Chapter 72 The Final Round
Chapter 72 The Final Round
Qi Hao punched a tree next to him hard, breaking it in two, as if venting his anger.
"Please distribute your tokens properly and proceed to the arena next to the training ground for the third round of battles." Song Chenggong's voice came from his hand, and A Ren separated from Qi Hao.
"Thank you for your hard work. Go back and rest now." Qi Hao took out a Poké Ball, and A Ren nodded and pressed his hand onto it.
"That bastard!" Qin Ni cursed, then bowed deeply to everyone, completely disregarding his injuries. "I'm sorry! It's my fault for letting him take the token; otherwise, first place would have been ours."
“It’s alright. Apart from Ma Ling’er and Qi Hao, none of us can handle that thing alone.” N said, handing the token to Qi Hao. “My Zoroark needs tactical planning and isn’t high enough level, while you are adaptable and shapeshifting. I’ll leave the rest to you.”
Upon seeing this, Qi Hao solemnly accepted the token. "Since that's the case, I won't stand on ceremony. I won't let you down."
N nodded, took off his hat and handed it to Qi Hao: "I believe that you, who can make Qin Ni bow and apologize and understand the spirit's heart, will not disappoint me."
Qi Hao tidied his long white hair, took the hat and put it on. Ma Ling'er also handed him his token. "I think there is no more suitable option than someone who has defeated me."
"Let's fight back for Qin Ni. We can't let our own people get beaten for nothing." Li Linfeng also took out his token. "If my Salamence wasn't broken, I would have gone to teach him a lesson myself."
Wan Xingqing silently handed her token to Tianshui. Tianshui nodded and gave both tokens to Qihao, saying, "You go ahead. My brother and I will just watch the show."
"Is that so?" Qi Hao looked at the six tokens in his hand, all of their hopes placed on him. "But Xiao Tie is only level 45. Even if I can defeat a level 50, I might not be able to beat him, right? Do you really trust me that much?"
"Are you going to deny your bond with the elf?" N shook his head. "The moment you and your elf can communicate with each other, you yourself are already full of infinite possibilities."
"But his plan is so meticulous, he must have made thorough preparations, and the Pokémon he uses in the final battle must be extraordinary. Even so, do you still believe me?"
"Just like in business, nothing is absolute. Even the most perfect formation will have its weaknesses!" Ma Ling'er patted Qi Hao's shoulder. "Remember what I said? If you cower in fear, you can't do anything! Besides, I think you have the potential for further evolution!"
"The possibility of further evolution?" Qi Hao looked at the Poké Ball in his hand. He could feel that Xiao Tie was looking at him as well.
"Trust your own judgment!" Li Linfeng punched Qi Hao on the shoulder. "You should know why we trust you! Because you're a guy who trusts his own elf!"
Qi Hao grinned, revealing his signature shark teeth, and lifted the brim of his hat so that sunlight shone into his eyes, reflecting a blue light: "Ah, you're right, let's go, how will we know if we don't try!"
"That's right!" Li Linfeng got back on the Flying Dragon. "Get on! I can't wait to see you beat that big idiot to a pulp!"
With the Salamence moving at incredible speed, Qi Hao and the others quickly left the manual and headed towards the dueling arena.
"Hey, did you hear? The most difficult grade's standardized tests are about to end!"
"So what? I've been watching this civil war for four years now, isn't it interesting?"
"Come on, you don't know, a student from Class Two just went to participate in the final round with a token! And that token was real!"
"Huh?? Let's go, let's go, watching the show is free anyway."
Qi Hao was at the intersection, holding six tokens and swiping them.
"Error, this is fake" X5
Goodness, the last one was the real deal. Everyone around was looking over. Although Qi Hao wasn't embarrassed, Ma Ling'er and the others were.
"(╯>д<)╯ I'm really done for! Why is it so hard to farm?"
"Please, Qi Hao, enter the venue quickly. Lin Yuan Gou is already in position."
Qi Hao and the six people behind him exchanged glances and nodded to each other. Before leaving, he gave them a thumbs-up as a buff.
Before leaving, Qin Ni ran over and handed his part of the pendant to Qi Hao: "Take it. I'm with you. Remember to return it to me when you win."
Qi Hao nodded and walked in through the passage. The huge arena was packed with spectators. Song Chenggong and Chen Mutong sat in the middle seats, with two empty seats around them. One of the empty seats had an open tablet on it.
Song Chenggong stood up and took the microphone. "Both sides are in position! Red team!! It's Lin Yuangou, who has been ranked 7th in the grade for several consecutive years! Blue team! It's Qi Hao, the transfer student from Class 1!"
"Ohhhhhhh!"
"The newcomer is a seasoned veteran!"
"Both sides release their Pokémon!"
Qi Hao released Xiao Tie onto the field, while Lin Yuan Gou released a Tyranitar, which was level 59!
"Roar!!!" Tyranitar roared! The atmosphere at the scene was instantly ignited!
"Great!!! Very energetic!!"
"Come on! Let's place the bets! I'm betting on Bangilas!"
"Bullshit! The level difference is more than ten levels! I'm not blind! This newly evolved Metagross thinks it can win? You're kidding me!"
Qi Hao's face was unusually expressionless. He took a deep breath and went straight into the Mind of Still Water and Clear Mirror, not wanting to be influenced by others.
"Really not surrendering? Metagross's Psychic-type attacks can't hurt Tyranitar! You still have a chance to surrender now!" Zero Yuan's annoying voice came again. Seeing that Qi Hao, who had entered a state of perfect tranquility, completely ignored him, he scoffed.
"Both sides in position, one-on-one battle confirmed, barrier deployed, arena successfully randomized, ruins and rubble arena activated."
The superpowers covered a battlefield the size of two football fields, and the area was filled with dilapidated buildings and countless broken skyscrapers.
"Stop betting! Huh? There are still six people betting on the Mega Monster! Aren't they just throwing money away?!" the student yelled, and was then surrounded by Ma Ling'er and the others. "Hey kid, say that again??"
“Σ( ° △ °|||) Ah, everyone, let’s talk this out, please don’t slap me in the face.”
In the middle of the stands, Song Chenggong scrolled through the tablet next to him, "(o﹏o?) Sis! I'm really going to get beaten up if you make these rules!"
"Call me 'sister' my foot! How dare you assume my gender! You're the one who suggested the rules so I could get out of seclusion. Otherwise, how would I know if this batch of students is worth my time?!"
"Ugh! ...I guess I'm just unlucky! I hope Lin Yuangou doesn't win. It's already written into the rules that you can't predict the future before the exam! He did use it, but he made such a big deal out of it. If he had won, he could have been in jail for a few years." Song Chenggong was a little overwhelmed. He inexplicably felt like he was being blamed for something, but he just didn't know what it was.
"Then I'll pick you up right after this exam. I'm sure you'll be happy with this year's cohort!"
However, the voice on the other end seemed to have given up on the nonsense: "Heh, whatever you say. Don't bother me while I'm watching the game."
