Chapter 80: Page 80

"Quick Dragon, Dragon Dance!" "Qixi Bluebird, Dragon Dance!" As the smoke from the explosion filled the deck, Gongsun Yan and Genji did not press their advantage to pursue the victory, but instead immediately used various transformation moves to strengthen themselves. Dragonite and Tanabata performed a mysterious dance in the air at the same time. After the smoke dissipated, two dancing Pokémon appeared in front of everyone. The dance of the Tanabata Bluebird was so graceful and beautiful that Xiaoyao, who was watching from the side, couldn't hide the stars in her eyes. Even Xiaozhi, a straight man, praised the wonderful dance of the Tanabata Bluebird. Compared to the moving dance of the Bluebird on the Qixi Festival, the dance of Dragonite seemed so funny. Dragonite with a big belly circled in the air and drew an infinity symbol from time to time. Gongsun Yan thought he was imitating a bee. Although Dragonite's dance is not that attractive, the effect is real. Its attack has been improved just like Tanabata's Bluebird, and so has its speed. "Dragon Dive!" Gongsun Yan gave the order decisively. "Qixi Bluebird, hit hard!" Genji frowned, but still gave a tough order. Although Genji knew that a head-on confrontation with Dragonite was definitely not a good idea, Dragonite was simply too fast. It rushed in front of him before Tanabata Bluebird could react. At this point, he had no choice but to fight back.

"bump!" The two Pokémon collided for the first time in the center of the venue. On one side was Tanabata, which was emitting white light, and on the other side was Dragonite, which was shrouded in emerald green light. After a collision, both Pokémon flew backwards, but the battle situation was obviously more favorable to Dragonite, which used dragon-type moves. He only retreated less than two meters before stabilizing his body, while Tanabata flew backwards for five meters before catching up. "Dragonite, try to destroy the power of the Death Ray!" Gongsun Yan believes that offense is the best defense, so he will naturally not let go of the opponent's unstable flaw. "Cotton defense!" Genji was not moved at all by the destructive death ray of Dragonite, and gave orders to Tanabata Bluebird very calmly. An orange beam of light shot out from Dragonite's mouth, but Tanabata Bluebird ignored it. Its fluffy feathers suddenly became even more fluffy, and even wrapped up its entire body, forming a ball to deal with the destructive death light. At the moment when the destructive death ray hit the cotton ball, Gongsun Yan seemed to see the destructive death ray being absorbed by the cotton. Before he could see clearly what was happening, the cotton ball was blown away by the destructive death ray. "Huh? Dragonite, stop attacking!" Gongsun Yan narrowed his eyes and realized that something seemed to be wrong, so he quickly stopped Dragonite. "Hmm?" Dragonite obediently stopped its destruction ray and asked its trainer with a silly expression what he had discovered. "Haha, you really discovered it. You are the first one who discovered it in the first place, unlike those useless guys next to you." King Genji first praised Gongsun Yan, and then began to mock his apprentice. His disciples were also young men full of vigor and vitality. How could they not be angry when they heard such words? However, they could not say anything to refute because they really did not discover anything at the beginning. However, they couldn't afford to offend their own teachers, but they had something to say about Gongsun Yan. This kind of other people's children are always the enemies of all children who don't study well. Gongsun Yan now plays the role of this other people's children. However, Gongsun Yan didn't have time to pay attention to the looks of the people around him. He looked at the cotton ball that slowly fell to the ground from the air and even bounced twice mischievously. His face suddenly became a little ugly. "Cotton defense, this move is a bug." Gongsun Yan said gritting his teeth. As Gongsun Yan finished speaking, the Qixi bluebirds that had been gathered into a ball immediately returned to their original state. If it weren't for the circle of charred black feathers that fell on the edge, everyone would have thought that the destructive death light before was an illusion. "I remember that cotton defense should only be able to withstand some small-power moves, and the destructive death ray should be a very powerful move. How could this be?" Xiaoyao on the side covered her mouth in surprise. "Yes, but this Qixi Bluebird is different. Its feathers are absolutely special. Not only can it absorb energy attacks to the maximum extent, but it can also remove those feathers that have absorbed the attacks by dropping feathers." Xiaogang's tone became heavy as he explained to Xiaoyao. "Haha, there's absolutely no way that Dragonite can break through Tanabata Bluebird's cotton defense." A crew member who was watching the show said with a laugh. "What are you talking about! If energy attacks don't work, then use physical attacks!" Xiaosheng said to the man unconvinced.

"It's useless. The most basic cotton defense is to resist physical attacks. Do you think the captain would ignore this? It's just a waste of time and energy." The man was not angry when he heard Xiaosheng's words. He spoke calmly as if he was stating a fact. Chapter 269 Drawing Thunder to Hurt the Enemy Gongsun Yan did not continue trying. He had seen the cushioning effect of cotton in his previous life, so it was better to save his energy. "Damn, this is a bit tricky. Never mind, let's take a gamble. Dragonite, pray for rain!" Gongsun Yan frowned and thought about it. He did come up with a method, but there were two problems blocking his way to implement the plan. Any problem would lead to failure. Dragonite spit out a ball of light into the air, and after it exploded in the air, the originally clear sky instantly became covered with dark clouds, and heavy rain poured down in an instant, scaring Gongsun Yan. "Wow, are the rain clouds on the sea so big? It turns out that the environment has such a huge effect on the moves!" Gongsun Yan said in surprise. The strange thing is that Genji and Tanabata just watched Dragonite use Prayer for Rain without any intention of stopping it. "You are too naive. The nature of my Tanabata Bluebird has nothing to do with the weather. No matter what your intention is in praying for rain, it will be in vain!" Genji said with wide eyes. "Qixi Blue Bird, Dragon Wave!" "Kuailong, get out of the way!" Dragonite left its original position before the Dragon Wave approached. With Dragonite's speed, Tanabata Bluebird's moves could basically not hit him, and the situation was in a stalemate for a while. Xiaozhi and the others on the side were also worried about Gongsun Yan. Although they didn't know what Gongsun Yan's plan was, the characteristics of the Tanabata Bluebird became ineffective once they were used. But is the truth really what everyone thinks? When Gongsun Yan was directing Dragonite to dodge the attack of Tanabata Bluebird, his face remained calm, but he secretly rejoiced for a while in his heart. The first step of the plan was completed. "Dragonite, Lightning Punch!" Gongsun Yan changed his previous timid attitude and took the initiative to let Dragonite attack Tanabata Bluebird. "It's useless, cotton defense!" King Genji also ordered the defense immediately. Tanabata's speed of using cotton to defend itself was also very fast. No matter how Dragonite increased its flying speed, it could not attack Tanabata before the cotton covered its entire body. Its fist full of lightning hit the cotton weakly, and the lightning on it was also absorbed by the cotton. "Dragonite, electromagnetic wave!" Gongsun Yan's eyes lit up when he saw this. Now that the Qixi Bluebird had fallen into the trap, the second step had reached a critical moment. A flash of lightning appeared between the two tentacles on Dragonite's head and hit the Qixi Bluebird at close range. The cotton ball in front of Dragonite was suddenly filled with electric arcs. "Boy, although electromagnetic waves can paralyze the opponent 100%, the current Tanabata Bluebird is wrapped in cotton, and paralysis cannot penetrate the barrier of cotton." Genji said with a smile. "And you used Pray for Rain to make the feathers of the Qixi Bluebird absorb water and become heavier, but the water in the feathers also becomes a carrier of electromagnetic waves. As long as the Qixi Bluebird uses Refresh to remove those feathers, your wish will fail." Seeing the smug look on King Genji's face, Gongsun Yan couldn't suppress the smile on his face. The corners of his mouth curled up wildly and he even couldn't help laughing twice. "Dragonite, thunder, and leave that position immediately!" Gongsun Yan forcibly suppressed his laughter before it was heard by King Genji. His plan had finally succeeded. If it failed because of his own suicidal behavior, he would probably kill himself. "Qixi Bluebird, get out of the way." Facing the lightning summoned by Dragonite, King Genji didn't care at all and calmly let Tanabata Bluebird dodge it. Although the attack speed of thunder was very fast, it took time to condense. Even in rainy weather, it would be accelerated. With Tanabata Bluebird's defense, it could withstand it, so it was very easy to dodge. However, as the Qixi Bluebird moved, the lightning in the rain clouds also moved around with the Qixi Bluebird and was not avoided at all.

King Genji was also horrified. It was of no use asking Tanabata Bluebird to dodge in multiple directions. Finally, the thunder that had been condensing for a long time suddenly fell from the rain clouds, and Tanabata Bluebird could only use the cotton defense to block it again. This time, the cotton defense did not leave the Qixi Bluebird intact, but instead attracted more lightning. As the first lightning fell, several lightning bolts fell on the cotton ball at the same time, turning the entire cotton ball yellow, and the screams of the Qixi Bluebird were also heard. The rain clouds in the sky gradually dissipated, and Dragonite's thunder actually consumed all the rain clouds that could have lasted for a while. The effect was also very surprising. Now the Qixi Bluebird was in a charred mass on the field. Those charred spots were actually the cotton that originally covered the Qixi Bluebird. After absorbing a large amount of water, they also absorbed a large amount of electromagnetic waves. In thunderstorms, they acted like a lightning attractor, attracting all the lightning. But cotton is both a factor of success and failure. Although Gongsun Yan used his strategy to inflict heavy damage on the Qixi Bluebird, the cotton filled with water also completed its mission and absorbed a large amount of lightning, reducing a lot of damage to the Qixi Bluebird. When the thunder stopped, the Qixi Bluebird used its last bit of strength to use a brand new move to remove all the charred feathers. When it reappeared in front of everyone, it did not look injured at all, and its body was still as white as new. Everyone around was shocked by Gongsun Yan's operation. This plan was linked together, and they thought that no one could withstand it, but Qixi Bluebird actually blocked it, worthy of being a team of Pokémon from the king. "Haha, you still dare to hold on?" But Gongsun Yan was not among them. He said to the Qixi Bluebird in a bad mood. "Oh, I didn't expect you to find out. Come back, Tanabata Bluebird." King Genji had no embarrassment of being exposed and took the Tanabata Bluebird back. "Nonsense, if it can withstand this combo, I would believe you if it's Rayquaza, but Tanabata Bluebird? You're overthinking it! If it weren't for Tanabata Bluebird's severe mysophobia, it probably wouldn't even be able to use the last part of Refresh." Gongsun Yan, with a dead look in his eyes, retracted the Dragonite that was celebrating in the air. He was very experienced in bluffing people. This guy Genji actually wanted to cheat him. He was just overthinking it. It turned out that Qixi Bluebird didn't withstand the thunder at all, even though a lot of the damage was shared by it. It had put on that relaxed look before just to trick Gongsun Yan into admitting defeat. In fact, it didn't even have the strength to move. Chapter 270 See Who Blinks First "You are really good. It turns out that the rain-praying was not only to make the feathers of the Tanabata bluebird heavier, but also to attract lightning in the rain clouds. What a bold idea!" Genji praised Gongsun Yan. "But this move can only work if it catches the opponent by surprise. If the opponent is prepared, this move will be full of loopholes and can be easily destroyed." "But you've fallen into the trap. There are only a few tricks. The most important thing is that they work." Gongsun Yan said nonchalantly. "It doesn't matter whether the cat is black or white, as long as it can catch mice, it is a good cat. Any tactics have their limits, but human creativity is unlimited. Isn't it our responsibility as trainers to make tactics work?" After hearing what Gongsun Yan said, Genji's stern face softened. He was also afraid that Gongsun Yan would become obsessed with shortcuts and forget the most important thing, which is to improve the strength of Pokémon. Now he is relieved. Seeing Gongsun Yan and Genji saying so many strange things, Xiaosheng was very confused and said, "What are they talking about? Isn't the battle between Pokémon a competition to see whose tactics are more advanced?" "Xiaosheng, what do you think is the most important thing for being a trainer?" Xiaogang did not answer Xiaosheng, but started asking Xiaosheng back. "Of course the way to win is to command the Pokémon." Xiaosheng said without hesitation. "That's not what you said, but there are many factors involved in winning, including appropriate tactics, a suitable battle environment, the tacit understanding between Pokémon and trainers, and most importantly, strength." Xiaogang said. "Among the new trainers, most of them don't understand any tactics. Those trainers who understand tactics are often invincible. However, as the trainer's level increases, the importance of tactics is constantly decreasing, and the proportion of strength will become more and more important." Xiaogang added. "But Pokémon schools are all..." Xiaosheng said unwillingly. "Pokémon School? I remember fighting a few students there when I was traveling in Kanto. They were indeed quite weak. They could talk about tactics very well, but in the end they had no ability to adapt." Xiaozhi added from the side. "How is this possible?" Xiaosheng said in surprise. Regardless of Xiaosheng who was in autism, Xiaozhi and Xiaogang looked at each other and shook their heads. Although they were not from the academic school, they had no problem with the academic school. After all, there was no conflict between the two sides. But Gongsun Yan is not like that. Gongsun Yan once had a conversation with them. It was because of that conversation that they gradually developed prejudices against the academic school. Gongsun Yan used almost all his words to point out all the shortcomings of the academic school.

Gongsun Yan was not discrediting those Pokémon Academy. Before he cursed, Gongsun Yan also praised the many benefits of studying in a Pokémon Academy. It's just that the more objective the evaluation is, the more real it seems. Originally, Xiaogang also thought about letting his younger brothers and sisters enter the Pokémon School to study. After all, the publicity of the Pokémon Academy is everywhere on the street, and senior graduates can directly participate in the Quartz Conference. Everything is so tempting. However, after listening to Gongsun Yan's explanation of the performance of the academy schools in the league conference in recent years, Xiao Gang was glad that he did not send his younger brothers and sisters in. In the past ten years, not a single academy school from all regions has made it into the top 32. There is no point in going to this school except to make the resume look good. The Pokémon School in Johto once used the name of Dragon Messenger Du for publicity. Gongsun Yan asked curiously a few days ago, and it turned out that the so-called Dragon Messenger Du graduated from their school. It turned out that Du found that there was no use for him after studying for a year, so he dropped out of school to travel, and finally won the championship. So this is what is called walking out of school. He really walked out of school, there is nothing wrong with it. It’s just that no one said whether he left after completing his studies or left because he found his studies useless. For this, the school even gave the Yulong family a large sum of advertising fees, otherwise Du would have refuted the rumor long ago. Therefore, it is better to let Xiaosheng face the reality as soon as possible. It is not that the Pokémon Academy is bad, but the atmosphere that emphasizes theory over practice is like a blunt knife cutting flesh for hopeful trainers. One practitioner is better than ten thousand theorists. At this time, the conversation between Gongsun Yan and King Genji also ended. Gongsun Yan was very helpless. Why did everyone say these things to his elders when they met them? With his intelligence and talent, how could he go astray? This underestimated him. It just so happened that the other party really cared about him and said that for his own good. Unlike in his previous life, he did not preach to him in the name of doing good for him. What King Genji said had case examples and reasons, which made Gongsun Yan unable to refute and could only listen obediently. "Boy, now our battle is tied at 1:1. Now it's time for the final round. I think you can guess what Pokémon I'm going to use." King Genji finally let Gongsun Yan go, stopped preaching, and spoke to Gongsun Yan, who was a little dazed. "Oh, yes." Gongsun Yan said after a moment of silence. "I guess you should bring that little guy with you as well. Let me see how strong he is now!" Genji solemnly took out a Poké Ball from his body and said to Gongsun Yan. "Since you said so, how can I refuse your honor? I also want to experience the style of your ace!" Gongsun Yan smiled and took out the Poké Ball of Dragonite from his belt. The two people who took out Poké Balls did not throw them first. The scene became quiet for a moment, and the people who were originally discussing on the side also stopped and focused their attention on the field. As the two looked at each other, the air seemed to become solemn, and the people around them couldn't help but slow down their breathing, for fear of disturbing the two. "Could these two be competing to see who can blink first?" Xiaoyao said uncertainly. "How is that possible? This is a battle between kings. How can it be treated as a joke? I guess they are competing in momentum. The one with stronger momentum will gain the initiative." The crew member who had previously predicted that Gongsun Yan would not be able to resolve the Qixi Blue Bird said this. Although his previous speculation was wrong, he believed that he was right this time. Suddenly, a long-winged gull flew over the deck. King Genji blinked subconsciously, and Gongsun Yan jumped up immediately. "Old man, you lose. You blinked first!" Chapter 271: Unbeatable Opponent "Old man, you lose. You blinked first!" "So you guys are really competing to see who can blink first!" The people watching the game shouted in their hearts, including Xiaoyao. She just said it casually before, how come she was actually right. "Boy, your skills are really impressive. There are very few people who can compete with me in blinking first." King Genji said with a smile. "Hehe, now you understand how powerful I am, why don't you surrender?" Although Gongsun Yan was talking dirty, he was also constantly criticizing in his heart. If he was not experienced, no one would have thought that such an old senior was staring at you in order to compete with you to see who could blink first. Anyone younger than Genji would probably be so frightened that they would pee their pants if they saw this scene. They wouldn't even have time to think about what they had done wrong, let alone guess that the other party was doing this for such a childish challenge. Even though people of his generation knew about his bad taste, they were too lazy to argue about such unimportant things, so they coaxed him and deliberately lost to him. Of course, they really couldn't compete with Genji in this regard, and losing would be embarrassing, so it was better to just pretend that they didn't want to compete.

As for those who are older than Genji? There really is no one. Genji is basically the oldest in the alliance. Those older than him are either already dead or lying on a hospital bed. If you want to compete with Genji to see who blinks first, you must think you have too long a life. It has to be said that desire can really make people resist aging in a certain sense. At Genji's current age, he can go sailing without staying in bed. This would have been a miracle in his previous life. Even in Gongsun Yan's previous life, there were such cases. Who would have thought that Teacher Guo was about the same age as a racing driver named Lin? Gongsun Yan even suspected that the other party was a time magician who had delayed his own aging. As for why King Genji's tricks have not been exposed for so long, it is mainly because Genji is a very sinister guy. After scaring others, he never explains to them why, and in this way he has insidiously deceived many people.
