Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

That's right. The little creature that Pidgeot attacked was just a clone from the very beginning of the attack. Even the little creature attacking behind Pidgeot wasn't a physical entity.

In this way, it doesn't matter which one of them is attacked, since it's just a clone anyway.

Pidgeot just used Brave Bird, a powerful Flying-type move, so stopping it won't be easy, especially since one of its wings was attacked by Xiaoxi. Although the injury wasn't serious, it still had some impact, and Pidgeot's flight wasn't as smooth as before, especially with Xiaoxi following behind.

Although Lin Xuan knew it was just a clone, Pidgeot and Zhao Siming didn't, so at this moment, he seemed to have only one choice—

"Keep pushing forward, don't stop!"

Zhao Siming gritted his teeth and said, so that the speed of the eagle did not slow down after losing its target; it simply changed direction and rushed straight into the air.

Zhao Siming's idea was simple: the sky is where Pidgeot is the main stage. No matter how strong you two are, can you even get up there?

But just as Zhao Siming had this thought in his mind, another little Xi appeared in front of Pidgeot, right on the path he was about to ascend into the air. It appeared so abruptly that he was momentarily caught off guard.

But this guy wasn't here before!

Pidgeot's eyes widened, but at this point there was no choice but to keep charging forward. Otherwise, if Little Xi Xiaomi surrounded him from the front and back, things would get complicated.

[Holy crap, how did this happen?]

[Hey, what's with Mr. Mimikyu's pair of mice?]

Why does this match seem so bizarre?

Indeed, Zhao Siming still doesn't know how Lin Xuan's pair of rats managed to do that—to disappear in one place and reappear in another in an instant. How did they do that?

With this question lingering in his mind, even in the midst of this tense battle, he couldn't help but look up at Lin Xuan, eager to know the answer.

Lin Xuan noticed the other person's gaze, smiled, and said:

"It's a clone!"

He had no intention of hiding his move, after all, it wasn't anything special. It was just that it was so sudden that Zhao Siming didn't think in that direction. Even if he didn't say anything, after watching the replay of the match a few times after it ended, he would be able to guess it.

So Lin Xuan chose this moment to speak frankly. After all, even if you know it's a clone, what can you do? What solutions do you have?

The answer was obviously no. Zhao Siming's mentality collapsed after hearing Lin Xuan say the word "clone". He had indeed thought about this possibility before, but he quickly dismissed it.

After all, if these are all clones... then where are the real bodies of the pair of rats?

The reason why Pidgeot is blocked in its path is still Xiaoxi's clone. It is impossible for him to stop Pidgeot from taking off unless the real body is here. But the clone only needs to delay for a few seconds to slow down Pidgeot's speed, and then Xiaoxi's clone can catch up.

Xiaoxi's clone delivered a direct hit to Pidgeot's head with a single slash, shattering it instantly. However, the slash still caught Pidgeot off guard, causing it to suffer a concussion. Then, a group of small rats chased after it.

That's right, it was a group of several of Xiaomi's clones who seized the opportunity to beat up Pidgeot, and they attacked the wounds that Xiaoxi had left on its wings in a very unsportsmanlike manner.

Chapter 399 Fighting the Advisor?

Upon seeing this, Zhao Siming opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he couldn't utter a single word.

Even Zhao Siming was stunned. He had been hosting matches for so long, and this was the first time he had ever seen such a magical scene. How could a one-on-one match turn into a brawl?

【? ? ? 】

Why do Mimikyu's battles always seem so strange?

[Support just gang fights]

Forcing a singles match into a team battle

So this really is a clone?

This level of clone ability is clearly beyond many people's imagination, after all, the power displayed by the previous clones was not bad.

However, clones are just clones after all. Although they have certain combat abilities, they are ultimately limited. After pulling Pidgeot down and beating it up, those clones quickly disappeared.

But before the eagle could even catch its breath, Xiao Xi and Xiao Mi rushed over.

Although Pidgeot was in a sorry state and injured, it was in a state of rage, and its offensive capabilities increased rather than decreased.

Is this never going to end? I could forgive you for not knowing they were clones before, but now that I know, you still want to play this game? They're just a few clones, right? I'll just swat them away with one wing!

Pidgeot looked at the two "clones" in front of it and had this thought in its mind, while at the same time Zhao Siming gave the next instructions.

"Hurry up and get out!"

Pidgeot did as Zhao Siming said almost without hesitation, and then collided directly with the two "clones" rushing towards it, and then...

To everyone's astonishment, Pidgeot was slapped to the ground by the two mice once again. The last thought that flashed through Pidgeot's mind before it fell unconscious was—I've been tricked! This isn't a clone, it's real!

Seeing this, Lin Xuan scratched his cheek. He couldn't blame himself; he had never said those were clones, it was just their own assumption.

However, it's because Xiaoxi and Xiaomi's clones are so realistic that it's hard to tell them apart, which is why this situation occurred.

"With Pidgeot unable to fight, the pair of mice have won!"

The referee on the side was momentarily stunned as the Pidgeot fell straight to the ground, but quickly announced the final result. However, it had indeed been a long time since he had officiated such a "spectacular" match...

So are these two the real ones?

The referee still couldn't see clearly when Xiao Xi Xiaomi landed. The real and the fake were mixed together and it was impossible to tell them apart. Moreover, these were not like shadow clones that would break at the slightest touch. It was too difficult to distinguish them.

"I just want to know... how did you manage to create these clones?"

After recalling Pidgeot into its Poké Ball, Zhao Siming sighed. Although he knew he would likely lose, he didn't expect to lose so miserably, not even knowing where his opponent was in the end.

"Actually, it's not that complicated. These two little guys will learn it with practice. It mainly relies on the skill of counting mice."

Lin Xuan said with a smile, but when he said that, Zhao Siming almost spat out blood again.

It's not that complicated. You'll learn it with a little practice.

Do you know how much of a blow these two sentences can be to a person?

[As expected of Teacher Mimikyu, she can easily pull off a look that I can't.]

What should I do if I really want to hit someone?

[Calm down, everyone. Mimikyu isn't the same Mimikyu she used to be. If you were to go into a real-life PvP battle now, you'd most likely get instantly killed.]

[Damn, they can't even beat real-person battles now?]

"It's alright, I'll head back now..."

Zhao Siming didn't say anything more and turned to leave, mainly because he was worried that he wouldn't be able to handle the shock if he stayed any longer.

But just as he turned to leave, he heard Lin Xuan talking to a pair of rats behind him:

"There has been progress, but the realism of the clones is still lacking. If it were a stronger opponent, it would be much easier to spot. I still need to continue training."

Zhao Siming almost missed a step as he walked down the stairs—I'm so sorry my strength is so weak.

[Teacher Qiu's every word hits right at the heart.]

Okay, spectating is over, time to retreat!

Since it wasn't the main competition yet, the qualifiers, being a 1v1 format, were definitely not as exciting as the main competition, and the audience wasn't as enthusiastic. Many viewers were there because of Lin Xuan, so after Lin Xuan's match ended, the number of viewers in the official live stream dropped again.

Just as Lin Xuan was reporting his victory to Bai Yao and the others (although no one paid him any attention, since in their minds it would be big news if Lin Xuan lost), he received a phone call. The name on the caller's phone made Lin Xuan hesitate for a moment about whether to answer.

But in the end, I gritted my teeth and accepted it.

"Hello, teacher..."

"Don't call me teacher! Didn't I tell you to bring Bai Yao back? What kind of behavior is it for a girl to run around aimlessly all day instead of staying with the group!"

Hearing Luo Guan's angry roar on the other end of the phone, Lin Xuan couldn't help but move the phone away a little. Only after the noise on the other end subsided did she answer it again.

During the competition, Jin Hui Dojo had accommodations specially arranged by the league, and all the members from the dojos who came to participate in the competition basically lived together... except for Lin Xuan and Bai Yao. However, Lin Xuan was relatively normal, after all, his situation was special, but Luo Guan couldn't stand Bai Yao running around everywhere.

If it weren't for some recent business preventing him from going to the capital, he would have rushed there right now.

"Teacher, you know how she is. I can't hold onto Senior Sister Bai Yao. I can't exactly use my aura to forcibly pull her back, can I? Besides, if we really fight, I don't think I'd be able to win..."

"So you two are staying at the same hotel?"

"I swear, there's absolutely nothing between me and my senior sister..."

"Don't say anymore, I still believe that."

Luo Guan's words relieved Lin Xuan, but his next words made his face turn dark.

"After all, no girl could possibly like someone with your personality, let alone Bai Yao."

"Dandan!!!"

Xiao Dian, who was listening, was almost laughing so hard she could hardly breathe. But this seemed to be a common occurrence, except that Lin Xuan herself didn't seem to realize it.

"Teacher, this is not a personal attack!"

Lin Xuan's lips twitched. Why was even Luo Guan saying this now?

"Never mind, nothing will happen to the two of you together anyway. Just be careful. Besides this, there's something else I need to talk to you about."

"You say."

As Lin Xuan spoke, she walked out of the arena, put on a mask, and after getting ready, she turned around and headed straight for the hotel, which was just across the street from the arena, in the time it took to cross a zebra crossing.

"It's a matter concerning the alliance... or rather, your advisor's matter."

Luo Guan paused briefly at this point before continuing.

"About Mega Evolution."

Luo Guan naturally knew about Mega Evolution, which is why Qin Guan asked him to convey this message.
