Chapter 516

"Ah?"

The reporters present were stunned for a moment, and then their eyes shone with unprecedented brightness.

A breaking news story had appeared!

The grand awards ceremony concluded in the blink of an eye.

On the podiums for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place were Su Hao, Ning Ling, and Shen Lingyun, who had won the third-place match, respectively.

In Su Hao's hand was a small, hand-copied book; this was the Alliance's secret technique for perpetual enhancement.

As the presenter, Li Luoyan emphasized during the ceremony that this hand-copied book must be returned to the Alliance after Su Hao memorized it and must never be leaked.

Otherwise, even Su Hao would have to accept legal punishment.

The time had reached ten o'clock in the evening, but the Ho-Oh Arena was still as bright as day, and the impassioned transition music played.

Even the residential areas further away could hear the sound.

The residents near the arena were not at all annoyed by the explosions and roars that had lasted all night; they were even sitting in rows in front of their televisions, looking forward to it.

Because the most high-profile member of the Elite Four in the Shenzhou Alliance was about to have an exhibition or, rather, a guidance match with the champion of the University Cup!

Ning Ling and Shen Lingyun held their valuable prizes and found a spot with a good view, their eyes fixed on the arena below.

Shen Lingyun glanced at Ning Ling's exquisite profile, clasped his hands behind his head, and said, "Who do you think will win?"

Having missed out on the championship, Ning Ling, whose emotions had not yet calmed down, was amused by Shen Lingyun's question. She covered her mouth and said, "Isn't that obvious?"

"I admit Su Hao is freakishly strong. To be honest, I have a feeling that he hadn't used his full strength in the battle against me."

A shadow covered Ning Ling's eyes, making it impossible to see her expression.

She said sullenly, "That is an Elite Four member. Even if he sends out a Professional-level Pokémon of the same level, whether it's vision, command ability, or training, it's not something we high school seniors can contend with."

Even she could see Su Hao's peerless talent, but talent needs time to accumulate before it can be realized as strength.

"Ho..."

Shen Lingyun let out a soft breath.

A moment later, he touched the Poké Ball of his Electivire and suddenly said, "You saw the interview news, right?"

Ning Ling turned her head in confusion and hesitated, "I did..."

Shen Lingyun said quietly, "Perhaps, the 【Ace】 he mentioned really can create a miracle?"

"Even if it's not Elite Four Li's ace, and doesn't even count as his third or fourth string. Perhaps he can also create a miracle as a high school student?"

Shen Lingyun remembered that the reason he and Elekid had accidentally entered a secret realm and met Raikou was because he had an inexplicable premonition.

It was a premonition of... dragons soaring and clouds rising!

And now, he had the same premonition!

Ning Ling looked at Shen Lingyun as if he were an alien. Had this person not recovered yet because his ultimate move was easily neutralized by Su Hao?

Su Hao could defeat an Elite Four member?

Absolutely impossible!

Under the gaze of many and the anticipation of the masses, the exhibition match officially began!

It was still Song Jian, flying on the iconic Aegislash of an Alliance referee. He smiled and announced, "Next, the champion of this University Cup, contestant Su Hao, will face the Fire-type Elite Four of the Shenzhou Alliance—Li, Luo, Yan!"

At the same time, the bright lights suddenly dimmed.

The Ho-Oh Arena suddenly turned off its lighting, and a commotion broke out in the spectator stands.

Suddenly, a spectator noticed an extra bright figure in the sky, pointed there, and exclaimed, "What is that in the sky!?"

Everyone looked in the direction of his finger.

They saw four cloud-shaped flames suddenly light up in mid-air, exceptionally bright and eye-catching.

"Roar—!"

Accompanied by this earth-shaking roar, a majestic aura spread out, causing everyone's bodies to sink.

Ning Ling's eyes widened, and she said in shock, "Elite Four-level aura!?"

Shen Lingyun next to her was even more shocked, his thin lips trembling as he said, "This similar roar, this close aura! I will never misidentify it!"

This was a different aura, similar to the Raikou that had once saved him but different in the details!

Soon, the answer was placed before everyone.

Like a volcanic eruption, a pillar of lava fire shot into the sky!

And under the illumination of that fire pillar, everyone clearly saw the true form of the Pokémon stepping on fire clouds with an aura of disdain for the world, as well as the two figures on its back.

That was... Su Hao, Li Luoyan, and the legendary Pokémon—Entei!

Su Hao stroked the warm orange-red fur beneath him, shocked in his heart.

He really didn't expect that Li Luoyan had actually captured the legendary Pokémon Entei, although it wasn't the one personally resurrected by Ho-Oh...
