Chapter 174: Hole Card
Pikachu, Slowpoke, Kirby, Meow Meowth, Miraculous Seed, Charmander, Chrysanthemum Leaf, Eevee, Walker, Crocodile, Sea Lion, Ink Seahorse...etc.
Most of them are water elves, and the smaller half are other general types, insect type, grass type, elves, etc.
Most of these elves are ordinary elves raised by ordinary people. Some have not evolved after being raised for more than ten years and are still in the initial elf stage.
There are also a few, even elves that have been passed down and raised by parents and grandparents for decades. Because it has been too long, they have evolved by relying on time. These pet elves that rely on time to evolve should not be underestimated, even if they are not trained.
The command of the family can also display considerable strength. After all, over time, even a pig has become wise, let alone an elf.
Wang Ming did not rush to sign up, but wandered around the outside of the square. When Meicheng's annual National Elf Competition starts, the surrounding hotels and shopping malls will launch discounts and promotions, selling all things related to elves, including elf eggs.
, ranging from medium-sized elf energy foods to small elf balls, elf toys, elf props, etc., the prices are often 22% off or even 50% off on weekdays.
Promotional signs have been launched in front of each store.
This one sells Super Poké Ball at a 20% discount, only 8,888 yuan.
This store offers 30% off pet elf eggs for only 23,333 yuan.
This one offers a 40% discount on energy cubes, as long as... Wang Ming took a look at it and thought, forget it, even with a 40% discount, it costs 66,666 yuan per piece, and the food expenses of the stupid fish king for more than half a year are gone.
The next one, magical candies, 50% off, 2,500 yuan each, okay, you are ten times cheaper, 250 yuan, I might consider it...
After wandering around for a while, Wang Ming left with a toothache and couldn't even afford the cheapest magical candies.
In the anime and game, any teenage doll trainer, energy cubes, and magical candies are given to the elves for free.
Thinking about reality again, it's too real... I'm sure that Master Zhi is definitely a rich second generation. Most of the peers and opponents that Master Zhi meets are also super rich second generations.
In the hands of these super rich second generation, energy cubes, magic candies, evolution stones, elf hospital recuperation, and even the most basic elf balls, super elf balls, etc. are taken out casually. These things are all money, a lot of them
money!
After visiting most of the square, Wang Ming silently went to the registration store in the square. The long queue was like a snake swaying, including boys and girls in their teens, young people in their twenties, and adults in their thirties.
Aunts in their fifties, even old men in their sixties or seventies, etc.
Doing a little calculation, there were at least hundreds of people in sight.
Of course, these people cannot all be trainers, just ordinary people who own Pokemon.
Although they are ordinary people, everyone is well dressed. Some are rich or noble, some have a good temperament, and few are shabby. Also, those who can afford to raise Pokemon will not have a bad family background.
.
The competition started in the afternoon, and the whole morning was spent on registration. When noon came, the total number of registrations was determined.
The number of applicants this year is 2,462.
At 1 p.m., the first knockout phase of the National Elf Competition officially begins.
The large stage in the square is divided into ten small stages, where the elf elimination competition is held at the same time.
In order to quickly screen out capable contestants, these ten small stages were divided into three meters in size. The victory condition is to knock the opponent out of the stage. It is simple and effective. One compares strength, the second compares luck, the third compares actual combat experience, and
If it's not your Poke Ball, you will definitely win. If you accidentally rush out of the small stage with too much force, you will be eliminated directly.
More than an hour passed in the blink of an eye, and 2,462 contestants were eliminated round after round at a speed visible to the naked eye.
As a knockout round, only the top 100 winners will advance to the semi-finals, so they must win at least five rounds.
An elf who can win five rounds in a row and reach the top 100 will basically not be a weakling.
More than 2,462 contestants were allocated to ten small stages, with an average of more than 240 contestants per stage, fighting for the only top ten qualifications for each stage.
At this time, the stage where Wang Ming is sitting has finished the fourth round, and there are only 16 contestants left on the stage.
Next, there will be a final round of eliminations among the 16 people, and the top eight winners will directly get their places, while the remaining two places will be determined by the eight losers in the rematch.
In the square, on ten small stages, Wang Ming and his Slut King have already shown their talents, winning four rounds in a row.
"No. 9, the fifth knockout round begins, player No. 1264 versus player No. 2344."
No. 2344 is Wang Ming's number. His opponent No. 1264 is a rich young man in gorgeous clothes. His name is Zhang Chu. Wang Ming's classmate is also a trainer who just graduated this year. The elf in his hand is also unusual. It is a
Cute Eevee, he is a cute elf with long ears, like a cat, a dog or a fox, and has a pair of sparkling black gem-like eyes.
Ibrahimovic's strength itself is not bad, and his appearance is even better. He is loved by many novice trainers. He can have good combat power with just a little training, and he has many evolveable branches, making him extremely adaptable.
wide.
"Hehehe... Wang Ming, your Carp King is indeed well raised, but it is impossible to defeat my Eevee, just admit defeat." Zhang Chu stood on the stage, summoned his own Eevee, and laughed happily.
.
"Zhang Chu, you won't know until you do whether you can beat him."
"Okay, you won't give up until you reach the Yellow River, right? I don't need to tell you that my Eevee is already level 7, and your Magikarp is at most level 3, so there's no way it can be my ultimate weapon."
"Level 7? It seems that the energy foods are all high-end products. You are really willing to spend money. Ibrahimovic may have learned how to throw sand. No wonder you dare to be so confident."
"What? You want to say that I rely on money to defeat you?"
"No, money is a resource and a part of strength. I will not be jealous of your family wealth like other people do. That is meaningless."
"Oh, that's quite true. I'm a bit self-aware."
"However, you are also a trainer, and you should also understand that the combat effectiveness of elves cannot be accumulated by relying on resources."
The referee came over and interrupted the conversation between the two:
"Two of you, time is limited, and there are still people waiting to compete behind you. If there is no problem, after I blow the whistle, the battle will officially begin. The rules are 1V1 battle. The one who defeats or repels the elf out of the circle will be the winner."
"I'll count, three, two, one...start!"
"Eevee, go ahead, defeat that Magikarp, and add a magic candy bar to your meal tonight."
"Leave it to you, Silly Fish King, as usual, if you win, go home and add a bottle of milk."
Bu Yi! Bu Yi! Candy cubes? Sweet and delicious magical energy candy cubes? Ibrahimovic suddenly became more motivated to fight.
Gulu, Gulu...
Milk, milk, add another bottle of milk, great, there are five bottles of milk!
