Chapter 131 The race for position begins!

The intensity of the resurrection match is far more brutal than that of the qualifying round.

After all, if you lose the preliminaries, you still have a chance to participate in the revival match, but if you lose the revival match, then you really lose.

Therefore, the players who wanted to hold back before no longer hid after falling into the resurrection match.

This also makes the resurrection match more exciting than the qualifiers.

But at the same time, those contestants who were not strong to begin with were eliminated once again.

Unfortunately, Xu Jie, Cheng Chen and Alinaza were among them.

Fortunately, Gu Hao broke through the siege in the resurrection match and advanced to the qualifying match.

The key to Gu Hao's ability to break out of the siege was that his Charmeleon evolved into a Charizard during the competition.

Only then did they advance to the next round thanks to the strong performance of Charizard.

……

The freshman competition has come to the fifth day.

The third round of competition officially kicked off.

A total of 300 players advanced to this round, and they will compete for only 50 qualifying spots in the next two days.

Although the promotion match still uses a 3v3 battle mode, it is not the previous single-elimination system.

The 300 contestants will first compete in one round, and then the winners will form a group and the losers will form a group.

The two groups will play another round, and the loser of the winning group and the winner of the losing group will play another round.

Players in the losing group who lose the game again will be eliminated directly.

Then the winning players in the winning group will compete within the group, and the winner will directly advance to the finals.

The loser and the winner of the losing team will play again.

Until the final 50 contestants are decided.

Simply put, players who win all three games will advance directly.

It doesn’t matter if you lose the first game, there is still a chance.

But if they lose two games in a row, they will be eliminated.

This is also the way to protect those strong players from being eliminated early.

Lin Rui's opponent in the first promotion match was a boy from Trainer Class 5, who had dyed yellow hair and looked uncouth.

Before the game even started, he started verbally provoking Lin Rui.

"Boy, my Pokémon are all at the top lord level. I advise you to admit defeat early, otherwise it will be embarrassing if you lose later." The yellow-haired man said with a disdainful smile.

Faced with the other party's provocation, Lin Rui was not afraid at all and immediately responded sarcastically.

"Wow, a lord-level peak combat power, I'm so scared!"

As he spoke, Lin Rui pretended to be scared.

Just when Huangmao thought Lin Rui was very tactful, Lin Rui suddenly changed the subject and continued.

"Isn't it just the peak lord-level combat power? I thought he was so powerful, but it's just this good."

"you..."

The yellow-haired man snorted coldly, then thought of Lin Rui's previous match and continued, "Boy, stop pretending. I've seen your previous matches. You just advanced by chance with a Shiny Gastly."

"In the face of absolute strength, your Shiny Gastly is simply not good enough!"

"By the way, in order to deal with your Gastly, I have specially prepared a big gift for you."

Without waiting for the referee to signal both sides to send out their Pokémon, the yellow-haired guy threw the Poké Ball first.

"boom!"

After the red light, a Houndoom appeared on the field.

He had already studied Lin Rui's Pokémon.

Lin Rui has only sent out two Pokémon to participate in the competition so far, a Pichu and a Gastly.

Pichu's level is too low and can be basically ignored, while Gastly, who has ghost and poison attributes, is just restrained by Houndoom, who has evil and fire attributes.

Besides, his Houndoom has the characteristic of waking up early.

So he confidently let Houndoom start the game.

"It turns out to be Houndoom. No wonder he is so confident." Lin Rui smiled coldly.

Eyes of truth open.

Seeing the yellow-haired man send out Houndoom, the audience who had an impression of Lin Rui started talking about it.

"It's Houndoom. This is going to be a good show."

"Finally someone comes to punish this damn scoundrel."

……

Among them, the most aggressive ones were Yu Jiajia’s relatives and friends.

They also came to watch Lin Rui's game today.

Of course, they were not there to cheer for Lin Rui, instead they were there to see how Lin Rui lost the game.

"I have to admit, your confidence is a bit blind. Who told you that I only have one Pokémon, Gastly?"

"And who told you that Gastly is my strongest Pokémon?"

Lin Rui looked at the other person with a joking expression, and when he saw the yellow-haired man's expression change slightly, he continued, "Sometimes ignorance is really scary."

After hearing what Lin Rui said, Huangmao immediately retorted: "Impossible, you must be lying to me. You can't possibly not train Shiny Gastly as your main force."

Hearing this, Lin Rui shook his head helplessly and said, "Yes, Gastly is indeed my main Pokémon, but who told you that I only have this one main Pokémon?"

"It's game time!"

Just when Huangmao wanted to say something, the referee interrupted their conversation after looking at the time and began to announce the rules of the game.

"The first game of the promotion match. This match will be a 3v3 match. The match will be over when all three Pokémon of one side lose their ability to fight."

"The red team is Lin Rui from Trainer Class One, and the blue team is Gao Jian from Trainer Class Five."

"Now I announce that the competition has officially begun!"

"Please send out the first Pokémon from both sides!"

Since the yellow-haired Gao Jian had already sent out Houndoom, everyone was now looking forward to what Pokémon Chen Xiao would send out.

"Come out, Ghost!"

Lin Rui originally wanted to send out Gyarados, but after thinking about it, he decided to continue to let Gastly start.

On the one hand, it allows Gastly to continue to gain experience, and on the other hand, it confuses the yellow-haired creature.

really.

After seeing that Lin Rui sent out Gastly, Gao Jian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Boy, you spoke so beautifully just now, but in the end you still sent out Gastly."

"Just watch me beat you up!"

"Then you have to have that strength!"

……

At this time, the audience in the audience laughed when they saw that Lin Rui still sent out Gastly.

"Hahaha, this is so funny. Didn't this guy just say that he has more than one Pokémon, Gastly? Why did he send in Gastly, whose attributes are restrained? Isn't this just courting death?"

"Who knows? Maybe he really wants to defeat his opponent by reversing his attributes?"

"That's nonsense. Who does he think he is? A great god on the Heavenly Ranking?"

Just as people below were discussing, the referee on the field had already announced the start of the game.

"Round 1, Houndoom vs Gastly, the match begins!"

"Evil wave!"

As soon as the referee finished speaking, Gao Jian took the lead in launching an attack.
