Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

After saying that, he opened the door, pushed Bai Yao out, slammed the door shut, and finally let out a long sigh of relief.

"Phew~ I almost died~"

Lin Xuan wiped the sweat from his brow. He had just remembered the teacher tapping him from time to time and wanted to try it out. It was only because Bai Yao was stunned for a moment that he was able to tear Lin Xuan to pieces.

As for Bai Yao at this moment, she had already heard the sound of Lin Xuan's door closing by the time she realized what was happening.

"Lin Xuan! Open the door if you dare!"

Lin Xuan snapped his fingers inside the room. Ibu rolled his eyes at him, but quickly used his superpowers to cover the room, directly blocking out outside sounds.

If I can't hear you, it means you don't have it. Sorry.

After doing all this, Lin Xuan took out the video of Zhong Mingyi and the others' match that morning and watched it. As for Areta—

We've basically done all the research on this guy, so there's no need to cram now.

As for training—the match is tomorrow, so it's best to let Ibrahimovic and the others get some rest. It would be bad if they got injured and it affected their performance.

Lin Xuan and Xiao Dian have also experienced injuries during training.

After all, they are trained in extremely high-level skills, and they could easily get injured if they are not careful.

Let's forget about it and focus on studying tactics today.

However, after watching the video of Slowking versus Magearna twice, Lin Xuan also frowned.

There's absolutely nothing to see here!

To be fair, Slowking has some psychic skills that Eevee could learn from.

Concentrating all superpowers into one point, breaking through the surface at that point, is something that ordinary Pokémon can't do.

On the other hand, Magiana's attack was completely devoid of any fancy moves; it was just a simple Magic Flash followed by a Flower Cannon.

There's not much to say; it simply overwhelmed Slowking in terms of power.

It wasn't like the time Slowking wanted a few Arrancar. His tactics were good, and his execution was excellent, but Slowking's Magical Glitter was no joke!

Even when dispersed, it was as strong as a steel plate, something that Slowking's psychic powers couldn't penetrate.

"Aaaaaah! What do I do! Little one, can you even beat me?"

Lin Xuan glanced at Xiao Dian, who was also sitting next to her. The little guy swallowed hard, which was unusual for him. Then he took out a Shu tree fruit from somewhere and started eating it, as if he was avoiding Lin Xuan's question.

"Hey! Stop eating!"

"Dandan~"

After finally eating the tree fruit, Little Dot could only shrug – he wasn't confident, because even Little Dot's Little Dot didn't know just how strong he really was.

When was the last time Xiaodian and Lin Xuan truly used their full strength? It should have been during their last battle against Karuni, but even then, Lin Xuan and Xiaodian were still somewhat hesitant.

Since it's impossible to use all your strength at once, you need to conserve your energy for escaping.

It's probably only in battles like this that Lin Xuan and his team can unleash their full power.

Give it your all, without reservation.

"However, this guy is not without opportunities to be used. He is very slow and can't even catch up with the enhanced Slowking."

Lin Xuan stroked his chin and said, "That is something worth using."

Slowking's speed is something those who know, understand.

Even with six enhancements, it's not actually that much faster, but Magearna can't even match Slowking's speed. If Mind uses Electric Engine once, it should be able to surpass it.

If this can be utilized effectively, it will definitely be of great benefit to small businesses.

It's a pity that Lin Xuan's team doesn't have a suitable Pokémon to take over like Zhong Mingyi's team.

Ibrahimovic can learn that. In a previous game, he used the Nine-Colored Rise to gather at the top and then pass the baton, which was a very strong tactic.

But that won't work now. Eevee hasn't mastered this Z-Move at all, and even if they use Baton Pass, the benefit won't be high. Lin Xuan thinks it might be better to use a Nine-Colored Rising Nuclear Bomb.

However, the specific outcome will depend on the situation in the subsequent matches. At least Ibrahimovic has mastered the baton-passing skill in the short period of intensive training, and he can use it in crucial moments.

Chapter 617 was seen naked.

Even though the match was slightly delayed, the next day arrived quickly.

Lin Xuan stood formally on the battlefield facing Areta.

In Lin Xuan's view, this should be her strongest opponent besides Magiana.

Judging from his previous performance, he might not be weaker than Zhong Mingyi. If they were to fight, Lin Xuan thought it would most likely be a 50/50 situation.

“I’ve heard my brother mention you. He seemed quite surprised and a little disappointed when he found out you were participating in this year’s World Championships. After all, you’re the same generation, and we old guys are at least two or three years older than you.”

Areta said to Lin Xuan with a smile, but it is true that it would be difficult to find someone younger than Lin Xuan in this World Championship schedule.

Because of the age restriction, almost all trainers participating in battles are around the age limit, and generally speaking, these trainers are stronger.

But Lin Xuan was an exception; his rise to power was too fast, faster than anyone else had anticipated.

As for Lin Xuan, he already knew that Areta was Crowley's brother, so he greeted him with a smile as well.

"I may need to visit your company again after the competition ends."

This was something Lin Xuan had discussed with the chairman and the others beforehand: after the competition, they could visit Dawn Group, owned by Areta's family.

Upon hearing this, Areta's smile widened. After all, although Lin Xuan had agreed before, it was vague and the time was not specified.

The problems of the Dawn Group have not been fully resolved to this day.

It would be best if Lin Xuan were willing to lend a hand.

"Thank you very much, but I won't hold back in this battle."

"me too."

It should be said that if facing a player like Irelia, the chances of winning in an individual match are greater, because Magiana's strength is difficult to demonstrate in a one-on-one fight. However, in a team match, not only do the players participate under the name of a team, but even the battles are team battles.

It's like throwing out six Pokémon for a battle, and that's when Magearna's terrifying power will be revealed.

In other words, other teams are at a tactical disadvantage when facing Carlos's team.

Do you think Irene will be the first player to start?

If they really start, but you put a relatively weak player in, their Soul Heart can stack up to six layers, and then they might really be unstoppable.

But if we send out a strong player... for example, when facing the Chinese team, if Lin Xuan is the first to play, but the opponent doesn't have Irene on the field.

The Chinese team would be at a disadvantage. Even Ibrahimovic and his teammates couldn't possibly clear the game without taking any damage; they would still need to expend some energy.

Even those players who knew they couldn't defeat Lin Xuan would try every means to wear down Ibu and the others' stamina.

These are all tactical considerations, and Carlos' team naturally has an advantage in this regard.

They won't lose money no matter what, but they might make a mistake if they're not careful.

Refocusing attention on Areta, this guy, like Lin Xuan, is not a trainer specializing in a single type.

Lin Xuan also discovered a pattern: although there are many top trainers who specialize in one type, the very top ones—such as Lin Xuan, Zhong Mingyi, and the one in front of him, Areta—are actually all-type trainers.

Zhang Shouqing is another example; both are trainers with all attributes.

When facing Lin Xuan, Areta's lips curled into a slight smile.

Because in this battle—he had prepared a surprise for Lin Xuan!

There was no other way; Lin Xuan was very strong, and he couldn't possibly hold back against such an opponent.

However, this would expose the opponent prematurely, even if they won the battle, causing them to lose the first move opportunity when facing Magearna later.

However, even if that move is seen—it shouldn't be completely understood. In addition, the interval between the two battles is too short, so there should still be quite a few opportunities.

However, the most urgent task at present is to defeat Lin Xuan.

Areta's first Pokémon was Espeon, just like Crowley's previous Pokémon. Lin Xuan remembered that Crowley had also sent out an Espeon when they battled before.

However, the strength of that Espeon is basically no match for that one from Areta.

As for Lin Xuan's team, they were all from the same family, so they didn't exactly hold back and just fought normally.

Upon seeing this Espeon, Lin Xuan realized that, aside from top-tier combat strength, he still lagged behind trainers like Areta.

This Espeon is definitely stronger than any other rat, so it all depends on Lin Xuan's performance.

Lin Xuan suspected that this Espeon must have been bred a long time ago, and that it wasn't even initially intended to evolve into an Espeon, otherwise it would have been difficult to achieve such a breakthrough in such a short time.

Areta directly answered Lin Xuan's question.

"Although this child has amazing psychic talent, which surprised us all, the research on Espeon hadn't been successful yet at that time. I originally wanted to evolve into Flareon. I have to thank your research institute, otherwise Espeon's talent might have been wasted."

Areta said with some emotion, "Essentimental talent, even if it can't compare to Lin Xuan's, is still quite strong, belonging to the type that is one in a million."

If he really evolves ahead of schedule, he might regret it a lot when the results for Espeon are announced.

Fortunately, the evolution time was delayed to lay the foundation for Eevee, which now seems just right.

"It's just this Eevee's talent."

Lin Xuan didn't dare to claim any credit, but the battle between Espeon and a family of rats was about to begin!

"Su Su?"
