Chapter 221
Comprehending the laws is not merely about strengthening skill power, but a comprehensive enhancement, including all aspects of physical constitution; the rise in strength spans more than one tier.
Student Yun Ying's face darkened; a Lucario such a Pokémon is not easy to deal with!
But there is no fear; he gained three extra years of training time, the opponent is at most at the Elite Peak strength, and Flying type counters Fighting type.
Lucario is absolutely no match for Altaria!
"The match begins!"
Bai Jing crossed his arms, speaking calmly: "Lucario, handle this battle yourself; I will not command. I believe in you!"
Student Yun Ying's expression changed, and he shouted angrily: "How dare you insult me like this!"
"What you say, do I have any fault in believing in my own Pokémon? If it cannot defeat an opponent like you, how can I sweep away all enemies in Dragon Capital and bring back glory?"
It was arrogance! And also confidence!
"You..."
"I will smash that arrogant face of yours into the dust and make you a complete joke!"
"Altaria, use Cotton Guard!"
Altaria, flying in the air, flapped its wings, dropping clumps of cotton.
Cotton Guard is a skill that lowers attack; Altaria's feathers are made of cotton and possess stickiness; if entangled, mobility will be greatly reduced.
But Lucario's response shocked everyone!
It was seen constantly shifting position, each time brushing past the cotton, precisely dodging every clump of feathers.
"What amazing prediction ability!"
Not only that, while dodging, a Aura Sphere was flung out by Lucario.
Unlike other Lucario, it used one hand, and flung it casually, relaxed and effortless.
Student Yun Ying was greatly startled: "Use Cotton Guard to defend!"
An Aura Sphere cannot be dodged because it possesses a built-in tracking function.
The Aura Sphere struck the soft cotton; just as everyone thought it would be blocked, Altaria was blasted high into the sky.
Student Yun Ying's face changed again; what a powerful Aura Sphere!
Damn, this Lucario's strength is far greater than I imagined!
It wasn't over yet; Lucario flung out two more Aura Spheres, one left and one right, chasing the Altaria in the sky.
"Long Zhi Wave, shatter them!"
Altaria spat out a mouthful of dragon fire, but the Aura Spheres, as if possessing their own consciousness, curved around and dodged, striking Altaria from front and back!
"Altaria!"
Two heavy blows Altaria could not withstand, falling from the sky like a kite with a broken string.
Everyone was greatly surprised; they did not expect that just as the battle began, Student Yun Ying fell into a completely inferior position, beaten with no chance to fight back!
"Damn! I don't believe it!"
Student Yun Ying pulled out a necklace from his neck, on which hung a special bead.
"This is a Mega Stone; he wants to Mega Evolve!"
As expected!
"Altaria, Mega Evolve!"
The light of Mega Evolution wrapped Altaria; after the light dispersed, its appearance had changed drastically, and it stabilized its form in the air!
Its whole body was wrapped in special feathers glowing like pearls; the increase in feathers strengthened protection for the body; this is Mega Altaria!
Its realm remained unchanged after Mega Evolution, but its strength received a massive boost!
"Let one blow decide the victory!"
"Sky Attack!"
Surging energy poured out from Mega Altaria, forming a giant energy bird on its surface; after a cry, it charged down at the Lucario below, carrying massive impact!
Even facing such a Flying-type ultimate move, Bai Jing still maintained a relaxed demeanor, showing not the slightest intention to command!
Gazing at the giant bird attacking from the sky, Lucario's expression finally became serious!
It was seen its legs slightly apart in a horse stance, while both hands clasped together at the waist; massive energy began to gather...
"This is... the posture for using an Aura Sphere?"
"It wants to use an Aura Sphere to counter Sky Attack?"
"Will it work?"
Bai Jing's lips curved; of course it will work, because it is my Bai Jing's Lucario, a Lucario with extraordinary talent in Aura power!
"Go! Let him see what true Aura is!"
Lucario's hands suddenly pushed upward; a column of energy erupted, colliding with the giant energy bird!
Everyone was stunned!
"What the hell is this Aura Sphere?"
"It is clearly an Aura Cannon!"
"No, it should be an Aura Shockwave!"
Bai Jing shouted loudly: "You are all wrong; this is the Dog Style Kamehameha!"
Everyone had black lines on their foreheads; was the one fighting down below named Lucarote?
Whether Turtle Style or Dog Style, whether cannon or shockwave, everyone knew only that this attack was extremely powerful!
The shockwave, with a force that crushes withered grass, shattered the giant energy bird, then struck Mega Altaria, completely engulfing it in light!
"Altaria!"
That cry of shock Student Yun Ying shouted was so heart-wrenching!
The shockwave shattered the arena's energy barrier before vanishing into the sky!
"Holy crap! That's way too violent!"
"1.6 This barrier was specially prepared for quasi-Champion-level matches—an attack without near-Champion-level power couldn't possibly shatter it!"
"Does that mean Lucario already has strength close to Champion level?"
"No way? How long has Bai-ge been training? Could it have been raised ahead of schedule?"
"No way—didn't they say he didn't raise his Pokémon in advance?"
The crowd was still marveling at Lucario's strength when Student Yun Ying's shriek rang out!
"Where's my Swellow?! Where did you send it?!"
Only then did everyone snap awake, realizing that whether on the field or in the air, Swellow's figure was nowhere to be seen!
"Where did it go?"
"It couldn't have been blasted into bits, could it?"
"No way, no way—killing an opponent's Pokémon during a match is a serious taboo!"
"Something big is about to happen!"
"Bai-ge, he…"
At this, even the teachers were standing up one after another—the situation seemed to be getting serious!
