Chapter 286 A Battle That Wasn't Very Intense
"Hey kids, are you done yet? Almost a minute has passed since the match started, do you still want to continue?"
Watching these three kids, all under 10 years old, interacting with each other.
As the second oldest of the three brothers, with the most irritable temper, he couldn't help but start shouting loudly.
After all, he didn't know that if he didn't stop Xuan Mingtian and the others from doing this, who knows when they would be able to fight.
Because of their own goal, even if they couldn't get into the top three, they wanted to get the reward for fourth or fifth place.
It's important to understand that such rewards are actually a manifestation of resources and opportunities.
When you finish in the top three, there is a high probability that you will receive investment from the prize sponsor.
However, this kind of investment depends on the character of the person making the investment.
This character encompasses many aspects. It includes being kind and compassionate, having a heart that knows how to reciprocate kindness, and being obedient.
Most importantly, there is one prerequisite: that person comes from an ordinary family, or is even an orphan.
But this person has an unparalleled understanding with the elves, and also possesses visible potential.
Otherwise, why would anyone fund you or spend resources on you?
Putting aside the fact that the circus was holding a spirit battle competition, let's just talk about Xuan Mingtian and his family.
Every year, they select a number of orphanages within a certain scope to provide financial assistance.
Sometimes, they even sponsor those who attend regular schools. But some of them become Pokémon Trainers.
They will be given a spot in the Elf Academy, and those who excel will be allowed to choose their initial Elf.
Perhaps this is the law of the real world.
Profit, poverty, hunger, disease, death, new life, joy... and so on.
Now, let's turn our attention back to the battlefield.
Upon hearing the second brother's words, Xuan Mingtian felt a little ashamed. Of course, only a little.
Although he felt ashamed and embarrassed, he controlled his expression very well, and neither the audience, his opponents, nor the referees noticed anything unusual.
However, Xiao Qingmei, who was familiar with Xuan Mingtian, immediately noticed that something was wrong.
"Big brother, what's wrong? Your expression is a bit stiff..."
Unfortunately, before she could finish speaking, a flick on the forehead struck her.
“Speak properly, why are you mimicking my speech and actions? These are words from a very old and distant local dialect. If you don’t know how to say them, it’s easy to misunderstand them.”
As Xuan Mingtian paused to swallow, Bai Ying, standing beside him, extended her slender fingers and, with lightning speed, placed them on the soft flesh of his waist, giving it a sharp twist.
"Hi~"
"Holy crap, Bai Ying, what are you doing? That hurts!"
"Idiot, you piece of trash, look at the other side, they're already getting impatient."
Upon hearing this, Xuan Mingtian's mind started working, and then his eyes moved slightly upwards.
Wow, goodness!
It's okay if you don't look at it, but once you do, problems will arise.
The second of the three brothers opposite was gritting his teeth and looking furious in Xuan Mingtian's direction.
Even the remaining two brothers gradually became somber.
Because Xuan Mingtian and his two companions gave off a feeling of being on a leisurely trip.
They showed no sign of tension despite the Pokémon battle. They were still there, laughing and joking.
This gave the three brothers a feeling of being looked down upon.
"Alright, Xuanmingtian Team. The competition has been going on for several minutes now. If this continues, I will have to disqualify you from the competition."
Even the referee standing nearby couldn't help but speak up.
Okay, now that I've been singled out for criticism, I guess I'll have to start taking it seriously.
"Xiao Qingmei, have Dehua take charge of defense and healing. Bai Ying and I will handle offense and control. Suantou, use the grass field."
"Xiao Miao, use the overlay blade again."
Because of the atmosphere created by Xiao Qingmei and Dehua a few minutes earlier, many viewers remembered this pair.
They even eagerly anticipate what skill they will use next.
The result was that the three brothers made their own Pokémon activate their skills.
"Twin-tailed Pokémon uses Swift to negate the opponent's Razor Leaf."
"Tree? That's a myth. Use rocks to polish it."
"Hey, Chief Crow, use the Taunt skill on them."
Without a doubt, the first to unleash its skill was our Garlic.
In the academy, it usually either nourishes crops with grassy fields or consults with tropical dragons.
Therefore, even if it can't compare to Pokémon like Bellossom, its skill casting speed is already considered fast among Pokémon of the same age, or even among stronger ones.
After Garlic used its skill, Crow Head followed immediately.
Unfortunately, its taunting skill was completely useless because of the presence of Dehua.
Then there's the tree, of course, when it starts grinding the rocks.
Its entire body was enveloped in gray energy, and in a short while, as the energy dissipated, it revealed a body that was even brighter than before.
Next up is Double-Tailed Hand's Swift Strike.
Its two tails, which resemble hands, first merged into one.
In just two seconds, it opened its palms again, forming a 'Kamehameha' palm-opening posture.
Then, a nearly transparent energy pooled together. In less than a second, countless golden stars shot out from it.
Its direction was precisely towards the garlic and the like.
Fortunately, among the six Pokémon, the weakest is Xiaomiao.
It has already condensed into a flying leaf blade and is shooting towards the high-speed star.
"Bang~ Bang~ Bang..."
The blades collided with the stars, stirring up plumes of thick black smoke.
Since these skills are all formed from energy, it's normal for them to collide and create smoke.
"Twin-tailed Hand, let's keep it up and use the piercing sound."
"Hey Crow Leader, we can't afford to fall behind. Follow closely behind the monster and use Ambush to attack the Bulbasaur that used the Knife Leaf."
"Tree? Use the Rockfall move to restrict Bulbasaur from placing grass."
Before the smoke had even cleared, the three brothers could be heard giving commands to their own spirit.
It seems they've played 3v3 matches more than once or twice, otherwise how could they coordinate so well?
However, this did not stump Xuan Mingtian: "Hmph~ Such trivial skills, yet you dare to show off your meager abilities before an expert. Behold my great power... Pshaw, I was just talking nonsense."
Immediately approach your own Pokémon, then surround yourself with garlic and unleash a powerful whip attack.
Upon receiving the instruction, the other two elves quickly approached Garlic.
Then, from the flower buds on its back, four sturdy vines with sharp thorns extended.
Immediately afterwards, it whipped wildly, striking the space within a four-meter radius around it.
The speed and sound of the whipping seemed like a beautiful melody, constantly entering everyone's ears.
On the other hand, the leader of the three brothers, upon seeing the vine whip that could only be seen as a blur, immediately stopped advancing and returned to the side of the Twin-Tailed Hand.
It seems that this crow is not a spirit that only knows how to act recklessly.
