You're not allowed to play Pokémon!

Chapter 169 The Masters Tournament is just for fun; to truly learn skills, you still need to watch Teacher Yu.
The date is Monday, December 22nd.

Coincidentally, since the start of the Masters tournament, the southern region of Padiya, which should have experienced several days of continuous light rain, has unusually enjoyed several consecutive sunny days.

This unusual phenomenon, which violates meteorological patterns, left experts and students in related fields completely baffled.

However, since it has no impact on the ecology of the Padilla region, and the current comfortable temperature has made many Pokémon more active, they have quickly and happily accepted this somewhat warm winter.

"This thing is actually pretty useful..."

Strolling through the streets of Tabletop City, Qingyu, with her hands in her pockets, played with the "Sunny Day Cinderella" item produced by the system. Looking up at the boundless blue sky and white clouds, she felt relaxed and happy.

As expected of cutting-edge technology produced by a comedy anime.

If we can figure out the principle behind this, even Georgios's primitive regression might not be able to beat my weather...

While internally complaining, Qingyu quickly arrived at the open-air arena located in the center of Tabletop City.

Today, the Dragon Attribute Master Tournament, which countless viewers have been eagerly anticipating, finally came to its final show.

The final match was between Zhulan and Adu.

One is the current face of Sinnoh, a rookie champion who swept the entire Sinnoh League with an invincible and crushing style in a year;

The other one is Kanto's star player, a Dragon-type Elite Four member who is widely recognized as having championship potential but unfortunately has had some bad luck.

It symbolizes the transition between the old and the new, and is also an epic clash between two equally matched forces.

Therefore, when Qingyu arrived at the audience seats, they were already packed, with countless people cheering enthusiastically, waiting for the exciting battle to begin.

"The atmosphere for watching the finals is definitely different."

Qingyu nodded, and after a moment's thought, immediately took out four Poké Balls from his pocket.

In that case, let these little guys experience the atmosphere of a high-level ball game in advance.

Who knows, someday in the future, as a newcomer to Padia, I might also have the opportunity to stand on a stage of this caliber with them?

Several red lights flashed, and the little guys from Qingyu appeared at the front of the audience.

It seems a big guy has snuck in among them.

"Gah..."

Ugh, can't I just stay inside the ball and take a nap...?

Millerton yawned, looked up at the noisy crowd above, and snorted in annoyance.

Its appearance instantly attracted the attention of Xiaochun, who was standing nearby.

As an expert in breeding dragon Pokémon, Tsubaki could tell at a glance that Qingyu's Pokémon was a dragon she had never seen before.

only……

Normally, shouldn't dragon Pokémon be pursuing great power and being more excited about such a high-profile event?

Why does Qingyu seem to be the complete opposite?

Xiaochun pondered for a moment, but since the two weren't that close, she didn't ask the rather impolite question.

“Hmm——!”

When the baby dragon opened its eyes, it suddenly found itself in a very high place. It became excited and walked towards the railing with an arrogant gait.

"road!"

Riolu, with a serious expression, picked up the baby dragon that was about to fall headfirst.

After handing the baby dragon to Qingyu, it quickly turned its gaze back to the battlefield below, quietly waiting for the match to begin.

This was the first time it had ever seen the boss fight in a formal setting.

By observing battles between powerful individuals, one might gain some insights and experiences.

As for Ibrahimovic...

Aoba watched as Eevee was skillfully lured away by Gadria's psychic powers and held in her arms with a look of enjoyment, and couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his mouth.

Using your superpowers to fight Eevee, Gadria, you're quite the ruthless one.

Oh well, it's almost evolved anyway, so let's just let it be until it evolves.

"We're live now, everyone!"

As Rotom entered streaming mode, Qingyu quickly appeared in the live stream feed. [Great, the finals are finally here!]

[Teacher Yu's commentary is so professional, I find watching the official live stream quite boring...]

[The Masters Tournament is just for fun; to truly learn skills, you should watch Yu Laoshi's live stream!]

With countless comments flooding in, the live stream's popularity instantly surpassed seven figures, and the trend not only didn't slow down but actually increased, maintaining a rocket-like upward momentum.

Even many audience members at the scene quietly entered the live broadcast room after receiving a notification on their phones, intending to engage with both online and offline activities.

"You're already here, why are you still playing on your phone?"

The other side of the audience.

Beside Professor Oak, Green suddenly noticed Red taking out his phone, and a cryptic smile immediately appeared on her lips. She couldn't help but comment on it.

"..."

Crimson remained silent, only sharing the phone screen with Green.

Upon noticing the cheerful young man with a sunny smile in the picture, Qinglu paused for a moment, then asked with a complicated expression:
"Is he the Qingyu Hall Master who stole the show with Patchlitz in the exhibition match before?"

Because of his outstanding performance in the exhibition match, Qinglu successfully remembered this young man who was not much older than himself but had already stood on the stage of the Masters Tournament.

"Ah."

After giving a brief reply, Crimson fell silent.

Professor Oak, who was standing next to the two, was drawn to the topic. After glancing down, he suddenly realized what was going on.

"It's Qingyu, that kid. He's very strong, especially in tactical design and command."

"So you really should study him carefully, he might give you some details that you might not have noticed."

"Grandpa, do you know him?"

Qinglu raised an eyebrow.

There aren't many trainers who can be praised by their own grandfathers, and each one of them is undeniably strong.

Even now, I am far from being able to gain my grandfather's approval.

"I don't know him, but he's very famous on Pokémon TV. I've seen his videos, and he's definitely a trainer with a strong personal style."

Professor Oak shook his head and smiled slightly.

"If you want to get stronger, you should learn from trainers who are better than you, right, Blue?"

"……I see."

Green sighed and looked at Crimson.

"I didn't bring my phone, do you mind if we watch it together?"

The two quickly stood shoulder to shoulder, quietly waiting for the battle to begin.

Seeing this, Professor Oak couldn't help but smile kindly again.

Although they consider Crimson a nemesis they must defeat, their relationship remains as good as ever.

At that moment, a man sitting not far away, wearing an orange scarf and looking like a physical education student in a dark leather shirt, noticed the old man on the other side and his eyes widened instantly.

Isn't that Professor Oak?!
That great predecessor, whom even their unique Galar fighting legend and multiple-time Galar champion, Master Mastedt, was ashamed of...

But didn't this senior give up fighting for many years and focus on his academic research?

Kibana's gaze shifted to the two boys beside Professor Oak.

A bold idea quickly came to his mind—

Perhaps these two boys are the very ones Professor Oak has chosen as the successors of the Kanto lineage...

Will Kanto finally see a young champion break the deadlock after many years next year?
However, Cibana's shock did not last long.

The atmosphere of the competition was quickly ignited by the host's opening remarks.

Amid cheers and shouts from countless spectators, the two contestants quickly emerged from the contestant tunnel and appeared in the center of the highly anticipated battle arena.

The war is about to break out!
