As a trainer, he has the rain trait

Some were happy and some were sad. Zhilin's side won relatively easily, but it was difficult to beat the 'Dragon Control Team' because their opponent was the 'Spirit Dragon Team' of the same clan.

At the end of the game that afternoon, the 'Yulong Team' lost 4:7 to the 'Spirit Dragon Team' and fell into the loser group.

According to the official loser group match grouping released in the evening, the 'Yulong Team' and the 'Shanhe Team' collided again. This is obviously extremely bad news for Jingchu University.

"It's up to you all to judge based on your own abilities. At least you are all in the top 16, which is enough!" Shangguan Yan shook her head helplessly and comforted the students.

Wu Zhao and Long Aotian nodded. They could only say that they were unlucky. If they hadn't collided, they should have been able to enter the quarterfinals.

Zhilin looked at Long Aotian and suddenly asked, "Do you have any tips or tricks for beating the 'Spirit Dragon Team'? We'll probably play them next!"

Long Aotian glanced at him and shook his head, "They relied on hard power to defeat us, and they may have some trump cards that they haven't used yet!"

Zhilin thought for a moment and then asked, "Aren't you from the same clan? Shouldn't you be very clear about your hidden cards?"

Long Aotian hesitated for a moment, then explained, "The Donghuang Yulong clan is divided into two branches. One branch is in the ancestral land of the Yulong in Kyoto, where the dragon veins are located and the dragon nest is huge. Our branch is a new branch, gathered in Jingchu. Because several legendary trainers who founded the Donghuang Alliance came from Jingchu, it is the place where dragons rise."

Zhilin was puzzled, "Why is this?"

Long Aotian frowned, unsure how to explain. Seeing this, Long Ya spoke up, "Donghuang has a long history and has produced dozens of emperors. Every emperor has been blessed by the three legendary beasts. Their remaining energy converged to form dragon veins. This energy can help dragon-type Pokémon, which have longer growth cycles, develop. That's why the Dragon Clan built dragon nests in these places to breed dragon-type Pokémon!"

Zhilin pondered, "Isn't Xuanyong also the home of several emperors? Why isn't there a branch of the Dragon Taming Clan?"

Long Aotian sighed, "There used to be one, but it was cut off later!"

Zhilin wanted to ask again, but seeing Long Ya shaking her head to indicate not to ask anymore, he had to give up.

"By the way, Zhilin, after you finish your competition and return to Jingchu, could you spare some time to come to our place?"

Zhilin was stunned. "Where are you guys going? What are you doing there?"

"Uh~ It's complicated to explain, but it's good for you anyway."

"Ok!"

......

Two days later, the loser group competition ended, and the 'Yulong Team' barely defeated the 'Shanhe Team'. Wu Zhao and his team stopped in the round of 16 and fell in eleventh place.

Up to now, there are only eight teams left in the Phoenix Cup.

Winner group:

The 'Linglong Team' of Peking University and Tsinghua University, the 'Chengfeng Team' of Jingchu University, the 'dark horse team' 'Riyue Team', and the 'Jiangnan Dojo Team' of Gangnam Dojo.

Loser group:

The "Fighting Team" of Shanhe University, the "Crazy Sand Team" of Tsinghua University, the "Dragon Control Team" of Jingchu University, and the "Ao Han Team" of Shuangbei University.

It is hard to imagine that both teams in the loser group were defeated by Zhilin and his team. This made the other three teams more vigilant against Zhilin and his team. In just two days, Shangguan Yan caught a lot of spies.

Shangguan Yan thought she was perfectly protected, but she didn't notice a short man with strange behavior...

The semi-finals began. Zhilin and his team did not draw the 'Spirit Dragon Team', but it was not much better. The 'Gangnam Gym Team' had that Mega evolved Kog'Maw!

Before going on stage, Xu Wu confirmed with Zhilin, "Are you sure you want to use Mega Evolution? You're not going to hide it anymore?"

Zhilin sighed, "If not, we can't defeat them in threes. The improvement from Mega Evolution is too great!"

Following behind them, Zuo Tingyun nodded, "It really can't be hidden anymore, just use it! If you two support well, we will definitely win!"

Zhu Yu nodded, "The Wind Fairy will be able to open the 'tailwind' and rainy weather!"

Xu Wu raised an eyebrow, "The opponent also needs to Mega Evolve. Gengar won't be under that much pressure. Make sure that Zapdos successfully Mega Evolves!"

Zuo Tingyun nodded and said no more.

Although according to his experience, Zhilin's mastery of Mega Evolution is not as high as the opponent's, it is not much different, and the improvement after the Mega evolution of Zapdos is stronger than that of Kog'Maw. He believes that Zhilin and Zapdos can defeat the opponent!

......

Game start,

In the first singles match, Wind Fairy VS Big Mouth, Big Mouth won, and the 'Gangnam Gym Team' scored the first point.

In the second game, Dragonite VS Metagross, Dragonite won and the 'Windrider Team' tied the score.

In the third game, Gengar VS Mantis, Gengar won and the 'Windrider Team' took the lead by one point.

In the first doubles match, Wind Sprite and Dragonite VS Mawla and Armored Bird, the 'Gangnam Gym Team' won, tying the score again.

In the second game, Wind Sprite and Gengar VS Kog'Maw and Metagross, the 'Windrider Team' won, leading by one point.

In the third game, Gengar and Draconian VS Metagross and Armored Bird, the "Windrider Team" won and took a two-point lead.

In 3V3, Gengar's Tong Ming failed to replace Kog'Maw like in the second doubles game, and the 'Gangnam Gym Team' won a narrow victory, with the score coming to 4:4.

By the time it came to the final three-on-one, most people were no longer optimistic about the 'Wind Riding Team'. After all, Mega Mouth's strength was obvious to all.

The battle is about to break out.

Xu Wu immediately ordered Gengar. Gengar's purple figure was mysterious and disappeared in a flash, and the next moment he appeared in front of Armored Bird, with a shadow ball condensed in his hand.

Not to be outdone, Zhu Yu commanded the Wind Fairy to unleash a guaranteed-hit Magic Leaf attack. The green leaves shot towards Metagross like sharp arrows. Each leaf shimmered with a green light, imbued with powerful grass-type energy.

Yu Shuwen and Duan Haoran quickly directed Metagross and Armorbird to defend. Metagross cast a wall of light to block the Wind Fairy's magic leaves. The leaves struck the wall with a crisp sound, and only a few managed to penetrate the wall before striking Metagross. However, the powerful metallic aura emanating from Metagross's massive body prevented the strikes from causing much damage.

After all, this system's bonus has little effect on attribute resistance.

Armored Bird spread its wings and used high-speed movement to avoid Gengar's Shadow Ball. It flew into the sky and circled. The Shadow Ball drew a purple trail and finally hit the ground with a dull thud, splashing a cloud of dirt.

Seeing the situation was dire, Lubo decisively ordered Big Mouth to provide assistance. Big Mouth opened its massive mouth and unleashed a crushing attack, lunging at Gengar. Its jaws agape, revealing sharp teeth that seemed poised to crush anything. Its form was like an arrow shot from a bow, packing a powerful punch.

Xu Wu quickly ordered Gengar to dodge.

Gengar's figure flashed and disappeared again, appearing behind Big Mouth. Gengar took the opportunity to use hypnosis to try to make Big Mouth fall asleep. An invisible force emanated from Gengar's body and attacked Big Mouth.

However, Lubo reacted quickly, commanding Big Mouth to use the defensive move, blocking Gengar's hypnosis. A golden glow surrounded Big Mouth's body, like a protective shield. The hypnosis smoke hit the shield and dissipated instantly.

At this time, the Wind Fairy successfully held back Metagross and Armorbird.

But Yu Shuwen and Duan Haoran were not easily pinned down. Yu Shuwen commanded Metagross to unleash its Comet Fist. All four Metagross arms swung simultaneously, their powerful force striking the Wind Fairy like a comet. Metagross's fists, gleaming with dazzling light, streaked across the night sky like meteors. Each punch held immense power, seemingly capable of devastating everything.

Seeing this, the wind fairy immediately used its speed advantage to dodge, flying lightly in the air like a leaf drifting in the wind.

Duan Haoran attacked simultaneously, commanding the armored bird to launch an aerial attack. The armored bird spread its sharp wings, unleashing a steel-like wing. Silver light gleamed in the rain, slashing towards the wind fairy like two sharp blades. The armored bird's wings were like steel blades, carrying a sharp aura. They streaked through the air, leaving silver trails in their wake. Their speed was so great that it was difficult to dodge.

The Wind Fairy quickly cast Guard, forming a green barrier to block the Armorbird's steel wings. The barrier radiated a green light, like a solid shield. The steel wings struck the protective barrier with a crisp sound, but were unable to penetrate the formidable defense.

Gengar seized the opportunity to unleash his will-o'-the-wisp. Purple flames burned amidst the rain, attempting to burn Metagross and Armored Bird. The will-o'-the-wisp emitted an eerie purple glow, swaying and drifting towards Metagross and Armored Bird, as if possessing a life of its own.

Seeing that it couldn't escape, the giant metal monster used Refresh to remove the burning effect caused by the will-o'-the-wisp.

The Armored Bird used its high speed to dodge the will-o'-the-wisp attacks. It moved swiftly through the air, like lightning. Its figure appeared and disappeared in the rain, making it difficult to predict.

In just a few seconds, the two sides had fought several times, and what was the electric dragon doing?

It is strengthening itself, charging and releasing the electric field. This is very necessary. After Mega Evolution, the speed of the electric dragon will become slower, and it may be too late.

At this point, the battle had already entered a white-hot stage. Wind Sprite and Gengar continuously displayed various moves, fiercely confronting Metagross and Armored Bird.

Zhu Yu and Xu Wu worked closely together.

Zhu Yu commanded the Wind Fairy to perform a charming trick, trying to confuse Metagross and Armorbird. The Wind Fairy's eyes flashed pink, and its cute appearance was very charming. Armorbird was momentarily distracted and fell into this charming trap, but Metagross was genderless and was not affected.

But that was enough. Xu Wu took the opportunity to command Gengar to unleash the Dark Wave. The Dark Wave emanated a purple light, like a dark vortex. With immense destructive force, it swept towards Metagross and Armorbird.

Yu Shuwen and Duan Haoran hurriedly commanded Metagross and Armorbird to resist.

Metagross used its mental strength to resist the influence of the evil waves.

The Armored Bird continued to use its high-speed movement to dodge the attacks of the Evil Wave. The Armored Bird moved swiftly in the air, its figure appearing and disappearing in the air, making it difficult to predict.

However, Windy and Gengar's attacks didn't cease. Windy unleashed Leaf Storm, sending countless leaves swirling through the rain toward Metagross and Armored Bird. Each leaf shimmered green, imbued with a powerful force of nature, as they swirled through the air, forming a massive storm.

Gengar cast a curse, gradually weakening the power of Metagross and Armored Bird. When the curse was cast, a black aura emanated from Gengar's body and drifted towards Metagross and Armored Bird.

Facing the incoming Leaf Storm, Metagross used a heavy charge. Its huge body was like a giant cannonball, rushing towards Wind Elf and Gengar with a powerful impact, trying to break their defenses.

The Armored Bird counterattacked with its steel wings, colliding with the Leaf Storm. Its wings were like steel blades, carrying a sharp aura. As they collided with the Leaf Storm, a powerful energy wave erupted, vibrating the surrounding air.

The power of the Pokémon on both sides continued to collide, making loud noises.

At the same time, the Electric Dragon was also fighting with the Big Mouth.

Lu Bo shouted loudly: "Big Mouth, use Bite!" Big Mouth rushed out like a red lightning, opened his huge mouth, revealing sharp teeth, and pounced on the electric dragon.

Zhilin calmly commanded, "Electric Dragon, get out of the way, then use 100,000 Volts!" The Electric Dragon nimbly dodged the attack, easily avoiding the attack. Immediately, the electricity in its body instantly erupted, and a powerful 100,000-volt burst shot towards the attack.

The electricity streaked through the air, crackling. Big Mouth stopped in his tracks, trying to dodge. However, the 100,000-volt current was incredibly fast, and despite his best efforts, he was still partially struck by it. He roared, and a plume of black smoke billowed from his body.

Lu Bo did not panic. He ordered again: "Big Mouth, use Iron Head!"

Big Mouth's eyes widened, a metallic luster appeared on his head, and then he rushed towards the electric dragon like a cannonball.

Zhilin frowned slightly and quickly commanded, "Lightning Dragon, use Dragon Wave!" The Lightning Dragon opened its mouth, and a blue dragon-shaped energy wave gushed out. The dragon-shaped energy wave collided fiercely with the iron head of the big mouth boy, making a loud noise.

The powerful energy surge caused half the field to tremble slightly, and both Pokémon were forced back several steps by the recoil. The current in Dragonite surged even more violently, while Kog'Maw panted heavily, his eyes still brimming with fighting spirit.

After a few exchanges of blows, both sides reached a stalemate. Zhilin took a deep breath and said to Zhu Yu, "It's time!"

Zhu Yu gave the order, and the Wind Fairy sprang into action, unleashing its Tailwind move. Suddenly, a strong gust of wind blew, dramatically increasing the speed of the Pokémon. The Wind Fairy's tiny body danced in the wind, shifting the currents. The powerful wind roared past, seemingly blowing away any obstacle.

Immediately afterwards, the Wind Fairy performed the Rainmaking technique, and the sky instantly became overcast with dark clouds. Raindrops fell like a curtain of beads, shrouding the entire arena in a hazy mist.

Lu Bo raised an eyebrow, not understanding what the opponent was trying to do. However, the opportunity was fleeting. He seized the opportunity when the opponent changed the weather and strengthened himself, raised his left hand, and shouted: "Big Mouth, Mega Evolution!"

Zhilin unbuckled the belt of his military coat, placed his left hand on the keystone at his waist, and shouted loudly, "Dianlong, Mega Evolve!"

Two rainbow lights flashed by, and dazzling white light appeared on the bodies of the Electric Dragon and the Big Mouth at the same time!
