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

Now it's four against five, which is a huge disadvantage!

"Take out the Steelix on the other side first!" The captain's eyes sharpened as he quickly issued the order.

Politoed, Pelipper, Slowpoke, and Electabuzz all launched an attack on Steelix simultaneously.

Despite the Steelix being about to be ganged up on, the Imperial University team showed no signs of panic.

"The idea is good, but unfortunately... Gardevoir!" Ye Feng smiled faintly.

"boom!"

The four attacks landed where Steelix was located, causing a violent explosion that filled half the area with smoke.

"Hmph! Even if you...you..." The captain of the human team smiled smugly, looked at the opposite side, and was shocked to find that Steelix was standing with his teammates, while Gardevoir had disappeared—Exeggutor was charging up Solar Beam.

"Get back down and hold the line!" The captain's eyelids twitched.

With a soft "hum," a tremendous burst of psychic power erupted from the center of the smoke, dispersing the smoke and sending the four Pokémon flying with unstoppable force.

“Gardedor…” The captain of the People’s Corps frowned.

Just as the attack was about to hit Steelix, Gardevoir used Switcheroo, swapping positions with Steelix. Gardevoir used Teleport to dodge two of the attacks and then used "Steel" to block the remaining ones.

Then, using the smoke as cover, it gathered its psychic power and unleashed a charged-up version of Psychic, which knocked away the remaining four Pokémon from the human group.

"A great opportunity!" Ye Feng waved his hand.

Gardevoir threw a Thunderball at Politoed; Scyther once again used its super speed to get close, and after hitting Slowbro with X-Scimitar, it instantly escaped, followed closely by Exeggutor's Solar Beam; Rapidash unleashed Flamethrower at Electabuzz; Steelix threw Rock Slide at Pelipper.

The four poor Pokémon, still recovering from the attack of the powerful mental energy, were subjected to another round of attacks.

In an instant, Politoed, Pelipper, and Slowpoke lost their ability to fight, leaving only Electabuzz standing there unsteadily, but it was immediately taken down by Scyther's Quick Attack.

The five students from Renmin University were stunned, standing there dumbfounded as the outcome of the battle was decided in the blink of an eye.

Chapter 334 A Formidable Enemy Encountered Ahead of Schedule

three days later.

The World Masters tournament is more than halfway through, and some weaker teams have been eliminated, leaving mostly strong teams.

The teams from China, the United States, Russia, Japan, the United Kingdom, France, and Germany are among the strongest.

After the third day of the competition, they could meet at any time.

Today, the first match has attracted almost the entire world's attention.

China versus the United States.

"I didn't expect to run into you so soon." In the preparation room, Gu Yangzhou sighed softly.

"Yes, I was hoping to face them again in the finals." Master Jing leaned back in his chair, looking at the information on the American team on the screen.

"You can't hide it anymore, can you? Mega Evolution?" Master Yu said softly.

Gu Yangzhou shook his head: "It can't be hidden..."

"What's there to hide!" Master Ye sneered, gripping the keystone at his chest. "I've been wanting to get rid of them for a long time. This time, let them taste our power!"

"Hehe," Gu Yangzhou smiled faintly. With three near-legendary combatants around, the United States was no longer a threat.

"Old Ye, can you hold on?" Master Yu looked at Master Ye with some concern.

"No problem, Lao Wang and I have tried it. It can last for fifteen minutes under full force, which is more than enough for a battle!" Master Ye said with a smile.

Master Wang smiled and nodded.

"That's good." Master Yu was relieved. One-on-one battles rarely last too long; fifteen minutes was more than enough.

Although Master Wang, Master Ye, and Master Yu all mastered Mega Evolution, only Master Yu was able to maintain the evolution without any pressure.

Compared to Master Ye, Master Wang is not so good.

Master Ye is doing well. He has maintained a positive attitude and has been exercising regularly for many years. Although he is over fifty years old, his physical condition is not much different from when he was thirty, and his mental strength is not weak either.

With the help of Master Yu and Ye Feng, he further developed his mental power. Although he regrettably did not awaken superpowers or have the same strong mental power as the two of them, he still had no problem supporting Mega Evolution.

Master Wang is not doing so well anymore. He is getting old and has not been exercising as consistently as Master Ye, so his mental strength has declined considerably. Although Ye Feng tried his best, the results were not ideal.

Unfortunately, the masters are all quite old, and it's too late for them to start training their mental strength now.

A portion of the mental training methods left behind by the Kingdom of Poklandis has been translated. Gu Yangzhou selected a small portion of them that had been confirmed to be harmless and used them for the mental training program of the younger generation.

When a trainer is young, regardless of their talent, consistent training over the years will always lead to improvement.

Excluding the influence of Key Stones and Mega Stones, Mega Evolution will definitely become more widespread in the future.

The stronger the Pokémon, the greater the boost from Mega Evolution; once they are strong enough, their mental strength should be sufficient to support Mega Evolution. They don't need to be very strong; just being able to complete a battle is enough.

"Alright, it's our turn." Gu Yangzhou straightened his clothes and stood up first.

The twelve master trainers also stood up and followed Gu Yangzhou out of the preparation room and headed towards the battle arena.

The American master was already waiting at the side of the field.

"President Gu, it's been a long time." Wilbur, the president of the American company, greeted Gu Yangzhou with a fake smile.

"Yes, it's been a long time. I was in a good mood, but seeing you makes me even happier," Gu Yangzhou said with a smile.

"?" Wilbur looked puzzled. What happened to Gu Yangzhou? Did he damage his brain?

"Then enjoy your happiness. I hope to see your smile when the competition ends." Wilbur, unable to figure out Gu Yangzhou's tactics, said with a sneer.

"We'll see." Gu Yangzhou naturally didn't back down.

"Hmph!" Wilbur snorted coldly, then turned and walked off the stage.

Gu Yangzhou returned to the audience and saw twelve cold faces.

"He'll only be happy for a short while; we'll make him cry right away," Gu Yangzhou said nonchalantly.

"Yes, I also want to see how the president of the great country of America cries, hahaha!" Master Ye burst into laughter first.

The other masters also laughed.

···

In a corner of the spectator stands, Ye Feng squeezed through the crowd and found his seat, a ticket he had bought from a scalper for a large sum of money.

Looking at the foreigners of different skin colors around him, Ye Feng felt very curious.

He looked at the battlefield and saw that Gu Yangzhou and the twelve masters all had smiles on their faces, as if they looked down on the American team.

"Today is the day, a new era begins." Ye Feng clenched his fist, his eyes filled with excitement.

He will be here to witness firsthand how China's master team will open the door to a new era before the world!

Central venue.

Following the referee's command, both sides sent out their first master players.

On the Chinese side, it's Master Guo—Guo Pengfei's grandfather; while on the American side, it's a master with mixed black and white hair and white skin.

Master Guo touched the Poké Ball at his waist and sighed inwardly, "What a pity. If only I could find Steelix's Mega Stone, I could also shine on the world stage."

"Please send out your spirits!"

As the referee gave the order, Master Guo and the black-and-white-haired master each sent out their own spirits.

Steelix vs. Rhyperior.

"Game start!"

At the referee's signal, the black-and-white-haired master was the first to give instructions.

The Super Armored Rhino unleashed a fierce charge, hurtling towards the Steelix with overwhelming momentum.

"Dig a hole!"

Master Guo calmly gave the order. This wasn't the first time he and the master opposite him had fought, and they had each won and lost.

The giant steel snake quickly burrowed into the ground, and the super armored rhinoceros's attack missed. Instead of stopping, it continued to run around the field.

"The same old tricks, nothing new?" the black-and-white-haired master sneered, then gave the order, "Earthquake!"

The Super Armored Rhinoceros ran and leaped up, landing heavily on the ground.

"boom!"

Just as the Super Armored Rhino was about to land, a mound suddenly appeared on the ground, and then the Steelix burst out and rammed into the Super Armored Rhino's waist.

With a scream of agony, the Super Armored Rhino endured the pain and slammed its right hand, which was wreathed in flames, down hard on the head of the Giant Steel Serpent.

"boom!"

With a loud, teeth-grinding thud, Steelix was slammed to the ground by Fire Punch.

"Continue, Flame Fist!" the black-and-white-haired master shouted.

"Grab it!" Master Guo said coldly.

Steelix twisted its body quickly to dodge the Flame Punch attack, then slipped around like an eel and tightened its grip on the Super Armored Rhino!

"Frozen Fang!"

Steelix's fangs emitted a chilling aura as it bit down hard on the Armored Rhino's shoulder, instantly causing frost to spread rapidly—triggering a freezing effect!
