In the office, Daigo, who was taking a break, was watching the live broadcast of the Shuijing City Gorgeous Competition.
In Liuli City, Mikoli was also watching the live broadcast of the gorgeous competition.
"It's interesting. Lucia is here too. What kind of performance will you put on this time?" Mikoli put down the ancient book in his hand, picked up a cup of fragrant tea, and stared at the live broadcast screen with interest.
pat!
Before Su Yiren appeared on stage, the lights in the venue dimmed. The audience could not see the specific scene on the stage clearly. They could only vaguely see a figure walking onto the stage.
Deng!
The light from the capture ball illuminated the darkness a little, and a tall figure appeared on the dark stage, standing side by side with Su Yi's figure.
The audience began to whisper at first, and then the venue quickly quieted down, with everyone staring expectantly at the figure in the center of the stage.
"It looks like it's not Dragonite?" Mikoli picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. His curiosity was aroused. What kind of Pokémon would he send out?
Thump thump thump.
The spotlights lit up one by one, then turned and converged on the figure in the center of the stage.
At this time, Su Yi was wearing a sleeveless vest on his upper body and shorts on his lower body. Both were close-fitting in size, fully outlining the muscular lines of his body. The muscles in his legs and arms bulged slightly under the spotlight.
Beside him, the muscular Golden Lion and Su Yi faced the audience together. They both bent their arms and clenched their fists, making a bodybuilding pose with their biceps flexed forward.
The veins on the golden lion's sturdy forelimbs bulged slightly under the spotlight, like vines clinging to marble. The lines and shapes that represent strength give people an overwhelming sense of oppression.
"puff!"
Mikoli spat out the tea in his mouth and his eyes widened.
"Hahahaha!"
Seeing this scene, Daigo was amused and could imagine Mikoli's expression at the moment, so he burst into laughter.
Inside the gorgeous competition venue, the audience was silent for a moment, staring at Su Yi and the Golden Lion in a daze.
"That guy is still so unexpected."
In the waiting room, Xiao Shun's mouth twitched.
Lukia, who was looking forward to a magnificent contest with Su Yi and Feng Pialong, was stunned.
At the top of a mountain, Caidou sat cross-legged, eating snacks and watching the live broadcast of the gorgeous competition. When Su Yi made his mysterious appearance, she was still full of curiosity, but when Su Yi and the Golden Lion made their full appearance, she was immediately amused.
She had never seen Su Yi like this before, showing off his muscles with a mysterious smile on his face.
Su Yi and Golden Lion ignored the astonishment of the audience. They continued to perform a series of bodybuilding poses, stretching their double latissimus dorsi muscles in front, stretching their chest in the side, and stretching their double latissimus dorsi muscles in the back.
The host was the first to react and said, "Oh! What a muscular body! Contestant Su Yi is really unexpected. When we thought he would bring a gorgeous performance with Pokémon like before, this time he chose a bodybuilding performance to show his strength!"
The audience, who were stuck in the three philosophical questions of "Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?" suddenly came to their senses. They had different opinions on Su Yi and Golden Lion's performance, and the scene suddenly became noisy.
The score of the performance round depends roughly on several performance states of the Pokémon, which are roughly divided into handsome, beautiful, cute, strong, smart, etc., and points are given according to the degree of performance of these states.
After all, Pokémon are not only cute or beautiful, there are also smart or strong ones. Each Pokémon has its own charm. If the coordination trainer can bring out the charm of the Pokémon, then he can get high scores.
Coordination trainers all have their own aesthetics, but most people prefer handsome, beautiful, and cute Pokémon, so combinations like Su Yi and Golden Lion that purely display strength are rare.
But the judges' scoring must be fair and just. Su Yi is not worried about losing points because that is the charm of the Golden Lion. He does not need to deliberately distort or fabricate in order to cater to the aesthetic tastes of most people.
Moreover, even when Musashi participated in the gorgeous competition under the pseudonym, some of his weird performances were able to get high scores. Su Yi was not panicked. At worst, he could just treat this competition as a performance.
For the last pose, Su Yi chose to extend his biceps backwards.
Su Yi and the Golden Lion turned their backs to the audience, bent their arms and clenched their fists, posing the classic "Jinba Men's Suit" pose of hunters in old times when drinking medicine. The muscles on their backs bulged and twisted, as if turning into the face of an angry King Kong.
"Golden Lion, let's perform your final performance!" Su Yi turned his head and smiled at the Golden Lion.
"Ouch!"
The Golden Lion gave a thumbs-up, then raised his left hand and used Falling Rock. An energy rock condensed in his hand and continued to grow.
Golden Lion: Big! Big! Big!
"Oh! This move is falling rocks?! This is amazing!" the host exclaimed loudly.
The Golden Lion can easily lift rocks that are larger than its body. This is a huge rock with a diameter of at least 7 or 8 meters. The rock cannons performed by many Pokémon cannot reach this scale.
"Roar!"
The golden lion roared, and all of its black hair stood up, emitting a golden light. At the same time, electric light flashed around its body. Because it was facing away from the audience, the audience could see the large patch of hair on its back instantly turning golden.
Shocked!
The powerful muscles were matched with the wild golden lightning. Even if the golden lion did not attack, just the proud posture of standing with the huge rock in his hands was enough to make the powerful pressure rush straight to the heart!
Strength is gold!
Then, the golden lion threw the huge rock up with ease, and the audience's hearts were lifted up as the huge rock flew into the air.
If this falls down, a big hole will be created on the entire venue!
"Roar!"
The golden lion roared, its eyes looking disdainful. There was a crackling sound of its knuckles popping. It clenched its right fist and used the Rock Crushing Technique on the falling rock.
Bah!
The golden fist slammed heavily on the boulder in a plain and simple manner. In an instant, cracks appeared all over the boulder. Then there was another crisp sound, and the boulder shattered.
The noise first paused, and then cheers and applause suddenly broke out.
The host said excitedly: "It's wonderful! This is simply the perfect interpretation of power!"
Judge Mr. Kang Kenstein smiled and said, "What a unique performance. I didn't expect contestant Su Yi to be able to show the charm of Pokémon so well. This is a big leap from the previous gorgeous performances. Could it be that you want to develop in all aspects?"
Su Yi smiled and said, "I'm just trying to show their proper charm. If there is a chance, I will try."
"I like both this and the previous one!" Mr. Sukisa still had squinted eyes, but from his smile, it can be seen that he was very happy.
Miss Joy from Shuijing City said: "Su Yi and his team really have a unique charm."
"It's over! That Pokémon called Golden Lion looks very strong. If it enters the gorgeous battle stage, who can stop it?" Xiaoyao scratched his hair, feeling helpless.
Lukia immediately opened the illustrated guide to look up the Golden Lion's information.
"The King of Fanged Beasts who recklessly drives out all competitors in his territory, the embodiment of destruction with both strength and agility."
She was sweating profusely just by reading the introduction, and finally looked at the attribute combination, oh wow, fighting + electricity.
Xiao Qingqing is a combination of general + flying.
"Hihiru?"
Xiao Qingqing looked at the huge and strong golden lion on the display screen, then looked timidly at Lukia.
Xiao Qingqing: Do you really want to fight it?
"It's okay. Although the opponent is not the Wind Dragon as expected, we don't need to defeat it."
But Lukia's tone no longer had any confidence.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 476: Not gorgeous, but powerful enough!
The judges' scoring was fair. Su Yi and Golden Lion's performances were shocking enough and in line with the rules of the competition, so they received high scores to advance.
But Su Yi felt a little regretful.
It would be nice if the background music could include Golden Lion's exclusive BGM "Golden Mane" or "One Punch Man's" BGM "THE HERO!! ~Furious Fist Fires~".
The music of the glamour contest is not powerful enough!
How could this make people who have been beaten by the Golden Lion suffer from PTSD every time they hear its appearance BGM?
It’s a pity that these music don’t exist in the Pokémon world.
Su Yi and Golden Lion had a lot of fun, but the other contestants who advanced were under tremendous pressure.
It is obvious at first glance that the Golden Lion is an opponent that is not easy to deal with. Although a gorgeous battle does not require defeating the opponent, the "gorgeousness" of the Golden Lion is strength. That posture is completely aimed at "beating you directly to the point where you can't get up again". Doesn't this forcibly turn a gorgeous battle into a Pokémon battle?
Mikoli, who was watching the live broadcast, also realized this situation and said with a headache: "Is this still a gorgeous competition? I still prefer the combination of you and Fengpiaolong."
"You always come up with something new for me."
In the waiting room, Xiao Shun smiled bitterly and said, "Can you show mercy if we meet again later?"
He was really afraid that the Golden Lion would not be able to control his strength and would seriously injure his Pokémon.
Su Yi raised his thumb, grinned and said, "Hit me first!"
Xiao Shun and other contestants: "."
After a short break, the groups for the gorgeous battle were announced on the screen, and all the players were extremely nervous.
The first game, Lukia VS Su Yi!
Lucia suffered a cardiac arrest.
Su Yi smiled and said, "The first battle! As you wish, let's have a fight! It may not be gorgeous enough, but it will definitely be exciting enough!"
Looking at Su Yi who was confident, Lukia comforted herself in her heart: strength is not the decisive factor in the gorgeous competition. As long as you use the moves reasonably, you will have a chance!
Both parties quickly took to the stage and released their respective partners.
The bluebird Xiao Qingqing flew into the sky, trying to keep a distance from the ferocious-looking golden lion, but the golden lion was dismissive. In its eyes, Xiao Qingqing was no different from a circling rabbit.
"The magnificent battle begins!"
Following the host's order, Lukia immediately asked Xiao Qingqing to take the lead.
"Use Feather Dance!"
Xiao Qingqing flapped her cotton-like wings, and the white feathers drew a beautiful arc and flew quickly towards the golden lion.
Lukia thought to herself: As long as we can reduce its attack capability step by step, we will have some room for error!
Su Yi said calmly: "The sixty-third of the broken path: the thunder roar cannon!"
"Roar!"
The golden lion pounded the ground with his fist and a pillar of lightning burst out of his mouth, illuminating the entire venue. Everyone who heard the thunder was immediately terrified.
The lightning was like a rainbow, sweeping across violently, and all the feathers were blown away. Lukia stared at the sky in panic, and only breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Xiao Qingqing barely avoided the lightning column.
