Chapter 471: The painting style was once very strange
"Commander Split, split!"
Facing the energy ball shooting towards him, Commander Cleave calmly wiped the blade on his right arm and slashed at the energy ball. The sharp blade split the energy ball into two, and the energy ball dissipated without even exploding.
"What a sharp knife." Gongsun Yan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows upon seeing this. It was actually not easy to cut the energy ball directly.
"Haha, now you have seen it, my Commander-Slash's pair of arm blades can cut off a waterfall!" Wang Xiaoming said with great pride.
"Cutting off the waterfall? Have I come to the set of Saint Seiya?" After hearing this, Gongsun Yan couldn't help but complain. This training method of cutting off the waterfall is quite common in some martial arts worlds, but in the Pokémon world, the style always feels a bit wrong.
However, even though Gongsun Yan felt that there was something wrong with the style of painting, the abilities acquired through training were real. After Xiaozhi learned about the terrifying cutting ability of the Slash Commander, he suddenly felt very troubled. He could not defeat him in close combat, and would be blocked from a long-range perspective. He was indeed a very tricky opponent.
"In that case, then don't let him add on the damage from the combo. Lizard King, use the cross shears!" Xiaozhi thought for a moment and decisively tried a new way of dealing with the situation.
The Lizard King kicked the ground with his legs and flew out at an extremely fast speed. He crossed his arms in front of him and rushed towards Commander Slash. In terms of speed, he was still much stronger than Commander Slash, and appeared in front of Commander Slash in an instant.
The light green insect energy intertwined on the grass leaves on both sides of the Lizard King's arms. It was very similar to the sharp feeling of the Blade Leaf Slash that seemed to be able to cut through everything, but the nature was very different.
The Lizard King flashed in front of Commander Cleaver, lowered his body slightly, and slashed Commander Cleaver's abdomen with the cross scissors that had been accumulating power for a long time. The powerful impact immediately knocked Commander Cleaver back.
Xiaozhi was not too happy to see that the move worked, because the Slash Commander who was flying backwards stabilized his body very easily, and when he landed on the ground, his body didn't even shake.
The situation on the Lizard King's side was not so optimistic. After the cross scissors hit him, the reason why the Lizard King did not press on with the victory was entirely because his hands could not stop shaking, and they have not been able to stop until now.
After hitting Commander Slash's abdomen, the Lizard King felt as if he had hit a piece of extremely hard steel head-on, and his attack was completely unable to penetrate the opponent's armor.
If it were just this, it wouldn't be a big problem. The Lizard King firmly believed that his attack could leave a scar even on hundred-forged steel. However, when the Lizard King was preparing to make a second effort, he felt that he was facing a mountain and his strength was unable to shake the opponent.
The reason why Commander Slash flew backwards was purely voluntary. Commander Slash only did this to relieve the force exerted on him by the Lizard King. Otherwise, no matter how outstanding his defense was, he would still suffer from the recoil damage.
"It's our turn now, Chop the Commander, Hell Stab!" At this time, Wang Xiaoming shouted from behind.
Upon hearing this, Commander Slash immediately raised his right hand and made a thrusting gesture. A stream of dark evil energy wrapped around his right hand, which looked like the entanglement of armed color domineering, or that kind of domineering with special effects.
"Whoosh!"
With the sound of the air being pierced, Commander Slash rushed straight to the front of the Lizard King and stabbed the Lizard King in the chest with a Hell Stab. The Lizard King only had time to block his chest with his still trembling hands before he was knocked away.
"just......"
The power of this attack was actually not that great. Although the Lizard King had no resistance to evil-type moves, he did make an evasive move in the end, so the damage was reduced a lot. But this attack still made the Lizard King's face turn blue, and his slender figure was knocked back repeatedly by this powerful Hell Stab.
After finally stopping, he still felt a sharp pain in his chest. It seemed that the Lizard King's evasive action was not effective enough in the emergency, and most of the damage still hit him.
"It seems that my Slash Commander is stronger than your Lizard King. You don't seem to have gone through the devilish training that we went through. This is not good. When you are practicing, you are always about the same. If you are about the same, you will be very different in the end during the competition."
Wang Xiaoming was quite proud to see this and even had the leisure to lecture Xiaozhi on some moral principles, except that the line was a bit out of place.
"Cymbals!"
Commander Cleaver also stroked the blade on his right arm in a very ostentatious manner. The posture made people feel that he deserved a beating.
"My goodness, where did this Erlang Xiansheng Zhenjun come from? So Xiaozhi's real name is Chenxiang, and Pikachu's real name is Baolian Lantern?" Gongsun Yan couldn't help but complain again, making Lillie beside him look sideways, as if she wanted to know what Gongsun Yan was talking about.
"Ahem, nothing. It seems like Xiaozhi's battle is a bit uncertain." Gongsun Yan subconsciously looked in the direction of Liliae, and when he saw her puzzled look, he quickly changed the subject.
"Xiaozhi is the type of traveler who travels to various places to capture and see new Pokémon. His advantage is that he has a wider range of knowledge and is very adaptable, but he has a hard time facing a hardworking opponent like Wang Xiaoming."
"These hardworking trainers may only have a small number of Pokémon. Many of them may only capture six Pokémon in their lifetime. However, the strength of these six Pokémon is very strong without exception, but the flaw is also obvious, that is, they are easily targeted."
"Although this Slash Commander looks like it has no solution, it actually has obvious flaws. Without saying too much, if Xiaozhi had Charizard in his hand, he could have defeated the opponent without any damage. Even the strongest steel will reveal various flaws when facing the burning of fire."
Gongsun Yan pretended to be a charlatan in front of Liliae. Although his acting looked very poor, Liliae only knew about raising Pokémon and knew nothing about fighting, so Gongsun Yan's pretending was perfect.
"So, Xiaozhi, how are you going to deal with it?" Gongsun Yan looked at Xiaozhi on the field, with a strange light flashing in his eyes.
Chapter 472: The Last Piece of the Puzzle to Win
"Huh~, it looks like I'm in a desperate situation now."
Xiaozhi let out a long breath and looked at the opponent in front of him. His right hand was stroking the Poké Ball that was placed in the most convenient position on his belt. Inside was his most powerful Pokémon so far. As long as he was willing to summon it, any opponent who stood in his way would be defeated easily.
"Really? Should I do this?" Xiaozhi couldn't help but ponder in his heart. Since Suicune passed the test of the Caiyou Conference, it was his strength. Shouldn't it be normal to change Pokémon when he was at a disadvantage? But why did I feel so unwilling?
At this moment, there seemed to be a bewitching voice in Xiaozhi's heart constantly advising him to let Suicune play as soon as possible, so that even if Gongsun Yan became his opponent, he would only end in failure.
This voice filled Xiaozhi's heart. Xiaozhi was almost persuaded by it. His right hand had unconsciously taken off Suicune's Poké Ball. All he had to do next was to take back Lizardking and then release Suicune. Victory would naturally come to him.
"No..." Just when Xiaozhi was about to take action, a very weak but firm voice sounded from deep in his heart, stopping Xiaozhi's actions.
After Xiaozhi stopped, the bewitching voice suddenly became angry and frustrated. While scolding the weak voice, it continued to bewitch Xiaozhi, trying to make him release Suicune.
And that faint voice seemed to not hear the curses resounding in Xiaozhi's heart, or it was so faint that it could not hear the voice at all. It could only repeat "No" over and over, but no matter how Xiaozhi asked, it could not say why it was not possible.
"If you feel lost, think back to why you want to become a Pokémon trainer. That is your origin."
At this moment, a new voice appeared in Xiaozhi's heart. This was what Gongsun Yan had said to Xiaozhi and Xiaoyao when he was showing off before. Although the two felt that it made sense, they never took it to heart. But now Xiaozhi recalled this sentence.
The strange thing is that although Xiaozhi heard this sentence from Gongsun Yan, when Xiaozhi recalled this sentence, what appeared in his mind was a handsome man with a big "S" on his right arm. The moment Xiaozhi saw this man for the first time, he felt that he was a good cook.
"My origin..." Xiaozhi fell into deep thought.
As we all know, a hero's transformation time is extremely fast, or it can be completed in an instant, but on TV it can be dragged out for several minutes. It's like the author has been busy with almost half a chapter, but only one second has passed outside. To outsiders, it seems that Xiaozhi was just stunned for a moment.
"So, Xiaozhi, how will you deal with this?" Gongsun Yan asked this question in his heart.
"Will you face the challenge head-on or use deus ex machina? Let me see how magnanimous you are, Xiaozhi! Let me see if you are the one who can fight! Can you defeat me?" Gongsun Yan's eyes seemed to have two balls of blazing war flames as he stared at Xiaozhi.
After seeing Xiaozhi take Suicune's Poké Ball, Gongsun Yan became visibly disappointed, but he still forced himself to be strong and kept comforting himself in his heart.
"Xiaozhi is still an eleven-year-old boy after all, it's normal for him to do this, just relax, relax."
Just like that, Gongsun Yan, who had calmed down, prepared to quietly appreciate Suicune's first appearance. The first time that such a powerful force appeared in the league competition, the scene must have been very exciting.
Then, Gongsun Yan discovered that Xiaozhi seemed to have suddenly lost connection for a while. Although he was reconnected quickly, it rekindled a glimmer of hope in Gongsun Yan's heart.
"Lizard King." Xiaozhi suddenly raised his head and called the Lizard King without any context. Then he said nothing and just kept staring at the Lizard King.
"Cha~" The strange thing is that the Lizard King seemed to really understand what Xiaozhi wanted to say. He responded to Xiaozhi in a still very hoarse voice, and gave Xiaozhi a thumbs up with a smile on his face.
"......Then let's win together! Lizard King, mega evolution!" After seeing the Lizard King's smile, Xiaozhi couldn't help but smile. He put Suicune's Poké Ball back to his waist with confidence and raised his hand to press on the Key Stone in his left hand.
"Hahaha! I was right about you, Xiaozhi. Go ahead and win! Let the other side see how powerful you are. This is the style of a fighter!"
After seeing Xiaozhi's choice, Gongsun Yan stood up from his seat and shouted loudly, attracting the attention of all the audience. The others sitting around him covered their faces and pretended not to know Gongsun Yan.
"It seems that you have made up your mind." Wang Xiaoming looked at the Lizard King covered in white light in front of him and asked Xiaozhi with interest.
"Yes, after going through so much, I seemed to have lost my direction, but now I have found my origin. Let everyone see how powerful we are!" Xiaozhi said with a smile on his face.
“Although I don’t quite understand what you are talking about, it should be in the right direction. Anyway, Commander Pizhan and I will not lose.” Wang Xiaoming said with a fighting spirit.
"Lizard King, Blade Leaf Slash!"
"Cut the commander, cut continuously!"
At this moment, just like at that moment, Xiaozhi and Wang Xiaoming decisively chose the moves they had used before, giving the audience a re-enactment of the scene, but this time, the Lizard King was not suppressed, but fought back and forth with the Slash Commander. Even if the Slash Commander's combo reached its highest power, it could not suppress the mega evolved Lizard King.
"Still can't suppress the opponent? Lizard King, use energy ball!"
"It's no use, chop the commander, chop it open!"
"Lizard King, eat the energy ball!"
"what?!"
This new use of Energy Ball was originally invented by Ash and Squirtle in the Sinnoh region. Under the guidance of Gongsun Yan, Lizard King has now mastered this move perfectly. The only problem is that Lizard King does not have a strong physique like Squirtle, so it can only use it when it gains dragon attributes after mega evolution.
But at this moment, this energy ball is the last piece of the puzzle to victory.
Chapter 473: Passer-by in the World
"Crack!"
The sound of clashing swords was heard, and the figures of Lizard King and Slash Commander crossed each other. Both sides had blades of different colors on their arms. The previous sound was caused by the collision between the two. After the brief confrontation, the two Pokémon stood up with their backs to each other, quite like the Ronin swordsmen of the Showa era.
"Cha~" Suddenly, the blades on the Lizard King's arms suddenly dissipated, and a line of blood suddenly appeared on the Lizard King's waist, causing the Lizard King to half-kneel down, covering the wound with a very painful expression.
"Lin~!" Commander Pi Zhan turned his head and looked at the Lizard King. His face was blocked by the hard steel, making it impossible to tell what his expression was. One could only see that his eyes were still sharp, as if they were going to pierce through the Lizard King in front of him.
“Crack! Crack!”
Suddenly, Commander Pizhan's body stiffened and a crisp sound came from his body. Commander Pizhan lowered his head in disbelief and observed his body that had been tempered for a long time under the waterfall. He found that imperceptible cracks appeared on his body.
The sound seemed to be some kind of opportunity. Next, cracks appeared on Commander Pizhan's body one after another. Each crack seemed to have cracked in Commander Pizhan's heart, making it difficult for Commander Pizhan to accept it.
"boom!"
Suddenly, a huge cut appeared on Commander Cleave's body, spreading from his right shoulder to his left waist. After the cut appeared, Commander Cleave fell to the ground with surprise on his face. Until the last second before he fell into coma, he didn't know why he lost.
"Slash Commander lost his ability to fight, and Lizard King won. Since Wang Xiaoming already had six Pokémon that lost their ability to fight, the winner of the second semi-final match is Xiaozhi from Pallet Town!"
As the referee announced the results of the match, everyone present began to shout Xiaozhi's name. Although from the final result, Xiaozhi was ahead of Wang Xiaoming by one more Pokémon, the final game was so exciting. Xiaozhi and Lizardking, who fought hard, deserved their applause.
"Awesome, Xiaozhi, well done!" Gongsun Yan continued to have a seizure in the audience, attracting more and more attention. Liliae, who was sitting next to Gongsun Yan, felt a little uneasy, and wondered in her mind whether it would be more appropriate to knock Gongsun Yan unconscious.
Just when Liliae was thinking about where to start, Gongsun Yan suddenly felt a chill on his back. He was so scared that he quickly sat down, not daring to continue having an attack. As a result, the chill not only did not weaken, but became stronger and stronger.
"Xiaoyao, please put away your Meowth, she used Blizzard on my back..."
"Hey, Xiangwei Miao, when did you run out? Xiaoyan, I'm sorry."
Xiaoyao put Meowth back into the Poké Ball while apologizing to Gongsun Yan. She seemed very sincere, but she made a "yeah" gesture to others behind her back, which showed that there was a hidden story behind all this.
..........................................................................................
"It was an exciting game. It seems that my practice with Cleaver is not enough." After Wang Xiaoming took back Cleaver into the Poké Ball, he was depressed for only a few seconds before he cheered up again, patted his cheeks hard, and walked forward to shake hands with Xiaozhi.
"No, we just took advantage of the mega evolution. If we really talk about strength, you are still stronger." Xiaozhi said sincerely.
"No, no, no. Mega evolution is also part of strength. It's all your strength. There's no inconvenience or inconvenience about it." Wang Xiaoming refuted Xiaozhi's words seriously.
"Oh, really, I actually lost in front of Brother Shi, it's such a headache. You just feel the audience's cheers, I'll think about how to get away with it, oh, it's such a headache!" Wang Xiaoming held his head in great despair and walked out of the passage in his direction, giving people a feeling of "the wind is whistling and the Yishui River is cold, and the hero will never come back once he leaves."
After Wang Xiaoming walked into the player channel in a very handsome manner, he completely collapsed after the audience could no longer see him. He did not have the domineering attitude at all as he had when he was fighting hard against Xiaozhi in the arena. Instead, he looked like a cowardly child.
"I actually lost, and I lost in front of Brother Shi. Am I really not suitable to be a Pokémon trainer?" Wang Xiaoming curled up in the corner and said helplessly.
"Hey, kid, you played very well in today's fight. It seems that you didn't let me down." A slightly showy voice came from the shadows, attracting all the attention of Wang Xiaoming, who was about to cry but had no tears.
"Are you, Brother Shi?!" After seeing the person coming, Wang Xiaoming stood up from the ground suddenly without even having time to wipe the snot and tears off his face.
"Okay, wipe your face quickly. You don't look like a semi-finalist." A man wearing a black suit with a strange magenta lining walked out from the shadows. Although his expression was full of disgust, he still handed the handkerchief on his chest to Wang Xiaoming.
"Brother Shi! I lost!" Upon seeing this scene, Wang Xiaoming burst into tears again and threw himself towards the person who came.
However, the opponent was not so kind this time. He dodged decisively. Wang Xiaoming flew past the opponent and fell directly to the ground, forming a big character shape.
"Okay, your loss is not unfair. Your opponent is not simple. His last trump card is not something you can use to win. But that is not a monster he cultivated, so he doesn't want to use that trump card, but he doesn't have any taboos about it." Kazushi Kazushi started explaining to himself as if he didn't see Wang Xiaoming lying on the ground.
"Okay, I'm glad to see that you're doing well. My journey isn't over yet. It seems that there's another strange world with the history of knights. I'm going to go there and take a look. I think I can find a pretty good friend there."
After saying this, Kazushi Kazushi walked towards the shadows. A gray-white wall flashed by and Kazushi Kazushi disappeared into the shadows. Wang Xiaoming immediately got up and looked for the other person, but the result was the same as two months ago, there was no trace of him at all.
Chapter 474: 9:1, because there is no 10:1
"Let's raise our glasses together and congratulate Xiaozhi and Xiaoyan for successfully meeting in the finals!"
At a very famous food stall in Caiyou City, Gongsun Yan and his group were gathered at the stall, raising their glasses to congratulate Gongsun Yan and Xiaozhi for successfully qualifying.
It’s not that everyone can’t go to a better place, but those high-end places always feel lacking in flavor. Perhaps everyone here is the inferior person in the eyes of those with blue blood, but everyone doesn’t think there is anything wrong with this.
"Cheers!" Xn
"Hey! Why are you among us too?" After Liliae finished drinking the milk in the cup, she looked at the guy next to her and scolded him rudely.
"Ah, little girl, you seem to have a lot of objections to me. We shouldn't have any big conflicts, right? Could it be related to someone here?" Yan Lingji, who was invited by Gongsun Yan, teased Liliae with interest after seeing her current appearance.
"No, no!" Liliae was obviously not shrewd enough and was killed by Yan Lingji's first attack. Her whole face turned into a red apple.
Lilia, who was outmaneuvered, realized that her means of attack were not enough and she was no match for the woman in front of her, so she decisively shifted her target to Gongsun Yan, wanting to step on Gongsun Yan's foot to teach him a lesson. However, because she was too young, her feet could not touch the ground when she sat on the chair.
"Hmph!" After noticing this, Liliae silently compared the gap between herself and Yan Lingji. Her mood became worse and worse, and she directly turned a face towards Gongsun Yan.
"......What's wrong?" Gongsun Yan asked Xiaogang beside him with a confused look on his face.
"Well, maybe it's just a little secret between girls. Let's just ignore it." Xiao Gang thought about it and decided to let Gongsun Yan figure it out on her own. It would be better for him not to get involved in this mess.
Gongsun Yan thought about it and decided not to care about it. After all, when it comes to girls' thoughts, it is better to understand than to ask, and it is better to guess than to understand, and it is better not to guess than to guess. Knowing too much is often not a good thing.
