Pokémon: The Zen Trainer

"Mr. Kawauchi is right!!"

Zhu Dada, sitting in the last row, suddenly spoke.

"Besides, isn't Brother Xiang in this competition?"

"Brother Xiang will lead you to victory. As long as you team up with Brother Xiang, even a small Rattata will help you win. Just trust Brother Xiang!"

"Ok?"

Just as Bian was dozing off, he was suddenly jolted awake, looking at Zhu Dada with a righteous and indignant expression.

I was woken up by a phone call from Yazawa-sensei in the middle of the night last night, and now I'm going to get some rest.

Bian Xiang looked at Zhu Dada, who had been acting mysteriously before but was now suddenly speaking, and had a bad feeling that these three brothers were about to cause trouble again.

"Yes! That's right, Horita, you just need to do your best, and leave the rest to Sho-nii!"

Chu Guoguo continued.

"Yes!" Horita nodded firmly. "I was too pessimistic just now!"

Professor Kawauchi and Professor Zhu are right!

"With Brother Xiang here, what's there to be afraid of!"

Looking at Horita, I wondered why he hadn't listened to a word Kawauchi said.

Yazawa-sensei looked utterly dejected and clapped her hands to signal everyone to be quiet.

"Alright, let me announce the competition schedule."

"First, it's a battle of elimination in threes."

"Our lineup consists of Bian Xiang, Mami, and Shi Shouxin."

"Shi Shouxin is the vanguard, Ma Mei is the second, and Bian Xiang is the third."

"Next up is a five-on-five battle."

"The team members are Shi Shouxin, Bian Xiang, Mami, Matsumura, and Horita."

"I hope everyone can compete to their full potential and with style. That's all for now."

A group of people looked at Mr. Yazawa, who seemed utterly hopeless.

"Lose, huh?"

"They definitely lost; you can tell from their expressions."

Kawauchi glanced at Bianxiang and asked, "You went to rescue him yesterday?"

"Yes," he nodded as he thought about it.

"Yazawa-sensei lost so much yesterday that she didn't even have enough money for a taxi back."

"Hahaha, you deserve it."

Kawauchi couldn't help but laugh out loud when he heard this.

Full Gold Battle Hall.

The bus drove directly into the clubhouse and stopped by the passageway, while looking out the window at the staff.

Suddenly I saw a familiar figure.

Wuwen?

What is he doing here?

He frowned as he thought about it.

"Teacher, I need to go to the restroom."

After saying that, Bian Xiang jumped off the bus.

The monkey monster followed Bian Xiang and jumped down.

"The match is about to begin."

Before Kawauchi could finish speaking, Bian Xiang had already disappeared from sight.

“Sigh,” Kawauchi shook his head.

But it's not a big problem. I was thinking about the third one anyway, so as long as I catch up, it'll be fine.

Let's go inside first.

Upon entering the venue, the group was once again amazed by the equipment inside.

"There must be several thousand seats here, right?"

Matsumura looked at the seemingly endless expanse and said with some shock.

"Hmm, based on my experience, eight thousand!"

Shi Shouxin continued.

"The Manjin Hall can seat a total of 87,000 people if it is full."

Morimoto Rila looked at Ishi Shouxin and said.

"Eighty thousand???"

Shi Shouxin was astonished. He had never seen so many people in his life, and now they were going to compete here?

"Alright, Shouxin, Mami, let's go to the preparation area first."

"The rest of you are waiting in the stands."

Kawauchi looked at the remaining people and said.

After saying that, he led Shi Shouxin and Mami into the preparation channel.

"look!!"

Matsumura pointed to the distance and said.

"Is that Walnut?? Are there really people from the TV station there??"

Hu Tao is live-streaming in front of the camera.

"We are now at the match between Yuquan High School and Chunye High School. Next, I, Hu Tao, will bring you the live broadcast."

"This match is between Yuquan High School, the first-ranked high school league team, and Chunye High School, the fourth-ranked high school league team."

"Although it is a high school level league, it is quite entertaining. Yuquan High School has already achieved five consecutive victories in the previous matches, so let's see if Yuquan High School can continue its winning streak this time."

The group of people from Haruno looked in that direction.

"It really is!! It's Kurumi herself!!"

"She's even prettier in person, and it really was broadcast live on TV??"

"Heh, a bunch of bumpkins."

The students from Yuquan High School, including Haruno, walked past, looking at them with disdain.

"I bet they've never been to a venue like this before!"

"Haha, these people look so funny."

"The bellflower is really from the countryside."

"You country bumpkins from the countryside, I'll finish this in ten minutes and send you back to your village."

...

People from Yuquan kept passing by them.

The way they looked at each other carried a natural contempt.
