Pokémon: What should I do? My father-in-law always wants to tear me apart

"Yandu team, green grass field."

As the Yandu team was announced to have won the green grass field, Nima felt a little surprised, and his thoughts started to turn quickly.

A gleam of light flashed in Nima's eyes, and he quickly raised his head and cast a sharp gaze at Lin Yi.

This result was also unexpected for Lin Yi, but then his expression revealed a hint of understanding.

If the Qingcao venue really only gathered weaker teams, and all the strong teams were arranged to other venues, then Lin Yi almost suspected that Ruan Tianli was secretly working behind the scenes.

But Lin Yi quickly dismissed the idea.

He knew that although Nguyen Tien Li's influence could not be underestimated, any unfair behavior in such a public occasion would cause huge controversy and backlash.

Ruan Tianli would not take the risk, especially when Ruan Yaoyao was also participating in the competition.

Lin Yi thought to himself that the draw result might be just a coincidence, or more likely the organizer had deliberately balanced it in order to maintain the fairness and suspense of the competition.

After all, the charm of the game lies in uncertainty, and any team may burst out with amazing potential in any game.

As the venues for all teams were assigned, the atmosphere on the scene became more tense and expectant. On the huge display screen, the team lists for different venues began to scroll, and finally froze after random arrangement, making final preparations for tomorrow's first game.

Everyone present held their breath, their eyes fixed on the screen, afraid to miss any information. This was a kind of curiosity about the unknown, and also a nervousness about the upcoming showdown. Everyone's heartbeat was accelerating, waiting for their name and opponent to appear.

The animation on the screen finally stopped, and a series of names and pairs quickly came into view:

[Ruan Yaoyao of Qinghai team - Zhou Feng of Nantian team]

……

[Mi Yu from Magic City Team — Wu Xiao from Imperial City Team]

……

[Xingzhu of Yandu team - Songci of Qinghai team]

……

The audience's whispers gradually became more and more enthusiastic, and they were full of anticipation and curiosity about the upcoming game.

Everyone's face was filled with excitement, as if they had already witnessed the fierce confrontation and wonderful moments on the field.

“I’m the first one!”

Ruan Yaoyao looked at her opponent, a boy with an unremarkable appearance, and felt a little surprised. She didn't expect that she would be the first contestant to appear.

She felt a little nervous, but also had an urge to try it out.

"What the hell? I hit a girl?"

At the same time, when Ye Feng saw that his opponent was a beautiful girl, he couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

However, his admiration was quickly interrupted by a kick on the butt by Su Su, obviously because of Su Su's jealousy and anger.

This scene caused a burst of laughter from the people around and added a touch of relaxation to the tense atmosphere.

Lin Yi was examining her opponent, a pretty girl with a ponytail.

He didn't have much impression of this opponent, nor did he find her name in the list provided by Lin Wan'er.

Although he thought it wouldn't be too difficult to advance in the first round, he also knew that he couldn't be careless during the game.

After quickly browsing the matchup list, everyone discovered that the other members of the Qinghai team did not seem to have encountered any strong opponents on the list, except...

Everyone silently looked at the girl in the corner, Song Ci, who didn't have a strong presence, with worry in their eyes.

In the first round, she will face the captain of the strong Yandu team, a powerful opponent. This cruel reality makes everyone present worry for Song Ci.

If nothing unexpected happens, her journey to the Little Phoenix King Cup will come to an end here.

Song Ci felt the concerned gazes from her teammates. She was so nervous that her lips trembled slightly. She was so nervous that she could almost feel the discomfort in her stomach.

However, at this moment, Lin Yi's voice broke the silence, and his words were full of encouragement and wisdom.

"Relax and don't be nervous."

Lin Yi's voice was gentle but firm. He continued to analyze the situation for Song Ci.

"Your advantage is that Yandu's captain may underestimate you. If it were me, I would not go all out in a game that seems to be a sure win, in case other opponents see through my tactics. So, you still have a chance."

"Ah."

Song Ci took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled, her eyes flashing with determination, and nodded to show her understanding.

"I understand. Thank you, Captain. Even if I can't beat him, I will do my best to force him to reveal his hidden cards."

"Hey?"

At this moment, Ruan Yaoyao suddenly realized something. She was slightly stunned, then pointed at herself awkwardly.

"Well...I think I'm the captain."

When Song Ci heard this, a hint of embarrassment appeared on his face.

She scratched her head, trying to cover up her negligence.

In the Qinghai team, Lin Yi plays a core role in both formulating tactics and calming the team members' emotions, which makes Song Ci inadvertently regard him as the captain.

“Um… sorry, I forgot.”

Song Ci said a little embarrassedly. She realized that she had made a low-level mistake, and a feeling of guilt surged in her heart.

Ruan Yaoyao was silent for a moment, then said softly: "...It's okay."

Although she appeared calm on the surface, she was thinking about many things in her heart.

She realized that her status and influence in the team might not be as good as Lin Yi's, which made her begin to doubt whether she was suitable for the position of captain.

She even thought that maybe she should give the position of captain to the more capable Lin Yi.

“Pah.”

At this time, Lin Yi noticed Ruan Yaoyao's thoughts. He patted her thin shoulders gently and shook his head at her, indicating that he disagreed with her idea.

Ruan Yaoyao stopped worrying when she saw this, she understood what Lin Yi meant.

When she proposed to be the captain before, Lin Yi had no objection.

Although he didn't know much about tactics, strategies, etc., since Lin Yi didn't object, it meant that he should have his own considerations.

Perhaps he thought she was up to the job, or perhaps he believed she would grow into a bigger role.

……

With the final announcement of the match schedule, the opening ceremony of the Little Phoenix Cup gradually came to an end.

The tense atmosphere on the field and the anticipation in the audience intertwined to create a unique atmosphere.

The commentator's voice reached a climax at this moment. His passionate speech was like a heat wave, sweeping across the entire venue and igniting the enthusiasm of everyone present.

"Ladies and gentlemen, let us welcome the upcoming fierce showdown with the warmest applause!"

The commentator's voice was sonorous and powerful, and every word was full of power and expectation.

The audience was infected by this enthusiasm and stood up one after another. The applause was like thunder, echoing throughout the entire venue.

As the applause died down, the audience began to leave in an orderly manner. They discussed the upcoming game in twos and threes, sharing their opinions and predictions.

Some viewers excitedly discussed their favorite teams and players, while others analyzed every detail on the match schedule, trying to predict the outcome of the game.

At this moment, whether it is the contestants or the audience, everyone's heart is filled with anticipation and excitement.

The Little Phoenix King Cup, a stage that brings together many newcomers, will witness the birth of countless wonderful moments.
