It didn't take long for Ash and the others to return to the first floor of the dormitory building.

Before entering the door, you can clearly see a big smile on his face, not only because he successfully broke into the top 8 and achieved the best results since his two conferences, but also because he really defeated Xiao Mao's fierce rival for the first time, and on such an occasion, it does have a different meaning!

"Congratulations." Xia You applauded and smiled, "Just as I 'expected' before, it was you who won the game." ”

"Thank you." Seeing Xia You congratulating himself, Xiao Zhi scratched his head a little embarrassed, and remembered that he would be his next opponent, so he said with a straight face, "Brother Xia You, the day after tomorrow is our battle, I will work hard!" ”

Xia You's face suddenly became a little strange.

How can I say this mood, I came to congratulate him, but he said to his face that he would fight to defeat himself next, which made Xia You suddenly have a feeling of crying and laughing.

Forget it, for the sake of seeing that you are a child and a child of destiny, I will not care about you.

And in order to celebrate the successful promotion of the two, a big meal is naturally indispensable.

In addition to the five of them, including Hanako and Dr. Ohki, Xia Yu also invited Kenta and Marina, and called Meisa and Martha, and the group had a big meal in the private room of a nearby restaurant, and after the meal, as the oldest person here, just when Dr. Ohki wanted to carry forward his style and took the initiative to check out with a painful face, he found that the bill had been settled in advance by Xia You!

Looking at the smiling face of the waiter, Dr. Oki stood in place and couldn't help but sigh: What a thoughtful young junior......

In the evening, after everyone returned to their respective dormitories, Xia You stood on the balcony and accidentally saw Xiao Zhi leaving the dormitory alone and walking towards the lake of the Silver Stadium.

"What are you looking at?" Lijia walked up to him, put her arms around his waist from behind, and looked in the direction he was looking, "Huh? Isn't that Ash? What was he going to do so late? ”

"You don't have to think about it, you must be looking for Xiaomao."

"Looking for Xiaomao?" Lijia was surprised for a moment, and then nodded, "Indeed, the relationship between the two of them is very complicated, so they must be going to comfort Xiao Mao." ”

Reflexively hugged Lijia, smelling the good perfume on her body, Xia You smiled: "If it is Xiao Zhi who is eliminated, with Xiao Mao's current character, he will definitely go to him, but after tonight, Xiao Mao should have handed over all his dreams to Xiao Zhi." ”

"Why do you say that?" As soon as she spoke, Lijia noticed that her shirt was opened, and a big hand poked in, and her face couldn't help but turn red.

Xia You didn't explain much, just kneading and smiling: "No accident, Xiao Mao should be going to engage in scientific research next, I'm afraid that in the future conferences, I won't see his active figure anymore, okay, such a beautiful day, we can't waste time, let's celebrate it." ”

……

On the second day, because there was no competition of their own, Xia You and Lijia did not go out and stayed in their room all the time.

Today's battle was shown on TV, and on the computer, the two combed through Ash, Dusher, and the rest of the trainers who might become opponents, as well as their Pokémon that participated in the battle, focusing on their respective abilities, and really knew what they were doing.

Just like yesterday, there will be four more matches held today to determine the four other players who will enter the top 8, but among the people Natsuyu knows, only Kenta and Marina will decide the winner in today's showdown.

Maybe in the eyes of others, the game between them is nothing, but in the eyes of someone like Xia You, who knows a little bit about the relationship between the two, in terms of emotions alone, this game is far more cruel than the one between Xiao Zhi and Xiao Mao.

And as the game starts, it can be clearly felt that this game is roughly divided into three stages.

First of all, in the first stage, the two tested each other, maybe they didn't let go of their knots, and they didn't know how to face each other, it can be seen that the battle between them was cautious, and no one made a dead hand, not at all like the intensity of the round of 16 battles.

This confused the host, and made the audience turn their heads and ears to each other, full of doubts, and thought this was a fake match!

Even from the big screen, you can see the entanglement between Kenta and Marina, fortunately, this situation did not last long, maybe Marina figured out something, she no longer showed mercy, and with her sudden attack, Kenta was also driven, both of them let go of their hands and feet, and fought back and forth.

developed into the second stage, which also made the audience's mood a little more stable, at least some wonderful pictures appeared.

And this state of affairs continued until after halftime, and by the beginning of the second half, the two men had completely stopped holding each other and launched an all-out attack.

Judging from the level of these two people, Kenta is undoubtedly stronger than Marina, which also allowed him to defeat Marina's strong crocodile with Fire Storm Beast and reverse attribute at the last moment, and successfully advanced.

However, compared to Ash, Kenta was obviously not so excited after being promoted, but Marina, who was the opponent, seemed to be a little happy for her childhood sweetheart.

Alas, what a complicated relationship.

After the match between the two of them, there was another match between their semi-districts, but this match was obviously not so anxious, and there was a huge difference in strength, and it ended with a player from the Hoenn region named Ye Yue winning.

At this point, all the promoters in Xia You's half of the district have been determined, namely Xia You, Xiao Zhi, Kenta and Ye Yue, and in the next game, Xia You will also play against Xiao Zhi, and Kenta will fight Ye Yue to determine the top four candidates.

As for the opponents, Xia You and Lijia were also busy in the dormitory for a day, making several plans and making the final arrangements for their Pokémon to play tomorrow.

……

The quarterfinals and the top 16 are both winning tournaments, so there is no difference in the format.

It is also a 6-on-6 all-player battle, and the battle ground and the order of the first attack will also be decided before the game, and naturally there will be a 5-minute half-time break after the Pokémon of a certain player reaches three defeats.

The only difference is that netizens are more enthusiastic about who will qualify and finally enter the finals.

In Xia You's half of the district, because of the emergence of many powerful players, they left a deep impression on the audience, so even if Xia You was unbeatable and led with most of the votes, but Ash and Ye Yue also had a lot of votes, only Kenta, because of the release of water with Marina in the first half, his votes became the bottom.

In the other half of the district, there are no outstanding players except for Dushe, so most of them believe that the final battle will be between him and Xia You.

After a night's rest, at 9 a.m. the next day, Xia You and Xiao Zhi stood on both sides of the Silver Stadium, looking at each other from a distance.

It can be seen that Ash's complexion is good, his eyes are full of determination, and he looks eager to try.

After beating Xiao Mao yesterday, it undoubtedly brought him a lot of self-confidence, and also made him full of confidence in today's game.

There will be two matches today, in the morning he will play against Ash, and in the afternoon Kenta will play Ye Yue, and it will take only one day to decide the top four of their semi-divisions.

Seeing that the two of them were ready, the referee said loudly: "Now draw the battlefield for this time!" ”

Xia You and Xiao Zhi looked up at the same time, only to see that the turntable on the big screen began to rotate, and when it finally stopped, the pointer pointed to the Iwano Field again.

This is also good news for Ash, after all, he just fought in the field of rocks yesterday, not only has a good performance, but also adapts to the battlefield environment, so his chances of victory will undoubtedly increase slightly.

Immediately, when he decided to attack first, it was still Xia You's unlucky move to draw the first move.

In this regard, Xia You still didn't care, after all, he was used to it.

And under the gaze of everyone, the venue change also means that the battle between Xia You and Xiaozhi has officially begun!
