As a trainer, he has the rain trait

After a night's rest, Zhilin and the others were full of energy and no one suffered from acclimatization, which was good news.

In order to adapt to the venue in advance, Shangguan Yan took them to the competition venue: Linglong Elf Competition Center.

Xu Wu followed behind and curiously asked Zuo Tingyun beside him: "Teacher Zuo, why are we not competing at the Bird's Nest? Wasn't the last competition held there?"

Zuo Tingyun was too lazy to answer Xu Wu, but when he saw the others leaning over, he finally explained, "The Bird's Nest is also one of the competition venues. The third round of eliminations will be held at the Bird's Nest, and it will be broadcast live to the entire league. If you want to play in the Bird's Nest for the entire league to watch, you'll need real skills."

Xu Wu's eyes lit up, "We can definitely do it!"

Su Muzhe knocked his head and said, "It's good to have confidence, but don't underestimate the enemy!"

Xu Wu felt pain and pouted, "Got it!"

Zuo Tingyun thought for a moment, then said to Zhilin, "By the way, if your parents weren't on a mission, they would have been able to see it too."

Zhilin nodded. He knew this. He would work hard to get into the top 64 and let them see him!

The other members of the team were trying to encourage themselves, and no one noticed the disappointment in Zhu Yu's eyes as he lowered his head behind Zhilin...

The Linglong Elf Arena is enormous, the largest in the Donghuang Alliance, covering 480,000 square meters, with a building area of 540,000 square meters and a capacity of 240,000 spectators. It has hosted numerous Young Phoenix Cups, Attribute Masters Tournaments, and Linglong Conferences. After the initial Linglong Conference, it became a major professional venue for Donghuang Alliance elf competitions and a landmark building.

The venue is very professional and uses the highest quality materials. Zhilin saw twelve types of battle venues alone. According to Teacher Zuo, there are a total of eighteen attribute venues and eight natural complex environment venues. It can be said that it is very comprehensive.

"Linglong, the word originally means petite and flexible. But the Linglong Elf Competition Center is very large, because it uses a large number of Linglong porcelain. Linglong porcelain is made by carving many regular Linglong eyes on the porcelain body through the hollowing process", and then the glaze is fired into translucent holes, which are very beautiful. Because the original meaning of "Linglong" is dexterity, clarity and translucency, this kind of porcelain is called Linglong. Linglong porcelain is often paired with blue and white patterns, called blue and white Linglong porcelain. This kind of porcelain has both the art of hollowing and the characteristics of blue and white, which is both simple and fresh. After the first Donghuang Conference was held here, the Donghuang Conference was renamed the Linglong Conference." Shangguan Yan stood in front of the crowd to introduce them.

"In the core venue of the Linglong Elf Arena, when the Linglong Tournament champion is awarded, a crystal curtain made of tens of thousands of crystals will descend from the ceiling. The pure white moonlight will converge on the champion, creating the scene of the crystal curtain descending, Linglong gazing at the autumn moon. I believe that you will all bring this honor to the school in the future."

After encouraging everyone, Shangguan Yan let them fight on the field. This was agreed upon with the official personnel. The time was only one hour, so Zhilin did not dare to waste time and took turns fighting with Xu Wu and others.

An hour later, several people left the venue and rested aside.

"So white, so smooth!" Xu Wu touched the exquisite porcelain inlaid on the wall, and looked back at the battlefield he had just experienced, his eyes full of determination.

"Fighting in such a professional venue, I definitely won't lose!"

Zhilin nodded, "No one wants to lose, we must win! At least we have to play a game at the Bird's Nest!"

"Then come on!" Zhu Yu stretched out his hand and placed it in front of the two of them.

Zhilin and Xu Wu looked at each other and reached out their hands.

"come on, come on, come on!"

The forceful waving of their hands represents their determination...

A room that was much larger than Zhilin and his friends' temporary residence was filled with contestants from Jingchu University.

The facilities in the room are simple, including a projector, a screen, a computer, a water dispenser, a long table, and twenty-one stools.

This is the guidance room officially prepared by the alliance. There are not many of them, and they are basically provided to various universities, dojos, and families.

Zuo Tingyun stood at the front, holding the green blade of the Cong Youbing in his hand, with the tip of the blade pointing at the word "calm" on the curtain.

"The three most important things to keep in mind when competing in Kyoto are: stay calm, stay calm, and stay damn calm! Don't panic just because you're at a disadvantage. You're the most outstanding rookie trainers in Jingchu, no worse than anyone else. Do you understand?"

"heard it!"

Zuo Tingyun nodded in satisfaction and looked at Shangguan Yan who was sitting on his left. "Teacher Shangguan, do you have anything else to say?"

Shangguan Yan heard this and stood up. She looked at everyone and slammed the table. "I'll just say this! It doesn't matter if you lose, just fight with all your might!"

"That's it, disband and prepare yourselves!"

After leaving the room, several people started chatting.

"So domineering!" Xu Wu's eyes were full of admiration for Shangguan Yan.

Wu Zhao nodded, "It's indeed domineering. You must have the momentum and you can't lose the game!"

"Don't worry! The word 'lose' doesn't exist in my dictionary!"

Zhilin frowned, deep in thought. Zhu Yu patted him and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

"To be on the safe side, I wanted to get information from other people, but I couldn't think of a good way!"

Su Muzhe, who was passing by, glanced at him, stopped, and said, "This is not something you should consider. Do you really think that we teachers are here on a public-funded trip? We will collect intelligence!"

Zhilin smiled and said, "Then I feel relieved."

"Has your Fluffy Sheep not evolved yet?"

"Not yet, but it can evolve at any time!" Zhilin shook his head.

Su Muzhe was stunned for a moment before asking, "Did you give the Rongrong Sheep the Stone of Unchange?"

Hearing Su Muzhe's words, everyone else turned their attention.

Zhilin nodded. "Rongrong Sheep's potential hasn't been fully unleashed yet. To prevent it from evolving uncontrollably, I gave it the Stone of Unchange."

Su Muzhe thought for a moment and then asked, "How long have you been wearing it?"

"Over a week!"

"Okay, I believe you know your limits!" After receiving the answer, Su Muzhe did not try to persuade him and turned away.

After Su Muzhe walked away, Xu Wu dared to come over, "No, buddy? You can evolve first and then use props to make up for your potential. It's not like you can't afford it!"

Zhilin smiled softly, "There's still time, believe me!"

Wu Zhao patted Xu Wu's shoulder and said, "Teacher Su believes in A-Lin, so don't worry."

Xu Wu thought about it and agreed. Zhilin's considerations were always prudent.

After Zhilin finished explaining, he looked at the commemorative ball hanging from his waist and smiled, "Don't worry! Wait a few days and you'll be able to evolve."

After hearing the trainer's words, the commemorative ball finally calmed down...

On December 30th, the weather was fine.

9:08 am, Linglong Elf Competition Center.

The auditorium of the Linglong Elf Arena was already full of spectators, waiting for the game to begin.

boom! boom! boom!

Fireworks from Liuyang, Jingchu, burst into brilliant glory in the sky. Zhilin, sitting in the contestant's booth, watched the colorful fireworks and couldn't help but touch the Poké Ball at his waist, whispering, "We will definitely win!"

Xu Wu sat next to him and looked around, saying with emotion: "There are so many people!"

"Indeed!" Zhilin nodded in approval!

"Would you like some Coke?" Xu Wu suddenly took out a bottle of Coke and handed it to Zhilin.

Zhilin was stunned for a moment, "I didn't see you bringing anything? Where did it come from?"

Xu Wu raised an eyebrow and smiled, then took out a bottle of Coke from his shadow. Zhilin understood, Gengar was hiding in his shadow, and the Coke must have come from Gengar's dimensional pocket.

"Zhu Yu, do you want to drink?" Xu Wu turned his head and asked Zhu Yu again.

"Is there water?"

"Have!"

Xu Wu took out a bottle of water and handed it to Zhu Yu. Just as he was about to open the bottle of happy water and take a sip, it was snatched away by a hand reaching out from behind. Xu Wu looked and saw that it was Zuo Tingyun.

Zuo Tingyun glanced at him and said, "Stop talking, the opening ceremony has begun!"

Xu Wu turned back angrily and said, "If you want a Coke, just ask me! Why are you trying to snatch it from me?"

Su Muzhe glared at Zuo Tingyun angrily, "Stop bullying Xu Wu!"

"You're talking as if you've never bullied him!"

Su Muzhe was speechless.

Zhilin grinned and laughed secretly, poor Xu Wu!

Amid their laughter, the fireworks show ended.

A bird Pokémon with long golden feathers, a long, streamlined crown made of flames, a billowing tail, and wings covered with flaming feathers appears. Sparks flash when it flutters its wings, giving it a heart-stirring beauty.

It spread its huge wings to its fullest, emitting an aura like a blazing pillar of fire.

Zhilin was shocked. Moltres! The legendary beast!

"This is the Pokémon of Xu Qingyan, the King of Donghuang, Moltres, a legendary Pokémon!" Teacher Shangguan Yan's eyes were full of envy. In fact, he not only liked the local birds in various regions, but all bird Pokémon. It's just that because of his ordinary origin, most of his Pokémon are local birds.

In Xu Wu’s words: I understand, bird-catching boy!

The flaming bird circled the venue, then opened its brown, straight and pointed beak and sprayed out bright yellow flames, lighting the brazier in the center!

The atmosphere suddenly became lively and everyone cheered.

The bigwigs came on stage one by one, waved to the audience, and the media cameras were focused on them.

The president of the Pokémon Association stepped onto the stage, stood in the center, and said in a resounding voice, "I declare the 75th Phoenix Cup of the Donghuang League officially open!"

The sacred flame of the molten bird in the brazier suddenly rose higher, and the Phoenix Cup officially began!

He then launched into a lengthy speech. After a while, Xu Wu sighed and complained, "How can he talk for so long? I'm here to compete, not to listen to a speech!"

Zhilin comforted him: "Just bear with it a little longer, it's almost over!"

After a while.

"Okay, thank you for the guidance from the President of the Pokémon Association!" This was the host's speech.

Hearing this, Xu Wu immediately regained his spirits, "Finally, I'm done!"

"A total of 21,674 teams registered for this year's Young Phoenix Cup, but only 480 teams and over 1,000 players were able to arrive at the Linglong Elf Arena. They are the rising stars of the new generation of the Alliance, the new blood of the Alliance, and the future of the Alliance. Let us invite these contestants to enter!"

"Let's go! It's our turn to perform!" Xu Wu pulled Zhilin and Zhu Yu up and walked towards the center of the venue.

More than a thousand people stood with their heads held high. The team from Jingchu University, like the other top universities, was at the front, and Zhilin, as the team leader, was standing at the first one!

He could feel many eyes passing over him, and cameras were flashing at him from time to time. This made Zhilin, who was experiencing a big scene for the first time, very stressed and his heart was beating fast.

"Calm down, calm down! Don't be afraid!" Zhilin pursed his lips and comforted himself softly.

"Don't panic! We are the fattest!"

Hearing Xu Wu's encouragement behind him, Zhilin let out a long sigh and nodded slightly.

That’s right, we’re the fattest! No, we’re the best! Xu Wu didn’t seem to be calm either, and he didn’t speak clearly, almost leading himself astray!

Zhilin thought.

Then the contestant representatives spoke, the contestants took the oath, the leaders spoke, and the leaders encouraged the contestants. The opening ceremony proceeded step by step and came to the finale.

Competition rewards!

"One hundred and twenty-eight strong, any non-rare item worth less than fifty thousand Alliance Coins.

The top 64 will receive any item worth up to 100,000 Alliance Coins and a bonus of 50,000 Alliance Coins.

The top 32 will receive any item worth up to 200,000 Alliance Coins and a bonus of 100,000 Alliance Coins.

The top 16, any item worth up to 300,000 Alliance Coins, master trainer move manuals, and any non-rare Pokémon with outstanding talent.

Top eight, any item worth less than 500,000 Alliance Coins, secret techniques of the top trainer's moves, and any non-quasi-god Pokémon with outstanding talent.

Fourth place: 200,000 in prize money, and the chance to choose any non-legendary Pokémon with exceptional talent.

Third place: 300,000 in prize money, a non-legendary Pokémon of exceptional talent, and a Master Ball.

Runner-up: 500,000 in prize money, a non-legendary Pokémon of exceptional talent, a full set of attribute enhancers, and a Master Ball.

Champion, a prize of one million, any non-legendary Pokémon with outstanding talent, a full set of attribute enhancers, a Master Ball, and any legendary item.

The props, bonuses, and cheats from the quarterfinals and before can all be stacked! "

Zhilin swallowed his saliva, wow, what generous rewards, he was envious of every one of them. Not to mention the bonuses and optional props, the master's and king's secret techniques were hard to come by, it didn't matter, you might not be able to get them even if you had money!

Although the Master Ball cannot capture Legendary Pokémon 100% like in the game, it can capture wild non-Legendary Pokémon 100%. When you encounter bosses or shiny Pokémon, you don’t have to worry about them escaping!

As for the full set of attribute enhancers, it is also very valuable, about 300,000 Alliance coins. This thing represents the highest crystallization of Pokémon scientific research in the Alliance and can enhance the talents of Pokémon to the greatest extent.

The legendary items that can only be obtained by winning the championship are the most attractive, such as the Rainbow Feather, which is one of the legendary items that can revive Pokémon; the Eternal Evolution Stone, which represents countless wealth; and the World Branch, which is equivalent to obtaining a permanent buff with permanent damage medicine and grass attribute enhancement.

Under the stimulation of this kind of reward, everyone will try their best to achieve better results!

After the awards were announced, the highlight of the opening ceremony began: the opening exhibition match!

This kind of exhibition match is only held in large-scale events at the league level, and most of them are between top trainers. For example, Zhilin watched the Daigo vs. Shirona match on his mobile phone a few months ago. I wonder who the trainer who will perform later will be?

Zhilin looked at the rising battlefield in front of him with anticipation!
