Chapter 837: Chapter 713: Winning the Championship, Second Round_2
Eric himself was also pale and stood there powerless.
"My Dream Demon's hypnosis speed is very fast, and your Pokemon's spiritual power quality clearly doesn't make the cut. Go back and train some more."
As Jiang Li's words fell, a massive Curse Power exploded directly in Aggron's mind. At that moment, it seemed as though the shadow of the Dream Demon appeared in Aggron's mind—a massive figure emanating astonishing Curse Power, releasing endless Fear Fluctuation.
Bang.....
The image of Aggron falling down strikingly stimulated every competitor from various countries. They looked at each other, blankly feeling a chill rising in their bodies.
Such a terrifying Illusion Technique, if one's mental fortitude isn't up to par, they would absolutely be instantly defeated.
"This Illusion Technique... has no flaws," Fang Yuan also commented from the Hua Nation competitors' seats, feeling impressed. Among Jiang Li's top four nearly top-level powers, this Dream Demon was the most elusive, always killing the opponent in one encounter, truly formidable.
In the end, Eric didn't have a single Pokemon that could resist the Dream Demon's Illusion Technique. He did have a Moonstone that mainly trained Mental Power, but unfortunately, it was still too weak and not an ace, its power only pseudo-top level. Therefore, it was still no match for the Dream Demon.
Jiang Li, as the strongest combatant of China Team, easily secured victory in this battle!!!
And as for Indian Rock King Eric, he couldn't even wear down Jiang Li. If the Dream Demon's Hypnosis counts as wearing down due to multiple uses, then you could say he barely managed to do just that.
............
Next, the second individual battle, China's Super Power King Su Shu VS India's General Series King.
The outcome was Su Shu's victory. This General Series King was clearly stronger than the Rock King, and if Su Shu had faced him normally, it wouldn't have been as easy as Jiang Li's match. However, without a second word, Su Shu activated basic Superpower Amplification, which doesn't cause him too much exhaustion and could be recovered from with a bit of meditation, and significantly strengthened his Pokemon's abilities, essentially like cheating.
Combined with the top-tier Command Ability of Mind Induction, Su Shu was simply inhumane, not even sending out a top-level power Pokemon. He won with just four nearly-top-level Pokemon enhanced to the top tier domain through Superpower Amplification, which was like power-leveling.
Super Power King Su Shu, since he has the superpower to amplify Pokemon, can be said to have the most top-level combat power among the trainers of the China Team.
Although he did have a Pokemon lose its battle capability in this fight, nobody dared to judge Su Shu's strength based on this battle alone.
"I'll leave the rest to you guys; I'm going to meditate and recover quickly," Su Shu said with a smile as he returned to the competitor seats.
Jiang Li was speechless. This guy, he had a knack for hiding his strength. Even Jiang Li didn't know Su Shu's limits. But whether Su Shu recovers or not didn't really matter, since Jiang Li thought they wouldn't need to fight in the showdown if they didn't make it to the ring battles.
"Why do I feel..." Fang Yuan also fell silent next to him. Seeing Jiang Li and Su Shu's performances against the Indian Team, he couldn't help feeling that even without him, the China Team's chances of becoming champions were still very high.
Having them as your teammates... indeed brings peace of mind.
Jiang Li and Su Shu were definitely trainers of a monstrous caliber, while Yun Kai, Xu Haoran, and Sister Xie, although not as strong, were also formidable.
Hmm... Indeed, it seems that the two from India are just too weak. Perhaps, the strength of the Champion and Super Power King Jia Lan could be somewhat compelling?
Meanwhile, with two consecutive losses, the facial expression of India's representative Nasaruddin began to darken.
And Kong Hai had a smile on his face—surely this old man doesn't think the Indian Team could beat the China Team, does he? No way, no way, right?
It's a downright impossibility. Compared to the teams from four, eight, twelve years ago, this year's China National Team lineup is unprecedentedly powerful. The rate of development in China's Trainer Domain is not something other countries can even imagine.
In the Indian players' seats.
"The strongest two from their side have already made their move," Jia Lan said.
"Yes. Now it's our turn to strike back," Champion Rest nodded.
To the outside world, Jiang Li and Su Shu are undoubtedly the strongest on the China Team, and the remaining three would be much easier to handle.
At this point, the Indian Team had essentially used two weaker Four Heavenly Kings against China's strongest two.
Rest and Jia Lan knew what this meant—it meant that the real battle between the China Team and Indian Team would take place in the ring match.
As the yogi Jia Lan looked towards the direction of China's competitors' seats, he took a deep breath. Su Shu should not have expended much, and Jiang Li likewise. With that being the case, it would put significant pressure on Rest. If the Indian Team wanted to win, it seemed they could only rely on him using his Superpower secret technique to take a gamble.
............
The third battle was between Dragon King Yun Kai of China and the Poison King of India.
Trainers specializing in the Poison series are rare, but Yun Kai's fighting style was very aggressive.
This was because Fang Yuan had patted his shoulder before the battle and said, "My Milotic can even neutralize the poison of the Poison Algae Dragon from Dragon Island; don't worry, just endure the poison and beat her."
The King of the Poison Marsh, the Poison Algae Dragon, was a top-tier Dragon Overlord on Dragon Island with a terrifying mastery in Poison. But Milotic's Cleansing Water, being of the same caliber as Shui Jun's purifying power, could break through all but the Guardian God-level lethal poisons—it was a natural counter.
In this aspect, even Eevee's several healing moves were slightly inferior.
Thus, emboldened by Fang Yuan, Yun Kai resolutely ended the battle with extremely violent tactics, without the slightest concern that the Indian Poison woman's toxins would affect his subsequent battles, ruthlessly crushing the opposition.
In this battle, Yun Kai lost two Pokemon due to poisoning, rendering them incapable of fighting, and three fell into a state of severe poisoning.
"That's bad."
After the battle, Fang Yuan suddenly worried about one issue: poison could be cured, but Yun Kai would no longer be able to participate in the arena competitions. Of course, that wasn't the main issue; the concern was whether Yun Kai's few Pokemon would fall in love with Milotic.
Fang Yuan considered, if he were sick with a cold, to be tenderly cared for by a breathtakingly beautiful doctor, he would certainly be moved!
Ah well, never mind, Milotic certainly wouldn't reciprocate the feelings.
With this, the score between China and India was 6:0.
As the third match concluded, the Indian audience completely panicked—because if they lost one more match, the Indian team would have to go home.
However, luckily for India, the remaining two players were the strongest: Rest and Jia Lan. On the Chinese side were the not-so-strong Xu Haoran and Xie Qingyi. Additionally, India's second team had a substitute player with top-level power.
So if it came to the arena combat, there was still hope for victory.
"Come on Rest, come on Jia Lan, come on India!!!" the Indian audience began to shout frantically.
Over in the Indian players' area, with the Poison woman's loss, Rest and Jia Lan's expressions became much more serious.
If Yun Kai had fought cautiously out of fear of poison, the Poison King might have had a chance to win.
But the outcome did not develop in the direction they had anticipated.
"We can't lose." Jia Lan took a deep breath. He was India's fourth contestant. Following this, he and Rest absolutely couldn't afford to lose.
Otherwise, whether it was 8:0 or 8:2, their Indian team would be eliminated.
At this moment, the Chinese audience was excited, while the Indian audience was tense.
Amidst different atmospheres, a voice made the mood even more rigid.
"The fourth match, team battle, Fang Yuan vs Jia Lan!"
In the middle of the arena, Maki Noboru-hime on the Pidgeot read out the next selection for the battle with a complicated expression, and closely following, the battle screen displayed the portraits of Fang Yuan and Jia Lan.
Head Referee Maki Noboru-hime had not expected that Fang Yuan would directly participate in the team battle for China's first team!
As Maki Noboru-hime finished speaking, the Indian audience, the Chinese audience, the Indian players, and the players and audiences from all over the world were stunned.
Fang Yuan?
Had they heard wrong?
After such a battle with Gura, how could Fang Yuan still continue to compete??? Did this man still have the strength???
