I'm not a Pokémon succubus.

Caidou still had a nonchalant expression, but her tone was very serious.

"I only won by a narrow margin. Your Blaziken's kicking skills are really strong. If that move had landed on Kaili, I'm afraid Kaili would have suffered."

"Hahaha......"

The trainer of Blaziken couldn't help laughing when he heard that, and the resentment of defeat dissipated unknowingly.

Caidou is such a person.

As a trainer and fighter, she takes battles and sparring very seriously and meticulously, and can do everything in a methodical manner.

However, no matter when, she always has humility and politeness in her heart, even though her strength is already very good.

The so-called true master always has the heart of an apprentice, and he is talking about people like Caidou.

"I'll take my leave now."

After the Blaziken trainer saluted Caidou, he took his partner's Poké Ball and hurried to the facility in the gym that restored Pokémon's energy.

Caidou's super-powerful cross-slash is no joke...

His Flamingo is in dire need of medical attention.

"Then, the champion of this year's World Martial Arts Tournament is Caidou!"

On the high platform, the commentator called out Caidou's name loudly.

"She will be qualified to follow Master Mashide to the Lonely Armor Island for training!"

As soon as these words were spoken, all the contestants present immediately cast envious glances at Caidou.

Master Ma may not be well-known in the outside world, but all the contestants present are experienced fighters.

The name of Master Ma is truly well-known to them.

That's a true master...

However, the reward for the World's No. 1 Martial Arts Tournament, although it seems to be just to follow Master Ma to the Armor Island to practice for a period of time.

However, that was equivalent to becoming a nominal disciple of Master Ma's martial arts school...

How could Master Ma not teach her carefully?

Even trainers who are gym leaders would be eager to obtain such an honor.

Look, colored beans are a good example.

"Xiao Caicai, you're really amazing~"

At this time, accompanied by the noise of the scene, the master who had attracted the attention of all the contestants finally appeared on the field, stroking his beard.

"Master Ma Shide!"

Seeing Master Ma walking towards them, Caidou on the field immediately bowed to Master Ma very seriously.

"Ah~ There's no need to be so serious. Kids these days are so polite."

In a strange tone, Master Ma smiled at Caidou.

He stood in front of Caidou, and his kind smile immediately disappeared, replaced by a serious look.

"You are the champion of the Tenkaichi Martial Arts Tournament and have earned the right to train on the Solitary Island of Armor. That's true, but... you haven't truly triumphed in the end."

"Ok!"

Upon hearing this, a nervous look appeared on Caidou's face.

She sat up straight, but there was a hint of excitement in her eyes.

"Haha~ It seems you already know."

Seeing her like this, Master Ma laughed again.

Then he faced the audience.

"Everyone, there's one last fight left in the world's number one martial arts tournament!"

As soon as these words were spoken, many people in the audience began to whisper.

Many of them had learned in advance about the official arrangements of the World's No. 1 Martial Arts Tournament for Ai Xia, and many of them came today specifically for Coach Ai.

So, finally waiting until this moment, many people are waiting for Master Ma's next words with anticipation and excitement.

"at the same time......"

A fierce look appeared on Master Ma's old face.

"The final battle won't be a typical Pokémon battle, but a no-holds-barred fight!"

As soon as these words were spoken, they caused an uproar at the scene.

Countless people, including Caidou, looked at Master Ma in great surprise.

What is indiscriminate fighting?

That's a mode where the Trainer and Pokémon play together, fighting together, and can use any means necessary to fight, even if the Pokémon directly attacks the Trainer.

Because this mode is extremely dangerous, it has gradually been replaced by regular Pokémon battles in recent years.

Unexpectedly, Master Ma brought the indiscriminate fighting that had been dormant in regular competitions for many years to the world's number one martial arts tournament again.

this......

How exciting!

Yes, just excited.

Master Ma’s words caused the entire gymnasium to boil.

The main feature of the indiscriminate wild battle is excitement, and the excitement is several times that of regular Pokémon battles.

Audiences rarely get to see such exciting battles, but when they see it here today, everyone is of course looking forward to it.

"Indiscriminate wild fighting..."

Caidou clenched her fists and her body trembled slightly.

These days, she has also been browsing the Internet and collecting some information about Ai Guidance.

Among them, Caidou naturally saw quite a few videos of Coach Ai fighting wild Pokémon.

In the video, the scene of a slender and handsome young man knocking a wild Nidoking unconscious with one punch is still vivid in my mind.

Caidou knew that Coach Ai was good at indiscriminate fighting.

He is very powerful.

However, Caidou's trembling at this moment was not due to fear or nervousness.

But excitement...

Being able to fight against powerful people is Caidou’s lifelong pursuit!

She will not retreat because of the enemy's strength. On the contrary, it is precisely because the enemy is strong that she will fight even harder with all her strength.

This is Caidou's awareness as a fighter... a warrior.

"Heh~"

Looking at Caidou who was trembling with excitement beside him, Master Ma smiled with relief.

What a talented person.

She went to the Armor Island, maybe she could once again motivate everyone in the martial arts school to practice...

just.

"Hmm." Thinking of Caidou's opponent, Master Ma showed a complicated expression.

I hope this little girl won’t become depressed because of the brat who fried fish.

"Otherwise, I, the old man, would suffer a great loss..."

Master Ma muttered to himself.

"Go and restore the strange force to its normal state."

Master Ma gave Caidou some instructions, with a complicated expression on his face, and said, "After all, your opponent is not someone you can easily deal with."

"Yes!"

Caidou bowed earnestly to Master Ma, then she retracted her strange strength and ran impatiently towards the Pokémon treatment facility.

The final battle will begin in an hour, and the venue will still be here.

Master Ma and Coach Ai met in the lounge prepared for the contestants of the World No. 1 Martial Arts Tournament.

"Seeing is believing, little Xia Xia."

I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but Aixia always felt that Master Ma was gritting his teeth when he said this.

"Ok?"

Aixia couldn't help but recall her interactions with Master Ma, wondering if she had ever had any unpleasant experiences with him.

Maybe not......

I didn't even know him before, except that I used Bulbasaur to sleep with one of his team's Pokémon when I was recording the video footage of Team Sunny last time.

Master Ma shouldn’t hold a grudge for this, right?

"I've long heard of your name, Master Ma."

Aisha smiled and bowed.

His bow was not very standard, mainly because he himself was not a professional fighter.

Master Ma looked at him, sighed, and walked over to correct Coach Ai's incorrect bowing gesture.

"Look, this is the standard bow."

"Oh, that's it!"

Coach Ai copied Master Ma's movements exactly and improved his own movements.

Seeing this, Master Ma's expression became satisfied.

This kid looks pleasing to the eye...

The comprehension is also good.

If only he could change his habit of sprinkling sleeping powder everywhere during battles.

"Hey......"

When Master Ma thought of the memory of his last battle where Coach Ai used Bulbasaur to hypnotize him, his blood pressure began to rise.

Helplessly, he was too embarrassed to lose his temper with a junior and could only sigh.

"Hey."

Coach Ai, who had no idea how much damage his actions had caused to Master Ma, just laughed.

As a result, the atmosphere between the old and the young, who were originally strangers, became much more harmonious.

"Xiao Xiaxia."

Master Ma called Ai to coach him.

This strange name made Aisha's expression a little complicated.

However, when he thought about the famous Galar champion Dandi, who was also called "Little Dandan" by Master Ma, Coach Ai felt much more balanced.

"what happened?"

"I heard that you knew that kid Sonia?"

"Ah, indeed."

When the person she knew was mentioned, Aixia relaxed a lot.

He knew that Master Ma was Dan Di's master, and Sonia was Dan Di's childhood sweetheart.

Aisha immediately told Master Ma that she had met Sonia at a seminar in Miare City. They were both very interested in the myths and legends of the Galar region that had been passed down since ancient times. They also agreed to go to the Galar region together to study history when they had time.

"Oh~"

A look of understanding appeared on Master Ma’s old face.
