Fang Yuan's arrival was without any forewarning.
In the spectator stands, many eyes were fixed on Fang Yuan's figure, revealing expressions of shock.
The... the original one?
Did he really show up?!
In a certain place, English Champion Kani clenched the railing, the corners of her mouth twitching.
Behind her, President Antonio, stroking his beard, said, "It might have been better not to tell him."
What is this all about.
Could it be that Fang Yuan actually intended to accept the challenge?
The opponent was a Guardian God Level Phantom Pokemon!
It would have been one thing if it was a main force confrontation, but the challenger specifically named Fang Yuan's second team's Venusaur!
Wasn't that Venusaur just below top-level two years ago?
"Fang Yuan, this guy really likes joining in the excitement," someone muttered.
Meanwhile.
In an inconspicuous corner of the spectator stands.
Hua Nation's Master Kong Hai, Shang Ren, and second team candidate Lin Sen had also arrived early.
They naturally knew about this farce too.
It's just that they hadn't expected that they had just finished discussing "Wolf Boy" Cain when this guy actually publicly challenged Fang Yuan.
And Fang Yuan actually showed up.
"There shouldn't be any problems, right?"
Lin Sen and the others stammered, "If worse comes to worst, the main force could step in."
They were also speechless; Cain was showing off too much, challenging Fang Yuan's second-team Pokemon. What did that prove? If he had any real skill, he'd challenge that Monferno!
Fire Monkey VS Grass Monkey!
"Relax."
At that moment, Shang Ren had figured it all out; Fang Yuan's Venusaur had both Mega Evolution and an exclusive Z-Move under its belt, along with a Dominant Field. Even if the opponent was a Phantom Pokemon, a battle might not be out of the question.
"Shang Ren, if Fang Yuan really faces the challenge with Venusaur, what do you think his chances of winning are?" Yun Guancheng asked.
"100%."
Before Shang Ren could respond, a confident voice reached everyone's ears.
He Xiaomai, dressed in a red and white battle uniform, appeared and after offering her brief answer, she took a seat next to everyone to watch the battle.
Seeing He Xiaomai's confident demeanor, Master Kong Hai couldn't help but glance at the young girl.
Seems like the little freak has a lot of confidence in the big freak...
"Not bad for a student of Fang Yuan, your perspective and judgment are both quite impressive."
"Would you be interested in some intensive training with me?"
At this moment, another female voice rang out.
While everyone's eyes were on He Xiaomai, they completely overlooked another beautiful figure dressed in Hanfu.
This figure, in the meantime, had taken a seat next to He Xiaomai, smiling at her.
"Uh..."
He Xiaomai was taken aback, she turned to Luo Kuo, "Aren't you the Nine Tails that guards my teacher's research institute? Training with you?"
Could it be, this Nine Tails has a hidden identity?
Speaking of which, why did this Nine Tails also come to Alliance Island this time?
"Not interested, huh." Luo Kuo chuckled and shook her head.
To think she'd look down on an invitation from a house of two Emperors... Such high standards befit a student of Fang Yuan!
"Watch carefully, this battle is destined to forge an unprecedented era, becoming the most dazzling chapter..."
Luo Kuo's eyes gleamed as she looked toward the field, no longer preoccupied with anything else. At this moment, the confrontation involving Venusaur was of utmost importance.
As Luo Kuo made her appearance, Shang Ren, Lin Sen, and the others immediately widened their eyes.
Holy smokes, how beautiful, who is this person.
Only... why can't they understand what she's saying?
"It's you." Among the people there, only Master Kong Hai recognized Luo Kuo as the Nine Tails from Sun and Moon Forest...
However, this Nine Tails, why does she feel so different???
......
As the Trainers looked on in astonishment, Fang Yuan had already walked to the center of the field.
Opposite him, Cain and Salu De were staring at Fang Yuan with serious expressions.
From the shouts of the crowd around them, Cain and the others could confirm that this person was the Fang Yuan they were seeking.
That is, the Trainer that Shaymin liked, the Venusaur's Trainer.
"You're looking for me?"
Fang Yuan scratched the back of his head, it sure is hot today...
Eevee, cooling please!
On Fang Yuan's shoulder, Eevee listlessly retorted that as a mature waveguide user, he should learn to create his own airflow for cooling.
"Yes!"
"You must be the Doctor Fang Yuan that Kani sister mentioned."
"The one whose Venusaur, related to Shaymin, is the Pokémon Trainer," Cain said with a solemn expression.
He recalled all he knew about Fang Yuan.
He had long been informed by Kani that if he participated in the World Tournament, Fang Yuan could be his greatest opponent.
But Cain hadn't expected to end up challenging Fang Yuan upfront in this manner.
"My Venusaur indeed had an encounter with Shaymin."
"It's you guys! My 'Abba' and I challenge you to prove that 'Abba' is definitely superior and more powerful than your Venusaur!"
"Only the most powerful Pokémon are worthy of Shaymin!" Cain declared through gritted teeth, with the fierce tone of a wild beast.
Boom!
At this moment, as the conversation between Cain and Fang Yuan escalated, a lot of Trainers showed shocked expressions.
The media were gaping, feeling as if they had just heard explosive news.
So the real reason Cain challenged Fang Yuan was for Cain's 'Abba', the Phantom Pokémon Salu De, to compete with Doctor Fang Yuan's Venusaur for the right to associate with Shaymin, a League of Divine Realm Phantom Pokémon?!
This is absurdly fantastic.
"Salu!!!"
Salu De looked at Fang Yuan and Eevee with a fierce expression.
Fang Yuan observed them for a moment.
At the same time, Eevee also fixed its gaze on Salu De.
The next instant.
