I, Zhulan's childhood sweetheart, was trapped in Xicui.

Chapter 208: Battle against Mary, Gigantamax.

After learning about Xiao Hao's subsequent situation from Dan Di, Xu Li mourned for him for a second in his heart, then put it behind him and started the new day with a happy mood.

Vertical sun.

Xu Li is about to start his journey to gain points and bully the weak.

After yesterday's discussion with Zi Yu, he gradually understood the rules of the game.

Because to participate in the Pokémon Masters Championship, you must at least reach the second tier of advanced ball rank among the five ranks of the battle system to be eligible.

Unfortunately, Xu Li's rank...

It's novice level.

The battle score is 0.

To reach the advanced level, even if you win continuously, you have to defeat at least seventy or eighty people.

After all, he had never come into contact with this system, and even the battle code was registered just yesterday.

Fortunately, this battle system is very popular in the Galar region. As long as Xu Li is willing, he can always find opponents to score points, at least in the low ranks.

Otherwise, even if there was still enough time, facing this system without qualifying matches, Xu Li planned to use a backdoor and ask the league to at least help it to initially rank at the super ball level.

Yawning, Xu Li looked at the morning sunlight that was pouring down in shapes, and slowly walked to the Gongmen City Arena.

He also had a wristband with a modern and technological feel in his hand, turning it slightly and studying it.

This is the Gigantamax wristband, which Daigo had someone deliver to Xu Li's room this morning.

A device that absorbs the Galar Particles in the sky above the Galar region, allowing Pokémon to Gigantamax.

This can be considered as Daigo's "reciprocity".

He also specifically noted that the large piece of moonstone that Xu Li had given him at Yuejianshan had made his father, President Zifuchi, who was also a "mineral fan", quite jealous.

This makes Daigo very happy!

So Daigo didn't use the newly acquired Dynamax Band himself, and asked someone to give it to Xu Li.

Thinking of Dawu's expression, Xu Li shook his head helplessly.

The Moon Stone that I gave as a gift is not worth as much as this giant wristband... Although for Daigo, the collection value of the Moon Stone may be more important to him.

When I have time, I'll take Daigo to Pipi Planet. He can pick any Moon Stone there as long as he has the ability to bring it back.

"Sir, are you sure you want to play? We'll match you up now!" Seeing Xu Li in a daze, the receptionist at the Palace Gate Arena said to Xu Li with a smile.

"Yes." Xu Li nodded.

……

Gongmen Arena is the secondary battle venue.

The rules for novice-level battles are very simple, just one-on-one battles.

Xu Li’s first opponent was a very common middle-aged man, wearing a suit, carrying a briefcase, looking like an office worker.

And the dark circles under his eyes are exactly the same as Aoki's.

We're so tired, are we still going to fight?! Xu Li was deeply puzzled, unable to understand the mentality of the Galarians.

After a brief handshake with the other party, Xu Li also threw out the Poké Ball, and a somewhat dazed Colt Sword Soldier appeared on the field.

The opponent sent out the Hairyhorn Sheep.

The whole thing looks like a wool-producing sheep, with thick wool surrounding it, making its body look fat.

Don't look at it as ordinary, if you look closely, you will find that it is of high quality.

"Sacrifice yourself and charge!" The opponent launched an attack directly.

The Hairy Horned Sheep lowered its head and aimed its long horns at the Colt Saber Soldier. It was very fast and rushed to the Soldier in a moment!

But the Colt Sword Soldier just stared as the Hairy Horned Sheep came towards it, with a faint flash of iron wall on its body.

The hairy-horned sheep hit the body of the colt-sword soldier heavily, and there was a loud "bang" sound!

Facing the Hairy Horned Sheep, the Colt Sword Soldier's body was quite small, but even with this violent collision, its iron body only retreated slightly, while the Hairy Horned Sheep was almost dizzy from the rebound of its iron body!

Then...

The soldier with the colt sword raised the toy-like sharp blade in his hand and suddenly smashed it towards the gap between the two horns of the hairy horn sheep!

Split tiles!

boom!

There was another loud and crisp sound, and the Shaggy Horned Sheep fainted.

"The Hairyhorn has lost its ability to fight, and contestant Xu Li wins!" Referee Rotom dutifully shouted out the battle situation.

The game ended unpretentiously.

The opponent's eyes suddenly widened, and he looked a little bit unbelievable: "It's just a baby Pokémon, just like that..."

As if he didn't hear what was said to him, the soldier with the horse sword put away his sword and saluted, then turned around and walked back towards Xu Li step by step, like a soldier who had simply carried out an order.

Walk slowly.

The light of evolution spread from it, and its body slowly grew under the cover of white.

In a short while, he had changed from his original mini height of half a meter to a normal human figure that was only slightly shorter than Xu Li.

The steel on his body gleamed silver, like a Japanese samurai made of steel, and his body was covered with sharp blades, making him look quite aggressive.

"Grown up." Xu Li said with a smile.

"Clang..." Commander Chop lowered his head slightly and turned it slightly, showing Xu Li the only part of his body without a sharp blade.

Xu Li touched it cautiously and tentatively, only to find it cold and smooth.

But he didn't care, this was a passion unique to him, the Slashing Commander.

……

For the next dozen or so battles, Xu Li let the newly evolved Slash Commander familiarize himself with his body.

Although the novice-level opponents were also quite powerful, Commander Slash was cheating - he had inherited the buffs from Xu Li from countless missions to defeat the "evil organization".

When facing these novice-level opponents, he almost killed them one by one with one strike, and was extremely efficient.

In order to be safe and prevent Commander Cleave from suffering more damage, Xu Li even equipped Commander Cleave with an evolution stone.

Now, its whole body is so hard... Xu Li even feels a little shameless.

Xu Li's points also successfully reached the middle level of the Poké Ball level.

Nearing noon, Xu Li planned to play one more game to end today's journey of bullying, but he didn't expect that the person walking to the opposite side was a familiar face.

Of course, the other party should not know me.

Over the pink dress, she wore a black jacket with spikes that resembled a will-o'-the-wisp girl. In her arms, she held a three-colored mouse that looked like a potato, with long white legs showing underneath. Her face was expressionless under her half-haired bangs, but she was still cute.

Mary.

The princess of Spike Town.

After Mary came on the court, the originally sparsely populated spectator seats were suddenly flooded with a large number of men and women who looked like ghost-like gangsters, and noisy voices continued to ring out.

"Mary! Mary! Mary! We will win!"

"This is Mary's first competition representing our Spike Town! Friends! Cheer up! Let Mary feel our passion and strength!"

The men were holding several trumpet-like instruments and continuously blasting out noisy music. Although the sound they produced was not as terrifying as the Howling Tail's singing, it was still in high spirits. The women even pulled up a banner covering Mary's entire body.

Xu Li: “…”

very noisy!

No, is it really necessary to have such a large-scale support for a battle of just one Poké Ball rank?!

Seeing Xu Li's strange expression, and then glancing at the cheering team on the stage, Mary's face showed a hint of embarrassment. After hesitating for a moment, she said to Xu Li, "I'm sorry...they..."

Mary opened her mouth, but didn't know how to describe this group of overly enthusiastic cheering team. Her face turned red and she could only keep apologizing.

"I'll scold them after the game!...Really." She blushed.

Xu Li sighed: "Let's end this as soon as possible."

Mary nodded seriously: "Although I'm very sorry, I won't let you go..."

The battle rules of the Poké Ball segment have changed to a two-on-two singles battle.

Mary threw the Poké Ball, and a hairy troll appeared on the field, staring at Xu Li's Slash Commander with its slightly ugly face.

"That's it~!"

"Hairy troll, muscular!" Mary chose to strengthen.

"Iron Head." Xu Li said softly.

While the hairy troll was still in a bodybuilding pose, Commander Slash quickly jumped from the ground, and his hard steel body smashed against the ground with a bang, and quickly descended in front of the hairy troll.

He lowered his head, shone the giant axe that exuded a deadly threat on his head, and suddenly slammed into the long-haired troll who had hurriedly completed his bodybuilding!

Bang!

The hairy troll flew out immediately!

The effect was outstanding. The long-haired troll, who repeatedly rolled to the ground, immediately covered his chest in extreme pain, with a mask of pain on his face. Even though his body's defense had been strengthened after bodybuilding, the long-haired troll was still unable to move for a while due to the pain.

"Hairy troll!" Mary was stunned.

Is this an opponent of my Poké Ball level?!

Originally thinking it was a matter of Poké Ball rank, she was so obsessed with the pursuit of victory that she sent out one of her trump cards, the Longhaired Troll, to play it safe, and even specifically chose a strengthened start.

Unexpectedly, the greedy strengthening at the beginning actually gave the opponent an opportunity...

Mary had a confused look on her face as she listened to the cheers of the cheering team and their boos for Xu Li.

Although they were annoyed by the Shouting Team's random use of noise to interfere with their opponents, they came all the way from Spike Town to Gongmen City to support her and cheer her on. She absolutely could not lose the first battle!

Thinking about the situation on the field, Mary gritted her teeth and decisively showed the wristband on her wrist.

"Hairy Troll!" she suddenly shouted, "Gigantamax!"

She collected the hairy troll with a Poké Ball, and then the Poké Ball in her hand grew larger step by step, until it was so big that she could hardly hold it in her hands, and she threw it out!

"That's it~~!"

A huge, pitch-black, long-haired troll suddenly appeared on the scene. Xu Li looked at it and it looked like a Gundam. It had to be said that although the long-haired troll looked ugly, after it was Gigantamaxed, it really looked like one.

"Maximum Fist Fight!" Mary shouted, accurately choosing a fighting-type maximum move that had four times the resistance against the Slash Commander.

The giant long-haired troll roared, and its huge black fist suddenly smashed down.

In this comparison, Xu Li's Slashing Commander was like a Guangdong cockroach under the feet of a giant.

"Iron Head!" Xu Li frowned slightly.

I didn't expect the opponent to be so weak and use Gigantamax with only one Poké Ball level.

The giant long-haired troll's fist suddenly smashed down, hitting the commander on the head who was unable to dodge in time!

Bang!

A deep pit appeared on the field, and Commander Slash fell into it.

A sound of pain that Commander Chop could no longer bear was heard from inside. Thanks to the enhancement of the Evolution Stone, it did not lose its combat capability for a moment.

When the Max Fist hit, a hole was poked in the hairy troll's fist by the commander's axe on the head. The pain made it even more excited!

He roared again, wanting to raise his fist and smash it down again!

Xu Li's mind was constantly working, thinking about how to break the opponent's Gigantamax.

Unfortunately, Commander Slash's skill pool consists of straightforward attack skills... and there's no way to solve the problem on the field without paying any price.

Watching the opponent's huge fist about to hit again.

Xu Li could only decisively shout: "Metal explosion!"

Commander Slash narrowed his eyes slightly under his steel helmet, and immediately followed Xu Li's command. A silver light suddenly appeared on his body, and he faced the fist of the super giant long-haired troll without any resistance.

He even pulled off the evolution stone that Xu Li had hung on his chest and gently threw it aside.
