Chapter 675: Teacher Lu's home visit! The Hezhong trip is over
Under the watchful eyes of the public, the semi-finals of the World Championship Youth Cup are about to begin.
There is still half an hour before the official competition starts.
Manchong stood in front of the door of the guest lounge and took a deep breath as if he was mustering up his courage.
It has been three days since I came to Longmu Town... and I still haven't talked to Teacher Lu.
Every time I saw him surrounded by a crowd, I wanted to go up and ask him if he still remembered me, but it seemed that Mr. Lu had too many students...
Just like Professor Oak... He clearly remembered that I helped take care of the Gecko, but in the end he still gave it to someone else...
Those memories flashed by, and Manchong, with his smooth green hair hanging down, tugged at his shoulder straps, ready to go backstage to prepare for the semi-finals.
At this moment, the door was pushed open and a ray of light came in, and the head of the Blastoise wearing sunglasses popped out from inside.
"Blade Turtle?" Manchong said softly.
"Ka-me." Blastoise nodded slightly.
I noticed someone was peeping at the door, and almost blasted them out with a water cannon... If you have something to say, come in and speak!
"You, you know me? I am a student of, um... Teacher Lu from Yuhong College." Manchong spoke incoherently.
"Kamei?" Blastoise looked a little surprised.
I can use waveguide to distinguish them... How can the lord not recognize them! Manchong's eyes light up slightly, and he nodded stiffly, "Excuse me!"
"Neither Manchong nor Shinji came to see you?" Shirona said with her back to the door, sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed.
Lu Ye sat on the single sofa on the right, facing the door and staring at Sirona, and said, "Shinji is busy exchanging techniques with Xiaozhi."
"I have run into Manchong a few times, but he always avoids me... Maybe he thinks I'm too low-brow and doesn't want to acknowledge me as his master?"
"You know that too." Sirona laughed.
"That's impossible... I remember that this kid is also a fighting party." Lu Ye said puzzledly.
Man Chong didn't expect to hear his teacher talking about him. A warm feeling flowed through his heart. He knocked on the door and whispered, "Teacher Lu, the Sirona champion..."
The two of them looked at him at the same time, full of fear and anticipation of returning to school to face a strict teacher, and said nervously:
"I, I'm Manchō. I heard that you were the guest of this competition, so... I came to meet you."
"Of course I know you are full!"
Teacher Lu smiled, stood up and looked at Man Chong carefully, nodded and said: "Not bad...Your body is much stronger now."
"It's because of the recovery treatment." He smiled shyly, "Also, Aledo helped me a lot."
"Why did you think of coming to me today?"
"I, I thought..."
Seeing Man Chong's hesitant expression, Lu Ye patted Man Chong on the shoulder and said:
"Let's not talk about this anymore. In the next battle, do your best!"
"The significance of Pokémon battles is not about winning or losing, but about interpreting the trainer's philosophy and the Pokémon's emotions through battles."
Lu Ye crossed his arms and said with a smile: "Of course, it would be even better if we could win."
Manchong listened to the familiar and kind teachings, nodded vigorously, and then whispered:
"I want to prove to Professor Oak, Gym Master Chisato, and the others that even I can become an excellent trainer..."
"Teacher Lu!" Man Chong raised his serious eyes, "Please witness the battle between me and Aledo!"
To Manchō, who came from an ordinary family, Ruby had always been the "governor's child," and as a result, she lived in a state of sickly inferiority and the shadow of others.
But Lu Ye knew that this boy had a strong heart. In order to make up for the shortage of resources and catch up with Youshu, he pursued hatching eggs, matching moves and individual values morbidly.
But in fact, the so-called individual value is meaningless before faith... After all, Pachirisu can become the world champion.
'Bonds' are the eternal theme of Pokémon battles.
Lu Ye was very pleased to see that Man Chong was able to find his own path - to take Aledo as his partner and grow together.
"Don't be so quick to brag." Lu Ye said, "I won't blame you if I lose. Just enjoy the process of fighting."
"I understand." Man Chong said carefully, "And... Mr. Lu, if I win, can I invite you to my house?"
"My parents have always wanted to thank you... and Master Qianli, I think you two will have a lot in common in the field of fighting!"
Chisato is Ruby's father and Manjo's neighbor. He is a tough guy who rides Rayquaza in "Special Ruby/Sapphire". His strength is said to be close to the champion level.
Lu Ye was in a delicate mood.
I don’t know if Manchong’s parents are grateful or not...but Qianli and I have absolutely no common topics!
Lu Ye: "It's no problem for you to come as a guest...but where is your home?"
"Hoenn region, Greenshade Town!" he said hopefully.
Lu Ye said "Oh" and looked up at the sky, "There is no problem with the time..."
However, are there any precautions in the Hoenn region?
Forget it...what's the harm in going there for a day or two? Will I happen to encounter a volcanic eruption or seawater backflow?
"No problem." Lu Ye put his arm around Man Chong's shoulders and said, "It all depends on your performance!"
Manchong nodded vigorously, thanked him, and left the backcourt to prepare for the next semi-final.
Lu Ye returned to the sofa and sat down. Shirona handed him an orange and glanced at it: "What are you doing?"
"I want peeled oranges."
Lu Ye sat upright and spoke in a negotiating tone.
Shirona thought for a moment, then stretched out her pink nails to dig open the orange fruit, and came forward with a smile: "Here."
"Ah——" Lu Ye opened his mouth, then was stunned: "Why did you feed it to Geng Gui?"
"Koujie~(￣～￣)" Gengar held his two little hands and chewed.
"You can also feed it to the Land Shark." Sirona said proudly.
Lu Ye glanced behind the sofa and saw Lu Shark looking impatient.
“Kaaaaaa…”
It’s so annoying. You guys show off your affection in front of me every day!
Lu Ye wisely peeled a slice of orange himself, and after thinking about it, he handed it to Shirona, who responded with a beautiful smile with a hint of mischief.
At this time, the door of the lounge was knocked again, and Lu Ye sighed, "The security of the conference is too poor."
"Maybe it's your student in the backfield again?"
Sirona's prophecy came true.
Shinji stood outside the door with dead eyes.
"Mr. Lu...Mr. Lu, please allow me to call you that."
Shinji put his hands in his trouser pockets, took them out again, folded his arms, and said:
"Thank you very much for your guidance. There is always a compromise and the right way between bond and battle."
"Anyway...Mr. Lu."
Shinji raised his eyes, "I will regard you as the direction I am chasing, and then completely crush Xiaozhi."
"Just wait and see!"
After a monologue, Shinji turned away rudely and awkwardly. Shirona smiled and put her hands on her knees:
"That child's temper is true..."
"Much better than some of our strongest opponents." Lu Ye said with emotion, "Let's go, the semi-finals are about to begin!"
** In the Youth Cup semi-finals, the first match is between Man Chong and Xiao Zhi, and the rules are 3V3.
To everyone's surprise, Pikachu, who was favored before the game, was completely crushed by the fully charged Eldorado.
Pikachu fully tells everyone what a "famous actor" is, and once again shows the "kayak" state during the BW period.
“Pika!”
After being hit by Aledo's hand knife, Pikachu staggered and spun three times, and finally turned out of his "circle eyes", fell to the ground and groaned:
"Pikachu..."
"Pikachu!" Xiaozhi rushed forward and picked up Pikachu.
Pikachu half-opened his eyes and glanced at Xiaozhi, then weakly called out, "Pikachu..."
"Pikachu has tried his best... and still can't win." Xiaozhi gritted his teeth.
I should practice harder so as not to embarrass Teacher Lu and Master Qinglu! Lu Ye sat in the guest seat with a frown on his face; Shirona looked sideways and said in surprise:
"Ash's Pikachu doesn't seem to be in good shape?"
“This is the norm.”
Lu Ye was already thinking about visiting the Hoenn region, and casually said, "It was Pikachu who lifted Xiaozhi to a height that did not belong to him."
The fully charged Alakazam won battle after battle, and after defeating Satoshi's Snake once again, it was unstoppable.
Lu Ye was in a delicate mood.
Snake, Mizuna, and Squirrel... None of Ash's starter Pokémons in Unova have evolved to the third stage. With these teammates, it's hard for Pikachu not to act!
Of course, the nature of trainers is 'double standards'.
Since his own Pokémon is very strong even before it evolves and has no intention of evolving, Teacher Lu is happy to stay in the 'baby-raising' mode.
The little dinosaur is different... In order to defeat the Blizzard King, it evolves into Shakiras. If it is stuck in the second stage and does not evolve -
Then I won’t be able to eat, which is a very sad thing.
By the way, Pokémon is ineffective against pupa-like Pokémon such as Metapod, Ironshell, Carapace, and Shakiras... The reason is obvious.
The last Pokémon sent by Ash was the leader of Unova, Crooked. Compared to the original plot, it evolved earlier and fought with Alakazam for a long time.
In the end, Crocodile defeated Aledon, and the second Poison Rose was sent out by Man Chong to win.
The Poison Rose is as timid as Manchong's personality and has always been unwilling to evolve; Manchong has no intention of forcing it to evolve.
At the Quartz Conference, there was a trumpet bud that "kung fu" appeared. It seemed to be more powerful without evolution. This case was also mentioned by Teacher Lu to Manchong.
After defeating Xiaozhi 3:1, Manchong wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked towards the judges' seat with hope in his eyes.
Lu Ye returned the gaze, smiled and nodded.
Manchong's progress is very obvious. Even though he is still far behind Luby, he is already a trainer on his own.
As for Xiaozhi...he deserved to lose!
Even the Emperor Xiu could lose in the Unova region. Lu Ye did not dare to tell Qinglu about this, otherwise Qinglu would have high blood pressure! It was understandable that the trainer from Pallet Town did not become the champion of the tournament. After all, the one they encountered in the Lily of the Valley tournament was the "dimensionality reduction strike" teacher Lu.
However, he is unable to perform at his best using Babysitter Bug and Slippery, which have lower racial values, which shows that Ash's trainer level is not high enough.
I still have to practice in a few more regions! "Did you promise to visit Fengyuan?" Sirona said softly.
"Don't worry, let's go back to Miare City first." Lu Ye said.
Teacher Lu plans to seriously consider matters concerning flying vehicles.
Regarding flying tools, obviously we have to ask the 'Dragon King' Yulongdu... Haha!
Lu Ye thought of this title, suppressed his smile, covered his mouth and coughed lightly.
I heard from Adu that the alliance will provide professional Pokémon for prosecutors and inspectors, such as the Charizard vehicle in the Alola region and the flying taxi in the Galar region.
Based on his relationship with the Alliance and Interpol, he should also have an application quota.
If possible, Mr. Lu would like to raise a Dawn Wings Steel Crow...
Because it is big and handsome, and its wings are wide enough to not fall off, it is truly the 'dream bird'! "Next, please welcome the top four contestants from Group B!" said the host.
Xiaozhi was not discouraged by losing to Man Chong...because he had already lost enough in Unova.
Manchong mentioned his mentor's name again in the interview, and his eyes were shining, which made people think of the relationship between "coach and player", and they felt emotional and respectful.
Group B is a duel between Shinji and Alice.
Adek folded his arms, with messy red hair and a serious face.
This battle even concerns the future champion of the United Alliance...
A sharp cold wind blew from the snow-capped peaks at the far end of Longmu Town.
There, heavy snow covered the Giant Cave and traces of the fierce battle where Teacher Lu commanded Reshiram.
In the open-air venue of Kagome Town, Shinji put one hand in his pocket and whispered:
"You are very strong, I can feel it... but I advise you to give up the idea of becoming a champion as soon as possible, because it is just an illusion."
Shinji also thought he would become the Sinnoh champion, but he failed in every challenge to Sirona and the Pyramid Pharaoh Kamishiro.
He heard about Alice's ideal, but that ideal was vulnerable in the face of reality.
"How can you know if you don't try?"
Alice's dark skin revealed vitality, and her dark pupils on her resolute little face glowed with light. She smiled and said, "I am different from others... because I am a genius. I will shoulder the future of more people!"
There was a commotion in the audience, and Xia Ka from Shuanglong City stared at the broadcast screen with a gleam in his eyes.
I'm amazed by your progress...Alice.
And this growth is definitely not groundless, it is closely related to the trainers and Pokémon around him.
The camera happened to focus on the black-haired young man in the guest seat. A Victini was lying on his black hair, making a cute V sign to the camera. Lu Ye raised his eyes to the lens and also made a perfunctory V sign.
Type a series of '2333' in the barrage
“Forced to open.”
"Mr. Lu, if you've been kidnapped, just blink!"
In Shuanglong City, Xia Ka stared at the broadcast screen.
It was because of this champion's example...on the frozen night in Shuanglong City, a champion seed sprouted in Alice's heart.
Shinji seemed moved by Alice's words.
Absolute self-confidence, absolute trust in Pokémon...Shinji said coldly:
"boring."
"Electric Beast, use Thunder, and take out that Dragonite!"
"Use Dragon God Dive to avoid it!"
Alice's Dragonite had a ferocious look on its face, its facial muscles tensed instantly, and its wings swept the air as it dived into the air.
Shinji suddenly saw the figure of Sirona biting Lu Shark fiercely, and said in a deep voice: "Thunder Palm!"
BANG!!
Lightning flashed across the Electric Beast's palms as it tried to hold off the diving Dragonite, but the powerful impact force knocked it back!
"Dragonite, use Fire Jet!"
Dragonite didn't listen to Alice's command at all. It withstood the electric current from the poles on the back of the electric shock monster, and punched the electric shock monster with a ferocious face! Bang! The electric shock monster used the lightning fist to take the million-ton punch of Dragonite. Shinji said coldly: "What big talk, you can't even make Dragonite obey your command completely!"
"No... no need for command, because this child and I are in tune with each other!"
Alice's eyes were clear, her fists were clenched in a praying position, and her clothes and purple braids swayed in the wind.
The gift inherited from the Dragon Homeland, the Dragon Heart!
"Wha...what." Shinji's face froze.
It's fine that Xiaozhi's Infernape can cheat, but you as a trainer are also illegal! Is it me, as Mr. Lu's student, who hasn't learned enough? The real secret is not tactics, but illegal routines! ? Under the induction of Alice's "Dragon Heart", Dragonite burst out with amazing combat power and defeated Shinji's Electric Beast.
Afterwards, Shinji used the Dodai Kamehameha to forcefully swap with Dragonite.
In the end, the King Scorpion defeated Yaya and fell in front of Alice's Dragon Head Rat.
"3:2." The referee said, "The winner is Alice!"
"That's great!" Alice cheered with a sunny smile.
Shinji put his hands in his pockets and looked down at the shaking Poké Ball. Boskodora was frustrated that he couldn't play, and Sea Slug seemed to be comforting himself.
In an instant, Shinji felt the connection between himself and the Pokémon, and murmured, "Is that so... This is what Mr. Lu said, the meaning of emotion."
Shinji raised his lips slightly, and without saying goodbye to anyone, he turned around and left the venue amid the cheers for Alice.
"Shinji!"
Shinji turned around and looked back at Xiaozhi who was panting and catching up with him, raised an eyebrow and said: "Want to fight?"
"No, I mean..."
Xiaozhi grinned: "Let's go to Kalos together! Teacher Lu said that there are new bonds and moves there, maybe we will become stronger!"
Shinji stared at Xiaozhi in silence for a while, then put his hands in his pockets and turned away.
"It's me who's getting stronger, not you."
"Also." Shinji paused, "Please thank Mr. Lu and the Sirona Champion for me. I think I understand the meaning of what the Sirona Champion said."
"Which one?"
"Life and living... Never mind, you don't understand. See you later."
Shinji's back gradually faded away.
Lu Ye put his hands on the second-floor railing and leaned forward; Shirona stood beside him with a curious look on her face.
"I thought they were going to fight each other," said Sirona.
"I think so too." Lu Ye nodded and said, "Maybe the Pokémon were just injured, considering their condition?"
"This child has become stronger..." Shirona put her hand on her chin, her eyes flashing slightly.
"Of course."
Teacher Lu said without any modesty: "Because I taught you."
Sirona: "But Xiaozhi..."
Lu Ye: "Xiaozhi was taught by Ajin, it's none of my business!"
** Shinji voluntarily gave up and did not compete with Xiaozhi for the third place.
I guess he felt that there was no need to fight with someone of Satoshi's strength.
The final battle for the championship and runner-up was between Alice and Manchong.
Even though Man Chong used tactics, rotations, and command to the extreme, he still lost to Alice's Dragonite.
"The champion of this Youth Cup has been born!"
Amid the cheers, the audience applauded and Adek put the medal on Alice's head.
"Who do you want to thank the most?" Adek asked cheerfully.
Alice made a face: "Anyway, it's not Grandpa Adek!"
Adek's chest felt tight, and the feeling of being stabbed by an arrow came back to him.
That’s not right… My personal charm shouldn’t be worse than Lu Ye and Sirona!
After the game, Lu Ye leaned against the shadow of the player's channel and looked at Man Chong, who had a gloomy expression and drooped shoulders.
"Teacher..." Manchong said with a sob.
“That’s just how the world is.”
Lu Ye said: "Efforts may be worthless in the face of talent, and there is an insurmountable gap between individuals and families...but everyone has the right to refuse to accept fate."
Man Chong's coughing became rapid, and the severe bronchitis strangled his neck. His face flushed and he could hardly speak.
Lu Ye half squatted down, trying to use the waveguide to relieve the symptoms of fullness, and said seriously: "Fate is not equal, but it is fair. You can complain, fight, and fail, but you can't fall down."
"Manchong, you are a trainer."
Crystal blue light poured into Manchong's body, the redness on his face gradually faded, and Manchong regained his breathing.
In Teacher Lu’s deep black eyes, I could see myself with tears of unwillingness in my eyes.
"As long as they don't fall down," Lu Ye said, "Trainers can create miracles."
The cheers from the outside world have nothing to do with Manchong anymore.
Manchong looked up blankly at Teacher Lu who stood up, and saw him smile kindly.
"Come on, I'll treat you to curry and rice, and then we'll discuss the home visit!"
"It's not a home visit...it's an invitation for you to be my guest." Manchong said in a low voice.
"It's all the same, haha. I'll try my best to say a few nice words!"
The two figures disappeared into the contestant channel.
The cheers faded away like the tide, the sound gradually fading away.
The Youth Cup of the World Championships has officially come to an end.
…
…
In the chat group.
"Well...at my age, I should be able to participate in the Youth Cup, right?" Ajin crossed his arms and nodded from time to time.
"You can't even beat the Frontier Zone, and you still want to participate in the World Championships?" Xiaoyin said sarcastically.
"Hey, why are you talking so harshly today?" Ajin yelled.
"Because today's special effects drama has been postponed due to force majeure." Xiaolan said with his chin in his hand: "It seems that there is abnormal weather in Fengyuan again."
"Extreme weather is too common in Hoenn." Grandpa Tiexuan laughed, "But it is also because of this that the tides and volcanic energy in Hoenn are particularly developed!"
Mr. Lu: "Don't be like that... I was planning to travel to Hoenn."
Wusong said angrily, "After the Youth Cup, we are going to travel to Hoenn?!"
"It's not the closing ceremony yet." Lu Ye said with a wry smile, "By the way, are you taking a day off today? @Wusong."
"Today is Sunday." Wusong said quietly.
"The closing ceremony hasn't started yet, which means the finals are over." Daye said.
Sirona: "Yes, the champion is Alice."
"Oh?" A'du said, "Congratulations."
Xiao Huang: "Warm congratulations!ヽ(°▽°)ノ"
"Hehe... Actually, I'm just lucky." Alice scratched her head and said, "When I met a strong opponent, Dragonite was willing to listen to my command..."
"I saw Man Chong at the Youth Cup. @Ruby," said Shafia. "He has become so strong!"
"He's naturally very talented," Ruby said proudly, "I've even helped him catch Pokémon!"
The second generation's rivals, Gold and Silver, are a combination of the mindless and unhappy.
The third generation's rival, Lu Biman Chong, is a domineering boss story of "he runs, he chases"...
There are so many unlucky kids, and the level of tragedy is comparable to N's.
Fortunately, he recovered significantly and resumed his career as a trainer.
I promised to go to Hoenn for a "home visit" to make full use of it, and it is expected to be next month.
Teacher Lu plans to return to Miare City first to prepare for the opening of the coffee shop and transportation.
After the closing ceremony, Xiaozhi stayed in Unova to prepare for the Higaki Conference a week later.
Lu Ye got on a cute private plane.
"Are you going back to work in the Sinnoh League?" Lu Ye looked at the yawning blonde beauty beside him.
"Yeah..." Sirona stretched her waist lazily, "I can't always cause trouble for Wusong."
This statement is not convincing at all!
Lu Ye looked up at the sky, reviewing this trip to Hezhong with a strange look on his face.
The vacation is almost a whole month...it's really hard for Wu Song.
But it doesn't matter.
Because future vacations will be longer!
…
Today's two-in-one (￣ε(#￣)~ In a few more episodes, Mr. Lu will be able to fly... probably.
