Gible wants to be a trainer

Chapter 190 I still really want to win!

"One wrong step and the whole game is on the defensive. We've really been pushed to the edge of a cliff."

Ye Ci gazed at the blazing fire in the arena, feeling the intense heat emanating from it, and murmured a sigh.

Despite this, there was no sign of giving up in her bright eyes.

As the strongest in Padia, she could accept defeat, but she would never accept being overwhelmed in terms of even her morale.

Moreover, taking advantage of the brief respite from being forced back, General Servant's sword dance amplification was already fully stacked.

We haven't reached a truly hopeless situation yet.

"General of the Servant Blade, counterattack! Crush it!"

Ye Ci's voice suddenly rose in pitch.

"Buzz!"

A terrifying crimson glint flashed in the eyes of the Servant Blade General, completely ignoring the dark red flames scorching its body.

The once heavy steel armor was now red-hot from the intense heat, and even emitted a faint metallic groan.

But it was still like a beast unleashed from its cage, dragging its afterimage as it charged toward Diancie.

So what if I'm badly injured? So what if my body is melting?

As long as this broken body falls completely, we can cut off the enemy's head first.

In an instant, the heavy blade above General Pudao's head burst forth with a blinding black light.

Servant Blade! Use it again!

There are no fancy techniques, only slashes that compress extreme power and speed to the extreme.

"Breath in fire! Dodge!"

On the command platform, Lu Sha crossed his arms, his eyes fixed on the approaching black light.

With the help of his perception and mental connection with the young lady, he was able to give commands with almost no delay.

Despite the powerful strike that could split a mountain in two, Diancie remained completely calm.

She slightly raised her delicate chin and parted her small lips.

boom!!!

Like a volcano bursting its dam, a massive amount of raging flames erupted from her mouth.

In just a fraction of a second, the vast expanse of airspace in front of her was completely transformed into a boiling ocean of flames.

However, General Pudao did not hesitate for a moment when faced with this terrifying fire attack.

It shielded its body with its arms, bracing itself against the raging torrent of flames powerful enough to melt steel, and forcefully tore open a vacuum passage, like a demon from hell, and charged into within a meter of Diancie.

"Crush it! General Servant!"

Just as that heavy, black blade, carrying the pressure of death, was about to strike Diancie.

brush!

A streak of telekinetic light flashed by.

Diancie's petite figure was suddenly pulled by an invisible giant hand, and she slid backward in an elegant backward posture, skimming the ground.

Boom!

General Servant's deadly strike landed squarely on the spot where Diancie had been floating, the terrifying blade energy carving a deep trench more than ten meters long into the ground.

"Don't let her create distance, keep pursuing!" Ye Ci calmly and urgently gave the order.

General Servant pulled the blade from the ground and charged forward again with a roar.

In an instant, dark red flames raged wildly across the arena.

Two figures, one in black and one in red, engaged in an extremely dangerous tug-of-war on the arena.

However, no matter how swiftly General Pudao charged, even when the tip of his blade was less than half an inch from Diancie's skirt, it was as if there was an insurmountable chasm between them, and he could not cross it no matter what.

Cattleya's telekinetic acceleration was incredibly fast!

That absolute control made Diancie seem like an elf dancing on the edge of a knife, able to dodge with silky smoothness at the extreme distance every time.

As time went on, the flames that continued to attach to the source were relentlessly worsening General Servant's injuries.

As its injuries worsened and its stamina waned, its speed visibly decreased.

If this drags on any longer, it won't even be able to encounter Diancie; it will be burned alive first.

"Since we can't catch it..."

Ye Ci took a deep breath, her previously composed expression completely transforming into a desperate, frenzied one. She roared in a chilling voice, "General Pudao, forget about the target! Indiscriminate attack!!"

Since we can't reach the main body, let's bury the entire stage, along with our opponent.

Upon receiving this resolute order, General Pudao, who was charging forward, suddenly brought his massive body to a screeching halt in mid-air.

It raised its upper body high, and the heavy sword above its head, which was filled with all the Dark-type energy and the amplification of Sword Dance, slashed fiercely at the ground below, which was already riddled with holes!

"!"

In mid-air, Genji Heavenly King's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and the veins on his forehead were bulging. He didn't even care about the dignity of a Heavenly King and directly swore.

Seeing this scene, which was tantamount to self-destruction, he wondered if Cattleya could withstand it.

But he knew very well that he, as a security guard, was about to face a terrible disaster!

Buzz!

Rumble!!!

The ground on the battlefield completely collapsed!

With the point where the servant general struck as the origin, a nearly liquefied dark energy wave, like a super tsunami, poured wildly in all directions without any blind spots.

Huge chunks of rock were hurled dozens of meters into the air; everywhere you looked, both above and below, were shattered rocks and devastating aftershocks.

A champion-level Pokémon attacking without reservation and without discrimination is simply too much for the battlefield to handle.

"roar!"

Genji gritted his teeth and, together with the Flying Dragon beneath his feet, pushed the Dragon Domain to its limit.

The two, one human and one dragon, frantically wove together a massive protective net in mid-air to withstand the energy and debris that could have riddled the audience with holes.

Right in the eye of the storm, facing this devastating, all-encompassing attack, Cattleya didn't even flinch.

She simply gazed calmly ahead, her psychic power forming a tangible hemispherical canopy that firmly enveloped her, Lu Sha, and Diancie.

Despite the earth shaking and rocks flying everywhere, the violent black aftershocks crashed against the psychic barrier, only creating brilliant ripples, and could not penetrate it in the slightest.

In an instant, the purple super-powerful aura and the black evil energy intertwined and swirled wildly throughout the entire venue.

The ear-piercing sonic boom from the impact, and the aftershocks of stray bullets flying everywhere, sent the audience's adrenaline soaring and made their scalps tingle!

"He's so...so damn handsome!!!"

"Even the battlefield was shattered! This battle is terrifying! Is this really the Academy Cup?"

"I've seen the exhibition match between Genji and Bonnie, and it wasn't nearly as exaggerated or as brutal as this!"

"Nonsense! That's Gadrilia! Didn't you see how Steven and Wallace's ace Pokémon was knocked unconscious just from defending against the aftershocks? I saw it with my own eyes!"

"Not only is Cattleya a god, but the one on the other side is ridiculously strong too!"

"That's the strongest in our Padiya region, Chief Ci! Charge!"

"Both sides are so strong, whatever! Let's cheer them on! Cheer for both sides!!!"

'

Because Genji was on the edge, he desperately tried to block the deadly flying stones.

Even though the battlefield below had become a huge crater, the crowd in the stands showed no intention of running away.

On the contrary, it was the sense of impending destruction that drove them into complete madness.

Countless people shouted at the top of their lungs, enjoying this visual feast to the fullest.

As for those timid spectators, they had already run away with their barrels when the first wave of Groudon phantoms erupted. Those who remain in the arena are all genuine, hardcore battle fans.

The aftershocks, like raging waves, continued to reverberate within the shattered stadium, with black evil energy and purple super energy waves flying everywhere.

Just as the chaos reached its peak, Cattleya had to divert her telekinesis to dissolve the stray bullets that were about to hurtle towards the audience.

A sharp glint suddenly flashed in Ye Ci's eyes.

While directing Doronbaruto to help the audience deflect flying debris, she kept her eyes fixed on the purple hemispherical shield and decisively gave the final command: "Now! Full power from the Servant's Blade!"

Yeci is not the kind of pure trainer who is bound by formalities. As long as she can achieve her goal, she never hesitates to use any environmental factors that can be utilized.

In her calculations, Cattleya was currently in a state of perfect multitasking.

She had to protect Tianxi, protect Lu Sha beside her, and also take care of the safety of tens of thousands of audience members.

Under such extreme pressure, Gadria would certainly not have the spare strength to assist Diancie in moving and dodging!

"ha!"

Upon receiving the order, General Pudao let out a desperate roar, as if his life was over.

It forcibly squeezed out the last bit of strength from its body, transforming itself into a black lightning bolt that pierced through the flames, launching a suicidal charge towards Diancie, who was right in front of it.

Fast! Extremely fast!

At that moment, even the air itself seemed to be torn apart by the heavy, sharp blade, producing a piercing, explosive sound.

However, Ye Ci ultimately miscalculated one thing.

She had calculated Gadriya's burden accurately, but she hadn't calculated Gadriya's superhuman strength.

Faced with this desperate attack, Gadriya did not use her telekinesis to help Diancie dodge.

Because there's no longer any need for it.

At this moment, General Pudao had already stepped into the line of death.

hum!

Cattleya, who had been expressionless, suddenly had a blue glint in her emerald eyes.

Seeing this, Lu Sha's lips curled up slightly.

Dark-type Pokémon are immune to Psychic-type damage, but not to status conditions.

The next moment, the Servant General, who had been charging forward madly and was only half a meter away from Diancie, felt the world in front of him begin to twist wildly without warning.

It wasn't physical exhaustion, but rather a suppression of consciousness.

Hypnosis, effective!

thump!

Under the astonished gaze of the audience, General Servant's heavy, mountain-like steel body ultimately failed to swing that blade, and he collapsed heavily at Diancie's feet.

The blade overhead, powerful enough to cleave mountains, ultimately only weakly grazed Diancie's skirt, failing to leave even a scratch.

"In the end, it all came to naught."

Seeing this abrupt ending, Ye Ci slowly relaxed his clenched fist, a bitter smile appearing on his face.

The defeat was expected, but in countless moments during this battle, she genuinely believed that she had grasped a glimmer of hope.

Unfortunately, the reason the Great Demon King is called the Great Demon King is because she is always a little stronger than you can imagine.

Perhaps, in the world of trainers, she really doesn't have any so-called top talent, Ye Ci thought to herself with a self-deprecating smile.

Everything that happened in the blink of an eye left the people in the stands stunned for a full two seconds.

No one expected that General Pudao, who was just so powerful and about to turn the tables, would suddenly lose power and collapse the next second.

But soon, as the first audience members who understood the battle began to applaud, the entire venue was completely engulfed in applause and screams.

"Well done!!"

"Cadelia, I want to be your Growlithe!!"

"We won't talk about the handsome ones."

"Damn, I was so scared I almost peed my pants! This ticket was totally worth it!"

"The trainer was incredibly calm on the field, while I was sweating buckets watching from below."

'

Ye Ci stood quietly in the center of the devastated site, listening to the thunderous applause that reached her ears.

She could hear a lot of respect and comfort in those voices for her, a loser.

In the end, Ye Ci simply shook her head gracefully, and a smile returned to her lips.

It was a very peculiar experience, and one I hadn't had in a long time.

This feeling of my heart pounding and my blood boiling is something I've never experienced before.

I hope that in the future, I will have the opportunity to stand on such a stage again and give it my all as a trainer.

"You've done a great job, General Pudao. You've done even better than I expected."

Ye Ci gently sheathed the fallen general, then raised her head and gazed at the pair of girl and shark opposite her: "Miss Cattleya, I'm sorry. Today's match didn't allow you to fight to your heart's content."

"Click! (One year!)"

Faced with Ye Ci's regretful words of surrender, Lu Sha suddenly stretched out a shark claw, well, it was also his only one.

"What?" Ye Ci was slightly taken aback.

"Click! (Come to Sinnoh for the Garchomp Cup a year from now. Let's have another match then!)" Lu Sha shouted.

Today's game was incredibly frustrating.

Because their own young lady was countered by certain attributes, she had to play a support role throughout the entire match, and couldn't experience the thrill of dominating the game at all.

A year later, once he has fully matured, he will definitely show Ye Ci what true numerical aesthetics are all about.

"Okay! I've got this agreement in mind."

Ye Ci was initially taken aback, but then, as if relieved of some burden, he laughed heartily.

It seems that today's defeat wasn't as bad as she had imagined.

"General Servant is incapacitated. The victor is Cattleya of Zhuqing Academy!"

At the opportune moment, Genji, still in mid-air, interrupted, wiping the cold sweat from his brow as he pointed to the battlefield below, which had been almost completely leveled: "Does Orange Academy intend to continue the remaining matches?"

The current terrain is hardly a battlefield; it's riddled with bottomless pits and rubble, as if it had been hit by a meteor shower.

Forcing a battle is not an easy task for the Pokémon of an ordinary student.

Not to mention, they also have to fight Cattleya.

Ye Ci glanced back at her classmates.

Xinli and Bopi were alright, but their expressions were serious.

As for the remaining ordinary students, their eyes were darting around, and their legs were trembling slightly.

It was also clear to Cixin that the current situation made it impossible to continue fighting.

"Orange Academy surrenders!"

Ye Ci raised her right hand high, her voice clear and melodious.

There's no point in continuing the remaining matches.

As long as that girl is still standing there, no matter how many times it happens, Orange Academy will never see any hope of winning.

However, despite losing the match, the experience of fighting against an extremely strong opponent was more precious to her than any honor.

Previously, she had a utilitarian attitude towards Zhan Zong, and had never felt this special feeling before.

Before the competition started, she felt that she didn't care about winning or losing.

But when you actually stand under those lights, listening to the shouts of tens of thousands of people, and fighting alongside your comrades, you really, really want to win!

For any trainer, being able to fight against Cattleya is probably a memorable experience for a lifetime.

Oh well, never mind.

Ye Ci glanced at the timid students behind him and had already made up his mind.

Since they don't have the courage to cherish this opportunity, let's leave it at that.

"good!"

Genji Tenno let out a long sigh of relief and decisively announced the final result to the entire audience: "Due to Orange Academy's voluntary withdrawal, the final winner of this elimination round is..."

"Sinnoh, Congratulations Academy!"

"They will be the first team to confirm their advancement, officially advancing to the quarterfinals of the Academy Cup!"

The audience erupted in applause.

This applause is not only a congratulation to Zhuqing Academy, but also a tribute to Yeci and Orange Academy, thanking them for contributing this peak showdown that will be recorded in the history of the Academy Cup.
