I really don’t want to be a champion

Lin Nan and Su Shihan had already rushed to the place where the competition would take place on the last day.

"Hu Yao Arena."

Huyao Arena is a relatively high-ranking arena in Nanzhou City, and the Huyao Group behind it is a first-class large company in China, with total assets of tens of billions, and its various industries spread across all walks of life.

The arena is also one of their industries.

After the two arrived at the venue, they opened their mobile phones in unison and glanced at each other's game information.

"The twenty-seventh match, Lin Nan VS Li Xiaoai."

"Game 22, Su Shihan VS Lin Jialun."

"It seems that we are in the same batch. Fortunately, we are not grouped together."

After Lin Nan read it, he sighed relaxedly. Fortunately, the two of them didn't confront each other.

"You have to work hard, I heard that the rewards this time are quite generous! You can try for it."

"Forget it, don't I know my strength myself? It would be great if I can win the next one."

Lin Nan shook his head at Su Shihan's encouragement. He was quite clear about his score. It would be great to be in the top 50, and the rest was just a luxury.

In fact, Lin Nan knew very well that Su Shihan was stronger than herself, not to mention that her Chirulian could restrain her own Riolu?

And my Riolu hasn’t evolved yet?

Although I wasn't worried on the surface, I was still worried deep down.

After a while, the first wave of competition started.

There are ten teams in a group, and the game progresses very quickly, and a wave can basically be completed within ten minutes.

…………

…………

Ten minutes passed

"Okay, it's our turn." Lin Nan said slowly while looking at the referee's situation on the field.

"come on!"

"the same as you."

The two high-fived each other and then headed to their respective stages.

…………

"You are Li Xiaoai."

Lin Nan looked at the girl with short shoulder-length hair and black-rimmed glasses who looked very bookish, and then asked a lot.

"Well, you know me?"

A girl named Li Xiaoai looked up when she heard someone calling her name, and found that it was a strange boy whom she didn't recognize, so she asked with some confusion.

"No no no~"

Lin Nan quickly denied it.

"Then you~"

In the middle of speaking, Li Xiaoai paused and looked at Lin Nan with his eyes, as if saying: "Why did you call me!"

"I am~"

Before Lin Nan could finish speaking, he heard the voice coming from the referee's microphone.

"Please both sides get ready and summon your Pokémon. Get ready to start."

Just when Lin Nan was about to continue speaking, Li Xiaoai on the opposite side interrupted: "No need to say more, summon your Pokémon quickly."

Seeing this, Lin Nan had no choice. Originally, he just wanted to explain, but now..., Lin Nan still summoned his Pokémon.

"Come out, Riolu."

"Oh, it turns out to be a Fighting-type Pokémon, so I've decided that it's your heart bat."

After Li Xiaoai saw the opponent's Pokémon, her hand was originally placed on the left Pokémon ball, but she immediately switched it to the right one.

Lin Nan looked at the Pokémon on the field that looked like a bat but had a pig-nosed nose, and his face became serious.

He recognized the opponent's Pokémon. It was a super-powerful, flying dual-type Pokémon that was four times more powerful than his Riolu. It was also destined to be a difficult battle.

"Riolu, Metal Claw."

"Don't fight the Heart Bat head-on. Fly high into the sky."

The other person reacted very quickly, and as soon as Lin Nan finished speaking, he had already made a judgment.

Sure enough, when Riolu rushed over, Heart Bat was already flying high in the sky, making faces and laughing at Riolu on the ground.

Riolu couldn't stand this, so he jumped directly into the air and kept waving his hands, but he flew too high and could not touch him.

The scene is at a stalemate like this.

…………

"Riolu, leave him alone."

Seeing Riolu getting angry, Lin Nan quickly stopped him and said, "Use your own fierceness."

After Riolu heard this, the red light in his eyes slowly dissipated, and then he stayed where he was and began to accumulate strength.

"Since you won't attack, I will come."

"Heartbat, use Air Blade."

Naturally, Li Xiaoai couldn't stand watching the other party successfully use the buff-increasing skill, and quickly commanded to stop it.

After hearing this, the heart bats on the field took the initiative to fly towards Riolu's position. After aligning, they flapped their wings and several sharp wind blades suddenly appeared and flew in the direction of Riolu.

Seeing the incoming attack, Riolu immediately stopped using the skills in his hands and quickly hid here and there to avoid being hit.

"Heart Bat, increase output."

As soon as he finished speaking, more and more wind blades appeared in the air, making it difficult for Riolu to avoid them.

"Riolu, wave missiles to attack."

Seeing the dense attacks like a rain of arrows covering the entire field, with no way to avoid them, Lin Nan spoke decisively.

In an instant, explosions on the field sounded one after another, like fireworks in the sky.

The trainers on both sides were blinded by the wind generated by the explosion and turned around one after another.

…………

When he saw it again, Riolu's body was full of injuries, his eyes were extremely determined, and his trembling body all showed the fact that he was seriously injured. The thin body standing on the field made people laugh.

At this moment, Riolu has already reached his upper limit, as if a gust of wind can blow him down.

The Heart Bat on the opposite side was no longer in the air, standing on the spot, constantly licking its injured wings.

After a while, it quickly returned to normal and started flying.

Lin Nan kept looking back and forth between the two elves, and then he made an unexpected decision.

"Heart bat, telekinesis."

Seeing that the opponent's Pokémon was seriously injured, Li Xiaoai took advantage of the victory and pursued it: "It's over with one strike..."

"Stop, I admit defeat."

After hearing the opponent's command, Lin Nan immediately interrupted and quickly spoke to end the battle.

"Ah~"

This was the first time Li Xiaoai had seen someone take the initiative to admit defeat, and paused for a moment.

The same is true for the Heart Bat flying in the sky. It keeps flapping its wings and doesn't know whether to use skills or not.

"Classmate Lin Nan, are you sure you want to admit defeat?"

After hearing the slogan of admitting defeat, the referee quickly drove the instrument to the front of the two people and asked the boy in front of him again in a confirming tone.

"That's right, I~ gave up."

Lin Nan rubbed Riolu's head, who kept pulling him, and repeated what he just said.

Looking at Riolu's eyes, Lin Nan could understand Riolu's thoughts, but now he really couldn't. He also wanted to continue fighting, but this would only increase his injuries.

"How can you admit defeat? Didn't the teacher teach you? As a trainer, you must never give up hope under any circumstances?"

Li Xiaoai rushed to Lin Nan and said very enthusiastically, obviously dissatisfied with Lin Nan's surrender and Riolu's desire to continue fighting.

"There is no need to continue now. It will not affect the final result anyway."

Lin Nan smiled indifferently, and then prepared to take out his elf ball.

"Grr~"

"Grr~"

Riolu looked at Lin Nan who looked indifferent and refuted Lin Nan's words for the rare first time.

Looking at the usually obedient Riolu, for some reason, he kept refuting what Lin Nan had just said.

"Look at your elf. It wants to fight. How can you give up?"

Li Xiaoai looked at the quarrel between one person and one Pokémon, and then took the opportunity to talk again.

"That's enough. Whether it bothers you or not is my business. It's none of your business."

After hearing the meaning of Riolu's words, Lin Nan, who was originally a little irritable, suddenly exploded after hearing what Li Xiaoai said.

"Who wants to care about you? I just feel sorry for Riolu."

Li Xiaoai was stunned by Lin Nan's yelling, but she quickly reacted and started talking angrily.

"have a finger in the pie."

"Riolu, come back."

Lin Nan took out the elf ball and prepared to take it out for treatment.

"Teng" sound

Riolu actually pushed the Poke Ball back.
