Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

"Take it back!"

Zhong Ming hurriedly said, but it was obviously too late. A large number of vines were still chasing after Xiao Dian, and it was too late to stop them now.

As for Little Point, he directly threw the two large balls of fire in his hands towards Venusaur, and even found an extremely tricky angle to use his body to block Venusaur's vines, preventing it from intercepting the fireballs.

Seeing the giant fireball hurtling towards it, Venusaur was helpless. At this moment, Thunder Cage seemed to be exhausting all its power and shining brightly.

As for the vines that chased after the small dot, despite Zhong Mingyi's instructions, they were ultimately a step too slow.

Logically speaking, given how close Xiaodian was to Venusaur's Z-Move, such a powerful burst attack would definitely affect him. Therefore, he followed Lin Xuan's advice—

It hid behind the vines that grew from the seeds of Venusaur.

Watching this scene, Song Chen, who had a semi-God's-eye view, couldn't help but twitch his lips. Lin Xuan's tactics had an extremely personal style, and in this matter, his senior brother was still inferior.

The flames released by the small dot exploded the moment they came into contact with the lightning cage.

The main reason was that Zhong Mingyi didn't expect Xiaodian to be so decisive. You know, Xiaodian wasn't much farther away from the center of the explosion than Venusaur. Even though he had expected it, he still wanted to curse when he actually saw Xiaodian hiding behind Venusaur's vines.

At the moment of the explosion, the lightning cage that had been tightly trapping Venusaur disappeared, but Little Point no longer needs it.

Without the restraints of the Thunder Cage, even though Venusaur was still rooted to the ground, it was blasted away without any suspense.

As for the little dot? The little dot is still hiding!

To be honest, the smaller ones weren't much better off either. After all, they were too close to the center of the explosion. Even with some resistance, there were things blocking their way, so they were still badly injured.

As for the vines that Xiaodian used as shields, they were blown to smithereens in the explosion, leaving almost nothing behind.

This is also Lin Xuan's idea. Faced with the dilemma of choosing between the seed and the Venusaur's true form, Lin Xuan said - I want them both!

However, there was still a price to pay. Just as Zhong Mingyi thought, Small Point might not be inferior to Venusaur in speed and attack, but there is one thing it absolutely cannot match: tankiness.

Little Dot is, after all, an Emolga, not a real Zapdos; it's a fragile creature and got blown away.

However, Lin Xuan felt it was still worth it.

"I underestimated you a bit."

Zhong Ming sighed as he looked at the chaotic scene. The power of Xiao Dian's attack was much stronger than he had imagined. Although Venusaur survived, it was basically half-crippled.

Now we can only see how Lin Xuan's condition is.

"Dandan~"

Little Dot weakly climbed out of the pit on the side. It was his own skill that almost blew him up.

Speaking of which, I have to thank Venusaur, otherwise he might not be able to fly here now. The power of his ultimate move seems to be stronger than he expected.

Tiny was clearly in bad shape too, and even had trouble flying, but it was still much better than Venusaur.

On the other hand, Venusaur had obvious burn marks on its body. It seemed to want to continue using Root, but it managed to use it with difficulty and even used photosynthesis. However, it was impossible for it to fully recover.

Even regarding the extent of recovery, Zhong Mingyi was unsure. After sighing inwardly, he finally spoke again.

"Alright, alright, I admit defeat in this match."

"The game isn't over yet."

Lin Xuan said sincerely that it was indeed the case, as the smaller one was not in good condition, while Venusaur had recovery skills such as photosynthesis, so it still had a considerable chance of winning.

Song Chen looked at his senior in disbelief, unable to believe that Zhong Ming had said this.

Zhong Mingyi seemed to sense Song Chen's gaze and then said, "You're already like this before even using your wave power. No matter how you look at it, I've lost."

Zhong Mingyi spoke with a relaxed expression, but Song Chen knew that his senior was not so relaxed at all.

Chapter 370 Bad Luck

To be honest, before today, Zhong Mingyi had never lost a battle against his peers. Although he did not use his full strength this time, Lin Xuan's situation was special.

Thinking of this, Song Chen felt a little melancholy.

He can barely keep up with Lin Xuan now, but that's only because Lin Xuan started late. If Lin Xuan were given another year... no, not even a year, maybe just one or two months, he could completely leave him behind.

As for what would happen a year from now... Song Chen even felt that Zhong Mingyi might be the one in danger.

After the battle, Zhong Mingyi told Lin Xuan something.

"The alliance will send another group of people tomorrow, so be prepared."

"Who?"

Lin Xuan was a little curious because Zhong Mingyi had mentioned before that there might be some acquaintances among the people who came.

"We'll find out tomorrow. Anyway, the island will be more lively then."

Zhong Mingyi yawned, seemingly a little sleepy. Lin Xuan didn't know where Zhong Mingyi had gone during the time she was away, but he certainly hadn't stayed in the same place.

When I returned, Zhong Mingyi seemed to have just returned from a trip as well, and then he went to fight me.

Anyway, there's one person you definitely know.

Zhong Mingyi wasn't sure exactly how far Lin Xuan's social circle had gone, but there was one person Lin Xuan definitely knew.

"Who?"

"That kid from the Yulong family."

"Oh~ Ryusei."

Lin Xuan pursed his lips, but thinking about it, he realized that he only knew a few people in the alliance, and those who could come here were obviously all quite strong, so that was about it.

However, even now, Lin Xuan still harbors resentment about the time when Long Xing took him on a Charizard ride during his visit to the Yu Long family, and he always thinks about getting revenge.

Speaking of Longxing, Zhong Mingyi seemed to suddenly remember something and asked Lin Xuan:

"Didn't you take an egg from the Yulong family before? It should have hatched by now. What's inside?"

This time, Zhong Mingyi was a little curious. He figured the Yulong family wouldn't be so stingy as to just give Lin Xuan a Pokémon and call it a day.

Upon hearing this, both Lin Xuan and Song Chen looked at Zhong Mingyi with strange expressions.

"What's with those looks you're giving me? You're not some red-faced dragon, are you?"

Zhong Mingyi found it strange. Logically speaking, as long as it wasn't a disgrace to the dragon race like the Crimson-Faced Dragon, it was acceptable.

"It can't be a Dragon-type Pokémon, can it?"

Zhong Mingyi made a rather bold assumption, but he never expected that the reality would be even bolder than he imagined.

"Ahem, things are a little complicated."

Lin Xuan took out Pokémon's Poké Ball, and with a "I'm showing you a big treasure" expression, silently pressed the button in the middle of the Poké Ball in front of Zhong Mingyi.

Three minutes later...

Zhong Mingyi silently walked past Lin Xuan and Song Chen to the open space, took a deep breath to calm himself down.

In his original expectation, the worst outcome would be that the Yulong family would just give him an ordinary Pokémon to get rid of him, but that was unlikely. Although the Yulong family was notoriously stingy, they wouldn't be that stingy.

The best outcome would be a quasi-god cub, which, although precious, would still be something the Yulong family could be proud of.

As for the kind of thing that no one would even dare to dream of, that would be to directly give Lin Xuan a Pokémon egg from the Aqua siblings.

But even if the Yulong family had it, they would never give it away.

But the reality seems to be a little different from what he expected.

After calming down, Zhong Mingyi silently turned around and looked at Lin Xuan, who was holding the Poison Baby:

"Did you make some shady deal with the Yulong family? It's okay, you can tell me anything. I'm tight-lipped and I definitely won't tell anyone."

Lin Xuan: ? ? ?

Lin Xuan's mind was filled with countless questions, mainly because Zhong Mingyi's expression didn't seem to be joking; he was asking Lin Xuan very seriously.

"For example, things like arranged marriages. I've only heard about them before. Could it really be true?"

Then Zhong Mingyi looked deep in thought, as if he was wondering if there was a suitable candidate among the younger generation of the Yulong family.

Lin Xuan's face immediately darkened. If he weren't truly unable to beat this guy, he would have already slapped him without any hesitation.

However, there was one thing he was really curious about.

"Why do you and the Doctor both seem to think the Dragon Royal Family is stingy? I think they're quite generous!"

"that is you!"

Zhong Ming rolled his eyes at Lin Xuan.

"There aren't many who can receive the kind of treatment from the Yu Long family, which is why I'm curious about what kind of deal you have with them. Are you selling your body, or are you actually a bloodline of the Yu Long family that has been lost to the outside world?"

If Lin Xuan hadn't stopped him, Zhong Mingyi would probably have been able to conjure up a melodramatic urban novel in his mind.

It seems that even Zhong Mingyi himself did not notice that, at some point, he was gradually moving from a cool and aloof champion towards a goofy persona, and at the same time, he was getting more and more into it.

All of this is thanks to Lin Xuan!

"It's a shame you're a trainer."

Lin Xuan's lips twitched, and then Zhong Mingyi began to explain.

"Well... it's related to something that happened many years ago. In short, they were tricked once, and decades ago, the Yulong family was severely weakened. Their stinginess probably started around that time, and they didn't recover until about twenty or thirty years ago."

Zhong Mingyi spoke while thinking, but in the end he hadn't actually experienced it himself, so he was just telling Lin Xuan what he had heard.
