Chapter 674 Teacher Lu's home visit! The end of the Hezhong trip
Under the spotlight, the semi-finals of the World Championship Youth Cup are about to begin.
There is still half an hour until the official match.
Manchang stood in front of the guest lounge door and took a deep breath as if he had the courage to do so.
It's been three days since I came to Longmu Town... I still haven't talked to Teacher Lu.
Every time I see him surrounded by people, I want to go up and ask if he still remembers me, but there are so many students who want to come to Teacher Lu...
Just like Dr. Ohki...he clearly remembered that I helped take care of Mu Shou Palace, but in the end he gave Mu Shou Palace to others...
Those memories flashed away, and Manchong, with his silky green hair hanging down, tugged on his shoulder straps and prepared to go backstage to prepare for the semi-finals later.
At this time, the door was pushed open and a ray of light appeared, and the head of the water arrow turtle wearing sunglasses poked out.
"Blastoise?" Manchong said softly.
"Kah." The water arrow turtle nodded slightly.
I found someone peeping at the door and almost blasted it out with a water cannon... Come in if you have anything to say!
"You, you know me? I am, Yuhong Academy, um... Teacher Lu's student." Manchong was incoherent.
"What?" The water arrow turtle was a little strange.
I can even tell it using a waveguide...how could my lord not be able to tell it!
Manchong's eyes sparkled slightly, he nodded solemnly and said: "Sorry, sorry!"
"Neither Manchi nor Shinji came to see you?" Sirona said with her back to the door, sitting on the sofa and her legs crossed.
Lu Ye sat on the single sofa on the right, looking at Sirona facing the door, and said:
"Shinji is busy exchanging technology with Ash."
"I met Manchong by chance a few times, but he always avoided me... Could it be that he thought I was too incompetent and didn't want to recognize me as his master?"
"You also know." Sirona laughed.
"It's impossible... I remember that this kid is also a antagonist." Lu Ye said in confusion.
Manchong didn't expect to hear the teacher talking about him, and a warm current flowed through his heart. He opened the door and whispered:
"Teacher Lu, Champion Sirona..."
The two of them looked at each other at the same time, full of fear and anticipation of returning to school to face Teacher Yan, and said nervously:
"I, I am Manchong. I heard that you are a guest at this competition, so... I came to meet you."
"Of course I know you are full!"
Teacher Lu smiled, stood up and looked at Manchong carefully, nodded and said: "Not bad... your body is much stronger."
"It's because the rehabilitation treatment is taking effect." He smiled shyly: "Also, Elureduo also helped me a lot."
"Why did you just think of coming to see me today?"
"I, I thought..."
Seeing Manchong's hesitant expression, Lu Ye patted Manchong on the shoulder and said:
"Let's not talk about this anymore. In the next battle, perform well!"
"The significance of Pokémon battles does not lie in victory or defeat, but in interpreting the trainer's philosophy and Pokémon's emotions through battles."
Lu Ye crossed his arms and said with a smile: "Of course, it would be even better if I could win."
Listening to the familiar and kind teachings, Manchong nodded vigorously, and then whispered:
"I want to prove to Dr. Ohki, Master Qianli and others... that even I can become an excellent trainer..."
"Teacher Lu!" Manchong raised his serious eyes, "Please witness the battle between me and Elle Duo!"
For Michiru, who was born in an ordinary family, Ruby has always been a "child of the owner of the museum", so he lives with a weak self-esteem and in the shadow of others.
But Lu Ye knew very well that this young man had a strong heart. In the game, in order to make up for the shortage of resources and catch up with Yushu, Manchuria pathologically pursued hatching eggs, matching moves and individual values.
But in fact, the so-called individual value is meaningless in front of faith... After all, Pachlitz can become a world champion.
‘Bond’ is the eternal theme of Pokémon battles.
Lu Ye was very happy to see that Manchong could find his own path and take Eluredo as his partner to grow together.
"Don't rush to talk big yet." Lu Ye said, "I won't blame you if you lose. Just enjoy the battle."
"I understand." Manchong said cautiously, "And... Teacher Lu, if I win, can I invite you to my home?"
"My parents have always wanted to thank you...and Master Qianli. I think you two will definitely have a lot in common in the field of combat!"
The owner of Chisato Hall is Ruby's father and Manchi's neighbor. He is a strong man who rides the empty seat in "Special Red/Sapphire". His strength is said to be close to the level of a championship.
Lu Ye was in a delicate mood.
I don’t know if I’m full of parental feelings or not…but Chisato and I definitely have nothing in common!
Lu Ye: "It's okay to be a guest...but where is your home?"
"Fengyuan area, Green Town!" he said hopefully.
Lu Ye said "Oh" and looked at the sky: "There is no problem in terms of time..."
However, are there any precautions in the Fengyuan area?
Forget it... so what if we go there for a day or two? Could it be that a volcano happens to erupt and the seawater pours in?
"No problem." Lu Ye put his arm around Manchong's shoulders and said, "It depends on your performance!"
Fully nodded vigorously, thanked him and left the backcourt to prepare for the next semi-finals.
Lu Ye returned to the sofa and sat down. Sirona handed over an orange fruit and glanced at it: "What are you doing?"
"I want peeled oranges."
Lu Ye sat upright and spoke in a deliberation tone.
Sirona thought for a moment, then stretched out her pink nails to dig open the orange fruit, and leaned forward with a smile: "Here."
"Ah" Lu Ye opened his mouth, then was stunned: "Why did you feed it to Gengar?"
"Koujie~(￣~￣)" Gengar held it in his two little hands and chewed it.
"You can also feed it to the biting land shark." Sirona said proudly.
Lu Ye glanced behind the sofa and saw Liebite Lu Shark with an impatient expression on his face.
"Crack..."
I'm so tired of showing off my affection in front of my mother every day!
Lu Ye wisely opened a piece of orange fruit by himself, and after thinking about it, he handed it to Sirona, who smiled back with a beautiful and slightly naughty smile.
At this time, the door of the lounge was knocked again, and Lu Ye sighed softly:
“The security at the conference is also very poor.”
"Maybe it's your student in the backcourt again?"
Sirona's prediction came true.
Shinji stood outside the door with dead eyes.
"Lu...Teacher Lu, please allow me to call you this."
Shinji put his hands in his trouser pockets, took them out again, crossed his arms, and said:
"Thank you very much for your guidance. Between bonding and fighting, there is always a compromise and the right way to do it."
"No matter what...Teacher Lu."
Shinji raised his gaze, "I will regard you as the direction of my pursuit, and then I will completely crush Xiaozhi."
"Just wait and see!"
After a monologue, Shinji turned around and left in an impolite and awkward manner. Sirona put her hands on her knees and smiled:
"It's really that child's temper..."
"Much better than some of our rivals." Lu Ye said with emotion, "Let's go, the semi-finals are about to begin!"
**
In the semi-finals of the Youth Cup, Manchong will face Xiaozhi in the first match, and the rules are 3V3.
Contrary to everyone's expectations, Pikachu, who was favored before the game, was completely crushed by the fully charged Elledor.
Pikachu fully told everyone what a "famous actor" is, and once again showed the "kayak" state during the BW period.
"Pickup!"
After being hit by Elledo's hand knife, Pikachu staggered and spun three times, and finally turned out of his "circle eyes", fell to the ground and groaned:
"Pikachu..."
"Pikachu!" Xiaozhi exclaimed and rushed forward, picked up Pikachu,
Pikachu glanced at Xiaozhi with half-open eyes, and weakly shouted: "Pikapi..."
"Pikachu has tried his best...still can't win?" Ash gritted his teeth.
I should practice harder so as not to embarrass Teacher Lu and Master Qinglu!
Lu Ye was sitting in the guest seat with black lines on his head; Sirona looked sideways and said unexpectedly:
"Ash's Pikachu seems to be out of shape?"
"This is the norm."
Lu Ye had already started thinking about visiting the Fengyuan area and casually said:
"It was Pikachu who lifted Xiaozhi to a height that did not belong to him."
The fully charged Elledor won consecutive battles, and after defeating Xiaozhi's Vine Snake again, he was unstoppable.
Lu Ye was in a delicate mood.
Vine Snake, Minase, and Fried Pig... none of Ash's three members in Hezhong have evolved to the third stage. With these team members, it's hard not to play Pikachu!
Of course, the essence of a trainer is ‘double standards’.
His own Togepi is very strong before it evolves, and has no desire to evolve, so Teacher Lu is happy to maintain the mode of 'bringing up babies'.
The little dinosaur is different... In order to defeat the Blizzard King and evolve into Shakiras, if you are stuck in the second stage and do not evolve
Then I won't be able to work, which is a very sad thing.
By the way, Baofulei is ineffective against pupa-shaped Pokémon such as 'Ironcoat, Ironshell, Carapace, and Shakiras'... You can imagine the reason.
The last elf sent by Xiaozhi is the gangster Crocodile, who is the leader of Hezhong. Compared with the original plot, it evolved earlier and fought fiercely with Elledo for a long time.
In the end, Rogue Crocodile defeated Elledo, and Manchong sent out the second Poison Rose to win.
Poison Rose is as timid as Manchong and has been unwilling to evolve; Manchong has no intention of forcing it to evolve.
At the Quartz Conference, there was a trumpet bud that could "know kung fu". It appeared to be more powerful without evolution. This case was also mentioned by Teacher Lu to Manchong.
After defeating Xiaozhi 3:1, Manchu wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at the judges' table with hope.
Lu Ye returned his gaze, smiled and nodded.
Manchi's progress is extremely obvious. Even though he is still far behind Lubi, he is already a trainer in his own right.
As for Xiaozhi... he deserves to lose!
Even Emperor Xiu in the Hezhong region could lose, but Lu Ye didn't dare to tell Qinglu about this, otherwise Qinglu would have high blood pressure!
It’s okay if the trainer from Zhenxin Town didn’t become the champion of the tournament. After all, the person he encountered in the Suzuran Tournament was Mr. Lu who was a ‘Dimensionality Reduction Strike’, so it was understandable.
However, using nanny bugs with poor race values, such as Slippery Boy, it is impossible to reach the level, which shows that Xiaozhi's trainer level is not yet high.
I still need to experience a few more areas!
"Do you promise to be a guest in Fengyuan?" Sirona said softly.
"Don't be in a hurry. Let's go back to Miare City first." Lu Ye said.
Teacher Lu plans to seriously consider the issue of flying tools.
Regarding flying tools, obviously you have to ask the ‘Dragon Heavenly King’ Yulongdu… Phew!
Lu Ye thought of this title, suppressed a smile, covered his mouth and coughed lightly.
I heard from Adu that the alliance will provide professional Pokémon for prosecutors, inspectors, etc. For example, the Charizard vehicle in the Alola region and the flying taxi in the Galar region.
Based on my relationship with the Alliance and Interpol, I should be able to apply for a quota.
If possible, Teacher Lu would like to raise a 'Wings of Dawn' steel-armored crow...
Because it is big and handsome, and its wings are so wide that it is not afraid of falling. It is really a ‘love bird in dreams’!
"Next, let's invite the top four contestants from Group B!" the host said.
Xiaozhi was not discouraged by losing to Manchuria...because he had already lost enough in Hezhu.
Manchong mentioned his mentor's name again in the interview, and his eyes were shining. People couldn't help but think of the relationship between "coach and player", and felt emotion and respect.
Group B is a duel between Shinji and Alice.
Adek crossed his arms, holding his messy red hair, with a serious face.
This battle is even related to the future champion of the United League...
A biting cold wind blew from the snowy peaks at the far end of Longmu Town.
There, heavy snow flooded the Giant's Cave, and there were traces of Teacher Lu's command of Reshiram's fierce battle.
In the open-air sub-venue of Gongmei Town, Shinji put one hand in his pocket and whispered:
"You are strong, I can feel it...but I advise you to give up the idea of becoming a champion as soon as possible, because it is just a dream."
Shinji also thought he would become the champion of Sinnoh. However, he challenged Sirona and the Pyramid Pharaoh Gods, but failed in both battles.
He heard about Alice's ideal, and that ideal was vulnerable to reality.
"How will you know if you don't try!"
Alice's dark skin exuded vitality, and her resolute little face, with dark pupils shining brightly, said with a smile:
"I am different from others...because I am a genius, I will shoulder the future of more people!"
There was a commotion in the audience, and Shaka from Shuangyong City stared at the broadcast screen, his eyes flashing.
Your progress amazes me... Alice.
And this growth is definitely not groundless, it is closely related to the trainers and Pokémon around you.
The camera happened to show the black-haired young man at the guest table. A Victini was lying on his black hair, and he made a V-sign cutely towards the camera. Lu Ye raised his eyes and looked at the camera, and also made a perfunctory V-sign.
.
A series of ‘2333’ were played in the barrage
"Forced to open for business."
"Teacher Lu, if you are kidnapped, just blink!"
In Shuangyong City, Shaka stared at the broadcast screen.
It is precisely because of the example of this champion... On the frozen night in Shuangyong City, a seed of champion sprouted in Alice's heart.
Shinji seemed to be moved by Alice's words.
Absolute confidence, absolute trust in Pokémon... Shinji said coldly:
"boring."
"Electricize the monster, use thunder, and kill that fast dragon!"
"Use Dragon God Dive to avoid it!"
Alice's dragon looked ferocious, the muscles on its face tensed up instantly, and its wings swept the airflow and dived in the air.
Shinji suddenly saw the figure of Sirona biting the land shark, and said in a deep voice: "Thunder Palm!"
Bang!!
The electric shock beast's two palms surged with lightning, trying to resist the diving dragon, but the powerful collision force knocked it back!
"Kuailong, use flame jet!"
Kuailong didn't listen to Alice's command at all. He withstood the electric current emanating from the electrodes on the back of the electric shock monster, and punched the electric shock monster with a ferocious face!
Bang!
The electric monster used a thunder fist to catch Kuailong's million-ton punch, and Shinji said coldly:
"No matter how big your words are, you can't make Kuailong completely obey the command!"
"No...no need to give instructions, because this kid and I have the same mind!"
Alice's eyes were clear, her hands were clenched in a prayer position, and her clothes and purple braid were swaying in the wind.
The talent inherited from Dragon Land, Dragon Heart!
"What...what." Shinji's face stiffened.
It doesn’t matter if Xiaozhi’s Flame Monkey knows how to cheat, you, the trainer, are not legal!
Could it be that I, as Teacher Lu’s student, haven’t learned the lesson yet?
The real secret is not tactics, but illegal routines!?
Under the induction of Alice's "Dragon Heart", Kuailong burst out with amazing combat power and defeated Shinji's electric monster.
Later, Shinji used Tutai Turtle to forcibly exchange with Kuailyu.
The final dragon king scorpion defeated Yaya and fell in front of Alice's dragon-headed gopher.
"3:2." The referee said: "Victor, Alice!"
"Great!" Alice cheered with a sunny smile.
Shinji put his hands in his pockets and looked down at the swaying Poké Ball. Boss Cordora was probably depressed because he couldn't play, and Aplysia seemed to be comforting himself.
For a moment, Shinji felt the emotional connection between himself and the Pokémon, lowered his head and murmured:
"Yeah...this is what Teacher Lu said, the meaning of emotion."
The corner of Shinji's mouth curled up, and he didn't say goodbye to anyone. Amidst the cheers for Alice, he turned and left the venue.
"Shinji!"
Shinji turned his head and looked back at Xiaozhi, who was catching up out of breath. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Want to fight?"
"No, I mean..."
Xiaozhi grinned: "Let's go to Kalos together! Teacher Lu said that there are new bonds and moves there, and maybe we will become stronger!"
Shinji stared at Xiaozhi silently for a while, put his pocket in his pocket and turned to leave.
"I became stronger, not you."
"Also." Shinji paused, "Help me say thank you to Teacher Lu and Champion Sirona. I probably understand the meaning of Champion Sirona's words."
"Which sentence?"
"Life and life...forget it, you don't understand. See you later."
Shinji's back gradually faded away.
Lu Ye put his hands on the railing on the second floor and leaned forward; Sirona stood beside him with a curious face.
"I thought they were going to fight," Sirona said.
"I think so too." Lu Ye nodded: "Maybe the Pokémon was just injured, considering their condition?"
"This child has become stronger..." Sirona put her hand on her chin, her eyes flashing slightly.
"Of course."
Teacher Lu said without humility: "Because I taught you."
Sirona: "But Xiaozhi..."
Lu Ye: "Xiao Zhi was taught by Ah Jin, it's none of my business!"
**
Shinji voluntarily abstained and did not compete for third place with Ash.
After thinking about it, I felt that there was no need to fight against Xiaozhi with such strength.
The final competition for the championship and runner-up started between Alice and Manchang.
Even though Manchang used tactics, rotations, and command to the extreme, he still lost to Alice's Kuailong.
"The champion of this Youth Cup is born!"
Amid the cheers that filled the sky, the audience cheered, and Adek put the medal on Alice's hand.
"Who do you want to thank most?" Adek asked cheerfully.
Alice made a face: "It's not Grandpa Adek anyway!"
Adek felt a tightness in his chest, and the feeling of being stabbed by an arrow came to his heart again.
That's not right... I shouldn't be any worse than Lu Ye and Sirona in terms of personality charm!
After the game, Lu Ye leaned against the shadow of the players' tunnel and looked at Man Feng, who looked gloomy and had slumped shoulders.
"Teacher..." Manchong said with sobs.
"This is the way the world is."
Lu Ye said: "Efforts may be worthless in the face of talent, and there is an insurmountable gap between individuals and aristocratic families... But everyone has the right not to accept fate."
He was coughing rapidly, and severe bronchitis strangled his neck. He blushed and could hardly speak.
Lu Ye squatted down, tried to use the waveguide to relieve the symptoms of overcharging, and said seriously:
"Destiny is not equal, but it is fair. You can complain, you can fight, you can fail, but you cannot fall."
"Manchong, you are a trainer."
Crystal blue light flakes poured into Manchun's body, the redness on his face gradually receded, and Manchun calmed down his breathing.
In Teacher Lu's deep black eyes, he could see himself filled with unwilling tears.
"As long as he doesn't fall down," Lu Ye said, "trainers can create miracles."
The cheers from the outside world have nothing to do with Manchong.
Manchun looked up blankly at Teacher Lu who was standing up, and saw him raising a friendly smile.
"Let's go, I'll treat you to curry rice, and then we'll discuss the home visit!"
"It's not a home visit... I'm inviting you to be a guest." Manchong said in a low voice.
"It's the same, haha, I'll try my best to say something nice!"
The two figures disappeared into the player tunnel.
The cheers disappeared like an ebbing tide, and the voices gradually faded away.
The Youth Cup of the World Championship has officially come to an end.
…
…
In the chat group.
"Well...at my age, I should be able to participate in the Youth Cup, right?" Ah Jin crossed his arms and nodded from time to time.
"You can't even win in the pioneer zone, why are you still participating in the World Championships?" Xiao Yin said sarcastically.
"Hey, why are you speaking so hastily today?" Ah Jin yelled.
"Because today's tokusatsu drama has been postponed due to force majeure." Xiaolan cupped her chin and said, "It seems that there is unusual weather in Fengyuan."
"Extreme weather is too common in Hoyuan." Mr. Tiexuan laughed: "But it is also because of this that the tides and volcanic energy in Hoyuan are particularly developed!"
Teacher Lu: "Don't be like this...I still plan to travel to Fengyuan."
Wu Song said angrily: "After the Youth Cup, we still have to travel to Fengyuan?!"
"Isn't it the closing ceremony yet?" Lu Ye said with a smile: "By the way, you have a day off today? @武松."
"Today is Sunday." Wu Song said quietly.
"The closing ceremony hasn't happened yet, which means the finals have already been played," Daye said.
Sirona: "Yes, the champion is Alice."
"Oh?" A'Du said, "Congratulations."
Xiao Huang: "Warm congratulations!??ヽ(°▽°)ノ?"
"Hehe... It's actually good luck." Alice scratched her head and said, "When encountering a strong opponent, Kuailong is willing to listen to my command..."
"I saw Full.@Ruby in the Youth Cup," Shafiya said, "He became so strong!"
"He's already very talented," Ruby said proudly, "I even helped him catch Pokémon!"
The second-generation rival Jin Yin is a combination of mindless and unhappy.
Lu Bimanchang, the strong enemy of the third generation, is the overlord plot of "he runs, he chases"...
There are many unlucky children, and the level of tragedy can be compared with N.
Fortunately, he recovered significantly and resumed his career as a trainer.
I promised to go to Fengyuan for a "home visit" with enough money, which is expected to be next month.
Teacher Lu plans to return to Miare City first to prepare for the opening of the coffee shop and transportation.
After the closing ceremony, Xiaozhi stayed in Hezhong to prepare for the Hinoki Conference one week later.
Lu Ye got on a cute private jet.
"Are you going back to work in the Sinnoh Alliance?" Lu Ye looked at the yawning blonde beside him.
"Yeah..." Sirona stretched her waist lazily, "You can't always cause trouble to Wu Song."
This statement is not convincing at all!
Lu Ye looked at the sky and took stock of this trip to Hezhong, with a strange look on his face.
The vacation is almost a whole month...it's really hard for Wu Song.
