Chapter 193
He had long suspected that Bu Bu Step Miao Zhu was definitely not this simple!
Sure enough, Bu Bu Step Miao Zhu, just like him, had a Mega Evolution Stone as a safety net.
But he did not understand why Bu Bu Step Miao Zhu had revealed it so early!
Shouldn't this be kept as a trump card?
However, after conversing with Su Yu,
Bu Bu Step Miao Zhu became clear.
Her trump card was something Su Yu actually possessed as well.
There was absolutely no need to hide it.
If they encountered Wang Wang Shizhong later, she would definitely have to reveal it anyway.
Therefore, rather than continuing to conceal it, it was better to bring it out directly.
Bu Bu Step Miao Zhu looked at her Mega Garchomp and revealed a satisfied expression.
She pondered in her heart: With a Garchomp like this, I wonder if it can defeat Su Yu?
A huge question mark formed in her mind.
However, she felt she was still very likely to lose.
Because the pressure Su Yu exerted on her was too great.
Bu Bu Step Miao Zhu shook her head, casting these thoughts aside.
What she needed to focus on now was the situation on the competition field!
After Mega Evolving,
Garchomp's Ability would change.
It shifted from the original Sand Veil to the current Sand Force!
Sand Force: During a sandstorm, the power of Rock-type, Ground-type, and Steel-type moves increases.
That's right; as long as it was a sandstorm, for Garchomp, it meant an all-around amplification!
This amplification was extremely terrifying.
Therefore, the moment Bu Bu Step Miao Zhu entered the field, she commanded,
"Garchomp, summon a sandstorm immediately!"
"Lusha!"
With a roar, Garchomp instantly unleashed the power within its body.
In an instant, a massive sandstorm erupted across the entire competition field!
And this sandstorm, numbered 193, immediately engulfed both Pokémon.
Seeing this, Gu Zhun sensed danger and hurriedly ordered his Walrein to counterattack.
Thus, the prologue of this match was drawn!
However, in this match, Garchomp held a massive advantage.
It must be known that after Garchomp evolved, its Attack base stat changed dramatically,
reaching the terrifying value of 170 points!
This nearly surpassed most other Pokémon.
With the blessing of the sandstorm weather, her moves became even more terrifying!
Therefore, this match was almost a one-sided affair.
Facing Bu Bu Step Miao Zhu's Garchomp,
Gu Zhun had absolutely no way to deal with it.
And in this match, relying on her Mega Garchomp, Bu Bu Step Miao Zhu achieved the feat of defeating four opponents in a row!
Just like Su Yu before her, she completely crushed her opponents.
After the victory, Bu Bu Step Miao Zhu stood in the contestant area, her pure white long dress fluttering.
Set against the terrifying sand dust in the arena, her flowing sleeves made her look like a fairy from the heavens.
Bu Bu Step Miao Zhu's temperament, akin to an ice mountain snow lotus, won the cheers of many spectators.
After winning, Bu Bu Step Miao Zhu recalled her Pokémon and returned to the contestant room.
"Well done; your strength is very impressive."
Once Bu Bu Step Miao Zhu returned, Su Yu immediately praised her.
"Thank you for the compliment. You must also do your best next."
Bu Bu Step Miao Zhu also smiled lightly in response.
This single smile nearly straightened the eyes of many people.
Everyone looked at Su Yu with envy.
Since when had his relationship with Bu Bu Step Miao Zhu become so good!?
Amidst the crowd's puzzled and envious gazes, Su Yu headed toward the competition field.
Next was his match!
In this match, to the disappointment of all spectators,
Su Yu simply sent out his Blaziken and Salamence as usual.
Relying on the powerful strength of his Pokémon, he defeated his opponent.
The prologue of the Mega Evolution battles, which he had originally initiated,
was instead the first to be halted by Su Yu himself.
Facing Liang Liang Yuan Xin from Modu University, Su Yu merely used ordinary strength to crush him, eliminating him from the tournament.
Liang Liang Yuan Xin raised no objection to this outcome.
When it was Su Yu's turn to be drawn, he had already anticipated this result.
Thus, he calmly accepted his defeat.
And so, under such circumstances,
the quarterfinals drew to a close.
Next came the semifinals, eagerly awaited by all!
The four finalists were Su Yu from Tianyun University,
Bu Bu Step Miao Zhu from Jingdu University,
Wang Wang Shizhong from Modu University,
and Chen Chen Yexuan from Nanzhe University.
Of these four, three already enjoyed considerable fame.
This time, those three would finally face each other!
No matter how the bracket was arranged, two of them
would inevitably clash!
143: Su Yu versus Wang Wang Shizhong—Wang Wang Shizhong's chances of victory!!
At this moment, the most unfortunate was Chen Chen Yexuan of Nanzhe University.
Among these three,
there was not one he dared to provoke.
His presence here seemed merely to hand them easy points!
This left Chen Chen Yexuan feeling rather disheartened.
After all, he too had reached the top four in the University Spirit League.
Yet compared to the other three, he was nothing more than an experience booster!
Probably no one was in a more pitiable situation than him.
Under the gaze of everyone, the scheduling for the semifinals began!
When the results were announced, Chen Chen Yexuan stared at the bracket on the screen,
unsure whether to feel relief or sorrow.
The opponent he least wanted to face was Su Yu!
Fortunately, this time, he had not been matched against Su Yu.
The bad news is that he has encountered Bu Bu Step Miao Zhu!
That's right; this round's schedule pits Bu Bu Step Miao Zhu against Chen Chen Yexuan.
Wang Wang Shizhong versus Su Yu!
In an instant, the entire Fengchao Stadium erupted in excitement!
This was because Su Yu had previously defeated Liang Liang Yuan Xin from Modu University.
Meanwhile, Wang Wang Shizhong had defeated Chen Luo from Tianyun University.
One could say this match would determine who could avenge their companion.
It was simply a showdown of grudges!
Upon seeing this matching result, Wang Wang Shizhong remained calm beneath his rugged features.
He had already prepared himself to battle Su Yu.
Seeing this result, Bu Bu Step Miao Zhu was not surprised either.
Regardless of which of them won, she would fight with all her might!
Many principals on the high platforms also turned their attention to this upcoming battle.
This was truly a clash between powerhouses!
Its brilliance was in no way inferior to the previous match between Wang Wang Shizhong and Chen Luo!
Seeing this result, Su Yu smiled slightly.
No matter who his opponent was, he would not lose!
Once the schedule was arranged, the matches began immediately with decisive speed.
Su Yu and Wang Wang Shizhong were scheduled for the first match.
Thus, very quickly, everyone's gaze focused on this contest.
Su Yu and Wang Wang Shizhong stepped into the center of the arena.
"You are strong, but I will defeat you nonetheless!"
Wang Wang Shizhong declared solemnly, his resolve unshakable.
The corner of Su Yu's mouth curled into a smile. "Then I look forward to your performance. After all, I am determined to claim the championship!"
On the high platform, many principals began discussing fervently.
"Who do you all think will win?" the principal of Nankai University asked first.
"I believe it will definitely be Su Yu. His Mega Blaziken holds a clear advantage over Mega Metagross in terms of strength."
"Moreover, he also has a Salamence, so Su Yu will certainly win," the principal of Harbin Institute of Technology stated directly.
His words echoed the sentiments of everyone present.
After all, Su Yu's previous displays with Mega Blaziken and Salamence had left an incredibly deep impression!
Many people felt that this battle already belonged to Su Yu.
"Wang Wang Shizhong still has a hope of victory!"
At this moment, Liang Liang Wensheng, the principal of Modu University, spoke up.
His words immediately drew the attention of many.
Liang Liang Wensheng then slowly explained.
"You have overlooked a critical factor: the battlefield itself!"
"If it is a Water Field, then Wang Wang Shizhong might emerge victorious."
Hearing this, many principals suddenly realized the truth.
Indeed, if it were a Water Field, Wang Wang Shizhong would truly have a chance of winning.
First, his Metagross could fly, so the Water Field would have little effect on it.
Meanwhile, Su Yu's Blaziken would suffer a severe reduction in performance on a Water Field!
Being a Fire-type Pokémon, its movements on a Water Field would undoubtedly be severely restricted.
Even if Su Yu used Milotic to freeze the field, the result would be the same.
Because Blaziken's high body temperature would melt the ice, it would have no effect whatsoever.
Under such circumstances, Su Yu's remaining Pokémon would only be Salamence and Milotic.
Facing Su Yu's Salamence, Wang Wang Shizhong could simply counter with his Mega Metagross.
As for the remaining Milotic, Wang Wang Shizhong still had a level 53 Swampert in reserve.
Therefore, he could handle it, and his chances of winning were quite significant.
Put this way, drawing a Water Field would indeed greatly restrict Su Yu's strength!
However, upon hearing this, Ye Ye Lingzhi in the center merely chuckled softly.
She did not believe that a mere battlefield could affect Su Yu's performance.
A genius like Su Yu had surely calculated every variable in advance.
He would not allow himself even the slightest flaw!
Therefore, Ye Ye Lingzhi believed that even if the field drawn was a Water Field, victory would still belong to Su Yu.
"I just wonder in what manner you will secure your victory," Ye Ye Lingzhi thought curiously, crossing her long legs clad in black stockings.
Therefore, Ye Ye Lingzhi believed that even if the arena drawn was the Water Arena, Su Yu would still be the victor.
The selection of the battlefield began immediately.
Ye Lingzhe crossed her long legs clad in black silk stockings, wondering curiously in her heart.
……
The selection of the venue began in an instant.
This result could very well determine the outcome of the match.
Therefore, many people were paying close attention.
Meanwhile, Wang Wang Shizhong stared fixedly at the large screen.
Just as the principal of Modu University had said.
He did have a chance of winning!
As long as it became the Water Terrain!
At this moment, Wang Wang Shizhong silently prayed in his heart.
As long as it was the Water Terrain, he would be victorious!!
His fate rested on this very moment.
Meanwhile, Su Yu watched the screen as it randomized the terrain.
Not a single muscle on his face twitched.
He glanced at Wang Wang Shizhong opposite him and noticed the man seemed extremely tense.
He appeared to be eagerly anticipating the result of the terrain selection.
Su Yu thought for a brief moment and immediately understood.
"So he has pinned his fate on the terrain selection?"
Su Yu thought to himself.
"However, even if it is the Water Terrain, I will still be the one to win! No matter what the terrain is, I will claim ultimate victory."
Su Yu thought with confidence.
He would never entrust his fate to such luck.
This was precisely the difference between him and everyone else!
Everything he did served as a foundation for his ascent to the peak.
And along this journey, no circumstance could hinder his progress!
At this moment, the selection of the competition terrain was finally revealed.
Wang Wang Shizhong held his breath, staring intently at the screen.
It was the Water Terrain!!
"It's over; it's actually the Water Terrain. Won't Su Yu's Blaziken be restricted?"
"Exactly! I was hoping for the Rock Terrain to see Su Yu's Mega Blaziken battle the Mega Metagross! How did it end up being the Water Terrain!"
"Now it feels like Wang Wang Shizhong has a higher chance of winning! Su Yu's Milotic doesn't seem to match Wang Wang Shizhong's Swampert in level."
"Indeed, the outcome is now uncertain! Who would have expected the random selection to land on the Water Terrain!"
Upon seeing the result of the terrain, the audience began discussing it fervently.
