With the perfect combination of absolute defense and reflective mirrors, Xiao Tie's victory was no surprise.

If the opponent doesn't attack, it will only be killed by the small iron.

If the opponent attacks, you might be defeated by the counterattack.

It can be said that unless the base stats exceed those of Tetsuya and the Tetsuya can also break through the Tetsuya's defenses, there is only one possibility: defeat.

"Well then, let's congratulate Mu Yun on achieving the remarkable feat of defeating three opponents in a single battle for the first time on the stage of the National Pokémon High School Tournament!!"

Amidst the impassioned words of the male commentator Liu Liu, Mu Yun gracefully withdrew and returned to the lounge.

Perhaps because Xiao Tie's fighting style was simple and unpretentious, lacking the visual impact of Da Dan's, the students from Hei Jiang University were not as excited as they were yesterday.

But they were still very excited about Mu Yun's easy feat of defeating three opponents single-handedly.

One against three, or even one against three, taking down seven elves.

Looking at the entire Black Dragon Cup, that's an extremely rare occurrence.

Those who can do this are all top geniuses among the "Top Five".

Those who achieve the least in the future will all be titled kings.

Even for the top ten students, making it into the top three of the Elite Four certification tournament and becoming a formal Elite Four-level trainer is a huge hurdle, let alone the title-level Elite Four.

For many people, being able to stand on the stage of the White Dragon Cup (King of Kings Tournament) is a great honor.

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

Compared to the lively atmosphere at Heijiang University, the students at Pinghu University seemed much more downcast.

Falling in the second round and stopping at the top 32 is a disgraceful result for Pinghu University, one of the top ten universities.

Fortunately, the opponent we lost to was Heijiang University, which is also among the top ten universities. They also have a strong dark horse. It would have been truly shameful to lose to a university outside the top ten.

"Holy crap, Captain! Look! Southwest University lost too!!"

One of the players on the Pinghu University team suddenly exclaimed in surprise while holding his phone.

The others immediately gathered around.

Southwest University, one of the top ten in the Yanhuang Alliance, is famous for its Bug, Poison, and Grass-type Pokémon.

Although it is jokingly referred to as one of the "lower ten" universities, like Pinghu University and Heijiang University, as a top university in Southwest China, its foundation and strength are quite formidable.

In contrast, Pinghu University, located in the eastern region, doesn't have a particularly top-tier student body because of the presence of Shanghai University.

"Southwest University of Insects pulled off a stunning upset, defeating Southwest University? Good grief, they were eliminated by their own team?"

"Southwest University of Insects? That newly promoted top-tier university in recent years?"

"It seems to be a high school specializing in Bug-type Pokémon, and I've heard it has strong research capabilities, especially in the study of Bug-type Pokémon."

"I checked, and a few years ago this school issued an announcement saying that a new special secret realm had been discovered, which claimed to contain Bug-type Pokémon comparable to pseudo-legendary Pokémon."

"Bug-type Pokémon are comparable to pseudo-legendary Pokémon? Really?"

"I don't know, we'll find out when we get back and watch the video."

"It doesn't matter anymore, our competition is over anyway, so even if a Bug-type legendary Pokémon appears, it won't affect us."

"That's true..."

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

"A pseudo-legendary Bug-type?"

Inside the hotel, in the conference room of the Black Group.

Mu Yun looked at the intelligence report in front of him with some surprise.

There were printed photos and videos stored on a laptop; these were all compiled by the teacher in charge of intelligence.

At this moment, the photo clearly shows a humanoid elf with black and red skin, extremely developed muscles, and a face that looks very much like a mosquito.

The teacher in charge of intelligence did not recognize the spirit, or rather, only knew its name, but knew nothing else about it.

But Mu Yun recognized him at a glance.

This is not Buzzwole, one of the Ultra Beasts!

Ultra Beasts are special Pokémon that appeared in the seventh generation of the games in the previous game.

It is a special Pokémon that appears in the Alola region, originating from a place called Ultra Hole.

Furthermore, all Ultra Beasts, regardless of their attributes or race, share only one characteristic: Beast Boost.

A trait similar to overconfidence allows one to boost their highest-level ability after defeating an opponent.

In addition, the most powerful aspect of Ultra Beasts is their extremely high base stats.

With the exception of a very few Ultra Beasts, the base stats of the rest are all around 570.

The mosquito in the photo, for example, has a base stat total of 570, and its base stat distribution is also excellent.

With a physical attack and physical defense of 139 points and 107 stamina, it's definitely a tanky warrior.

Among Bug-type Pokémon, it truly rivals pseudo-legendary Pokémon.

"This Bug-type Pokémon, known as Buzzwole, is very strong and is likely the trump card of Southwest Insect University. If it weren't for encountering Southwest University, it probably wouldn't have been used."

The intelligence officer analyzed.

Mu Yun nodded, indicating that he understood.

Although Southwest University is one of the top ten universities, it is not invincible.

Its three most effective attributes—insect, poison, and grass—are precisely what the burrowing mosquito can resist.

In addition, most Bug/Poison/Grass-type Pokémon have relatively low base stats. When facing a Pokémon with Beast Boost, a single defeat could easily lead to a team wipe.

The facts were just as Mu Yun had predicted.

In the video, a young man with dark reddish skin appears last. Upon entering the scene, he commands Buzzwole to defeat the opponent's exhausted Pokémon.

Then, with the help of the beast's enhancement and the combination of moves such as Bodybuilding and Enhancement Punch, the harvest was easily completed.

"An ultimate monster..."

After returning to his room, Mu Yun recalled the several ultimate monsters in his mind.

In the previous game's encyclopedia, there were a total of ten Ultra Beasts.

Apart from the Najacanchus, which has relatively low base stats, the other nine all possess considerable strength.

Examples include the incredibly strong Vulpix, the extremely high Special Attack Electric-type Woodpecker, the well-rounded Celestial Elise with its balanced stats, and the Pheromosa with its exceptional Attack, Attack, and Speed.

But among them, Mu Yun's favorites are the flesh-piercing Bursting Mosquito and the Grass/Steel dual-type Paper Sword.

"I'd like to visit West Kunshan University sometime..."
