Though the preparation zones of various nations were bustling just moments ago, this time, there was a rare occurrence—no nation took the initiative to challenge the arena.
"..."
As soon as this situation arose, the vast majority of Trainers were left speechless.
Absurd!
Could the fifth match of the arena really end this way?
Had Doctor Fang Yuan's performance in the past four matches reached the level where just revealing his Pokémon deterred others from challenging him?!
With the grand prize being Legendary Resources, and the opponents not having fully demonstrated their strength, for there to be no one daring to challenge under these circumstances was somewhat fantastical. Yet at this moment, the preparation zones of the various nations surprisingly reached a consensus, with absolutely no one stepping up to challenge.
One can only imagine the deterrence that Fang Yuan commanded at this point.
"Fuwu~~~~"
Faced with this situation, Milotic frowned, clearly displeased.
Its teammates had all showcased the results of their training, and it wanted to as well!
"No one is coming??"
Fang Yuan was also quite surprised. This was tricky.
Aside from wanting to win back several resources for the Hua Nation Association, his participation in the God Battles was also for the purpose of validating the training outcomes of his Pokémon and increasing Victini's strength. Without an opponent, two of his three goals would be invalidated.
"So beautiful... I really want to see it in battle."
However, at this moment, a Pokémon slowly spoke up.
It wasn't a Pokémon that liked Milotic, but one that envied Milotic.
It was none other than Princess DiAnxi from France.
"Would you like to come and battle?"
When no one responded to the challenge, as if sensing that voice, the mental induction simultaneously resonated in the hearts of the Fairy King Carlos and Princess DiAnxi over at the French preparation zone.
This familiar voice made them sharply turn their gaze downward, only to see that Fang Yuan's gaze did indeed seem to be directed their way.
What the hell!!?
"Lord Fang Yuan is..." Princess DiAnxi was utterly bewildered.
Doctor Fang Yuan... because no one went down to challenge, was he actively seeking out opponents himself? And he had even set his sights on them?! Carlos gritted his teeth in discomfort.
Fairy King Carlos of France had her expression twitching incessantly. What kind of person was this?!!
Wasn't he content with no one contesting him for the Legendary Resources?!
Thinking of Fang Yuan himself bringing down the Y Bird with a single brick, as well as his performance in the previous matches, Carlos shook her head vehemently.
Even the Y Bird and X Deer Zheernias thought Fang Yuan was someone not to be trifled with. She and Master ZI Wan had already agreed that they would not interfere with any arena that involved Fang Yuan.
Fang Yuan could forget about tricking them into entering the arena.
Although, because of the training facilities provided to Zhenyas and Xie Qingyi, and the guidance from Fang Yuan, Princess DiAnxi had indeed made great strides in strength, Carlos still didn't believe they could win with certainty...
Super Di Anqi could briefly surpass the strength of the Top Guardian God Level and be deemed as Near-legendary Level. To wield such immense power, surely she must be aiming for some valuable Legendary Resource.
"Too small, the scope is too small."
"Legendary Resources are ultimately external objects, but this battle opportunity is truly once in a lifetime."
"Sooner or later, you will become a legend yourself. By then, your vision will not be limited to just Legendary Artifacts."
"Don't you understand? Breaking through one's own limits is key."
"Don't you want to try and see, between you, who is lauded as having the world's most beautiful body, and Milotic, known as the most beautiful Pokémon, who is stronger?"
The voice resonated once more.
Princess DiAnxi was stunned.
She truly envied Milotic, which shone brightly on the field, and the desire to battle it had arisen within her.
Fang Yuan's words had, in an instant, pierced through Princess DiAnxi's heart, making it race with excitement.
Too small, I have been thinking too small...
Doctor Fang Yuan is right. Last time it was precisely his guidance that allowed me to master Mega Evolution. This time, is Doctor Fang Yuan suggesting that I step into the Legendary Realm?
"I want to enter the battle!"
Princess DiAnxi gazed down at the beautiful form of Milotic below, and declared resolutely.
Even if it meant losing, she wanted to challenge, to strive for that higher domain.
The other Guardian Gods had too limited a perspective, but she could not be the same. She was the Diamond Princess of the Diamond Mine Nation!
Carlos: "..."
"But..."
"Lord Fang Yuan is right." DiAnxi remained firm.
After all, he was someone even Lord Zheniath respected.
Carlos couldn't talk DiAnxi out of it.
Ahhh!!!
No way!!!
This challenge... this challenge, is it really okay?!
To send Super Di Anqi, a Near-legendary Level Pokémon capable of Independent MEGA Evolution, to challenge Silver Liquid Metal?!!
The mask of agony was on.
"The French Association has chosen to challenge the arena————!!"
The long-awaited announcement by the drone Rotom made all the nations, befuddled by what was going on, turn their gaze towards the French preparation zone.
Not to mention outsiders who couldn't understand, even the Trainers from the French Association and Master ZI Wan on the president's platform were utterly dumbfounded.
Damn!
Di Anxi?
Damn!
Weren't you the ones who said you would surrender if you faced Fang Yuan? How come you rushed into this absurd situation?!
At this moment, as people realized that the participating Guardian God stepping down was none other than the Diamond Princess Di Anxi, there was initial silence, followed by a surge of discussion around the world.
"Fairy King of France Carlos? Diamond Princess Di Anxi??"
"A battle for revenge?!!"
In the World Championship, Fang Yuan and Eevee put an end to France's journey to the championship with a Z-Move god-slayer. The topic has been the subject of heated discussion by countless individuals.
