Chapter 327: The Competition Begins

The news spread that they were going to compete against the world champion.

Many people came, and they were all curious about how many situations would occur with the world champion this time.

"Really? I think this is a joke."

"How could they come to our small place? If that's the case, then we must buy tickets this time."

The villagers in Bright Town were overjoyed when they heard the news, though some felt it wasn't realistic.

"I don't think there's anything to it, this is very normal. And aren't they traveling here to become stronger people?"

Some people felt this was a gimmick released on purpose.

Some people felt that Ash and the others were really here; anyway, everyone thought differently.

Ash and the others didn't know what these people were thinking, they only knew that the situation ahead was a bit beyond expectations.

"Are we really going to battle such big Pokémon? And their names are very long, these are things left over from ancient times."

When they went to see the introductions of the Poké Balls in the collection hall, they were all dumbfounded.

"I also think it's very rare, but if we can win this, it will definitely be very proud."

"After all, there has never been such a situation before, what do you think?"

Hearing Ash say this, the few of them nodded hurriedly.

"I also think he's right."

"If it were before, I wouldn't have had such confidence, but now this feeling has become very strong."

The two were speaking seriously, and although the others felt it was strange.

They still nodded.

On the day of the competition, they came early.

When they arrived at the scene, they found that many people had already gathered, and it was packed.

Gym Leader Liu was very happy to see this.

He had originally thought this would only be a small part of the income, but he didn't expect to sell so many tickets.

"Everyone wait properly, in another half an hour, all the competition personnel will come out. This is the champion team you are looking forward to."

Someone here shouted with a megaphone, and the audience below was completely ecstatic.

"They really didn't lie, it's really Ash and the others. I wanted to see them in person before."

"Don't talk about you, I want to too. If I can see them and spar with their Pokémon, what an honor that would be."

Everyone was very happy when they thought of this.

Ash and the others didn't know what was happening here, and they were a bit surprised when they saw the audience after going out.

"Why are there so many people this time? I remember the last time we competed elsewhere, this situation didn't happen."

Ash stared below and couldn't help but ask.

"Why did you call so many people over?"

Although they felt that this Gym Leader Liu was very strange, he could give them the opportunity to compete.

That was already quite good.

"What do you mean I called so many people over? They insisted on coming to support, and you are indeed very amazing, aren't you?"

If he had heard this at another time, Ash would definitely have retorted.

But now he also felt that what he said was not bad.

"Alright, then let's do it according to what you said, but the rules of the competition must be set according to the standard."

Some martial arts gyms had their own rules; Ash and the others only learned this after traveling for a while.

But now they had quite a few.

"Don't worry, of course I know what to do, and if I don't follow those regulations, I won't be at ease either."

He finished speaking seriously, and the other two nodded hurriedly.

The competition officially began, and the first to go on stage were Pikachu and another Pokémon. ===== CHAPTER 328 =====
