I just want to give the elves a home. What's wrong with that?

Time flies, and it is already the day for the Spark Cup to begin.

Li Ran and Yanyan went there together in Hong Pang's luxury car. Two familiar elves were also there. Hong Pang had lost weight to a slightly plump figure in a month. His face had distinct angles and his hair was slightly brown. His handsomeness had begun to show.

Compared to the last time, Suo Cailing's progress in collecting treasures has reached 37%. All his skills have been mastered at the intermediate level, and he has also learned a new skill - misfortunes never come singly. As for Xiao Shisan, his situation is even more lamentable.

Elf name: Eevee (female)

Strength level: Rookie level 3

Attributes: General

Skills: Impact (intermediate), Call (intermediate), Desire (beginner), Flash (advanced), Imitate (intermediate), Bite (intermediate), Pray for Rain (beginner)

Features: Adaptability (When a Pokémon uses a move with the same attribute as itself, its power will be enhanced.)

Although the improvement was not very significant, Hong Pang did not rush to improve Eevee's strength according to the training method given by Li Ran, and he really learned the water skill of praying for rain. It is said that Hong Pang did not buy the skill fruit, but let this Eevee follow a Pokémon that can pray for rain, and taught himself! Even with the assistance of the Water Stone, this Eevee's learning ability is extremely high.

"This Eevee's learning talent is too strong!"

Li Ran sighed. Although his creature had the gift of super powers, it was still too weak. After a month of training, he had only mastered the Lightning Flash to the intermediate level. However, Hong Pang's creature could improve its mastery of other skills while learning the rain-making skill that was not its own. In comparison, his own cheating was like a joke.

It's almost certain that it will evolve into Vaporeon.

"Master, our car can no longer move forward."

Uncle Li's voice brought the two back to their casual chat. The car stopped about a hundred meters away from the Spark Hall, as they could not go any further. All they could see in the sea of ​​people were moving heads.

"It's okay, Uncle Li, let's get off here and walk over."

"Uncle Li, please take care of Yanyan. Yanyan, remember to stay with Uncle Li and don't wander around. It will be troublesome if you get lost."

Li Ran and Hong Pang got off the car together, and Yanyan would go in with Uncle Li later. Since they were not participating in the competition, of course they had to stay in the audience seats.

"Don't worry, Master Li Ran."

"Okay, I will stay with Uncle Li obediently!"

Yanyan patted her chest and replied confidently, and Li Ran followed Hong Pang towards the Xinghuo Pavilion.

"This number is even more exaggerated than the last time we registered."

Hong Pang squeezed into the hall, sweating all over, and said in astonishment.

"After all, it's the first day of the opening ceremony. In addition to the trainers, there are also spectators. Once some of them are eliminated in the preliminaries, there will be a lot fewer people."

Li Ran specifically looked at the competition process. The preliminaries were exams used to test the trainers' abilities. Those who failed would be eliminated directly. After entering the official competition, a schedule and rankings would be drawn up. The trainers' resting place was a spacious space with four monitors on the stone pillar in the middle. There were limited chairs, so Li Ran and his team entered late and could only stand. He roughly counted that there were less than 50 trainers here.

“I don’t know what it means to be qualified.”

Hong Pang was a little nervous. The preliminaries were not a direct battle between trainers, but a test of Pokémon that had to pass the lord-level trainers' tests. Although he didn't know the specific content of the test, it would definitely not be easy.

"Contestants, please enter."

The loudspeaker in the lounge sounded, and under the instructions of the staff, the players lined up in an orderly manner and walked towards the competition venue.

All the trainers gathered in this open space. More than 2,000 new trainers gathered here. Many of them had confident looks on their faces. All the elites of the new generation of Xia Country were here.

"Hong Pang, you fat guy are also here to participate in the competition?"

Suddenly, a young man in luxurious clothes came over. Li Ran certainly didn't know him, but Hong Pang's face showed obvious disgust.

"None of your business, you bastard."

When the young man heard this, a vein popped out on his face, as if he had been stabbed in the heart. He uttered a cruel word and then walked away.

"You're just being stubborn now. Fatty, you've lost a little weight recently, so you can't recognize yourself anymore, right?"

"Who is this guy, so arrogant?"

Li Ran saw that this young man was obviously looking for trouble and asked.

"His name is Xiang Ze. His father has business connections with my father. The company is mainly in Country R and is very financially strong. When I first got the Suo Cai Ling, I fought him privately once. After I lost, he and other young masters mocked me for being fat. Then I called him a sissy in return, and the two of us just couldn't get along with each other anymore."

"Can your father tolerate it?"

Li Ran was a little surprised. Hong Jun seemed to be very protective of him.

"I didn't say anything. This is a personal grudge. I can handle it myself."

Li Ran still admired the courage shown by Hong Pang. Just when he was about to praise him, he stopped with his hand hanging in the air after hearing this.

"If you face him, Xiaoran, help me beat him up!"

Hong Pang frowned and continued speaking seriously.

"This guy has a Meowth, which is very powerful. I heard that his Meowth has evolved into a cat boss. As for his second Pokémon, I haven't heard about it. He has never exposed it, but it must be strong."

"So, he already has the strength close to that of an elite trainer?"

Li Ran restrained his expression. This Spark Cup might be even more difficult than he had imagined. There must be many trainers like Xiang Ze, and it is not ruled out that some trainers may have entered the elite ranks.

"Chirp!"

Bang!

Suddenly, a sharp sound was heard, accompanied by a sonic boom. The originally bright venue was quickly covered by a huge black shadow. Li Ran subconsciously raised his head and looked at the sky.

Under the sunlight, the full appearance of the elf was revealed to everyone.

It has a huge body, a pair of sharp, shiny claws, an even sharper beak, fan-shaped tail feathers, black and white hair on its chest forming an M, a determined look in its eyes, and a black and red crown on its head.

There was a human figure on its huge back. As its pair of wings were fully spread out and flapped gently, a powerful aura of a lord surged out, suppressing the trainers so much that they dared not even breathe.

The auditorium had special protection, and a layer of faint white light extended to block it, so it did not affect the spectators who came here to watch the game.

"Release your elves. I will be the referee for this preliminary round. The test is very simple. As long as your elves can withstand the pressure from my M'K'Eagle, they will pass."

The middle-aged man's voice was powerful and echoed throughout the Spark Hall.
