Chapter 1156 Identity Disclosure

The East China Pokémon Association headquarters building.

"Have you contacted Champion Long?" Han Dingguo sat on the soft leather sofa, gently stroking the watch on his wrist with his right hand. His eyes lowered, a gleam of light flashed in his turbid eyes, and he asked the subordinate who was standing respectfully in front of the door.

"No, we can't contact Long Guanjun for the time being." The subordinate bowed slightly and responded in a low voice.

"What's the public opinion online?" Han Dingguo took a deep breath and rubbed his head, seeming to be quite worried about this matter.

"President Han, we can't control it at all. The speed at which we delete posts is far behind the speed at which they are published. The whole country is discussing... the matter of King Xia." The subordinate responded with his head down.

Upon hearing this, Han Dingguo took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and continued, "I see. Since we can't get in touch, forget it. Even with such a big incident, Long Guanjun didn't even show up... Forget it, have you been able to get in touch with King Xia Tian?"

"No, he left after the Dragon Gate Festival. No one knows where he went, but it's said he's accepted a disciple and will be at the Jinling City Water Dojo tomorrow." The subordinate shook his head, beads of sweat oozing from his forehead. "When I called, the line was either busy or no one answered, and there was no reply to the message... Xia Tianwang... probably doesn't have time to reply right now."

"Bang!" Han Dingguo slammed the glass coffee table hard, then jumped up, his eyes blazing with anger. "What kind of nonsense is this?! Master and disciple both went into hiding when something happened, and yet they still had the energy to accept a disciple and instead roast me over the fire."

Han Dingguo's anger made his subordinates in front of him even more nervous.

"You continue to send people to contact them... Ask Xia Yu to come back quickly and explain what is going on. Is what is said online true?"

"President Han..." The subordinate showed a hint of hesitation on his face. He looked at Han Dingguo and whispered, "We can't control King Xia. He is one of the Four Heavenly Kings of East China. He is only under the jurisdiction of the Dragon Champion and is directly appointed by the China Pokémon Association Headquarters. We..."

"I know!" Han Dingguo's eyes widened, his tone stern. "Normally, we can't control him, but now is a special period. Such a big thing has happened. He has the identity of Sakaki and is a dangerous criminal! Right now, Dragon Champion can't be contacted. As the president of the East China Pokémon Association, I have the authority to handle this matter!"

Han Dingguo seemed to be getting angrier and angrier as he thought about it. He picked up the documents on the table and slammed them down on it, shouting, "A dignified Four Heavenly Kings is secretly the leader of a criminal organization. This is outrageous."

"What are you still standing there for?! Go!"

"it is good……"

"Close the door!"

…………

"Squeak!"

There was a gentle sound of the door closing, and the dark brown wooden door closed tightly. The anger on Han Dingguo's face gradually dissipated. He took a deep breath, touched his chin with his right hand, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face. At the same time, he kept flipping through his mobile phone, browsing the news about Xia Yu.

He originally thought that this shocking news would ruin Xia Yu's reputation, but he didn't expect that the public would be so tolerant of Xia Yu. Even though there were arranged water armies to discredit Xia Yu, there were still many people supporting him.

Han Dingguo frowned, supported his chin with his left hand, tapped the table lightly with his right hand, and was lost in thought.

After a few breaths, he finally made a decision to proceed as planned and wait another day before exposing Xia Yu's other secrets.

…………

Xia Yu's phone is now always in a red-hot state, and he basically never stops receiving private messages or phone calls.

As for his social media accounts, the comments under each update and video are increasing at an extremely terrifying rate. It is obvious that he has become popular all over the country in a unique way.

Xia Yu had actually expected Sakaki's identity to be exposed. After all, one has to get his feet wet when walking by the river. No matter how well he disguised himself, he would be discovered sooner or later.

To this end, he had laid the groundwork a few years ago and led the entire Rocket Team to join the Phantom Special Operations Team, which was considered a successful way to whitewash himself.

But even so, the revelation of Sakaki's incident will still have a certain impact on him, especially on his future succession to the championship. The original plan may also be disrupted because of this, but since things have come to this point, he can only face it calmly.

"Beep! Beep!"

The phone rang again. Xia Yu wanted to hang up directly, but when he saw the name "Long Fan" on the caller ID, he hesitated for a moment and chose to answer the call.

"Hello, Master." Xia Yu said.

"Well, how long will it take?" Long Fan's voice was as steady as ever. As one of the insiders, he seemed extremely calm after knowing that Xia Yu's identity was exposed.

"Almost there." Xia Yu responded, "I'm coming at full speed."

"Don't worry too much. This incident won't have any substantial impact on you. It will just take a toll on your reputation. However, I've seen quite positive reviews of you online, and the Pokémon Association headquarters has arranged for someone to explain things to you." Long Fan responded, then paused before continuing, "By the way, has Han Dingguo contacted you? Did he call you?"

"I called." Xia Yu replied, "But I didn't answer. He sent me a lot of messages, asking me to go to the East China Pokémon Association to explain the matter clearly, but I didn't reply."

"Don't pay attention to him." Long Fan's tone was full of contempt.

"I know." Xia Yu replied with a smile. He hadn't wanted to bother with Han Dingguo in the first place. Given Han Dingguo's status and position, he wasn't qualified for Xia Yu to report to him.

"Don't worry, stay calm, get a good rest tonight, and come early tomorrow morning."

"it is good."

After hanging up the phone, Xia Yu took a deep breath, patted the sonic dragon under him gently and said, "Sonic dragon, speed up, faster."

…………

The next day, in the morning.

Xia Yu rode his iconic Sonic Dragon across the sky, leaving a white trail in the sky of the imperial capital, and finally landed on the roof of the headquarters building of the Pokémon Association of the Imperial Capital!

"Xia...King." The sentry on duty saluted Xia Yu respectfully. In addition to respect, there was a hint of unknown meaning in his eyes.

The staff who had been waiting for a long time also came forward at this time and said to Xia Yu: "President, Duan Guanjun, Li Guanjun and Long Guanjun are all waiting for you in the conference room."

"Well, lead the way." Xia Yu nodded slightly in response.

"it is good."

Under the guidance of the staff, Xia Yu came to the conference room of the headquarters building.

The staff member stopped outside the door and said to Xia Yu in a low voice, "Xia Tianwang, please go in. The champions are in a meeting. I won't go in. They already know you're here."

"Okay." Xia Yu nodded, then took a deep breath, turned the doorknob, opened the door of the conference room, and walked into the room with his head held high.

…………

A new champion will be added soon.

There are seven champions in China, Li Ruilin (multi-type) in Northeast China, Duan Hongzhi (fighting type) in North China, Mi Ye (grass type) in Central China, Long Fan (dragon type) in East China, Zuo Qi (general type) in Northwest China, and Lu Tinghe (fighting type) in Southwest China, with only the South China champion missing.

The former South China champion Su Sheng (steel series) has retired, and now a new South China champion is to be added.

The requirement is for female trainers around 38 years old to be unpopular trainers, and the trainers cannot be duplicates of existing champion trainers. Popular attributes such as Steel and Fairy are not considered.

Ace is a mythical beast. Everyone is welcome to contribute. Please have unique experiences (don't be too ridiculous).
