As a trainer, he has the rain trait

The opening ceremony of the Young Phoenix Cup is scheduled to be held on the 12th day of the first lunar month.

Although the season is still cold and the biting cold wind cuts through the skin like a knife, this cannot stop the burning hearts of audiences from all over the world.

They came from all directions, including warm families with their children and groups of close friends. They laughed and talked with each other, and enthusiastically discussed the exciting events that were about to unfold on this stage.

The participating teams were all in high spirits and entered the Linglong Elf Competition Center in an orderly manner. They quickly settled down in their designated areas and began to make final preparations.

At eight minutes past nine, the entire competition center was instantly filled with passionate and inspiring music. The music was like surging waves, hitting people's eardrums one after another, and the opening ceremony officially began.

Immediately afterwards, colorful fireworks bloomed in the sky like flowers competing for beauty.

Afterwards, various Flying-type Pokémon flapped their wings and flew high, interweaving and blending with the fireworks, forming an extremely beautiful and breathtaking picture, which made the audience present marvel and burst into cheers and applause, resounding throughout the Linglong Elf Arena and echoing for a long time.

In this extraordinarily warm atmosphere, Zhao Wuji walked out with steady steps and appeared in the center of the venue. Beside him, there followed a huge Snorlax, whose round and chubby body swayed as it walked. It looked naive and harmless, but in fact it contained unfathomable power.

I saw it slowly raise its head and open its mouth towards the sky, and a strong jet of flame instantly gushed out like a surging volcanic eruption.

A beam of light, so dazzling that one dared not look directly at it, shot straight into the sky. Wherever it passed, the cold air was dispelled without a trace, as if it had never existed.

The scorching temperature made the audience on the scene feel a warm current rushing towards them. The originally somewhat cold competition center was instantly filled with this passionate power, and the atmosphere was like a lit powder keg, being pushed to a climax.

Zhao Wuji stood in the center of the venue with a smile on his face, his deep eyes scanning the audience, and then his steady and powerful voice sounded, and he began to speak.

Dear audience members and trainers, welcome to the opening ceremony of the Phoenix Cup. Today, we gather here to witness this grand event for the Donghuang Alliance.

The Phoenix Cup is a stage for showcasing courage, wisdom, and friendship. Every participating trainer will shed their sweat and strive for their dreams. They will fight side by side with their Pokémon companions, weathering storms together and facing challenges together.

On this stage, we will see countless exciting moments, see Pokémon unleash their powerful strength, and see trainers demonstrate their outstanding command skills.

Let us all look forward to their wonderful performances in the competition, and hope that every Pokémon can shine in this event."

After Zhao Wuji finished his speech, the much-anticipated lighting of the Olympic flame began.

The representatives of the contestants looked solemn and dignified, and slowly walked towards the Olympic flame platform with the fire monkey.

Just as they were about to step onto the sacred flame platform, the blue sky was suddenly covered by a continuous, blazing cloud.

Everyone looked up in astonishment, and saw a Pokémon figure covered in flames slowly emerging from the clouds of fire.

This Pokémon is red with black stripes and has two dragon horns. It looks very majestic. As people of Donghuang, we are all very familiar with it.

The Donghuang mythical beast—Yanlin!

Before everyone could recover from their shock, Yan Lin's huge figure opened his enormous mouth, and a flame so hot that it could burn everything in the world spurted out like a raging wave of fire.

In an instant, the flames illuminated the entire Linglong Elf Arena. Then, like a precise arrow, the flames struck the sacred fire platform and ignited the sacred fire in an instant.

After Yan Lin lit the holy fire, he disappeared into the sky as suddenly as he appeared, leaving behind only the blazing holy fire and the spectacular and brilliant sunset clouds.

After a moment, the audience recovered from their shock and burst into deafening cheers and thunderous applause.

The enthusiastic atmosphere seemed to overturn the entire arena.

Xu Qingyan's eyes were filled with crystal tears in the backstage. He raised his head slightly and whispered softly, "It's not in vain that I raised you. You still remember to come and see me."

Seeing this, Zhilin hurriedly handed over a tissue. His eyes then turned to the fiery clouds in the sky. The clouds were as red as fire, like a beautiful painting unfolding in the sky. What was amazing was that the gorgeous colors were slowly changing towards the east.

“It gives you a direction!”

"Well, let's finish it quickly!" Xu Qingyan nodded slightly.

Zhilin suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart, and asked nervously, "You won't kill me, will you?"

Xu Qingyan burst into laughter, rolled his eyes at Zhilin, and said angrily, "Are you so unconfident in your own abilities?"

Zhilin muttered, "It's not that I'm not confident, it's that I think you're too strong."

At this moment, the host's passionate voice spread to every corner of the Linglong Elf Competition Center with the help of the loudspeaker.

"Next, we're presenting a thrilling exhibition match! Let's welcome Fire King Xu Qingyan and the captain of the previous Phoenix Cup champion team, Zhilin, to the stage with the warmest applause!"

"Let's go, it's our turn." Xu Qingyan raised the corner of his mouth slightly, took a step forward, and walked forward first.

Zhilin nodded and followed Xu Qingyan's footsteps.

The two walked side by side, steadily moving towards the battlefield that was slowly rising in the central area.

Their figures were projected onto the big screen under the illumination of the lights, instantly attracting the attention of the entire audience. Everyone stared at them intently, their eyes full of anticipation and excitement.

The two walked to the edge of the battlefield, their eyes met. Xu Qingyan raised his eyebrows slightly and said softly, "Use all your strength!"

Zhilin nodded, "Of course!"

Then the two separated and walked to opposite ends of the battlefield.

After Xu Qingyan stood still, he gently tossed the Poké Ball in his hand upwards, and the majestic and proud figure of Moltres flew out of it, landing steadily on the battlefield, with its wings spread and flames burning all over its body.

Zhilin also threw the Poké Ball in his hand. With a dazzling flash of lightning, a lightning dragon appeared, its body surrounded by flickering lightning. Zhilin looked at the lightning dragon and chuckled softly. "It's been a while since we last fought with all our strength, right?"

The electric dragon nodded slightly, "Yes!"

Zhilin's eyes narrowed as he stared at the Moltres on the battlefield, his tone firm, "Then show it off today!"

Before he finished speaking, the electric dragon had already sensed his master's determination, and the lightning around him became increasingly intense, preparing for the upcoming fierce battle.
