Chapter 32 Grade-Level Competition (6)
Chapter 32 Grade-Level Competition (6)
During Xiaogang's battle just now, the students and teachers watching realized that battles could be so cunning and skillful. It was as if he had completely humiliated the trainers and then made them suffer.
The principal and homeroom teacher, watching from the commentary booth, were also dumbfounded.
After regaining his senses, the homeroom teacher said, "Principal, look, the ones following Xiao Tian are either Lao Liu or Keng. If a few more come, I believe they really can tear the academy down."
The principal chimed in, "You're right, but there's nothing I can do. I can't hit him, and I can't scold him. What can I do? Should I tie myself up and send myself over to him?"
The principal and the homeroom teacher could both sense the dejection and helplessness in each other's eyes from their expressions, but if they knew what Xuan Mingtian had done in Suiyi Town, I believe they would both know that the two were incomparable.
Back at the competition venue, it's now Xuan Mingtian's turn to compete. His opponent is Ye Yuxi from Class 4, and his Pokémon is Popplio from the Alola region.
The Alora region consists of four large islands and one artificial island. The four large islands are Melemele, Ula Ula, Poni, and Akala.
The artificial island is the most famous Aether Paradise, which also serves as the base of the Aether Foundation. It is a well-known Pokémon sanctuary in the Alola region and a place for research on Ultra Worms. Although they are still researching Pokémon that emerge from Ultra Worms, it will not hinder the future fame of Aether Paradise.
Some Pokémon in the Alola region have undergone changes in form and characteristics due to their long-term residence there. The most outstanding examples include: Meowth, Rattata, Raichu, Sandshrew, etc. These Pokémon have not only changed their form, but some have even changed their types.
In the anime, Cosmog, also known as Nebula, even appears. Thinking about this, one can't help but admire Ash's super-powerful physique. He can even lift Nebula, which weighs 999.9KG. If you were to scare Ash like that, I wonder if he would strain his back.
Among the Ultra Beasts, the most attention-grabbing is Pheromosa. I believe it is the most attractive to male creatures besides Gardevoir. Standing at 1.8 meters tall, although it has a stick-like physique, it is undeniably impressive.
Xuan Mingtian had already arrived at the arena. Since this battle was against a Water-type Pokémon, there was no need to pretend this time. Of course, he also couldn't forget to scan the opponent's Pokémon.
Ball Ball Sea Lion
Attribute: Water
Ability: Wet Sound
Qualification: Green with a hint of bluish-green
Skills: Slapping, water gun, screaming, seductive voice, round eyes, water jet, acting cute, water arrow (compressing the water gun into an arrow shape)
Review: This is an excellent sea lion, and its trainer is equally outstanding. (I think it would be very happy if given a ball.)
At this moment, the referee announced: "Both sides prepare, the battle begins."
"Ball-Ball Sea Lion, after using its round pupils, emits a seductive sound."
Ball Ball Sea Lion launched the first attack
"Garlic, don't look at it. Although it's a girl, it's time to fight now. Surround yourself with the grassy field."
Xuan Mingtian watched as the opposing Pokémon used Round Pupil as its first move, but it had no effect at all, because such a move was too easy to counter.
Then the Enchanted Voice arrived, and just like before, Garlic was completely unharmed. This is because the Popplio's ability is Wet Voice, which allows sound-based moves to become Water-type.
So the effect is that the garlic is moisturized, and from head to toe, just like watering your own plants.
Xuan said helplessly, "Ye, you should use other skills. Look at my garlic, it's perfectly fine."
"Hmph, I saw it, it's none of your business. Ball Ball Sea Lion, use your charm and then shoot it with water arrows."
"Garlic, ignore its coquettish behavior. Use your flying leaf blade to block its water arrow and see how powerful it is."
"Froggy Frog": Good master.
The affectionate gesture worked, significantly reducing Garlic's aggression. After all, this was a female Ball Ball sea lion's affectionate gesture. If it were a male, I believe Garlic would have beaten it up without Garlic even having to shout. What's the point of a male acting cute?
At this moment, Popplio had already shot out the water-type energy it had compressed in its mouth in the shape of an arrow, while Garlic's Razor Leaf was already waiting for it.
The rapidly flying leaf collided with the water arrow, but the garlic leaf blade was instantly pierced through upon contact with the water arrow, though it also greatly slowed down the water arrow's speed.
*Thud thud thud*, three sounds of impact hitting flesh rang out 0.1 seconds later. Three red dots appeared on Garlic's skin, caused by the impact of being hit by the water arrow. If it weren't for the Leaf Blade's protection, Garlic would definitely have been injured. The red dots disappeared after 5 seconds, a healing effect from the Grass Field.
"Garlic, how potent is it?"
"Froakie": Master, this power is alright, it hurts a little bit.
Ye Yuxi was furious when she saw the human and the elf chatting idly.
"Ballball Sea Lion, launch your water jets and then rush over to swat them."
"Garlic, after taking root, uses vines to weave a shield shape to protect itself."
As the garlic bulb takes root, two vines extend from its body and rapidly spin and weave into a shield shape.
Five seconds later, the water jet sped past, followed by a figure with a glowing tail – the Ball Ball Sea Lion, who had concentrated its energy in its tail.
Dududu, three water arrows stuck into the vine whip shield. Although they weren't pierced, Garlic Head could still see that the arrowheads had penetrated the shield. If this power hit a person, I believe that even if it didn't penetrate the body, it would still pierce the body.
After the water arrow dissipated, Popplio bypassed Shield and appeared above Garlic's head. *Bang!* A solid flick on the head sent Garlic flying.
With a howl, Garlic Head kept rubbing his head with the vines that had already disintegrated from their shield, because his forehead was already bright red.
"Garlic, see? This is the consequence of not being skilled at rooting. Go back and learn more from Xiaota about the simple way to use rooting."
"Gua Miaowa": I understand, Master.
Although the garlic clove took a solid hit, it was still jumping around because of the grassy area.
In contrast, the sea lion, Ball Ball, was not doing so well. Because it had used two water arrows, its energy consumption and stamina were almost depleted.
Moreover, because the Ball Ball Sea Lion is not yet proficient in compressing energy, its mouth is already completely red.
Xuan Mingtian said, "Ye Yuxi, you should surrender. Your Boogie has already used up its limit with two Water Arrows. If you continue like this, it will suffer hidden injuries."
At this moment, Ye Yuxi understood that the Ball Ball Sea Lion was almost at its limit, but she still said unwillingly, "Xuan Mingtian, why don't you give me a break and surrender?"
Hearing this, I shook my head helplessly and said, "Since you put it that way, I'll grant your wish. Let's use the magic leaf to send Garlic back. Just knock it out, don't use too much force."
"Froakie": Okay, Master, I will control the intensity.
After Garlic finished speaking, three glowing leaves appeared on its body. The leaves then flew towards the Sea Lion with a fast and strange trajectory. This was because the Sea Lion had run in an S-shaped path after hearing me say "magic leaf," trying to avoid the attack.
"Ball-Ball Sea Lion turns its head and attacks Magic Leaf with a water gun."
Ye Yuxi's idea was good, but reality was cruel. When the water gun hit one leaf, the other two had already hit the Poppy Sea Lion, with excellent results, killing it instantly. At this time, the Poppy Sea Lion's eyes were already turning green.
"Shh, referee, stop opening your mouth so wide, you can announce the verdict now," Xuan Mingtian said to the stunned referee.
The referee snapped out of his daze and said, "Oh, the winner of this match is Xuan Mingtian from Class 1."
Ye Yuxi, who had also come to her senses, cried and said, "You're a bastard! You promised to let me have it."
He was speechless at the sight. He had indeed said he would let her have her way, but that meant letting her lose the rounds, because Xuan Mingtian didn't want to be beaten up by a real person.
After returning to their seats in the classroom, Xiaogang and Binzai immediately rushed over.
"Xiao Tian, are you giving up on the act, or have you simply given up? How could you use such cruel methods and words to deceive a young little girl?" Xiao Gang said with a half-smile.
“Yeah, Brother Tian, she’s a girl, that’s a bit unfair of you,” Yang Bin chimed in.
Xuan Mingtian rolled his eyes at them and said, "Are you two gloating over her misfortune? I did say I would let her have it, but that only affected her. So what if she's a girl? I'm a boy."
At this moment, Yang Bin said, "Brother Tian, aren't you afraid that if you treat this little girl like this, she'll hate you for the rest of her life? What if she marries you and torments you in the future? Then you're doomed..."
Before Yang Bin could finish speaking, Xuan Mingtian had already flicked him on the forehead.
Xiao Gang looked at Yang Bin with a strange expression and said, "Binzi, where did you learn all this? Let me tell you, your brother Tian already has two fiancées."
Yang Bin stared at himself with wide eyes after hearing this, completely stunned.
Xuan Mingtian said, "Yes, Binzi, I already have two wives at home, and I have also promised my family that if I ever find another wife, I will curse the author to turn into a pig."
Upon hearing this, Yang Bin's eyes widened, and he exclaimed, "Wow, Brother Tian, you're the best! How could you say something so nasty? Do you have a grudge against the author?"
At this moment, Xiao Gang said, "Hahaha, Xiao Tian, there's nothing to be afraid of at all. Even if the author turns into a pig, you'll be fine. You can find a girlfriend instead of a wife."
Upon hearing this, Xuan Mingtian replied without hesitation, "That's right, Xiao Gang, you're too smart, but are you trying to tempt me into committing a crime? You want to watch Mortal Kombat, right? I'll definitely have Dehua and Xiaota teach you guys when we get back tonight."
During the conversation between the three, the selection of 50 people had already ended, and the remaining 25 people would be decided in the afternoon. It was also close to the end of get out of class, so the ranking of the first graders could be completed in the afternoon.
