Chapter 839 8 Masters Elimination Tournament Begins
A week of special training passed in a flash, and on this day, at the Gongmen Arena, the Eight Masters Ranking Competition officially kicked off!
Drones pulled out colorful smoke in the sky, and a steady stream of tourists looked up to see the huge World Championships logo appear in the sky.
Outside the gates of the Palace Arena, Ash and Serena looked up and watched as a formation of Rotom drones flew over the arena.
"It's so lively..." Serena couldn't help but sigh.
"It's a world-class competition after all." Xiaozhi smiled confidently, his eyes far-reaching.
In Alola, at Xiaozhi's house, Shengyang enthusiastically filled the small table with snacks and drinks. The purple-haired man lying on the sofa like Ge You was none other than our young Shinji.
This guy had a burning expression on his face. He turned his head with great effort and looked at the TV anchor, sighing softly, "Xiaozhi... must win..."
Outside the stadium, on a huge poster, eight figures, including Dan Di, Crimson Shadow, Cyan, Shirona, Yulongdu, Daigo, Ailan, and Xiaozhi, shine brightly.
Their common name is the Pokémon League, the Eight Masters!
"Found it!!" Just as Xiaozhi and the others were about to enter the door, they were stopped by a voice.
A little girl wearing a green beret rushed up to Xiaozhi.
"You're Satoshi, right? I'm Bud from Flower Town! Challenge me to a duel!"
The girl challenged for a fight with great enthusiasm, and a Nidoran beside her blew out white mist from its nostrils in a fierce manner.
"Kawaii... Xiaozhi probably doesn't know that you are the Eighth Master?" Serena squinted her eyes and laughed softly.
"I know!" Hualei raised her head and chest. "My goal is to become the league champion, so~ I'm looking for Master Eight, Xiaozhi!"
Xiaozhi smiled dotingly, "Since it's a request for a battle, of course I can't refuse."
"Great, come on, Nidoran!" the little girl shouted excitedly.
"Pikachu, please." Xiaozhi nodded with a smile.
"Pika!" Pikachu jumped from Satoshi's shoulder and came to the opposite side of Nidoran.
The battle took place directly at the gate, without Xiaozhi even choosing the venue, because he was confident that no one would be affected.
"Go, Nidoran, use the horn attack!!" Hualei is as fearless as a newborn calf.
"Oh oh!" Nidoran spread his legs and rushed towards Pikachu.
"Pikachu, Iron Tail!" Xiaozhi said casually.
"Pikachu~Pikachu!" Pikachu turned around gracefully and swung out his iron tail with a metallic glow.
BANG! Nidoran flew backwards and hit Hualei on the head. The two little cuties rolled into a ball...
"Eh? Is this the end?" Ash and Pikachu were stunned.
Just like that, you made my blood boil...
"Hahahaha, you are worthy of being the trainer I admire." Hualei climbed up while holding Nidoran.
"Xiaozhi, good luck in the competition!" Hualei winked cutely: "Don't lose before I defeat you! Ghana~"
Watching the little girl run away lively, Serena couldn't help but smile and sigh: "Xiaozhi's popularity is getting higher and higher now."
"Hahaha~ Is that so~" Xiaozhi scratched his head and entered the venue with Serena. The two separated in the contestant channel.
Serena was going to the friends and family seats to watch the game, while Xiaozhi went into the Eight Masters players' lounge.
"Xiaozhi!" At the end of the corridor, Alice's figure appeared at the door of the lounge.
It's a pity for this child, but she is still in the growth stage. It is only a matter of time before she surpasses Yulongdu and takes the position of the Eight Masters.
"Alice, you're here." Xiaozhi smiled and nodded.
"Good luck in the game. Serena and I will cheer you on in the audience." Alice said with a smile.
"No problem, leave it to me."
Bang! The two high-fived each other and passed each other. Xiaozhi pushed open the door of the lounge.
The lounge was quiet. Yulongdu stood in front of the TV, Daigo leaned against the wall, and Shirona sat with her legs crossed. And... in the corner, two seniors exuded a sense of keeping strangers away...
It was a brightly lit, comfortable room, but the pressure was so strong that it could scare a passing villain to death...
Xiaozhi raised the corner of his mouth and took a step forward with Pikachu. The Eight Masters are just the starting point.
The huge Palace Gate Arena was packed today. In the front row, the Rockets' three idiots were wearing trendy short-sleeved shirts and broadcasting live.
Musashi is now a well-known internet celebrity.
In the arena, the commentator's slightly solemn voice rang out: "Welcome everyone, welcome to the Palace Gate Arena. Pokémon battle fans, cheers filled with anticipation and enthusiasm have already broken through the sky.
The much anticipated World Championship Eight Masters Elimination Tournament is about to begin! "
In the first row of the friends and family seats, Serena and Alice sat together, with Xiaoguang, Soji and Seiko sitting behind them.
"Hey, Mina-san, long time no see!" Sonia brought Hep to sit next to everyone.
On the other side of the audience, many familiar faces including Ahong, Tetsuya, Kotetsu, and Xiudi also gathered together.
Everyone is waiting for the champion of the World Championships to appear.
Boom boom boom~ The fast drum beats sounded, and eight spotlights flashed in the center of the stadium.
"Competing for the world's strongest, the most luxurious elimination tournament in history, the top eight masters, the Eight Masters have officially made their debut.
Now let's introduce the eight masters one by one!"
As the first beam of tracking light locked onto him, Yulongdu's figure slowly rose from the lifting platform.
"Eighth of the Eight Masters, the embodiment of justice in the alliance, a rigorous and powerful dragon expert, the champion of both the Kanto and Johto regions, the Dragon Ferry!!"
Wow! Enthusiastic cheers erupted from the audience. Yu Longdu waved his cape and said, "I will uphold the dignity and responsibility of a champion~"
"Next, number seven, the first Alola champion, the League Grand Slam winner, the brightest rising star of this era, Satoshi!!"
As the spotlight came down, Ash and Pikachu raised their right hands and waved.
"Wow!" the exclamation rose again.
"Xiaozhi!!" Serena brought Xiaoguang Alice, and the girls cheered enthusiastically.
"Sixth place, Carlos's successor, the powerful mega evolution user, Alan!!"
……
As the spotlight continues to shine, the noble prince Daigo of Hoenn, the Sinnoh Valkyrie Sirona, and the legendary trainer and breeder Verdure appear one after another.
Until the last two beams of light, the commentary booth was silent for a moment and everyone held their breath.
"Second place... Yesterday's legend, the legendary trainer named after battle, Red!!"
Wow!!!! The whole audience erupted in enthusiastic cheers.
"And!! Number one!! The undefeated king, the Dan Emperor!!"
At this moment, the entire huge arena shaped like a flower bud was overturned by the enthusiasm of the audience.
Screams and cheers raised a crazy heat wave, reaching its peak in Dandi's championship moment gesture.
The eight masters' eyes kept meeting, and Xiaozhi showed a provocative smile. Isn't it the best ceremony?
"Champions, the next generation of strong players, and yesterday's legends gather together. Now is the moment of miracles!
The World Championship, the eight-master elimination tournament, officially begins! "
Bang! As the cannon shot up into the sky, the audience responded enthusiastically again.
At the back of the third row, a little boy with slightly dark skin and red bangs stood on tiptoe with great effort, yelling at the top of his lungs, "Xiaozhi Saigao!! We will win!"
The parents behind him held the little boy lovingly, and reminded him with a smile: "Don't get too excited, Roy~"
"But~ Satoshi Sankaku is the best and strongest player! I like him so much!!" The little boy's eyes sparkled brightly.
In the auditorium corridor, Hua Lei looked at a bewildered girl and patiently took her hand. "Little sister, let me take you to find your family. What's your name?"
"My name is... Riko..." The little girl shrank her neck in social anxiety, then looked at Xiaozhi in the field and mustered a little courage: "I can do it alone..."
In the last row, the rich young man with his tan servant was quietly looking at the trainers in the field.
"Xiao Tan, look at that Xiao Zhi, he has a very handsome Azure Blade..."
To be continued...
