Pokémon: Thunder Shatters the Darkness

Feel the bustling atmosphere in the venue.

Yang Xiao bent down and picked up his bear apprentice, gently brushing away the ashes on its burnt fur.

"Huha..."

In stark contrast to the lively atmosphere in the stadium, at this moment, the bear disciple was looking down at his right arm with tears in his eyes.

As the place that was in direct contact with the "Flash Charge", it was not only dark at this moment, but also so ugly that the bear apprentice could not look directly at it.

"It's fine."

Yang Xiao leaned close to his apprentice bear and whispered, "It's just the fur that's burnt. It will grow back soon."

Apprentice Bear raised his head with tearful eyes.

Its crying face looked as if it was the loser at the moment.

really?

Yang Xiao smiled and nodded.

"competition is over."

The referee waved the red flag and said, "Both parties may leave the field... Yang Xiao, please stay for a moment."

"Huh? What's the matter?"

The referee took a few quick steps and came to Yang Xiao's side, whispering, "Please take a look at the camera in the audience."

Yang Xiao raised his eyebrows: "Didn't you say to avoid public celebrations?"

“I don’t know the details.”

Pressing the Bluetooth headset, the referee just repeated what he heard:

"Currently, the number of people watching online has reached over 30,000, so Director Wang wants you to say goodbye to everyone."

Thirty thousand?

Yang Xiao was a little surprised.

This number may not sound like a lot, and is a far cry from Yang Xiao’s nearly one million fans on short videos, but in fact it is not a small number at all.

Because if tens of thousands of people are watching you do one thing at the same time, it is actually quite difficult to achieve (I have experienced this very well).

That being the case...

Yang Xiao looked at the camera in the commentary booth, smiled and waved his hand.

The fat man looked at the scrolling comments on the screen and said into the microphone:

"Okay, the game is over, and contestant Yang Xiao has said hello to everyone. Now he needs to go down first."

"But friends in the live broadcast room don't have to leave in a hurry, because next we will focus on telling the whole process of Yang Xiao in the rookie competition, as well as his personal life experience that we have collected..."

The other side of the venue.

Zheng Xi picked up the Fire Rock Rat and instinctively gathered his arms to hold it tightly.

As if feeling the force, the Fire Rock Rat opened its eyes with difficulty, and Zheng Xi's ashamed expression was reflected in its dark red pupils.

"Fire Rock Rat."

Zheng Xi spoke in a low voice, feeling deeply guilty:

"My tactics were clearly wrong. I shouldn't have let the initiative be decided by Apprentice Bear. As a result, not only did my tactics fail to work, but they also consumed your energy."

"I shouldn't force you to fight it in close combat, which is its best skill. Instead, I should let you learn some long-range attack methods before that..."

Speaking of it.

Zheng Xi took a deep breath and said, "I shouldn't have persisted in my mistake."

The Fire Rock Rat kept his eyes open and looked at it silently.

It knew very well why Zheng Xi said that.

Because from birth to today, Fire Rock Rat has never used any special attack moves.

Never.

It’s not that it doesn’t know how to use it, but Zheng Xi has never let it use it.

"Special attack is meaningless, a real man should fight head-on!"

then.

Young Zheng Xi expressed his ambition to the ignorant Fireball Mouse:

"I know you're better at special attacks, but why can't we be the first trainer to specialize in physical attacks?"

then.

The young Infernape was inspired by Zheng Xi and willingly followed his trainer.

But after evolving, Fire Rock Rat can clearly feel that his talent is not focused on physical attacks.

therefore.

It tried to persuade the trainer to change the way it trained itself, but Zheng Xi chose to refuse:

"Fire Rock Rat, how do you know if it works if you don't try?"

"If it works, we'll be the first!"

It turns out.

My talent for physics is not enough to realize your dream.

"sorry."

Zheng Xi's eyes were red: "I'm really sorry."

"Zheng Xi."

The voice came from the front.

Glancing at the fire rat's injuries, Yang Xiao said calmly, "Let's go to the hospital first. Don't stay here any longer."

Zheng Xi pursed his lips and was about to speak, but Yang Xiao shook his head and continued:

"I don't intend to chat with you. I just want to remind you that we will soon become classmates: don't forget that school starts the day after tomorrow."

"If your injury is not healed by then, don't blame me. Remember to blame yourself."

Done.

Yang Xiao put on his smile again, waved to the audience, and left until he disappeared behind the door of his lounge.

"you……"

to be honest.

Even though he knew that the other party had good intentions, Zheng Xi still could not accept Yang Xiao's attitude.

But this time he did not explode, but turned and walked towards the lounge.

"what!"

Tao Wanwan asked in confusion: "Why don't you just walk out this way when you're injured? Why go back to the lounge? The intricacies in there are like the tunnels from the spy era."

"Maybe he brought a healing item with him."

Pei Zhilang said calmly:

"I suggest you find a way to buy some healing items for Pokémon. Although they are expensive, they are essential for a trainer."

"Okay, I'll think of a way."

"Just wait a while and come out to ask Yang Xiao."

Pei Zhilang yawned again. He really didn’t get enough rest yesterday. “He has ways… Hey, if you mention the devil, he will appear.”

Pei Zhilang shook his phone and saw the WeChat chat box flashing. He swiped his phone and glanced at it:

"…Let's go to the lobby. We don't need to wait for him."

"what happened?"

“He has to receive the award.”

Pei Zhilang sighed and patted Tao Wanwan on the head: "Let's divide the loot. Let's go out for ice cream."

"Don't talk about dividing the spoils, that doesn't sound nice! This is called taking commissions according to the plan!"

"Good good."

Far left.

Jiang Youyi stood up, turned to look at Lin Cong who looked unhappy and said, "Let's go too."

"Uh-huh?"

Lin Cong quickly stood up and asked tentatively: "Don't you want to wait for that person?"

"...No, let their friends get together."

"Oh, that's good."

Lin Cong was overjoyed, and his whole body showed the most genuine smile, sweeping away the loneliness and full of energy: "Let's go, let's go, let's go quickly, I'll take you back to the Jiangtu Training Center?"

"No, I want to go home."

"Then I..."

"You go home too. You don't have to send me off. I asked Master Li to come over in advance."

"This……"

My mood hit rock bottom again.

Lin Congqiang smiled and said, "Okay, okay...see you tomorrow then."

"it is good."

After taking a few steps, Jiang Youyi seemed to have thought of something and turned back.

"By the way, Lin Cong."

"Ok?"

Lin Cong looked at her, his eyes becoming brighter and brighter.

Is it...

"This light stick is also for you."

With her hair tucked behind her ears, Jiang Youyi smiled and said, "You're holding it very tightly, you must like it very much, right?"

Count your breaths.

Looking at Jiang Youyi walking away, Lin Cong was silent for a long time.

...

Putting away the phone, Yang Xiao placed his disciple Xiong on the chair.

He skillfully opened the briefcase, revealing the healing items inside that had just been updated in the past few days.

All of them are ruthless.

For example, this bottle of "Excellent Wound Spray".

It does not have any external sales channels and is provided as one of the monthly subsidies to those selected into the talent pool. Its effect is far better than ordinary wound spray.

After spraying the bear apprentice a few times, it sniffed the air and sneezed instinctively.

"Ah chirp!"

"All right."

Putting the spray back into his backpack, Yang Xiao took out the treasure that belonged to his disciple Bear.

As agreed, he purchased a top-of-the-line luxury touch-screen phone with a Yang Xiao cartoon cover and handed it to him.

bass!

Apprentice Xiong's eyes lit up and he reached out to take it.

How come the pain suddenly stops?

"for you."

Yang Xiao picked up his bear apprentice and walked slowly towards the passage: "Let's kill some time. Now, let's go get what we need."
