Chapter 1163 The list is announced, a declaration of victory!

"The first to appear is the eighth of the Eight Masters—

The first champion of the Alola region, the Four Heavenly Kings of the Flying type in the Kanto region, a rare trainer who holds positions in two major regional alliances, a shining new star, Satoshi of Pallet Town! "

Amidst the cheers, Xiaozhi carried Pikachu on his shoulder, showed his unique passionate smile, and waved to the audience who supported him.

Among these people were loyal fans of "Xiao Zhi Tui" who came all the way from the Alola region, and the Pallet Town cheering group formed by Professor Oak. The gentle woman was unusually motivated today, and Hanako, as a mother, waved the flag in her hand vigorously.

On the other side, right next to the Pallet Town cheering group were Xiaozhi's former travel companions in various regions, as well as friends he had met along the way and had a deep friendship with -

Misty, Brock, Yao, Kacchan, Hikaru, Cialis, Serena, Citron, Yurika, Professor Kukui and his wife and their son Ray, Lillie, Gladion... as well as other Alola companions, and even Koharu from the Sakuragi Laboratory.

Many other friends and rivals made during the journey also arrived at the scene, such as Furula from Asia Island, and the rivals Ahong and Ye Yue.

At this moment, their expressions were happy, relieved, and complicated.

No one expected that the young boy who once shouted that he wanted to become a Pokémon master would now actually step onto the stage to decide who would be the world's strongest trainer.

Especially those strong opponents, many of them are still struggling in the league conference, and only a few have improved in strength.

After Xiaozhi appeared on the stage, Alice, who was called the young champion of the Unova region by the host and ranked seventh among the eight masters, appeared on the stage.

Her fan club in the Unova region is almost as skilled as that of Ash's fan club.

After Alice came on stage, the host's rhythmic voice paused, and the tone suddenly changed. He shouted: "Please allow me to solemnly introduce to you a world-famous hero with countless achievements. The sixth of the Eight Masters, the trainer, Su Hao!"

If fans of all the major champions will cheer for them when they appear on the stage, as the only one with almost no clear place of belonging, Master Eight will be applauded and cheered by passers-by when he appears on the stage because of his world-renowned reputation.

Even other champions hardly have such world-class appeal.

Amidst the cheers, Su Hao smiled and waved to the audience, with a hint of surprise still lingering between his brows.

I didn't expect that I would have such a large number of wild fans.

He thought that his support would not be as good as that of the other seven Eight Masters who were born and raised in the Pokémon world.

After Su Hao, the host introduced the remaining five Eight Masters.

There is world-class actress, Karuna, champion of the Carlos League, who ranks fifth among the eight masters.

There is Adu, the upright and incorruptible dragon messenger, the criminal nemesis, the alliance investigator, the double champion of the Kanto and Johto Alliance, who ranks fourth among the eight masters.

There is Daigo, the elegant nobleman, heir to the Devon Company, champion of the Hoenn region's league, and third among the Eight Masters.

There is the world-famous archaeologist, the female war god of the Sinnoh region, the league champion Sirona, who ranks second among the eight masters.

There is also the current strongest king in the world, who has never lost a formal battle, the temporary president of the Galar League, the undefeated Galar League champion, the strongest in the world, and the invincible Dandi player!

When the eight people officially gathered on the stage, Dan Di, as the current world number one, got the only chance to speak.

The host asked him what he wanted to say to the other seven opponents.

The golden eyes of Dandi seemed to ignite the flame of fighting spirit. He threw away the cloak printed with advertisements and made his signature pose.

Championship moment!

At the same time, his fighting voice rang out.

"Come on horseback!"

"My Pokémon and I will defeat all the opponents in front of us!"

When Dan Di's voice fell, not to mention the thoughts of the other seven Eight Masters, many of Dan Di's fans almost blushed and shouted his name desperately.

The host also raised his eyebrows and said excitedly: "It seems that our strongest champion, the invincible Dan Emperor, has also directly declared his victory!"

"It really makes me look forward to the official start of the competition!"

"Well, without further ado, let's start drawing opponents for each contestant!"

Amidst everyone's expectant expressions, the players' portraits scrolled rapidly on the big screen hanging in the arena.

The host also read out the names one by one according to the groups above.

"The first match of the upper half, Xiaozhi vs. Karuna!"

"The second match in the upper half, Alice vs. Adu!"

"The first match of the lower half, Dantei vs. Daigo!"

"The second match in the lower half, player Sirona vs player Su Hao!"

"The above is the group information for the Eight Masters Elimination Tournament of this Pokémon World Championship!"

As soon as the host finished speaking, the atmosphere in the venue was completely ignited!

"The first match in the upper half, is this going to be a continuation of the regrettable match in the Super Kalos region!?"

"Oh shit, a battle between dragon champions!"

"Dan Emperor, Dan Emperor, invincible in the world!"

"Daigo Daigo, so strong and powerful!"

"Oh no, brothers, the Sirona champion is my goddess. Sorry, I betrayed you!"

"This grouping is good. Don't divide it again next time!"

"There is something fishy going on, return the money!!!"

.....................

The draw is over.

The eight masters left the stage amid the audience's reluctant expressions and returned to the lounge.

Taking the density of matches into consideration, the first and second rounds of matches in the upper half will be held in the morning after the opening ceremony.

In the afternoon, the first and second rounds of the lower half will be held.

Then, the semi-final matches of the two half zones will be held in the morning and afternoon respectively on the second day.

On the third day, the much-anticipated final battle to determine the world's strongest player will take place!

In a while, the reorganized battle venue will welcome the first round of knockout matches.

The first champion of the Alola region, Satoshi, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Kanto region's Flying type, VS the Kalos League champion Kaluna!

The first round of matches will adopt a 1VS1 battle rule. It can be said that one wrong step will lead to an irretrievable situation.

It can be predicted that in the quarter-finals, each champion will show off his or her unique skills and fight with all-out ace-to-ace to decide the outcome.

There was also a heated discussion in the audience.

There is no doubt that Kalena will definitely send out her ace Gardevoir.

So, who will Xiaozhi send?
