Pokémon: A Strong Man from the Slums

Chapter 495 Wang Chen VS He Pu

In the early morning of the next day, the Padiya Youth Conference stadium was already bustling with people, and the air was filled with tension and excitement.

The audience gathered in groups of three or five, some were enthusiastically discussing yesterday's exciting match, while others were guessing the direction of today's event. Everyone was looking forward to the upcoming second round of the quarterfinals with great enthusiasm.

Soon, as melodious music sounded, the host walked with steady steps to the center of the battle field.

With a smile on his face, he glanced at the enthusiastic audience and began his opening remarks in a magnetic voice: "Dear audience friends, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting! Today is the second round of the quarterfinals of the Padilla Youth Conference. I'm sure everyone is already impatient now."

The host's words revealed his response to the audience's enthusiasm and his anticipation for the upcoming game.

"Well, without further ado, let us invite the first contestant of the quarter-finals to come on stage. He is from the Kalos region, the chairman of the Zygarde Group, and the envoy of Zygarde - Wang Chen!"

With the host's passionate announcement, the atmosphere on the scene was instantly ignited.

Under the spotlight, a tall, handsome young man in a black suit slowly walked onto the fighting stage. He was the protagonist of today, Wang Chen.

The moment he stepped onto the fighting stage, the cheers from the audience surged like a wave; the applause and screams intertwined to form a thrilling melody.

Wang Chen!!! Wang Chen!!! Wang Chen!!!

The audience's cheers continued one after another, showing Wang Chen's super high popularity among fans.

His appearance not only brought the atmosphere to a climax, but also added a bit of mystery and anticipation to the upcoming game.

Wang Chen stood on the fighting stage, smiling and waving to the audience around him. His confident and calm posture won more applause and cheers.

When the applause and cheers from the audience gradually died down, the atmosphere in the entire venue seemed to freeze in an instant, and everyone's eyes were focused on the fighting stage.

Seeing this, the host picked up the microphone again and announced in a passionate voice: "Let us now welcome Wang Chen's opponent, the strongest trainer of the younger generation from the Galar region - Hupp!"

This time, there was another round of warm applause from the audience. Although it was not as deafening as when Wang Chen appeared, it still expressed support and expectations for Hepp.

Following the host's announcement, a young man who looked ordinary and dressed simply slowly walked onto the battle stage.

He does not have a striking appearance like Wang Chen, but the sharp temperament he exudes makes him stand out in the crowd.

Hepp's steps were steady and powerful, and every step revealed his confidence and determination.

When he stood on the fighting stage, the audience below also gave him warm applause and cheers. Although the enthusiasm was indeed not as high as Wang Chen's, it was enough to show Hepp's status and recognition in the hearts of the audience.

Soon, as the audience's applause and cheers gradually subsided, the entire venue returned to the tense atmosphere before the game.

The host announced at the right time: "Now that both contestants have stood on the battle stage, without further ado, please release your first Pokémon!"

This sentence is like a horn, indicating that the competition is about to officially begin.

Wang Chen and Hepu looked at each other, with imperceptible sparks in each other's eyes. They knew that the real contest was about to begin.

Following the host's announcement, Wang Chen and Hep stretched out their hands almost at the same time and each took out their own Poké Ball.

Their eyes were full of concentration and determination, as if the whole world had stopped at this moment.

As the Poké Ball was thrown into the air, two rays of light burst out instantly, and Wang Chen's "King Dragon Scorpion" and Hep's "Booming Kong Ape" appeared on the battlefield at the same time, each occupying one side and confronting each other fiercely.

At this moment, the entire venue seemed to be silent, and all eyes were focused on these two elves, looking forward to the exciting duel that was about to take place.

After these two elves appeared, there was a heated discussion in the audience.

"The attributes of the King Kong Ape are restrained by the Dragon King Scorpion, and judging from the momentum, Wang Chen's Dragon King Scorpion should also be stronger in terms of hard power, so I am optimistic that Wang Chen will win this battle."

Some people analyzed that from the perspective of attribute restraint, they believed that the King Kong Ape was at a clear disadvantage.

"I also think Wang Chen can win. I just searched carefully and couldn't think of how the King Kong Ape would fight back."

Another person echoed, his words filled with concern for the situation of the Booming Kong Ape.

However, some viewers maintained a rational and cautious attitude: "Don't be too confident. The outcome of the game still depends on the specific operations of the trainers and Pokémon on both sides. Let's talk about it after the winner is decided."

They reminded everyone that the outcome of a game is often full of variables, and no one can determine the winner until the last moment.

Amid the discussions of the audience, the battle between the King Scorpion and the King Kong Ape officially began.

"Dragon King Scorpion, we have already reached the quarterfinals. From now on, we have to try our best in every game, so quickly use the Cross Poison Blade to kill that King Kong Ape!"

Wang Chen's words revealed coldness and disdain, and he was full of confidence in victory.

The King Scorpion responded loudly, raised its huge pincers, and quickly charged towards the King Kong Ape at a speed that was astonishing.

"Hit the King Kong Ape, try your best to fight with the Dragon King Scorpion, don't get hit by it, especially don't get hit in the vital parts!"

There was urgency in Hepp's voice as he tried to turn the unfavorable situation around through command.

The King Kong Ape followed Hep's orders and began to try to avoid the King Scorpion's attacks while looking for opportunities to counterattack.

However, it turned out that all this seemed to be in vain.

Wang Chen's King Dragon Scorpion has a clear advantage in hard power and poses a great threat to the King Kong Ape.

In just less than fifteen seconds, the "Cross Poison Blade" skill of the Dragon King Scorpion accurately hit the vital points of the King Kong Ape, triggering the sniper characteristics, and the damage instantly reached an astonishing level.

After this attack, the King Kong Ape could no longer hold on and fell to the ground unconscious, losing his ability to fight. The scene was filled with silence.

At this moment, the entire venue seemed to be shaken. The audience was shocked by this quick battle. Many people gasped after seeing the power of the King Scorpion.
