Chapter 76 The Elf Exchange Competition on the Tanker
After a day of hard work, Xiaofeng and others had already boarded the large tanker, but once they got on, they found that it was very spacious inside, with an estimated capacity of more than 500 people. I don’t know what the captain grew up. He was so rich that everything inside made people feel extremely luxurious. At this time, Xiaofeng and his group of people had just boarded the ship for the first time.
"Well, there seem to be many Pokémon trainers here~ They are all gathered here, isn't it a bit strange?" Ayako asked with some confusion when she saw the person on the tanker holding his Pokémon in her arms and chatting with people.
"Uh! I'll ask people first!" After hearing this, Gulang said coldly, then walked to a young man in front and started chatting with him simply and politely. After a few minutes, Gulang turned around and walked towards Xiaofeng and the others.
"Have you asked something?" Xiaofeng asked hurriedly when he saw the lonely wolf coming back.
"Well, I heard that the annual Pokémon exchange competition seems to be held tomorrow morning. If you win, you will find a special prize. They should all come for this Pokémon exchange competition." Lone Wolf heard this and quickly looked at the crowd around and replied.
"Oh? Then I'll go and participate, as a test before the gym competition. Brother Lone Wolf, do you know where to sign up?"
"There is a competition? I want to participate, I will count it as one." When Ayako, who was standing on the side, she quickly stared at the lone wolf with golden light.
"Uh~ If you want to participate, register at that place, I won't go there. There are only 120 places. If you want to sign up, go there quickly." The wolf suddenly felt a little uncomfortable when he saw it, and quickly pointed to a crowd in front of him and said.
"Uh, no! There are so many people, I won't participate." Ayano immediately looked in the direction pointed by the lone wolf, and her face changed quickly.
"Uh~ Women are really fickle, but what I decided will definitely not change!" Xiao Feng heard this and was speechless to her, and then said frankly.
"Huh? Xiaofeng, what did you say?" Ayano immediately shone with a fierce look when she heard this, and she stared at Xiaofeng and asked.
"It's nothing~ I'm going to sign up, goodbye..." Xiaofeng immediately knew something was wrong when he heard it. Before he finished speaking, he left and ran towards the registration place.
"Hmph, I won't bother you this time..." Seeing this, Ayako immediately spitted at Xiaofeng's back, and after she finished speaking, she turned her head and stared at the lone wolf.
"Uh~ I... Is there anything on my face?" Gulang suddenly felt Ayako's gaze, and suddenly felt uncomfortable all over, and his face turned slightly red.
"Ha~ No, but you look so cute when blushing." Ayako smiled a little on her face when she saw the lonely wolf losing her composure.
"Where is it? I just drank too much, ha, ha..." This smile was enough to make the lone wolf stunned for a moment before coming to his senses. However, the tough face turned redder, and he secretly felt inexplicably strange about his behavior.
"Ha, do you think Xiaofeng can sign up?" Ayako just chuckled at him, and quickly changed the topic and looked at Xiaofeng who had already squeezed in and asked.
"I have confidence in him if I can do it." When the wolf heard this, he woke up immediately, his face immediately changed back to its original appearance, and he answered with certainty. Not long after he finished speaking, Xiaofeng hurriedly ran towards them.
"Hey! Look, I got the quota. My number is No. 101, which is not bad!" (101 Spotted Dog~--!!)
"Haha... Then you have to work hard tomorrow. Don't be eliminated so soon." Lone Wolf said when he heard this, he looked at Xiaofeng with a chuckling.
"Yes, Xiaofeng, you have to use my efforts. Even if you lose, don't lose too ugly. Do you know?" Ayako, who was standing beside her, also smiled and said.
"Uh~ What are you talking about? Are there anyone who encourages people like this? I ignore you anymore, I'll go to have a meal." Xiaofeng said and walked to the dining room angrily.
"Hehe... we're just joking. Xiaofeng, you're not so stingy, right?" Seeing this, Gulang and Ayako hurriedly stepped forward and explained to Xiaofeng.
"Haha... Actually, I'm joking too, so we'd better go to have a meal and then go to rest~" Xiao Feng quickly turned around and smiled when he heard this.
"Hmph, you kid..." Gulang heard this and quickly laughed and cursed, and at the same time stepped forward and beat Xiaofeng's chest. Xiaofeng didn't say anything about this, but still smiled and signaled Gulang and the others to follow and have a big meal for the day.
…………
Xiaofeng and the others spent the night safely, until early the next morning, the elf exchange competition finally kicked off, and the scene in the tanker's hall looked extremely hot and enthusiastic.
However, at this time, the participants and the audience had gathered together, waiting for the captain of the tanker who was hosting the competition to speak on the stage, and the conversation had gradually decreased. Until the captain stepped onto the more prominent stage in the hall, there was no sound in the audience, leaving only a pair of eyes staring at the old man on the stage.
"Dear sirs, ladies, and young and promising trainers from all over the world, good morning!" As soon as these words came out, a series of loud applause immediately sounded from the audience to show respect for the captain. Of course, Xiao Feng and the others still understand the etiquette, so they joined the applause without hesitation.
"Okay~ Today is indeed a special day. Anlu, I am very honored to have your support and arrival, so that the 3rd Elf Exchange Competition can be successfully launched~~~~" Captain Anlu was happy to see the crowds below responding so enthusiastically, and he felt a little more emotion. He quickly raised his hand and stopped the reaction from the audience. Although this was a polite word, as the audience and participants below, he still applauded enthusiastically.
"Okay, I hope that everyone here today can experience the fun of the competition between Pokémon, and I hope you will take away my special prize." As soon as this was said, a young man from the audience immediately asked curiously.
"What's that special prize?"
"Haha... the question you asked is very good, but! I can't say here first. When one of you can really win from the many trainers, I will tell you what the prize is. Moreover, this competition is not only special prizes, but also the second and third places have a prize. You must work hard to win it." Captain Anlu said with a mysterious smile when he heard this.
As soon as the words fell, the audience suddenly talked about it, and some people's eyes sparked with excitement. It seemed that the temptation of the prize was not ordinary.
Seeing the crowd below so excited, Captain Anlu hurriedly said, "Okay, stop first, I'll talk about the rules of this competition and the distribution of the venue. You must listen carefully, because the rules of this competition have changed from the last competition, so the contestants did not hear clearly, and then make mistakes during the competition, so don't say hello beforehand." When the audience heard this, the discussion suddenly became quiet.
"Okay, the players in the competition have heard it clearly. The venue of the competition: the competition is held in 6 places, and the area is divided into areas 1 to 6. Because there are so many 120 places in this competition, we will divide it into groups for each 20 people to compete at the designated location. The 6 referees will lead you there. Do the players must obey the referee's command and understand?" Captain Anlu said seriously.
At this time, a young man in the audience asked, "Then how do we distinguish which group is?"
"This little brother asked well, did we give the contestants a number? That number means the best certificate for which group you will be divided into..." Captain Anlu said with a smile.
The boy still didn't understand it very much, so he hurriedly walked to the stage and continued to ask, "What do you think of this number?"
"Please listen to me and ask again! For example, if one of the contestants' numbers is No. 35, then he will be divided into the second group. Do you understand how you look at it?" Captain Anlu said with a smile.
The young man nodded and said, "I understand, I am No. 101, that means I am in the fifth group, right? Do you think I am very smart?" The young man's eyes flashed, then he made Li Qi's classic movements and said with a confident smile.
However, when the boy said this number, I believe that you will know who this guy is without any details. This is undoubtedly Xiao Feng.
Everyone present burst into laughter after hearing his answer.
The lone wolf on the side patted his forehead and cursed: "This idiot, what are you doing? I really want to beat him now. It seems that Xiaona is right. This guy really deserves the information to beat him. It's so embarrassing."
However, Ayako kept saying, "I don't know him, don't look at me..." It can be seen that Xiaofeng's behavior was a little silly this time, and even as friends they pretended not to know each other.
"Uh...yes, yes, you're a little too smart..." Captain Anlu answered with a dry smile at the silly boy.
"Uh...is there any problem? Why are they all laughing?" Xiaofeng continued to ask stupidly.
"Do you still need to ask? Little kid, isn't it a joke that No. 101 you just said in Group 5? You should go back and eat more milk before coming here, don't embarrass you here." As soon as these words were said, a young man in the audience immediately sneered contemptuously.
"Is this the case?" Xiao Feng looked at Captain Anlu foolishly and continued to ask without any anger.
"Well, what you said just now is wrong. Every 20 people are divided into 1 group. Your number should be in the 6th group." Captain Anlu replied with a dry smile when he heard this.
"Oh... So that's the case. It seems that the question I asked is really stupid. I won't bother you to continue speaking!" Xiao Feng scratched his head and smiled dryly. After saying that, he walked downstairs, but not long after he finished speaking, there were a lot of ridicule in the audience.
"Uh... OK, let's talk about the rules of the game. The main thing is to determine the opponent by elimination and draw lots. If the players win in the preliminary round, they can enter the next round of the game, and vice versa. Then we mix the list of winning groups of 6 groups and divide them into 6 groups, with 10 people in each group. Those who win can enter the next round of the game. In the semi-finals, the group-to-group matches will be played with the winning 5 groups, and the three groups will be played in the finals. However, the competition is still based on groups, so it is necessary to test everyone's unity and cooperation, so do you understand?" Captain Anlu saw that Xiaofeng went down and hurriedly continued.
"Does that mean that if you win that group of prizes, you have to score 5 people together? How can you score?" The young man in the audience asked with a wry smile when he heard this.
"Haha... no, everyone who wins has a prize, so you don't have to worry about it. In order to save time, each person can only use one Pokémon to compete. It cannot be replaced in the game. Needless to say, the winner is promotion, or eliminated. After a game, the contestants can change Pokémon at any time according to their personal circumstances. So at that time, you must know clearly what kind of Pokémon the people in your group have, otherwise you may lose due to improper distribution, but you can't blame anyone. Do you understand?" Captain Anlu quickly explained. The things that the people in the audience care about the most were solved by the captain. Of course, they had no problem and quickly shouted to understand.
"Okay, I would also like to remind the contestants that those who violate my rules or ignore the judgment of disrespect for the referee will be disqualified from participating. Do you all understand?" Captain Anlu nodded when he heard this and said seriously. The people in the audience knew this, so they shouted clearly without hesitation.
"Well, then please ask the players to line up with their referees and let the referees lead you to the competition location. Now I announce that the Phoenix's elves exchange competition has officially begun." Captain Anlu glanced at the crowd below and announced with a smile.
Chapter completed!
