Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

Lin Xuan was somewhat surprised. Although Song Chen did indeed intend to participate in the Jinhui City Martial Arts Tournament, he was essentially just passing through, not to mention that he had not even successfully registered.

If Song Chen hadn't been contacting Lin Xuan from time to time over the past few days, Lin Xuan would have suspected that he had already left Jinhui City. However, he still had doubts about what this guy was planning to do in Jinhui City.

Just for yourself?

That's definitely impossible. It's only possible if one of the two genders is switched, then she would definitely be the female lead in an elf story, right?

Unfortunately, this possibility doesn't seem to exist in Lin Xuan's worldview.

After sending that first comment, Song Chen disappeared without a trace. Lin Xuan could only shrug and say she'd talk to him again later.

Now, it's match time.

As the referee waved the flag, the match officially began.

"Clearly, even Senior Sister Bai Yao dared not underestimate her opponent in the final semi-finals, and sent out her strongest Cong Youbing."

Xu Chuang's Pokémon can only be Mighty without a doubt. His other Pokémon would only be easy prey against Bai Yao, and only Mighty would give him a slight chance of winning.

However, this kind of victory only occurs when the trainers' command abilities differ significantly, and Bai Yao and Xu Chuang...

Lin Xuan felt that Xu Chuang was already doing quite well in this respect, as long as he wasn't completely overwhelmed.

That's why it's said that this was a match with almost no suspense.

"Any bosses want to bet on Superpower to win? Getting rich quick is just around the corner! Who knows, maybe there will be an upset? If so, I'll open the betting window for you guys!"

[? ? ? ]

Even at a time like this, you still can't resist ripping people off. Typical of you.

[Your words no longer carry any weight in this live stream.]

[I still vividly remember being scammed out of twenty coins a few days ago.]

[Gone! Not a single coin left! Even if I don't watch dozens of your videos for free, I still can't make up for this loss!]

[Dozens of videos? Is it possible for Mimikyu-sensei to be that prolific?]

Clearly, Lin Xuan's words were immediately met with a barrage of criticism from the screen, prompting Liu Quan, who hesitated before leaning closer to Lin Xuan and asking:

"What did you do that angered both heaven and man?"

[Hahahaha!]

[As expected of my senior brother, he saw through the essence of the matter at a glance.]

[The things that Teacher Mimiqiu did can't even be described as 'outrageous to both heaven and man's eyes'.]

Having just been betrayed by a viewer and then stabbed in the back by Liu Quan, Lin Xuan couldn't keep his composure. He glared at Liu Quan, unsure whether pulling him aside was the right decision.

However, after seeing the genuinely puzzled look in his senior's eyes, Lin Xuan was convinced.

So, are all the people at Jinhui Martial Arts Academy, except for Luo Guan who's a cunning old fox, really that naive? Doesn't that make me seem like a bad person?

"It's nothing, just some old news. Let's get back to the game."

Lin Xuan once again chose to forcefully turn the page on the matter.

"The opponent's Machamp used Bulk Up immediately. It was obvious that he also felt that without Bulk Up, he would not be a match for Sirfetch'd in terms of strength. Sirfetch'd did not hold back and directly launched a Leaf Blade! But Machamp did not seem to have any intention of dodging. He was determined to finish Bulk Up even if he had to withstand the Leaf Blade."

After Lin Xuan finished speaking, Luo Guan, who was standing to the side, thought for a moment and added:

"Bodybuilding is obviously not a good choice when using Sirfetch'd in the team, since Sirfetch'd is characterized by being able to hit vital points. Once a vital point is hit, no amount of defense improvement will help."

Lin Xuan nodded. Bodybuilding was indeed a skill with a very low cost-effectiveness at this time, but there was no other way.

"There's no other way. If we don't use bodybuilding, even Superhuman strength can't compare."

Lin Xuan nodded, agreeing with Liu Quan's words.

"However, the opposing player may not have considered one thing: the power of Sergeant Farfetch'd's Leaf Blade might exceed his expectations."

"Mmmmmmm!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xuan immediately nodded frantically in agreement. Even though he had now found a tactic to counter Cong Youbing, he would never take his attacks head-on; that would be suicide.

Chapter 344 Another Battle Against Liu Quan

Seeing Bai Yao's scallion soldiers rushing directly towards Xu Chuang's monstrous strength, Lin Xuan and Liu Quan immediately made a judgment about the upcoming collision.

Even if he could catch that Leaf Blade, and even if he did, and considering his Bodybuilding ability, he would most likely still be no match for Farfetch'd in terms of strength.

Both of them had a clear understanding of Bai Yao's strength as a mere guerrilla soldier.

Liu Quan's knowledge of Cong Youbing goes without saying; he's been beaten up countless times. Although he has a chance of winning, he seems to have almost never actually succeeded.

As for Lin Xuan, although he has only fought Bai Yao a handful of times, he has a wealth of real-world combat data to analyze.

Moreover, they are all taken from recent matches, and the vast majority of them are quite reliable.

Lin Xuan's main purpose in paying attention to this battle was to confirm his own progress over this period of time, so that he wouldn't have spent so much time researching only to find that Bai Yao's Cong Youbing had improved significantly.

Although this is unlikely, after all, once you reach the level of Onion Warrior, it's not so easy to improve your strength again.

Zhong Mingyi, who can own a five-star level Pokémon during his university years, is an exceptional case among exceptional cases. Even at Imperial University and Shanghai University, in the past few years, there has actually only been one Zhong Mingyi.

Moreover, judging from the current strength of the younger generation, Lin Xuan is the most likely to achieve this, and may even do so earlier than Zhong Mingyi.

This isn't just speculation from outsiders; even within the league, there are quite a few people who share this view.

After all, Lin Xuan's potential is undeniable. In such a short period of time, his strength has improved step by step, from first place in the freshman competition, first place in the college league, and now he has the strength to compete for first place in the provincial competition.

Their strength has made a terrifying three-level leap; so far, it seems that only one other person besides Lin Xuan has ever done it.

As for that person, he was currently sitting in his office at the Alliance headquarters, yawning as he looked at the mountain of documents in front of him.

"If the superhuman strength can't withstand it, the bodybuilder will probably be interrupted as well."

Just as the Onion Soldiers approached, Lin Xuan said this again, and even Liu Quan, who was standing to the side, looked at him with a somewhat surprised expression.

They had all agreed that the superhuman strength couldn't withstand the leaf blade, but as for the bodybuilding being interrupted... Liu Quan didn't dare to make such a direct judgment.

"Is it really that bad? Since Xu Chuang dared to use Bodybuilding in front of Cong Youbing, it proves that he still has some confidence, and his Super Strength defense isn't particularly bad."

After hesitating for a moment, Liu Quan said that it wasn't that he thought Farfetch'd was weak, but that the difference in strength between the two Pokémon wasn't that great in his opinion.

But in the short time it took to speak, the result was revealed. Just as Lin Xuan had said, the monstrous strength that had been standing there like a small mountain was completely powerless against the blades of the Onion Wanderer and was directly cut away.

This scene completely stunned everyone in the live stream.

Wow, is it really that violent?

[Won't there be a one-hit kill situation in the semifinals?]

I had been hoping for Mimikyu, but now... I guess I'll just have to hope it doesn't lose too badly.

Farfetch'd's strength clearly shocked everyone present. Although Mighty was knocked away, he quickly got back up and wasn't instantly killed, but the collision just now revealed a clue.

For Congyoubing, defeating this monster was as easy as a father beating his son.

With just one Leaf Blade, the monstrous strength was severely injured.

As for Liu Quan, he was stunned at first when he saw this scene, but he quickly realized what was happening and a bitter smile appeared on his lips.

"Has this guy improved this much in this period of time?"

He had faced Xu Chuang in the provincial competition before, so he had some understanding of Xu Chuang's strength. He thought that although Bai Yao would definitely win, it would take some time. He didn't expect it to be so decisive.

"If Bai Yao had used Meteor Strike just now, would the game have already ended?"

This time, Liu Quan directly asked Lin Xuan. Although he didn't know how Lin Xuan had been able to see the hidden difference in strength between the two Pokémon in such a short time, it was enough to prove that Lin Xuan's understanding in this area was superior to his own.

Liu Quan was a humble and eager learner, so he didn't care that this person was his junior brother.

"Yes, I guess so."

Without holding back, Lin Xuan nodded firmly, his expression very serious.

Bai Yao's Shallot has improved its strength again, which means that Gallade will be more difficult to deal with. In that case, will the counter tactics I thought of before still be useful?

Lin Xuan was thinking about these things. The so-called restraint only works when the strength is close. But if the strength difference is too great, let alone restraint, even a fairy-type Pokémon can still kill you with a meteor shower.

Without its own Aura power, Gallade is indeed quite different from Sirfetch'd in terms of raw strength, and even with Sirfetch'd's boost, it might still be no match for him.

This is the most troublesome part; it seems like the problem has no solution.

But at that moment, Liu Quan asked Lin Xuan a question that many viewers in the live stream wanted to ask.

"So you really didn't realize that Mighty couldn't withstand that Leaf Blade attack at all."

"You can tell."

Liu Quan:......

Lin Xuan's words completely baffled Liu Quan. "Isn't that obvious? If you didn't see it, how could you have heard it?"

The viewers in the live stream, however, remained relatively calm, and some even began to offer advice to Liu Quan.

[Calm down, calm down, Teacher Mimikyu doesn't usually speak like a human.]

That's right, we've been used to it for a long time.

[After all, there's nothing you can do if you're not used to it.]

Why does it still sound like such a sad thing?
