Adventure in the Elf World

"Okay, let's stay in a hotel."

There is a little bit of red missing.

But he didn't show any displeasure.

"It's okay for you to come to my house for dinner tonight. After dinner I'll take you to a hotel for the night." Bai Ze was not used to sleeping with others.

"Oh, that would be great!"

Chihong smiled happily.

I was just thinking that I could sleep on the floor.

It’s a pity that I didn’t have the chance to say it.

After cutting the bamboo, he took advantage of the break to challenge Bai Ze. Since today was the open day for the battle secret realm, it meant they could fight.

As expected, Bai Ze agreed very readily. As the chief pioneer, he couldn't keep the secret realm closed to battle all the time. He had to open it occasionally, but opening it was not enough. He had to accept challenges.

In other words, there are indicators.

This metric has nothing to do with winning or losing.

Just challenge someone.

The naive Chihong thought that Bai Ze agreed to the challenge because they had a good relationship. It was true that they had a good relationship, but that was not the reason.

The rules of this challenge are four vs. four. Red used Suicune to defeat Gengar, who was in a not-so-good state, right at the beginning, and then replaced Windy with Suicune. The start was smooth, but when White Ze sent out Bangiras, the battle situation changed immediately. Charizard and Snorlax were no match for Bangiras.

Seeing that it was about to lose, it finally sent out the powerful Thunder God, who barely defeated Bangilas. However, it had almost no ability to fight back against the Silver Winged Dragon because all its trump cards were used to deal with Bangilas.

"Alas, I can't beat him!"

Chihong shook his head angrily.

Compared to before.

This record looks pretty good.

However, he was puzzled as to why Bai Ze's fighting intensity had dropped a lot. Was he letting the opponent win on purpose and not using many of his killer moves?

In fact, the reason is very simple, that is, we do not want to cause extensive damage to the facilities in the venue, and it will cost a lot of budget to repair and maintain them.

Later, under Chihong's questioning.

Bai Ze explained the reason.

After dinner.

Chat in the living room.

I'll send Chihong to the hotel later.

Although I have a small regret tonight that I cannot spend the night at Bai Ze's house, I am already very satisfied to have a home-cooked meal there.

Chihong really wants to make friends with Bai Ze. Only through communication can there be progress. How can there be progress if they don’t interact with each other on a regular basis?

After sending Chihong to the hotel.

Bai Ze rode the Arcanine back home.

My brother is watching TV at this time.

"is this okay?"

"Uh, I don't want to be discovered."

Bai Ze was referring to his own secret.

After all, I need some alone time every night. Even my brother would not come in and disturb me. I seem to be staying in the room, but I am actually hiding in a secret place. Especially during training, there might not be a response even if I knock on the door.

"Then I'll go back to the room first."

"it is good!"

Bai Ze walked into the room.

He turned around and opened the portal.

Enter the main secret realm as usual.

"Reserve troops assembled!"

He sent out telepathic messages.

Remote telepathy is still used.

Not long after, Metagross and Triceratops arrived first, followed by Snorlax, Kugrim and Lucario. Dragonite was a little slow in arriving, and the six members of the reserve team were finally gathered.

"Tomorrow I will leave for the Galar region to participate in the Global Elite Cup. You must prepare to play as soon as possible."

I heard Bai Ze say this.

They are very excited.

The expectation in his eyes could not be concealed.

We have worked so hard for so long just to shine in the Global Elite Cup and make up for the regret of not being able to play in the World Championships.

So cool~

Metagross touches claws.

The red pupils ignited fighting spirit.

Sound~

The Styracosaurus glared.

The aura of the explosion is particularly strong.

Ouch~

Aluminum-steel bridge dragon is more stable.

Because it can't act recklessly like other friends. This is the main secret realm, and randomly releasing gravity energy will damage the ecological environment.

Needless to say, Snow Snorlax, Kujira and Lucario have been waiting for this day for a long time. They even dream about the fierce battle scenes, so they are looking forward to this day to come sooner.

Since the fighting competition ended.

Two weeks have passed.

During these two weeks.

The training results are quite good.

Metagross: Level 50 (Elite Advanced)

Styracosaurus: Level 50 (Elite Advanced)

Aluminum Steel Bridge Dragon: Level 50 (Elite Advanced)

Snowman Snorlax: Level 48 (Elite Advanced)

Circle Bear: Level 47 (Elite Advanced)

Lucario: Level 47 (Elite Advanced)

The six members of the reserve team have all reached the advanced elite level. The most difficult one is Metagross. In order to participate in the Global Elite Cup, they have to control their level below level 50, and the highest can only be level .

Players above level 50 are not allowed to play.

There is nothing we can do about this.

Bai Ze stayed in the main secret realm for a while before returning to his room to sleep. He didn't get up early the next morning, but his brother had already prepared breakfast with a note next to it: I won't take you there, good luck in the Global Elite Cup!

"Why are you so slow?"

Chihong ran over.

I just happened to run into Bai Ze who was about to go out.

"Didn't I tell you to wait for me at the dock? I'll ride my speedster over there. There's still two hours left, so I should be able to catch the plane."

The geographical location of the Battle Zone is a bit special. You have to take a plane to the nearby Veil City, where there are new direct flights to Gongmen City. The ticket price is not expensive, but due to the special period, the price will inevitably increase.

They quickened their pace.

As a result, I arrived early.

Other passerby trainers noticed the figures of Bai Ze and Chi Hong and flocked to them to ask for their autographs, while some took the opportunity to ask a lot of questions.

I finally got on the plane.

It's still the same group of people.

Buying an economy class ticket is like this.

With no other choice, he had to ask the flight attendant to help upgrade the cabin, and upgraded both Chihong and him to first class. He paid for the upgrade.

"How embarrassing is this!"

"Then you give me the money."

Chihong was just being polite.

Being criticized by Bai Ze.

I could only scratch my head in embarrassment.

The weather was very good today and the plane took off on time, but they didn’t know when they would arrive at Gongmen City in the Galar region. They fell asleep right after finishing their airplane meal, feeling like they were not here to participate in the Global Elite Cup but to be spectators.

"Phew, here we come!"

Chihong was the first to get off the plane.

Stretch your body

"Report first!"

Bai Ze did not forget the process.

Despite having confirmed his participation in the Global Elite Cup.

But you still have to report when you come.

The purpose of reporting is to arrange accommodation, which is a benefit provided by the official. You don’t have to spend money to stay in a hotel outside. This benefit is only limited to the eight masters. Other contestants do not have this treatment and can only pay for accommodation.

The opening ceremony of the Global Elite Cup started at 7pm. I heard that the official Elf League organized a fireworks show for this occasion.

Ai Xue ran over to find Bai Ze as soon as possible, as if she had endless things to say, and insisted on dragging Bai Ze to have dinner together. They should have enough time, but who knew that there were so many spectators coming to watch the game that they were almost blocked on the road.

Fortunately, Chihong came to the rescue.

Finally caught up.

"Welcome everyone to the Gongmen Arena. The opening ceremony of the Global Elite Cup is about to begin. Let us invite the strongest king, Bai Ze to the stage!" There was no extra nonsense at the beginning, and the host shouted excitedly.

Countless spotlights were focused on Bai Ze, and after entering the ring according to the procedure, he had to sit on the high defense platform.

There are eight chairs in the ring.

The location is important.

The strongest king should sit in the middle.

"Does it have to be like this?"

Bai Ze sighed helplessly.

Except sit down.

It seems there is no other way.

Next it was Dan Di's turn to appear on stage. Dan Di was more suitable than him to stand under the spotlight and enjoy the cheers from all directions.

Before sitting down, Dan Di greeted Bai Ze enthusiastically, as if they were rivals who respected each other and couldn't wait to fight.

But it doesn't happen so fast.

There are more than 2,000 elite trainers participating in the Global Elite Cup, but it does not rule out the possibility that ordinary trainers whose strength has not yet reached the elite beginner level may sneak in, because the rules do not restrict ordinary trainers from registering.

Wait for Emperor Dan to sit down.

Chihong and Zhulan appeared together.

The whole audience erupted in exclamations.

The remaining eight masters, namely Daigo, Ashe, Kaluna and Adu, were also present and sat on the official defense platform. The atmosphere on the scene was no less than that of the World Championships.

Bai Ze smiled at the other eight masters, then swept his eyes around, taking in the entire viewing area of ​​the Palace Gate Arena.

The eight masters will automatically advance to the top 16 by default, which means that other contestants must advance to the top eight to have a chance to compete with the eight masters, otherwise they will be eliminated by other competitors.

More than two thousand elite trainers.

The competition is just too fierce.

at this time.

Countless fireworks rose into the sky.

The opening ceremony was scheduled for the evening in order to set off fireworks, and the huge fireworks festival began.

Since the Global Elite Cup is being held for the first time, it must be held in a grand manner to let the elite trainers feel the official's attention to them.

Bang! Bang! The fireworks rise to high in the sky and explode to form Pokémon patterns, which are very unique and creative. However, most of them are popular Pokémon, and occasionally patterns of unpopular Pokémon will appear.

Wait until the fireworks display is over.

The battle begins.

Yes!

Immediately enter the elimination stage.

The matchup table is random.

Whoever comes.

Whoever gets to play.

The battle mode is 1vs1.

This means that there can be no room for error.

More than 1 elite trainers started a fierce 1vs competition. The most terrifying thing was that there was a limit of five minutes. If they could not defeat the opponent within five minutes, both sides would lose the qualification to participate.

All the contestants did not know in advance that the elimination stage would have a time limit, and when the host announced the rules of the battle, the whole audience was in an uproar.

Traditional battles are limited in time.

This will undoubtedly increase the difficulty of the battle.

It would be too cruel to be eliminated if you procrastinate. Only by advancing to the quarterfinals will there be a chance to lift the time limit.

If you advance to the quarterfinals, you will face the eight masters, and then it will become the round of 16. The real highlight is here.

no way.

There are too many people signing up.

If you don't adopt a time-limited strategy in the knockout stage, I don't know how many days it will take. Thinking from another perspective, this is also a test for elite trainers.

so boring!

Bai Ze sat on the defensive stage.

I really want to sneak away.

He didn't understand why they had to sit here and watch after automatically advancing to the round of 16. Couldn't they move around freely?

After the fireworks ceremony, the elimination round began, from 8pm to 10:30pm, and the next day from 2pm to 8pm. It lasted for nearly three days and finally the top 16 were decided.

Except for the Eight Masters.

The other eight trainers are:

Shinji

Chibana

Adek

Dakoto

黑曜

艾岚

杜舍

A Liu

Incredibly, Darko also participated, and he cleared the level as Darkrai just like before, advancing with almost no pressure.

In comparison, Kuroo is not much inferior. Although his strength has grown, a large part of the reason why he was able to advance was due to luck. Haibara and Ryota were not so lucky and unfortunately met Darko.

It is said to be the Global Elite Cup.

But few of them are elite trainers.

Guaranteed to be at the quasi-king level.

It's just that it uses elite-level Pokémon.

Bai Ze was not surprised at all about Shinji and Ai Lan. When he saw these two people participating in the Global Elite Cup, he knew with his eyes closed that they would advance.

It seems like there is a champion mixed in here.

Oh yes, Adek!

Why did he come to participate in the Global Elite Cup? It was too humiliating. As the champion of the Unova region, he had to fight his way to the next round on his own, otherwise he would have no chance to compete with the eight masters.

There is no need to mention Chibana and Aliu.

They are all familiar faces.

Bai Ze didn't have much impression of Du She. He only remembered that this person appeared in the animation and won the Silver Championship of the Johto League.

The official competition of the Global Elite Cup has begun. The eight players who have advanced from the knockout rounds will compete against the eight masters who have automatically advanced. The first round will be a random draw, and whoever is drawn will compete against whom.

The audience stared at the big screen nervously. The first name that appeared was Dushe's, followed by Daigo's name.

The first match is Dushe vs. Daigo

The battle mode is 3vs3.

Although Du She secretly felt lucky that he didn't draw Bai Ze, Daigo's strength should not be underestimated, and his playing style became aggressive.

Dushe lost three Pokémon before he could barely replace one Pokémon in Daigo's hand, and he lost miserably.

The big screen started turning again.

Continue to draw the second group.

Swish, brush, brush~

Shinji's name appears.

Shinji who was in the backstage suddenly became extremely nervous. He didn't know which of the Eight Masters he would face. He hoped it wasn't Bai Ze. If he faced Bai Ze right from the start, it would mean being eliminated in the first round. Therefore, he would avoid him if possible at this stage.

When the screen stops rotating.

A name was clearly displayed.

That is Zhulan.

"Fuck~"

Shinji blurted out.

Against Zhulan.

It seems that there is not much chance of winning.

He had no choice but to go on the field, but Zhulan sent out the Scorpio King right at the start, whose level was exactly 50.

The Global Elite Cup does not allow the use of Pokémon above level 50. She has captured many Pokémon for this purpose, and Scorpio King is one of them.

Shinji also has Scorpio King on his side.

It happens to be level 50 as well.

I don't know if it was recaptured.

Both sides use the same Pokémon, and it depends on who has better command ability, but this does not only depend on command ability, but also on the potential of Pokémon. The same level does not mean that the strength is equal.

The Scorpio King trained by Takeran showed combat power beyond the intermediate quasi-king, and was fully suppressing Shinji's Scorpio King.

Shinji reluctantly took back the defeated Scorpio King, and finally decided to send out the trump card he had prepared long ago, the level 47 Sidolan, whose aura was a bit weak as you could tell from his size.
