Pokémon: What should I do? My father-in-law always wants to tear me apart

After lunch, the sun became hotter, shining on the courtyard of the villa, creating a warm yellow glow.

After a short rest, they prepared to return to the Bird's Nest. After all, Lin Guochang had a crucial game to participate in in the afternoon and could not afford to slack off.

Unlike the Xiaofengwang Cup, which has a tight schedule and complicated procedures, the Tianwang Tournament is more efficient and direct.

If nothing unexpected happens, the champion will be decided today.

"what?"

Lin Yi had just walked to the gate of the courtyard and was about to summon the Pokémon Ball to take in Snarling Tiger and Riolu, but he saw the two guys standing there with no intention of moving. He couldn't help but look puzzled and raised his eyebrows and asked,

"You won't come with us?"

"Crack."

The blazing roaring tiger nodded its head like a chicken pecking at rice, waving its two sturdy front paws in the air, and mumbling something to explain.

There's no point in going to the bird's nest, where they can only stay in the Poké Ball miserably, unable to do anything. Even stretching their muscles is a luxury. It would be better for them to stay in this spacious yard and take a comfortable nap.

Lin Yi raised the corners of his mouth slightly, staring at them with a half-smile, his eyes seemed to be able to see through everything, deep and sharp, with an irresistible sense of oppression.

Blazing Roaring Tiger and Riolu felt frightened by being stared at. They felt a chill on their backs. Cold sweat broke out uncontrollably from their foreheads, slid down their cheeks, and dripped onto the hot ground, evaporating instantly.

After a long while, until the two guys felt uncomfortable being stared at and almost couldn't stand it and surrendered, Lin Yi finally looked away.

Indeed, the Bird's Nest has extremely strict entry requirements. In order to maintain order on site and ensure the safety of the audience, each spectator is only allowed to release one small-sized Pokémon to accompany them while watching the game.

A creature as big as the Blazing Roaring Tiger definitely does not meet the standards and can forget about entering the venue legitimately.

However, the Blazing Roaring Tiger was raised by Lin Yi with great care and nurturing from a delicate and cute flaming cat. It went through countless training and battles before it grew into its current majestic appearance.

How could it possibly hide the little tricks in its mind from Lin Yi?

Whether someone is lying or not, Lin Yi can tell at a glance.

But Lin Yi did not expose them on the spot. He knew in his heart that the two little guys were probably planning to sneak out to play or do some tricks while he was away.

But as long as you don't cause any serious trouble, it's okay to indulge yourself occasionally.

So, Lin Yi just raised his chin slightly and said calmly:

"Don't run around."

He turned around and walked out of the villa with his family, leaving the two Pokémon in the yard who were secretly relieved.

……

"That's right, Dad."

The group arrived at the Bird's Nest. Just as Lin Guochang was about to step into the players' exclusive waiting area, his expression still showing the usual solemnity and concentration before a game, he was stopped by Lin Yi who was following closely behind him.

"what's up?"

Lin Guochang stopped, turned slightly, and looked at his son in confusion, with confusion in his eyes.

After all, the competition is approaching and time is running out. He is thinking about how to deal with the next tough battle.

Lin Yi took two quick steps forward and stood shoulder to shoulder with his father. He looked firmly into Lin Guochang's eyes and spoke word by word:

"When you win this big fight, the title of the Four Heavenly Kings will be secure."

Ruan Yaoyao, who was listening to this, was confused. She tilted her head, her eyes full of questions, and couldn't help but interrupt:

"What are you talking about? I remember the schedule wasn't like this, right? Doesn't it have to wait for the winner of this melee to fight against that little Biden, and only the winner can be crowned the champion? How could it be..."

Lin Yi shook his head slightly at her, signaling Ruan Yaoyao not to ask any more questions, but he did not explain the reason in detail. He just said briefly and firmly:

"Little Biden won't be coming."

Lin Guochang understood instantly, and nodded heavily. A confident smile quietly blossomed from the corner of his mouth, and his slightly frowned brows also relaxed. He patted Lin Yi's shoulder and said in a deep voice:

"I understand. This way, I can go all out in this big fight without any worries. I don't have to reserve my strength or be constrained for the subsequent battles as I planned before."

After saying that, he straightened his clothes and strode towards the waiting area with his head held high.

……

"Please follow me, contestant Lin Guochang."

A staff member dressed in a neat uniform and with a capable look bowed slightly politely and made a guiding gesture.

Lin Guochang nodded slightly, his expression calm and steady, and followed slowly, stepping into the arena that everyone was watching.

As he moved forward, he was keenly aware of the various gazes cast at him from all around him, like an invisible rain of arrows.

The other contestants' eyes were extremely vigilant, full of caution and fear, as if they might show their fangs in the next second. On the eve of this fierce competition, no one dared to take it lightly.

The expectant eyes of the audience were like the scorching warm sun, filled with an eager desire for a wonderful match, mixed with cheers for their favorite players, and gathered heavily in the venue.

Lin Guochang's eyes inadvertently swept towards the audience, with a hint of doubt in his expression. The familiar figure did not appear among the huge crowd.

It seems that God didn't come...

When I looked away, the view in front of me suddenly opened up and what came into view was an extremely vast area.

Just like the final melee venue of the Little Phoenix Cup, this space is vast and is cleverly divided into different areas in an orderly manner. Each area has hidden mysteries, such as rushing streams, steep rocks, or dense grass, adding countless variables and challenges to the battle.

However, this is the stage for the King of Kings competition, and the number of contestants is really limited in comparison.

Looking around, the sparse figures are probably not even a quarter of the hustle and bustle of the Little Phoenix Cup.

With such top players fighting each other, one can imagine how fierce the competition is. Every contestant standing here is a rare talent, an elite who has emerged after going through countless challenges.

Following the guidance of the staff, Lin Guochang was assigned to the grassland area with the widest view.

This area is covered with green grass. When the breeze blows, the grass waves gently, making it look like a tranquil green ocean. However, it is actually full of dangers, as the swaying grass may hide the opponent's attack at any time.

"Contestants, please send out your Pokémon."

At this moment, a clear and powerful command came from the radio. The voice echoed in the huge venue, instantly igniting the tense battle.

Lin Guochang was not in a hurry. He took the Poké Balls from his waist with steady hands and threw them out one by one.

Amidst the flashing light, the huge and resolute body of the Blastoise was the first to land on the ground. Its thick shell shone with a cold and hard luster in the sun, and its limbs were thick and powerful, like a moving fortress.

Immediately afterwards, Swampert appeared, emitting a powerful aura, and every step it took caused the ground to tremble slightly.

Lotte Kappa jumped out with his usual playfulness, shaking his hands and head briskly.

Slowly, Slowshell poked its head out of the ball. Looking lazy, it actually had a deep gaze, revealing wisdom that should not be underestimated.

The armored warrior has a nimble figure, the spikes on his shell are flashing with cold light, and he exudes a murderous aura.

Finally, the Thorn Dragon King shot out like a silver lightning, his slender body circling up, his dragon power overflowing, his sharp eyes staring at the surroundings, ready for battle.

Lin Guochang raised his hand slightly, and in his palm, the key stone and water-attribute Z pure crystal sparkled.

He looked calm, his eyes swept across the Pokémon with determination, and said softly but forcefully: "Everyone, let's make this a quick battle."

When the Pokémon heard this, their blood boiled and their loud shouts resounded through the sky, one after another.

A thrilling melee is about to break out.
