Pokémon: This trainer loves to argue with people

"By the way, I have something else to announce to you today."

Hu Zhiyuan said after calming down.

"The date for the first Dragon Country University Student Championship has been confirmed. It will open on New Year's Day."

"what?"

"New Year?"

"Didn't it say it was the beginning of the year?"

Everyone asked in surprise.

"Isn't New Year's Day the beginning of the year?"

"So the beginning of the year is the beginning of this year?"

Lin Rui initially thought that the beginning of the year would have to wait until after the Chinese New Year, but he didn’t expect it to be New Year’s Day.

This means that there is less than a week left until the opening day of the competition.

Knowing that the competition was getting closer, everyone trained harder, hoping to improve their strength as much as possible before the competition began.

The next day.

Qin Yumo sent someone to deliver the mega evolution stone and evolution key stone ordered by Hu Zhiyuan.

Under Lin Rui's guidance, Qiao Jingjing and Zhong Lingling also began special training for mega evolution.

Before I knew it, a week had passed.

……

1 month 1 day.

Just as people across the country were celebrating New Year's Day, the first Longguo College Student Championship officially kicked off at the Longguo Gymnasium in the imperial capital.

Representative teams from 16 universities across the country gathered together and will compete for 20 days to determine the final champion.

At this point, the game hasn't started yet.

But the entire venue was already packed with people.

Those who came to watch the game included not only local citizens and students from the host Imperial Capital Elf University, but also cheerleaders from 15 other universities.

Not only that, as it was the first Dragon Country College Student Championship, a large number of media also attended.

The Pokémon League even launched a live broadcast, allowing those who were unable to watch the event in person to watch the entire event through various channels.

"The Emperor is great, the greatest for me!"

"Big Devil, big Devil, fight for the first place!"

"Jiangnan University, who can compete with us?"

"..."

Listening to the cheers from the cheerleading teams from various universities at the scene, Lin Rui was puzzled as to why he didn't hear any cheers from their own school.

At this moment, a burst of drum beating suddenly sounded at the scene, drowning out the shouts from all the colleges and universities.

Lin Rui and others looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the cheerleading team of Dragon Country National Defense Elf University in the audience had set up two drums.

Not only that, there is also the king of musical instruments, suona.

"Could it be that the principal has brought people from the folk music society here?" Wang Yu asked awkwardly.

"I think so." Lin Rui was speechless.

……

After the grand opening ceremony, contestants from 16 universities were anxiously waiting for the group draw results backstage.

According to the league's earlier evaluation of the 16 teams, they were divided into four levels according to their respective strengths, namely A, B, C, and D.

Level A is the seeded teams, namely Dragon Country National Defense Elf University, Imperial Capital Elf University, Magic Capital Elf University and Jiangnan Elf University.

The universities classified as Class B include Shencheng Elf University, Pengcheng Elf University, Guangxi Elf University and Shunan Elf University.

……

According to the competition rules, only one team is allowed in each level per group.

That is to say, teams from the four levels A, B, C, and D will be divided equally into four groups.

The drawing ceremony begins.

The staff came on stage to draw lots.

The first one drawn was Magic City Elf University, which was assigned to Group A.

The next group drawn was the Imperial Capital Elf University, which was in Group B.

Then there is the Dragon Kingdom National Defense Elf University, in Group C.

The last A-level university, Jiangnan University, automatically came to Group D.

……

The drawing ceremony was over soon, and the universities that were in the same group as the Dragon Country National Defense Elf University included the Guangxi Elf University, the Minnan Elf University, and the South China Elf University.

Lin Rui and others didn't know much about these three universities, but they were not too worried.

After all, their strength is there.

The first match to be played was a match in Group A, between the Magic City Elf University and the Shencheng Elf University.

The first game of Dragon Country National Defense Elf University was scheduled for the second game in the afternoon.

According to the competition system, the first two weeks are group matches, with 4 games played every day.

The last week is the knockout stage until the final champion is decided.

Soon, the first game began.

The first person to appear from Magic City University was a girl, and the first Pokémon she sent out was actually the Ice Doll.

The Ice Doll is the evolved form of the Galar form of the Magic Wall Doll, and possesses the attributes of ice and supernatural powers.

Magic Wall Dolls are very common in China, but Magic Wall Dolls in Galar form are rare.

According to what Lin Rui learned, the Galar region in the Pokémon animation corresponds to the real Great Britain, which is England in Europe.

So if you want to evolve the Magic Wall Doll into the Ice Doll, you must first go to England and let Monini evolve into the Galar form of the Magic Wall Doll.

"He is indeed a student of Magic City Elf University. He even has an ice-walking doll. It seems that he has been abroad."

There was a hint of sourness in Lin Rui's tone.

He has never been abroad, either in his previous life or in this life.

On the other side, a boy came on the court from Shencheng University.

The first Pokémon he sent out was Entomo, one of the three starter Fire Pokémon.

"It's interesting. The two Pokémon restrain each other." Lin Rui said with a smile.

King Yanwu has the fire attribute, which can restrain the ice attribute of the Ice-Walking Doll.

The Ice-Treading Doll has superpower attributes, which can just restrain the fighting attributes of King Yanwu.

So this game will be interesting.

The final result was just as Lin Rui had guessed. The two fought very fiercely.

However, the Magic City Elf University was more skilled and won the first round, and finally won the first individual battle.

Magic City Elf University has 1 point.

After that, both sides won and lost.

After the individual competition, Magic City Elf University temporarily leads Shencheng Elf University with a total score of 2:1.

Next is the ring battle.

The Magic City Elf University actually sent out their captain directly.

It was the man with glasses that Lin Rui and others had seen in the Qinghai Secret Realm before.

"It's him!"

"We have to observe him carefully. We may meet them in the next knockout round."

Duanmu Hong said with a serious expression.

……

After half an hour.

When the last Pokémon of Shencheng Pokémon University participating in the ring battle fell, Magic City Pokémon University won the ring battle with only one person, changing the score to 5:1.

"This guy is quite strong. He only used three Pokémon to defeat 18 Pokémon of Shencheng University."

"It seems that it is almost impossible for Shencheng University to turn the tables, unless they have a backup plan."

Backstage, Duanmu Hong, Wang Yu, and Lin Rui said.
