I've seen many people raising wives, but this is the first time I've seen someone raising

Lucario, sensing the ridicule, spoke with a dark face.

As he finished speaking, an evolving white light enveloped his body.

In the light, Lucario's posture gradually became taller.

When the light faded, Mega Lucario, which had appeared once before, appeared again in the air.

The second time Lucario appeared in this form, the audience cheered loudly.

The super evolution that takes into account both appearance and strength is obviously quite popular.

Seeing this, Land Shark made a disdainful sound.

The reason why he was able to gain the advantage in the fight was not just because of his strength.

What is more correct is his experience in fighting in many battles.

Unless Lucario can crush him after Mega Evolving, the result won't change.

Thinking of this, as a new round of orders from Shirona arrived, he continued to launch his offensive in an orderly manner.

As expected, Lucario gradually looked a little tired from the constant digging and drilling attacks.

Despite Xia Mu's command, Land Shark was also hit and suffered a lot of injuries.

But anyone can see that Lucario's situation is more critical.

And the most important thing is...there are holes of all sizes on the field.

There are fewer and fewer places for Lucario to stay.

"It looks like the champion of this competition will soon be decided."

On the side, the leader of the King Kong tribe, one of the referees, said happily.

Fortunately, the champion was a free contestant.

If Xia Mu, a member of the Pearl Tribe, really wins, he will be inferior to Xia Mu whenever the two tribes meet in the future.

Chapter 179: Is it okay to expose Zoroark?

Hearing the voice of the leader of the King Kong tribe, the leader gritted his teeth in dissatisfaction.

How could he not know what the other person was thinking?

All the favorites to win the championship for the King Kong tribe were defeated by the little girl named Shirona.

The other party is now hoping that Xia Mu will be kicked off the championship throne like those before him.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel helpless.

The battle on the field is not optimistic at the moment, and it is possible that it will proceed as the opponent plans.

What a pity, the championship was just one step away from going to the Pearl Tribe.

On the side, Xia Mu didn't know what the leader was thinking.

He was now debating whether or not to ask Lucario to call it quits.

If the fight continues as it is now, Lucario will definitely lose.

And the longer the time goes on, the more holes there will be on the field, and the greater the impact on subsequent battles will be.

only...

Xia Mu was not sure whether Zoroark was willing to play now. After all, judging from the results, Lucario had not lost his combat effectiveness.

Behind him, Zoroark, who had been watching the battle, seemed to have guessed what Xia Mu was struggling with.

She sighed, feeling a little depressed.

Lucario is so disappointing, it's basically a foregone conclusion that she'll be on the field today.

In that case, it’s better to go on stage earlier!

Just consider it as a little surprise for Xia Mu.

Thinking of this, Zoroark took a deep breath, patted Xia Mu's shoulder gently, and muttered in a low voice:

"Call Lucario down."

"I...I'll do it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zoroark felt his body go numb.

The heart in her body was pounding so hard that she could even hear her own heartbeat.

She had never thought that one day she would actually ask to go on stage.

Xia Mu was pleasantly surprised when he heard Zoroark's voice.

As expected, Zoroark is still as considerate as ever, and this has not changed since he was a child.

"Lucario, come back first."

Rubbing the fur behind him, Xia Mu shouted loudly to Lucario on the field.

Hearing this, Lucario immediately knew that Zoroark was about to take the field.

Although he felt somewhat unwilling, he still took a few steps back and ran towards Xia Mu, and obediently left the venue.

Before leaving the stage, he glared at the smug Land Shark.

You can't catch this fish-like earth dragon, but Zoroark's illusion doesn't care about that.

If she doesn't trick Land Shark into confusion, she would be unworthy of her reputation as a ferocious beast.

Thinking of this, Lucario felt much better.

This was the first time he had any expectations for Zoroark.

As Lucario pulled it off, the leader who was in charge of the referee sighed silently.

"Contestant Xia Mu, are you ready to surrender?"

He looked at Xia Mu and asked for help.

In his opinion, removing his only Pokémon that could fight from the stage was undoubtedly a sign of surrender.

What surprised him was that Xia Mu actually shook his head after hearing this.

"No, just a normal replacement Pokémon."

"Replacement Pokémon?"

Several question marks popped up on the leader’s forehead.

But before he could understand this sentence, he felt a sudden gust of wind blowing in front of him.

It was as if something had suddenly and quickly run away from his sight.

The next moment, the Land Shark, which had been standing steadily, suddenly swung out its dragon claws.

The dragon claw seemed to collide with something invisible in the air.

Along with the sharp impact sound, it also created layers of air waves.

Then, after another counterattack, the Land Shark turned around, and seemed to be preparing to use the same trick again and drill back into the ground.

only...

"Boom-"

This time she dived into the hard ground where there was no hole.

The crisp sound of the head hitting the ground reminded many people of the time when they were opening coconuts at the beach.

Even though it has ground attributes, it still needs claws to dig holes.

After slamming its head against the ground, Garchomp's eyes turned black and his head began to buzz.

From his perspective, he was clearly rushing down towards the hole he had dug earlier.

When he opened his eyes again, the ground suddenly turned into hard ground, almost knocking him unconscious on the spot.

On the other side, Zoroark finally couldn't maintain the illusion wrapped around himself.

A fox with a completely gray body and bright red highlights in its fur appeared in the center of the venue.

A faint red light emanated from her eyes. Even at noon, many people still unconsciously felt a chill.

Undoubtedly, she was the culprit who caused Lu Shark to suffer a great loss just now.

"This is my second Pokémon, Zoroark."

Xia Mu explained softly at the right time.

The moment the words fell, there was a commotion all around.

Except for a few people who knew about it, no one expected that a second Pokémon would appear.

Zoroark looked fierce on the outside, but he was actually standing there nervously.

What made her feel a little relieved was that, apart from the occasional words like "ferocious beast" or "disaster beast", most people seemed to welcome her appearance.

The two tribes' attitude towards her was not as resistant as she had imagined.

Thinking of Xia Mu, she felt more confident.

She stood up straight and looked at the Liexiao Lu Shark who had already climbed up with an unhappy look on his face, and she grinned slightly, showing her canine teeth.

She was still somewhat uncomfortable with the feeling of being exposed to the public.

So...her main goal now is to defeat Garchomp as quickly as possible.

The almost materialized resentment spread to the vicinity of Garchomp, making her feel a little chilly.

She glanced back and found that her trainer, Sirona, was also lost in thought.

To deal with Zoroark's illusion, super powers and evil attributes are both good choices.

But unfortunately, they don't have Pokémon of both attributes.

"Zoroark, sneak attack."

Coincidentally, at this time, Xia Mu's order had also been conveyed.

Hearing this, Zoroark, who was ready to attack, instantly melted into the darkness.

Faintly, Land Shark felt a chill coming from the back of his neck.

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

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

Helplessly taking back the Garchomp that had lost its combat effectiveness, Shirona sighed.

Despite a desperate fight, Tyrannosaurus was unsurprisingly defeated.

Although I feel a little disappointed, this is also expected.

According to the tests she had conducted with Xia Mu in the past few days, the Zoroark in the Xi Cui region was likely to have general attributes plus ghost attributes.

This combination of attributes has only one weakness: the evil attribute.

Coupled with his superb illusion skills and agile body, it would be hard for Land Shark not to lose.

but...

Is it okay for Xia Mu to expose Zoroark in such a closed place in ancient times?

Sirona looked over with some concern.
