Chapter 584: Swords like light, shining like diamonds

Listening to this segment written by AdAAS (LISA).

The moment Su Hao's words fell, Diancie also followed up with the next action.

A touch of pink light emerged from the center of Diancie's hands. As her hands pulled apart, the high-speed rotating gorgeous Diamond Storm emitted charming brilliance under the illumination of the light.

Small pink diamonds flowed as if they were naturally formed, following Diancie's forward pushing action, and the Diamond Storm kept approaching Gallade.

"Adjust posture, Sacred Sword!"

After a moment of confusion, Xu Qin gritted her teeth, knowing that if she didn't respond, it would really be over!

Covered in scars from the high-temperature light, the flying Gallade endured the severe pain, extended the blades between its elbows, and the sharp blades were inserted directly into the ground with Gallade's action.

Amidst the scattering smoke and dust, Gallade left two deep blade marks on the ground, which stopped its body from flying backward.

Stained with Fairy-type energy, but essentially still a Rock-type move, the Diamond Storm was about to strike.

"Gallade!"

There was no time for Gallade to regroup. It shouted and raised its arms, and the blades on its elbows extended again, turning into two energy Sacred Swords about one meter long.

Although the Sacred Sword was made of energy, Xu Qin was confident that its sharpness could help Gallade cut a path to survival in the Diamond Storm.

After all, Gallade's Sacred Sword couldn't even be blocked by the steel armor of Aggron, which was known for its defense.

Gallade skillfully danced the Sacred Sword, and the Sacred Sword pulled up orange-yellow blade lights with its dancing.

This handsome move caused a warm response outside the field.

Both men and women felt that Gallade, pulling the blade light at this time, was incredibly stylish.

The shining Diamond Storm struck, and Gallade swung a sword confidently. Its eyes had already seen the scene of these energy diamonds being split by the Sacred Sword.

"Clang, clang—"

A heavy clanging sound rang out, Gallade's confident expression stalled, and then it stared at everything in front of it with eyes about to crack.

The Sacred Sword was like Gallade's own arm, able to extend. At this time, Gallade clearly felt the resistance from the Sacred Sword on its arm. The sharp Sacred Sword couldn't advance an inch in front of these small diamonds!

Even if they were real diamonds, its Sacred Sword could cut them open, but what was going on with these small pink shining diamonds!?

Not being able to cut the diamonds in one strike meant that Gallade could only constantly adjust its posture and use the Sacred Swords on its elbows to bounce off the continuous Diamond Storm.

Once... twice... three times...

Heavy blocking sounds kept ringing inside the Diamond Storm, and from time to time, an orange-yellow blade light would light up inside.

Swords like light, shining like diamonds.

The small light finally annihilated in the even more shining light.

The "thump" of falling to the ground was particularly harsh, making the extremely nervous Xu Qin's pupils shrink.

When the Diamond Storm dissipated under Diancie's control, everyone clearly saw the situation on the ring at this moment.

Gallade was covered in scars burned by Dazzling Gleam, bruises hit by the Diamond Storm, and lay on the ground with swirl eyes, having clearly lost the ability to battle.

It formed a sharp contrast with Diancie on the other side of the field, who was still like a Pokémon that had done nothing after using Diamond Storm, without even panting.

Dead silence.

The students of Jiangcheng University's Battle Department all showed expressions of extreme shock.

Having not witnessed it in practice, they still held a question mark about the power of Su Hao and Diancie with a fluke mentality.

But the scene in front of them actually proved one point.

This former high school senior, who had only received his starter Pokémon for a little over half a year, not even a year, and was strictly speaking still a novice trainer, had an ace that was much stronger than the senior school team reserve!

"Geez, the newcomers now are all monsters."

Zhao Yunlan held the arm of the blue bald Pokémon and tightened it slightly, muttering to himself.

—

The crushing victory without any accidents left Xu Qin stunned in place, having fallen into a state of extreme confusion.

She had thought about not being able to beat Su Hao, but being solved by the other party's two easy moves was still...

It turned out that the exhibition match wasn't for the sake of creating a god and throwing the game; instead, Su Hao and Diancie were really scary strong.

"Just talking about the ace, he can already compete with those at the top of the pyramid in the University League..."

An absurd guess flashed through Xu Qin's heart.

"Are you okay?"

A cold voice sounded. At some point, Mu Yao was already standing behind Xu Qin.

Although Mu Yao was still expressionless, Xu Qin, who was in the same grade and knew her essence, could still feel the touch of concern.

Holding back tears, Xu Qin smiled bitterly and shook her head at Mu Yao, then looked at Su Hao and said: "I am convinced. You are an undisputed regular."

Then, without waiting for Su Hao's response, her hand trembled, she took out a Poké Ball to recall Gallade, and walked off the ring quickly.

Compared to whether she could be promoted to a regular player, what was urgent now was to take Gallade for treatment.

And, she only supported two moves under Su Hao, who was nominally in the second half of his freshman year but actually in his senior year of high school. It would be strange if she could be selected.

Mu Yao watched Xu Qin, who was walking fast, go off the field, and said to Su Hao without looking back: "You are even stronger than I imagined."

The second opponent was a senior named Li Siqian, and the Pokémon sent out was a relatively rare Ground+Ghost-type Pokémon—Golurk.

A Pokémon with this attribute configuration was very rare, and Golurk was also a relatively special type among Ground-types.

It could fly.

A mud giant about 2.8 meters tall in the air retracted its arms and legs, spraying high-pressure gas from the three holes it revealed. This was how Golurk achieved flight in the air.

"Golurk, Gyro Ball!"

As soon as he came up, Li Siqian seized the opportunity to use the Steel-type move that restrained Diancie to find a breakthrough.

Golurk stopped the gas sprayed from its arms, extended its fists, which were several times larger than sandbags, and rotated at high speed with itself as the center.

Su Hao was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Li Siqian to use Gyro Ball to hit Diancie.

Because, according to the damage calculation formula of Gyro Ball, Diancie, who was actually slower than Golurk, couldn't trigger the mechanism of Gyro Ball where the slower the enemy, the higher the damage.

No matter how confused he was, it didn't hinder him from giving instructions.

Su Hao said loudly: "Flash Cannon!"
