Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

"So, junior brother, you still have a long way to go!"

Bai Yao grinned as she recalled Farfetch'd back into its Poké Ball. She was quite satisfied with the result, as it relieved some of her frustration. The only thing that slightly annoyed her was Lin Xuan's Gallade's battle strategy.

Among the limited number of Pokémon of similar or even stronger strength, most would probably not consider facing Gallade a second time after doing so. It's only because of the counter-strategy of using weapons like Sirfetch'd that it would be difficult to deal with, especially against clumsy Pokémon. They could only slowly wear him down until Gallade used Teleport to deplete its stamina.

However, Bai Yao wasn't the only one who was satisfied; Lin Xuan was too. The most important point was that they had roughly figured out the fighting style of this Onion Soldier.

If I had to summarize it in four words, it would be "bold and unrestrained"!

Every attack was like a full-force attack. It was just a training match where they held back a little. At full strength, Onion Soldier would be even more terrifying. But under these circumstances, they mastered the timing of throwing weapons with great skill, showing both roughness and finesse.

However meticulous it may be, it is still somewhat crude. This fighting method is quite effective against opponents of similar strength, such as Liu Quan's Iron Palm Warrior.

Although that Iron Palm Warrior had invested a lot in agility, it was ultimately an elf that excelled in strength.

However, Lin Xuan also knew that she didn't have enough information at the moment and couldn't be blindly optimistic.

The best way is to find some relevant battle videos to watch. After all, Lin Xuan also learned that Bai Yao was qualified to participate in the Poseidon Cup not only because of her status as the senior sister of Jinhui Dojo, but more importantly, she was the champion of the previous provincial competition in the province where Jinhui City is located!

However, due to time constraints, this was all Lin Xuan could know.

"Yes, yes, yes, I still have a lot to learn from you, senior!"

Lin Xuan followed Bai Yao's words, but Bai Yao wrinkled her nose when she heard it. Hearing the word "senior" reminded her of what Liu Quan had said before, which made her feel uncomfortable. So she really had to drag him out and give him a beating!

"Just call me 'Senior Sister'! Don't keep calling me 'senior' or 'elder sister'~"

Bai Yao waved her hand dismissively and said something, but little did she know that all her thoughts were written all over her face.

"Feels good after beating up my junior, time to go back to the dorm and take a bath~"

Bai Yao stretched and left, while Lin Xuan recalled Gallade into its Poké Ball to let him rest. At the same time, she noticed Cheng Yin walking up to her side.

"What are you thinking?"

Seeing Lin Xuan deep in thought, Cheng Yin couldn't help but ask curiously, "Could it be that you've figured something out, junior?" "No way," she thought, "it's just a battle. Senior's fighting style is too domineering. Even though she and Bai Yao have studied together for so long, they don't know how to deal with it, or what countermeasures they have."

“I was thinking…” Lin Xuan said slowly.

"Uh-huh!"

"Why does the senior's dorm have a bathtub? Is this discrimination?"

Lin Xuan looked up and pointed in the direction Bai Yao had left. Her words kept replaying in his mind. He had never been in a bathtub before! He had heard that taking a bath was very comfortable, but he had never experienced it.

Cheng Yin: ...

I've been waiting for this for so long, and this is what you tell me?

Cheng Yin suddenly had an urge to smash Lin Xuan's head to see what was inside, but she also breathed a sigh of relief. After all, if Lin Xuan really could see through it at a glance, wouldn't that make her seem too useless?

That would be far too tragic.

While speechless, she still explained to Lin Xuan, "Senior Sister has been a formal disciple of Jinhui Martial Arts Academy for a long time. I heard she joined much earlier than Senior Brother Liuquan. This place is practically her second home, so it seems she even renovated her dormitory."

"But that bathtub was actually quite comfortable."

As they were talking, Lin Xuan heard Cheng Yin suddenly utter such a sentence, and then she gave her a strange look.

"How did you know, senior?"

"Of course I've experienced it!"

Cheng Yin and Lin Xuan are both from Yunhai Province, true southerners, and they don't really have the habit of taking baths.

After saying all this, Cheng Yin suddenly remembered the purpose of her meeting with Lin Xuan.

"It's all your fault! I almost forgot, I need to remind you about Senior Sister Bai Yao!"

Chapter 297 Please use the Prayer of Resurrection on the streamer

Because of Lin Xuan's earlier banter, Cheng Yin almost forgot what she was going to say when she came to find Lin Xuan, but fortunately she remembered it in time.

"what?"

Lin Xuan glanced at Cheng Yin with some curiosity. He might not be very interested in anything else, but it was different when it came to Senior Bai Yao. After all, they were still in the research stage and couldn't overlook any details!

"I remember telling you before that if they were to fight, in terms of strength, Senior Sister Bai Yao and Senior Brother Liu Quan would be about 70/30. Moreover, because of the fact that their fighting styles are countered, Senior Brother Liu Quan's Iron Palm Warrior has almost never won against Senior Sister Bai Yao's Onion Soldier."

Bai Yao said this to Lin Xuan, and Lin Xuan nodded in agreement. But what was the problem? Cheng Yin had told him the same thing before, and after this battle, Lin Xuan felt that Cheng Yin was mostly right.

At this moment, Cheng Yin's expression also became serious, and she solemnly reminded Lin Xuan.

"But what I didn't tell you is that this only applies to the one-on-one duel between Cong Youbing and Tie Zhang Lishi. Senior Brother Liu Quan still has room to struggle. If it were a full-scale battle in a normal competition... Senior Brother Liu Quan wouldn't have a chance of winning at all!"

"why?"

Lin Xuan frowned upon hearing this. It wasn't that she doubted the credibility of Cheng Yin's words, but she found it a little unbelievable. Was there really such a big difference in strength between Senior Brother Liu Quan and Senior Sister Bai Yao?

"The main reason is that Senior Brother Liu Quan only has one Iron Palm Warrior that has reached the four-star level, while Senior Sister Bai Yao... has three!!"

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

The next day

"Hiss~ Where's the silly senior we were promised?"

Lin Xuan sat in front of her computer in her dorm room, searching through Bai Yao's recent match videos, and quickly confirmed what Cheng Yin had said.

That's right, Bai Yao does have three four-star Pokémon, which are quite terrifying in strength. Although the remaining two are slightly weaker than Farfetch'd, they are still four-star level after all.

Therefore, Bai Yao's training method is the kind that is very balanced. Although there are some differences between the three strongest main Pokémon, they are not significant.

This is also Lin Xuan's biggest headache. If, during the martial arts tournament, he has made a comprehensive analysis of Senior Sister Bai Yao's Onion Soldier and is trying to implement a counter-tactic, he suddenly pulls out another Pokémon, Lin Xuan will be completely dumbfounded.

In other words, it's not enough for Lin Xuan to find the weakness of the Onion Soldiers; he also needs the remaining two.

Bai Yao's remaining two Pokémon are Heracross and Babu, both of which are very difficult to deal with.

Because the previous provincial competitions were all broadcast live, it was relatively easy for Lin Xuan to find these recordings. However, he directly set his sights on the last few matches, since the last few matches were the most valuable, and Bai Yao could only unleash her full potential when facing stronger opponents.

Then Lin Xuan was surprised to discover something... In the provincial competition, Bai Yao's opponent in the final was actually Liu Quan.

So Jinhui Taekwondo Academy directly swept the championship and runner-up titles in the provincial competition?

Lin Xuan leaned back in his chair. What could he say? He could only say that Jin Hui Dojo's foundation was terrifyingly deep. Even Liu Quan, if he were in Yunhai Province, would have a chance to compete for the championship.

Moreover, Lin Xuan estimated that even Fan Yuanheng, the champion of the Yunhai Provincial Competition who had just met Yunda University, was probably no match for Bai Yao.

Shaking his head, he casually took a sip of the Coca-Cola that Gallade had left there, temporarily banishing these thoughts from his mind. At the same time, watching Bai Yao's battle video on the computer in front of him, an idea came to him…

after an hour

[Resurrection Livestream]

Instead of watching and analyzing these match videos alone, I thought I'd rather do a live stream to prevent people from spreading rumors about me as if I were dead.

It's only been three or four days since the last live stream!

As your own audience, you should get used to all of this... Well, even Lin Xuan felt a little shameless saying that.

【? ? ? 】

What year is it tonight?

[Have you finally remembered you still have a Bilibili account?]

[I can't believe I'll get to see Mimikyu-sensei's live stream again in my lifetime! I'm so touched!]

"Ahem, the streamer won the revival match, so here's a little broadcast~"

Lin Xuan coughed twice and then spoke, but when he remembered that he hadn't streamed or said anything in the fan group these past few days, a large group of people were spreading rumors everywhere. Lin Xuan's face darkened immediately, and he brought up the evidence he had recently collected.

"While the streamer was working hard on the revival match these past two days, some of you, instead of cheering me on and sending me a prayer for revival, were spreading rumors everywhere with your keyboards. This is not just excessive, it's outrageous!"

After saying that, Lin Xuan pulled up a screenshot of what she had seen while browsing Bilibili's updates that morning. The most important thing was that Lin Xuan was quite familiar with the name of the person who posted the update.

"To the friend named 'I love super strength 12138,' I'd like to ask you, what is the meaning of this post you made? 'Many people are concerned about how Mimikyu-sensei is doing. Actually, Mimikyu-sensei has already passed away! Laughing emoji.' Please remember, the internet is now registered with real names. Wait in Shanghai, I'll send you a lawyer's letter sooner or later!"

Most importantly, Song Chen posted this update after chatting with him, and also attached a black and white screenshot of the chat, making it look quite "festive".

Lin Xuan felt that she had to find Song Chen for an offline showdown the next time she went to Shanghai.

【Hahahahaha! 】

[As expected of Brother Super Strength]

[I remember there was a comment from contestant Xiao Zhong under this post, wasn't there?]

Lin Xuan looked at the comments and sneered, then pulled up a second screenshot, which was Zhong Mingyi's comment under Song Chen's post.

"If this kind of rumor-mongering can be tolerated..."

Under Song Chen's post, Zhong Mingyi's comment was: "It is said that he passed away peacefully. Don't worry about him."

What's most infuriating is Song Chen's reply below.

I love super strength 12138: @Zhong Mingyi is a handsome guy, let's clarify some rumors, he passed away in great pain.

"They're already dead, now they won't even let them die a peaceful death?"

Lin Xuan slammed her hand on the table several times.

桌子：HP-1、HP-1、HP-1、HP-1、HP-1……

[In comparison, contestant Xiao Zhong is still quite gentle.]
