Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

However, he will definitely be fully recovered before the team competition. The only pity is that he will miss the individual competition.

It can only be said that there are unlucky guys everywhere, and the Unova team is not the only one. Teams like Carlos, Galar, and even Sakura have all had similar situations.

Some people online even suspected that the Chinese team had secretly bribed the league to be so lucky.

But he was quickly rebuffed.

Lin Xuan fought Captain Carlos first and then Captain Egypt. If he were slightly weaker, he would have gone home immediately. How did he manage to bribe him?

But no matter what, Lin Xuan and his team made it into the main competition without any problems. They ate and chatted at the same time.

Of course, while they were eating, the tables next to them were also occupied, with Lin Xuan and his friends' Pokémon sitting there.

At one table, Eevee, Tiny, and Snorlax were sitting together, and the staff on one side were having trouble serving the food.

Finally, a group of rats on the side came up with a brilliant idea: they created several clones and went to serve the dishes themselves, successfully getting rid of the restaurant staff and leaving them unemployed.

That means Ibrahimovic and his friends can turn this place into a buffet.

Especially after Zhong Mingyi mentioned that the funding came from the League, Snorlax ate without any reservation.

Zhong Mingyi, who was watching from the side, couldn't help but pat Zhang Shouqing on the shoulder.

"What the heck, are you trying to bankrupt the league?"

"What are you afraid of? The league will definitely provide a lot of funding. You can just cover the difference."

"That's true... wait, why am I the one putting it on?"

"You're the captain! You're definitely responsible for us! What if my Snorlax doesn't eat enough and can't beat our opponents in battle?"

Zhong Mingyi felt that Zhang Shouqing had been hanging out with Lin Xuan and his group for too long, which had caused some problems with his thinking.

"Let's all keep up the good work in the upcoming matches and try to make it into the top 32 a few more times."

That's all Zhong Mingyi could say. Even though there's still a mechanism for avoiding opponents from the same country in the knockout stage, it's basically very difficult for Bai Yao and his team to encounter weaker opponents under this mechanism.

Even if it were possible, it would be impossible to encounter them all.

Even if Bai Yao and his team are completely wiped out in the first round, it's not entirely impossible.

After all, those who make it to the top 64 may not necessarily be the strongest 64 people, but they are basically the same.

Therefore, it will be very difficult for Bai Yao and his team to successfully enter the second round.

"It's okay, I've already gotten my money's worth. Even if I'm eliminated outright, it won't bother me at all!"

Bai Yao was quite open-minded. In the team competition, he didn't have many opportunities to play, and it was already quite an achievement to make it into the main competition in the individual competition.

Luck played a significant role as well; even Chu Jingyun and Zhang Shouqing didn't enter with a perfect record.

Zhang Shouqing was one thing, everyone on the Chinese team knew he was holding back, but Chu Jingyun had actually been defeated once.

"IM about the same."

Jiang Quan chimed in, saying that under these circumstances, he became even more transparent, looking exactly like a socially awkward person.

Long Xiao was somewhat similar, but he simply wasn't very talkative; he wasn't as afraid as Jiang Quan. So, after Jiang Quan finished speaking, he shook his head and said:

"We still need to have a little confidence. At least our second team can beat one or two, right?"

Of course, even Long Xiao wouldn't dare to guarantee that. What if they really encountered opponents with such incredible strength?

The official competition will begin in three days, and the schedule will be released tonight.

Therefore, after returning, everyone paid close attention to their opponents.

Lin Xuan seems to have had some luck this time. The Egyptian team has two players who made it to the main competition, one of whom is the Egyptian team captain who surrendered earlier. Lin Xuan will be facing the other player who advanced.

The Egyptian team must be completely bewildered; Lin Xuan is a real jinx! Why do I always run into him?

This time, it was mainly Zhong Mingyi's luck that was just average... but it wasn't too bad either. His opponent was a Galar player, but not the strongest one. Zhong Mingyi should be able to handle him.

Zhang Shouqing's opponent is a player from a small country, and it seems that he is the opponent's only representative. However, Zhang Shouqing may have to perform a trick to help the seedling grow faster.

As for Chu Jingyun's match against Jonar, he was basically eliminated early.

"I!"

Chu Jingyun was about to curse. What the hell was this? Why did he have to encounter such an opponent in the first round?

"A sin!"

Chu Jingyun let out a long howl, then looked at Lin Xuan with bloodshot eyes.

"What are you doing?"

"Didn't you help Cheng Si analyze her opponents before? Why don't you help me too?"

"There's basically no hope. You can choose to play brilliantly or type 'gg'."

It wasn't that Lin Xuan was trying to discourage Chu Jingyun, but rather that Lin Xuan, who had fought against Jonar, knew that Chu Jingyun was no match for him. If Chu Jingyun's chance of winning was 10%, then his opponent's was 99%.

It's unbelievable that Jonar helped Cheng Si make it to the main draw in the Swiss round, and then directly eliminated the even stronger Chu Jingyun in the main draw.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

After hearing Lin Xuan's words, Chu Jingyun knew that he didn't have much of a chance.

Lin Xuan helped Cheng Si research her opponents mainly because she felt that Cheng Si was not without the ability to fight.

Despite suffering heavy losses, the opposing side concealed their strength and ultimately prevailed.

But Chu Jingyun was facing Jonar at his peak, and Lin Xuan felt there was little hope.

As for Bai Yao and Cheng Si on the other side, it seems that their luck ran out in the last round of the Swiss round. Their opponent was the captain of the Indian team, who was also very strong. Cheng Si was probably no match for him.

There is room for struggle, but not much.

Jiang Quan and Long Xiao's opponents were evenly matched, and Lin Xuan couldn't figure out anything either. He would have to study the tactics when he got back.

As for Bai Yao...

"Holy crap! What the hell is your luck?!"

Upon seeing Bai Yao's opponent, Chu Jingyun couldn't help but swear.

There were other contestants in the Swiss round who were in similar situations to Cheng Si, such as the one Bai Yao encountered.

Its own strength is average, and it comes from an ordinary small country.

But it was through sheer luck that he fought his way through the weakest opponents to reach the final round. And then his opponent in the final round... had also been seriously injured before, just not as badly as Cheng Si's opponent.

However, it still greatly affected the battle, and he ultimately won.

This guy is probably the one all the contestants most wanted to meet. He's visibly weak, but Bai Yao just happened to be lucky enough to pick him up.

"Tsk! You can't swear!"

Lin Xuan comforted Chu Jingyun a little, saying that good luck is worse than strength!

That's how it is, at least until we have the strength to win the championship.

"It's okay, there's still the team competition later, that's when the real test of strength will come."

Zhong Mingyi also comforted him, saying that to put it bluntly, Chu Jingyun himself didn't have the strength to win the individual competition, so it wouldn't hurt to watch more team competitions.

In other words, Chu Jingyun was also one of the earliest players in the Chinese team to prepare for the team competition.

"But Bai Yao, your luck... is indeed a bit outrageous."

However, this is also a good thing. In any case, the Chinese team's performance is better, which is good. It's just a bit pitiful for Chu Jingyun, who was eliminated before the second team players.

Lin Xuan's match was on the second day after the main competition began; on the first day, he only watched Bai Yao and some of the others' matches.

First, Bai Yao lived up to expectations and won, and Chu Jingyun and Cheng Si unsurprisingly typed "gg".

Even so, Chu Jingyun managed to forcefully replace Jonar's two Pokémon in the end, and forced out all of Jonar's hidden psychic powers, so he could be considered to have lost with honor.

Cheng Si was in a similar situation, and in the end she only lost by a small margin, which netizens found very forgiving.

As a member of the second team, Cheng Si's ability to fight to this extent against the opposing team, essentially trading one for one, is already quite impressive.

This also suggests that if India were to face China in a team competition, they would most likely be swept aside.

Only Zhang Shouqing and Lin Xuan's match is on the second day. Today's most suspenseful match is between Long Xiao and Jiang Quan.

The final result wasn't too bad; Long Xiao defeated his opponent, but Jiang Quan's opponent seemed to have held back beforehand, resulting in a regrettable defeat.

Ultimately, only five players from the Chinese team remained in the top 32: Lin Xuan, Zhang Shouqing, Zhong Mingyi, Bai Yao, and Long Xiao.

But even at this level, it's already considered very strong. Out of the top 32 in a global competition, securing five spots is already quite impressive.

The next day arrived quickly, and Lin Xuan's match was about to begin.

As for the Egyptian players on the ground, they were already starting to lose their composure.

This time he dared not surrender, mainly because after the captain surrendered before, Chinese netizens couldn't sit still and said that if this situation happened again, they should go directly to Carlos's team.

Then Carlos's fans got upset, saying, "What does this have to do with us?"

Then the two sides started arguing without any trouble. Lin Xuan didn't even sleep well last night, she was just looking for fun.

As for conserving strength, that's the captain's job. I just need to give it my all and try to regain some of the reputation I lost.

Of course, winning is impossible; I just hope to defeat one or two of Lin Xuan's Pokémon.

According to their research, Lin Xuan seems to only have six Pokémon. When facing opponents weaker than himself, he will most likely use the weaker Pokémon to practice.
