Mind Master of the Elf World

Chapter 629 The Lively Battle at the Castle (Part 2, please vote!)
"Why did you come to Carlos?" Jing He asked.

Adu laughed heartily and said, "I just happened to be in Carlos on a mission. I still have some time after the mission is over, so I thought I'd come to 'Battle Castle' to play a couple of matches before heading back."

Jing He wanted to give a thumbs up and say that he truly deserved the title of "Dragon Messenger," as he was really dedicated to battles.

But then I thought, "Speaking of which, aren't you on an undercover mission?"

Wasn't A-Du an undercover agent for the Rockets?
Speaking of this, A-Du couldn't help but show a bit of helplessness, scratching his head in distress.

"Sigh, don't even mention it. My undercover mission wasn't even finished when it was called off by the higher-ups. They told me to come back quickly to challenge for the position of one of the Four Heavenly Kings, because a senior member wants to retire."

It's not surprising that A-du became one of the Four Heavenly Kings; it was bound to happen sooner or later.

However, when A-du becomes one of the Four Heavenly Kings and wants to challenge the champion, his "good days" will begin.

What Jinghe was actually more curious about was...
"It was stopped?"

“Yeah.” Adu shrugged. “I think I’ve done pretty well. I send reports back every now and then, and I’ve even infiltrated the Rockets’ mid-to-high-level management, preparing to make an impact on the executives.”

Mid-to-high-level officials? A crackdown on North Korean cadres?
Adu, why are you so energetic when you're saying all this?

"How's the Rockets doing?" Jing He asked tentatively.

Because his partner was Jing He, an Inspector General of the International Police, and because the two had a good relationship and knew each other well, A-Du didn't hide anything from him.

"It's strange, but the Rockets team, besides the intense competition, actually offers pretty good benefits."

Wages are never delayed, and there are fixed holidays. Major holidays also come with gifts and subsidies. If you are on duty outside the office, there are field allowances and overtime pay.
"Jinghe, you don't know, if you become a manager on the Rockets, not only will your salary double, but also..."

Adu excitedly began to tell Jinghe the story.

The more he talked, the more excited Jinghe became, and suddenly she understood why the Alliance had called off the undercover operation and why they had to call Adu back so quickly.

If we don't call him back soon, Lance, the "Dragon's Messenger," might really become a Team Rocket executive!
Could we possibly see a special edition of Awatari reprinted?
unfortunately
However, the Rockets are indeed "honest". No matter who you are or what your background is, the Rockets promote the capable and demote the weak. They provide enough competition, as well as enough opportunities for advancement and good treatment.

No wonder so many people are willing to risk their lives for the Rockets and for Giovanni.

Moreover, now that the Rockets are undergoing a transformation, despite his long period of undercover work, Adu hasn't found much "evidence" about the Rockets. Instead, his own beliefs and views on the Rockets have changed.

"perhaps."

When A-Du becomes one of the Four Heavenly Kings and a champion, that will be the time when the Rockets completely complete their transformation.
This could also be seen as a far-sighted strategy by Giovanni.

"By the way, Jinghe, what brings you to Carlos? And why did you even come to the 'Battle Castle'?" Adu asked rhetorically.

"Oh." Jing He snapped out of her reverie, shrugged, and said casually, "Me? We're here for tourism."

tourism
A-Du: "."

Both came to Carlos, but he was there on a mission, while Jinghe was there for tourism. Why is there such a big difference?

Just as the two were talking, Chaklo finally climbed to the entrance of the battle castle.

"Marquis Chaklo, it is an honor to serve you." The castle butler, Yi Kong, always maintained a gentle and polite demeanor.

Chaklo was clearly no stranger to Adu, not only as one of the few dukes in the castle, but also after a brief greeting, they walked towards the castle together.

The vast battle castle was decorated luxuriously but not ostentatiously. Inside, towering white jade pillars stood, and melodious cello and piano duets drifted from a corner of the hall.

As the three entered the hall, a number of people gathered around, and some of them clearly recognized Jinghe and Adu.

"Teacher Jinghe?"

"Is Teacher Jinghe also here to battle the castle?"

"And there's Duke Adu too. This is getting quite lively."

"There's no need to worry about Duke Adu. By the way, I hope Teacher Jinghe won't be matched with someone else?"

"There's nothing we can do even if we're matched."

Small groups of people were whispering among themselves in the hall.

"It's Shimizu, the King of Pop! He's out too!"

A young man with short, fluffy blond hair and dressed in a white chef's uniform walked out of the castle. He was none other than Shimi, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Water Element in the Carlos region!
Shimi did not participate in the "Young Masters World Championship" in the Unova region because he was already one of the Elite Four in the Carlos region at that time.

However, Jinghe was no stranger to Zhimi, and the two had had some exchanges.

For example, at the ice sculpture competition held before, Zhimi was a special guest. When he presented the awards to Jinghe and Bingliuwei, the two had a brief exchange.

"The three of you, would you like to have a meal?" Zhimi asked with a smile.

As the chef specially invited by the castle for today's match, Jimmy did his best.

For him, compared to his identity as one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Water Element, he preferred his job as a chef.

Jinghe was actually used to this.

The Carlos region, modeled after France, is filled with a tranquil, languid, and romantic atmosphere.

This is why many trainers are more enthusiastic about their "side hustles," and why so many trainers have side hustles.

Didn't you see that the future champion, Karuno, and the Four Heavenly Kings all set a "good" example?

So.

Many people subconsciously believe that the strength of trainers in the Kalos region is somewhat inferior to that of trainers in other leagues.
This is easy to understand.

After sitting down in a corner of the hall, Jimmy and the castle's waiters began serving the three of them dishes that Jimmy had personally cooked.

Jinghe isn't actually hungry, but if you ask him if he can eat, he'll always say he can.

After all, which family doesn't have a few babies who are never satisfied?

"Genga~!"

Gengar devoured the beautifully decorated pastries on the plate in one gulp, smacking its lips as if they tasted quite good.

But Gengar thinks it tastes good, it's just that the portion is too small.

Meanwhile, Young Gilas looked eager to try it out. According to the "rules," it should be next, hehe!

"Gentlemen, if it's alright, could we share a table?"

At that moment, a voice came from behind Jing He.

Looking in the direction of the sound.

The newcomer was a beautiful middle-aged woman of about thirty years old, with long purple hair tied up in a bun, wearing a black fitted bodysuit and a large white cloak.

Upon seeing the visitor, Chaklo quickly introduced them:

“Teacher Jinghe, this is Ms. Ge Jihua, the dojo master of Baike City.”

Ge Jihua, the head of the Hundred-Card Dojo
Ge Jihua, on the other hand, seemed quite familiar with Jing He. As she sat down in the chair next to Jing He, she greeted him with a smile:
“Teacher Jinghe, Mr. Adu, and Master Chaklo.”

After sitting down, Ge Jihua continued:
"The starlight guided me to the battle castle, and I never expected to actually meet the person I was meant to meet."

Ok?
Gekko is not only a gym leader, but also a psychic with a side job as a fortune teller. She often helps people with astrological predictions and is known as "the one who paves the way with starlight".

These days are really lively!
Jing He asked with some doubt, "Ms. Ge Jihua, what is meant by 'the person we should meet'?"

Can a prophet predict what will happen in the Carlos region?

It would be good if this could be predicted, as Jinghe could time his escape accordingly. If possible, it's best to avoid getting involved.

But then Ge Jihua smiled mysteriously, and with a slight flick of her wrist, it seemed as if miniature stars were twinkling in her hand.

"The starlight will guide everything; Teacher Jinghe's time has not yet come."

Jing He: "."

Can Riddler just get out of the Pokémon world?

Jinghe was speechless. She poured the dishes that the waiter had just brought into Young Gilas's mouth to prevent it from eating the plate as well.

"It's quite lively today," Ge Jihua remarked meaningfully.

bang bang bang --

The clanging of metal armor drew everyone's attention to the sound coming from the castle gate.

He wore heavy, bright silver knight's armor, his burly and imposing figure was tall and strong, and a string of Poké Balls hung at his waist like a longsword.
"King Yan Kai Tian?"

"Even King Yan Kai is here, today is really lively!"

The newcomer was none other than another Elite Four member from the Kalos region, the Steel-type Elite Four member who called himself "The Man of Steel," Goose Armor!
Jinghe glanced at Adu, Chaklo, and Gejihua in front of her, then at the knight Yan Kai standing at the door, and at Zhimi who was busy in the kitchen.

Good guy.
He believed me when I told him this was the venue for the Masters Tournament.

Today is truly a day when everyone, human or ghost, has to come.
“Genga.”

Gengar stared blankly at the imposing armor of the goose armor, its dull eyes gradually revealing an uncontrollable brilliance.

Knights, armor!
Isn't this exactly what it has been dreaming of?
Gengar turned around and rummaged around on Jinghe's waist. It quickly found the Greatsmith's Poké Ball, opened it, and pulled the Greatsmith out.

"just?"

The Greatsmith was catching up on sleep when Gengar called him out. He rubbed his eyes groggily, and only after Gengar gestured did he look toward the Goose Armor heading into the castle.

"just!"

The moment the master blacksmith saw the goose armor, he perked up and unconsciously tightened his grip on the hammer handle.

It's the finest metal!

It would be such a waste not to give them a couple of blows.
"Gang ga!"

Give me one of these styles!
"Gengar barked."

"just?"

The master blacksmith glanced at Gengar's chubby, round appearance, then looked at the wiry, powerful Goose Armor opposite him.
This style?
"Yo-yo."

Seeing that Gengar's attention was completely drawn to the armor, Larvitar's eyes darted around, and he quickly poured the portion that was supposed to be Gengar's into his mouth.

Then he immediately pretended to be watching the show and nodded in agreement.

Mmm! Mmm! Yes, yes, yes! This set is great! This style is great!
The three of them couldn't help but chuckle at the sight.

The Pokémon in Jinghe's family are truly a bunch of rascals. Not only do they have all sorts of whimsical ideas, but more importantly, they actually intend to put those ideas into action.

Perhaps this is what makes Jinghe's Pokémon training different from others.

Other trainers' Pokémon, while not exactly following the rules, are more or less influenced by their trainers and have learned some so-called rules to better integrate into human society.

There's nothing inherently wrong with that. For example, riding a fiery horse or a goat will follow traffic rules.

But what about Jinghe's family?
They wouldn't run a red light, but Dragonite would choose to fly over, Larvitar would try to dig a hole to get through—would that count as running a red light? And if Jinghe hadn't stopped Gengar, it probably would have turned the red light into a green-white light.

It is Pokémon's inherent nature and is not subject to much restriction.

"Earl Jinghe, I apologize for disturbing your meal. Your opponent has been matched." The castle butler, Yi Kong, walked to the dining table and said to Jinghe with a hint of apology.

"Match found?"

So fast?
Although this was Jinghe's first time at the Battle Castle, Chaklo had told him quite a bit about it along the way.

Matchmaking for regular castle battles is generally slow. Even for earls, waiting two or three days is considered fast. For marquises and dukes, it might take more than a few matches a year.

However, Jinghe thought about it again and realized that since Zhimi had arrived as the head chef, and Zhimi's Duke promotion battle had attracted a lot of people, it was understandable that the matchmaking was quick.

Butler Yi Kong said, "Yes, your opponent is Countess Violet, who is also a count. The rules will be a 2v2 singles match. Of course, the rules can be changed if both parties agree."

Countess Violet?

Another gym leader!
Are the Gym Leaders and Elite Four of the Kalos region planning to hold a tournament at Battle Castle?
"Thank you for your help," Jing He said.

He doesn't care about his opponents; with his current rank, he's no match for people like Zhimi, Yan Kai, and Adu.

"You're too kind," the butler Yi Kong said with a slight bow. "However, before the duel, please change into your dueling attire."

This is a tradition of the battle castle.

Both sides need to change into the attire of the opposing castle before the battle, a traditional outfit similar to a formal dress, robe, and cape, to demonstrate chivalry and etiquette.

Jinghe naturally wouldn't refuse.

Soon, he changed into a brand-new black suit and a light green cape, and his entire demeanor changed instantly.

Jinghe was quite satisfied with the outfit, but the color of the cloak was a bit off.
"To make a living, you always need to have a bit of green on you."

The cloaks worn inside the battle castle, to some extent, represent the respective noble titles.

Barons are associated with white, viscounts with blue, earls with green, marquesses with yellow, dukes with red, and the highest-ranking grand dukes with purple.

Led by Yi Kong, they arrived at the castle's back garden, where there was a spacious and sturdy battlefield surrounded by waterways and towering jade pillars.

The arena is surrounded by open space on three sides, and the other side is the castle's viewing tower. Many trainers, having learned of the upcoming battle, arrived early to secure the best viewing spots.

Adu, Chaklo, and others were naturally among them.

"It's Teacher Jinghe!"

"Did Teacher Jinghe get matched with an opponent on her first visit to the Battle Castle? I wonder which 'lucky' guy it is."

"The opponent... seems to be the Violet Pavilion Master?"

When Jing He arrived at the battlefield, his opponent, a girl who looked to be in her early twenties with short silver-gray hair, also dressed in combat attire and wearing a light green cloak, appeared opposite him.

It was Violet, the gym leader of the Ebony Gym in the Carlos region.

She was holding a camera, pointing it at Jing He, seemingly preparing to take a beautiful picture of her opponent.

However, when Violet saw her opponent's appearance through the camera, her feelings became complicated.

How could it be Teacher Jinghe?!
I concede now. Can you deduct fewer points?
Violet, with a mournful face, forced a smile and said, "Hello, Teacher Jinghe."

She arrived at the battle castle, applied for a match with the castle steward, and then went to take pictures at the back of the castle. Only then was she notified that she had been matched with an opponent, who turned out to be the famous Teacher Jing He.

It is said that this teacher, Jing He, is capable of crushing a mythical beast with a single punch.

She also heard that this teacher, Jinghe, seemed quite enthusiastic about making baby cups in order to fulfill her responsibility as a teacher. She even specially made a baby Gilas wear an Everstone to maintain its "baby" appearance.

Seeing Violet's expression, Jinghe seemed to guess what she was thinking and sighed inwardly.
My reputation has been completely ruined by those fans who are actually malicious.

But he still smiled and said, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Violet Pavilion Master. I've heard you're an expert in photography?"

When photography was mentioned, Violet's attention was immediately diverted, and she became somewhat excited.

"Is Teacher Jinghe also good at photography?"

Jing He shook her head. "I don't understand it, but I have a little one at home who really likes photography."

"Loto~~"

The Rotom Dexterity popped out of Jinghe's pocket and playfully greeted Violet.

Jinghe added, "Its dream is to become the number one 'photographer' in the Pokémon world."

Ho-Oh: I feel offended.

Violet's eyes gleamed. "Oh? Then after the battle, we'll have to have a proper photography contest!"

"Ready anytime, Rotom!" Rotom perked up immediately.

A strange look flashed across Jing He's face.

If I were to film Gengar's Violet, I'd probably be quite startled.

However, after Jinghe's chat, Violet's pressure immediately lessened a lot.

So what if it's Teacher Jinghe? Hmph! Go ahead and try. I'll kneel down and show you!
"Go, rainwing moth!"

call--

The light and agile rainwing moths fluttered their wings, creating a gentle breeze as they appeared in the field, accompanied by a scattering of crystalline dust.

As a gym leader, Violet specializes in Bug-type attacks, which is related to her frequent travels and photography in the forest.

"The Violet Pavilion Master's Rainwing Moth is quite powerful."

Among the trainers watching the match were those who had challenged the White Sand Gym Leader, and naturally had some understanding of Violet's strength.

In the battle castle, titles do not fully represent strength.

"Tsk tsk, it's a pity the opponent is Teacher Jing He."

"Too."

Although Teacher Jinghe still considers himself an "ordinary trainer" and "ordinary teacher," no one dares to truly see him that way.

It is rumored that Teacher Jinghe actually has at least the strength of a Four Heavenly King, or even a champion or stronger.

The Unova champion, Adecker, once said in an interview that if he were to face Jinghe at full strength, his chances of winning might not even reach 10%.

If we set aside the exaggeration and mutual flattery, Teacher Jinghe may indeed have the strength to rival a champion.

The difference between the champion and the owner is obvious.

After all, the strength of a gym leader may vary due to factors such as age and the way they inherit their skills, but a champion is inevitably one of the top trainers in a region.

Jinghe raised an eyebrow slightly as she looked at Violet and her rainwing moth.

This... I really didn't mean to bully anyone.
"Go, Youngkiras."

"Yo-yo!!"

Upon hearing this, the baby Gilas at Jinghe's feet immediately took off running inside with great momentum.

The Bug and Flying type Rainwing Moth is immune to Ground types, but is four times weaker to Rock types.

Jing He didn't want to gain such a huge advantage in attributes, but the problem was that if he didn't send out Young Gilas, he would gain an even greater advantage.

call--

The rainwing moth flaps its wings, its feathers resembling a pair of fierce eyes, releasing a terrifying aura.

Threatening!

Sensing the scent emanating from the Rainwing Moth and gazing at its eye-like wings, Young Gilas paused in surprise.

But next second.

The little guy clenched his fists, punched his own head twice, and then roared at the rainwing moth.

"Yo-yo—!!"

I'm not easily scared!!
The rainwing moth's round little eyes shrank involuntarily, especially when it saw the two red marks on the young larva's head, it felt a little stunned.

This guy is terrifying; when he gets ruthless, he'll even hit himself.
"Oh, what a cute little guy, I love him," said Yan Kai, who was wearing full armor in the spectator area.

As a knight, he values ​​chivalry above all else, and this way of confronting intimidation is very much to his liking.

Adu also smiled and said, "Jinghe's baby Giras has truly developed a rugged style."

Rugged style?
If Younggilas knew that Adol had made such a comment about it, it would definitely have a serious talk with Adol.

I'm a desert tyrant cub, after all, and I'm quite intelligent!

Besides, what exactly is meant by "rugged style"?
It's clearly the domineering aura of a tyrant!

Didn't you see that the rainwing moth on the other side got scared?

"Rainwing Moth, Waves of Water!"

Although Mothro is a Bug/Flying type Pokémon, it still has "rain" in its name and was active on the water during the Succubus era, so it's not that it can't use Water-type moves.

hum-

The moisture was gathered by the rainwing moth, forming a shimmering ball of water in front of it, which then hurtled straight toward the young cygnet.

Using its flight ability and agile body, the rainwing moth confronted the young larva for a moment, found the young larva's "weak point", and immediately attacked without hesitation.

As the water wave was released, the rainwing moth did not stop moving, but quickly circled behind the baby giras.

Even if this attack misses, the advantage of initiative still lies with Violet.

It's not hard to see from this that Violet's actual combat skills are not bad.

but
"Young Gilas, hold them off," Jing He commanded.

Block it?
How to block?
Then, Young Gilas grinned, revealing a ferocious smile, and stomped down with his foot.

boom! !

The solid battlefield suddenly trembled, and a huge rock, like a seesaw, tilted up after Youngkiras stepped on it.

bang——

The water flowed and scattered as it hit the protruding rock.

"So, so this is how Rock-type moves can be used against Water-type moves?"

Some trainers said they learned a lot and that they had learned something new.

"Dance of Dragons!"

Taking advantage of the lull in the defense, Young Gilas's aura began to rise steadily. Seeing this, Violet's heart skipped a beat, and without hesitation, she quickly gave the order:

"Rainwing Moth, Energy Ball, interrupt it!"

A vibrant green glow flickered as the Rainwing Moth, positioned behind Young Gilas, rapidly gathered an energy ball and slammed it into Young Gilas's back, attempting to interrupt its Dragon Dance.

But, it's too late.

"Crush it!"

"Yo-yo!!"

Young Gilas let out a fierce cry, turned around abruptly, and opened its mouth to meet the emerald green energy ball that was hurtling towards it.

The energy ball, which contained grass-type energy, was bitten to pieces by Larvitar in Violet's astonished gaze!
"Bite it... it's crushed? This grass-type energy ball is so fragile?"

Many trainers were taken aback.

"Yo-yo! (￣~￣)"

Young Gilas remarked: "It doesn't even taste as good as the branches of the Tree of Origin."

hum-

At the same time, a faint light emanated from Young Gilas's body once again, and its aura actually rose again!
"Vulnerability insurance?"

Someone recognized the item that Young Gilas was carrying.

[Weakness Policy: When a Pokémon holding this item is hit by a Superior Attack, its Attack and Special Attack are raised by 2 stages!]

"No, we understand the logic, but..."

"How dare Teacher Jinghe give Larva a 'weakness insurance'!"

With a four-fold weakness to Grass and Water, Larvitar, a starter Pokémon, is so small, it could be KO'd in one hit with a move that's four times weak to it.
But the truth is, Young Gilas not only withstood it, but also crushed the energy ball.

Jing He smiled slightly.

Our baby Gilas uses the branches of the Tree of Beginning as a chew toy and the Leaf Stones as snacks.

After such tireless and dedicated training, the little guy's resistance to Grass-type attacks has indeed improved considerably.

Of course, the fact that the energy ball could withstand the damage and appear to be relatively undamaged was also partly due to Young Gilas biting it to pieces.

"Sharp stone attack!"

Now that everything is ready, it's time for us to fight back.

"Yo-yo!"

Young Gilas raised his foot again and slammed it into the ground.

Rumbling--

One after another, sharp rock spikes rose from the ground, shooting and piercing the rainwing moth.

"Rainwing moth, get out of the way!" Violet waved her hand and hurriedly called out.

call--

With a flap of its wings, the rainwing moth brought out its agility to the extreme, and its seemingly powerful attack on the sharp stones missed its target to the astonishment and amazement of the audience.

"Damn, I can confirm it with my eyes, it's definitely Teacher Jinghe herself."

"It's really powerful, but it's useless."

"Hahahaha—an 80% hit rate move missed, as expected of Teacher Jinghe."

Jing He coughed awkwardly, and facing Violet, who was patting her chest repeatedly, she said softly:

"Rockfall."

Fortunately, we anticipated this possibility. If an 80% hit rate isn't enough, then we'll use a move with a 90% hit rate!
There's always one, no, there's always one move that will hit the mark.

Sure enough, the Rainwing Moth, which had been forced into a corner to dodge the sharp rock attack, finally had no room to dodge when faced with the rock that Larva threw with all its might. The rock was as fast as a cannonball.

Bang! !

The rocks shattered, and the rainwinged moth let out a whimper before falling from the sky, rendered unable to fight!

"Yo-yo!!"

Young Kylas roared once more with great force.

I am the cub of the Desert Tyrant, and I am very strong and very smart!!

To be fair, setting aside what Young Gilas himself had said, it did indeed present some of the imposing presence and outline of a desert tyrant at this moment.

Instant kill!

The trainers watching the battle had various expressions.

Although Rainwing Moth is four times weaker to Rock, and with the boost given to Baby Giratina, one-shotting it seems quite normal.

But
They glanced instinctively at the huge rock that had fallen to the ground and shattered into many pieces, and couldn't help but swallow hard.

Turns out this was a rockfall! You'd think it was a rock cannon if you didn't know better.

“Mothra is unable to battle.” Yi Kong, who is both the butler and the referee, said, “Count Violet, please send out your next Pokémon.”

Violet retrieved the rain-winged moth, muttering under her breath:
"It's all a lie. This Larvitar... isn't it just a Tyranitar in Larvitar's skin?"

Although she muttered something, she didn't move quickly; she had already prepared herself mentally.

"Go, Colorful Butterfly!"

The white butterfly is a "home insect" in the Carlos region, and the colors of its wings vary greatly depending on its living and growing environment.

Currently, there are 20 known patterns on the wings of Vivier, making it a popular Bug-type Pokémon among Pokémon trainers.

The violet-summoned butterflies are the most common "garden pattern" form.

However, like Munchlax, Viva is a Bug/Flying-type Pokémon, and is four times weak to Rock.

How should we fight back against Young Gilas, who is also difficult to withstand a single attack from him?

"Butterfly, Poison Powder! Paralysis Powder!" Violet changed tactics.

Colorful wings fluttered, and scales fell, carrying toxins and paralyzing effects.

This is to limit Young Gilas's mobility before taking further action.

"Using 'quality' tactics against the most 'quality' trainers?"

"But logically speaking, Young Gilas doesn't have any means of countering it, does it?"

Countermeasures?

"Young Gilas, sandstorm!" Jing He waved his hand.

Scale powder?

I don't know if it will be able to drift down normally in a sandstorm.

"Yo-yo!"

Quicksand rose rapidly from beneath Eurythmus's feet, and a cloud of yellow sand instantly filled the air, sweeping across the entire battlefield in a terrifying dust storm.

The colorful scales of the white butterfly were instantly washed away by the raging sandstorm.

Even the butterflies themselves began to sway in the sandstorm.

Although the battle is not over yet, the outcome has already been decided.

Since Vivienne's methods failed to restrain Larvitar, the final outcome depends on when Larvitar's attack will hit Vivienne.

After two Rock Slides missed their mark, the third Rock Slide hit Violet and the battle ended!
"The butterfly has lost its ability to fight!"

Yi Kong announced the results of the battle: "The winner is Earl Jinghe!"

After a brief silence, applause erupted in the arena.

Yi Kong then announced again, "In view of Earl Jinghe's strength and the points earned in this battle, Earl Jinghe is promoted to Marquis Jinghe!"

There was a slight commotion in the room.

Promoted to marquis in a single match?

But when the sandstorm subsided and everyone saw the site, they fell silent.

With such strength and destructive power, I suggest directly promoting him to Duke.

The castle lords who were queuing for matchmaking suddenly felt a chill down their spines.

Oh no, oh no! Could I be matched with Teacher Jinghe?
Is it too late for us to cancel the match now?
