from Su Chen, Ye Wanyu, and Yue Liang, they are the number one Pokémon University in the city. The others may not be able to win."
It turns out that these two people are the captain and vice-captain of the Foreign Languages College.
Sven Man sighed and said: "That's what I say, but unfortunately the three of them are too strong and can directly bring three victories."
