Chapter 81

He possesses a pair of magnificent blood-colored wings, truly living up to his other name, Salamence!

His thick, powerful tail is sweeping back and forth.

His entire body is deep blue. The inner sides of his head, neck, limbs, and tail are all blood-red.

His lower jaw and abdomen are covered by three shell-like plates.

These are the very shells that formed during his time as a Shelgon!

Not only do they strengthen his defense and serve as his armor, but they also add a touch of dominance to his appearance!

Above his eyes are two blood-red ridges, and there are three small triangular wings on each side of his head.

His limbs are equipped with sharp claws that glint with a cold light under the sun!

"Salamence!!"

Salamence has successfully evolved and is roaring in the sky!!

The sound waves ripple out, reaching the ears of everyone in the audience.

Afterward, he excitedly flies around the arena in the sky.

He seems incredibly satisfied with his own wings.

"You finally evolved, Salamence!"

Su Yu watches Salamence flapping its wings in the sky with a look of gratification.

After months of accumulation, he has thoroughly absorbed the power of the Dragon Fang and evolved into Salamence!

"Salamence!" Salamence looks back at Su Yu, a smile appearing on his imposing face.

He is also very happy.

In such a short time with the trainer before him, he successfully transformed from the weak Bagon he was at the start.

He has become an overlord capable of soaring freely through the sky—Salamence!

He is extremely satisfied with this!

At this moment, Salamence's stat panel is incredibly luxurious!

He is truly worthy of being a Salamence with Champion potential!

He Sheng, on the opposite side, sees that Su Yu has actually sent out a pseudo-legendary Pokémon.

His expression instantly darkens, becoming incredibly ugly.

He never expected Su Yu to have a pseudo-legendary Pokémon! And it's a pseudo-legendary in its final form at that!

As everyone knows, pseudo-legendary Pokémon aren't much before they evolve, but after evolving, they can unleash their full power, leaving ordinary Pokémon far behind.

"Damn it, damn it, damn it!! How could you possibly have a pseudo-legendary Pokémon!!"

He Sheng roars in anger.

He has dreamed of owning such a Pokémon, and for that, he explored almost every place during military training!!

Yet he still didn't have one!

The reason pseudo-legendaries are called pseudo-legendaries is precisely because they are incredibly rare.

How can someone else have a Pokémon that he, He Sheng, doesn't have!?

He is the protagonist of this world!

He Sheng is suddenly enraged, "Gyarados, use Water Gun to knock him down!"

He Sheng issues the order instantly, and Gyarados glares at the Salamence in the sky, opening its bloodthirsty maw.

"Pfft!!" A stream of water shoots toward Salamence.

However, facing Gyarados's Water Gun, Salamence is too lazy to even dodge.

The Water Gun hits Salamence's abdomen and is completely blocked by the hard, shell-like armor.

After taking the Water Gun hit, Salamence even shakes his head and lets out a comfortable hum.

It seems this Water Gun was just like giving him a bath.

The damage is minimal, but the insult is extreme!

How could a level 20-something Gyarados possibly hurt a level 40 Salamence?

The audience in the stands sees this scene and bursts into laughter.

"Haha, Gyarados's Water Gun looks like a toy; Salamence is too lazy to even dodge."

"Yeah, Salamence even hummed twice, looking very comfortable; he probably hasn't had a bath in a long time."

"Ah, is Gyarados really this weak? Nothing happened when it hit Salamence."

"It's not that Gyarados is too weak, but that Salamence is too strong. I estimate that many seniors in their fourth year wouldn't necessarily be a match for Su Yu's Salamence."

"Hiss... Really? Is he that strong?"

"Don't you know that once a pseudo-legendary evolves into its final form, it has at least Gym-level strength.

As long as it develops for a little while, it can directly reach Elite-level strength!"

"This... what's the point of fighting? I thought it would be an exciting battle, but it's a one-sided slaughter."

He Sheng, on the field, hears the laughter from the audience and finds the sounds piercing.

His face is twisted, and a large tic-tac-toe symbol appears on his forehead!

"I don't believe it! I absolutely don't believe it! Gyarados, use Dragon Pulse!"

He Sheng grips the railing in front of him and yells.

"Roar!" Gyarados nods, tilts its head up, and begins to gather energy.

A dark purple energy ball, one meter in diameter, gradually condenses near its mouth.

"Salamence, let's use Dragon Pulse too!"

Su Yu orders softly.

"Salamence!" Salamence flaps his blood-colored wings, and an identical energy pulse gathers in front of him.

A huge, deep purple energy ball, three meters in diameter, appears!

Although both are Dragon Pulse, whether it's the purity of the color or the diameter of the energy ball,

Salamence's completely crushes Gyarados's!

"Whoosh!"

Salamence and Gyarados fire the energy balls from their mouths simultaneously!

But the audience outside the field knows who the winner is just by looking at the shape of the Dragon Pulse.

"Pfft!"

The energy balls collide, but there is no earth-shattering explosion!

Salamence's Dragon Pulse is like a big fish, directly devouring Gyarados's Dragon Pulse.

Afterward, the deep purple energy ball smashes toward Gyarados.

"Boom!!"

The Dragon Pulse hits Gyarados hard!

A single blow knocks it down into the river.

The waves in the river arena are kicked up to a height of one or two meters.

It looks terrifyingly powerful!

When everything calms down, Gyarados lies in the river, covered in wounds.

Although it hasn't lost its ability to battle yet, it has already sustained heavy damage!

This is, of course, the result of Salamence holding back!

Su Yu hinted for him not to use his full strength, which is why this blow didn't instantly kill Gyarados.

The purpose of leaving Gyarados standing is that he wants to see He Sheng's choice!

If He Sheng continues to let the heavily injured Gyarados fight, then he will mercilessly destroy Gyarados!
