I, the fighting party, became Xiaozhi's golden finger

At the exit, a dazzling light shone down, like a gift from the gods, warm and bright. They couldn't help but squint their eyes, feeling the sudden light. As they gradually adapted to the light, they couldn't help but marvel at the scene before them.

On the other side of the exit was a green grassland with flowers blooming and dancing.

In the distance, the green mountains were like dark blue, surrounded by clouds and mist, like a beautiful painting. They seemed to be in a dreamlike world, their hearts filled with joy and excitement.

Xiaozhi couldn't help but cheer loudly, his voice echoed in the empty grassland, full of pride and sense of accomplishment.

Xiaogang gently spread out the map in his hand, examining the marks and lines on it with a torch-like gaze. His fingers slid gently on the map, as if looking for a mysterious path to an unknown world.

He took a deep breath, then slowly spoke, revealing a hint of firmness and confidence in his voice: "According to Miss Xijiana's guidance, Yantu Mountain should be located to the west of us."

His words were like a bright guiding star, lighting up the direction of progress in everyone's hearts. Xiaozhi and Xiaoyao came forward, staring at the mark on the map.

Xiaogang's finger drew an elegant arc on the map, and finally stopped at the position representing Yantu Mountain.

His voice was full of determination and enthusiasm: "As long as we move forward in this direction, I believe we will reach Yantu Mountain soon."

At this moment, they seemed to have seen the magnificent scenery of Yantu Mountain and felt the excitement and anticipation of the new journey.

They took a deep breath, then stood shoulder to shoulder, ready to meet new challenges and adventures.

During their journey, the scenery was picturesque and beautiful. The rising sun cast a golden glow, illuminating every inch of land, making every leaf on the earth shine.

The trees along the way were lush and green, as if they were a green barrier of nature, shielding them from the scorching sun. The clear stream gurgled under the shade of the trees, making a pleasant sound, like a symphony of nature.

However, as they continued to move westward, the weather change became increasingly obvious.

The sun was getting higher and higher, and the temperature was rising with it. The scorching sun was ruthlessly burning the earth, as if it was going to turn everything into nothingness. The heat waves in the air were rolling in, suffocating people.

The leaves turned yellow under the sun, and the land was cracked due to lack of water.

Even in such an environment, they still moved forward firmly.

The sweat soaked their clothes and attached to their faces, but they did not retreat at all.

As the saying goes, only after experiencing the scorching sun can we cherish the coolness and beauty ahead more.

Although the weather was hot, their hearts were full of enthusiasm...

Of course, in the physical sense.

"The scorching sun is like a fire burning the body..."

Xiaozhi stood under the sparse shade of the trees, panting slightly, sweat sliding down his forehead and wetting the clothes on his back.

He looked around and saw that the land around him was dry and cracked, without even a trace of wind, as if the whole world was imprisoned by this heat.

The sun shone through the gaps in the leaves, sprinkling on his face, but it could not bring him any coolness.

His skin was so hot that it seemed to be able to fry an egg. He couldn't help but cover his eyes with his hands, but even so, the hot light still shone through his fingers, making his eyes hurt.

Xiaozhi's heart was full of helplessness and anxiety.

Such weather was a huge test for their journey. He was worried that his physical strength would be exhausted, and he was even more worried that other people in the team would be affected.

However, he also understood that retreating at this time was not a solution to the problem. He had to stick to it, for the team and for himself.

Xiaozhi took a deep breath and tried to calm his restless mood.

He raised his head and looked into the distance.

There was their destination for this trip - Yantu Mountain.

Although it was still out of reach at the moment, Xiaozhi believed that as long as they worked together, they would be able to overcome the difficulties in front of them and reach the other side of their hearts.

It was on this hot afternoon that Xiaoyao suddenly stopped. She squatted down and gently placed her hands on the ground, as if listening to the heartbeat of the earth.

"Strange..."

Xiaoyao's eyes revealed a hint of sharpness and alertness, as if she had sensed something unusual.

Xiaozhi asked, "What's wrong?"

"Xiaozhi, Xiaogang, did you hear the dog barking?" Xiaoyao asked softly.

Xiaozhi and Xiaogang also stopped when they heard this. They pricked up their ears and listened carefully to the sounds around them.

The air seemed to be filled withA strange breath made people tense their nerves involuntarily.

"Woof woof woof!"

"Woof woof woof!!"

"Yes, I heard it too." Xiaozhi responded in a low voice, with a firm light in his eyes.

Xiaogang also nodded, his brows furrowed, as if thinking about the hidden meaning behind the dog's barking.

The three of them formed a semicircle and observed the surroundings vigilantly. Although the dog's barking was weak, it was particularly clear in this quiet afternoon.

It seemed to come from a corner in the distance, and it seemed to come directly from the land under their feet.

"What kind of dog could it be? This place is still far away from the town." Xiaoyao murmured to himself, his heart full of confusion and curiosity.

Xiaozhi and Xiaogang also fell into deep thought. They knew that the appearance of the dog's barking was by no means accidental.

In the distant sky, a powerful and passionate voice cut through the quiet air, as if an invisible force was stirring everything around. The voice was full of expectation and encouragement, as if it could ignite the blood and passion in people's hearts.

"Wangcai, come on! Run! We must win the Yantu Mountain Dog Fighting Competition!" The voice rolled like thunder, shaking everyone's heart.

Inspired by this voice, a majestic wolfhound appeared in everyone's sight.

It has strong limbs and full muscles, exuding an invincible domineering aura. Its eyes flashed with a firm light, as if it was ready to meet the challenge.

When Xiaozhi's eyes fell on the majestic Pokémon, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

It has a burly figure and clear muscle lines, like a sculpture-like work of art.

The wolfhound's hair is thick and smooth, showing a deep gray, as if it is a gift from nature. Under the sunlight, its hair flashes with a metallic luster, giving people a strong visual impact. Its eyes are bright and reveal a wild cunning and wit.
