Chapter 390 Fighting Tournament Preliminary, the eve of the beating
The day of the world's first fighting tournament, the day of the preliminary round.
Icefield City, Icefield Mountain.
Icefield Mountain is a snowy mountain, with snow that never melts all year round, like an ice knife reaching straight into the sky.
The scenery in the snow here is magnificent, the sky and the earth are one color, and the momentum is magnificent. Due to the harsh environment, it has always been a good place for fighting trainers in Icefield City to exercise their will.
I don't know what kind of genius the organizers have, but the fighting tournament is actually held in such a cold place. If it weren't for Infernape, Fang Yuan would have wanted to withdraw from the competition.
"As for the preliminaries... Is it in that direction?"
Fang Yuan took the player's manual, followed by Infernape, who looked around, and slowly found the way. There was still plenty of time, so there was no rush.
"Buyi!!" In addition to Infernape, Fang Yuan was naturally accompanied by Eevee. Eevee was on Fang Yuan's shoulder, glanced at the map in the manual, and began to point and point.
You're going in the wrong direction.
"Ah, it's so noisy, it's disturbing my thoughts." Although the Ice Mountain is very cold, there are many spectators and contestants. The noisy sound caused Fang Yuan to make a wrong judgment.
...
"Please pay attention!!" "
Contestants of the World's No. 1 Fighting Tournament, the preliminaries are about to begin. Please go to the corresponding area according to your competition number to test the power of your moves!!"
"Repeat it..."
The sound of the loud speaker covered everything. Hearing the sound, Fang Yuan, who was warming up, looked at Infernape carrying the Gala Gala bone stick.
"Let's go." Fang Yuan said calmly, and Infernape nodded and followed.
Infernape carrying the bone stick is similar to the little Monkey King carrying the Ruyi Stick in "Dragon Ball".
Its dress attracted the attention of many people.
"Brother, you have something. Let Infernape cosplay as the eldest brother?" A young man passing by laughed.
"The Great Sage Equaling Heaven, Sun Wukong~~" On the other side, a little loli carried by a middle-aged uncle said in a baby voice.
"Thank you, everyone. Please support me and cheer for me in the second half of the preliminaries today." Fang Yuan smiled and greeted these friendly passers-by.
But is it really okay for this uncle to bring such a young girl to such a cold place?
Is he trying to train his daughter to be an ice trainer?
Along the way, Infernape followed Fang Yuan, and it always felt that it was persecuted again.
This bone stick is too eye-catching.
Although Infernape can now control its anger freely, Infernape has discovered through experiments that the bone stick is still a little useful.
Under the guidance of the bone stick, the anger that erupts is even more powerful.
So when you really want to erupt in anger, Infernape still has to use the bone stick, at least until Infernape has perfect control over its anger, you can throw away the bone stick.
It is worth mentioning that when Infernape is really fighting, it still relies on its fists. The bone stick is just a prop to fuel its anger, not a weapon...
Just like the Blue Fist Saint in the poisonous milk powder, it obviously carries a weapon on its back, but when it needs to fight, it needs to stick the weapon into the ground and fight with its fists.
"Excuse me... Can I interview you..."
"One minute is enough."
"Sorry." When Fang Yuan and his team went to the venue for the first half of the preliminaries, there were also TV reporters who saw that their combination was strange and wanted to interview them, but they were rejected by Fang Yuan.
Forget this level of interview, wait until they win the championship to interview again...
Although Fang Yuan really wants to show off like this, with Infernape's strength, it is estimated that Fang Yuan will not be able to show off this time.
"Alas... I am not doing well." Fang Yuan sighed in his heart. Of course, this is also related to the high level of this competition.
After all, they used to participate in the competitions of rookie trainers, and in this competition, there are many professional trainers who are close to the master level. It can't be blamed on Infernape... It is only over one year old, and the world should not be full of malice towards it.
Soon, Fang Yuan came behind a girl with cool short hair who was following Aledo.
"This should be the D zone preliminaries venue." Fang Yuan observed Aledo with his peripheral vision, and then looked forward. A huge move power tester was already set up in the center, and several staff members of the competition were currently checking the instrument parameters.
"Yeah." Hearing Fang Yuan's mumbling, the girl in front of him with Aledo nodded, although she didn't turn around.
Aledo, Ralts and the Awakening Stone... It seems that this is another rich girl.
Fang Yuan quietly lined up behind the other party. This competition seems to be very interesting.
About ten minutes later.
At 8 o'clock in the morning.
The staff of each preliminaries area started shouting again with loud speakers.
The first half of the preliminaries officially began!
But before it started, the person in charge of each area introduced the rules again.
In the first half of the preliminaries, the 256 contestants were confirmed in the form of score rankings using a move power tester.
In the second half of the preliminaries, the 128 contestants who entered the main competition were determined by referring to the score ranking of the first game.
The next part of the main competition was the familiar group promotion competition. Fang Yuan estimated that the organizers would separate the professional trainers as seeded players to prevent them from meeting each other in advance and affecting the excitement of the competition.
This time... Can I beat the seeded players?
Soon, after introducing the rules, the uncle with a mustache and glasses in Area D began to call out the numbers.
Starting from No. 401, one trainer after another took their Pokémon to test under the gaze of hundreds of people.
The first muscular man took Infernape.
Infernape found that he now had some of Infernape's temperament...
Ding...
"No. 401, Zhu Yan's Infernape, 98 points."
"No. 402..."
"403..."
According to the pre-test results before the start of the tournament, scores above 200 are already very high, and are basically achieved by professional trainers' Pokémons.
And players with scores above 100 can almost pass the first half of the preliminaries.
One by one, the test was conducted, and the test speed was very fast. In Fang Yuan's group, the highest Pokémon scored 140 points.
After a while, it was Fang Yuan's turn to be tested. This auspicious number made Fang Yuan feel a sense of déjà vu.
"No. 444, Fang Yuan and Infernape, right?" The bespectacled uncle with a mustache held the list and looked at Fang Yuan and Infernape who came up and confirmed.
"Yes." Fang Yuan said.
"Then let's start."
After Fang Yuan and Infernape came up, many people laughed. It was the first time for these players to see Infernape carrying a bone stick.
But soon, they stopped laughing.
The Infernape, whose state of mind entered the "Desolate Soul Fist" state, was not as wild as when it just evolved. Instead, it returned to the period of the young Infernape, and was more Buddhist and sincere.
But this does not mean that the Infernape has become weaker. On the contrary, this state of mind can make its anger burst out better, which is why the Infernape successfully controlled its anger.
Looking at the machine in front of it... The Infernape stomped hard on the ground and used all its strength. Then, the flames at its tail suddenly doubled. The flame energy in its body flowed rapidly along a certain trajectory, like a volcanic eruption!
Suddenly, the Infernape punched out, and the shadow of the fist was like light, and the violent vibration was instantly transmitted to everyone's ears.
Flame Fist, 147 points!
Just by mobilizing emotions and not showing the real state of anger, it has increased by a full 20 points on the basis of a few days ago! This is also the reason why Fang Yuan did not let it use the True Qi Fist to test. This kind of powerful Flame Fist is enough to pass the preliminaries.
True Qi Fist, Fang Yuan plans to hide a hand.
Infernape proved its talent with real progress. Although it is currently at the bottom, sooner or later, it will improve one place!!
147 points, the highest score in Area D.
In an instant, those trainers who teased Infernape widened their eyes, hissing... Even an ordinary Infernape would find it difficult to score this score with a flaming fist...
Fang Yuan was very calm, not surprised. These were all small scenes, not worth being proud of, because soon, a real strong player would appear.
The girl with Alega, her Alega scored 180 points in a close combat.
The senior trainer of the Blue Blue Dojo scored 191 points with his Pokémon, close to the score of a professional trainer.
There was also a professional trainer who appeared and easily scored more than 200 points.
The scores of professional trainers in other areas... were also quickly passed here. The highest score has reached 488 points. This is a veteran professional trainer, a hot candidate for the title of Fighting Master this time.
These scores are beyond the norm for too many Infernapes. In the preliminary round of the fighting tournament, on the eve of the beating...
Fang Yuan patted Infernape on the shoulder and said softly, "Don't panic... Our trump card... must be stronger."
