Chapter 323: Top 4, Challenge Musashi!
"I lost..."
Jianwu muttered to himself, silently putting the Pokémon back into the Poké Ball, looking a little lonely. This also meant that his journey to the gorgeous competition this year was over, and Xiaoguang also...
At this moment, a cheer reached Jianwu's ears: "It's okay, we won!"
Jianwu raised his head and looked in the direction of the voice, only to see Xiaoguang across from him excitedly hugging her Pokémon tightly with a brilliant smile on her face.
Looking at Xiaoguang's joyful expression, Jianwu's mood gradually calmed down for some reason.
His originally lonely expression gradually became calm, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth involuntarily.
"If I lose to Hikaru, it wouldn't be bad."
"keep it up."
Thinking of this, Jianwu took a deep breath, then turned around and slowly left the arena.
He did not look back, nor did he say goodbye to Xiaoguang. Although he felt a little regretful, he decided to turn this regret into motivation to move forward and inspire himself to keep working hard!
That night, as darkness enveloped the entire competition venue, the list of the top four finalists was finally officially announced amid everyone's eager anticipation.
In the center of the stage, the spotlight came on, illuminating the lively figure of the host Bai An. She held the microphone and said passionately:
"Dear audience, after a series of matches, the top four contestants of this magnificent celebration have emerged. They are!"
"The gorgeous style is famous for music, and is even known as a bard, Mr. Shang Zhi!"
At this time, the image of Shang Zhi switched to the big screen. Shang Zhi was wearing an exquisite dress, with an upright posture and an elegant temperament.
Facing the camera, Shang Zhi nodded slightly, holding a harp, with a faint smile on his lips, his movements were so elegant that he looked like a nobleman from the Middle Ages.
This made the rich ladies below very greedy. Each of them, who still had charm, stared at Shang Zhi with lingering eyes, probably imagining some unspeakable scenes in their minds.
Then, Bai An continued to introduce: "The next one to advance is Miss Xiao Wang, who is good at gorgeous fighting and has superb skills!"
The camera quickly turned to Xiao Wang, who was wearing a tuxedo and looked cool. He nodded slightly at the camera and greeted him in a friendly manner.
The men present felt average about this neutral style of dress, but the little girl inexplicably liked it and looked at Xiao Wang with admiration.
Wang Jiang, the lilies in my hometown are blooming.
"The third qualifier, Sweet Musashi, has unparalleled faith in Pokémon and a variety of playing styles..."
Before Baian finished speaking, Musashi could not wait to rush in front of the camera and shouted excitedly: "Yes, I am sweet Musashi Lina! Everyone must support me, I love you all!!"
Because he was too excited, Musashi's big face was almost sticking to the camera, filling up the entire screen, which scared the audience and they quickly put away their inappropriate thoughts.
Compared to Nozomi and Hisashi who relied on their strength, Musashi relied on luck. Just like Satoshi who just participated in the Quartz Conference, she didn't meet many powerful people along the way, and she advanced to the top four easily, which was very smooth.
Seeing the atmosphere suddenly become dull, Bai An felt a little embarrassed. He laughed dryly and said, "Haha, it looks like Miss Musashi Lina is really quite active."
After that, Bai An, a professional host, quickly changed the topic and said in a high voice: "The last qualifier said that she has been making a name for herself in the glamour competition since her debut. Her performance style is beautiful, her confrontation is clean and neat, and she has both strength and glamour."
At this point, Lily deliberately raised her voice.
"Princess Sinnoh, Miss Hikari!"
As Lily finished speaking, Xiaoguang, dressed in an elegant long dress, walked forward lightly.
She leaned slightly and bowed towards the camera, with a sweet smile on her face, as beautiful as a flower blooming in spring.
Then, Xiaoguang said in a clear and pleasant voice: "Hello everyone, thank you for your continued support. I will continue to work hard!"
"Whoa whoa whoa!"
At this moment, the audience (old and naive) could no longer suppress their excitement, and various excited shouts could be heard from the crowd from time to time.
"Aww, Hisashi is so handsome!!"
"What do you know upstairs? I think sweet Musashi Lina still has her charm."
"I don't understand anything about the second floor, Xiaowang is so unique. I love this cool neutral style the most."
"Sinnoh Princess, Sinnoh Princess!"
"Xiao Guang is the most beautiful in the world. Xiao Guang, I love you!!!"
For a moment, all kinds of cheers came like a tide and applause was thunderous. It was obvious that they were deeply impressed by the performances of these people.
Because of Xiaoguang's performance in the preliminary round and her princess costume, she received the most support.
There is someone who is too busy to keep an eye on.
Afterwards, four people's avatars appeared on the big screen, and the avatars began to rotate, and the battle grouping began. The result of the grouping was.
Xiao Wang VS Mr. Shang Zhi.
Xiaoguang VS sweet Musashi Lina.
"Tomorrow morning, the above four contestants will decide the final champion. Please remember to watch on time, both in person and on TV!"
As Bai'an finished speaking, today's competition came to an end. The audience stood up with a sense of unfulfilled desire, and left the stadium in an orderly manner while discussing the competition.
"I knew Xiao Guang would be fine. My daughter-in-law is the best."
"Time flies by so fast. This kid has actually made it to the semi-finals. Even a mother like me can't help but get nervous."
Looking at the shining Xiaoguang on the stage, different thoughts emerged in Lina and Ayako's minds for a moment, but they were all deep blessings for Xiaoguang.
--------------
Night, inside the room.
Xiaoguang, who had just finished taking a bath, was wearing cute Pogo stick pajamas and rolling around on the bed with a silly smile on his little face.
At this moment, Xiaoyun, who had just finished taking a shower, looked at this scene with a strange expression, and couldn't help but teasing: "You are so excited, the competition is tomorrow, aren't you going to sleep yet?"
"Yeah, I can't sleep because I have a game tomorrow. I feel my heart is beating really fast."
Hearing Xiaoyun's voice, Xiaoguang hurriedly sat cross-legged on the bed, her little face flushed. She pointed to the position of her heart and replied in a tender voice.
"I don't believe it unless you let me hear it."
Although he was asking, he actually had his ear close to Xiaoguang's chest, pretending to listen very carefully, and nodded from time to time.
"It's really fast, but there's one most important point you didn't mention."
Xiao Guang didn't dare to move, and asked with a red face: "What else?"
Xiao Yun raised his head seriously and said seriously, "It's a little soft."
"Come on, you're so annoying!"
Having said that, Xiaoguang still couldn't understand that this guy was teasing her. While scolding him, she angrily reached out her hand and pushed Xiaoyun aside.
Xiaoyun also cooperated with Xiaoguang and was held down. After playing for a while, Xiaoyun looked at her and said with a smile: "How is it, are you still nervous now?"
Xiaoguang was stunned. After Xiaoyun's commotion, she felt that she was indeed not so nervous. Then she frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and then expressed her thoughts.
"That's right. I thought before that I would participate in the festival, defeat various opponents, and then become the champion."
"Yeah, that's a normal thought."
Xiaoyun responded with a smile. Who doesn’t have some ideals? He also thought about becoming the champion of Sinnoh and taming alpacas.
Xiao Guang lay on the bed, shielding his eyes from the dazzling light with his hands, and continued, "But, after I really started participating in the competition, I always felt that there were so many people, and I had made it this far. It seemed that even the championship was not that far away. It felt like it was right next to me, just..."
Xiaoguang paused here, with a somewhat conflicted expression on her face. Xiaoyun understood what she meant and finished what she said.
“It’s a little unreal, isn’t it?”
Snapped!
A crisp sound was heard, and Xiaoguang slapped Xiaoyun's thigh in excitement, nodding his head repeatedly to show his agreement: "Yes, it's like these things are all my imagination, it's a dream, and it's gone when I wake up."
Xiaoyun smiled slightly and said softly: "Don't think too much. You are just too anxious. Think about our experience along the way. It can't be fake."
"Hmm...., it is indeed very real."
Xiaoguang nodded slightly and fell into deep thought. Their journey was definitely a rich one.
Participating in a gorgeous competition for the first time, fighting against hunter J, encountering mythical beasts, phantom beasts, many mythical beasts and phantom beasts, and traveling through the Xi Cui area, a series of thrilling scenes are exciting just to think about.
"Right, so just play your best tomorrow and seize the opportunity. Don't worry."
After Xiaoyun finished speaking, he rubbed his thigh which was hurt by the slap with one hand inconspicuously, and placed the other hand gently on Xiaoguang's hair, and his voice was extremely gentle.
"Besides, this isn't a dream, is it?"
When Xiaoyun said this, although her eyes were on Xiaoguang, deep down in her heart she was actually seeking confirmation from herself.
He hoped from the bottom of his heart that all the beautiful things before his eyes were not just illusions, but real and indisputable facts.
Perhaps sensing Xiaoyun's emotional fluctuations at the moment, Xiaoguang looked at him, his bright and moving eyes meeting Xiaoyun's gaze directly. He nodded heavily and responded with a voice as loud as a silver bell.
"of course!"
--------------
The next day, at the competition site.
Although it hasn't started yet, the grand celebration scene is already packed with people and looks very lively.
In the center of the stage, the host Bai An held the microphone and said with a smile on his face: "Hello, good morning, everyone."
"After a night of waiting, the semi-finals of the gorgeous competition that everyone has been looking forward to has begun, and our two contestants have already taken their positions."
The camera switched to the arena, where Musashi and Xiaoguang had already taken their respective positions.
Facing the camera, Xiaoguang smiled and nodded slightly to the audience.
In contrast, Musashi seemed extremely excited, cheering excitedly and blowing kisses all the time.
"Hello everyone, I am sweet Musashi Lina, everyone must support me, I love you!!!"
"Musashi is here again..."
In the audience, Kojiro and Meowth, who were wearing sales uniforms and working part-time selling retail products, thought to themselves.
But at the same time, they were also happy for Musashi from the bottom of their hearts, because Musashi has always had a dream of becoming an actor, and today's competition can be regarded as the fulfillment of Musashi's dream of performing.
"Without further ado, I hereby announce that the first match of the semi-finals will be between Xiao Guang and Tian Tian Musashi Lina. Now..."
Before Bai An finished speaking, the audience, who could no longer contain their excitement, shouted in unison: "Let the game begin!"
The big screen appeared, cheers resounded through the sky, and the audience's enthusiasm was fully mobilized at this moment.
"Little girl, get ready for my sweet Musashi Lina's gorgeous moves."
Musashi, who had already been praised by the audience, put one hand on his waist and threw the Poké Ball decisively, looking very proud of himself.
"Mekayangma and Guoran Weng make a grand appearance!"
A red light flashed, and a Mekayangma that looked like a dragonfly flapped its wings and flew high, circling in the air.
The other Pokémon took slow and steady steps, stood leisurely in the center of the arena, and saluted.
"Son...Nance!"
God of God, indeed Weng!
At the same time, Xiaoguang looked determined, threw the Poké Ball with her hands, and shouted in a delicate voice: "Blue Cotton Bird, Charm is here!"
A red light flashed, and a small and exquisite blue bird flapped its cotton-like wings and flew lightly in the air.
Seeing this scene, Musashi on the opposite side couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, with a puzzled look on his face: "Little girl, are you sure? Are you going to fight me with a Pokémon?"
Not only Musashi was curious, but many of the audience members present were also curious. They also wanted to know why Xiaoguang only released one Pokémon to fight.
However, in the face of everyone's doubts and confusion, Xiaoguang looked down at the shadow under his feet and said softly in an extremely gentle voice: "Don't be shy, come out quickly, Gengar."
"Kou Jie!"
Immediately afterwards, a round purple figure slowly emerged from Xiaoguang's shadow.
"Jie..."
However, when the purple fat boy saw the crowds of people around him, his little chubby face froze for a moment, his eyes kept turning, his little hands kept pointing, and he suddenly felt a little at a loss.
The hidden personal attributes were exposed at once.
There are so many people, I really want to go back...
Just when Gengar was thinking about giving up and running away, Xiaoguang's sweet voice suddenly rang out.
"Geng Gui, come on, let's work hard together."
Gengar turned his head and saw Hikaru smiling with encouragement in his eyes.
"Chirp."
The bluebird also flapped its wings and flew down, landing beside Gengar. It chirped happily, as if echoing Xiaoguang's words and cheering Gengar on.
"Kou Jie~"
Feeling the encouragement from Dawn and Bluebird, Gengar was stunned for a moment, looked at Dawn, and then turned his gaze to the two Pokémon opposite.
The chubby little face gradually became serious, he clenched his fists, and a raging fighting spirit burned in his eyes.
No problem, leave it to me!
I, Guigui, try the hardest!
