Pokémon: Ash's Rebirth World Line Concludes

Chapter 241 Preliminary Grouping

The selection meeting was over, and Xiaozhi and the other two were waiting at the Pokémon Center for the announcement of the final results.

Ding Dong~ A prompt sound came from the big screen, and the final list of top 48 was announced.

"Ah, that's Xiao Mao!" Souji shouted in surprise.

"Wow, that kid, Xiaozhi, look, Nana has made it to the preliminaries!" Seiko also discovered an acquaintance.

"And Ye Yue~" Xiao Zhi's eyes were sharp. Sure enough, a battle between the two was inevitable this time!

"Xiaozhi!" Xiaomao's voice rang out, and the two faced each other in the air.

"See you in the finals~" Xiaozhi smiled, Xiaomao nodded, turned and left.

As an all-round player, Xiao Mao is also good at collecting information about opponents.

"This is going to be interesting." In the corner, Yu Longdu leaned against the wall and smiled with satisfaction.

Xiaozhi, Xiaomao, Ye Yue, and the little ghosts in Ruoye Town, who will take over their flag?

"You think too much. I feel that young people nowadays are not very keen on challenging for the championship." Xiba, who was standing aside, complained softly while chewing an angry bun.

Among the Four Heavenly Kings of Kanto, if there is anyone who is a true supporter of Yuryudu, it is this fighting king, otherwise he would not have crossed regions to become the Four Heavenly Kings of Johto.

However, this guy Xiba probably has a lot of muscles in his brain. He made Yulongdu speechless with just one sentence...

"Ahem, next, let me introduce the next preliminary round." Old man Damaranchi stepped out from the crowd with a smile.

"The rules of the preliminary tournament are a regional points system. Three people are divided into a group. They play a round-robin match. The winner gets three points, the tie gets one point, and the loser gets zero points.

After the three people have played against each other once, the player with the highest score will advance to the final tournament.

Come on, young men! "

"It turns out that the competition system is so complicated." Souji frowned and calculated: "Winning two games is 6 points, one win and one draw is points. If I can't win both games, I'm afraid I will face the second round. It's so troublesome..."

Xiaozhi waved his hands calmly: "It's okay, as long as we keep winning, it will be two games and we're done, isn't that right?"

"Oh, that's right. Xiaozhi, you understand quite well." Makoto clapped his hands excitedly.

"Hehe, Bao's buddy~" Xiaozhi nodded proudly.

"Well, everyone, have a good rest before the official opening ceremony tomorrow." After saying hello to the trainers, old man Damaranch left first.

"There is an opening ceremony?" Chengzi was stunned.

"It seems that the first day of the conference will be the lighting ceremony of the sacred flame, and tomorrow morning will be the real opening ceremony, and there will be a segment where the preliminary contestants will appear collectively." Souji explained while looking at the contestant manual.

"Well~ I'm quite looking forward to the preliminaries, so we'll just have to wait a little longer." Xiaozhi held his head in his hands, and he and Souji prepared to go back to the dormitory to rest.

"Senior Xiaozhi!" Before he had walked far, Nana ran up from behind.

"Oh, Nana, you also made it to the preliminaries, right? Congratulations." Xiaozhi shook hands with Nana and said with a smile.

"Hehe, thanks to Geranium and the others, as well as your guidance, senior. Anyway, I will try my best to pass the preliminaries and have a match with you." Nana clenched her fists and smiled.

After half a year of traveling, this girl has matured visibly.

"Let's cheer each other on." Xiaozhi nodded and said goodbye to Nana.

On the phone, Jin Laowu's message lit up. It turned out that he and Xiaoyin had arrived in Baiyin City. He asked Xiaozhi if he wanted to join them for dinner.

They were staying in the same hotel with Azure and Tokiwa Lilac, so it was very convenient for holding a party.

Xiaozhi thought about it and finally refused, saying that it would not be too late to meet again after they made it to the final tournament.

Now when we come to a party, it’s not about opening champagne at halftime, it’s about opening champagne at the beginning…

After returning to the dormitory, Xiaozhi held Pikachu and went back to his room to rest early.

Seeing that Xiaozhi was silent, Makoto asked Souji with some concern: "Is he feeling sick? He seems a little absent-minded."

Souji shook his head. "He is adjusting his condition. Starting tomorrow, he will have to prepare himself physically and mentally for a high-intensity competition schedule.

"I see. Although I didn't understand, he's fine, right?" Chengzi nodded: "Then let's go have a midnight snack?"

A big drop of cold sweat fell on the back of Zongci's head: "You can still eat more..."

"What are you talking about? Main dishes, desserts and barbecue are all different stomach areas." Chengzi put his hands on his hips with confidence.

"Well... I'm not Kentaro, I have four stomachs..." Mr. Souji said a few words, but still accepted his fate and went to the night market with sincerity.

As for Xiaozhi, he was sitting cross-legged on his bed with Pikachu beside him.

The little guy Ibrahimovic wanted to come up and play a little, but was gently carried away by Latias.

"La la la~" Meloetta leaned on the windowsill and sang the elegy of Ifrit, which was the music that ancient Greek gladiators would listen to before going to the battlefield.

"It's finally about to begin, the real league competition. Pikachu, I'll be counting on you from now on." Xiaozhi said lightly.

"Pikachu~" Pikachu nodded and leaned against Xiaozhi, and they looked at the moon outside the window.

On the beach, Xiao Mao looked up at the same moonlight. He had worked so hard for so long, not to prove that he was better than Xiao Zhi, he just hated losing.

Same moonlight, different eyes, some contestants of the Silver Conference are sleeping soundly, while others are praying quietly.

The competition officially kicks off~

……

The next day, Xiaozhi got up early and came back from his morning run. After washing up, he went out with Souji.

After buying chicken sandwiches and soy milk for breakfast at Sister Xiaolan's stall, the three of them quickly came to the conference venue to wait for the opening ceremony.

Souji and his partner entered directly from the audience passage, while Xiaozhi and Nana entered the waiting area from the contestant passage.

Xiaozhi, who was eating a sandwich, was stopped by two sneaky staff members before he could even squeeze the ketchup.

"Contestant, do you have a rubbing of the Pokémon's footprints registered?

You are the only one who has not finished yet, come with us~" The "staff" with blue hair greeted enthusiastically.

Gulp~ Xiaozhi swallowed the breakfast in his mouth and waved his hand impatiently: "Team Rocket, I'm busy today. Don't get involved, Pikachu~"

"Pikachu~!!" Pikachu flew up and struck down with a beam of 100,000 volts.

Boom! The three idiots' disguises were shattered to the ground, and they spiraled up into the sky.

"Why?! This feels so bad..."

Looking at the broken glass window in the rest area, Xiaozhi turned his head away guiltily: "Hey~ I was acting in self-defense, Nana, you have to testify for me."

"Uh~Okay..." Nana scratched her head in confusion: "Speaking of which, Senior, how did you figure out those two people?"

"They both don't dye their hair, I'm not blind..." Xiaozhi rolled his eyes: "Okay, it's time to enter the venue."

"Oh, here we come!" Nana nodded, lined up with her beloved Electabuzz and Satoshi, and waved as they entered.

The audience instantly erupted in enthusiastic cheers and applause. Xiaozhi waved to the audience with one hand, his heart pounding.

This is the charm of Pokémon battles!

In the audience, Blue, Green, Gold, Silver, Tokiwa Lilac, and several legendary trainers who had nothing to do were all present.

The Pokémon League is a region's top event, according to Jin Laowu.

Although I have never participated in it, I must attend this kind of fun until I am 84 years old!

Why this age? The answer is that 84 is a threshold...

Amid everyone's expectant gaze, Mr. Damaranchi came on stage and delivered a speech.

Xiaozhi saw Jin Laowu fall asleep with his own eyes...

"Is this thing so hypnotic?" Zongci looked at Jin Laowu beside him in confusion.

"Hey, the old man's speech is the same every year, just changing the time and place." Sister Blue smiled and said, "If you attend it a few more times, I'm afraid you can memorize it."

"Uh..." Souji was speechless.

Fortunately, Mr. Damaranch’s speech was not long. After Yulongdu and the Four Heavenly Kings of Johto all appeared, the preliminary regional competition finally kicked off.

Xiaozhi looked up at his group: Junyi, Xiaomeng...

"Then I won't be polite. I'll just send them home with two consecutive wins." Xiaozhi rubbed his wrist and said in a firm tone.

"Pika~!" Pikachu clenched his fists and smiled with a fighting spirit.
