Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

"Come on, have some first."

Lin Xuan pressed Bai Yao down into her seat and then held a steamed dumpling dipped in tomato sauce to Bai Yao's mouth. However, Bai Yao was fully awake at this moment and covered her mouth tightly, refusing to take a single bite.

"Dipped in ketchup! What kind of heresy is this?!"

"Never mind, I think I'm getting in the way, so I'll go first."

Having covered most of the topics, Areta yawned and prepared to leave.

"Are you in such a hurry? You don't have any more matches after that, do you?"

"You...you're quite good with words."

Areta's lips twitched. Is this what they call killing someone by breaking their spirit?

Okay, okay, you win! Now you have a match to play, alright?

“I admit defeat this time, but next time… when Genesect’s weaknesses are completely addressed, then it’s hard to say.”

After waving his hand casually, Areta spoke to Lin Xuan. He wasn't as conflicted as Irene; he completely regarded Genesect as his Pokémon.

Since things have come to this, why can't we accept it? Aren't trainers just a bunch of guys who borrow the power of Pokémon? At most, he just used some technological means.

After saying all that, Areta left.

As for Lin Xuan, she was definitely dragged away by Bai Yao. Shaxian snacks? Although they taste good, I was already tired of them back in China.

Moreover, when Lin Xuan is treating, the important thing isn't whether the food is good or not, but how much money it costs.

We absolutely have to bankrupt Lin Xuan! With this in mind, Bai Yao forcefully dragged Lin Xuan into the restaurant she wanted to go to. As for the other point…

"If I remember correctly, the power of waveguide should also have the function of lie detection."

At this moment, a member of the United Federation of Nations was standing next to Areta, but he seemed to be quite respectful to Areta.

“Indeed, in this respect, waveguide users are even stronger than superpowered users, but the premise is that the ability is activated. Some people find this function annoying and turn it off in normal times. Lin Xuan... he should be one of those people.”

An old man on the side casually explained.

So what question did he ask you?

"Fortunately, he was probably just asking casually. After all, our research is so secretive, it's unlikely he would know about it. Besides, I thought I could fool him, otherwise I wouldn't have gone to see him directly."

Areta still felt a bit of a headache. The abilities of these special ability users were all more powerful than the last, which meant that even if he wanted to say something to Lin Xuan, he had to be careful and even prepare in advance, otherwise he would be seen through by accident.

However, Areta was indeed lucky. From the beginning, Lin Xuan hadn't turned on the lie detector function—except when asking about modifying Pokémon. But Lin Xuan's conclusion was that Areta wasn't lying.

This should also be the first time that Lin Xuan's wave-guiding power has failed against people other than Luo Guan. If it were someone else, it would be easy to tell whether they were lying.

However, there was also an element of luck involved. Although Areta had some means of concealment, she still had a slight emotional fluctuation the moment she heard the question. If Lin Xuan had been able to detect it at that time, he would definitely have noticed the anomaly. Unfortunately, Lin Xuan only activated it later.

It can only be said that they lacked experience; I didn't expect that someone could escape the test of waveguide power.

Upon hearing this, the old man on the side seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, but at this moment, some people were quite unsettled.

"What about those two people?"

In the Chinese athletes' village, Zhong Mingyi's face darkened slightly because Lin Xuan and Bai Yao had disappeared again. That's right, Lin Xuan hadn't told him when she left.

It shouldn't have taken too long originally, but Bai Yao pulled him away anyway, so you can't blame him for that.

"That's where you're wrong. People need to relax after a competition too."

"Cheng Si spoke as if she were very experienced."

"Ha, acting like I've dated you before."

"Hey, I have a girlfriend."

As soon as Cheng Si said those words, they instantly drew the attention of the other five people, who seemed to be filled with a hint of—killing intent!

"What, what is this for? Didn't I tell you before?"

Cheng Si felt a chill run down her spine and seemed to want to leave her seat, but Zhong Ming pressed her down on top of him. Even Zhang Shouqing cast a strange glance at her.

Chapter 625 My Life Is Important

"Your Eevee's move is indeed terrifyingly powerful. The only problem might be that it consumes too much stamina. Speaking of which—why do your Little Spot and Eevee both seem to excel at this kind of explosive attack?"

Two days before the finals, Lin Xuan was still training with Zhong Mingyi. Zhong Mingyi's Slowking had not fully recovered, but his other Pokémon were still very strong, which was more than enough for Lin Xuan to train with, such as Lucario in front of him.

At this time, Lucario was also in Mega Evolution, but even so, it still faced considerable pressure from Lin Xuan's Eevee.

While Zhong Mingyi was chatting with Lin Xuan, Lucario's thoughts drifted back to a year ago. Back then, Lin Xuan and Eevee were nothing like they are now; they were just two naive little guys who never imagined they could make such rapid progress.

After hearing Zhong Mingyi's sigh, Lin Xuan couldn't help but glance at Yibu; these two seemed to be right.

However, Zhong Mingyi wasn't the only one in the training room at this moment; there was another person—

"I've already been eliminated, and you still want me to come back to work? Isn't that a bit too much?"

After yawning, Zhang Shouqing said that they now pretty much knew that in team competitions—unless there were any special circumstances—the Chinese team was basically guaranteed to win, so he was quite relaxed.

They even considered just opening the event and letting Bai Yao and the others play.

Anyway, Bai Yao and the others really wanted a chance to play. Lin Xuan and the others couldn't do anything about Zhang Shouqing's attitude of giving up. As long as they could win the match later, that would be fine.

Now Lin Xuan has also come to understand Zhang Shouqing's true strength, and can only say that this guy has been hiding his true abilities very well.

And it's not just Eevee and Tiny; Gallade and the rest of the family of rats are also training.

The time for the competition is approaching. Although Lin Xuan has already defeated Genesect, many people are very confident in Lin Xuan, thinking that since Lin Xuan has already defeated Genesect, defeating another Magearna should not be a problem, right?

However, Lin Xuan knew that Magiana's strength was definitely greater than Genesect's, and might even be much greater.

After all, most trainers and viewers, when watching Lin Xuan and his friends' battles, would just say things like "Wow, they're so strong!" or "They're so awesome!" It's really hard to see any difference in skill or ability...

Even for many players off the field, it is quite difficult to understand the strength comparison between two Pokémon before actually going into battle.

But Lin Xuan sensed that Magiana's strength was definitely above Genesect's; Zhong Mingyi had struggled so much before but hadn't been able to defeat it successfully.

Therefore, Lin Xuan is under considerable pressure right now, as many people have high expectations for him, and if he loses...

"Hey! What are you thinking?"

Zhang Shouqing waved his hand in front of Lin Xuan, who always seemed indifferent no matter what.

Lin Xuan felt that even if he were to go up and fight Areta and the others later, he would at most complain a few times, then struggle fiercely before finally calling GG.

After a brief chat, which served as a break, training continued until evening when someone knocked on the training room door.

"Lin Xuan! Someone is looking for you!"

The person who arrived was Bai Yao, with a chicken leg dangling from his mouth, clearly having just finished eating and then suddenly coming over.

"Someone's looking for me? Who is it?"

Lin Xuan was a little puzzled. It shouldn't be someone from the Chinese team, otherwise Bai Yao wouldn't have come in to tell him, but would have come directly to him.

"Your acquaintance, the one from the Carlos team."

"Irene?"

Lin Xuan was stunned for a moment, then Bai Yao rolled her eyes.

"No, it's that superpowered person."

"Jonar?"

Bai Yao nodded, then skipped back to the restaurant.

If Irene came looking for him, he might follow her. But Jonar is out of the question. Although he's quite handsome, unfortunately, Bai Yao isn't interested in that type.

Lin Xuan nodded and then walked out.

When he arrived outside the athletes' village, Jonah was indeed waiting for him.

Jonar is a handsome guy, but he's not quite the same type as Lin Xuan. Lin Xuan is the kind of guy who would look good in women's clothing, while Jonar is tall and thin, but looks rather quiet.

"What, you want to bribe me to go easy on you in the match the day after tomorrow?"

Lin Xuan said with a smile, then pointed to the restaurant not far away, saying that it seemed a bit inappropriate to bring Jonar into their restaurant, and it would be better to talk outside.

Jonar knew that Lin Xuan was just joking and didn't take it to heart, simply shaking his head.

"I did come to talk to you about something, but it's not related to this competition."

"Unrelated to the competition?"

Lin Xuan was a little curious because although she and Jonar found each other agreeable, their only interaction was in matters related to the competition.

After leaving the competition, the two basically had no contact.

Even during this competition, the two barely had any contact, since there was nothing for them to do.

"Is there anything that can't be said after the match?"

Lin Xuan shrugged and said that it seemed a bit inappropriate for the two of them to meet now, since they would soon be opponents. Regardless of which side lost, if this scene were filmed, it would likely cause some controversy, since many people enjoy spreading rumors.

Of course, any normal person with a brain wouldn't believe it, but the problem is—on the internet, preserving your own mind isn't an easy thing.

"is it?"

Jonar was stunned for a moment. He had never thought about such a thing before. He just thought he could come over, so he came here. His main purpose was to be a clear-headed fool.

Lin Xuan scratched her head after seeing his expression.
