I haven't decided on a name for my Pokémon trainer yet.

Ye Feng stared at the girl opposite him, his eyes wide.

She looks quite delicate, but that's definitely just an act. She's probably putting on a show to make herself look less careful.

Ha, I won't fall for that!

The girl got the first move by playing rock-paper-scissors.

"Go, Incineroar!" the girl sent out her Pokémon.

A monkey-like creature with a body covered in thick fur, a prominent cross-shaped vein near its ear, and sturdy limbs appeared on the field.

As soon as the fiery monkey appeared, it jumped around shouting and constantly provoking Ye Feng.

Ye Feng's spirits lifted; just as he expected!

How could someone who uses Incineroar be as weak as they appear? It's all an illusion!

"Go ahead, Gyarados!"

Ye Feng threw out the Poké Ball.

The appearance of Gyarados immediately attracted the attention of Primeape.

The Infernape started taunting Gyarados, giving it the middle finger and mocking it.

Although Gyarados is a domesticated creature and not as aggressive as its wild counterpart, it couldn't help but get angry when provoked like this and roared at Primal.

"Game start!"

The referee didn't care about the interactions between the elves; as long as they didn't break the rules, he immediately announced the start.

"Infernape, use Focus Charge!" the girl commanded. Seeing Gyarados's imposing aura, she knew her opponent was formidable and planned to boost her stats before attacking.

"Dragon Dance!" Ye Feng was overjoyed. His opponent didn't attack directly, which gave Gyarados a perfect opportunity to perform its dance.

"Use True Qi Fist!" the girl commanded.

"Inch Force - Iron Tail!" Ye Feng waved his hand.

"boom!"

The fist collided with the tail, and Infernape let out a scream as it was sent flying, rolling several times on the ground before coming to a stop, motionless.

The referee paused for a moment, ran over to check on the Primeape's condition, and loudly announced, "Primeape is unable to battle; Gyarados wins!"

Ye Feng was stunned. That's it?

Shang Yixue and her teammates, sitting in the audience, covered their foreheads tightly.

I already told him to order whatever he wanted...

Chapter 193 I didn't use my full strength!

The girl covered her face and ran downstairs.

It looks like she's crying.

Ye Feng scratched his head and subconsciously looked back, only to find that his teammates were all looking at him like he was scum.

Even the referee's expression was a little strange—it's quite rare to see a player being beaten to tears.

"Why does it seem like it's my fault? She's clearly too weak," Ye Feng muttered to himself.

The referee's lips twitched. He glanced at Ye Feng speechlessly, but couldn't say anything. He could only urge the next contestant to come on stage.

The second contestant was a boy.

He glared fiercely at Ye Feng as soon as he stepped onto the field: "You actually made our team's little cutie cry, I won't let you get away with this!"

"···"

No, we're here to compete, can we not get so worked up?

Ye Feng opened his mouth, but since he was the one who made the girl cry, he felt guilty no matter what he said, so he had no choice but to shut his mouth.

"Go, Scizor!" the boy threw out the Poké Ball.

A creature covered in crimson armor, somewhat resembling a mantis, appeared on the field.

Ye Feng was no longer surprised to see Scizor. After seeing the Lava Amplifier, he knew that there were special environments in secret realms or the wild that could help Pokémon evolve in a special way.

Otherwise, where would you find Pokémon like Gengar, Magmortar, and Electivire in the wild that need to be traded to evolve?

"Giant pincer mantis, bullet punch!"

Scizor let out a powerful shout and then charged towards Gyarados.

However, Gyarados easily blocked the opponent's attack with its Iron Tail, and then used its strength to send Scizor flying.

"Dragon Dance!"

Despite winning the first match so easily, Ye Feng remained completely unfazed.

There are still three battles to go. Now that this Scizor can't pose a threat to Gyarados, let Gyarados boost its stats. With an overconfident boost, it should be able to take on five opponents in one go.

Of course, Dragon Dance cannot be used indefinitely. This move also puts a considerable burden on the Pokémon's body. The more times it is used, the greater the burden becomes, and it increases exponentially.

Just like Gu Ruyun's Garchomp, theoretically it can use Dragon Dance 4 times in its maximum state—but given that Garchomp's strength, the boost after using Dragon Dance twice is already quite exaggerated.

However, in battle, strong opponents won't give you many opportunities to use Dragon Dance—according to Gu Ruyun's experience, using it twice is already the limit in a battle, both in terms of opportunities and for Garchomp itself.

Just like in the battle between the two, Garchomp only used it once.

Those who are weak don't need to use it so many times.

Ye Feng's Gyarados seems to have an innate talent for Dragon-type energy—it's unclear whether its father or mother has a story with Dragon-type Pokémon.

After special training, I can now use Dragon Dance 4 times at most.

Of course, 4 times is a theoretical value.

After using it 4 times, although the strength can be increased to an exaggerated level, the power will be too great and it will be easy to lose control. At the same time, the burden on the body will be extremely huge. After about half a minute, the stamina will be exhausted and the person will be unable to continue fighting.

It is not suitable for use in actual combat.

Using it twice was the number of times Ye Feng determined to be most suitable in actual combat after several experiments.

After two Dragon Dances and one overconfident power-up, Gyarados's current state has reached an exaggerated level.

"Water flow tail!" Ye Feng shouted the order.

With a "whoosh!", Gyarados charged towards Scizor, leaving behind a trail of afterimages. Its speed was almost as fast as Arcanine when it activated Hyper Move.

Before the scyther could react, it felt a huge dark shadow loom over it. As soon as it looked up, it saw a massive tail, wreathed in water, lashing out at it.

The Water Tail lashed heavily against Scizor, knocking it unconscious without a sound. The Pokémon was sent flying dozens of meters, nearly landing on the other side of the field.

"..." The boy stared in disbelief at the motionless mantis in the distance, speechless.

"Scizor is unable to battle, Gyarados wins!"

Although the referee already knew the result, he still dutifully went over to check on Scizor's condition before returning to announce Gyarados's victory.

With its second victory, Gyarados's overconfidence kicked in again, and its momentum surged once more.

Feeling the powerful energy surging through its body, Gyarados couldn't help but let out an excited roar.

"How can the first match be played like this?" Shang Yixue covered her forehead.

Generally speaking, unless you encounter a strong opponent, you should conserve your strength at the beginning to avoid other opponents analyzing your weaknesses.

He still lacks experience. I'll give him a good lesson when we get back. Shang Yixue thought to herself.

Although Ye Feng's trainer skills have reached an advanced level and his Pokémon are very strong, he still lacks experience in participating in major competitions.

"It's because the captain wants Ye Feng to take on five opponents at once that he's putting in so much effort," a teammate whispered.

"I just hope so, I don't mean I really want him to win 1v5!" Shang Yixue opened her mouth to argue.

"But don't you know Ye Feng's personality? He's so serious..."

"Fine, it's my fault." Shang Yixue sighed.

The outcome of the next few matches was no longer in doubt.

With two Dragon Dances and two instances of overconfidence, the third opponent was defeated with almost no effort from Gyarados.

Overconfidence has struck again.

The remaining two opponents fared even worse, both being instantly defeated and eliminated.

"Waaaaah, what's going on with this year's college league? How can there be such monster opponents!" The players who were defeated by Ye Feng in a 1v5 battle burst into tears.

Although their strength ranks low among the league teams, being beaten like this in individual matches is still a huge blow.

"Alright, Ye Feng, even though you won, I still have to say something to you."

As soon as Ye Feng returned to his seat, Shang Yixue came over.

"Huh? What's wrong?" Ye Feng looked bewildered.

"Didn't I tell you to play casually? How did you play like that? Who goes all out like that? You have to understand that this is only the first match. What if other strong teams analyze your weaknesses?" Shang Yixue lectured.

"Huh? I didn't use my full strength? I didn't use any more short-range force later on, I just used ordinary moves." Ye Feng continued to be confused.

With the added boost of Dragon Dance and excessive confidence, and with the opponent's weak strength, Ye Feng didn't need to use his inch-force technique at all. The first match was simply a case of Ye Feng being overly cautious.
