Zhao Yan's hands were trembling continuously, his lungs about to explode with anger.
He glanced at Yang Han, his heart bleeding...
As Bai Qi walked back blankly, Zhao Yan hesitated, then patted him on the shoulder, not saying much.
Eevee directly and head-on defeated the Fire Vortex technique, its power exaggeratedly large, not at all like Quick Attack; even a Tackle couldn't compare.
He didn't know how Fang Yuan had trained it, but that wasn't what he should be considering right now...
"A Ming, you go."
Zhao Yan gritted his teeth, sending out the last of the four vice-captain candidates.
"Okay..." Feng Ziming's scalp tingled. After seeing Eevee display its might and instantly kill Magmar, he really didn't want to fight Fang Yuan, but now he had no choice but to bite the bullet and go.
As Feng Ziming entered the battlefield, Zhao Yan quietly left the contestant area.
...
"Something up?"
Yang Han, having been secretly called to the Gym's corridor by Zhao Yan, said with a smile.
"Old Yang, if this continues, the exchange match can't go on," Zhao Yan said. "The so-called exchange match is about friendship first, competition second."
"This Fang Yuan... his strength has already exceeded the scope of a Rookie Trainer; the match simply can't continue."
"Oh? Why can't it continue? I see Eevee is almost out of stamina..."
As Yang Han's words fell, Zhao Yan pointed angrily at the Eevee on the battlefield, which had suddenly become lively and energetic again, and said, "This is what you call out of stamina?"
"I say... the purpose of the exchange match is to encourage and spur on the students. I think it's almost achieved its purpose now. Both sides have realized that there is always someone better, and they will definitely be more serious in preparing for the Provincial League next. So, I think that's about it, right?" Zhao Yan whispered:
"I'll call a stop in a moment, a five-minute halftime break. You talk to Fang Yuan and see if he'll come off the field, how about that?"
"Otherwise, if they lose too badly, those School Team leaders will definitely complain to me again. I just want some peace and quiet."
"This time, I'll consider it my loss."
"You're admitting defeat? Hahaha." Yang Han couldn't help but laugh. "But Fang Yuan still has energy to spare, so it's not easy for me to speak up..."
"A Water Stone," Zhao Yan said.
"Hmm..."
"Can't go any higher."
"Then I'll consider it," Yang Han said.
...
Yang Han returned to his seat, only to see that Eevee had already sent its opponent flying.
So far, Peaceful City First High School's participating contestants had eight remaining, while Wuzhou First High School had five.
Fang Yuan had directly completed a one-versus-five, pulling back the advantage in the score.
After five consecutive defeats, Zhao Yan "calmly" allowed everyone to take a five-minute break. During this time, Fang Yuan was called back to the contestant area.
"How much stamina does Eevee have left?" Yang Han asked as he came down.
"A sliver…" Fang Yuan said.
"Be serious."
"I'm really only left with a sliver." Fang Yuan said helplessly, "It has already fought five battles, ah. I estimate it will be difficult to complete the feat of defeating ten opponents in a row. The other side's strength is a little bit stronger than I imagined."
"You…" Yang Han felt stifled. So you really wanted to defeat ten opponents in a row.
The opponents are the main force of Wuzhou First High School, yet they are only a little bit stronger than you imagined?
"Huff… The five people who fought you earlier should be the five strongest members of Wuzhou First High School. The strength gap between the remaining School Team members and them will definitely be very large, so… since Eevee has no stamina left, you should come down in the next match. There's no need to force yourself."
"After all, this is an exchange match. Leave people a way out, and you can meet again in the future. Moreover, Lin Jing, Liu Le, and the others also have to play, otherwise they would have come for nothing."
"Okay." Fang Yuan nodded.
Actually… although Eevee doesn't have much stamina left, there are still ways to continue winning.
Relying on Emotional Energy, a sliver of health can lead to a counter-kill, also known as a power-up.
Payback might not be easy to execute, but to prevent accidents, Fang Yuan also brought Eevee's two Phones.
If he smashes one after another later, maybe he can defeat the remaining opponents.
However… the price would be too great.
Fang Yuan couldn't even imagine what Eevee would look like after transforming into "Super Saiyan Eevee" due to excessive anger.
"Then about the Shadow Ball and Reflect…"
Yang Han said, "I will help you gather the resources. In addition, I will give you an extra reward."
The Water Stone that Zhao Yan used to bribe him, although rare, was useless to Yang Han.
He planned to sell it and exchange it for other resources to give to Fang Yuan. After all, this could be considered something Fang Yuan earned.
"Eh." Fang Yuan was curious.
…
Five minutes passed quickly.
Under the Referee's instructions, Fang Yuan and a girl from Wuzhou First High School stood on the battlefield. The next battle was about to begin.
The girl was slightly apprehensive and not very confident in herself, but the result was beyond her expectations.
"A… a draw?!"
The sound of Eevee swaying and falling to the ground after defeating its opponent stimulated the girl's senses.
Finally… she had worn this guy down with a series of battles.
Eevee losing its ability to fight also made the students of Wuzhou First High School breathe a sigh of relief.
"Damn… this Eevee has finally fallen!"
"I'll never believe the harmlessness of cute pets again."
"If anyone tells me Eevee is useless without evolving in the future, I'll beat them to death!"
The five strongest members of the Wuzhou First High School Team were defeated by the same person. This time, Fang Yuan will definitely become a shadow in the hearts of the Rookie Trainers of Wuzhou First High School.
"I'm back."
Fang Yuan completed the task and walked back to the bench. At this time, Lin Jing and Liu Le looked at him suspiciously. They always felt that Fang Yuan still had the ability to continue fighting.
Eevee's acting skills were too realistic, and now even Lin Jing and Liu Le couldn't tell whether Eevee had really lost its ability to fight.
Besides Lin Jing and Liu Le, everyone else's eyes were shining. Eevee, one against five, was simply too cool.
"Okay, Jiang Liang, you go next."
"Fang Yuan, your Eevee has consumed too much stamina. I'll take you to their infirmary to take a look."
Yang Han coughed, casually called a School Team member to come on stage again, interrupting their worship of Fang Yuan, and then said.
Being able to vent his anger in front of his old rival, Yang Han can be said to be in a comfortable mood. Fang Yuan's performance made him very satisfied. In these few battles, the strength and quality shown by Eevee have approached the regular first-string Pokémon of ordinary universities' School Teams. If Fang Yuan had a better background, he wouldn't be so surprised...
On the way to the infirmary, Yang Han said, "Besides the training resources for Shadow Ball and Reflect, what else do you want?"
"Given your performance, I can let you choose an extra reward yourself."
"What do I want?"
Fang Yuan was stunned.
He thought about it. The training resources for Shadow Ball and Reflect were already enough for him to digest for a while. Besides these, he certainly wanted money the most, but... besides money, there were more important things.
"Brother Yang, can I get the qualification to capture a second Pokémon in advance through the Peaceful City Trainer Association?"
Magnemite's talent is Outstanding, and it is also related to the production of Energy Cubes. Letting it be registered under Father's company is not a long-term solution after all. As time goes by, changes will inevitably occur. Fang Yuan thought about it. If he could go through the back door and obtain the qualification to capture a second or even a third Pokémon in advance, then these problems would be solved.
Anyway, the ones who control these are the Trainer Association. If the local Association management nods, there should be no problem in theory.
As Fang Yuan's words fell, Yang Han showed a surprised expression: "You want to capture a second Pokémon so early?"
