After a brief but intense showdown, Xiao Huohuo and Bai Ou's battle concluded, with Bai Ou ultimately claiming the victory and becoming the winner of the contest.
The highly anticipated grand finale is about to begin, featuring a fierce clash between Mu Qingzhu and Qiu He.
...
Time flew by like a white steed, an hour passing in a flash. On the left, Mu Qingzhu dominated the entire field with absolute advantage, her stance proud; on the right, class monitor Qiu He blazed a trail, fighting her way to the grand finale stage.
Then, Wang Han said:
"Now, the grand finale begins, with Mu Qingzhu against Qiu He. Both sides can use one Pokémon. Whichever side's Pokémon loses its ability to battle first, the other side wins. Both sides, please release your Pokémon!"
"Go, Gabite!"
"Go, Ivysaur!"
Then, Mu Qingzhu checked Ivysaur:
[Pokémon: Ivysaur
Type: Grass, Poison
Level: 25
Gender: Female
Ability: Overgrow
Skills: Tackle, Vine Whip, Growl, Razor Leaf...
Egg Moves: Petal Dance, Ingrain
TMs:
Aptitude: Elite Four Level]
The battle between Mu Qingzhu and Qiu He began. Both Trainers were powerful, and their Pokémon possessed strong battle capabilities. Gabite and Ivysaur engaged in a fierce confrontation on the field, going back and forth, refusing to give an inch.
"Gabite, Dragon Claw!"
"Ivysaur, Protect! Then, Leech Seed!"
Mu Qingzhu and Qiu He commanded simultaneously.
Gabite instantly condensed Dragon Claw in its hand, then charged forward. Ivysaur reacted quickly, using Protect to block Gabite's Dragon Claw, and seized the opportunity to use Leech Seed. Gabite's reaction was swift; upon seeing Ivysaur prepare to use a move, it quickly retreated.
After several rounds of fierce exchanges, Gabite displayed unparalleled attack power and swift speed. Its sharp claws were like blades, and its pointed teeth like swords, making it difficult for its opponent to withstand its rapid attacks. Ivysaur, on the other hand, stood out with its indestructible defense and astonishing recovery ability. Its Grass-type moves cleverly restrained the opponent's attacks and continuously restored its stamina through Synthesis, demonstrating tenacious vitality.
The match was exceptionally intense, with both Pokémon's stamina constantly decreasing. Mu Qingzhu and Qiu He both nervously watched the situation on the field, continuously adjusting their tactics and strategies. The audience also held their breath, anticipating the emergence of the victor.
"Gabite, Rock Slide!"
"Ivysaur, Razor Leaf!"
Mu Qingzhu and Qiu He immediately commanded.
The two sides fought for several rounds. Although Gabite's level was higher than Ivysaur's, Ivysaur possessed strong recovery abilities, which prevented Gabite from gaining a clear advantage in a short period. The two went back and forth, and the situation was tense.
At this tense moment, both Pokémon had given their all, their power reaching its peak. Immediately after, Mu Qingzhu and Qiu He decisively chose to determine the winner with one final move!
"Gabite, Dragon Claw!"
"Ivysaur, Seed Bomb!"
Finally, in the last fierce clash, Gabite successfully defeated Ivysaur, and Mu Qingzhu won the grand finale. The entire venue erupted in enthusiastic applause and cheers, celebrating Mu Qingzhu's brilliant performance.
Then, Wang Han solemnly announced the final result:
"Ivysaur has lost its ability to battle, Gabite has won, the victor is Mu Qingzhu!!!"
Wang Han announced the results with a warm smile and offered her sincere congratulations to Mu Qingzhu. Facing the honor, Mu Qingzhu remained humble, stating that she had only benefited from a bit of good luck and was deeply satisfied to have made it this far. At the same time, she also expressed her high respect for Qiu He, praising her as an extraordinary Trainer and looking forward to competing with her again in future matches.
This fierce battle not only witnessed a glorious Pokémon showdown but also highlighted the strategic competition between the two Trainers. With profound wisdom and extraordinary courage, they painted a colorful picture of the Pokémon world on the arena, showcasing its infinite charm and possibilities. The audience was captivated by their brilliant performance, giving them enthusiastic applause and looking forward to more thrilling battles in the future.
Immediately after, Wang Han joyfully announced the class's weekly exam results. To everyone's surprise, Mu Qingzhu had actually taken first place! Qiu He followed closely in second, while Bai Ou firmly secured the third spot. Xiao Huohuo and Xia Bing claimed fourth and fifth place respectively, and the sixth position went to...
Then, Wang Han encouraged the students to continue striving forward, hoping they would achieve even better scores and rankings in the upcoming school-wide monthly exam.
The end of the weekly exam, like the ringing of a victory bell, signaled the arrival of a rich and colorful weekend. The students were filled with anticipation, pondering how to weave their own wonderful chapters during this rare leisure time.
Then, Wang Han paused, waved at the five of them, and gently but firmly instructed, "Please come to my office shortly; I have some important matters to convey to you."
Subsequently, the five gathered in Wang Han's office, and Wang Han immediately spoke:
"This monthly exam is school-wide, and I have deep trust in your abilities. However, a few students' performances are particularly noteworthy."
"Tang Peng from Class Two is rumored to possess a Wartortle whose strength has already reached the intermediate level. Furthermore, in the class's weekly exam, he suppressed and defeated an intermediate Grovyle with an unconventional type, demonstrating extraordinary potential."
"Yun Chen from Class Four should also not be underestimated. He possesses a Shinny Flying-type Pokémon—a Great Frigatebird—which is not only exceptionally powerful but also possesses extraordinary speed and attack power."
"Ma Yu from Class Six, his class teacher mentioned that he has a powerful Nidoking, and even more remarkably, this Nidoking also possesses a hidden ability, capable of producing unexpected effects in battle."
"And Nangong Qing from Class Seven, she even possesses a pseudo-legendary Pokémon—a Dragonair—whose strength is already close to advanced. It is also rumored that she has mastered the power of Dragon Control, allowing her to form a powerful synergy with Dragonair in battle."
"You five students must pay close attention to these four during your preparation. Especially Nangong Qing, I heard that during the high school entrance exam, she participated in order to train her Dratini and actually managed to reach our First High School's admission line by a narrow margin. Her strength is evident."
Listening to Wang Han's words, the five couldn't help but feel a surge of pressure. However, Wang Han encouraged them with a firm tone:
"Work hard! At that time, you can come to me to redeem rewards based on your rankings."
Upon hearing about the rewards, the five were invigorated, their motivation doubled. Wang Han waved her hand, signaling the others to leave, leaving only Mu Qingzhu.
When only the two of them remained, Wang Han softly asked:
"Student Mu, your current strength should be close to advanced, right?"
Mu Qingzhu calmly replied, "Yes, I expect to reach the advanced rank before the monthly exam."
Wang Han's eyes flashed with admiration upon hearing this, and she smiled:
"It seems that first place in this monthly exam will undoubtedly be yours."
Mu Qingzhu humbly stated, "I will do my best."
After a brief conversation, Mu Qingzhu politely excused herself and left Wang Han's office.
