Chapter 144: The Conference Begins

When Aunt Yumei learned through video chat that the two had bought a three-story building there, she immediately started scolding them.

"You two are really enough. You just went to a competition, but you spent more than 5000 million Alliance Coins to buy a three-story building that is not very useful."

Xiao Zhen and Huazi, two young lovers, are now helplessly accepting criticism from their elders.

Then, Aunt Yumi pointed the gun at her own daughter.

"Hanako, what did I teach you? Have you forgotten how to be thrifty? Xiao Zhen, who grew up in a big family, may not have any concept of money. He is equivalent to an idiot. But you are different. I tell you..."

The criticism lasted for two full hours, and if Aunt Yumei hadn't felt a little uncomfortable in her throat, it might have lasted longer.

When the video was closed, both of them breathed a sigh of relief. The depressing feeling just now was really not pleasant.

In fact, when Hanako quoted the price, she still underestimated it. After all, that box of gold was worth more than 50 million Alliance Coins.

"It's all your fault. Why did you buy a house? My mother scolded me!" Hanako said angrily.

Xiao Zhen said helplessly: "Is it really that surprising? You have never seen the New Year's Eve dinner in my family. Just talking about the price will probably scare you to death!"

Hanako had no doubt about this. After all, the spending of these rich people must be far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

A few days later, with the sound of cannon salutes, the sacred flame of the Moltres was lit on the field and the conference officially began.

However, before the finals, there are still many rounds of eliminations, and some redundant players need to be eliminated first.

Xiao Zhen also successfully waited for his support group to arrive, but he seemed not to be familiar with many of the people among them, or even did not know them at all.

On the contrary, Hanako immediately became happy when she saw a lot of familiar faces.

"Haha, Hanako-chan, we're here to cheer on your boyfriend!"

"Yes! This year, several young people in our Pallet Town didn't get enough badges. It's such a pity!"

Watching Hanako communicating with everyone alone, Xiao Zhen had an illusion that the person who was about to attend the conference seemed not to be him.

Here, Xiao Zhen also saw an important person. He was standing next to Aunt Youmei and was looking at Xiao Zhen with satisfaction.

Xiao Zhen seemed to have seen a photo of this uncle somewhere, probably in Huazi's home, so he asked hesitantly, "Excuse me, are you Huazi's father?"

When the uncle heard this, he immediately laughed: "Xiao Zhen, right! That's right, I am Hanako's father, you can call me Uncle Ben. Don't be too reserved, we may be a family in the future!"

When Hanako heard this, she couldn't help but stomped her feet and said angrily, "Dad, what are you talking about? What do you mean we're a family from now on?"

“Hahaha!” Uncle Ben couldn’t help but teased, “If you didn’t really like this guy, why would you go on a trip with him not long after you met him, and you’re still dating him now.

I heard that you had a boyfriend, so I flew back to check for you."

Everyone couldn't help but burst into laughter, except Aunt Yumei, who stared at her daughter intently. She seemed to have realized something, but she remained silent and didn't say anything.

Soon, everyone moved into the small building bought by Xiao Zhen. Fortunately, the building had three floors and many rooms, so it was no problem to accommodate more than a dozen people from Zhenxin Town.

But that night, Youmei pulled Xiao Zhen and the other person into a separate corner and criticized them harshly.

The reason why she got angry again this time was because Yumi realized that her daughter was no longer a simple girl.

Anyway, from this day on, any overly intimate behavior between Xiao Zhen and Hua Zi would be ruthlessly interrupted.

However, the most important elimination round has already begun. Xiao Zhen looked at his first opponent, who was actually just an eleven-year-old girl with a childish look on her face, and seemed a little shy.

"I now officially announce that contestant Xiao Zhen from Pallet Town will compete against contestant Yu Zi from Bear Town. Each player can only use three Pokémon. The match officially begins!" With the referee's order, the battle officially began.

Because Xiao Zhen might have interactions with this world in the future, he simply changed the registered residence of his hometown, which was somewhere unknown, to Zhenxin Town.

Xiao Zhen looked at the little girl opposite him and smiled contemptuously, with no intention of showing mercy at all.

"Go ahead, Charizard, win the first battle for me!"

The little Charmander, which was once a young dragon, has now completed its final transformation after experiencing many battles.

Yuzi looked at the ferocious Charizard opposite her and felt a little nervous for a moment. She casually rummaged through her bag before selecting a Poké Ball.

"Go, little fist stone!"

As soon as Geodude appeared, he waved his fists a few times, ready to intimidate his opponent.

However, after seeing the appearance of his opponent, Geodude suddenly fell silent. The level gap between the two was too big, and the possibility of winning was almost zero.

"Front, don't give up, I believe you can do it, use Rockfall!" Yuzi ordered loudly.

Fist Rock felt the trust from his master and couldn't help but clench his fists, full of fighting spirit.

Instead, the Charizard on the opposite side blew out a breath from its nostrils with disapproval.

When Geodude saw the damn big lizard opposite him and thought it looked down on him, he immediately started attacking.

Geodude took out a big rock and threw it directly at Charizard's head.

Charizard smiled contemptuously, smashed the stone with one blow of its tail, and raised its middle finger.

Xiao Zhen yawned out of boredom and ordered, "Charizard, stop playing around, use your jet of flames to get rid of this guy!"

After receiving the order, Charizard opened its mouth wide and covered the entire Geodude with a blazing high-temperature flame.

The flame temperature of Charizard today is many times higher than before, and Geodude simply cannot withstand the high temperature.

After the fire, only a small fist-sized stone that was pitch black was left, lying powerlessly on the ground with a faint black smoke coming out of it.

Yuzi gritted her teeth, retracted the Geodude, and threw out another Poké Ball.

"Compare!"

The one that came out this time was the Pidgeot. It was well bred and looked very energetic. It should have good strength.

As soon as the Pidgeot appeared, it spread its wings and flew high into the sky.

Yuzi ordered loudly: "Pipibi, use high-speed star."

After receiving the order, Pidgeot immediately released a large amount of light in the sky, which hit Charizard like stars.

Seeing this scene, Yuzi couldn't help but jump up. She thought Charizard would dodge, but she didn't expect it to stand there motionless. This move must be very effective.

Charizard felt the pain in his body and was very annoyed. He instinctively screamed towards the sky.

Xiao Zhen also gave an order: "Charizard, fly up to the sky and shoot him down for me!"

After receiving the order, Charizard immediately spread its wings behind it and began to slowly rise into the air.

Seeing that Charizard was about to fly up to the sky, Yuzi became a little anxious and said quickly: "Pipi, don't let it fly up, use Fierce Storm!"

The Pidgeot bird flapped its wings anxiously, creating a strong wind.

However, the sudden strong wind did not disrupt Charizard's flight. As the altitude continued to rise, the flying speed became faster and faster.
