Elf, I am really a farmer

Chapter 553: Admit Defeat - End - Interview

Li Lijuan stood at the sidelines of the arena, watching Bulbasaur and Nidoqueen lose their ability to fight at the same time, a hint of surprise and unwillingness flashed in her eyes.

She thought to herself that she had originally thought that with the strength of Nidoqueen and her carefully formulated tactics,

He thought that this Venusaur would definitely defeat Wenqi's Bulbasaur, but he didn't expect that this Venusaur was so tenacious and could fight with Nidoqueen to the point of both being injured.

Although she was a little disappointed that she failed to win, at least Nidoqueen did not lose, and the two sides just ended in a draw.

But she knew in her heart that the trouble had just begun. Wen Qi still had two Pokémon to command, but she only had one left.

Just now in the battle, she had already used her trump card to turn the situation around, and now she only had some ordinary gym-level Pokémon left.

She knew very well that the strength of these elves was far inferior to that of Wen Qi's giant mantis, and they had no chance of winning at all.

Thinking of this, she slowly raised her hand and signaled to the referee that she gave up.

When the audience around her saw her action, they all showed some surprise on their faces.

But soon, everyone understood her decision.

After all, everyone understood that given the current situation, it would be futile for Li Lijuan to continue fighting, and she would never be able to win the game. If she insisted, she would only put herself in a more embarrassing situation.

A contestant who was familiar with Li Lijuan's situation shook his head and sighed softly:

"Alas, it seems that her dream of becoming a gym leader has been completely shattered. But she is not without a way out.

If you want to control your own destiny, you can either work hard to reach the king level or just wait patiently for a few years.

As the city continues to develop, the demand for gyms will inevitably increase, and new vacancies for gym masters will surely become available.

But she should also know that the competition will be more intense than today, and it may attract many masters from other places to compete, and the struggle will only become more cruel and ruthless. "

When Wen Qi saw Li Lijuan admit defeat, he couldn't help but feel a little admiration for her.

He thought to himself that Li Lijuan was a thoughtful person who could recognize the situation so decisively and resolutely choose to give up when she knew there was no hope of winning.

This avoided unnecessary struggle and loss, and its courage and decisiveness are truly admirable.

Then, the referee walked onto the field with steady steps, cleared his throat, and announced loudly:

"Contestant Li Lijuan admits defeat, contestant Wen Qi wins."

At this point, after several rounds of fierce competition, only four winners remain among the 16 contestants in this competition.

Today's battle session ends here, and the final round of interviews will be held tomorrow.

Wen Qi was relieved when he heard the news. He thought to himself that he was not worried about the interview tomorrow.

Just as Zhou Zhiwen said before, considering his friendship with Dr. Chu Feng, as long as he doesn't perform too badly in the interview tomorrow, he will basically pass it.

Finally, the host walked onto the stage with a smile on his face and said loudly:

"All battles have ended. Please exit in an orderly manner."

Soon, only the four winning contestants, gym leader Zhao Min, the president of the Elf Association, and Inspector Hai were left in the arena.

Zhao Min looked at the four contestants in front of him with a serious expression and slowly said:

"The subsequent battle is over, and the interview will be held tomorrow. I believe you are all clear about the relevant situation, so I will not elaborate on it here.

Tomorrow morning, the four of you just need to come on time for the interview."

After saying this, he waved his hand gently, indicating that the four of them could leave.

Li Lei wanted to talk to Wen Qi, but he also knew that this was not the right time. Now that they had become real competitors, meeting and talking at this time would inevitably lead to unnecessary misunderstandings and troubles.

So, he could only helplessly watch Wen Qi's back gradually going away until he disappeared from his sight. Wen Qi returned to his home alone to gather his energy for tomorrow's interview and prepare for new challenges.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye it is the second day. Wen Qi and the other three contestants arrived at the interview site almost at the same time.

At this time, there were already five interviewers sitting in the meeting room. They were Mayor Li Zhijun, Investigation Captain Jiang Tiansheng, Inspector Hai, President of the Breeding Association, and Gym Master Zhao Min.

These five people will serve as judges for today's interview and decide the final fate of the four contestants.

The first person to enter the interview room was Li Lei. In fact, this interview was largely just a formality, and the result had been basically decided long before the interview.

This is not a deliberate behind-the-scenes operation on their part, but rather a subtle role played by human relationships.

Moreover, the four contestants who have made it to the final interview stage all possess outstanding abilities and qualities. No matter who is finally selected, there will be no situation where they are unworthy of the position.

Although it is just a formality, the necessary processes and links are still indispensable.

After Li Lei stepped into the room, he first politely and respectfully bowed to the five interviewers one by one to greet them, and then began to introduce himself in an orderly manner.

He clearly gave his name and age, and elaborated on his own situation in detail, with the emphasis on his strength in Pokémon training.

During his introduction, the interviewers interrupted from time to time to ask questions, covering many aspects, including his past training experience, the development of tacit understanding between him and Pokémon, etc.

The most critical question is: What is your philosophy for opening a gym? In other words, what can you teach those challengers when you open a gym?

This question is crucial because even if the result has been decided, if the answer to this question is a mess, the decision is likely to change.

Fortunately, Li Lei was well prepared for this question and gave a pretty good answer.

He looked determined and said in a loud voice:

“I hope to pass on the passion and enthusiasm unique to fire trainers to every challenger, so that they can deeply understand,

No matter how difficult and tough the times are, you must always be passionate and enthusiastic about the profession of a trainer and never give up. "

Mayor Li Zhijun nodded slightly, with a hint of approval on his face;

The search team leader Jiang Tiansheng crossed his arms, his eyes revealing a hint of approval;

Inspector Hai looked at Li Lei intently, tapping the table lightly, as if thinking about something;

The president of the Cultivation Association smiled and exchanged a knowing look with the gym master Zhao Min beside him.

Obviously, they were all quite satisfied with Li Lei's answer.

After all, Li Lei was one of the internally selected candidates. As long as there were no unexpected situations during the interview, passing the interview would be a natural outcome.
