Chapter 39: Attack like fire, advance to the finals
Chapter 39 The offensive is like fire, advancing to the finals (240, please order first!)
After bidding farewell to Woolley, Filio went to Erliu Restaurant again with two eager little guys, preparing to participate in the finals of the Prism Cup.
Compared with the popularity of the main event, the huge crowds during the group stage competition were only a small deal.
After a night and a morning of fermentation, many Miare locals and tourists now know that this was originally a welfare event for Miare's own local trainers. This time, a master of Sara came, and he became a
The favorite to win the championship.
In this way, if one person spreads the word to ten, then the audience will become larger.
The number of locals and tourists increased at the same time, and there was already a lot of traffic on this main road. Tourists who did not know about this at first also gathered one after another due to the publicity effect of the scene, winning considerable publicity for Erliu Restaurant
Effect.
------------------
"Hey, there are so many people, I thought I came early."
"Marge!"
Walking all the way with the little dream monster on his back, Philio found that there were so many people today that the road was almost blocked.
With his super power revealed, he noticed that deep in the crowd, seven other people had arrived. Six were students from Miare Academy, and one was an advanced class student from another trainer school in Miare City.
In the huge Miare, there are eight trainer schools with advanced classes, but almost all of the outstanding students are concentrated in Miare Academy, and only a few remain in the other seven schools.
What separated him from the other players was a huge crowd that was several times larger than yesterday.
Fortunately, as a player, Philio has someone to guide him, otherwise it would have taken a lot of effort to get close to the venue.
"Filio-san did come quite early, but today the popularity is particularly high."
The person responsible for guiding Filio is Natalie, the waitress at Erliu Restaurant, who is also a very capable trainer herself.
Working at Erliu Restaurant is, on the one hand, to obtain free training resources provided by the restaurant and to save funds for future travel, and on the other hand, it is also to have a training place where high-level battles can be conducted for free.
She, who was not from Miare either, couldn't help but feel a little fond of Filio when she saw him making a big splash yesterday, and took the initiative to chat with Filio.
Filio looked around with a little surprise and said: "It seems that the battle atmosphere in Miare is relatively strong? I originally thought that people here love art and technology more, but they would not pay so much attention to battle."
"It's not very lively on weekdays, but it's more lively during tournaments and regional conferences. It's so lively today thanks to you. The boss is probably grinning from ear to ear. Okay, here we are, please register.
Gym leader Citron from Miare Gym will also be here today."
After sending Filio to the registration office with a smile, Natalie did not forget to wave goodbye gently and retreated into the distance.
------------------
"Sean, Doris, Hideki, Rosalyn, have you all seen yesterday's analysis report?"
In the "phalanx" composed of nearly a hundred Miare College students, the duel teacher Latoni asked softly a few of her proud disciples behind her, the four main members of the Miare College representative team.
Except for Walter, who went out for special training after losing the Miare Conference, all the main members who will participate in the championship this year have already arrived.
The lineup has been basically determined at this point, and the gap between the remaining students and these four is still relatively obvious.
"I've seen it, Teacher Latoni."
After hearing the coach's question, the four students spoke in unison.
"Sean, Hideki, he is the last one to be drawn, and his position has been decided a long time ago. It is very likely that you two will play against him. Do you have any thoughts? Let's talk about it."
Looking at the grouping list in her hand, Latoni pointed at the two students.
College chief Sean took the lead in stating: "Teacher, I will try my best to win."
"Me too, teacher. I will try to prevent him from touching Sean."
Hideki Kazama, who was born in the Kanto region, said carelessly, patting his chest.
The four members of Miare Academy, except for the second-placed Doris who is not participating, all seem to have the same straightforward temperament. They are good at fire-type Pokémon. Not only do they advocate offense on the field, but they also have similar temperaments and congenial spirits off the field.
"Then leave it to you. But remember, intelligence is the main thing, and the more important thing is still behind. This is just a one-on-one battle of spirits, and there are countless things to do. Your advantage lies in the team scientifically trained by the academy and each other.
There is a tacit understanding between us. However, I believe that you can win even if it is just a contest like this."
Latoni nodded with satisfaction and mentioned her students again.
Today's battle will be a preview of the championship, not only a battle between individual opponents, but also a preview of the team competition.
------------------
With the arrival of Philio, the registration of the battle, and the grouping officially ended.
Philio's lottery number is No. 7, and he played in the second group of the first round.
The opponent who advanced from eight to four was a student named Daniel from Miare College.
During the arena competition, he used a reasonably powerful Steel Cannon Arm and two Pokémon that were not fully developed. They were not threatening opponents.
If little Ibrahimovic hadn't fully recovered from his minor internal injury yesterday, he could have gone out to practice his hands.
It's a pity that it, which insisted on showing off its strength yesterday, can only sit on the sidelines and cheer for the little dream monster.
In the first battle, yesterday's loser Rosalin simply defeated another student from Miare College in just two or three minutes.
Then it was Filio and Daniel's turn.
Before taking the stage, Latoni called him to her side, gave him instructions, and gave instructions to delay with all her strength and try to test out part of Filio's strength, intending to prepare for the championship in less than two months.
The top student at Miare College nodded with a heavy face, knowing that he had no chance of winning the prize, but he still had to put in the school's perspective and work hard.

"Contestant No. 2 Daniel, versus Contestant No. 7 Filio, the battle begins!"
Natalie waved the command flag, and both parties threw the elf balls at the same time.
"Leave it to you, Steel Cannon Arm Shrimp, Wave of Evil!"
"Go, little dream monster, shadow ball!"
Daniel's tactics were very conservative, and he kept the Poké Ball beside him, at the very back of the battlefield.
At this moment, it is no longer an arena match. There is no so-called elimination rule. There are solid energy barriers in all directions.
The purple-black spiral beam shoots at the dream demon from a distance. Both in terms of speed and scale, it is remarkable. It has obviously been trained by a professional system.
However, opposite it is the little dream monster that Philio has devoted countless efforts to cultivate.
The shadow ball the size of a basketball condensed in mid-air, and the immeasurable ghost energy turned it into a sphere comparable to a mini black hole, which is deep, mysterious, and full of danger.
"What the hell is this?! Is it really a shadow ball?!"
In the audience, Rosalin exclaimed.
"It's very condensed, this shadow ball."
Citron, who was sitting at the judges' table, was also more interested, and looked at Filio with a bit of appreciation in his eyes.
"Marge!——"
Amid the screams of the dream demon, the shadow ball with all its strength carried an unstoppable momentum and charged forward against the waves of evil.
"Boom——"
A blow that destroys dryness and decay.
The incoming beam of light seemed to not exist at all and could not have the slightest impact on the shadow ball.
The Steel Cannon Arm Shrimp tried its best, but still could not escape the fate of being defeated head-on.
Most of the energy of the shadow ball that exploded on the body rushed high into the sky, and a small firework exploded in mid-air.
"The Steel Cannon Arm Shrimp has lost its fighting ability. The winner is the Dream Demon! Contestant No. 7, Philio from Salo Academy, wins!"
From the start of the fight to the referee announcing the end of the fight, it only takes about ten seconds.
Natalie, who serves as temporary referee, hasn't even returned to her original position.
"Thank you for showing mercy."
Daniel stepped forward very wisely and thanked Filio and Dream Demon for staying with them.
"It's just a discussion, safety first."
Philio said politely, then turned and left.
"...Buyi!"
Even among the cheers and applause, little Ibrahimovic's voice stood out.
Hearing the call of his friend, the little dream demon swooped back to Eevee, who was squatting in the waiting area, and gave him an affectionate high-five.
Although a level 30 Steel Cannon Arm Shrimp is nothing to it, in order to take care of little Eevee's mood, it still feels like it has won a huge victory.
"Well done. I have become more and more proficient in shadow ball practice during this period. I will continue to use energy cubes to accumulate ghost energy and strive to go further."
Philio, who walked back slowly, also stretched out his hand, touched the dream demon's little head affectionately, and gave an encouragement.
In the audience, Latoni frowned.
In her eyes, just as Rosalin said, the power of the shadow ball fired by Dream Demon today is very powerful. It can even be said that it is a little too powerful.
She was even more convinced that without targeted tactics, even the academy's chief Sean might not be able to cope with it just one-on-one.
Beside her, Sean and Hideki Kazama also looked solemn. Although they have several powerful Pokémon, they really don't have a partner that can play such a powerful one, even if it is an ace.
------------------
"Demon Fire Red Fox, it’s you who has decided! Magic Flame!"
Demon Fire Red Fox
Gender: Male
Attributes: fire, superpower
Characteristics: Magician
Energy accumulation: 40
Time flashed by, and in a blink of an eye it was the second game of four to two.
The second runner-up at Miare College, Doris, who came from a wealthy businessman family, did not participate in the battle. Chief Sean defeated Rosalin without any blood and entered the finals first.
The contest between Philio and Hideki Kazama was naturally given higher expectations.
As soon as the game started, Hideki Kazama sent out Fire Red Fox, a three-family fire Pokémon that had nothing to do with Kanto, where he was born, in an attempt to gain the upper hand.
The Demon Fire Red Fox waved his cane and drew an orange-red flame ring in front of himself.
Then orange-red flames shot out from his mouth, and the moment they passed through the ring, they shone and were endowed with strange energy.
"That's not how fast breaks work, Dream Demon, Shadow Ball."
Facing the menacing magical flames, Philio calmly gave the order.
"Marge!"
Looking at the rare and decent opponent, the little dream demon also became very excited. The purple-black energy ball, which was several sizes smaller than before, condensed instantly and shot out with a bang.
"Boom——"
The violent explosion triggered a tide of energy.
With one blow, the incoming flames were quickly annihilated, and half of the shadow ball exploded in front of the demon fire red fox, knocking it away and smashing to the ground.
Even if some power is sacrificed for speed, in a pure strength competition, the Demon Fire Red Fox is definitely no match for the Dream Demon.
"Dream Demon, electromagnetic waves, lock it."
In the smoke of the explosion, Filio's voice clearly reached Hideki Kazama's ears.
After suffering a loss in the confrontation but not losing his vitality, he decisively ordered: "Hold, retreat, distance yourself, and use the flame vortex!"
The green light curtain was propped up, and the demon fire red fox barely got up, fighting and retreating, and retreated to the rear with vigilance.
However, the electromagnetic waves that Hideki Kazama had been carefully guarding against did not appear until the smoke cleared.
Take a closer look, where is the shadow of the dream monster ahead?
"Be careful around here!"
Rosalin, who had suffered a loss, reminded her loudly, while Latoni, who had also been deceived, was also sweating.
"Demon fire red fox, flame vortex, protection!"
"Maho!"
After years of getting along with each other, Yaohuo Red Fox has full trust in his trainer and has mastered some unique tricks.
The vortex of flames gathered around him, not to attack, but to lock the blind spot of his sight to guard against the dream monster that might attack.
Once the target is discovered, the skills originally used for protection can be instantly turned into offensive skills, which can be said to be both offensive and defensive.

"That's right, but it's a pity that it's a step too late. Let's go! One step behind from the right!"
In the smoke of gunpowder, he used his stealth power to attack the dream demon who had hidden himself in a different space. Following Filio's order, he appeared behind the demon fire red fox.
The petite body pierced through the protection of the flames and accurately hit the soft waist of the demon fire red fox who was concentrating on guarding the surroundings.
No matter how strict the protection is, it is useless in front of Philio.
"Maho!"
The sudden attack caused the demon fire red fox to lose its balance in pain, and fell to the ground screaming.
The flame vortex formed by the condensed fire energy assisted by the superpower has also lost its original agility, and just floats in place dully, with the protective effect reduced to 70% from 10%.
"Quick Attack, Shadow Ball!"
"Marge!"
Although the distance was very close, the dream demon still gathered the shadow ball without fear and hit the wound of the demon fire red fox, trying to make the final decision.
"Demon fire red fox, mental shock, rear! Then hot wind!"
In the passive state, Hideki Kazama shouted orders, but Filio was not moved at all.
The dream demon continued to rush forward and was hit head-on by the mental shock.
"Bang"
The exploded avatar fragments brought back Hideki Kazama's sanity.
"Shadow Ball."
The energy fluctuations in the distance also made everyone realize the mobility of the Dream Demon again.
The purple-black ball of light drew a tricky line from far to near, and went straight to the fragile belly of the demon fire red fox.
After using the hot wind continuously, it was no longer able to dodge.
"Boom——"
A solid blow, another hit.
The demon fire red fox, which was already unable to stand up due to a waist injury, was blown up into the air by the dream demon's prepared blow.
The world is spinning so fast that even the location of the enemy is hard to find.
"Close! High-speed stars!"
Clenching his fists, Filio gave a loud order.
The star-shaped energy formed a beam and was accurately shot at the Demon Fire Red Fox, which was unable to resist during the dream demon's high-speed dash.
"Boom, boom, boom, boom"
The explosion resounded all over the demon fire red fox's body.
The slender body fell weakly and crashed into the side of the dream demon who had rushed directly below him.
The white light that appeared on the dream monster slowly faded away after confirming the enemy's defeat.
"The demon fire red fox has lost its ability to fight. The winner is Dream Demon! The one who enters the finals is player No. 7, Philio from Salo Academy!"
Natalie walked to the unconscious Demon Fire Red Fox, checked for a moment, stood up, and loudly announced the results of the game.
Unilateral suppression from beginning to end.
"You are so strong as a swindler..."
Kazama Hideki reluctantly took back the demon fire red fox and stepped forward.
The number of Philio's supporters grew more and more, and cheers mingled with his name resounded throughout the avenue.
------------------
"Machi( ̄~ ̄)"
The little dream monster eating the energy cube was very satisfied with the battle just now.
Exhilarating, fast attacks, cross attacks, and powerful energy hedging, this is the fighting style that the little dream monster really likes.
It's a pity that the usual opponents are too strong. If you don't be careful, it will be difficult to win.
The guy in front of me is just right. Even if he hides the two trump cards of meditation and poison, the battle is uneventful.
He was unscathed, just a little tired. After taking a few energy cubes, he was resurrected with full health.
"Buyi! Buyi!"
Little Eevee struggled to crawl out of Filio's arms and landed next to the little dream demon. His eyes were shining, full of admiration for the little dream demon's strength.
At the same time, I was also full of envy for the tacit understanding between him and Philio.
"You will be as strong as the little dream monster, don't worry." Filio, who knew exactly what Ibrahimovic was thinking, comforted him softly, "Such an opponent will be nothing to you in the future.
You have to stand higher and see farther."
"Marge!"
The little dream demon also stretched out her little hand and touched Ibrahimovic's head.
------------------
"Don't worry about it, Hideki. You did a good job. At least you tested out his speed and seal. Go back and train hard and get it back next time."
Looking at the disciple who took back the demon fire red fox and walked back without saying a word, Latoni felt a little sad and comforted her.
However, Hideki Kazama is not depressed at all, but is trying his best to restrain his excitement.
After hearing the teacher's words, he replied with a trembling voice: "I know, teacher, Yaohuo Red Fox and I are not sad, but are very happy. We haven't had such a strong opponent for a long time, and I really hope to fight him again! Xiao
Well, it’s up to you.”
"Just leave it to me."
Sean agreed happily, but he didn’t have any confidence in his heart.
Although he is stronger than Rosalin and Hideki Kazama, he is only slightly better.
However, feeling the expectant eyes of the students behind him, he still strode onto the stage.
This, after all, is Miare, the home ground of Miare College.
