Xia Chen didn't know that his appearance had been captured by the fans. At this moment, he was focusing on the battle on the court.
Although according to the information provided by the school's powerful database, the player named Gu Minghao, the strongest elf flame chicken, is only a senior player.
But the second trainer's spirit that Sirona taught Xia Chen, self-humility, also made him never look down on any opponent.
So, he went all out and sent his right-hand man, Menas.
Xia Chen indeed gave his opponent the greatest respect, but he never thought that his opponent actually didn't want this kind of respect at all.
In the studio.
Watching both sides throw Poké Balls, the male commentator started rapping.
"The game officially started. You can see that the starting elves of both sides are Flame Chicken and Menas. The former is the ace elf of player Gu Minghao. Player Xia Chen may have anticipated this and chose the more restrained Menas, so that We'll see what both sides do for us."
Before the words "What a wonderful performance" were uttered, the male commentator, who spoke very quickly, was surprised to find that on the battlefield, the Flame Chicken, which was full of vitality just now and was burning like a flame, was now lying down. On the ground.
What is flowing on the ground is a stream of water that appears at an unknown time.
Only ten seconds into the game, before Gu Minghao's ace Elf Flame Chicken had time to start accelerating, it was already unleashed by Menas with an astonishingly fast water cannon, killing him instantly with one blow!
To be honest, throughout the morning, I watched a lot of male commentators competing with each other in terms of strength, but it was the first time that the fight ended before I even finished my opening remarks.
The speed with which Menas attacks is really scary.
The excellent professionalism surprised him and sighed, and then he turned his attention back to the competition itself.
At this time, player Gu Minghao, who had not recovered yet, had already withdrawn the flame chicken at the urging of the referee and replaced it with the iron palm warrior.
Now he also wants to understand that he can't win if he wins, and it will be difficult to change one, and there is a high probability that Menas will penetrate him three times.
Perhaps the only way to save face is to face the difficulties and lose with dignity.
So, Gu Minghao bravely let the Iron Palm Warrior go up to A, and then hit GG.
…………
From the opening whistle to the closing whistle, the interval between the two whistles was only two minutes.
This means that Xia Chen, who was ruthless, solved this 3v3 battle in just two minutes.
There was even one minute in which the tough-skinned Iron Palm warrior, who was not restrained by the water system, could resist. That minute was the only confrontation in the whole game that could barely be called a back-and-forth.
Not to mention the last platypus.
Not even a water cannon, just a ranged surf move that didn't leave any chance for the opponent, and Salamon fell suddenly.
For the first time, the male commentator had just finished explaining the idea of not drinking water. He smacked his tongue slightly and sipped his saliva habitually. He concluded the game.
"Then, at the end of the whole game, player Xia Chen relied on the excellent performance of Menas to win the game with an absolute advantage. It took one minute and forty-nine seconds. According to the current statistics, this was also the victory of this competition. The shortest game so far.”
"Contestant Xia Chen told us with his strength that not only in the field of elf research, but also in elf battles, he is also the best one. How far can this youngest contestant in the history of the competition go in this youth competition? Let’s wait and see which step it takes!”
With that, the battle ends.
Xia Chen stepped down and the contestants for the next game appeared.
Barrage was still immersed in the game just now.
The two-minute battle could not be called exciting no matter how you say it, so there was naturally nothing to remember. The center of the discussion among the audience was still Xia Chen.
"I thought Master Pigeon was very strong, but what I didn't expect was that Master Pigeon could be so strong!"
"I thought Bu Shen was already invincible. Whose general is this?"
"Meenas feels like he has changed a lot. Have you noticed that he is much more beautiful? His scales, some details on his body, and his temperament are just like a walking advertisement for beautiful energy cubes!"
"Senbu and Gardevoir were not allowed to appear, and they were dismissed immediately!"
"Calm down, it doesn't make any difference whether you can disable it or not. Master Pigeon may have forgotten all the secrets of his P station account."
"As we all know, Sirona also has a Menas. Master Pigeon and Menas are so strong, it really makes people imagine."
"Strength is spread through X?"
…………
Xia Chen didn't know how the barrage was structuring him. After the game, he found Teacher Lin Quan and followed her outside the arena, preparing to go back.
He was the last to compete among the ten people from Beijing University. The other nine people who had already won the game were already on the minibus outside, waiting for Xia Chen to return to Funan University.
"There is an elf center in the arena. Do you want to treat Menas before leaving?"
Walking on the road, Teacher Lin Quan asked with concern.
Xia Chen rejected her kindness, "It's not like you didn't watch the game. You just suffered two close combats from the Iron Palm Warriors. Menas might have recovered by now."
Lin Quan: "."
Two close combats, is that the only way to describe it?
But Xia Chen said no, so she couldn't say anything else.
Passing through the battle arena where the competition was still taking place, the two walked straight towards the outside of the Flowing Fire Arena.
While passing by a venue, Lin Quan suddenly heard a soft whine coming from beside him.
"Teacher Lin, are people from other regions allowed to participate in the Donghuang Young Trainer Competition?"
Xia Chen's question was a bit strange. Lin Quan thought for a while and then replied: "There does not seem to be such a restriction in the rules of the competition, but those who can participate in the youth competition are selected by major universities, or are recommended by gyms or qualified dojos. Yes, so there shouldn’t be people from other regions participating, right? Or are they international students?”
"is that so."
Xia Chen lowered his head, looking thoughtful.
Lin Quan was curious about why Xia Chen asked this question. She looked along where Xia Chen was looking just now, and saw that the game on the battlefield had just ended.
A Pikachu jumped briskly from the geranium that fell to the ground, and jumped onto the shoulders of a boy wearing a red and white training uniform and a red baseball cap.
Lin Quan was slightly surprised, Pikachu is here?
Can he still defeat the three grass-type geraniums against his attributes?
Is the person from other areas that Xia Chen just asked about this young man with an extraordinary temperament and a confident smile on his face?
Lin Quan stood there in a daze, but Xia Chen retracted his thoughts and moved forward first.
"Let's go, Teacher Lin, they are still waiting outside."
"okay."
…………
Xia Chen didn't expect to see Chihong again so soon.
In fact, speaking quickly, time is not short. It has been more than a year since they last met in the Bogaman Cup.
But compared to the "three-year agreement" the two had promised, the speed of meeting again was quite fast.
Recalling the scene when they parted last time, Xia Chen remembered that Chi Hong seemed to have said that he would travel westward along the Yangtze River and challenge the gym.
Have you traveled to Funan in one year?
Then he should have won all the Yunze Gym, Shining Gym, and Qingkong Gym along the way, right?
It was obvious that he was just like me a year ago, a rookie trainer, and in the blink of an eye he had almost half of his badges.
Wow, this growth rate is really crazy.
Xia Chen, who has a group of wall-hanging elves, commented on a wall-hanging.
No, if you add Pi Shen, that's two wall hangings.
But strength is strength. This guy has been traveling. How did he get a place in this competition?
The international students that Teacher Lin was talking about? But isn't he traveling all the time?
Xia Chen was a little surprised, but Ye was not in a hurry now.
Anyway, with the strength of him and Chihong, they will definitely meet in the main game. Let's ask this question face to face then.
…
At the end of the first day of competition, all ten people from Beijing University were victorious.
Although it looked shocking, it was actually not a big deal to them. Teacher Lin Quan did not organize a celebration banquet or anything like that.
It’s business to go back and have a good rest to prepare for the next day’s game.
The next day, the competition continued in full swing at the Flowing Fire Arena.
The winner's group match was in the morning, so early in the morning, Lin Quan took Xia Chen and the others to the arena.
After entering the winner group, if everything goes well, you can win two more rounds and enter the top 48 in the winner group to enter the main draw.
The remaining sixteen spots will naturally be divided among the losers group.
Although it seems a bit unfair, this is both a reward for the winner and a punishment for the loser.
In fact, the qualifiers adopt a double-elimination elimination system, which can be regarded as providing a higher fault tolerance rate for all participants.
As the saying goes, people are not good enough to blame the uneven road. If you still can't make it to the main draw in this competition system, it is purely a matter of strength.
…………
In the second day's game, Xia Chen still won easily.
Yesterday was the performance of Menas, today is the one-wear-three show of Senbu.
Being accustomed to the high-intensity competition at Beijing University, Xia Chen found it quite relaxing to play in competitions across Donghuang.
This situation is quite similar to the situation where the national table tennis team was relatively out of the circle in the previous life.
"After winning the World Championships and returning to compete in China, I found that winning the National Games championship was much more difficult."
However, Xia Chen also knew that this was an illusion caused by the mixed nature of the qualifiers and the large number of contestants.
If we really encounter a "second generation" like Long Yue, it will inevitably be a fierce battle.
What a coincidence, among the top ten people, there was an unlucky guy who met such an opponent today.
That person was from the western region of Donghuang, known as Litang City, the highest city in the world, and the "Second Generation" of the Ice Attribute Gym, Ice Zhen Gym.
The main elves are Ice Nine Tails, Bodhidharma Baboon and Tundra Bear.
A relatively rare snow team.
It is worth mentioning that the intensity of the snow team in this world is higher than that in Xia Chen's previous game.
The effect of the snowy weather here is no longer to cause hail to cause slight continuous damage to non-ice elves, but to increase the physical defense of ice elves by about half.
Coupled with the [Snowfall] attribute, the Ice Nine Tails erected an [Aurora Curtain] that was a combination of light wall and reflective wall. The ice elf with many weaknesses turned out to be surprisingly fleshy.
Like many weather players, Ice Nine Tails was replaced after playing Snow and Aurora.
She handed over the stage to the main damage dealer of this snow team, the ice-type thug elf, the Bodhidharma baboon in the form of the Galar region.
An icicle struck down, and the opponent's thick-skinned Bulbasaur almost fell off.
It can be seen that the attack power of this Bodhidharma baboon is very high.
In the end, Kang Wenxi, ranked fifth in the school, lost to Wang Ding, the successor of Bingzhen Gym, 1:3, and unfortunately fell into the loser group.
In addition, everyone else in Shangda, as well as Chihong, who was secretly observed by Xia Chen, all advanced to the next round smoothly.
…………
The third and fourth days are also the two most critical days of the qualifiers.
In these two days, the remaining ninety-six people in the winner group will fight against each other one by one, and the winner can directly enter the main match.
The loser can only fall into the loser group and compete with the players who have not yet been eliminated for the last sixteen places.
Because of the key point, this round of 48 games will be divided into two days, with the two major groups playing at the same time.
Xia Chen was placed in Group B, a group that neither Chihong nor Hu Yang was in.
It's good news at best. After all, it's better to do less than to do more.
If he really faced them, it would be possible to win if all his cards were used, but the schedule was still long, and Xia Chen would definitely not be willing to do such a loss.
After the lottery ceremony, Xia Chen learned the information about his opponent.
Jiang Pei, 20 years old, is a core apprentice of Huangsha Dojo and a proficient trainer in the ground and rock department. (Book friends in the comment area provide supporting roles, which will be slightly modified according to the plot line-up)
To be precise, he is a master trainer of Team Sandstorm.
Good news, he's not a gym inheritor.
Bad news, he is stronger than the average gym inheritor.
The so-called dojo is not like a dojo, which requires the official approval of the alliance to be constructed and operated. The purpose is to test the official organization to test the strength of trainers.
Simply put, a dojo is a place opened by a very famous master or a large family for trainers to practice and learn the Tao.
It can be understood as a more targeted private school with better teachers.
The most famous one is naturally the gym opened by Ma Shide, who is located on the Isle of Armor in the Galar region and has won the Elf League championship for eighteen consecutive years and is known as the "Living Legend".
It was also there that outstanding talents like Emperor Dan were born.
Of course, the Huangsha Gym where Jiang Pei is located is definitely not as good as Ma Shide's.
But it is also a famous existence in the northwest of Donghuang.
Huangsha Dojo has a long history, and it is said that it has more than a thousand years of heritage. It has trained many people such as gym leaders and even the Four Heavenly Kings.
For example, the current master of the dojo, Tao Gongye, is the Sandstorm King who came out of the Huangsha Dojo.
But that was more than twenty years ago, and as he was nearly seventy years old, he had long since returned to the Huangsha Dojo to cultivate the next generation of trainers for the place where his story began.
The inheritance of the Taoist temple is endless.
This is the soul of Huangsha Taoist Temple that can last for thousands of years.
Jiang Pei is the leader of the younger generation in Huangsha Dojo.
…………
"Hippo Beast, Dragon-headed Gopher, Hu Di, Sandstorm Team, it's difficult to deal with. Fortunately, his Shakiras hasn't evolved into Laoban, otherwise he wouldn't be able to withstand them at all."
Xia Chen, who was sitting in the contestants area preparing for the match, sighed silently as he watched the information sent by Teacher Lin Quan to his opponent.
After evading Populus euphratica and Chihong, they finally encountered a tough opponent.
I have to say that Xia Chen's luck in drawing lots has always been quite bad.
This opponent, who was a solid base for the top eight, was chosen by him in the qualifiers.
But since I got it, I can only fight hard. If I fall into the loser group, I don’t know what monsters and monsters I will encounter.
Xia Chen, who wanted to avoid trouble and accidents, decided to go all out in this game.
The game is the sixth game of Group B. If nothing else, it will be our turn this morning.
So Xia Chen didn't have much time to think about tactics and countermeasures.
The opponent is a standard Sandstorm team.
The Sandstorm Team, as its name suggests, is a team that uses sandstorm weather as its main tactical strategy throughout the game.
To be fair, Sandstorm team Xia Chen played a lot, but that was in the game.
There is still a big difference between games and reality.
When he came to this world, he only encountered him twice during the school rankings. He was still a half-resembling prototype of the Sandstorm Team, and his strength was definitely not as good as that of the Huangsha Dojo apprentices who started out with Sandstorm tactics.
This can be seen from Jiang Pei’s professional lineup.
Hippopotamus must be a weather player with the [Sand Blowing] characteristic. Before Shakiras evolves, it will most likely be the first choice, responsible for creating sandstorms.
Then depending on the situation, release the invisible rock, or use Yawn to control, or blow away to play tactics. If the situation allows, it will also output.
Dragon-Headed Gopher, nicknamed Rat-Headed Gopher, is the core thug of the Sandstorm Team. His attack power is terrifying.
According to the data, Jiang Pei's dragon-headed gopher has the characteristic [Sand Splash]. The effect is that during sandstorms, the speed of the elves can be greatly increased.
Such a dragon-headed gopher is not only a warrior who can resist and fight, but also an assassin who comes and goes without a trace.
Hu Di, the blind mending player in the team, has the attribute [Magic Protection].
Therefore, although Hu Di's attributes are not one of the ground, rock, or steel types, he is still immune to the damage caused by sandstorms.
The lineup is complete and the characteristics are professional.
There is no doubt that Jiang Pei must be a difficult opponent.
…………
"Meenas, I'm going to leave this to you."
Xia Chen entrusted his general with important tasks.
"Your moves are released faster, so it's more suitable to catch the weather than Fairy Cloth."
Menas also knew the difficulty and importance of this game, and nodded solemnly, "Fuwu!"
No matter what kind of weather team you play, controlling the weather is naturally the top priority.
Xia Chen's lineup does not depend on the weather, but he wants to disgust his opponents.
Therefore, Menas, who has a high level of practice in Qiuyu, can release his moves quickly, and can restrain two ground-type elves, is the core of this game.
In addition to Menas, the other core output point in this game is Gardevoir.
Without him, Team Sandstorm is particularly good at moves like Earthquake, which have a huge range and are almost impossible to dodge.
Gardevoir is currently the only one among Xia Chen's main elves who can fly briefly through superpowers.
As for Xianbu Xiachen's explanation to her, he only had four words to adapt to circumstances.
After discussing the countermeasures, Xia Chen and the elves watched the short video attached at the end of the information.
That was a clip of Jiang Pei's game that was temporarily compiled by the intelligence team formed by Beijing University for Xia Chen and the others. It was of great reference value.
Know yourself and your enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger.
Information gap is also one of the reasonable advantages that can be exploited in battle.
Thinking about the opponent's command habits and elf characteristics, time passed by minute by second.
Soon, at 10:30 in the morning, the fifth battle ended.
The next match is between Xia Chen and Jiang Pei.
The competition is also divided into seed players and weak players.
Like Xia Chen and Jiang Pei, one is the second seed in the Beijing University selection competition, and the other is the new generation leader of the prestigious Huangsha Dojo.
This game has naturally become the focus of this round.
Even before the fifth game ended, Station P had already changed the title of the live broadcast room of Group B of the competition.
[Genius elf researcher VS future sandstorm king, who will get the promotion spot? ]
Hmm. The title has a strong two-dimensional flavor.
However, P station originally started from the second dimension, so it is not a violation, as long as the gimmick comes out.
At this time, a large group of pigeons came to the live broadcast room after hearing the news.
…………
"Wuhu, I heard that the pigeon master will have a competition soon. Although it's only half past ten, I've already ordered the takeaways. Let's start the meal!"
"Ask me every day, can I see Gardevoir today?"
"It's most likely possible. The opponent in this match is not at the same level as the one in the first two rounds. He may not be able to win even if he takes on Gardevoir."
"It's best if you don't win. I hope the pigeon master falls into the loser's bracket so that he can play several more rounds. I love watching it!"
"It's open! The game has begun!"
During the barrage chat, the battlefield has been simply arranged.
Xia Chen and Jiang Pei also stepped onto the battlefield one after another.
Jiang Pei is a tall and handsome boy with fair skin.
Just looking at his appearance, there is no way to connect him with the rough guys in the Sandstorm Team.
However, Xia Chen was never a person who judged people by their appearance. It didn't matter what the elf's strength was or what his trainer was.
Just like Xia Chen himself, being so handsome, does it influence Xianbu and the others?
Xia Chen was observing Jiang Pei's efforts, and the other party was also observing Xia Chen.
Huangsha Dojo is not as large as Beijing University, and its intelligence work is far inferior to the team behind Xia Chen.
What he knew about Xia Chen, apart from major events such as the discovery of the fairy cloth and the mythical beast incident, was that he knew very little about the field of elf battles.
Because the Shangjing University selection competition prohibited video recording in order to protect the confidentiality of the players' strength, after Jiang Pei found out that his opponent was Xia Chen, he hurriedly searched for information on the Internet and could only find older battle videos.
At that time, Senbu was still Eevee
There are videos of the games from the previous two days, but the pure crushing games have no reference value.
It's not even as meaningful as those ridiculously blurry videos of Xia Chen's on-campus ranking match online that looked like they were shot with a door lock.
So in the end, the effective information Jiang Pei got, apart from Xia Chen's three main elves, was that Menas can butterfly dance and spray water, and can release moves very quickly, and Xianbu can react quickly with the power of the earth. This is the text message that Seshanaiduo is very beautiful.
Hey, wait?
What kind of valid information is the last one?
…………
Both sides withdrew their thoughts and turned their attention to the battlefield.
Seeing that both players were in position, the referee also blew the whistle for the start of the winner's group focus battle.
"Come out, Hippomon!"
"Menas, prepare to fight!"
Two elf balls were thrown, white lights intertwined.
One beautiful and one ugly, two elves with extreme contrast appeared on the battlefield.
It was the starting elves of both sides, Menas and Hippomon.
"Homu——"
Before its four feet even touched the ground, the hippopotamus opened its huge mouth, which could be up to two meters in diameter, and roared to the sky.
Immediately, a huge amount of yellow sand mixed with fine gravel and stones spurted out from the six protruding holes on his back.
Not long after, the whole place was filled with dust that covered the sky.
As soon as the game started, the Sand Hippo's characteristic [Blowing Sand] was activated.
Jiang Pei and Xia Chen put down the dust-proof goggles on their foreheads in tacit agreement.
Whether you are using a trainer from the Sandstorm Team, or your opponent is a trainer from the Sandstorm Team, without this thing, you may have to direct the entire game with your eyes closed.
But even so, the function of these glasses is only to prevent dust, and the sandstorm covering the field still completely obscures the elves on the field, making it difficult for people to see clearly.
Fortunately, the strength of this hippo beast is only at the elite level, and the sandstorm raised is not big enough. From the outside, the outlines of the two elves on the field can still be seen clearly, otherwise the audience would be really lonely watching this kind of battle.
A sandstorm has formed, and the real battle begins from now on.
"Meenas, squirt!"
"Hippomon, invisible rock!"
Two command sounds came from the opposing battlefield almost at the same time.
After all, it was Menas, who released his moves faster, who made the first move.
The energy of the water system condensed, and a steady stream of water spurted out from Menas's mouth. The water quickly formed a wave. Driven by the energy, it rushed towards the hippo beast's position one after another.
At the same time, the air was thick with water vapor, and the sandstorm on the field was affected by it and weakened a bit.
…………
Menas can spray water, Jiang Pei knows.
The water spray was very powerful, and he knew it.
But he clearly had the opportunity to let the hippopotamus dig a hole to avoid the water spray, but he did not do so.
Tactics above all else.
"Hippomon, continue!"
Therefore, in the face of Menas' attack, Hippopotamus remained unmoved.
He allowed the raging waves to hit his body while faithfully performing the tasks assigned to him by his trainer.
The big mouth opened, energy surged, and countless small and sharp rocks flew out of the hippo beast's mouth, densely planted around Menas, and then magically disappeared.
The invisible rock will not affect the elves on the battlefield.
But as soon as the opponent swaps elves, sharp rocks containing rock energy will appear and pierce into the body of the elves that just appeared, causing considerable damage.
Looking at the invisible rocks lurking around Menas, Xia Chen smiled slightly. He probably understood his opponent's thinking in this game.
But there is no rush now. Just like Hippopotamus has to release the invisible rock without avoiding the water spray, he also has to do what he wants to do first.
But it's not like asking for rain to steal the weather. If you open it now, your opponent will probably yawn or blow it away and snatch it back. It's not time to steal the weather.
He's going to do another thing that will disgust his opponents.
"Meinas, freezing beam!"
Jiang Pei was slightly puzzled. Since Menas was the first one, why not use rain to change the weather?
What kind of medicine is sold in this Xia Chen gourd?
Although he was confused, the situation on the field did not allow him to think too much.
He subconsciously commanded: "Hippo beast, dig a hole!"
The characteristics of the hippo beast allow him to quickly start sandstorm weather, and Jiang Pei does not want the hippopotamus to fall so early.
A high-power water spray of this type that also doubles as a restraint on Hippopotamus is enough to hurt him. If he is hit by the freezing beam again, Hippopotamus's state will be extremely dangerous.
Upon hearing the command, the hippopotamus' short but powerful limbs immediately waved quickly on the ground.
Although the movement speed of Hippopotamus is still not as fast as the speed at which Menus condenses and shoots the freezing beam, its short body and low chassis allow him to pass by the ice blue beam containing extremely cold energy.
At the cost of almost frostbite on a small area on its back, the hippopotamus managed to escape the freezing beam and burrow into the ground.
…………
Logically speaking, Menas's freezing beam should stop when the attack target disappears.
But in fact, the freezing beam shot from Menas's mouth not only did not stop, but became thicker and bigger.
Jiang Pei frowned slightly and realized that things were not simple.
However, in his line of sight, he saw a frozen beam of light moving slowly on the ground.
Immediately, the beam condensed the water stains on the ground that had not dissipated from the water spray just now into ice.
As the freezing beam moved, the ice covered less than half of the arena.
After all, Jiang Pei still had too little actual combat experience after practicing in the Huangsha Dojo in the northwest for many years.
In addition, there are almost no water or ice elves living there, so he has no idea about this kind of routine.
At this moment, Jiang Peicai understood Xia Chen's true intention. He wanted to use water spray and ice light to change the venue into a "frozen venue"!
Although it would not affect the sandstorm weather, he understood that it would greatly weaken the mobility of his hippopotamus and dragon-headed gophers.
Even more seriously, this will affect the release of moves such as digging holes and earthquakes!
Of course Jiang Pei will not sit still and wait for death.
While Menas was still making ice, he commanded without hesitation: "Hippo Beast, go over and stop him!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the bulging soil under the ground began to stir.
Most ground elves can dig holes underneath faster than they can run on the ground, and Hippopotamus is one of them.
Because there was no need to worry about being hit by the moves, the hippopotamus dug the hole without any distractions and approached Menas' direction at an extremely fast speed.
Xia Chen doesn't care about this. You can dig if you want, but you can push if you want. Let my Menas finish making ice first.
Before the hippo beast dug under Menus, the freezing beam that lasted for nearly twenty seconds had transformed most of the field into a "frozen field."
It has no other use than making your hippopotamus and dragon-headed gophers comfortable.
Then, the hippo beast dug out from the ground, like a crocodile hiding under the water, opened its bloody mouth with a diameter of two meters, and bit fiercely at Menas who was still freezing the beam.
"Fuwu!"
Because of its huge mouth, the hippopotamus almost tore the entire length of Menashin's body into its mouth.
Although his teeth were not sharp, their bite force was astonishing, as if a heavy industrial machine was punching his body. Menas, who was bitten tightly, let out a cry of pain.
After all, he is a seeded player with the ability to secure eight and fight for four. Although his main function is to control the weather, the attack power of Hippopotamus is not low at all.
This "bite" that broke out of the ground and contained ground energy really gave Menas a head-on blow.
…………
"Meenas, surf!"
With Menus' own strength, it was difficult to break away from the hippopotamus beast's mouth. Xia Chen tried to use a large-scale attack like surfing to drive away the hippopotamus beast that refused to let go.
The body was locked, but the energy in the mouth and body was not locked. Holding back the pain in the body, Menas spit out a huge amount of water.
The water quickly gathered around the two entangled elves and turned into majestic waves, which were about to hit the huge body of the hippopotamus.
First it was hurt by the water spray, and then it was slightly scratched by the freezing beam. If it were to take full advantage of the surf, the hippopotamus beast, no matter how thick-skinned and thick-bodied it was, might not be able to withstand it.
Of course, if you can use Hippopotamus to replace Menas, who you are most afraid of in the opponent's lineup, that's not impossible.
But the problem is that he asked Hippomon to use the Invisible Rock instead of Earthquake at the beginning, and Menas's physical condition was not consumed at all.
If it was an earthquake, coupled with the sandstorm that had caused minor but continuous damage to Menas since the beginning, there would be a chance to replace him.
It's a pity that there is no if
Therefore, in a head-to-head fight with Menus, Hippopotamus will definitely fall first.
After figuring this out, Jiang Pei decisively gave up his intention to pursue Menas and immediately commanded: "Let go and blow away!"
At this moment, Jiang Pei finally used the invisible rock that was laid out at the beginning.
When blown out, not only can Menas, the most difficult player in Xia Chen's team, be forced off the field, but it can also make the elf who is replaced enjoy the torture of the invisible rock.
The most important thing is that the elves who can compete with him for the weather disappear, which is very friendly to the Sandstorm team.
And if Xia Chen wants to change to Menas Kaiyutian, he will be stabbed by the invisible rock again.
This is a very mature little tactic of the Sandstorm team, but it doesn't matter if the tactic is old or not, as long as it's easy to use.
"Homu——"
The giant mouth of the hippopotamus opened and let go of the biting Menas, but did not close it. Instead, it circulated its energy and blew out a strange wind containing strange energy.
Menas, who was blown by the strange wind, immediately turned into a red light and returned to the elf ball at Xia Chen's waist.
…………
In reality, moves such as blowing the wind cannot automatically pull out the backup elf.
But in an elf battle, if one side has no elf on the field for a long time, it will be judged as a loss, so no matter what, the next elf must appear.
Xia Chen seemed to have anticipated the hippo beast's blow. Without hesitation, he took out one of the remaining two elf balls and threw it.
White light flashed, and a tall, elegant figure appeared on the battlefield.
Although they couldn't see it clearly, everyone knew that it was Xia Chen's Gardevoir!
The scene they had been looking forward to for three days finally appeared. In the live broadcast room, Xia Chen's fans instantly became excited.
"Gardevoir! My Gardevoir! (Wriggling like crazy! Crawling in a twisted way!)"
"Master Pigeon, are you this heartless guy finally willing to show off your daughter?"
"Three days! I've been waiting for three full days! Do you know how I spent these three days without seeing Gardevoir?"
"Damn it, I've never hated the Sandstorm Team so much. Can you please do a Qixi Blue Bird that has nothing to do with the weather and shut down this sandstorm weather for me!"
"No, generating electricity? What about a group of people? Each one of them looks like they have never seen Gardevoir before, and this is during a sandstorm, so it seems like you can see clearly."
"You simply don't understand that true love that goes deep into the soul requires no appearance or words. Just a figure is enough to explain everything. Besides, look at her slim back, graceful figure, and elegant temperament, let me ask you , isn’t she beautiful?”
"It's really wrong. What the hell is all this?"
Although the yellow sand flying in the sky obscured the eyes of Gardevoir fans, it could not obscure their burning hearts.
Just one figure created the most violent barrage in the entire live broadcast room today.
After the electricity was generated, the audience gradually calmed down and continued to watch the game seriously.
This focus battle is far from over. They all want to know how Gardevoir will perform.
But when they turned their attention back to the battlefield, they found that the situation at this time had quietly changed.
…………
Although Menas was blown back into the Poké Ball by the [blowing wind], the surf had already broken out, and Hippomon still could not escape the impact of the raging wave.
But it was hit, but not completely hit.
Because during this period, Jiang Pei had decisively taken the hippopotamus back into the elf ball.
He didn't try to let the hippopotamus ambush the replacement Gardevoir.
One is a problem with his own condition, and the other is that according to the information collected before the game, Gardevoir reacts very quickly and often uses teleportation to dodge moves and then counterattack.
Jiang Pei didn't want to steal the chicken but lose the rice.
Moreover, if the weather hand is turned back and released for a while, the sandstorm can continue.
A good trainer will use all the characteristics of the elf to his advantage.
This is something that his teacher Tao Gongye asked him to keep in mind.
So after blowing off the wind, the sandstorm weather was turned on, the invisible rock was released, and Menas was wounded and blown away. The hippopotamus, which had perfectly completed the tactical task, returned to the Poké Ball with scars.
Thank you for your hard work, Hippopotamus!
Jiang Pei murmured to himself, then quickly threw the elf ball he had prepared.
Red and white lights alternated, and Sandstorm's core thug, the dragon-headed gopher, appeared on the battlefield almost at the same time as Gardevoir.
Although the two elves appeared at the same time in perfect condition, their appearance treatment was different.
As soon as the Dragon-Headed Gopher came on the field, his body had a wonderful energy reaction with the sandstorm on the field. The [Sand Splash] feature was activated, and the Dragon-Headed Gopher's true speed had been quietly increasing.
As for Gardevoir, the invisible rock that had been hiding for a long time finally revealed its sharp fangs, piercing into the body of Gardevoir who had just appeared, coupled with the flying sand and rocks whizzing by on the field.
Just after appearing on the stage, Gardevoir stepped on a mine planted by his opponent. Although the damage was not too great, it was very disgusting.
The showdown between the two elves has not yet begun, but the balance of victory seems to have tilted towards the dragon-headed gopher.
But Xia Chen didn't think so.
…………
"Gardevoir, meditate!"
Xia Chen still had to throw the ball faster, and he had already given the command before Gardevoir had even completely landed on the ground.
While the opponent was changing elves, he wanted to make a small timing and let Gardevoir indulge in a period of ordinary meditation.
Jiang Pei wanted to stop it, but the leading gopher who just came on the stage was far away from Gardevoir, and he had no effective long-range attack methods.
With a sudden change of heart, he shouted loudly: "Dragon-headed gopher, sword dance!"
If you can't stop it, join it.
If you strengthen, I will strengthen too!
The sandstorm will last for a while, and this sword dance is enough for the dragon-headed gopher to do a lot of things.
