Grapefruit juice is a very common drink in the market, which can effectively replenish physical strength while tasting delicious, and is the favorite choice of many trainers.

What Xiao Tian has in his hand is indeed his favorite brand of pomelo juice. But he doesn't have the habit of talking about his preferences in front of others, and he won't just drink this one because he likes it, so it stands to reason that Xiao Ye shouldn't know what kind of drink he likes.

He subconsciously thought that his father had made the choice for him, and before he could turn his head to ask clearly, Xiao Ye looked at it hesitantly.

Cold drinks are a powerful tool for relieving the heat in midsummer, and everyone drank several big sips as soon as they got the drink, only Xiaotian stared at the bottle expressionlessly, without any intention of drinking. Seeing this, Xiao Ye suddenly became apprehensive, and asked hesitantly, "What's wrong?" I remember this is indeed your favorite ......."

“…… It's nothing. Thank you. The silver-haired boy shook his head.

Seeing him open the bottle cap and take a few sips of juice, Xiao Ye was relieved and went to share a cold drink with Snow Boy, a refrigeration expert, and Pichu who had fried hot hair in his pocket. Xiao Tian glanced at the bottle in Xiao Ye's hand - the colorful advertising paper was printed with Alola Rechu's figure, just by looking at Pichu's loving look, he knew that this must have been chosen by Pichu.

The boy's gaze shifted from the bottle to the girl's side face, and finally hung down, hiding all his thoughts.

The contestants in the next game are Ash and Hiroshi. finally suppressed the doubts and dissatisfaction with the withdrawal of the gray dog, but the expectant spectators waited for an urgent notice.

“…… Again, due to an accident, the match between Tomoshi Yamaguchi and Hiroshi Miyagawa in the A3 group was postponed to the end, and Yukimitsu and Saki Akita from the A2 group were invited to enter the ......"

Xiao Jie stood up with a blank face, "What's the situation?"

The description of "sudden accident" is too vague, and Xiaojie even wondered if the two of them should go to chase the Rocket team in some corner again. The repeated sound of the radio did not leave him time to think wildly, and the golden retriever boy had no choice but to wave his hand to his partners, and after receiving five words of "come on", he walked to the runner's channel.

As for the only one who knows the truth...... Considering that the way he obtained the information was clairvoyant EX, Xiao Ye felt that it was better to remain at a loss at this time.

The successive accidents made the audience's dissatisfied discussions louder and louder. Fortunately, the four contestants scheduled for the fourth session in the afternoon, and the two contestants in the third session did not cause any further accidents, and soon took their respective positions and appeared in the trainer's seat.

Thus, the Yukimitsu vs Saki Akita match began.

Xiao Jie had already looked at the footage of his opponent's match in detail, and it was clear that the No. 7 seed was not an easy guy to deal with. But when it came to the actual fight, Xiaojie found that he still underestimated his opponent.

Saki Akita, who is good at using sandstorm weather and plays defensively, is different from the likes of Greyhound and Kyoji, whose performance is impressive, and her characteristics seem to be clear in just a few words, and do not make a strong impression. And with this inconspicuous but solid style of play, she steadily took over all of Xiaojie's attacks.

As the main attacker of the future, Xiao Jie's striking skills are already excellent among his peers, and his sharp moves combined with precise striking ability are enough to deal with opponents who are older than him. However, his invincible skills in the Quartz League tournament finally hit a solid barrier, and until both of his Pokémon had fallen, he still couldn't break his opponent's defenses, and only defeated one of Shaxi's Pokémon in a tug-of-war.

Faced with an unprecedented predicament, Xiaojie decisively dispatched his strongest general, the Desert Dragonfly. His opponent, Saki Akita, also retrieved the Pokémon that was still in combat power and sent the ace Bankiras.

The elves of the desert and the tyrant of the sandstorms, both of them are good at manipulating sandstorm weather. When the two Pokémon appeared, the sky immediately filled the entire arena, and even most of the audience seats were affected, and the front row of spectators ate several mouthfuls of sand unexpectedly.

The final battlefield is the very center of the flying yellow sand. The picture in the lens seems blurry, and you can only barely see the Pokémon fighting, and the power of the waveguide of Xiaoya has already unfolded, and everything is "seen" with the help of invisible rhythms.

Unlike most young players who are aggressively attacking, Saki Akita's style of play is unsharp, but he takes "stability" to the extreme. Her command was never wrong, and the rhythm of every instruction was just right, Xiaojie's fierce attacks were defused again and again, and the physical strength of the attacker who seemed to take the initiative plummeted, and still failed to leave a scar on Bankiras.

There's no trick to that. All she could see through was experience — far more difficult to deal with than any fancy tactics.

The trainer's battle style does have a similar relationship to the Pokémon stat of Synergy. For example, the main attacker will always suffer against someone who is good at tactics, while the guerrilla who is good at fast attack can often defeat the opponent before the strategist starts his tactics. In contrast, "attack" and "defense" are both subjects that do not require too many complex strategies, and when the main attacker and the defender meet, it is always the side with strong hardware conditions, accurate timing, and rich combat experience that has the advantage.

There is no doubt that in these fields, Xiaojie has fallen into an absolute disadvantage.

The desert dragonfly uses all its strength, and its dexterous or ferocious attacks are still ineffective. When its stamina had already hit a low point, Saki Akita and Bankiras finally caught a flaw that was glaring enough.

The tyrant of the sand and dust spat out a black aura of malice that lingered maliciously, and the desert dragonfly, which had been accustomed to facing the iron walls, suddenly saw the sharp fangs that the other party had hidden for a long time. The waves of evil pierce through the sandstorms, through the curtains of falling rocks, and through the barriers of the power of the earth, like arrows to the heart of the desert dragonfly.

The game is over.

Seeing his grandson return dejectedly, Yuan Zheng was so distressed that he was about to shed tears, and he couldn't wait to immediately press the little boy into his arms and comfort him. When he cautiously said, "Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, and if you lose once, you can win back ten more times, so don't be too sad, otherwise grandpa will be so sad that he will cry", the golden retriever boy who seemed to be immersed in frustration raised his head and said blankly, "I am not sad because I lost the game." ”

“…… Huh?" the old man was stunned.

"I'm sad that ......," said Xiaojie, snorting and teary eyes, "we agreed to decide our position in the team based on the results of the competition. Doesn't it mean that I'm the first to be out...... I'll only be an errand boy on the team in the future?aq!"

As soon as the words of "......" came out, the others immediately fell silent.

Saya blinked in confusion. The original agreement...... Is that the case? I always feel a little out of shape......

The three of them looked at each other in silence, and finally reached out and touched the errand boy's head in turn, either smiling, expressionless, or gloating.

Jj:...... Do you think I'm a cutty dog?!(Furious)

The battle between Xiaojie and Shaxi lasted for nearly an hour, and the sky was gradually darkening. The final match is about to begin, and Hiroshi from the green side appears early in the trainer's seat, but Ash is nowhere to be seen. The crowd was in an uproar again, almost suspecting that Greyhoublin's abandonment had a cascading effect, and the referee reluctantly intended to declare Hiro's victory after the allotted waiting time had passed.

However, Hong unexpectedly stopped the referee and said that he believed that Ash would not give up the game. Xiaoxia, who thought that "Ah Hong used the phone to coax Ash to make him unable to compete", couldn't stand Ah Hong's fake behavior, and jumped directly into the arena and scuffled with Ah Hong, so frightened that the commentator exclaimed again and again, and the security personnel also rushed up to separate the two, and the scene became uncontrollable for a while.

Fortunately, Ash did not disappear to the end, but appeared in a rather conspicuous way - he was dragged all the way to the quartz stadium by Bibi Bird in a hot air balloon on Team Rocket.

The spectators sitting in the stadium only felt that their brains had been filled with too many question marks generated throughout the afternoon, and they were almost overloaded with the card machine. Many people also saw the "R" logo on the hot air balloon, and guessed that it was the Rockets who sought revenge on the teenager who interfered with their criminal actions that caused a series of accidents, so they no longer clamored for an explanation from the players and the organizers.

In the evening, the final match of the round of 16 began. The way Ash appeared on the stage was surprising, and the way he exited was equally surprising -

His finale, Charizard, refused to follow instructions and was deemed by the referee to have "lost the will to fight", so he lost the match and missed out on the quarterfinals.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the round of 16 battles that were full of accidents and chaos finally came to an end. When walking out of the sports field with the flow of people at the end, Xiao Ling sighed that the level of players in this league is not necessarily the strongest, but the topic degree is definitely the highest in the past ten sessions - even if the terrorist attack on the eve of the top 16 is counted, it may be the highest in the past 100 sessions.

With the exception of Xiaojie, the other three will need to prepare for tomorrow's quarterfinals. After a hasty dinner, the crowd dispersed to carry out the necessary investigation.

On the way to the public computer area, Sayo sees her tomorrow's opponent leaning against the side of the hallway, as if waiting for something. The boy's white kimono seems to be glowing, and even if he doesn't say a word, he still has a peculiar temperament that attracts everyone's attention.

Saya stopped.

Bai Lan straightened up and walked to Xiao Ye step by step, "I'm glad to see that you fulfilled your promise." ”

His expression was calm, and his bright golden eyes looked directly at the person opposite, as if he didn't feel how strange his words seemed to the other party.

"You'll have to give it your all – see you tomorrow. ”

After saying that, the boy continued to walk forward without squinting, and whispered as he passed by Xiao Ye, "If you win, I will tell you something you want to know." ”

The figure in the white kimono soon disappeared at the end of the hallway, leaving only the purple-haired girl standing in place, her watery contemplative eyes melting into the shadows cast by her bangs.

【Event】The 381st Quartz League Column - Day 7

[Landlord] reporter mountaineering man

Day07 Blazing, the showdown of the top 16!

Hello all the world's battle enthusiasts, here is the "Today's Update" column of the annual Quartz League Competition, and the mountaineer will continue to bring you the latest information related to the event.

The wonderful round of 16 is over. Although there were many accidents along the way, let's return to the topic and discuss the highlights of today's game.

First of all, let me summarize the results of each group:

A1: Sugino clouds vs May Rain, May Rain wins.

A2: Saki Akita vs Yukimitsu, Saki Akita wins.

A3: Tomoshi Yamaguchi vs Hiroshi Miyagawa, Hirokatsu Miyagawa.

A4: Asaka Matsuda vs Daishi Shibayama, Daishi Shibayama.

B1: Thousand Sails vs Greyhounds, Thousand Sails wins.

B2: Kusama Kyoji vs Aoki Ki Kata, Aoki Ki Katsu.

B3: Beidou vs Furuya Yoma, Beidou wins.

B4: Xingyu Bailan vs Yamashita Yoshiki, Xingyu Bailan wins.

Undoubtedly, the most surprising of the eight matches was the B2 group, where Kyoji Kusama played against Kiroba Aoki. Before that, no one would have thought that tournament newcomer Kiriha Aoki would be able to defeat Kyoji Kusama, but the reality shocked us. In the matchup, Kiritha showed extremely amazing tactical ability, and he did not rely on luck, but relied on his own strength to defeat Kyoji Kusama in a dignified manner. I'll be posting a tactical analysis of this game on the second floor for everyone to watch.

Judging from the pre-race conversations between the two, they seem to be close friends - the interview video of the winner will be released soon, and I believe that the strongest dark horse of this year will answer everyone's common doubts for us.

After the loss of the No. 1 seed, the withdrawal of the No. 2 seed Greyhound was also puzzling. According to his opponent Qian Fan, Greyhound left the player village last night on the grounds that he was "in a hurry", and in the end, we still haven't figured out why this particular player joined the Quartz League and why he quit halfway through. Perhaps this will become a mystery for this competition.

No. 4 seed Yozana Furuya will face Beidou today. Mountaineer Man: I thought that the ghost made Yang really have a better chance of winning, but I didn't expect the result of this game to be completely different from the prediction. It seems that this year, I am also good at the "whoever I am optimistic about will lose" skill as always...... Even my two most hopeful rookie players from Shinshin Town were defeated...... (Grievance .jpg)

Straight to the point. Compared with the previous games, it can be said that the Beidou players showed their true strength in this battle. The tactics he used were clever and targeted, and the final battle showed extraordinary high-speed command skills, which was truly amazing. Such agile thinking skills can never be cultivated in a day or two, and perhaps judging from his height that he is still young is a mistake to judge people by their appearance.

In the battle between the two seeded players, Asaka Matsuda and Daishi Shibayama, the winner defeated Daishi Shibayama in the fighting system. He showed off the strength of a martial artist in this fierce fight, and everyone watching the fight in the stadium couldn't help but cheer him on.

Every match in the round of 16 is very exciting, and I hope you don't miss it. Here's a link to a video collection of all of today's games:

[Video]

Tomorrow is about to enter the white-hot quarterfinals, and I will still watch the live broadcast with everyone. The list of subgroups is as follows:

C1: Mayrain vs Saki Akita

C2: Hiroshi Miyagawa vs Daishi Shibayama

D1: Chiho vs Aoki Kikiba

D2: Beidou vs Xingyu Bailan

So, as always – let's wait and see!

====================

Small Theatre:

Tortured by the terrorist attack and then faced with the withdrawal of seeded players and the appearance of players in Rockets hot air balloons, the publicists of the major crisis: We don't want the salary, please allow us to resign. (Eyes die)
