Chapter 53 Celebration Competition
Li Shuwen's opponent is a handsome brown-haired guy with ramen noodle hair.
"Ah Qing, Ah Qing is so handsome! Ah Qing, Ah Qing is the best!"
On the platform behind them, several young and beautiful girls, dressed as cheerleaders, were frantically waving the flowers in their hands.
With so many cheerleaders and such a flamboyant style, I wonder how good they are.
The spectators in the stands were also talking about this show-off guy.
"With so many beautiful girls with him, what makes him so special?!"
It's truly enviable, jealous, and hateful.
"I know him, Aqing from Mata Town. He's definitely a master, otherwise he wouldn't have such beautiful girls cheering him on."
"Especially his poisonous rose, the dance of flowers, he used it very beautifully, with a deadly intent hidden in the beauty. Ah Qing used this move to defeat the enemy and win the heart of a young girl."
"Wow, that's amazing! That guy over there is in for it. By the way, who's that guy? Does anyone know him?"
People around shook their heads. "Such a striking hairstyle, but I don't remember it. She's probably a newcomer."
"This newcomer was unlucky to run into Aqing; hopefully, it won't leave her with any psychological trauma."
Ah Qing lightly kissed the Poké Ball, then stylishly threw it out.
"Please, my honey."
The so-called sweetheart is nothing but a poisonous rose.
At least send out one Roserade. Can't you stop acting like this?
"Scaled Dragon, Dragon Dance!"
"Poisonous Rose, Dance of Flowers!"
The poisonous rose rotated its body, releasing its petals.
Before the Dance of Flowers could reach it, the Armored Dragon had already completed its enhancement.
Intuition told Li Shuwen that one Dragon Dance enhancement would be enough to defeat the Poison Rose in front of him.
"Charge! Dragon Claw!"
The petals fluttering in the air looked absolutely beautiful.
But the blows to the scales of the armored dragon could not budge it in the slightest.
The scaled dragon charged at the poisonous rose and swung its claws.
The somewhat bewildered Poison Rose was sent flying.
Upon landing, Poison Rose was already unconscious.
Li Shuwen narrowed his eyes slightly; his feeling was indeed similar to Li Shuwen's.
This poisonous rose is outwardly strong but inwardly weak.
Aqing's eyes widened. "Poison Rose! My sweetheart!"
The referee waved his flag, announcing, "Poison Rose is incapacitated; the victor is the Armored Dragon!"
The cheerleaders, who had been singing and dancing, suddenly stopped.
Then she started sobbing, "Lord Qing... I lost~"
The audience stared wide-eyed. "Aqing actually lost!"
The uncle clicked his tongue in amazement, "Did you see that? The Poison Rose's Dance of Flowers doesn't seem to have broken through the opponent's scale defense!"
"Dragon Claw, clean and efficient, a one-hit kill, this guy is pretty good." The girl with glasses pushed up her glasses.
"Hey friend, how can using Dragon Dance be considered a one-hit kill?" The troll stepped forward.
"Wait, is this guy really a newbie?"
Aqing, looking dazed, retracted the poisonous rose. He couldn't believe that he would be eliminated in the first round of the celebration competition.
How could he possibly lose when he's at that level?
Moreover, it was a single Dragon Claw attack that rendered Poison Rose unable to fight.
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
The referee looked at Aqing and said, "Please leave the field, Aqing."
Li Shuwen had already quietly put away the Scaled Dragon and returned to the backstage area.
There's nothing to be proud of in defeating a trainer like that.
Li Meining ran over excitedly, "Brother, I won!"
"Let me tell you, that Speaker Scooper over there was really strong, but with Riolu and me working together, we still easily defeated it!"
A speaker grill? Especially powerful?
Well, with consistent training, the speaker cricket can indeed transform into a speaker cricket hero and write its own legend.
Li Shuwen ruffled her hair. "Our Xiao Ning is the best!"
"Let's go find Nurse Joy to restore the Pokémon's stamina."
After a break of more than half an hour, the second round of the competition finally began.
Shortly after Li Meining left, Li Shuwen also received a notification from the staff to go on stage.
"Yes, it's that handsome red-haired guy! His Pokémon just defeated Aqing's Roselia in one move!"
The spiky-haired man next to him scoffed, "He was just lucky to hit a vital spot. This time, his opponent is Aaron!"
"Is Aaron so great?"
"Aron is certainly amazing! His Roentgenie has won seven championships! His Poison Rose is nowhere near as good as Aqing's!"
The middle-aged man next to him laughed and said, "Seven-time champion, it looks like we'll be seeing a spectacular battle this time."
Aaron was a muscular, strong man, but rather ugly.
Li Shuwen is an absolute heartthrob.
"Go, handsome! Defeat that gorilla!"
"Gorilla!" Aaron clenched his fist. He hated these pretty boys who had no skills and only relied on their looks!
It's definitely not because he's ugly that no girl likes him, even though he's won multiple championships.
"Röntgen Cat, teach him a lesson! 100,000 Volts!"
"Dragon Dance!"
The scaled dragon danced amidst the lightning, as if the 100,000 volts had no effect on it.
Aaron grinned, causing a group of young women who saw him to involuntarily cover their eyes.
"I knew it! Roentgenfeld, Mad Volt!"
"Dragon Dance!"
The Röntgen Cat charged forward, carrying lightning, but the Armored Dragon unexpectedly swung its body and successfully dodged!
Aaron was shocked. "What!" Crazy Volt was Roentgen's ultimate move, and he was just waiting for the opponent to reveal a weakness after Dragon Dance.
How could it have been avoided?!
A glint flashed in Li Shuwen's eyes—now!
"Dragon Tail!"
The scaled dragon spun around and lashed the Röntgen cat's lower back with its tail, as the cat couldn't turn around in time.
The Röntgen cat let out a scream and collapsed to the ground.
The dragon's tail struck Roentgen the Cat so hard that its vision went black and it almost couldn't catch its breath.
Aaron clenched his fist. "Damn it!"
"Röntgen Cat, cheer up!"
Responding to its trainer's call, Xeno'jiiva got up from the ground.
A shadow appeared in front of him.
The scaled dragon swung its right hand in a powerful strike, hitting the Röntgen cat squarely in the forehead.
Li Shuwen coldly said, "Split the tiles!"
Li Shuwen was overjoyed. Was this the tacit understanding between a trainer with high affinity and a Pokémon?
Li Shuwen's order was just given when the scaled dragon's hand fell.
As the tile fell, Röntgen's eyes widened and his body trembled.
His body stiffened, and he collapsed to the ground, unable to get up.
The referee waved his flag, announcing, "Röntgen is incapacitated; the winner is Kommo-o!"
"Clean and efficient! The first time you used Dragon Dance, you didn't dodge Thunderbolt; you were luring the enemy in deep. Using Dragon Dance to evade the attack was truly amazing!"
The uncle nodded in agreement, "Aaron was still naively thinking that the other party couldn't avoid it and had a chance, but he didn't expect it to be a trap."
"Don't you think that final Brick Break was the essence? The palm strike came first, followed by the command, perfectly demonstrating the tacit understanding between the Pokémon and the trainer."
"There's still no information on this trainer? He's already defeated two powerful trainers."
A spectator, his face ashen, clenched his fist and said:
"That guy is Li Shuwen, the trainee Gym Leader of the Veiled Dojo! How can a gym leader like him participate in a competition for ordinary trainers like us?!"
This guy, whose eyes are full of jealousy, is none other than A-Yuan Momochi, who was eliminated in the first round and tried to frame the Veiled Gym.
"Aspiring Gym Leader? Then he's not a Gym Leader yet. No wonder he came to participate in the competition; he wanted to spread his fame through the competition."
"Aqing lost in one round, and Aaron lost in two rounds. When will a truly powerful trainer appear who can fight Li Shuwen to a standstill?"
