Chapter 45- Start of The Main Tournament

In the main event of the Young Phoenix King Cup, a total of 128 contestants were divided into 16 groups.

The group number was represented by the first 16 English letters.
Each group has a total of 8 people.
There would be 4 matches in every group.
The winner advances and the loser is eliminated.

Each of these groups has a seed player, these people are relatively strong rookie trainers who showed their strength during the qualifying rounds.
In order to prevent them from encountering each other in advance, the organizers deliberately conducted such a grouping.

Fang Yuan was No.
3 in Group D.
According to the order, it should be the 14th game today.
His opponent was No.
4 in Group D, who was a female rookie trainer.

Walking in the Eastern Pearl Arena, Fang Yuan looked around searching for someone.

“I’m here, where are you?”

“I saw you, you come a little further.” A voice came from Fang Yuan’s mobile phone.

Fang Yuan heard this and continued to walk a few steps forward, and as expected, he found Lin Jing waving at him.

“Hi.”

“HI.”

“I actually wanted to ask yesterday… You’ve been training with Uncle Lin this summer?” Fang Yuan asked.

“How could it be possible? He just threw me and Growlithe into the police dog training camp, and then ignored us.” Lin Jing said with air.

“The rest time is very short, the instructor still puts on a long face all day long, Don’t you see i got a tan?”

“Did you turn dark? Don’t think so.” Fang Yuan was taken aback.

“You know how to speak.” Lin Jing smiled.

No, I just didn’t pay much attention to you before…

Fang Yuan murmured in his heart, thinking it would be better not to say it, otherwise he would definitely be kicked.

“Anyway, what’s the matter with your clothes, it looks pretty good, but wearing a hat in summer, it doesn’t feel hot?.”

Lin Jing pointed to the red dress that Fang Yuan had just put on today, and asked curiously.

“It’s okay…” Fang Yuan turned his hat and said, “I’m very nervous.
Wearing a hat might be able to relax a little.”

“Really…well, should we go to the contestants room first?” Lin Jing glanced at the time and said, “The match should start in a while.”

“Okay, let’s go then.”

The match is about to begin.
Not only have the contestants already arrived in the arena, but the audience has also entered the auditorium from the audience passage.

It also includes the guests of the Young Phoenix King Cup, who came one by one to the stage.

The guests included representatives of the Shanghai City Trainers Association and the sponsor, Shuguang Group.
Among them, more than a dozen people were involved in various industries.

“Student Lu, I didn’t expect you to come too.”

Among the guests, there was a young man who looked particularly young and was chatting and laughing with everyone.
When everyone saw him, they would come over and talk politely.

“Yes, this time there is a little junior girl from our dojo who came to compete.
I just came to take a look.”

“Oh? I’ve heard about it a long time ago.
Tianxin Dojo has accepted an apprentice with Psychic talent.
It turned out to be true.”

“I would trouble you to introduce her to us later.”

“Definitely.” The young man replied.

Tianxin Dojo was one of the several places where superpowered humans in China were concentrated.
It is not difficult to tell from the words of the youth that this time the Young Phoenix King Cup also has a superpower participating.

…

On the other side, Fang Yuan and Lin Jing also came to the contestan’s room.

There were not many people here.
Most of the contestants went to the contestant platform outside to watch the excitement.
Those who stayed here either prefer quietness or don’t care about the outside world.

Fang Yuan was neither, because he promised Lin Jing yesterday that he would let her hug Eevee today…

This was the real reason why the two came here.

When he arrived in the contestant’s room, Fang Yuan took out the Pokeball and released Eevee.
Eevee was still at a loss, but the next moment, it was picked up by Lin Jing with joy.

“It’s so cute…”

Lin Jing kept rubbing Eevee’s hair,

She asked: “Eevee has no fighting power, how did you get into the main competition?”

“Vee…”

Being held in this way by Lin Jing and suspected of its strength, Eevee quickly turned to look at Fang Yuan and asked what was going on.

“Through strength.” Fang Yuan smiled, and told Eevee to calm down.

“By the way, why don’t you let the Growlithe out too, I want to see the Growlithe too.”

“This…” Lin Jing hesitated, and said awkwardly: “My Growlithe is a bit special and doesn’t like to contact strangers.
For the sake of your safety, let’s talk about it later.”

“Well, even my dad almost got knocked down when he tried to touch it.
It is only close to me now.”

“Such a personality…” Fang Yuan scratched his cheek: “In fact, it’s not a bad thing.
If it is like Eevee, it might be abducted someday.”

“Vee…”

Eevee showed a stupefied expression, but was powerless to retort: (´◔₃◔`)

More than once in Pingcheng, Eevee has been almost lost because of the fragrance of the roadside stalls.

It could be said that Fang Yuan was worried about it very much.
Sure enough, there was a drawback for the Pokemon to be outside.

“The match is about to begin.
Contestants in Group A, please prepare in advance.”

“Repeat it again, the match is about to…”

It didn’t take long for the broadcast in each contestant’s room to sound, and Fang Yuan and Lin Jing looked at the time, indeed the matches were about to start.

“Let’s go out and have a look.” Fang Yuan said.

“The seed player in Group A, I think, was the trainer with the Scyther.
I want to see his fighting style and make preparations in advance…”

Lin Jing  looked at Fang Yuan with widened eyes.

“He is in Group A and you are in Group D.
Even if you can meet, it is at least eight to four…”

Fang Yuan nodded seriously.

Young Phoenix King Cup rookie trainer match, the race officially starts at 8 am!

In the first stage of the qualifiers, many contestants were eliminated and 128 rookie trainers were selected.

Most of these people came from various key high schools of Shanghai, and a few came from schools in several nearby cities, but next, they would compete on the same stage together.

In the first game, the No.
1 player in Group A played against the No.
2 player in Group A.
　　Both sides of the battle were both fairly standard rookie trainers, and Fang Yuan’s visual observation was that they were the same level as Liu Le and Munchlax.

If he was allowed to deal with them, Eevee could end the game in less than half a minute with all its strength.

Don’t need to worry too much.

In the end, within two minutes, the first match was over.

“At this stage, the Pokemon’s ability to continue combat is not strong.
This is a good thing for Eevee and I,” Fang Yuan said.

In the second scene, Fang Yuan’s spirit was focused.
As a student with short-hair walked into the venue, the commentator began to introduce to everyone:

“Xie Ming, No.
4 in Group A, had very good results in the qualifiers.
In four matches, his Pokemon only used one or two moves to solve their opponents each time.
I don’t know how he will perform in the main match.”

“And his opponent is from…”

In the face of the seed player, Xie Ming’s opponents did not dare to underestimate the enemy, and his Pokemon Electrike had always been very cautious and careful.

All the players who entered the main match have made serious preparations for more than a month, so Xie Ming did not easily win the preliminaries.

“That Scyther is so fast…Even if it is disturbed by the Thunder waves of the Electrike , it could still maintain such a fast speed.
I really don’t know how he trained it…” Lin Jing said.

“It’s really fast, and the sickle seems to be very dangerous…” Fang Yuan pointed at the field with his mobile phone, preparing to record the battle.

The speed of its Quick Attack was already faster than that of Eevee.
It seems that the innate advantage cannot be easily compensated in  a short time.
This was still under the condition that they took the advantage of Salac Berry, but in terms of reaction speed, Eevee should win by a lot……
