Chapter 490: Yunxiao Cup, officially begins
"Welcome everyone to the annual Yunxiao Cup Flying Pokémon Riding Competition. Hello everyone, I am Li Xiao!"
In the Linyu Mountains, on the top of the peak, between the high platforms, a dark-skinned, tall middle-aged man was shouting with his arms raised high.
"Hiss... This Li Xiao Tian Wang is in good spirits."
Lin Shi tightened his clothes and said, I don’t know who chose the opening venue. It’s so high and the wind is so strong that it’s about to blow his nose.
"That's right. Li Xiao Tian Wang is considered young among the four Tian Wangs in various regions. It is really admirable that he has achieved such results at such a young age."
Chi Fei spoke with pride, stretching his neck to look at the stage, holding Li Xiao's cheering card in his hand and shaking it back and forth.
"This flying riding competition uses a switchback track. The mountain we are on now is both the starting point and the end point. Do you see Linyu Peak behind me? That is the turning point in the middle."
"The contestants need to start from here and ride the elves to Linyu Peak according to the prescribed flying track. There are a sufficient number of golden rings placed on the top of Linyu Peak. Each contestant who arrives needs to take one, and can only take one, as a certificate."
"After getting the gold ring, the contestants need to fly back on another return track. The first contestant to reach the finish line with the gold ring will be the champion of this Yunxiao Cup!"
"Did everyone hear that clearly?"
Li Xiao held the microphone and shouted loudly, with full energy.
"clear!"
The contestants in the audience shouted loudly and were full of passion.
"Very good, very energetic!"
"But I still want to remind you that Pokémon are allowed to use skills during the game, but they are not allowed to actively attack other Pokémon and trainers. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences at your own risk."
……
"Phew, the game is about to start. How do you feel? Are you nervous?"
In the preparation room, Chi Fei was putting on his equipment. He took a deep breath and looked at Lin Shi and asked.
"It's okay, a little bit."
Lin Shi flicked his fingers slightly, making a crisp sound.
"Hey, isn't this Captain Chi Fei of [Wings in the Clouds]? Long time no see. Are you here to participate in the competition again?"
While the two were talking, a short man with dyed blond hair and earrings came over and leaned against the door and spoke in a vulgar tone.
Seeing the man, Chi Fei looked a little indifferent.
"Lan Lang, you are here as expected."
"Captain Chi, please don't have that expression. I am your junior brother after all. Why do you look like you have seen an enemy?"
Chi Fei's unfriendly tone didn't seem to make Lan Lang angry at all, and he continued to talk to himself with a smile.
"I have nothing to say to you. See you on the court."
But Chi Fei didn't appreciate it at all and still had a cold expression on his face, which was completely different from the outgoing and friendly image that Lin Shi had in mind.
"Tsk..."
Lan Lang clicked his tongue, then turned his gaze to Lin Shi, and was slightly stunned when he saw his immature face.
"This young man doesn't look very old, but he is able to participate in a competition of this level. He is indeed gifted."
Lan Lang's tone was a little surprised, but then his tone changed, with some regret and disdain.
"But he actually joined such a third-rate club. Is that too much? Or is it that our Captain Chi has deceived him again..."
"enough!"
Chi Fei interrupted sharply, staring at Lan Lang.
"Since you have quit, you don't need to care about our club's affairs. I will take back the grudge between us on the court!"
Chi Fei's voice was loud, like an angry lion.
Seeing Chi Fei's attitude, Lan Lang grinned.
"If you are still stubborn, I will see how long you and your crappy club can hold out! Don't come begging me when the time comes!"
"Also, little brother, if you want to change clubs, you can come to me. I am definitely better than them."
"roll!"
There was no need for Chi Fei to chase him away. After saying this, Lan Lang turned around and left naturally.
"Whoosh..."
Chi Fei gasped angrily, looked at Lin Shi, sighed slightly and said.
"I'm sorry to make you laugh. This Lan Lang was originally a member of our club. He is extremely talented. Not only is he sensitive to wind, he also tamed a very talented sonic dragon."
"He was the hope for our club to grow and develop, at least that's what we all thought at the time."
Speaking of this, Chi Fei's expression was a little depressed.
"But later, Lanlang betrayed us and went to other clubs. Actually, it's not his fault. People always want to move up."
"But he not only left himself, but also took away a group of outstanding talents in the club at that time. The club has since fallen from a low point, and has directly fallen from a well-known club to a third-rate one."
"Master fell ill because of this and died soon after, so I will never forgive him! Not only that, I will defeat him fair and square in the arena and bring our CJB club back to the top!"
Chi Fei said this through gritted teeth, with a flame of fighting spirit burning in his eyes, but he soon fell silent again, revealing a bitter smile.
"But this is too difficult. Lan Lang's Soundwave Dragon won the third place in the Yunxiao Cup last year. The top two did not participate this year. Apart from Li Xiao Tianwang, he is the favorite to win..."
"Don't worry, Captain."
Before Chi Fei could finish his words, he was interrupted by Lin Shi's voice. He looked up and saw that Lin Shi had already put on his team uniform and was brushing the [CJB] logo engraved on his chest with his hand.
"I am also a member of the club, even though I am a substitute."
Lin Shi smiled, revealing his white teeth. He was determined to become the champion, and no matter who it was, Lan Lang or Li Xiao, he had to defeat them!
"Ah...hahaha...ok."
Hearing Lin Shi's words, Chi Fei was stunned at first, then he threw back his neck and laughed. The depression just now disappeared and his morale was boosted again.
That’s right, don’t be afraid of anything, just do it!
"Come on, Captain, we should go out, the game is about to start."
Lin Shi tilted his head and said.
At this moment, on the top of the mountain, the contestants began to take their positions, and all kinds of flying elves took off into the sky, making it extremely lively.
"Captain, come on Lin Shi."
Han Xiaoyin was riding on a cross-shaped bat, shouting "Come on!" outside the track. Besides him, there were many other people who came to watch the race, and without exception, they were all flying in the air.
The organizer provides a service for renting flying elves, so even if you don’t have a flying elf, you can still rent one to watch the game.
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the annual Yunxiao Cup Flying Pokémon Riding Competition. I am the host of this competition and will accompany you to watch the competition."
Just then, a man riding on a big-billed gull started speaking with a microphone. His voice traveled far away and could be heard throughout the entire peak.
"Please be patient and calm."
"The exciting moment is about to begin. Before that, let us welcome one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Central China, who is also a contestant in this competition - Li Xiao!"
"Hey..."
As soon as the host finished speaking, an eagle cry was heard from the sky, and then a huge Pokémon fell from the sky...
