After being reminded by Sirona, Xia Chen remembered that there was such a thing.

When I was in Hoenn last year, Mikeli also mentioned it to himself, and almost half a year has passed in a blink of an eye

Before he had time to sigh, Xia Chen suddenly remembered something, "Before this, do you still have to participate in the Daoist Master Selection Competitions in various regions?" ”

Of course, it is impossible for all of the eighteen Daoist hall masters in Donghuang to participate, and the selection competition naturally came into being.

Xia Chen glanced at the time on the computer desktop, and at 17:23 on February 19, 2026, he sighed in his heart.

"It's not going to be over, is it?"

He hurriedly went to the official website of the Donghuang Alliance to check the start time of the trials, and it was a coincidence that it was on February 20th, and he was about to miss it.

Xia Chen breathed a sigh of relief, for others, it was a bit tight to rush from Padia to Donghuang in one night, but Xia Chen was different, there was a reason why Leton was here, it was just an hour's journey.

After making sure that he would not miss the game, Xia Chen was not so anxious, he looked at Sirona beside him, "Do you want to take a ride, I'll send you back to Sinnoh first?" ”

Sirona nodded inexplicably, so although Loton was not as comfortable as a means of transportation like an airplane, his speed could throw him off a lot, and after so many days off, it would be good to go back earlier.

Greet Orin in advance, and after dinner, the two leave Area Zero.

Seeing the night sky again, the two of them didn't feel like they were separated from each other.

Every day after dinner, they will go to the upper floor of Area Zero to breathe, otherwise they will be depressed if they stay at the bottom of the depression that has no light all year round.

However, when they saw the warm human lights in Jinhui Town, they were still in a trance, especially Xia Chen, who had been isolated from the world for almost two months, and had never seen a living person except for Sirona.

That is, there are elves in this world, otherwise Xia Chen will not be able to stand this loneliness.

There was no time to sigh more, shining on the bright moonlight sprinkled in the sky, Xia Chen waved goodbye to the lights behind him, and left Pardia with Sirona.

…………

By the way, when Shirona returned to Sinnoh and returned to Zhijiang Yuanling Island again, it was almost nine o'clock in the evening.

When the chief housekeeper Chrissjia heard that Xia Chen was back, he didn't bother to bother, and hurriedly ran over to tell him what had happened on the island during this time.

"The most important thing, the Yuanling Daoist Pavilion has been officially completed at the beginning of this month, and it can be put into use at any time, and then, Sister Jiang Qian and many other people have frequently looked for you in the past two months, and I have left a phone number for visitors, and besides, a person named Lian Shuxiang, who claims to be the head of the management department of the Daoist Hall, has notified the information that is more important, and asked if you still participate in the February 20th, that is, tomorrow's tryout?"

Having just escaped from the bitter sea of studying too crystallization, and coming back from a deep quagmire of miscellaneous, Xia Chen was unable to lie on the sofa on his back, enjoying Shanaiduo's knee pillow and massage.

"The rest will be put on hold in advance, the focus is on tomorrow's tryouts, help me back and I'll be on time. By the way, where is the place of the competition? ”

Chrisskaard glanced down at her phone, "Uh, I'll see, Xingsha City." ”

Xia Chen sighed, sat up and stretched, "So let's go, let's go to Xingsha City." ”

Xingsha City is also one of the big cities in the south of Donghuang, and it is about 1,000 kilometers away from the river, so at the speed of Le Dun, it is enough to put on headphones and listen to a few songs.

I don't know if it's the reason why the Donghuang Trials of the World Gym Master Contest will be held here tomorrow, Xia Chen couldn't book an ordinary room in the hotel when he came over.

Helplessly, he had no choice but to activate his money ability and stay in the champion suite for tens of thousands of nights.

There is no registration link in the selection competition, and there are only so many who are eligible to participate in the whole region, except for two who know that their strength is not enough and they are told early that they will not participate, and the rest are a total of 16 people who participated.

The format is a double-elimination system with a higher margin for error, avoiding a situation where two powerful top gym owners meet in the first round in the draw and must eliminate one of them.

After all, the real battlefield is next month's World Championship, and the alliance and all the Donghuang people hope that the four strongest Dao Masters will represent the Donghuang Alliance.

The match table has been announced on the official website a few days ago, Xia Chen's first round opponent is Ge Xi of the Ice Zhen Gym in Litang City, a bit of a strange name, but because it is the name of Qingyuan, it is not strange.

Speaking of which, Xia Chen also beat the heir of the Bingzhen Daoist Pavilion in the Donghuang Youth Competition more than a year ago, but he didn't expect it to be so coincidental this time, and he directly hit the owner of the hall.

Then again, if you analyze it carefully, the strength of the Ice Zhen Gym is at the upper middle level among the eighteen series.

It is not as good as the well-known Taoist halls in the more developed areas of the southeast coast, but because of its special environment, it is a very good habitat for ice spirits.

When the "source of students" is relatively good, the dojo is not weak.

As for the tactics, it's all Ice Gym, and it's a bit unreasonable to say that if you don't fight the Snow Sky Team to revive the glory of the Snow Sky, when did the Snow Sky Team have any glory?

In short, tomorrow's game is most likely just a small test, and the stage is not big enough, so there is no need to use too crystalline.

After a brief analysis of the opponents in the first round, Xia Chen fell into a deep sleep.

…………

The next day, Xia Chen, who fell asleep in the new environment, still got up early.

After breakfast, I meditated deeply for a while, and when I opened my eyes again, it was exactly half an hour before the start of the game.

Slowly walked to the competition venue not far from the hotel, and it was inevitable to meet fans and fans on the way.

"Master Pigeon, you really appeared! The Internet says that you have pigeons this race! ”

"Master Pigeon, Master Pigeon, I'm your fan, can you cheer for me for the cutest elf fairy cloth in the world?"

"Master Pigeon, please, can you make Shanaiduo super evolve today, I want to see the black dress Shanaiduo want to go crazy!"

“.”

And so on.

Most of them say that they are their fans, and then they are the little sunspots who cheer for the elves.

Xia Chen walked through the crowd with a black face, walked into the athletes' passage, and followed the staff in charge of guidance into his own lounge, and the world was pure.

There were eight matches in the first round, and only half of them were played today.

The battles above the gym level basically use the 6v6 that best reflects the overall strength of the trainer, which has the advantage of being exciting enough, but the duration will be much longer than 3v3.

So there are two hours reserved for each game, and of course, most of the time it doesn't have to be that long.

In the case of a large gap in strength, it is not impossible to play 6:0 in less than half an hour.

Xia Chen's game was the second game in the morning, and it didn't start until ten o'clock.

With nothing to do, he naturally watched the first game with the elves in the players' lounge.

The two sides of the battle are Lei Jun, the owner of the Shining Dao Gym of the electric system, and Xie Qing, the owner of the Tiannan Dao Gym of the poison department, and they have no attribute restraint relationship between each other, but the difference in strength is relatively large.

The Electricity Gym is located in the prosperous Nandu, and the Poison Daoist is located in Tiannan, an economically underdeveloped area on the border of Donghuang.

The economic base determines the superstructure, and the expensive profession of a trainer is naturally also a kind of superstructure, and it is normal for there to be differences in strength.

After a fierce battle for more than half an hour, Xie Qing, the young owner who had just inherited the family business, lost to the veteran owner Lei Jun with a score of 2:6 and fell into the loser's group.

There was nothing to say about the whole game, two words, crushing.

The only thing worth mentioning is that Lei Jun's electric dragon and Xie Qing's wonderful frog flower have both completed super evolution in the game.

Seeing the subtle knowledge, it can be inferred that the speed of superevolution in the world is still quite fast.

…………

It was just under nine o'clock at the end of the first game, and it was still very early before the start time of the second game at ten o'clock, and most commercial games should be advertising time at this time.

But Xia Chen received a notice that he was going to start playing at nine o'clock, after all, the purpose of the selection tournament was not so commercial.

After a brief clean-up, leaving the four unplayable elves to watch the battle in the lounge, he walked through the corridor and stepped into the battlefield.

The loud volume was so loud that some noisy stadium noises came from the stands, which made Xia Chen, who had only returned to human society yesterday, a little uncomfortable.

But it doesn't have much impact, how to fight or how to fight.

In the first round of the selection competition, the attention of this game was relatively high.

In addition to Xia Chen, who is relatively popular as an "Internet celebrity gym owner", there are also many people waiting to see how the youngest gym owner can perform in the competition after being promoted.

With the referee on the shield sword monster blowing the whistle, the game officially began.

"Go, Blizzard!"

"Menas, prepare for battle!"

The white light appeared in sync with the shouts of the two trainers on the sidelines, and the starting elves of both sides appeared.

The Blizzard King of the Grass and Ice Twin Lines, and Menas, who has evolved into a water dragon.

The new shape of Menas, which has not appeared in the public eye for a long time, really amazed the audience again.

According to Jiang Qian, every time Menas appears in the competition, the sales of the beautiful energy cube will increase by a bit, and the live broadcast will bring the goods.

On the opponent's side, the direct appearance of the Blizzard King made Xia Chen a little unexpected.

He also thought that Gexi would play the opening routine of opening the aurora curtain with the snow and ice that he was most familiar with and the best at.

Did you guess that you would go to Menas to grab the weather, so you went directly to the ace elf Blizzard King that Menas couldn't handle?

It's not impossible.

Although the attribute combination of grass ice is notoriously weak, there is really nothing to beat it in Xia Chen's lineup, especially the lack of fire spirits, so that the thick-skinned Blizzard King can be completely tough.

However, Xia Chen was not in a hurry to change the elf, Menas, but it was not as simple as the opponent thought.

…………

Xia Chen's mind was in a hurry, and the goose feather snow mixed with fine hail had already fallen in the sky, which was the activation of the Blizzard King trait [Snowfall].

He was about to command Menas to use or leap into the abyss to grab the weather, but he keenly noticed that there was a gem under the heavy snow-white fur of the Blizzard King, reflecting a dazzling light.

Xia Chen raised his eyebrows in surprise, is it the Blizzard King Super Stone?

In that case, there is no rush to change the weather.

The characteristics of the Super Blizzard King are still snowfall, and now the weather is grabbed, and the opponent's super evolution is changed back after a while, and it is equivalent to a white ride.

Thinking so, Xia Chen commanded: "Menas, butterfly dance!" ”

Blizzard's output is not violent, first be greedy.

Ge Xi, who deliberately waited for the back hand, reacted quickly, and immediately shouted: "Blizzard King, Blizzard!" ”

Menas is a live target when the butterfly dances, and if you don't use the most powerful move at this time, when will you wait?

Whew-

A cold wind suddenly blew in the battlefield without a source, and a cold breath swept across the field.

This is the coldest day before the beginning of spring, Xingsha City is below zero all day, in such an environment, the cold wind is rising, and many people in the audience have begun to scold their mothers.

But this is a ticket I bought, and I have to finish it while crying.

Driven by the energy of the Blizzard King, who was close to the Heavenly King level, the already biting cold wind became more and more bitter, and the extremely high wind speed made the entire battle battlefield seem to turn into a snow-capped mountain thousands of meters high.

The snow in the sky was even bigger, and what was even more dangerous was that the white snow was mixed with a lot of ice gravel almost the size of a fist.

They were swept up in the cold wind controlled by the Blizzard King, and kept smashing towards Menas, who were still dancing leisurely as if nothing was in their surroundings.

Bang bang bang –

The ice formed by the condensation of ice energy not only adheres to terrifying energy that can erode into the bones, but is also far stronger than ordinary ice gravel in nature.

Large and small ice cubes smashed on the blue jade scales of Menas, and the crisp sound of ice porcelain colliding was thrilling.

Ge Xi from a remote area gasped, and sighed in his heart - what a hard Menas.

It's not that he hasn't watched Xia Chen's game on TV, although it is really amazing, but there is one thing to say, that level of competition can't touch the battle between the masters of the gym.

This time it really happened, and Gexi found out that this guy was even stronger than what he saw on TV.

This guy is improving again!

It seems that it is not possible to use hyper-evolution anymore.

Gexi's somewhat rough hand rubbed the keystone hidden in a string of beads on his chest, and secretly made up his mind.

…………

Because of Butterfly Dance's improved special defense, the more this blizzard blows, the less damage it causes.

In addition, Menas was already extremely highly defensive, and after the snowstorm, Menas's scales were only slightly cracked like slightly flawed white jade, and he was obviously not injured much.

Gexi knew this very well, so at the moment when the blizzard ended, he did not hesitate to show the keystone and recite the words in his mouth.

"Supreme God of Ice and Snow, please give me your power, winter is coming!"

Xia Chen was quite speechless, how long has it been since the super evolution appeared, and the standard middle two lines have become popular?

I'm thinking about my sister too!

Jokes aside, Xia Chen put away his thoughts, squinted at the Blizzard King who exuded a light blue ice glow, and when his super evolution light came to the brightest, he said in a deep voice: "Menas, or jump in the abyss!" ”

The wind and snow on the field were too big, and the noisy noise drowned out Xia Chen's command voice and failed to transmit it to the audience on the sidelines.

So they didn't know at the moment what an amazing scene they would see in a moment.

"Roar—"

A high-pitched roar tore at the light of evolution, revealing the face of the Super Blizzard King under the light.

Originally standing, it had to lie on its stomach due to its huge size, and its body hair was like an umbrella tree, lush and sharp.

The four sprouts on the back had grown into huge icicles, emitting a dangerous chill.

Just by looking at it, it was many times more burly and majestic than the original ordinary form of the Blizzard King.

The same is true for actual changes.

In the game, Super Blizzard's increased race value is all focused on double attack and double defense, and even speed is sacrificed by thirty points.

The changes in offensive and defensive capabilities before and after are not insignificant.

Super Blizzard is like a heavy tank, although the driving speed is slow, but its offensive and defensive strength is amazingly high.

This is the first time that Super Blizzard King has appeared in the official public competition, and the audience is carefully observing and admiring the ice and snow monster that the camera gives a close-up, and the next second, a sudden change occurs.

…………

Under the extremely burly body of the Super Blizzard King, a burst of water suddenly rolled up.

At first, the current was inconspicuous, completely obscured by the Blizzard King's generous bear paws and the heavy snow falling from the sky, but soon, the sound of a dragon's groan, as if coming from another world, made it sense that something was wrong.

Before he could react, in the next moment, an azure "Menas" composed of pure water elements suddenly broke through the water array and roared out.

"Roar—"

The dragon roar that was so loud that it overshadowed the mixed wind and snow sounded, and the Super Blizzard King, who didn't have time to react at all, was lifted by this unknown water system move, and after being pushed up to a height of several meters by the water dragon, he fell down heavily, embarrassed.

After the impact on the Super Blizzard King, the water dragon did not stop, but continued to fly upwards with its head held high, and finally, after touching the snowy clouds falling in the sky, it exploded.

Then, the water dragon turned into a large cloud of mist and dispersed, but I saw that the snowflakes that had been scattered in the sky suddenly stopped, and were replaced by a sudden torrential rain!

It's snowing and raining!

The incredible scene on the field made the audience exclaim in surprise, not to mention how the water type move, which was twice resisted, caused such high damage to the Super Blizzard King.

This change of weather alone is a little incomprehensible-

In addition to the move [Asking for Rain] and the trait [Rain], there are also moves that can turn the field into a rainy day?

Xia Chen and Menas once again opened the eyes of the audience.

Many of the trainers in the audience who specialize in the water system are even more enthusiastic, and their eyes are shining.

With this move, why worry about my team not being happy on a rainy day!

It definitely doesn't look weaker than the intuitive power of a water cannon, and it comes with asking for rain. This TM Gaioca has to shout "water god" when he comes, right?

The mood of the audience was amazed and emotional, and Gexi on the field frowned deeply.

The rewriting of Xuetian was definitely quite unfavorable for him.

Snow teamSnow team, can it still be called snow team when it's not snowing?

So use [Snow Scene] to regain the weather?

Let's not talk about the rhythm or not, another more serious problem is in front of us-

Super Blizzard King can only open the weather, and Menas can also hit damage when opening the weather!

Who's playing with you?

He could imagine the most likely scenario for a moment - the two sides took turns unleashing [Snow Scene] and the unknown water-based move.

However, in the end, he didn't get anything but wasting time, and the other party was able to prostitute and hurt him when he grabbed the weather.

Gexi's brow was almost furrowed into the mountains and plateaus of his hometown.

The innocent man from Qingyuan was directly stunned, are all the people in the city so rogue?
