Chương 96: If you win, you should go...

..

..

"They won! They won! They did it! They won!"

The audience erupted in cheers.

Prantina could not contain her joy and hugged Cynthia tightly. The two girls' silvery cheers merged into the surging sound.

Diamond and Parr, standing nearby, were also infected by this excitement and almost couldn't help but hug each other, but they both froze when they looked at each other.

The two scratched their heads, then tacitly separated themselves, turning their enthusiasm into wild applause.

"Gallopian! Garchomp!"

"Wow! Garchomp is so cool! From today onwards, I'm a die-hard Garchomp fan!"

"And there's Scizor! Real men fight head-on!!"

"Exactly, only women like to idolize celebrities!"

Behind Prantina, the three fence-sitters howled incessantly, their cheers deafening.

Who would have thought that just before this battle, the three of them were Karuni's biggest fans, and even their T-shirts were designed to resemble their love for the character.

Judging from the current situation, the factory will probably have to work overtime overnight to produce the new Land Shark model they want.

"Cattleya!!"

"Garuda!!"

The atmosphere reached its peak, and the venue was filled with an exhilarating scene reminiscent of an encore. The two names rose and fell like the tide, wave after wave, vibrating every inch of air.

In contrast, the Carlos Box seemed to have been forgotten by the world.

The noise drifted in through the glass, and everyone's expressions grew increasingly somber.

"How... how did you win?"

After a long while, Zhimi broke the silence with a hoarse voice.

This renowned chef trainer, who usually pays the most attention to his manners, was now gripping the floor-to-ceiling window tightly with both hands, staring wide-eyed at Lu Sha, who was enjoying the cheers of the crowd.

While the people present might not be considered top-tier trainers, they were certainly well-informed, having at least some experience battling near-Elite Four trainers.

But no one ever imagined that a Gible without an Everstone could defeat a near-Elite Four level Gardevoir in an instant.

Instant kill!

It was instantly defeated without any trainer boost!

She was so fresh and beautiful that she was instantly smitten!

"Ultimate-level Dragon Star Cluster... ultimate-level special attack amplification move... should it be Soul Dance Sonic Boom? I don't understand... I don't understand at all..."

Yan Kai murmured to himself, slowly straightening up, his eyes somewhat unfocused.

He felt that his nearly thirty-year career as a trainer had suffered an unprecedented and devastating blow today.

The feeling of my worldview collapsing was even greater than when I was brutally beaten by Giovanni back then.

Karuni is already the strongest new generation in Carlos.

At his age, he struggled even to command Gym Leader level Pokémon.

At the same age, Karune was already able to barely command the Heavenly King in battle.

Furthermore, Karune's special abilities are related to role-playing and increasing bonds, allowing her to quickly achieve empathy with Pokémon and rapidly improve her Pokémon's move proficiency.

Everyone here knows the situation regarding Karune's Gardevoir.

Instinctive Meditation, Instinctive Mental Power, Mastery-Level Telekinesis, Mastery-Level Instantaneous Teleportation...

It took Karuni just over a year to achieve mastery of these moves and to be halfway to the top tier.

To Yan Kai and the others, this was already an incredible speed.

But what do they see now?

Gadriya herself possesses profound-level meditation, profound-level telekinesis, at least proficient or even instinctive level mental strength, and the final seal at least proficient level.

He's even mastered sealing techniques, so it's hard for anyone here to believe he hasn't mastered teleportation, a signature move of the psychic type.

And that Gible has now become a Garchomp, which is even more outrageous.

Ultimate-level Dragon Star Cluster, Ultimate-level Soul Dance Sonic Boom, evolution triggers attribute tides, Elite-level one-hit kill of Quasi-Tenten...

"Did they start cultivating from the womb? That's too exaggerated."

The youngest person present, Violet, dejectedly put down her camera. The scene captured by the lens was undoubtedly stunning, but it also made her feel powerless.

Violet's words resonated with most people.

"Yes, it's a truly formidable talent..."

Her older sister, Pansy, put down her notebook and let out a long sigh.

"Are all the new generation in other regions of this era gifted with this level of genius?"

Pansy is not a professional trainer; she was on the team for recording and interviewing, but she was still amazed by the battle just now.

It is precisely because she understands trainers that she deeply knows how valuable Cattleya is.

"Let's save the reminiscence and sighs for after the match. Vladali, now... it's your turn, isn't it?"

With his arms crossed, he took a deep breath and cast a heavy glance at Vladali, who was sitting calmly in the corner of the sofa.

"Sinnoh's strength is indeed not to be underestimated. Perhaps this exchange was a mistake. But since I'm standing here, I will try my best to take a piece of their flesh."

Vladali put down his coffee cup, which had been refilled four times, and slowly stood up from the sofa, his nearly two-meter-tall figure making the entire space seem much cramped.

He took a step forward and continued, "My talent is inferior to Karune's, and even less than that of the new legend of Sinnoh, but I will fight to the very end."

"That's enough, thank you, Vladali!"

Yan Kai slammed her arm heavily against her breastplate, offering her blessing for Vladali's upcoming battle.

Vladali didn't turn around, but waved to the crowd with his back turned and left the box with heavy steps.

The new generation of Sinnoh sent out Cattleya.

Among the younger generation, he didn't know what he would face, but he hoped it wouldn't be too difficult.

On the battlefield.

After enjoying the deafening cheers for a full ten minutes, Lu Sha clapped his hands, still feeling unsatisfied, and walked side by side with Gadria toward the contestant tunnel.

"Click! (It's better up here, the view is so much better!)" Lu Sha quickly adapted to its increased size, swaying its shark-like head and looking around.

The new perspective brought about by evolution made everything feel fresh. At an altitude of nearly two meters, he breathed in the crisp air that belonged to high places for the first time in his life.

Thinking back to the Gible days, it used to take a lot of effort to look up at anyone, but now it only needs to lower its eyelids slightly to exude an aura of dominance over all living beings.

What delighted Shark the most was that, with just a slight downward tilt of his head, he could see the little golden ahoge (cowlick) on the young lady's head swaying gently in the wind.

Click click click!

At the entrance to the players' tunnel, Dorasena greeted the pair as they appeared, saying, "Congratulations! The strongest team in Sinnoh's future!"

"Click! (Now it's your turn, teacher. Are you nervous? Are you scared?)" Lu Sha chuckled mischievously, using a phrase from Dora Sena.

"What do I have to be afraid of?"

Dorasena crossed her arms, chin slightly raised, confidence radiating from her eyes and brows: "My dragon fears no challenge. Of course..."

Before she could even maintain her composure for two seconds, Dorasena immediately broke down, smilingly leaning closer to Lu Sha and earnestly pleading, "If Little Sha Sha wants to come up on stage with me, I'll be even less afraid! Hehe!"

Upon hearing this, Gadriya's delicate eyebrows immediately furrowed, her reluctance written all over her face.

"Click! (Dream on! Miss, let's go!)" Lu Sha rolled her eyes. Who would follow this woman onto the stage?

As a fellow trainer, how could he possibly be commanded?

Before Gadria could unleash her full power and defeat Dorasena, Lu Sha quickly pulled his young mistress away.

There's another show coming up, so we need to find a good viewing spot.

Lu Sha asked a couple of questions in the group and got the map of the battlefield from Zhu Qing. Then, she pulled Gadriya toward the higher part of the stands.

At this moment, Cattleya was still basking in the afterglow of victory, her mood as bright as the early spring sunshine.

She had no objections and simply let Lu Sha lead her, like a delicate pendant being pulled by him as they moved between the towering stands.

That's just how she is; she's easily satisfied.

Especially when I'm with Lu Sha, even the simplest interactions can make me happy all day.

In less than 5 minutes, Lu Sha had brought Jia Deliya to the door of a private room.

"Click-clack! (Shark Lord is here!)" Lu Sha grinned mischievously and slammed open the door to the private room.

Swish!

The moment the door opened, eight pairs of eyes turned to look at them, some of which unconsciously carried the aura of powerful trainers.

Seemingly sensing a threat, Cattleya frowned, her gaze sweeping over the crowd, repelling all their auras.

"Cadelia? What are you doing here?"

Zhimi stepped forward with a furrowed brow, blocking the doorway, his hostility undisguised.

The future of Carlos, who just crushed them.

They're still coming to their private room now; it looks like blatant showing off.

Come on, do as I say, let me teach these respectable Carlos how to block the door!

Lu Sha secretly rubbed his hands together and excitedly shouted through the telepathic connection.

Cattleya nodded almost imperceptibly, her gaze sweeping over the crowd: "What? Aren't you welcome?"

"This is Sinnoh; there's no place we can't enter."

His tone was cold and aloof, accompanied by an expression that said, "Keep away."

Cattleya naturally ignored everyone. She lifted her skirt, walked past Jimmy, and went straight to the empty single sofa. She placed her hands on her hips and sat down gracefully.

At that moment, Carlos and the others' blood pressure spiked.
