Chapter 133

He hadn't expected the Salamence's attack to come so swiftly.

The moment he let his guard down, the strike arrived immediately.

"Tch!" Lin Lin Guangxiang spat, staring fixedly at the Venusaur.

By now, scars had appeared all over the Venusaur's body.

Though the injuries were not severe, they had already impaired its movement somewhat.

If this continued, the situation would turn unfavorable for him.

At this moment, Lin Lin Guangxiang glanced at the Haxorus beside him; having suffered no attacks, it remained asleep.

The barrage of attacks in the arena had failed to rouse it.

Lin Lin Guangxiang also knew he could not rely on his ally.

Thus, he decided to unleash his ultimate move!

"Venusaur, use Power Whip!"

[Power Whip: Violently swinging vines or tentacles to slam and attack the opponent.]

"Bana!"

From the flower on the Venusaur's back, numerous giant vines erupted once more!

These vines were even thicker and more powerful than before.

When whipped through the air, they even produced a sonic boom.

The vines tangled together as they lashed toward the Salamence soaring in the sky.

Facing these giant vines, the Salamence flapped its wings, constantly dodging.

Although the vines attacked swiftly, they struggled to hit the agile Salamence high in the sky.

After dodging for a while, the Salamence climbed even higher.

"Now, use Dragon Rush!"

The Salamence spun three hundred and sixty degrees in mid-air and reversed its direction.

Its gaze locked firmly onto the Venusaur below.

Flapping its wings, the Salamence plunged downward with fierce speed!

In an instant, intense energy ignited across its body.

Its form became enveloped in blue energy.

Its sky-blue head transformed into a draconic head made of pure energy!

Facing the charging Salamence, the Venusaur swung its massive vines once again.

"Crack! Crack!"

The vines struck the gliding Salamence.

Yet the Salamence remained utterly unmoved, continuing its full-speed descent!

The Venusaur tried to use its vines to block the Salamence's charge.

It positioned the vines before itself, weaving a giant green net.

It intended to capture the Salamence just like trapping a bird.

However, by now, the momentum of the Salamence's Dragon Rush was unstoppable!

Its speed and energy had reached their peak.

This giant net might catch a bird, but it could not capture a dragon!

105: One Against Two! Lin Lin Guangxiang's Doubts!

"Hiss!"

The Salamence crashed directly into the giant green vine net.

In an instant, the net began to bulge inward continuously.

The Salamence poured on full power, continuing its charge.

"Rip!" All the vines snapped off at their roots!

Unchecked in its momentum, the Salamence, wreathed in blue flames, resembled a dragon descending from heaven; it opened its maw wide and swallowed the Venusaur in one bite.

"Boom!"

With a deafening roar, the Salamence struck the Venusaur directly.

The Venusaur's limbs collapsed as the Salamence crushed it downward.

Instantly, a crater formed in the ground.

The Venusaur now lay sprawled face-down within that crater.

Its body was covered in wounds.

The once-lush bud on its back had now lost all color.

"Venusaur! Get up!" Lin Lin Guangxiang watched the scene in the arena in disbelief.

His ace, the Venusaur, had actually been beaten so badly!?

Watching the Salamence rise immediately after striking the Venusaur, Lin Lin Guangxiang felt nothing but helplessness.

His Venusaur had been completely overwhelmed by the Salamence in every aspect!

How could he accept this!

A person two years younger than himself, and he was no match for her!?

He still remembered the sight of his father scolding him when he returned home after failing to gain King King Hongwu's approval.

Since that moment, he had resolved to strive harder, aiming to win the National University Competition championship to prove himself.

Yet, merely within a training camp, he had been beaten so badly by King King Hongwu's successor that he could not even lift his head!

Lin Lin Guangxiang clenched his teeth, his right fist gripped so tightly that...

...his fingernails nearly dug into his flesh!

His eyes were bloodshot as he glared at Liang Liang Liang Yuan beside him.

"How much longer are you going to just watch!? Do you really think you can defeat him?" Lin Lin Guangxiang shouted.

Liang Liang Liang Yuan looked helpless. "I intended to ambush him when he was off guard, but he pulled back in an instant. My Haxorus can't do anything about it."

Ever since the hypnotic powder earlier, he had been waiting for an opportunity to strike.

Just moments ago, when the Salamence used Dragon Rush, he had prepared to launch a surprise attack.

However, Su Yu had been keeping a close watch on the third person in the arena, so he would never allow the Salamence to remain on the ground for too long.

Although Haxorus possessed immense attacking power, it was helpless against a Pokémon like Salamence that could fly in the sky!

Lin Lin Guangxiang snorted lightly. "Hurry up and hold him off. I'll have my Venusaur use Synthesis to recover some stamina; otherwise, we'll both be defeated!"

Hearing this, Liang Liang Liang Yuan nodded. He too realized the situation was turning against them.

If Lin Lin Guangxiang fell, his Haxorus, which could barely touch the Salamence, would stand no chance against it!

Therefore, Liang Liang Liang Yuan also prepared to cover the Venusaur while it recovered.

Once Lin Lin Guangxiang regained his strength, they would attack together.

At this moment, Lin Lin Guangxiang sneered coldly. "So just wait to face our combined attack!"

Seeing this, Su Yu shook his head. "Why do you think I'd give you that chance!"

"Salamence, use Draco Meteor!!"

[Draco Meteor: Meteors fall from the sky onto the opponent. After use, the user's Special Attack drops sharply due to recoil.]

"Sala!"

A sphere of golden-yellow energy condensed in the Salamence's mouth.

It tilted its head back and spat the energy sphere straight up into the sky!

Immediately afterward, a thunderous roar echoed through the heavens.

Along with it came the sound of the very air trembling!

At its highest point, the energy sphere instantly exploded and scattered.

It transformed into dozens of meteor-like objects.

Then, they streaked down from the sky.

As they plummeted, the meteors even ignited with trails of fire!

Countless meteors rushed directly toward the Venusaur and Haxorus below!
