Lu Chen sensed a strong, malicious gaze coming from not far away.
I was just about to look up.
As a result, the gaze vanished without a trace.
And in this direction.
All that could be seen was Lu Hua, the Elite Four member of the Pokémon League, sitting slowly on the platform with the others.
Is it Lu Hua?
Or...someone else?
Lu Chen withdrew his gaze, a vague answer forming in his mind.
just now.
He must not be careless.
The Dragon Kingdom is currently in a very bad situation. The Elf Alliance is eyeing it covetously, and there are also mysterious figures from the World Organization searching for some secret realm.
"There's also the New Star Project mission, Lu Yao's situation in the Peaceful Secret Realm, and Shirabi's constant running around..."
In a word.
These are turbulent times!
There are people everywhere who want to kick someone when they're down!

When Lu Chen came down from the lottery site.
Seeing the 'resentful' looks in the eyes of the Chinese audience, I felt so helpless I wanted to cover my face.
Even Teacher Li Qing, who had always trusted him completely, was affected.
They all looked at him with very resentful eyes.
"Um... I had a bit of bad luck, hahaha-."
Lu Chen felt quite embarrassed.
However, Li Qing quickly picked up the conversation.
Withdrawing his resentful gaze, he said softly, "No need to apologize. We are the ones who should apologize. We're afraid we can't offer you much help in terms of combat."
Bai Miao and Wu Lan shared the same idea.
We've reached the semifinals.
It wouldn't be surprising to encounter any opponent.
If we consider the strength of the other contestants from the Dragon Kingdom, without Lu Chen, they might not have even made it into the top 16!
Currently, almost all Chinese players are in the top 16.
And it's all thanks to Lu Chen's methods!
And now.
They were completely helpless in the face of Lu Chen's predicament.
This also dragged down Lu Chen, whose strength had already surpassed theirs.
"That's not true." Lu Chen laughed heartily, unconcerned, and said, "Everyone did their best in the competition, and besides..."
"I'm not necessarily going to lose."
Lu Chen has made his decision.
If there's really no other way in the battle with Otto later, I'll have to use Beedrill's Bond Mode.
In short.
We absolutely must win this competition!
"Don't put pressure on yourself..." Bai Miao said at the right moment.
"Lu Chen, don't push yourself."
Ulan nodded.
after all.
As the team leader from the three major universities.
They are more aware of the difficulty level of this competition.
in other words.
Even if the opponents in the semifinals and finals were the geniuses from the three major university teams, they probably wouldn't be able to perform as well as Lu Chen.
To be able to enter the semi-finals as a newly debuted trainer.
That's already a great honor.
Even if we lose, no one can say anything.
just.
The audience in China has high expectations for Lu Chen.
It is based on the uniqueness that Lu Chen displayed from the moment he entered the public eye.
Lu Chen nodded.
His expression also showed a hint of relief.
After the draw.
It will take some more time to prepare.
Basically, Lu Chen and Otto's first battle was almost at 9:30.
During this time period.
Lu Chen did nothing else.
He simply sat in his seat with his eyes closed, contemplating the upcoming battle.
Although Otto's strength is not particularly outstanding.
But defeating that guy won't be an easy task.
Let's talk about one-on-one.
Under normal circumstances, the odds of defeating Tyranitar and Beedrill are about 40/60 or 30/70.
Physically, Beedrill is at a significant disadvantage.
In terms of strength, they certainly cannot completely overwhelm their opponent.
Although they had the ability to perceive the situation and the domain of silk threads as backup plans, their opponent's strength was not to be underestimated.
It's really difficult to fight.
If Beedrill enters Bond Mode, it has a high chance of winning.
However, the synergy system was exposed in the semifinals.
It feels like a waste to only target one of the opponent's Pokémon.
after all.
The Bond Mode is all about surprise; the second time you use it, the effect will definitely be worse than the first time!
The main thing is.
Lu Chen felt from the bottom of his heart that Sarah from the Sunset Kingdom was somewhat strange.
The strength of that beginner professional Mimikyu is simply a mystery!
But if Beedrill isn't allowed to undergo Bond Phenomenon...
“No, there are other options.” Lu Chen thought for a moment, then looked at Shi Lei, who was standing to the side with a hopeful expression, and said:
"Shi Lei".
"What's wrong? Boss?"
"When you went back to Chongqing to visit the Southwest Associated University last time, did you see senior Wang Anshu?"
"Yes! When I went back to register for university last time, senior Wang Anshu was still volunteering!"
Wang Anshu, a senior student at the Southwest Associated University Botanical Garden.
He is also a trainer specializing in poison-type Pokémon who provided Lu Chen with the poison formulation formula.
just.
Now he's going to ask if any of his senior classmates, Wang Anshu, have any information about the formulation of bee venom.
From before.
He had some general ideas.
Beedrill's deadly venom cannot be used in actual combat, as it is too damaging.
Therefore, the goal is to determine the type of stinger carried by the Beedrill.
To change the type of venom of the beetle.
Only by combining its own fast-attack tactics and control can it possibly defeat the Monsterra!
"I'm going to rest for a while."
After carefully considering the credibility of the statement, Lu Chen quickly stood up and said something to Shi Lei.
Then we headed straight for the players' lounge.
If Senior Wang Anshu has no objections, the Beedrill's sting venom modification can be completed at the start of the battle!
……
The time has come to 9:20.
The first semi-final match is about to begin.
