Cai Zhong gritted her teeth and sent out her next Pokémon: "Tropical Dragon, it's up to you. Use Sunny Day!"
Resembling a long-necked dragon with huge leaves growing on its back, the tropical dragon raised its long neck and sprayed a dazzling ball of light into the sky.
The sphere of light exploded, seemingly triggering a celestial phenomenon. The sunlight on the field suddenly became incredibly intense, and the temperature soared.
With the help of a sunny day, the tropical dragon flapped the leaves on its back, and its flight speed increased significantly.
"Take advantage of this moment, when the sun is blazing!" The vegetable seeds seize the advantage of the sunny weather to quickly gather energy.
The leaves on the tropical dragon's back frantically absorbed sunlight, and energy rapidly gathered in its mouth, instantly transforming into a scorching, thick, pure white beam of light. With a temperature that seemed capable of evaporating everything, it shot towards the Onion Warrior!
Li Shuwen's response remained concise and confident: "Onion Soldier, Brave Bird Attack."
"Gah!"
Undeterred, Cong Youbing transformed into a giant blue energy bird once more, circling around the blazing pillar of sunlight in a single turn!
The vegetable seed cried out in alarm, "Tropical dragon, get out of the way!"
But... the speed of the Brave Bird's attack, when wielded by Farfetch'd, is beyond imagination!
The giant blue bird struck the tropical dragon, which was trying to dodge by flying to the side, with perfect accuracy, like a lightning bolt tearing through light!
"Bang!!"
The tropical dragon let out a mournful cry as its massive body was slammed to the ground from the air, kicking up a cloud of dust. Its eyes rolled back, and it immediately lost consciousness.
Cai Zhong clenched her fists. Her Pokémon was so easily defeated by Li Shuwen. After this gym ranking competition, she would have to train her Pokémon even more seriously.
Not to mention the vegetables, even the spectators watching the game didn't expect the competition to go this way.
An office worker asked curiously, "Who is this handsome guy? He actually beat the vegetable from the Hyakudai Dojo so badly that it couldn't fight back at all?"
The girl next to him turned her head in surprise. "You don't know about the Midas Touch?"
The office worker blinked. "The Midas Touch, that title sounds really impressive."
The girl danced with excitement, "It's not just impressive in theory, it really is! Everyone who gets a 'golden finger' (a special ability to unlock one's true potential) can develop their full potential!"
"This battle didn't show Lord Shuwen's true strength at all; Cai Zhong is still too weak."
If the vegetable seed heard the girl's hurtful words, I wonder if it would be so devastated that it would become completely despondent.
The vegetable seed threw out its last Poké Ball: "Please, you cunning Thousand Dog!"
The cunning tengu, with hands resembling two enormous leaf fans and a demonic appearance, landed steadily, its eyes sharp.
"Cunning Tengu, Air Blade!" Caizhong launched a final desperate attack.
The cunning tengu rapidly swung the leaf-shaped fans on its arms, unleashing countless sharp-edged, pale blue, semi-transparent wind blades that shot out like a storm, densely covering the entire space in front of the onion soldier.
Li Shuwen gave his opponent a final salute, which was also the final command: "Onion Warriors, Meteor Assault!"
Using Meteor Strike as the final act for the cunning Tengu was a good choice!
Cong Youbing took a deep breath, concentrating all his strength, will, and winning momentum into the spear in his hand.
He once again transformed into the most dazzling golden meteor, and facing the overwhelming wall of wind blades, he chose the most direct and domineering way to break through—a head-on charge!
"Whoosh—Boom! Crack! Sizzle—!"
The golden meteor crashed headlong into the storm of wind blades!
The wind blades sliced through the golden flames surrounding the meteor, unleashing a continuous barrage of energy explosions and shattering sounds.
The vegetable seed cried out urgently, "Cunning Tengu, don't lose to him!"
The cunning tengu, sweating profusely, frantically waved its leaf fan, encouraged by the vegetable seeds, trying to create more wind blades to block the unstoppable charge.
Unexpectedly, the cunning tengu actually broke free of its restraints, roaring as the wind blades swirled together, forming a furious white tornado.
It roared and swallowed the golden meteor.
But it was all in vain!
The golden meteor crushed and shattered the layers of wind blades one by one with overwhelming force.
The speed hardly decreased!
The golden light concentrated at the tip of the scallion rapidly magnified in the cunning tengu's suddenly contracting pupils—
"Clang!!!"
A crisp, resounding sound rang out.
The golden meteor pierced through the final wind blade, and also through the cunning tengu's hastily erected leaf fan defense.
The powerful fighting energy of the surging wave was firmly imprinted on the chest of the cunning tengu!
"Ugh—!"
The cunning tengu was struck by this irresistible force and flew backward at high speed like a tattered sack. Before it even hit the ground, it had already lost all consciousness in mid-air.
The golden light slowly dissipated, and Cong Youbing stood with his spear in hand, his gaze calmly sweeping over his fallen opponent before finally resting his sword before him.
The atmosphere in the audience was electric, with chants of "Midas touch! Midas touch!"
An old man remarked with deep emotion, "Back when I watched the competition in Veil City, I knew that Li Shuwen would amount to something."
"I just didn't expect him to stand out in the dojo rankings so quickly. It seems like he's aiming straight for the championship."
The audience member next to him lit up. "Old man, does that mean you understand Li Shuwen very well?"
"Do you know which Pokémon Li Shuwen has the strongest?"
The old man paused for a moment, "This... judging from the situation at the time, it should be Gallade, that guy's blade is extremely sharp."
"Even Cynthia's Garchomp can break through dragon scales."
On the field, Cai Zhong silently withdrew his cunning tengu and looked at the white knight in the field who seemed like an insurmountable wall.
After a long while, he finally let out a long sigh of relief, a complex yet heartfelt smile on his face: "Overwhelming strength... truly an unforgettable duel."
"Over the years, I have indeed been too lazy. Thank you, Mr. Shuwen, for waking me up."
From easily breaking free from the constraints of supernatural powers, to the brute force of the Meteor Strike to the tactical breakthrough, to the merciless counterattack against the blazing sunlight under clear skies, and finally to the decisive blow that pierced through the wind blade barrier.
Farfetch'd brought this gym ranking tournament to a powerful close with an undisputed victory.
Meanwhile, the performances of Blaziken and Farfetch'd made everyone realize that Li Shuwen, the Midas Touch, was not just a name without substance.
One defeated two opponents, and the other defeated four.
If Li Shuwen is willing to take back the Blaziken, then he can easily get 6 points.
Li Shuwen's connection with Cai Zhong was solely due to their relationship on Misty Island.
Combined with what just happened, this will help Blaziken break through.
That's why they didn't take it back.
Li Shuwen values tangible progress more than a single point in a score.
Li Shuwen's battle quickly spread throughout the Sinnoh region.
I don’t know, I’m scared.
So when they were challenging the gym, Sirfetch'd was just playing along!
When fighting in a gym, Meteor Strike is just as powerful, but it doesn't have the same destructive power as in ranked matches.
After watching the match, if anyone was under the most pressure, it would undoubtedly be Li Shuwen's opponent in the second match.
I have absolutely no idea how to play tomorrow.
