"Little Zi! Are you trying to kill someone?!"
Seeing so many Pokémon, Zhenzi was extremely nervous.
"Kill someone? Don't worry, I'm not that foolish. I won't kill him in public, I'll just beat him into a vegetative state. Heh heh."
Little Zi covered his continuously bleeding nose.
"Brother Zi, turning him into a vegetable is too good for him."
A young man suddenly sneered, "He's good-looking. You know what our Cang'ai family does. Let him be a male actor for our family, pair him with those ugly and old women. Heh heh heh."
"Heh, sending him to your Cang'ai family is worse than sending him to our Boda family. I want to tailor-make him for a group of burly men. Heh heh."
Another young man smirked.
"You!! Shameless!!!"
Zhenzi wanted to say more but saw Ye Feng's hand reach for the Poké Ball at his waist.
He also said to her, "Alright, Zhenzi, you stand behind me. Leave the rest to me."
"Ye Feng, I know you're strong, but no matter how strong you are, even if you were a Champion, being ganged up on by dozens of Pokémon, he could only escape!!"
Zhenzi felt Ye Feng was pretending to be brave.
After all, no matter how strong you are, you can't possibly have one Pokémon take on a crowd!!
Ye Feng, however, smiled.
He didn't explain, pulling Zhenzi behind him with one hand, and summoning the Red-Striped Pikachu with the other.
As soon as the Red-Striped Pikachu appeared.
It saw dozens of Pokémon in front of it.
It immediately started drooling.
The last time it had a big meal was in the Safari Zone.
It hadn't eaten in a long time.
Ye Feng summoning it now, was it a moment of conscience, letting it come out for a feast?
So it turned its head to look at Ye Feng and used the language only Pokémon could understand:
'Master, are these all for me to eat?'
Ye Feng raised an eyebrow and shook his head.
Pikachu was very disappointed.
Little Zi and the others naturally had no idea what Ye Feng and the Red-Striped Pikachu were up to.
But the Pokémon they summoned could understand what Pikachu was saying!!
They looked at the small Pikachu in astonishment.
Did they hear correctly?
Eat them?
"Ye Feng, don't blame us for not giving you a chance. Release all your Pokémon!"
Ye Feng ignored Little Zi and commanded the Red-Striped Pikachu:
"Just end it with a Thunderbolt."
The Red-Striped Pikachu accepted the order, turned its head, and unleashed a Thunderbolt.
Little Zi and the others also commanded their Pokémon to use their moves!
"Charmeleon! Use Flamethrower!"
"Bulbasaur! Razor Leaf!"
"Vileplume! Solar Beam!"
"Arcanine! Fire Blast...!!"
Instantly.
Dozens of skills of different attributes collided with the Thunderbolt unleashed by Pikachu.
A fierce explosion occurred.
The explosion caused countless black smoke to billow out, instantly spreading for hundreds of meters.
Everyone could not see what was happening in the arena.
But what could be heard.
Were many screams!!
When the black smoke dissipated.
Everyone looked towards the arena.
On the ground, a pile of fainted Pokémon lay scattered about.
Upon a quick glance, it seemed like nothing, but upon closer inspection, they found that out of dozens of Pokémon, there seemed to be fewer now.
Where had they gone?
But due to the chaos at the scene, no one paid attention to that.
And their masters.
Suffered the same fate.
One by one, they were scorched black, with smoke billowing from their mouths.
But the most miserable was the one called Little Zi.
His purple hair was burnt off.
He was hung on a tree by himself, his clothes stripped, his body blackened from being electrocuted.
Besides him, there were two other youths who suffered the same fate.
One seemed to be from the Cang'ai family, the other from the Boda family.
The three of them were hung on the tree, unconscious...
Xiao Li was stunned.
The Qipao beauty was also stunned.
The surrounding crowd was even more so.
And the reporters who were secretly filming rubbed their eyes in disbelief.
They searched for the handsome figure.
But after a long search, Ye Feng and Zhenzi were nowhere to be seen.
...
Coffee shop.
A quiet private room.
Ye Feng leaned back in his seat, gazing out the window like an exquisite sculpture.
"Ye, Ye Feng."
Zhenzi still couldn't believe what she had just witnessed.
One Pikachu, with a single Thunderbolt, defeated dozens of Pokémon.
With such strength, perhaps even a Champion couldn't compare?
"If you want to ask how I became so strong, then I have to tell you, it's all because I trained them."
Ye Feng turned his head and smiled at her.
Zhenzi remained silent, who would believe that. But she still said, "By the way, Ye Feng, you have to be careful. You've offended so many people this time, and they are not ordinary people. They are all scions of wealthy families. They will surely seek revenge when they recover."
"Oh."
Ye Feng was very indifferent.
At this moment, Zhenzi thought of something.
She flipped her hair and smiled, "Ye Feng, if you're afraid of their revenge, you can join my family. As long as you join my family, they won't dare to touch you."
Ye Feng said, "Then if I join your family, will you wear a Qipao for me?"
His sudden remark made Zhenzi blush.
Zhenzi inadvertently recalled that when the Qipao beauty fell, Ye Feng had been staring at her fair thighs.
This made her blush even more.
"Alright, I need to go back and rest. I have a competition tomorrow."
Ye Feng stood up, about to leave the coffee shop.
"Ye Feng! I'm not joking! You must have received many invitations from prominent families or corporations, right? I hope you'll consider our family!!"
"We'll see."
Ye Feng waved his hand and left with a flourish.
Zhenzi watched Ye Feng leave, sitting in the private room, dazed, and for some reason, suddenly started to smile foolishly with happiness.
...
The next day.
This was the fourth round of the Indigo Plateau Conference. Only by winning could they advance to the main venue competition, which was the top 16.
As long as they could advance, they would receive more recruitment and better treatment from prominent families and corporations.
There were a total of four sub-venues, and Ye Feng had already visited three. This last one was naturally the Rock Venue.
Rock Venue.
A huge rocky arena was situated in the center of the venue. The dust from the earth gave it a sense of solidity.
Today, eight people were assigned here.
That is, four matches.
Ye Feng was scheduled for the fourth match, the last one.
As the main event.
And Xiao Mao, whom Ye Feng knew, was also at this venue for the fourth round.
However, he was scheduled for the second match.
Although Xiao Mao's current popularity did not compare to Ye Feng's, as Professor Oak's grandson, he was also a strong contender for the championship.
This arrangement was to ensure viewership, audience interest, and watchability.
As for Xiao Zhi, his fourth round was at the Grass Venue.
The Rock Venue was bustling with activity.
As usual.
Cameras were pointed at the rocky arena, ready to broadcast the upcoming fierce battle.
Ye Feng stood on the contestant's platform, leaning against the railing, looking ahead.
Humans are strange creatures.
When someone is secretly watching you, you can always feel it.
Ye Feng felt someone was secretly watching him.
Of course, not the audience.
These people were very close to him.
It was...
Xiao Mao and the other seven contestants, excluding himself.
