"Hiss~, it looks so painful." Gongsun Yan looked at the scene in front of him and suddenly felt a phantom pain in his right arm.
On the field, the King of Taking Leave withdrew his right hand expressionlessly and lay down on the spot. However, his right hand, which was originally supporting his body, became his left hand, and veins appeared on the muscles of his right arm. It can be seen that this was not so comfortable for the King of Taking Leave.
As the King of Leave lay down, a head popped out from the big conch in front of him. It was the stupid hippopotamus that had just hidden in the conch in time. Gongsun Yan looked at it carefully for a long time, but finally said with regret that he couldn't see anything.
There was no way. Although Gongsun Yan believed that even if the conch of the stupid hippopotamus could withstand the arm hammer of the King of Leave, the subsequent shock would not be so pleasant. There would always be a headache or a fever. But the stupid hippopotamus always looked so stupid. He was almost brainwashed by his lifeless eyes and could not see what was different about the other party.
"Good opportunity, Silly Hippo, use your mental power!" After seeing that the King of Leave had fallen into a lazy state, Ah Shui was overjoyed and ordered Silly Hippo to continue the attack.
"stay?"
However, Hippopotamus did not disappoint Gongsun Yan. He turned his head to look at his trainer with a confused look on his face, as if he did not understand what the other person was saying at all. Not only did he not mobilize his own mental power, but he stretched out his right hand and grabbed the conch on his stomach.
"wnm!" After seeing the stupid Hippo's stupid move, Ah Shui felt bad all over. He suddenly began to be glad that he didn't make it to the finals. If he had used the stupid Hippo as his trump card in the finals, his opponents would probably have laughed out loud.
"Puchi~, cough cough, sorry, I didn't mean it. I have received professional training and normally I don't laugh." Gongsun Yan said, covering his mouth.
Well, Ah Shui's worries were obviously not groundless. Gongsun Yan couldn't help laughing out loud just now. The main reason was that he really didn't expect to meet such an "interesting" opponent in the final tournament. For a moment, he even forgot to control his expression.
"Hahaha!" The audience on the side couldn't help it. As Gongsun Yan's laughter appeared, a burst of laughter filled the top of the main venue, and the entire main venue turned into a sea of joy.
"Stupid hippo, don't be stupid, use your mental strength." Ah Shui was about to collapse and shouted in despair.
It seemed that A Shui's sincerity moved the heavens, or A Shui was so miserable that even God couldn't bear to see it anymore. Of course, it was more likely that the stupid hippopotamus finally reacted to A Shui's previous order and finally mobilized his superpowers, and a blue light appeared on the body of the King of Leave.
However, Ah Shui's joy was obviously temporary. Being delayed by the stupid hippo, the King of Leave also relaxed from his lazy state. He stretched his body casually and broke free from the super power that enveloped his body.
"King of Leave, use the poison." Gongsun Yan barely suppressed his laughter and gave the order to the King of Leave.
The King of Asking for Leave stretched out his hands and firmly grasped the conch where the stupid hippo was hiding. A ferocious smile appeared on his face, which scared the stupid hippo so much that he "whoosh" went back into the shell.
However, Gongsun Yan didn't care about the stupid hippo's behavior of shrinking his head. Although the stupid hippo could get into the shell, his conch shell had no cover. If the King of Leave wanted to put poison, he could put it in anyway.
"Ugh~"
Well, the situation on the field is a bit unsightly now. You can see it from the audience and Ah Shui's constipated look. Don't get the wrong idea, that sound was not Gongsun Yan vomiting, but the King of Leave.
Or it could be said that it was not that Absentee vomited. As we all know, Absentee is a Normal-type Pokémon. Since it is a Normal-type Pokémon, there would naturally be no poison sacs or the like in its body. However, Absentee was able to learn extremely poisonous moves, and there is naturally a reason for this.
I won't talk about the specific training methods, since no one will need them anyway (the author hasn't compiled them yet), but the final form of expression is no secret. I believe everyone knows that drunk people can't help vomiting, and they usually hold a trash can or a washbasin. Some people who can't get a seat will even hold the toilet to vomit.
The situation on the field now was no different from a drunk person holding onto a toilet to relieve himself. The King of Leave held onto the shell of the dumb hippopotamus and kept spitting purple venom into the hole on the top, dubbing as he spit, which made Gongsun Yan frown.
"Ahem, although the situation on the field is not very elegant, Gongsun Yan's move is obviously the most appropriate choice. Facing a hard shell, using poison is indeed a good choice. Moreover, it is very difficult for the King of Leave to learn a highly poisonous move. It can be seen that Gongsun Yan's training methods are very outstanding."
The atmosphere at the scene fell into an awkward situation, and the commentator naturally had to step out to ease the atmosphere. However, the commentator could not think of how to ignore the eye-catching scene in front of him, so he could only forcibly mention how high Gongsun Yan's training level was.
"..." Gongsun Yan recalled the process of King Asking for Leave learning how to use the poison, took out the poisonous move machine from his backpack, pressed it on King Asking for Leave's head, and he learned it in a snap, so fast!
However, Gongsun Yan's evil method obviously had no way to spread, so he decisively chose to shut up and turned his attention back to the King of Asking for Leave. Then he was delighted to find that the King of Asking for Leave's poison spraying had finally stopped.
After finishing the use of the poison, the King of Leave did not continue to lie down. Instead, he stood on the ground with a smile, looking at the silly hippopotamus who stuck his head out with purple bubbles all over his body. He inexplicably felt a sense of gloating.
"Stupid Hippo, healing wave, use the healing wave quickly!" Ah Shui anxiously asked the stupid hippo to heal himself. However, the stupid hippo, who was tortured by the poison, could not hear Ah Shui's instructions at all and just kept groaning in pain.
"Ahem, King of Leave, don't play so hard. Just yawn again, or you'll have to send the stupid hippo to his death."
As the saying goes, it is better to loosen than to block. Gongsun Yan saw at a glance that King Asking for Leave had not had enough fun. If he forced him to stop, the effect might not be good, so Gongsun Yan retreated to advance and restricted King Asking for Leave in the name of using a final move.
Ah Shui was deeply touched by Gongsun Yan's kindness, and there was something he had to say.
"Gongsun Yan, damn it!"
Chapter 414: Teaching and Resolving Doubts
"Hehe, you fought well." After the fight, Gongsun Yan shook hands with A Shui as usual. He had gone too far in the previous fight, and Gongsun Yan was ready to apologize to the other party, but his words turned into ridicule as soon as he opened his mouth.
"Haha!" Sure enough, although Ah Shui didn't know the deep meaning of this sentence, after he looked at the extremely dazzling score of 6 to 0 on the big screen, he instantly understood that Gongsun Yan's words were mocking him. He barely controlled his desire to curse, shook hands casually, and turned away, as if he didn't want to see Gongsun Yan again.
Looking at A Shui's leaving back, Gongsun Yan touched his hair embarrassedly, but that's how Pokémon battles are, the winner takes it all. Although he felt sorry for the other party, he had his reasons for winning.
(A Shui: What I care about is whether I lose or not? What I care about is why you use such dirty tricks!!!)
After saying goodbye to A Shui, Gongsun Yan stood on the field to welcome the cheers of the audience. This was the honor that the winner deserved. Gongsun Yan kept bowing to the audience. The whole venue was noisy for several minutes before it calmed down, because the next battle was about to begin. Gongsun Yan turned around and returned to the passage on his side.
"Congratulations on your victory!" Zhe, who was standing in the contestant channel, waved to Gongsun Yan who had just entered.
"You have to try your best too. I'm looking forward to fighting with you!" Gongsun Yan stretched out his hand and high-fived Zhe.
"Of course, Meowth and I will go together." Zheya patted the Poké Ball on his waist, turned around and walked towards the competition venue.
After saying goodbye to Zheye, Gongsun Yan returned to the audience seats and watched the next game with everyone else.
As expected, outstanding people will attract each other. All the members of Gongsun Yan's small group easily defeated their opponents and advanced to the top 16. However, Gongsun Yan did not focus on the game. He was busy "picking up girls" and had no energy to pay attention to these rough men.
"This Pokémon egg has a very long story. An old friend of mine entrusted it to me, and I will definitely take good care of it." Gongsun Yan held the Pokémon egg that he took from Liliae, and stroked the Pokémon egg with eyes full of memories.
"Hmm? Old friend? Last night I specially checked the album of Pokémon eggs. Although the pattern of this Pokémon egg is very similar to the Pokémon of Smelly, there are huge differences. This Pokémon egg is definitely not a modern Pokémon egg." Liliae sat next to Gongsun Yan and asked with curiosity.
Although every Pokémon egg in the Pokémon world is unique, the patterns on the eggs are often traceable, and the eggs of the same Pokémon are often similar.
Liliae had originally intended to check what kind of Pokémon this Pokémon egg belonged to, but she couldn't find the corresponding one after searching for several times, so she forgot her fear of Gongsun Yan and took the initiative to approach Gongsun Yan to ask.
"Of course you can't find it, because this Pokémon became extinct thousands of years ago, and now only one other form exists in this world." Gongsun Yan took out his Pokémon encyclopedia, opened the album inside, and found the photo of the Xicui region's Slimy Melodrama among countless funny pictures of Xiaozhi.
"Look, that's this Slimy Dragon. It lived in the Washiu region thousands of years ago, which is now the Sinnoh region. It is a dual-type Pokémon of Steel and Dragon."
"Huh? There is actually such a thing." Liliae took the Pokémon encyclopedia from Gongsun Yan's hand and looked at the notes Gongsun Yan made for the photo with interest.
Gongsun Yan then recounted in detail how he and Xue summoned Rayquaza together. Lillie, who was standing by, was dazzled by what she heard. Although Lillie didn't dare to come into contact with Pokémon, her knowledge of Pokémon was definitely not inferior to any of her peers. She was undoubtedly a good child who loved learning.
In Gongsun Yan's few words, the Xicui area thousands of years ago slowly appeared before her eyes. The pleasure of acquiring new knowledge made her unable to stop.
"So, Sister Xue has returned to her own era?" Liliae widened her eyes and said in disbelief when she heard the news that Xue had left.
"Well, in a sense, you should call her ancestor, but it's almost the same. Of course, she has returned to her own era, and she still has the mission of saving the Xicui area. A hero can't stand still." Gongsun Yan seemed to see the smart and unrestrained girl again, but that was a thing of the past.
"But her efforts were not in vain. Look how beautiful the world is now. Although it has some shortcomings, it is the best gift that Xue left to us, the later generations." Gongsun Yan stood up and cheered loudly for Zheye on the field, looking like a die-hard fan.
Although Liliae on the side didn't quite understand what Gongsun Yan said, she thought it seemed like a good thing, so she followed Gongsun Yan's example and stood up to cheer for Zhe.
"Lillie, during the Caiyou Conference, I'll leave this Pokémon egg in your care." When the two of them were tired and sat back in their seats, Gongsun Yan suddenly spoke.
"Huh? Why?" Liliae was very confused.
"You can't touch Pokémon now, and you can only touch this one Pokémon egg. I can see your love for Pokémon, but this Pokémon egg was entrusted to you by an old friend, and I can't give it to you, so I think, at least during this period of time, you can have close contact with it." Gongsun Yan turned his head and said nonchalantly.
"This, isn't a good idea." Although Lillie was very tempted by the suggestion, she was worried that she wouldn't be able to take good care of the Pokémon egg.
"There's nothing wrong with it. I believe you can do it. Come on, let me tell you how to take care of Pokémon eggs. There are some things to pay attention to. Although I'm just guessing, it looks like the effect is pretty good." Gongsun Yan interrupted Liliae's refusal in a very domineering manner, took Liliae's hand and began to teach and answer her questions.
"That bastard boy actually did that to my Liliae!" Lusamine felt angry when she saw the intimacy between Gongsun Yan and Liliae. If Xingzi hadn't stopped her, she would have rushed up and hugged Liliae in her arms.
Chapter 415: Second Round Finals Tournament
Under Lusamine's cannibalistic gaze, the relationship between Gongsun Yan and Lillie made great progress through the medium of Pokémon eggs. After watching all the games and when the audience left, Gongsun Yan still looked at Lillie with a very doting look and even reached out to pat Lillie's little head.
At this time, Gongsun Yan hadn't thought so much. He was still a young man in his twenties at heart and he didn't think that he would be attracted to a nine-year-old girl. In fact, if someone had such an idea, he would even recommend the other person to turn right out of the door, as there was the Louis XVI Happy Stage, which should be more suitable for those guys.
After saying goodbye to Liliae and the other two, Gongsun Yan turned around and reunited with Xiaozhi and the others, and together they walked in the direction of the restaurant recommended by Zheya. Halfway through the way, Gongsun Yan saw a little boy selling newspapers. This would not have been a big deal, but he was too interested in what the other boy was shouting.
"Breaking news, breaking news, the top 16 have been announced. According to our newspaper's statistics, these are the eight contestants who are most likely to win the Caiyou Conference championship. Don't miss it if you pass by!"
Hearing the shout, Gongsun Yan instantly became interested. As expected, in every world there are always a few people who can see the business opportunities hidden behind things. Not only the contestants, but anyone who has watched the competition would be curious about this.
However, these things are not expensive. Gongsun Yan plans to buy one to take a look. It would be great if he could collect some intelligence about the opponent. If that doesn't work, it would be great to have fun. By the way, he can also see what others think of him. Why not do it?
Waving his hand to call the little boy over, Gongsun Yan bought a newspaper and started reading while walking. Xiaozhi and others nearby also came over to take a look with great interest. They were also very curious about what others thought of them.
"Eighth place, Xiaoguang, a multi-attribute Pokémon trainer from Green Shade Town. He has no specialized attributes. It is said that he only has six Pokémon, and his team lacks flexibility. The Pokémon he knows so far are Gardevoir, Hyperactive, and Charizard. His Pokémon are strong, but his observation ability is slightly weak, and his command ability is strong. Since he has no experience traveling abroad, the possibility of him advancing to the quarterfinals is not high."
"Hey, Xiaoguang, I didn't expect you to be ranked eighth. It seems that your efforts have been recognized by everyone!"
Gongsun Yan really didn't expect that Xiaoguang's strength was ranked eighth. Although it doesn't sound so good, Xiaoguang has only been traveling for less than half a month, and most of the time he was recuperating, so the Pokémon in his hands are indeed strong, but compared with everyone present, they are indeed a little weaker.
"Hehe, it's all because of other people's flattery." Xiaoguang's face turned red when Gongsun Yan teased him.
"Um, Xiaoguang, I think you could be more like a boy when you are shy or angry. It feels a bit weird if you keep acting like this." Gongsun Yan glanced at Xiaoguang and the corners of his eyes began to twitch.
"Oh, okay." Xiaoguang agreed weakly.
"..." Gongsun Yan took a deep breath, looked at the newspaper in his hand, and decided not to read any further, otherwise he felt that something might go wrong.
"Seventh place, Masamune, a multi-attribute Pokémon trainer from Akiba Town. His currently known Pokémon are Metallo, Scorpio, and Growlithe. He has strong observation skills, his Pokémon strength is above average, and his Pokémon command ability is average, but he is very good at defeating the strong with the weak, so this newspaper ranks him seventh."
Gongsun Yan and others glanced at Zhengzong and found that he was not angry at all by what was said in the newspaper. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and quickly turned to the next page. After all, what was said in the newspaper was indeed a bit unpleasant.
No one recognized the last few names, but Gongsun Yan looked familiar, as if he had challenged Chenghua Gym. However, he didn't have much connection with him. After all, not everyone could talk to the referee calmly after being beaten up.
As for the top three places in this newspaper, they were occupied by Xiaozhi, Gongsun Yan and Zheya respectively. Although Gongsun Yan and Xiaozhi showed very strong strength, they were still a little inferior to Zheya who had won other league competitions. Therefore, Zheya was placed in the first place.
It is not surprising that Ash's ranking is behind Gongsun Yan. Although Milotic has appeared, Ash's real trump card has not yet appeared, and his mega evolution has not been shown, otherwise he would have been ranked second. The only thing that can stop him from taking first place is the appearance of Groudon.
In fact, it can't be called little Groudon now. After Gongsun Yan's careful training, and the fact that young Pokémon grow relatively quickly, Groudon's height is already nearly three meters. Although it's not as tall as the original Groudon which was as tall as a building, it's almost reaching the height in the previous life's illustrated book.
"It seems that we are all very optimistic. We are likely to meet in the next match. I hope we can have a wonderful game then." Gongsun Yan put the newspaper away with a smile, turned around and said to everyone.
"Of course. Let's go eat. The pizza at that restaurant is amazing. I managed to get a reservation with great difficulty." Zhe also urged.
"Oh, there's really nothing we can do. Zheye, you really love to eat~" Gongsun Yan looked at Zheye helplessly, but this group of people are essentially foodies, so they immediately went to the restaurant to eat.
A shop that is valued by Tetsuya must have its own unique features. The delicious pizza made everyone linger. Satoshi and Masamune even started to compete to see who ate the most pizza. After seeing how deliciously they ate, the people around them also became hungry and started to overeat.
After everyone finally put down their knives and forks, there were at least three plates placed next to each person. You have to know that these pizzas are at least nine inches in size. Two plates would have been the limit for most people, but in this situation, people's appetites were naturally aroused, and they could eat a few bites even if they were full.
After eating, Xiaosheng, as the recognized first intelligence officer, immediately told everyone that the list of opponents for the second round of the final tournament had been announced. The group swarmed towards the Pokémon Center. It was not that they did not want to run, but they were simply too full.
As soon as they walked into the Pokémon Center, they saw the battle order listed on the big screen in the hall. It clearly read:
[Gongsun Yan vs Xiao Guang]
【Xiaozhi vs Masamune】
Chapter 416: Masamune vs. Satoshi
"Where are you two going!" Gongsun Yan felt something was wrong after seeing the battle list, and turned around and grabbed Xiaoguang and Zhengzong who were about to leave.
"What's wrong? Have you lost confidence in the fight after seeing that our opponents are the two of us? Would it be unfair to the Pokémon accompanying you if you run away from the battlefield? Tell me!" Gongsun Yan changed his previous funny look and scolded the two of them with a dark face.
"Then what else can we do? You actually want me and you, Brother Yan, to fight? We can't do it." Xiaoguang said with his head down. Masamune beside him also lowered his head and said nothing.
"Then, since you have participated in this Caiyou Conference, you should be prepared. Isn't your dream to become the strongest Pokémon master? Then we are all obstacles in front of you. If you don't defeat us, what will you do? Give up your dreams?" Gongsun Yan said angrily.
It's not that he can't understand their feelings. It's their first time traveling, and although they have achieved such outstanding results, their mentality is still not as good as those who have been through many battles like Tetsuya and Satoshi.
Let alone Gongsun Yan, he is not a normal person. Having been struggling in the society for such a long time, he is naturally able to balance his mentality. Not to mention when he is working, even when he took the postgraduate entrance examination, he defeated one of his roommates to win. At that time, he was mentally prepared enough.
"When I first participated in the Quartz Conference, I forged a friendship with a trainer named Hiro, and we fought together. But in the second round of the final tournament, we faced off against each other." Xiaozhi did not just stand there and watch, but took the initiative to step forward and tell what happened when he participated in the Quartz Conference.
On the other side, Tetsuya also stood up. He had been traveling for such a long time and had defeated his friends personally. The experience of these veterans was undoubtedly the best guidance for Masamune and Xiaoguang.
It’s not that Gongsun Yan’s mouth cannon skills are not good, it’s mainly because his current identity is no different from Masamune and Xiaoguang and the others. They are all newcomers. After all, mouth cannons without story support are ultimately rootless. He is also happy to hand over the stage to Xiaozhi and the others. After all, these two people’s mouth cannon skills are no worse than his.
After Satoshi and Tetsuya's earnest persuasion, Masamune and Hikaru still couldn't break free from the "fratricide", but at least they wouldn't resist tomorrow's battle, although it's unknown how much strength they can display.
With Masamune and Xiaoguang tossing and turning, and Gongsun Yan and Xiaozhi worried, the night passed quickly, and the second round of the final tournament officially began the next day.
Zhe, who was the first to appear, defeated his opponent easily. He only paid the price of less than three Pokémon losing their combat ability. Moreover, the injuries of those three Pokémon that lost their combat ability were not serious. They would definitely recover the next day and would not affect the battle the next day.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the second game began, and Masamune and Satoshi walked onto the competition field.
"The next players to play are Satoshi from Pallet Town in Kanto and Masamune from Akihabara Town in Hoenn. Satoshi has been a top eight player in the Quartz Tournament, an honorary trainer in the Orange League, and a top eight player in the Chengdu Region Silver Tournament. His strength is very strong."
"And Masamune is a rookie trainer who just started his journey this year. Although the journey was short, his strength should not be underestimated. It can be said that the battle between the two will definitely be a fierce battle. Everyone, do you feel the anticipation for the battle between the two players? Let us invite the two players to come on stage!"
The commentator on the sidelines said passionately that the previous match really made him have no desire to commentate. It could be said that Zheya was completely toying with his opponent. The entire battlefield was under Zheya's control. Any spectator could see this, and it made no difference whether he was the commentator or not.
Suddenly, the entire audience erupted in enthusiastic cheers. Amid the cheers, Xiaozhi and Masamune walked out from both sides of the aisle, waving to the audience as they walked. However, Masamune's movements were obviously stiffer, which showed that he had not yet recovered.
"You really can't make up your mind after an entire night?" Gongsun Yan said helplessly as he sat in the preparation room, watching Masamune's performance on TV.
His match with Xiaoguang was in the next round, so the two of them made pre-match preparations in the preparation room. Fortunately, there was a TV in the preparation room where they could watch the live broadcast, so they would not miss this exciting match.
As Xiaozhi and Masamune stood in a fixed position, the commentator's voice sounded again.
"Next, the big screen will draw the venue. Which venue will the two contestants compete on? Please keep your eyes open."
As soon as the commentator finished speaking, something on the big screen began to flash rapidly. Soon, the screen stopped and a picture of a venue filled the entire screen.
"Ice field, the first half will be held on the ice field, please change the venue." The commentator shouted.
Suddenly, the rock venue left over from the previous venue fell under the venue (there were several spare rock venues, and the one destroyed by Gongsun Yan had already been thrown into the garbage dump, and it must have become an amusement park for Broken Bags.), and went to one side. Then, the ice venue emerged from the ground and rose to the position of the original rock venue.
