A spirit descends, Gardevoir is my childhood friend?

With the tactics finalized, everyone began to rest. This was the first time they had faced a team from the Eight Capitals in the college league, and it would be a lie to say they weren't nervous.

After lunch, spectators and contestants entered the venue one after another, and the venue instantly became noisy again, filled with the chatter of the audience.

Do you think Xingcheng No. 1 High School can hold out until the team competition?

"I have a feeling it's risky. Although Lingdu is missing a few generals, it shouldn't have any problem dealing with these ordinary schools."

"I don't think it's that bad. Their captain is quite strong. He held his own against the metal monster and he wasn't at a disadvantage. Plus, that strong chicken has a pretty strong burst of power."

"Their captain's Heartscale Pokémon? Won't it get crushed by Lingdu? I think if that Mighty Chicken unleashed its full power, it could win a round. It's unlikely the captain will win."

“…”

The chatter in the audience didn't affect Lin Xiaolin and the others much. No one spoke; some released their Pokémon for final checks, while others, like Lin Xiaolin, closed their eyes to rest.

The noise from the audience gradually subsided only after a figure slowly rose into the air.

"Hello everyone, this is the final match of our quarterfinals, and it will determine the last player to advance. Will the ultimate winner be Lingdu, who suffered a heavy blow in the last match, or Xingcheng, the dark horse that has been on a winning streak? Let's wait and see! Please welcome both players to the stage!"

After Xuancheng finished shouting these words, the emotions of the entire audience were stirred up.

"Lingdu! Lingdu! Lingdu!"

The entire venue resounded with cheers belonging to Lingdu. No one would think that a school that got there by 'luck' could compare to the Eight Great Capitals.

At this moment, Lin Xiaolin opened his eyes, stood up and walked at the front of the group, with Yan Fan and the others following closely behind.

At this moment, Lin Xiaolin felt as if he had returned to Xingcheng, to the preliminary rounds of the university league in the school, except that the cheers no longer belonged to them, but to the other side.

Lin Xiaolin didn't care and a smile appeared on his lips. They would prove everything with their strength.

Stepping onto the central battlefield, Lin Xiaolin shook hands with the captain of Lingdu.

After shaking hands, both sides left the arena, leaving only Lin Xiaolin and the opposing captain in the battlefield.

Lin Xiaolin was taken aback, clearly not expecting that the other party was also the captain starting, but a moment later he smiled, it didn't matter, the stronger the opponent, the more excited he and Xinlinbao would be.

"Oh? Both captains are starting! They have great chemistry, it looks like the first match will be exciting! And Xingcheng No.1 High's captain, Lin Xiaolin, seems to be undefeated so far. Let's see if Lingdu's captain can take him off his undefeated streak. Both teams are ready! The match begins!"

After Xuancheng shouted "Start the match!", both players threw out their Poké Balls.

A flash of red light appeared as Heartscale and Kirlia simultaneously appeared on the battlefield.

When Xinlinbao saw the other party's Pokémon, he was clearly taken aback, and then a lewd smile appeared on his face.

Lin Xiaolin: "..."

With so many people watching, you should tone it down.

"Kirullian, the alluring voice!"

The opponent launched the first attack, but Lin Xiaolin was not to be outdone. Her Heartscale Treasure flew towards Kirlia despite the sonic waves of the Enchanting Voice.

The pink sound waves emitted by the enchanting voice hit Jawful like a tickle, and Jawful showed no fear, raising its tail and lashing it at Kirlia.

The opponent was clearly taken aback, and then Kirlia instantly teleported away to dodge.

But before the teleportation was over, Xinlinbao suddenly turned around and shot off in one direction.

In the next instant, Kirlia appeared in front of Jangmo-o, and Jangmo-o headbutted Kirlia in the chest.

Kirullian cried out in pain and flew backward several meters.

Lin Xiaolin, of course, couldn't just stand by and watch. Xinlinbao immediately raised its tail and slammed it at Kirliaan.

Kirlia disappeared again in the next instant, teleporting once more.

Chapter 175 College League (21)

As if it had been anticipated, Xinlinbao slammed its dragon tail into the ground and used the recoil to propel itself into the air.

Flying through the air, it unleashed a dragon breath in one direction, and Kirlia happened to appear there!

Kirlia staggered back a few steps after being hit by the dragon's breath again, and the moment the Heartscale landed, it rushed towards Kirlia.

Although Dragon-type moves do no damage to Kirlia, they still have an impact.

"Instantaneous teleportation of the life-giving water droplet!"

The opponent was clearly stunned by the combo of Heartscale, and seeing Heartscale heading towards Kirlia, they hurriedly instructed Kirlia to dodge first and then heal themselves.

Unexpectedly, this time, the Scaleless didn't attack in any other direction beforehand, but instead went straight for Kirlia and raised its tail.

Even more surprisingly, Kirlia didn't use Teleport! Instead, she used Life Drop on the spot!

That command just now was a feint!

Kirlia, which had just condensed a drop of life water, was sent flying by a single tail strike from a Jangmo-o.

It didn't use dragon-type energy; it was just a pure, all-out swing.

A drop of water brimming with life energy that condensed in the air was swallowed whole by Heartscale, which even let out a burp before looking back at Kirlia, who was flying backward.

The entire hall fell silent, as if everyone was utterly shocked.

"Oh my god! Just now, Lin Xiaolin completely ignored Kirlia's Instant Teleport and found Kirlia's real body! The Life Drop that Kirlia painstakingly condensed was also eaten by Jangmo-o! Kirlia is in big trouble!"

Xuan Cheng's voice broke the silence, bringing the stunned audience back to their senses.

Kirlia got up from the ground, covered in dust, her green hair disheveled, and looked at Scabbard with a terrified expression.

She felt as if the other party knew her every move, and not only her, but even the entire Lingdu team was shocked beyond measure.

She couldn't understand why the other party could find Kirlia, who could teleport, with such precision, nor could she understand why the other party could guess her tricks even though she was cheating.

But she didn't have much time to think at that moment. Her Heartscale Spear launched itself forward and headed straight for Kirlia.

The captain of Lingdu gritted his teeth and forced himself to give orders.

"Phantom light!"

She could only pray that the illusionary beam's chaotic effect would trigger.

Kirlia raised her little hand and launched an invisible wave directly at Heartscale.

Just as the attack was about to hit, Xinlinbao suddenly braked and fell to the ground.

The ripples of the illusory light instantly flew over Heartscale Treasure's head.

Xinlinbao chuckled dismissively. Did he really think Xiaobao was stupid? Taking every skill head-on.

Just as the illusionary beam flew by, Heartscale slapped the ground with its tail and headed towards Kirlia.

"Teleport! Dodge quickly!"

It was too late. The Heartscale's tail was already at Kirlia's face, and the teleportation spell, which was only halfway through, was too late.

Kirlia flew backward like a cannonball, crashing directly into the barrier created by Xuan Cheng's Metagross using its psychic powers.

'boom! ’

A dull thud was heard, and Kirlia fell to the ground, unconscious.

"Oh my god!! Kirlia is unable to fight! The winner is Lin Xiaolin from Xingcheng No.1 High School!"

Xuan Cheng's voice was like a thunderclap, landing on the heads of everyone present.

Xinlinbao tossed her head, then walked back to Lin Xiaoli's side with her head held high and chest puffed out.

"Well done."

Lin Xiaolin squatted down and fed Xinlinbao a few energy cubes, then patted its head and put the Poké Ball away.

Captain Lingdu on the stage was still somewhat dazed.

Her mind was a complete mess. She couldn't understand how the Scabbard had found Kirlia's location, how it had anticipated her commands, or why they didn't need commands.

However, I quickly recalled Kirlia into its Poké Ball and headed towards the infirmary.

If Lin Xiaolin knew her true feelings, he would just laugh dismissively. Who else understands Gardevoir better than him and Xiaobao?

Although Kirlia hasn't evolved yet, it's already quite similar to Gardevoir.

The other party hadn't even mastered telepathy yet, but Lin Xiaolin knew what nonsense the other party was about to spout the moment they raised their hand.

As for the location of the instantaneous teleportation, it was naturally Lin Xiaolin who sensed it in advance and told Xinlinbao. Otherwise, how could Xinlinbao, whose brain couldn't even do simple addition and subtraction of ten-digit numbers, predict it?

Psychic-type Pokémon below the Lord level have a common problem when trying to use Teleport: they need to mark two points first.

To give an analogy, imagine two points, A and B. To teleport to each other instantly, you need to mark points A and B first, and then use your superpowers to connect the two points.

Only Pokémon of Lord level or higher can use superpowers to cover their markers, something Lin Xiaolin and Xiao Lan have already figured out.

Of course, it's unlikely that a typical Psychic-type Pokémon below the Elite level would find two markers, let alone other Pokémon; Lin Xiaolin was an exception.

All you need to do is find another point when the opponent uses teleportation. But how do you tell if the opponent is bluffing?

If you don't even mark a single point, who will believe you can teleport? It's like saying you're living the high life when you have nothing in your mouth.

After retrieving the Heartscale Treasure, Lin Xiaolin walked off the stage amidst the shocked gazes of the entire audience.

At this moment, Shi Anyang also came up.

The opposing team was clearly stunned by Lin Xiaolin's performance in the first match, and now they could clearly sense that Xingcheng No.1 High School was not simple. They were discussing tactics again.

Shi Anyang wasn't in a hurry. He played with the Poké Ball in his hand, waiting for his opponent to take the field.
