Chapter 206 Ryukiya, You've Picked the Wrong Opponent
Inside the magnificent stadium in Liuli City, the audience in the bustling stands could not hide their excitement and were discussing among themselves.
"To be able to watch two of Ryukia's performances in one day, I must have been struck by Groudon's Cliff Sword and gone to heaven after I died."
"That's impossible. Someone who stuffs Pepsi into a Coca-Cola bottle and tricks people into drinking it, dreams of going to heaven?"
"Anyone who can compete with Ryukia must be a Grand Contest Master."
"It's hard to say. I heard that the other side is a newly debuted trainer who doesn't have a single ribbon."
"Without ribbons, he's not even a coordinator. What makes him think he can compete with Ryukiya?"
"Marie, you're a trainer, what do you think Wei Xin's chances of winning are?" Professor Mulan asked from the audience, not wanting Wei Xin to lose face in Hoenn.
Marie thought for a moment: "The Contest is different from the usual battles between trainers. I've never participated in one, so I'm not sure."
Just like trainers, they are also divided into NPC level, Gym Leader level, Elite Four level, and Champion level.
Coordinators are divided into noobs and masters based on the number of ribbons they have. Ryukia, who was trained by Mikoli, Naki, and Adam, obtained five ribbons at the age of junior high school and won the crown in the Grand Contest Master Finals, is undoubtedly a master in Grand Contests.
As for the online rumor of "My Grandmaster Uncle Mikoli", it is absolutely nonsense. Rather, it is said that in order to ensure the fairness of the Grand Contest he created, Rukia's Grand Contest journey was full of difficulties. As a family member contestant, she was always made difficult by her uncle and master during the review process.
It was like walking on thin ice.
Only her aunt doted on her.
"So, little Ryukiya, remember to go easy on him during the match later, don't let Mr. Weixin lose too badly." In the contestant preparation room, Naki patiently advised from the side. She really couldn't stand these dead straight men. He had just saved Hoenn, and you guys dragged him over to play in the Grand Contest, a decisive battle.
If they lose, they'll lose face for Hoenn; if they win, they'll have a hard time explaining it to the Eastern Empire.
At least they put on a show, staged a fake match, and then gave the other party a ribbon, all to maintain relations between the two regions. It's not shameful at all.
Ugly, extremely ugly!
Ryukia disagreed, her attitude firm: "Auntie, you didn't hear what he said from the audience earlier. He said that our Hoenn's Coordinator is not as good as him."
Liu Qiya held the air in her arms and said confidently, "This concerns my future, Aunt. Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
Moreover, as a master-level coordinator, a mere Eastern Emperor trainer is no match for him.
...
In the other player's preparation room, to prevent Wei Xin from losing too badly, Mikoli and Adam, who were acting as temporary coaches, stared wide-eyed.
"Are you sure your Sylveon hasn't participated in any Contests?" Adam asked in surprise as he watched Sylveon perform a dance with graceful, flowing movements, demonstrating amazing control over her body.
Most importantly, the two have a tacit understanding, as if Wei Xin and Sylveon are sharing a brain. As soon as Wei Xin speaks, Sylveon begins to act, and every command is executed perfectly, showing a perfect understanding between them.
Wei Xin didn't even need to open his eyes. From the moment he stepped into the contestant preparation room, his gaze never left the Grand Contest Basic Guide. He was essentially giving Sylveon instructions with his eyes closed.
This level is almost on par with the two of them.
Is it open yet?
Yes, it's open.
"Mia!" After finishing a dance and warming up before the competition, Sylveon skipped lightly to Wei Xin and clung to him, pleading for encouragement.
"Well done." Wei Xin closed the guidebook in his hand and hugged Sylveon in his arms.
Even when it was still an Eevee, the little guy already had a certain foundation. It could use Quick Attack to knock away its opponent and then return to its original position. It could also dance. Although it would occasionally lose control of its body due to physical reasons, after conditioning, it evolved into Sylveon. Its body's potential was fully unleashed. In addition, having seen big scenes, there was no need to worry about it failing due to mental issues.
Furthermore, by using his own perception generated through the power of waveguides, he connected and guided, producing a wonderful effect.
For example, when other trainers say "dodge," the Pokémon will randomly dodge in one direction. But when Wei Xin says "dodge," Sylveon can accurately step into the position Wei Xin selects. Even its antennae can obey his command. Coupled with its special ability to see the movements of opponents in the sky, it is practically like having a god's-eye view and giving precise commands.
Moreover, compared to the large-scale battles of ordinary Pokémon battles, the Grand Contest slightly reduces the tactical requirements and focuses more on performance and subtle operations, which is exactly what Wei Xin is best at now.
His previous words were truly modest. Now, he is undoubtedly a born contestant in the Grand Tournament. He even worries that if Liuqiya, after ten years of arduous training, loses to him, her Dao heart might be shattered.
Who cares, Tongzi, let's play some background music.
After a long while, the audience's anticipation reached its peak, and some even became restless.
"Why haven't you started yet?"
"Could it be that they were scared away?"
"Shui Lian, what do you think?"
"I'll sit and watch. Mao, do you want some popcorn? It's a pity Lillie can't watch the live broadcast; she'll probably regret it terribly afterwards."
"What's wrong with Lillie?" Gladio asked.
Shui Lian glanced at the oblivious Gladio, sighed helplessly, and patted his shoulder: "You'll understand when you grow up."
Gladio: "???"
"Look, someone's coming up on stage!" Dr. Kukui exclaimed excitedly, pointing to the stage.
The lights in the venue suddenly dimmed, the spotlight shifted, focusing on the pool in the center of the stage, and Naki appeared above the stage, holding a microphone and riding a Qixi Bluebird:
"Good evening, everyone. I'm very happy that you can come and watch this wonderful impromptu exhibition match tonight. I'm your commentator for tonight, the Flying-type Gym Leader, Naki."
"Next, let's welcome our other two guests tonight: Mr. Michael, the founder of the Grand Contest, and his mentor, Mr. Adam, who is known as an elegant gentleman."
Click!
In an instant, the mechanism beneath the pool in the center of the stage activated, and two Milotic emerged from the hole, crossing over each other and exhaling white mist towards the sky. Their tails traced a heart shape, and their colorful scales shone brilliantly under the lights. The splashes of water falling into the pool created a rainbow in the center of the pool, while snowflakes drifted down from the sky.
The stunning performance and visuals captivated the audience in the venue.
In the silence, two Milotics spun in the pool, and from the whirlpool, water columns rose and exploded.
Amidst the splashing white waves, two figures vaguely appeared. As the waves subsided, Mikoli, dressed in green with a slender figure and delicate features, and Adam, dressed in a blue trench coat with splashed patterns and a robust build, appeared on the stage. They opened their arms, smiled at the audience, bowed, and placed their hands on their chests in a gesture of respect.
The spectacular performance plunged the venue into a deathly silence for a moment. Suddenly, a snap of fingers was heard from somewhere. Instantly, the audience erupted like a volcano, screams reaching their peak, a deafening roar and shouts that filled the air.
"Mr. Michael, I'm your fan!!!"
"I will always love Mr. Adam!!!"
As the audience's passion reached its peak, Naki reached out her hand to the audience and clenched it tightly. The stadium fell silent, as if a mute button had been pressed.
"Next, let me introduce our two contestants for tonight's Grand Contest. First up is our Hoenn region's Grand Contest champion, a master-level idol, Miracle Rukia!"
The stage opened in the center, and accompanied by her own theme song, Ryukiya appeared in the center of the stage, wearing a blue starry crop top and short skirt with white cotton coverings on her hands and neck.
"Sparkling and incredibly cool."
After a set of classic performance moves, he winks at the audience and gives a playful smile.
"Welcome everyone to enjoy Ryukiya's special performance."
In an instant, cheers erupted throughout the guild hall.
"She's really popular." In the studio, after Ryukia's opening performance ended, Rotom inserted the USB drive into the console.
"Unfortunately, you chose the wrong opponent."
The next second, all the lights in the venue went out instantly, and the venue fell silent.
Everyone is puzzled.
"What's wrong? Is the light broken?"
Naki hurriedly contacted the studio, but no one responded. Amidst the confusion and silence, the song Unstoppable started playing. Soon after, the stage lights came on at the edge of the stage, drawing everyone's attention. Wei Xin, dressed in a black suit and wearing black sunglasses, appeared under the lights, leading Sylveon and walking towards the stage, his feet stepping on tiny sparks and accompanied by a deep female voice.
I greeted them with a smile and a polite gesture.
[Feigning joy all day long—because the time isn't right.]
"What's going on?" Liu Qiya blinked blankly, feeling confused but impressed. "Where's the newbie I was promised? How come they even have background music?"
Everyone held their breath and watched as the flames beneath Wei Xin's feet grew larger with each step he took, and the lights in front of him lit up one after another, like silver armor draped over him and Sylveon. Blue and pink butterflies danced side by side, accompanied by a gradually rising song, until the two reached the very center of the stage.
In the suffocating atmosphere and oppressive silence, Wei Xin removed his sunglasses, and with his ignited golden pupils, sparks flew across the stage, instantly setting the atmosphere ablaze.
An invisible pressure swept through the entire venue, pinning everyone to their feet. In the audience, Mary chuckled and, accompanied by the music, softly murmured, "He is unstoppable, invincible, and unbeatable."
