Elf: Starts with small diamonds, then mutates into Diancie.

First is Diancie.

It took her less than two months to advance from the early professional level to the mid-level.

Even without Su Hao's assistance, using her full strength is enough to threaten strong opponents in the mid-to-late stages of the Dojo level, and she can even easily win against opponents with good compatibility.

For example: flying dragon, evil dragon, nothingness shadow.

After obtaining the Evolution Key Stone, Su Hao tried having Diancie hold the Diancie Mega Stone while he held the Evolution Key Stone to perform an Evolution.

Unfortunately, the Evolution Keystone activated successfully.

As the system stated, the Diancie Mega Stone could no longer allow Su Hao's Diancie to complete its EVA.

In that case, we can only wait for Diancie to undergo Evolution on her own or create her own Mega Stone.

As for the Blazing Roaring Tiger, I've recently allocated some skill points incorrectly.

The Blazing Roaring Tiger, which electrifies itself every day, has completely transformed into a muscular behemoth, and is no longer as cute as it was during its Littoral days.

His physical strength is no problem to fight against mid-stage professional level enemies, and he can even gain the upper hand against enemies with weaker physical strength.

Besides this, his flames can only currently be fueled by emotional energy, unleashing a power stronger than other Pokémon of the same level.

His physical strength is so formidable.

Milotic's strength has been improving rather slowly lately. The Emerald Warrior Eagle, who joined the team after her, has already reached the Pro level and even obtained the god-tier item, the Silver Feather.

Su Hao plans to focus on Milos's special training after the College Cup, aiming to elevate her to the professional level before she enters university.

She is now well-rounded in all four roles: Warrior, Mage, Tank, and Healer. She can use Dragon Tail and Water Tail moves to fight enemies in melee, as well as withstand damage or use powerful special moves. Her self-healing ability is also exceptional among elite-level characters.

For Doronchi, all he needs to do now is accumulate strength step by step and wait for the moment when he breaks through to the professional level and finally evolves.

Presumably, the true power left behind by Giratina will then be unleashed upon Drakki.

The steel-attribute ointment that Su Hao recently won at the auction in Ice Peak City was ultimately given to Duolongqi.

After being coated on his aircraft nose for a period of time, Doronchi naturally learned the Steel Wing technique, expanding his striking range.

Among Dragon-type Pokémon of the same level, Su Hao felt that Dragapult's current strength was enough to deal with any opponent.

The Emerald Warrior Eagle only needs to properly comprehend the power of the silver feathers within his body, which will allow him to advance smoothly without any obstacles.

Riolu has only been born for a short time. Just follow the steps to improve its basic stats and level, and wait for it to evolve.

At that time, although it will be temporarily impossible to Evolve Diancie, you can try to Evolve it with Lucario.

Su Hao went on a trip in March, and now it's July 3rd.

In about four months, half of the team had become professional-level players, which Su Hao felt was fast enough.

Next, all we need to do is follow the established rules and finish the College Cup, which is already outdated compared to his previous version.

Then, once you've chosen a suitable university, you can say goodbye to high school and enter university to fight alongside a team of professional-level upperclassmen who are not bound by rules!

.................

Su Hao's face showed a hint of sadness as he looked at the two who had finished packing and asked worriedly, "Are you leaving already?"

Jiang Chengcheng's face showed no disappointment at her crushing defeat, only relief.

She put down her suitcase and chuckled, "There's no point in making excuses about being less skilled. But we know very well that you've grown to an incredible level in just a few months."

"We, who feel that we are getting further and further away from you, will not give up on ourselves because of this little setback."

She and Li Hua were indeed powerless against the crystal lamp fire spirit; its flames, seemingly from the depths of the underworld, were like a persistent, intractable disease, difficult to extinguish.

Li Hua, in turn, comforted Su Hao, taking off his glasses and revealing a big smile: "Just keep moving forward, we'll follow you closely!"

Li Hua admitted that they could no longer keep up with Su Hao's pace.

For him, high school was no longer a necessity; it had become a constraint.

After the University Cup ends, Su Hao will enter university ahead of schedule.

We'll definitely meet less often after that.

But your future is a glorious and unknown path.

We will also do our best to follow in your footsteps and climb upwards.

Chapter 279 The Dragon Showdown

"From the singles competition onwards, every opponent is a top performer from all over the country. Each one is a rising star in their respective region, so we must not be careless!"

After seeing off the two who had returned to Yangcheng by plane, team leader Luo Song and analyst Zhao Ci quickly rallied the team again to provide as comprehensive advice as possible for the singles matches.

"On this stage, which is the focus of the whole country and attracts much attention, every contestant will reveal their hidden cards that have never been disclosed before. If you underestimate your opponent and are careless, you may accidentally capsize in the gutter."

"The Beijing Division, Shanghai Division, Changsha Division, Fujian Division, Taiwan Division, Longdu Division, Luoyang Division, and our Sichuan Division."

"From the round of 16 onwards, all matches until the final will be 3v3 singles battles. I wish you all the best in your matches!"

.............

nine in the morning.

At a farmhouse in Changqing City, a white-haired boy of about ten years old was holding a green flower bud and staring intently at the scene on the television.

On the television, the enthusiastic voices of male and female commentators rang out: "At the main arena of the Imperial Capital Phoenix Arena, today's first match will be between Long Ao from the Longdu Division and Su Hao from the Sichuan Division!"

The boy tightened his grip on Hua Beibei's arms slightly and exclaimed excitedly, "It's Brother Su Hao!"

"Before the match begins, please allow me to introduce the two finalists of the University Cup to all the audience members in the stands and those watching on their phones, computers, and televisions!"

"From the Dragon City, renowned as the 'Hometown of Dragons' in the Divine Continent Alliance, comes the favorite to win the championship—[Dragon Knight] Long Ao!"

"The Dragon-type Pokémon in his team are all top performers and elites among their kind. Believing that strength is justice, he wins every battle with an overwhelming presence."

"Currently, none of his opponents have been able to withstand the might of his Dragon Legion for more than ten minutes!"

"His opponent is Su Hao, a contestant from Yangcheng in the Sichuan region, who has recently gained fame and was praised by a passerby surnamed Bai who wished to remain anonymous as having extraordinary talent."

"Each of his Pokémon possesses extraordinary power, making them virtually an army in themselves."

"In a 3v3 singles match between two outstanding young talents, who will the goddess of victory favor?"

"Let's switch the camera to the scene!"

At the Phoenix Arena in the capital, cheers continued to erupt from the stands.

Upon closer listening, all the voices were cheering for Su Hao or Long Ao.

Regardless of age or gender, everyone was waving a support item for a particular player.

If high school competitions are already this intense, then higher-level competitions are likely to be even more frenzied, demonstrating the immense influence of Pokémon battles.

Just like in the animation, the huge screen hanging above the arena suddenly lit up.

The portraits of Su Hao and Long Ao collided first under intense line effects, and then each occupied one side.

The three classic red and white Poké Balls, which remain off, are lit up in an arc.

The Poké Ball at the very front opens, revealing two identical Pokémon heads leaping across it.

Dorronki vs. Dorronki!

Su Hao stood on the right side of the huge battlefield, watching the opponent's Draco with great interest.

Pokémon: Dragapult

Attribute: [Dragon + Ghost]

Gender: Male

Characteristic: [Eternally Pure Body]

Level: [Elite Late Stage]

Interesting. I didn't expect my first opponent to be a member of the same race as Doronchi.

This player named Long Ao arrogantly declared that Su Haoduolongqi's fighting style was utterly unrefined and that his dodging and hiding actions were tarnishing the world-renowned reputation of Dragon-type Pokémon.

Su Hao didn't have any opinion on what he said.

Since you want to see a more aggressive fighting style, I'll grant your wish and also give you a Draco Mesia.

After all, the Draco Messia on the head of an ordinary Draco has no combat power before they break through to the professional level and evolve into Draco Balto.

This opponent seems so resilient; we need to limit Doronic and squeeze him to the limit.

It is good to let Dorgon grow up healthily.

"Dragon Dance!" x2

Both sides issued their orders at almost the same time.

Two Doraki took off from the spot, their flight-ready bodies kicking up a cloud of dust, and in the blink of an eye they were high in the sky.

The enhancements to Dragon Dance were already complete during flight, and the two Dragonki left clearly visible contrails, just like real fighter jets.

Without any trainer's command, both Dragapults used their best close-range moves.
