Chapter 190: Du's Defeat! The Match Ends!

It happened almost in an instant!

Maintaining the light shield got it pierced by the electromagnetic cannon, and the huge red Gyarados was also engulfed by the cannon.

The dazzling gold-yellow electromagnetic cannon continuously washed over the red semi-transparent protective barrier,

The barrier, fortified with energy jointly provided by hundreds of Pokemon, teetered on the verge of collapse under this strike.

When the attack ended,

Zapdos still soared in the sky, while Mega Gyarados had already exited Mega Evolution, its eyes showing a vortex.

"The final exhibition match: Xiao Juer vs. Yulong Du, Xiao Juer Miss and her partner Zapdos win!"

Accompanying the referee's verdict,

The 100,000-strong audience erupted instantly—this flower-vase Xiao Juer actually defeated Yulong Du, who is considered one of the world's top three.

How could this not be shocking!

Plus the appearance of the legendary Pokemon Zapdos, it's practically igniting the scene!

Yulong Du, feeling lost, recalled his red Gyarados,

He sincerely praised Xiao Juer,

"I underestimated Miss Xiao Juer; I look forward to meeting her at the year-end World Championship!"

Sure!

After the pleasantries, the host went on stage to finish the interview, during which Ash and Da Wu also walked onto the stage,

Under the gaze of the crowd, Ash introduced the two games Round Boat and Pokemon Competition on the big screen to the world, and gave a preview of other upcoming games.

Incidentally, he announced that this tournament's champion would receive a co-branding opportunity and a generous reward.

This made each contestant roll up their sleeves and ready their fists.

At the same time,

Alola Pokemon School,

Computer expert Ma Ma Nei said this Round Boat game is somewhat fun.

He, who naturally excels at mental activities, naturally couldn't put down tower-defense competition-type games.

Especially after the opening performance, the excitement level declined,

Ma Ma Nei then devoted more time to experiencing Round Boat.

Lilia, Shuilian, and Ma Ao, however, couldn't get enough of Pokemon Competition's story mode and catching and hatching Pokemon.

Especially Lilia, who cannot interact with Pokemon in reality,

Upon encountering a new Pokemon, she would catch it, appearing determined to complete her illustrated guide.

She fiercely indulged her trainer cravings.

"The dark-skinned, red-haired 'Alolan Yulong Du' Qiaqi declared, 'Real men should play Pokemon Competition PvP!'"

The process of battling wits and courage with other trainers made Qiaqi exclaim how awesome it was!

In reality, battling Pokemon tires you out and requires rest, but in the game you needn't worry at all—you can go round after round.

In this process, Qiaqi gradually discovered the weather's boost to fire-type Pokemon.

Especially when facing water-type Pokemon,

Fire-type attacks grow stronger while the opponent's attacks weaken—it's practically like steaming salted fish.

This deeply impressed upon Qiaqi the importance of intense sunshine.

In the past, just listening to Professor Kukui's lecture,

he would hear it but never truly grasp, as he does now, the importance of seizing the weather at the start.

He even learned speed tactics,

If the opponent is fast, he would hold out for intense sunshine; if the opponent is slow, he would directly invoke intense sunshine.

In the game, holding out for intense sunshine still results in taking damage on the next attack, but in reality it does not at all.

In reality, holding firm and not being attacked lasts for a while before fading, thus providing an excellent time window for seizing the weather.

Professor Kukui also, in this process, played a few rounds and deeply felt the benefits of Pokemon Competition PvP.

Learning through enjoyment,

Ash's doing this is practically boundless merit; inwardly, one cannot help but admire Ash more.

In this process,

Feeling that both game types are highly playable, everyone unhesitatingly chose to spend money,

Even the usually calm and sensible Qiaqi couldn't resist spending money to top up Charizard and Blastoise, purchasing two Hellfire skins!

The black-red magma skill effect and the overbearing appearance made Qiaqi thrilled, feeling it was more than worth it.

Ma Ma Nei's card draws cost even more.

As for Miss Lilia, regardless of whether it's usable, she first topped up each game with 50,000 yuan as a reserve.

Thus, Ash's two games, riding the tailwind of this Master Tournament, quickly made a name worldwide.

……

In barely half a day, what shocked Ash was that revenue directly surpassed a hundred billion!

88.8 billion! And it's still heading toward a hundred billion!

The Masara Town staff responsible for server maintenance, upon seeing this figure, nearly fainted on the spot,

This is too damn exaggerated.

Ash was also somewhat surprised, but thinking it over, it makes sense,

Such a publicity scale is almost equivalent to the former world's nations' leaders mobilizing media power for nationwide promotion.

With tens of billions of people in the Pokemon world, even if just one-tenth, or even one percent or one per mille download, the resulting revenue would be extremely extravagant.

Especially at the very first wave, the pay‑to‑play content was not yet saturated, and the revenue at that time was the most exaggerated.

It reached 88.8 billion, unexpected, but still not unreasonable.

Thinking of the smile on Ash's face, it grew even richer,

a peripheral glance caught Daigo,

realizing that without Daigo's effort, this promotion could not have gone so smoothly.

Ash's gaze toward Daigo instantly became full of kindness.

"What's wrong?" Daigo asked, puzzled.

"Regarding the disaster in Kanaz City, since President Loz donated 500 million Alliance Coins, I'll donate a bit too."

Is there such a good thing?

Daigo thought to himself, this script doesn't add up!

But seeing the smile on Ash's face, it was clear he'd encountered something good, and Ash indeed wasn't short of money.

Daigo didn't refuse; instead, he showed anticipation.

Ash's face showed contemplation,

"He's the president, I'm just an ordinary trainer, give me a discount."

Daigo nodded seriously, indeed, you are ordinary…

You're ordinary?

You're serious?

Daigo plaintively rolled his eyes, showing a pitiful expression.

However,

regarding Ash's request for a discount, he was very agreeable.

just didn't know how much of a discount Ash wanted.

"I'll donate one billion then!"

"Huh?"

Daigo was stunned for a moment, instinctively stretched out his hand and counted on his fingers,

That's wrong, how can a discount end up being more?

"Alright, alright! So that's the discount, right?!"

Seeing the smile hanging on Ash's face, Daigo knew the other was teasing him and couldn't help rolling his eyes.

"In that case, I'll thank you on behalf of the disaster victims of Fengyuan Kanaz City."

Meanwhile,

as the competition progressed, by evening the final winner was finally decided.

Champion Ming yi, Runner-up Xiao Yao, third place Xiao Guang, fourth place Keerni,

Tierno and Serena, along with the filler players Xia and Qiao Yi, made the Quarter-finals.

Ash announced that a few days later, the game would add performance outfits for the Quarter-finals participants,

and also noted,

the game would also add Champion outfits for Ash, Xi Rona, Ka Lu Nai, Daigo, Yulongdu, Dan Di, and others.

as well as outfits for popular Champions and Gym Leaders such as Jiade Liya, Nana, Xiao Ju, Lu Li Na, and Qi Shu.

Also the outfits of the evil organization Rocket Team.

and the limited‑edition sets of the Lava Team, Ocean Team, Galaxy Team, and Plasma Team, so ordinary people can promptly stay away from these dangerous individuals.

The final award ceremony,

Ash stood with the women for a group photo and gave a wave of game‑coin rewards to all participants of the Top‑32.

Then there were the official benefits,

To reward the top three, Daigo, together with Ash, selected three starter Pokémon of 6v.

Ming yi, as Champion, first chose a Pokémon; she chose a baby wood gecko, a lizard king offspring that, after Mega Evolution, changes its type from Grass to Grass + Dragon.

Xiao Yao and Xiao Guang, after learning Keerni's and Tierno's reasons for entering—to obtain Fengyuan starter Pokémon—voluntarily gave up their selection slots.

After thanking Xiao Yao and Xiao Guang,

Keerni chose a Fire Chick, adding another high‑potential Pokémon with a Fighting attribute to the lineup.

Tierno directly gathered the three starter Pokémon of Water, Fire, and Grass across generations: Charizard, Serperior, and a Water‑type leaping fish.

Thus, this Fengyuan trip was completely concluded.

Early the next morning everyone split up and went their separate ways.

Evening,

Several women gathered in Ash's room, and it stayed until 22:00; Xiao Ju, Ka Lu Nai, and Xi Rona still refused to leave.

Serena, using a pretext of having a question, sent Ka Lu Nai away and also took Keerni with her.

Immediately after, Tierno sent Xiao Ju away, and Xiao Guang sent Xi Rona away.

At that point only Xia, Xiao Yao, and Ming yi remained in the room.
