Pokémon: Hard work pays off, moves can be upgraded infinitely.

"What the hell is this? A Super Saiyan transformation?"

Standing in the red team's area, Mu Yun was startled when he saw Lin Youqi with his hair flowing and surrounded by a blood-red mist.

Why are "superpowers" being used in a perfectly normal Pokémon battle?

Referee, I want to report someone for cheating!

Well, Mu Yun was just internally complaining.

He had heard Wang He explain about gifted individuals and had also seen them in formal competitions.

Like the White Dragon Cup, which is full of top players, there are always many talented individuals every year.

However, this was the first time Mu Yun had ever seen someone with Lin Youqi's level of performance.

To be honest, it was a bit unexpected for him.

"That's right!!!"

As the crimson mist surrounding Lin Youqi intensified, the forest lizard lying at the edge of the arena suddenly opened its tightly closed eyes.

Wisps of crimson mist also emerged around him, drifting slowly.

"Something like a resurrection item...?"

Seeing the forest lizard stand up again, showing no sign of discomfort on its face, Mu Yun made a slight guess in his mind.

To be fair, in a one-on-one match, this kind of resurrection-like talent is really a bit overpowered.

After all, in a battle of the same level, the side with two lives has a clear advantage!

Unfortunately, for Xiao Du, the difference between one life and two lives is simply having one more move.

"Little Du, one more..."

"That's right!!"

Before Mu Yun could finish speaking, just a few seconds after he stood up, the menacing forest lizard suddenly let out a miserable scream.

Immediately afterward, to Mu Yun's bewildered gaze, he covered the spot where Xiao Du had just attacked with both hands, knelt on the ground, and gasped for breath.

Then, the crimson mist surrounding him suddenly trembled and began to slowly dissipate.

puff!

To Mu Yun's astonishment, the forest lizard collapsed to the ground, its eyes transforming into mosquito coils.

..............................

[Ding! Target detected as Short-Term Task 8: Provincial Joint Examination II. Bonus points awarded: 54!]

..............................

"?"

Hearing the system notification, Mu Yun felt no surprise, only a head full of question marks.

Wait, what's going on here?

Just now, the forest lizard was full of fighting spirit, how did it fall down in the blink of an eye?

Does "superpower" have an expiration date?

As Mu Yun was thinking, another thud sounded.

He looked over at the sound and saw that Lin Youqi, who had just been so passionate, had fallen to the ground.

There were still faint beads of blood on his body.

Seeing this, Mu Yun seemed to be deep in thought.

It seems that using the "Resurrection Armor" is not as easy as he thought.

"Yu Qi!"

In the audience, Lin Youzhe looked anxious as he watched Lin Youqi collapse just as he was about to unleash his full power.

If it weren't for the distance and the protective isolation, he would have loved to fly over immediately to check on his younger brother.

This is the Lin family's prodigy, they can't let an ordinary match ruin his health!

"The Forest Lizard is unable to fight; the winner is the red team's Beedrill!"

Upon seeing the forest lizard's eyes transform into mosquito coils, the referee immediately announced...

After saying that, he immediately waved his hand, signaling the medical staff waiting around to come forward.

This is, after all, a provincial competition with an audience, so there absolutely cannot be any safety issues.

..............................

Inside the rest area of ​​the 202-player battlefield.

"Holy crap! Lin the Madman is down? This is just too outrageous!"

Seeing Lin Youqi collapse just seconds after his power surged, Lü Jiayi couldn't hold back her expression for the first time and blurted out the national treasure in her voice.

Is this Beedrill really a starter Pokémon bred by someone of the same age?

Is he really not the illegitimate child of that master-level elf?

In just one moment, even the toughest man like Lin Youqi couldn't bear the pain and fainted.

No, how is she supposed to fight like this!

"Sister Jiayi, what happened to this big guy? Why did he suddenly fall to the ground?"

Chi Duoduo, who was standing to the side, was also a little confused.

It's just a competition, this guy isn't trying to scam Brother Yun, is he?

That's terrible!

"Duoduo, the situation is complicated. All I can say is that your Yun-ge is really amazing..."

Lü Jiayi looked at the boy's figure on the screen with a complicated expression and murmured something.

"Are you even better than Sister Jiayi?"

Chi Duoduo asked another question, seemingly with some concern.

"I?"

As if she had heard a funny joke, Lü Jiayi pointed to herself and said with a wry smile:

"I'm not worthy of him. From now on, I'll call him Brother Yun. Really, I'm just a little brother next to him!"

Lü Jiayi said that her aunt was right, and she was indeed not as good as Mu Yun.

Chasing after people who are similar to you can be very exciting.

But comparing yourself to a monster is just asking for trouble.

"No way, Jiayi, you're amazing too!"

Hearing Lü Jiayi say this, Chi Duoduo comforted her verbally, but couldn't suppress the smile on her lips.

Brother Yun is indeed the best!

..............................

"How is my brother? Is he in danger?"

Inside the medical room, Lin Youzhe watched as the medical staff covered Lin Youqi's body with various unknown medical devices and asked with concern.

"Don't worry, this athlete is just a little exhausted and blood loss, there's nothing else wrong with him."

The medical staff offered words of comfort.

"That's good."

Lin Youzhe breathed a sigh of relief.

If my younger brother gets into trouble, my father will probably give him a good talking-to when we get back.

dong dong dong~~~

Just then, a series of regular knocks sounded on the door.

"Enter!"

Relieved, Lin Youzhe looked at the door and saw that the person knocking was none other than Mu Yun, who had just been competing.

"Brother Mu?"

Lin Youzhe was taken aback when he saw Mu Yun, but he quickly guessed Mu Yun's purpose.

I guess they were worried and came to check on things.

In fact, it does.

After all, it was just a competition between the two. Out of concern, Mu Yun wanted to come and see Lin Youqi. In addition, he was also curious about Lin Youqi's abilities.

Of course, he wouldn't say it directly.

After all, it's not very polite to pry into someone else's abilities.

"Brother Lin?"

Upon seeing Lin Youzhe, Mu Yun was also taken aback.

But upon thinking of Lin Youqi's name, he immediately understood.

Lin Youzhe and Lin Youqi are clearly brothers.

"Brother Mu, don't worry, my brother is fine. He's just a little weak and blood loss. He'll be fine after a rest."

Lin Youzhe forced a smile.

Although his younger brother looked quite miserable, he didn't blame Mu Yun, after all, it was just a competition, not a life-or-death battle in the wild.

"That's good."

Mu Yun nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.

Having no grudge against each other, Mu Yun didn't want to ruin his opponent for no reason.

Moreover, Lin Youqi is quite shy when he's not fighting, and he seems like a good kid.

Shortly after, the medical staff who had finished the examination gave Lin Youqi an IV drip, prescribed a few bottles of nutritional supplements, and then hurriedly left.

The matches outside are still ongoing, and who knows if there will be any more injuries? Naturally, they need to be on standby at all times.

As soon as the medical staff left, Lin Youzhe chatted with Mu Yun.

Lin Youzhe mainly expressed his amazement that Mu Yun was actually a senior high school student, then talked about his younger brother's situation and briefly described the effects of Lin Youqi's talent.

This information is generally known to anyone with influence in Changqing Province, so there's no need to hide it.

After this battle, Lin Youzhe's desire for Beedrill intensified once again.

If even my own brother couldn't withstand a single blow, you can imagine how terrifying Beedrill's strength is!

His offspring will probably be just as strong!

I want it even more now!
