Pokémon: Forced to Become a Dragon Master at the Beginning

Xiao Yu's unexpected exit surprised everyone.

"The competition in this half-year competition was too fierce. Xiaoyu was actually eliminated."

"Lei Xuanchi has been holding back for too long. He has been hiding a fierce attack of the brave bird. He has too great an advantage against the twice-weakened Needle Bee."

"That's the case with Pokémon like Styrus. Its body is too fragile. Once the attack is put down, it basically has no chance of winning."

"It's a pity, it's a pity."

…………

"There's only one way for Styrofowl to go if it wants to become the top Pokémon."

"That is the ultimate offense, abandoning defense."

"These two things are for you." Xia Yu took out a box from his arms as he spoke.

Hearing that Xia Yu was about to give him something, Xiao Yu's eyes finally showed a trace of fluctuation, and his eyes fell on the black box in Xia Yu's hand.

Xia Yu opened the box, and the bright gems shone dazzlingly under the light.

Mega evolution stone and evolution key stone? !

A trace of surprise flashed across the faces of Xiao Yu and Eve. They did not expect that Xia Yu would be so generous and directly gave Xiao Yu a set of mega evolution stones.

"This is the Mega Needle Bee Evolution Stone and Evolution Key Stone." Xia Yu's eyes fell on Xia Yu: "Xiao Yu, from today on, you are my first disciple."

"Go to the back mountain of the laboratory and let your giant needle bee learn mega evolution from old-timers like Charizard and Lizard King, and have a good feel for mega evolution." Xia Yu smiled and rubbed Xiao Yu's head. He was serious. Treat the little girl in front of you as your disciple.

"You have the power of Viridian. As long as you keep working hard, Styrus will definitely grow into a master-level Pokémon in the future."

Listening to Xia Yu's voice, Xiao Yu took the Mega Evolution Stone and Evolution Key Stone from his hand and nodded vigorously.

"The half-year competition is actually not important. What is important is the College Cup later."

"Yeah." Xiao Yu nodded, fighting spirit igniting in his eyes.

…………

winter day.

The warm sun rises and shines on the white snow, warming the winter in the imperial capital.

After several battles, the top eight of the half-year competition have been determined.

Cui Mu, Lei Xuanchi, Qin Lanyan, Duan Yaoyan, Bai Qiange, Wu Muyang, Chen Wenbin and a sudden rise of apprentice Li Lu.

…………

Imperial Dragon Gym.

There were huge crowds of people and every seat was packed.

Different from the previous monthly competitions, this time the Dragon Gym Competition did not choose to compete in a closed gym, but was held offline for the first time.

In just five minutes since the online ticket sales channel was opened, tens of thousands of tickets were sold out in an instant, which is enough to show the audience's expectations for the Dragon Gym Apprentice Competition for half a year.

"Who do you support?"

"Of course it's Duan Yiyan. Duan Yiyan is Duan Hongzhi's nephew. It is said that he has some shadow of Duan Hongzhi. I am here today just for his game. How about you?"

"I'll just take a look."

"Haha, stop pretending, I know you are a talent scout from the Tianhong Battle Development Zone. Are you here today for Cui Mu?"

"Haha, aren't you the same? Why did you say you came here for Duan Huiyan? The eldest brother doesn't talk about the second brother."

"I advise you to give up. The Dragon Gym will not let anyone go. Cui Mu is a rare superpower."

"I'll take a look."

…………

There was a lot of discussion at the scene.

"Dear audience friends. Welcome everyone to come to the Dragon Gym and watch the Dragon Gym's apprentices' half-year competition despite your busy schedule."

"There is a voting button on each audience seat. You can vote for your favorite gym apprentice."

"There will be three competitions in the Dragon Gym today."

"The first quarter-final, the second semi-final, the third final."

"The first quarter-final will be decided by draw. Eight apprentices will compete simultaneously in four different venues."

"The four venues are grass, rock, water and ice."

"Now let us welcome the top eight apprentices of the Dragon Gym with warm applause!"

"The first person to appear is Duan Yanyan!" As the host's impassioned voice sounded, a figure strutted out from the contestants' tunnel.

"Duan Yanyan is particularly good at cultivating Fighting-type Pokémon. His signature Pokémon is Wrestling Hawk. In the previous four monthly competitions, he has achieved excellent results of two runner-up, one championship and one third place respectively. He is also The ace apprentice of the Dragon Gym!"

Listening to the host's introduction, Duan Huiyan waved to everyone shyly.

The scene suddenly erupted into cheers.

In the online voting, Duan Huiyan's popularity ranked among the top three among all apprentices.

This is also due to the blessing of Duan Hongzhi’s relatives.

Duan Hongzhi's popularity and status in China are extremely high, which makes everyone love him and give this preference to Duan Huiyan.

It can be said that as long as Duan Heyan does not act recklessly, does not do anything illegal and disciplined, and behaves honestly and honestly, the people of China can keep him worry-free for the rest of his life.

"The second one to appear is Qin Lanyan." After Duan Yaoyan appeared, the host's voice continued to sound, introducing the second apprentice to everyone.

"Qin Lanyan is one of the strongest apprentices in the Dragon Gym. She won the first place in the monthly competition in December and has also achieved extremely excellent results in several other monthly competitions."

"This time her goal is to win the championship! Let us invite Qin Lanyan to the stage with warm applause!"

…………

"The third one is Cui Mu. He came from an orphanage. He showed his extraordinary talent when he just joined the dragon gym. He continues to grow step by step!"

…………

"The fourth place is Wu Muyang. The signature Pokémon is Huayan. Its powerful combination of evil and ghost attributes means that it has only one fairy weakness. It has defeated powerful enemies many times in battles, making Wu Muyang the winner in the January competition. Win the championship!”

…………

"The fifth place is Lei Xuanchi, who just defeated Yu Yingting, the favorite to win the championship..."

…………

"The sixth place is Chen Wenbin..."

…………

"The seventh place is Li Lu..."

…………

"The eighth place is Bai Qiange..."

…………

After almost half an hour of introduction, the top eight apprentices stood in front of the stage at the same time.

"Dear viewers, here comes the live lottery ceremony for you. Please ask the top eight apprentices to draw lots in order!"

…………

"Duan Huiyan, grass from the field."

"Qin Lanyan, rocky venue."

"Cui Mu, fight against Duan Hongzhi on the grass field!"

"Wu Muyang, ice field."

"Lei Xuanchi, fight against Wu Muyang on the ice field!"

"Chen Wenbin, rock venue, versus Qin Lanyan."

"Bai Qiange, water flow venue."

"Li Lu, water flow venue, fighting against Bai Qiange."

…………

At this point, the draws for all four matches have been completed.

On the grass field, Duan Yuanyan vs. Cui Mu.

On the rocky field, Qin Lanyan competes against Chen Wenbin.

In the water flow area, Bai Qiange fights against Li Lu.

On the ice field, Wu Muyang fights against Lei Xuanchi.

…………

"This lottery is a bit outrageous."

"Bai Qiange was actually drawn together with the weakest Li Lu, and it was a water flow venue."

"Bai Qiange's Thorn Dragon King has the home advantage and is very likely to make it to the semi-finals."

"Duan Yanyan and Cui Mu were drawn together. This match is going to be interesting. Duan Yanyan's Wrestling Hawkman vs. Cui Mu's Alakazam. This match is going to be exciting."

"On the other side, the match between Wu Muyang and Lei Xuanchi was equally exciting. Wu Muyang's Flower Rock Monster was fighting against the popular Qixi Bluebird. Just thinking about it makes our blood boil."

"The one with the least suspense should be Qin Lanyan versus Chen Wenbin. Chen Wenbin is so unlucky. His strength is stronger than Bai Qiange and Li Lu, but he ended up meeting Qin Lanyan."

"Chen Wenbin has been unlucky for more than a day or two. The opponents he encountered in the past few months seemed to be very strong."

…………

As soon as the grouping results came out, there was a heated discussion at the scene.

At the same time, the barrage of comments in the online live broadcast room instantly filled the screen. Those viewers who could not watch the game live could only post barrage of comments in the live broadcast room to cheer for their favorite players.

"Dear audience friends, the four games will start simultaneously in ten minutes."

“Dear viewers, you can scan the QR code at the bottom of the screen to follow the Dragon Gym Douyin account, jump to the Dragon Gym official live broadcast room, and switch to your favorite apprentice arena to watch the live broadcast.”

"Now let's hand the footage over to the commentary booth."

…………

Ten minutes is neither long nor short.

In the blink of an eye, the top eight apprentices arrived at their respective venues, ready.

"Game start!"

Along with the referee's voice sounded.

Four games started simultaneously on four different venues.

Xia Yu sat in his own exclusive box, but his eyes were on the match between Bai Qiange and Li Lu, or rather, on Bai Qiange himself.

At present, after excluding Xiao Yu and Cui Mu, Xia Yu’s first choice for the ideal disciple is Bai Qiange.

In fact, Bai Qiange's strength is not even ranked among all the apprentices. It was pure luck that she was able to make it to the top eight this time.

However, her written test results can be said to be excellent. She ranked first in every exam and remained at the top of the list.

Getting it once or twice can be considered good luck, but getting first place every time means you really have the ability.

Therefore, Xia Yu began to pay attention to Bai Qiange.

Be down-to-earth, hardworking and strive to improve yourself.

Xia Yu saw many excellent qualities in Bai Qiange, and therefore Bai Qiange became Xia Yu's first choice to be his disciple.

…………

"Go ahead, Dragon King!"

"Go, Dancing Swan!"

Li Lu and Dancing Swan released their Pokémon almost at the same time.

Two red lights flashed, and the Thorn Dragon King and the Dancing Swan appeared in the water flow area at the same time.

"thump!"

With a sound of falling into the water, the Thorn Dragon King fell into the water, then quickly dived under the water and swam freely with an excited expression on his face.

The water is the home turf of the Thorn Dragon King, and Bai Qiange's Thorn Dragon King is able to swim freely.

On the other side, the dancing swan was floating on the water, looking towards the Thorn Dragon King opposite.

"The Thorn Dragon King versus the Dancing Swan, this match is going to be interesting."

"The Thorn Dragon King should be able to win, right?"

"That may not be the case. Li Lu's swan dance is also quite good."

"I think the Thorn Dragon King will definitely win."

…………

Xia Yu's gaze fell on the Thorn Dragon King, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Speaking of which, Bai Qiange’s Sea Thorn Dragon was able to evolve into a Thorn Dragon King, thanks to Xia Yu.

About a week ago, Bai Qiange privately approached Xia Yu and proposed to borrow gym points from Xia Yu to exchange for A-level dragon scales.

If the Sea Thorn Dragon wants to evolve into a Thorn Dragon King, it must have an item called Dragon Scale.

Given Bai Qiange's family situation, she couldn't even afford ordinary dragon scales, let alone S-grade dragon scales.

Therefore, her only way to obtain A-level dragon scales is to exchange them with gym points.

But the amount of gym points required for A-rank Dragon Scale is simply too much.

Although she has been saving points, she still hasn't saved enough until now, and with her gym points, there is absolutely no way she can get enough points to exchange for dragon scales before the six-month competition.

Other apprentices were unlikely to lend her gym points, so after careful consideration, she approached Xia Yu and proposed the idea of ​​borrowing "points" to buy A-level dragon scales.

When Xia Yu heard Bai Qiange's request, he was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Bai Qiange would take the initiative to find him and ask for an advance payment of the "Dragon Scales".

You should know that among the apprentices recruited by the Dragon Gym, except Bai Qiange, quite a few of them come from poor family conditions, but no one has ever dared to ask Xia Yu for advance payment.

Bai Qiange was the first person so bold, so she left a deep impression on Xia Yu.

However, Xia Yu is not a philanthropist, so he naturally did not agree to Bai Qiange's request at first.

Although he was generous to his own people, he was always stingy with outsiders. Moreover, if he lent points to Bai Qiange, it would be unfair to other apprentices.

If everyone comes to him to borrow points, then what's the point of him creating this gym points.

…………

"Do you want to borrow points to buy an A-grade dragon scale?" Xia Yu looked at Bai Qiange and asked.

"Yes." Bai Qiange nodded vigorously, raised her head and looked at Xia Yu: "I am still short of 28 points. I want to borrow from you and return it double after the half-year competition."

"Double return?" Xia Yu shook his head and looked at Bai Qiange seriously: "No, even triple return is not allowed. Everything must be done according to the rules and regulations of the gym. If this precedent is set, the gym will be in chaos."

Listening to Xia Yu's words, Bai Qiange showed a hint of disappointment on her face. She bit her lip and turned around to leave.

"But I can lend you a dragon scale in my personal name." Xia Yu's voice suddenly rang out, causing Bai Qiange, who was about to leave, to stop.

Xia Yu appeared in his hand, as if performing a magic trick. A dragon scale that shone with dazzling light and condensed with dragon energy appeared in his hand.

"This is an S-level dragon scale." Xia Yu restrained his smile and looked at Bai Qiange.

If it was any other S-level item, Xia Yu would naturally not give it to Bai Qiange, but he had quite a few dragon scales.

"I can lend it to you first, but I have a condition."
