Manor Lord of the Elf World

Chapter 230 The Tournament Concludes!

With the conclusion of the second round of the top ten competition, the competition has clearly entered a heated phase.

The battle raged fiercely inside the arena, and the scene outside was equally lively.

At this stage of the first United Kingdom Alliance Tournament, only eight contestants remained, and almost every spectator was enthusiastically discussing who would ultimately win the championship.

The sounds of people discussing this could be heard everywhere—in hotels, restaurants, and on the streets.

Inside the castle, Raven sat on a recliner, leisurely sipping his red tea.

This black tea was brewed by his people from tea leaves picked from the Pokémon, the Four Seasons Deer. It has a sweet taste with a hint of tea fragrance, making it a very pleasant drink.

Outside, the stadium was filled with enthusiastic shouts and cheers.

Inside the castle, however, there was a peaceful and serene scene.

The foam squirrels were happily playing hide-and-seek in the castle, while in the ecological park behind the castle, the Pokémon that had been harmed by humans were leisurely sunbathing.

Inside the bedroom, the Pokémon around Raven were all relaxed, lying on the carpet and enjoying the wonderful time.

Although the game wasn't over yet, being in this atmosphere, Raven seemed to already foresee how wonderful his life would be afterward.

Once the Elite Four and the Champion are established, he will entrust these five Ox-Horse to handle Pokémon-related matters in various regions on his behalf.

Wow, just thinking about it makes me happy.

"Your Majesty Raven."

Elif's footsteps came from behind.

The old steward walked up to Raven and reported, "Your Majesty, the fourth round of the competition is over. There is only one more match left, and the final spots will be decided."

Raven closed his eyes and said, "No rush, be patient, Elif."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Time ticked by, and soon an excited voice came from behind.

"Your Majesty, the final round of the top ten has concluded!" a guard reported. "The five finalists are Miss Anna, Xiaochun, Derek, Lucas, and Raphael!"

The list of top earners and underdogs has been released.

Raven opened his eyes and laughed, "It seems the champion is among these five."

"Does Your Majesty wish to go and watch the battle?" Elif asked.

Raven shook his head. He had a general idea of ​​the strength of these five people, and it was actually easy for him to guess who the final winner would be.

After all, the real world is not a game, and only a few trainers can catch up with those who have several years of training experience in just one year.

And indeed, things turned out exactly as Raven had predicted.

After two days of competition, Lucas, Raphael, and Xiaochun were the first to be eliminated.

The three of them occupied the last three seats of the Four Heavenly Kings.

As for the final champion and the leader of the Four Heavenly Kings, it will be decided between Anna and Derek.

Two days later, the final battle officially began.

On this day, the entire arena was packed to capacity.

Even the seats in the air are already full.

With no seats available on the ground, the spectators rented flying Pokémon from the Pokémon Flying Taxi Company and rode them to watch the final match from mid-air.

The stands were packed with people, the cheers and shouts almost lifting the roof off, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the two trainers on either side of the field.

On the left, Derek, dressed in a dark blue training uniform, had sharp, eagle-like eyes and exuded a fierce, aggressive aura.

He is the undisputed genius of Dragon and Fighting types in this tournament, crushing his opponents all the way to the finals!
On the right, the young Anna stands tall and straight, her long golden hair tied in a high ponytail. Her smile is calm and composed, but her eyes are full of fighting spirit.

"Both trainers have confirmed their lineups!" The referee raised his flag and his voice boomed through the loudspeaker, "6v6 all-out battle, until all Pokémon on one side are unable to battle—the match begins!"

"It's finally starting!"

"Derek's dragon army is an unstoppable force! Can Ana withstand it?"

There was a lot of discussion in the audience, with almost everyone favoring the imposing Derek.

Derek made the first move, his arm swung sharply, and the Poké Ball drew a cold arc in the air: "Don't disappoint me in the first battle, Lucario!"

Blue light bursts forth!

Lucario, with its agile figure and robust physique, landed with a thud. With a stomp of its feet, fine cracks appeared on the surface of the battle arena. The combined pressure of Fighting and Steel types swept across the entire arena, and its gaze calmly locked onto its opponent.

"Oh? Lucario is starting?" Anna chuckled, throwing out the first Poké Ball. "Then we won't hold back, Braviary!"

A sudden gust of wind erupted!

The raptor Pokémon with a wingspan of over three meters soared and circled, its sharp eagle eyes sweeping across the ground below. This warrior eagle had been bred to near perfection!

"Battle begins!"

Faced with such a formidable opponent, Derek did not hesitate to launch a fierce attack. He ordered in a deep voice, "Lucario, Metal Claw, break through head-on!"

Lucario pushed off the ground with its feet, its body shooting out like an arrow. Its right claw was covered with a cold, hard metallic sheen, and it slashed straight at the Warrior Eagle with a whooshing sound!

"Avoid them, then the brave birds will launch a fierce attack!" Anna calmly commanded.

With a flap of its wings, the Warrior Eagle suddenly soared into the air, narrowly dodging the metal claws. The next second, its entire body was enveloped in violent flying energy, and it swooped down like a golden meteor!

boom--!
The heavy blow sent Lucario staggering backward, leaving deep furrows beneath its feet and several gruesome wounds on its body.

"What?!" Derek's pupils contracted.

He hadn't expected Anna's Warrior Eagle to react so quickly.

"Aerospace missile!"

A blue energy ball condensed in Lucario's palm, carrying the pressure of Aura as it hurtled into the air.

"The wind is rising!"

As Anna finished speaking, the Warrior Eagle flapped its wings wildly, and the violent airflow instantly shattered the wave missile, followed by another air slash!

Lucario staggered to the ground, struggled for a few moments, and finally lost all ability to fight.

Lucario is unable to battle!

As soon as the referee's voice fell, the entire stadium erupted in uproar.

No one expected that Derek, a favorite in the tournament, would be instantly defeated in his first start!

“Lucario…” Derek’s heart sank slightly. He recalled Lucario and decisively threw out a second Poké Ball: “Don’t be careless, Red-faced Dragon!”

A ferocious dragon with crimson scales roared as it made its entrance, spreading its dragon-like aura. Its rough, hard skin exuded an invincible brute force.

"Warrior Eagle, Tailwind!" Anna didn't choose to attack, but instead raised her hand to give the order.

The raptor flapped its wings, and a pale blue whirlwind enveloped the entire area.

"Damn it!" Derek's heart skipped a beat. "Red-faced Dragon, Dragon Claw, interrupt it!"

The red-faced dragon grinned and pounced, but with the help of the tailwind, the warrior eagle easily dodged and landed several air slashes, slowing down the red-faced dragon's movements.

"Brave bird, attack fiercely, finish them off!"

The figure, enveloped in a powerful current of air, swooped down once more, aiming for a fatal blow!

The red-faced dragon's massive body crashed to the ground, completely losing its fighting ability.

Derek made two substitutions in quick succession, and his face turned extremely grim. He was simply not in the same league as his opponent!

But the battle continues.

"Tundra Bear, please, use Ice Pillar Slam!"

The giant ice bear slammed its fist on the ground, and countless sharp ice spikes rained down from the sky. This sudden, wide-range attack caught the warrior eagle off guard, and it was struck by the giant ice pillars on the spot.

Ice-type is super effective against Flying-type. The Warrior Eagle's wings froze, and it fell to the ground with a mournful cry.

"Warrior Eagle, stand up!" Anna shouted immediately.

But Derek wouldn't let this opportunity slip by.

"Tundra Bear, Freeze Beam!"

A beam of extremely cold light swept out, engulfing the warrior eagles who had no time to get up.

"The Warrior Eagles are incapacitated!" the referee announced.

In the first phase of the confrontation, both sides had their share of wins and losses, but the atmosphere became increasingly tense.

"Not bad!" Anna recalled her Warrior Eagle, a smile appearing on her face as she said, "Duckbill Fire Dragon, enter the fray!"

Flames erupted as the Magmar made its grand entrance, a scorching wave of heat washing over you, its fire-type aura directly overwhelming the Tundra Bear. "Close combat!" Derek gambled everything.

The tundra bear roared and charged forward with incredible brute force.

"Flame Jet!"

The raging flames engulfed everything, ice and fire clashing violently. The thick fur of the tundra bear appeared so fragile and vulnerable under the scorching heat of the flames.

Derek wanted to fight again, but Anna had already given the order: "Flame Fist, finish it off!"

A fist burning with flames slammed into the tundra bear's head, the giant bear's eyes rolled back, and it collapsed to the ground.

Derek gritted his teeth, took out a new Poké Ball, and with a flash of white light, Haxorus's agile figure appeared.

Derek knew he was in a very bad situation. He was unwilling to accept it, but his opponent was simply too strong.

Derek tried his best to remain calm: "Dual Haxorus! Dragon Dance Enhancement!"

One of his trump cards at this conference!

The Twin Axe Dragon wielded its two giant axes, its energy surging, its attack and speed increasing exponentially, and its dragon might intimidating the entire scene!
"Big Flame Burst!" Anna calmly commanded.

The flames exploded, and the Double-Haxorus tanked the damage, remaining as steady as a mountain.

"Now! Dragon Claw!"

The giant axe cleaved down with unparalleled power!
The Duckbill Fire Dragon didn't even have time to dodge before it was instantly killed.

Anna narrowed her eyes slightly; this was the kind of battle she wanted!

She decisively threw out another Poké Ball. A flash of white light appeared, and the Electivire's tall body crashed to the ground.

"Electric Beast, 100,000 Volts!"

A violent surge of electricity erupted, crackling and coiling around the double-axe war dragon, causing its entire body to convulse uncontrollably.

"Splitter!"

The Haxorus launched a furious counterattack, but Electivire took the damage head-on and landed a powerful Flame Punch on its vital spot!

The Dragon-type ace has fallen to the ground with a thud!

Derek was already sweating profusely, and he suddenly threw out the fifth elf.

"Throw the wrestler! Throw the wrestler!"

The Fighting-type Throwing Ghost was highly skilled, grabbing Electivire and slamming it to the ground. After a fierce battle, it finally defeated Electivire, but it was seriously injured. Although it hadn't fallen yet, it was retrieved into its Poké Ball by Derek.

At this point, Derek had only one ace left—

Three-headed dragon!

Anna, however, still has three creatures left: Miss Skirt, Rogue Crocodile, and Zoroark.

Faced with the three-headed dragon, Anna chose to don Miss Skirt for the battle.

Facing Miss Skirt across from him, the three-headed dragon roared, its terrifying dragon-type pressure causing the entire arena to tremble slightly. This was Derek's last trump card and his only hope for a comeback.

"Dragon Star Cluster!" Derek took a deep breath.

A giant dragon-type energy ball shot straight into the sky, and in the next instant, the sky was dyed purple, and countless meteorites burning with raging flames fell from the sky.

This move is so powerful it covers the entire field, making it an almost unstoppable area-of-effect attack!

Miss Skirt's small body appeared so tiny and fragile.

Seeing this, the hearts of countless viewers began to pound wildly.

Power... such terrifying power!

With this attack, Anna will probably lose immediately!

However, Anna only let out a soft shout in response to this move.

"Hold on!"

A white barrier instantly appeared in front of Miss Skirt, managing to withstand this devastating blow!
However, they only managed to protect the first meteor; more meteorites followed closely behind, crashing down on Miss Skirt.

Despite the shattered state, Miss Skirt was engulfed in the explosion, her body clearly severely injured.

Seeing this, Derek finally smiled: "It's over! Dragon Pulse!"

At least... at least they didn't lose too badly, did they?
However, facing this near-fatal Dragon Pulse, Anna remained calm and composed, issuing the following commands:

"Avoid it and then use a trick!"

Just as the dragon's wave brushed past her, Miss Skirt turned gracefully, and a magical power enveloped her entire body.

"That is...?"

Most viewers didn't understand this move, but Anna's lips curled into a confident smile.

“Evil Pulse!” Derek frowned and continued his pursuit.

The three-headed dragon moved with all three heads, unleashing a crushing surge of dark energy.

Anna's eyes suddenly sharpened like knives, her voice clear and firm:
"Now—the alluring voice!"

boom------!
The Fairy-type sound wave, amplified by the trickery, carried a terrifying power four times stronger than Hydreigon's, piercing through the Dark Pulse and striking Hydreigon's head with perfect accuracy!

"Roar--!!"

The three-headed dragon let out a mournful cry, its massive body convulsed violently a few times, and crashed heavily onto the battle platform, never to rise again.

A miraculous comeback!

"The three-headed dragon is unable to fight!" the referee announced.

Seeing this, Derek's face turned ashen.

He only had one left, a wounded throwing ghost.

However, even a wrestler in his prime would probably be powerless in the face of this situation.

“You are a very formidable opponent. I noticed you a long time ago!” Anna said.

She slowly tossed out the last Poké Ball.

A dark figure appeared as if by ghost.

Zoroark!

Derek was slightly taken aback.

“Come on, let’s have this final battle!” Anna said.

"Throw wrestler, throw wrestler!" Derek closed his eyes, trying to make a last-ditch effort.

The throwing demon pounced forward, but it was already at its last gasp.

"Shadow Claw!"

Anna's voice was understated, yet carried an undeniable determination.

Zoroark flashed, dodging the attack like a ghost, and his dark shadow claws, carrying the force of a kill, slammed into the back of the throwing ghost!

boom!
The throwing demon staggered to the ground, closed his eyes, and completely lost his ability to fight.

The entire stadium fell silent for a moment, but what followed was a deafening roar of shouts and cheers.

Because they witnessed the birth of the champion!

The referee raised his flag high, and his voice resounded throughout the venue:
"Thrower is unable to battle! All of Derek's Pokémon are unable to battle!"

"The victor of this battle is Anna!"

boom--!!

The cheers erupted like a tsunami!
The champion has been crowned!
Derek stood there, stunned, watching Anna smile calmly on the field. Finally, he gave a wry smile and slowly retrieved his Poké Ball.

He lost.

They lost to a powerful and terrifying opponent.

They accepted their defeat wholeheartedly.

Anna gently stroked Zoroark's head, looked up at the top of the hall, her eyes bright.

Anna knew that the teacher was watching her.

She gave a happy smile in that direction.

She did it; she did not let her teacher down!
