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

"Slowking is unable to battle. Please switch to another Pokémon!"

The referee's voice echoed in Sun Yao's ears.

She had no time to care.

At that moment, she felt a buzzing in her head.

Wait a minute, the plot shouldn't be like this!

Shouldn't it be that my Slowking charged up, unleashed its ultimate move, and then unexpectedly dealt a heavy blow to Pidgeot, followed by a decisive attack to defeat it, only to be defeated in the end when facing Muyun's second Pokémon?

Also, in the previous 30 matches, Pidgeot used charged-up Hurricane, so why did Slowking use Aerial Ace?

Could the other party be a prophet?

Sun Yao felt that this world was somewhat unfamiliar.

She clearly used divine power, so how could she still lose so decisively...?

Isn't she someone who is protected by the gods?

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

"Sigh, what a pity..."

In the special guest section, Sun Ning looked at her granddaughter's distraught expression and shook her head helplessly.

He had obviously figured out his granddaughter's tactics.

Unfortunately, the timing was terrible.

Through his observation of the recent battle, he had already noticed that Mu Yun's Pidgeot was getting faster and faster.

If Sun Yao had taken the stage herself in the first match instead of letting Lu Lu come, she might have won with the help of the dazed king's abilities.

But now, the climate for beaconing has become established.

Sun Yao was powerless to reverse the situation.

"This child thinks he can do anything just because he's become a Godsbane? How arrogant! He needs to go back and hone his skills!"

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

"Ahem, please change your Pokémon. Failure to do so within the time limit will be considered an automatic forfeit!"

On the field, the referee, seeing that Sun Yao had not made a move for a long time, reminded her again.

Upon hearing this, Sun Yao immediately snapped out of her daze and retrieved her trump card.

But without the dazed king, she had lost the confidence to defeat Mu Yun.

Sure enough, the Pokémon she sent out afterwards were all of lower level than Slowking; the highest level she sent was only a level 61 Swampert.

Despite its strength, it was no different from a giant punching bag in front of Namikaze.

[Ding! Pidgeot (60) defeated.../Swamp (61), Permanent Quest 1: Battle Completed. Detected opponent's level is.../equal to yours. Congratulations, host, you have gained points*.../61. Pidgeot's growth level has slightly increased!]

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

[Ding! The target has been detected as the objective of Short-Term Mission 18: National Pokémon High School Tournament. Congratulations, host, you have gained an additional 610 points and a minor boost to your growth level!]

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

"Swampert is unable to battle, and all six of the blue team's Pokémon are unable to battle. The winner is the red team's player—Muyun!!"

"A miracle! Mu Yun from Heijiang University has once again created a miracle in the Black Dragon Cup, defeating six opponents with a single Pokémon, a total of thirty-six Pokémon—an unprecedented and remarkable achievement!!"

As the referee announced the result, the host, beaming with pride, seemed to be present at the victory ceremony, raising the trophy high and shouting with fervor.

At the same time, the number of comments in the live stream also reached its peak.

"He did it! Mu Yun actually did it! He swept six opponents in a row, and it was even in the semifinals against Magic University! That's unbelievable!"

"I need to check the license plate. Is this Pidgeot on performance-enhancing drugs?!"

"Hey upstairs, what brand of performance-enhancing drug is so amazing? Let me know if you find it. I don't ask for much, just let me take on seven at once!"

"One against seven and you're asking for too little? Mu Yun only managed one against six!"

"I mean, is it possible that the person he's talking about taking on seven opponents at once is the trainer himself?"

"Wait, can someone explain to me what kind of combat power a trainer needs?"

"Where did this little brat come from? If you don't understand, go do your homework!"

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

"I lost..."

Inside the Magic University lounge, Sun Yao, who had been calm, now looked completely lost and dejected.

Those who know her know she lost the game; those who don't might think her boyfriend, Mei Hei, was discovered.

"Alright, Sister Yao, don't you always say that winning and losing are common occurrences in war? If you lose, you lose."

Lu Lu, who was initially feeling down, was immediately disheartened upon seeing Sun Yao's appearance. She got up, hugged Sun Yao's head, and comforted her.

"Yes, Captain, it's not your fault that we lost; the opponent was just too strong!"

"This Mu Yun is as strong as a monster; it's perfectly normal that we normal people can't beat him!"

That's how people are. Even if they're feeling really sad, when they see someone who's even sadder, they don't feel as sad anymore, and they might even have the energy to comfort them.

Sun Yao pursed her lips, wanting to say "You don't understand," but in the end she didn't say it, only letting out a long sigh.

Seeing Sun Yao's distressed expression, Lu Lu bit her lip and whispered in Sun Yao's ear, "Sister Yao, don't be too sad. At worst, I'll let you..."

"!!!"

Sun Yao's eyes lit up immediately.

"Lulu, you're so sweet!"

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

After the morning session ended, the afternoon session of the semifinals began.

That is, Tsinghua University versus Huadu University.

Huadu University is quite strong, but overall it's only slightly weaker than Shanghai University.

However, they were unable to withstand the offensive from Tsinghua University and ultimately stopped in the semifinals.

"Zhou Juefeng is really strong this week!"

Inside the lounge of Heijiang University, everyone was discussing the recent match between Tsinghua University and Huadu University.

There's not much to discuss about Huadu University, which has already been defeated. What they're mainly discussing is their next opponent—Shuimu University.

This is a long-standing and profound elf high school.

It has produced many famous trainers in the past.

Among them, the most famous is the current Alliance Leader - Zhou Jiuge!

He graduated from Tsinghua University.

In addition, Zhou Shijin, the second-ranked member of the Northern Region's Four Heavenly Kings, also graduated from Tsinghua University.

In terms of reputation and status, Tsinghua University is practically the top university in the Yanhuang Alliance.

In comparison, Imperial University is slightly inferior.

Of course, this slight inferiority is only compared to Tsinghua University.

After all, Zhu Ziyan, who had previously processed Mu Yun's application to join the patrol department, was a graduate of Imperial University.

As the deputy minister of the inspection department and one of the four kings of the northern region, Zhu Ziyan was quite famous.

Not to mention, many graduates of Imperial University of Beijing hold high positions after graduation.

Perhaps the most famous among them cannot compare to Zhou Jiuge, who is the chief, but their overall strength is by no means weak.

As for Zhou Juefeng, whom everyone just mentioned, he is the captain of Tsinghua University, the grandson of President Zhou Jiuge, and a rare trainer who specializes in Dragon-type trainers.
