Chapter 1016: Shuijing City

Shuijing City is a coastal city located in the eastern part of the Hoenn region.

Since it is located on the east side of the sea, it is naturally one of the main port cities in the Hoenn region.

In addition, it also has the largest department store in the Hoenn area and an art museum named after this city.

"The locals have a saying about this city: it's where the land ends and the sea begins."

Liuqiya, who can be regarded as the host, is introducing the story of Shuijing City to Lin Jing.

“Speaking of which, my favorite place is the fifth floor of this department store.

There are so many cute dolls there."

While speaking, Lukia was looking at the tall buildings and pointed at the advertisement above.

“Oh, I totally forgot.

Before we set off, my teacher told me that a gorgeous competition would be held here in two days.

It just so happens that we can participate.”

“Okay, okay, since it’s two days later, you don’t have to be so anxious now.

We’ve only just arrived here.”

After separating the fairy milk and the flower petals, Lin Jing still felt a little uncomfortable looking at Lukia whose eyes were about to shine.

However, his eyes subconsciously looked towards the picture of a ribbon badge in the distance that had the start date of the gorgeous competition written on it and even had blue wave ripples.

Compared to the ribbon medal in the Sinnoh region, the one in Hoenn looks much bigger and more like a bow shape.

It is a little bit different from the name of a badge.

However, this is also my first grand competition since coming to the Hoenn region.

Thinking back, it seems like my first glamour contest was just yesterday...

Retracting his gaze, Lin Jing subconsciously touched Hua Yeti's little head, and also paid attention to Lukia, who was almost unable to walk after looking at the huge poster.

"You wouldn't be like this, would you?

You should have seen a lot of ribbon badges and the like."

Seeing Lucia's expectant expression just like a newbie, Lin Jing laughed.

He didn't think that Lucia had never seen Adam or Mikoli's gorgeous competition medals.

"That being said...but those are all the teacher's. There's not a single one of mine."

Lukia felt a little disappointed when she heard this. Although she had great respect for the ribbon badge, it was a pity that she had not yet obtained one.

"How could that be? Doesn't Liuli City also hold a gorgeous competition?

Although you couldn’t go to other towns before, you should be able to attend the Liuli City competition."

Lin Jing asked with some confusion.

As the city where the top coordination trainers and gym trainers are located, although the location is a bit remote, Liuli City has held many gorgeous competitions.

But Lucia sighed.

"That being said...but whenever Liuli City holds a gorgeous competition, I will go as a special guest as long as the teacher has no other plans at the time.

They even do some impromptu performances when they are in a good mood, so the coordination trainers who participate are all very strong.

As a result, every time I...”

Thinking of her previous experiences of dressing up and competing in Liuli City, Liuqia also put on a bitter face.

Because of this, even those relatively far away cities have a constant stream of coordination trainers coming to participate in the Liuli City Gorgeous Competition, and there are even more of them than in some small towns on land.

As for strength, let alone those with one or two badges, even two or three coordination trainers who are only one badge away can be seen in each review. Sometimes, the second review quota is filled with trainers who have obtained ribbon badges alone, and even the four trainers in the final review are all strong ones with four ribbon badges.

The final result was that her best result, that is, when Xiao Qingqing was about to advance to the final review, she was defeated by the opponent's 100,000 volts.

"Is that so... then it's really hard for you."

After learning about Lucia's previous experience, Lin Jing's eyes were filled with sympathy.

This is unfortunate, because of the education she received since childhood and her own talent, Lucia has no problem performing in the gorgeous competition.

The problem is, if we assume this is a game, then the story starts in the Novice Village, and she has been locked up in the Boss Town for several years.

Although she never stopped practicing during this period, it was really too difficult for her to just go out and fight those high-level elite monsters and small bosses.

Even though the requirements for strength in the gorgeous competition are not that high, it is indeed too difficult for Xiao Qingqing to win against those experienced opponents with her entry-level strength.

"Okay, okay, now is not the time to worry.

Let’s sign up first.”

Seeing that Lucia was a little withdrawn, Lin Jing also tried to comfort her.

"Yeah! You're right. There won't be that group of outrageous guys this time. I must let them see my Lucia's strength!"

It has to be said that sadness came and went quickly. Perhaps she had already accepted the result of her defeat to those powerful coordination trainers. Lukia quickly cheered up and even made a cute move that she had practiced countless times to show that she was fine.

"Yeah, that's the kind of momentum we should show!"

Although seeing Lukia's look, Lin Jing wanted to curiously add, "And there's no point in worrying this time, because if I also play, you will definitely have no chance of winning the championship." Let's take a look at Lukia's ever-changing face.

However, after thinking about it, in order not to continue to discourage this poor kid, Lin Jing suppressed the thought and instead encouraged him.

"Okay! Let's go."

With a cute fist pump, Lukia ran towards the Pokémon Center in Shuijing City.

Maybe it’s because of her regular gymnastics training, but Lukia’s figure has shrunk rapidly in Lin Jing’s eyes.

"Hey, don't run so fast!"

Looking at this energetic girl, Lin Jing quickly followed her.

Only at this time would he want to thank Riolu for pulling him to exercise every day.

Otherwise, he felt that with his previous physical condition, he would not be able to catch up with the little girl.

...

At the Pokémon Center in Shuijing City, after a long queue, Lukia finally became the first one.

"Hello, your login has been confirmed.

Please remember to compete in the beautiful stadium next door in two days."

"Yes, thank you very much!"

After receiving the gorgeous competition pass handed over by the other party, Lukia wiped the sweat off her forehead.

"Huh---Finally got it."

Glancing fearfully at the long queue behind her, Liukia suddenly felt like she was still in Liuli City.

Before every major competition in Liuli City, it was always the same as this.

I didn't expect Shuijing City to be like this.

"That's no wonder. After all, Shuijing City is a port town. It's very convenient for people from other nearby islands or other places to come here by boat."

Perhaps guessing Lukia's mood at the moment, Lin Jing, who had just stood in Lukia's original position, also speculated while handing over his own illustrations.

"What the trainer said is correct. Because of the location of Shuijing City, the number of participants in every Grand Tournament held here is among the best in the Hoenn region.

Every time, we are exhausted just by registering. "

The registration staff also explained with a wry smile, but after taking the illustrated book, he was a little confused.

"Well, the registration here is not using an illustrated book, but the pass that this lady used before."

Lin Jing, who had known the situation for a long time, also nodded.

"I know this. This is my first time participating in the Hoenn region. Please help me register."

"Is that so? Then keep working hard.

Although I really want to say this, you have also seen it here in Shuijing City.

Because of the location, there are always quite a few expert coordination trainers participating here.

Not for beginners...

ah! ! ! "

The registration staff explained with a smile as they inserted Lin Jing's illustrated book into the machine, but at the very end he exclaimed, and the keyboard on which his left hand was resting fell down at some point.

If it weren't for the wired connection, it would be hard to imagine the final fate of this keyboard.

However, the registration staff didn't care about this at all. He just pulled down the mouse and put his face directly in front of the screen for close contact.

"Um...my registration..."

Looking at the other party's reaction, Lin Jing's mouth twitched slightly.

Isn’t this a bit too noisy? Although he also guessed that his basic information had been seen by the other party.

However, there are actually quite a lot of titles like top coordination trainers.

Not only does the Hoenn and Sinnoh regions hold one every year, but in recent years the gorgeous competition in the Kanto region also seems to be being established and developed.

To be honest, there are quite a few top coordination trainers every year.

“Oh…Oh oh.

Sorry, I will process it for you right away! "

Finally, the registrar seemed to confirm that this was not his hallucination. He stammered a response and immediately picked up the keyboard that was almost disconnected and started typing.

Dozens of seconds later, the registration staff stood up and respectfully handed the gorgeous competition pass to Lin Jing with both hands.

"Here is your pass for the Gorgeous Contest. It has been processed for you."

"Yes, please."

Looking at the exaggerated registration staff in front of him and the surprised gazes behind him that he sensed with the help of the waveguide, Lin Jing felt helpless.

After greeting Lukia, the two immediately walked out of the Pokémon Center.

Only a bunch of people behind him were left chatting curiously.

"Hey, who was that guy just now?"

"Who knew that Mr. Ken would have such an expression."

"Could it be some top coordination trainer senior?"

"How is that possible? I remember all the top coordination trainers. They are nothing like that kid just now."

"Mr. Ken, what's going on with that kid?"

Amid the noisy conversation, a coordination trainer who was somewhat familiar with the registration staff asked curiously.

But Mr. Ken shook his head with a serious expression.

"Okay, okay, everyone line up to register.

No matter what you ask, the specific information of the registrant is private.

If you want to know yourself, go and find out, don’t ask me.”

After saying this, the registrar known as Mr. Ken sat back in his chair, looking at the empty screen in front of him as if he wanted to see the information from a few minutes ago.

---------

Thinking of the information he had seen before, Mr. Ken still felt admiration even at this moment.

As someone who has been working in this industry for decades, he has seen many top coordination trainers. He even registered many of them when they were still weak.

However, this title only made him feel a little bit of admiration, and the feeling of shock disappeared long ago.

However, the trainer just now not only has the title of top coordination trainer, but also has the title of champion of other regional conferences.

This point alone is something that most other top coordination trainers cannot compare to.

After all, as someone who works in this field, he is naturally well aware of the problems most coordination trainers face in terms of frontal strength.

So far, there are only a handful of coordinated trainers who have both combat prowess and exquisite performance.

In their contemporary Hoenn region, there are only master and apprentice Mikoli and Adam.

I didn't expect that the coordination trainer in front of me, who I thought was a newcomer, was such a powerful person.

Is it possible that there will be another person like Mikoli and Mr. Adam who is strong and has extraordinary talent as a coordination trainer?

No, maybe surpassing is more likely.

Mr. Ken felt even more ashamed when he thought of the only badge in the Hoenn region recorded there.

Maybe it has already been surpassed.

...

At the same time, a woman wearing sunglasses and looking cool and intellectual just got off a ferry that had just arrived from afar.

"Phew~ We're finally here, but we have to be quick.

Otherwise, it would be bad if we were discovered by those guys."

Suddenly, a strong sea breeze blew in her face and blew away her pure white sun hat, revealing her long red hair fluttering in the wind.

“Really, I think this hat is pretty good.

I didn’t expect the rope to be so loose…”

Amid the cold voice that was slightly complaining, the hat that was blown off swayed and floated into the sea like a paper boat.

And the woman also walked towards Shuijing City.

It seems that her path is...Shuijing Department Store?
