Chapter 32
I Never Planned to Let You Do That!

Amidst Shi Yi's complaints.

The battle between Class 1 of the Combat Department and Class 3 of the Combat Department officially began.

Even though Wang Mian's Cunning Hound was already quite cunning, it was still no match for the Flame Ape.

Type advantage, in the novice trainer stage, was simply too strong.

Ultimately.

The Flame Ape's fierce flames burned the Cunning Hound, crushing it to victory.

Class 3 of the Combat Department, then went on to relentlessly mock Class 1.

This caused the students of Class 1 to become restless.

If not for the presence of the school teachers, a class war would have been inevitable.

"Yi Ge! You have to teach those guys from Class 3 a lesson when you get the chance, they're just too arrogant!"

As the instigator of this incident, Pang Dun was furious.

Being mocked himself was fine, but the fact that the whole of Class 1 was being mocked made him unable to bear it.

Other students in the class, regardless of gender, all looked towards Shi Yi, demanding that he avenge their honor.

Shi Yi waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, it's a piece of cake."

Next.

Shi Yi from Class 1 of the Combat Department, would face off against Wu Tao from Class 2 of the Combat Department.

This was another grudge match.

Pang Dun's confession to a girl from Class 3 was rejected and he was ridiculed, while Qin Xiang's confession to a girl from Class 2 was also rejected and he was ridiculed.

This led to... the students of Class 2 and 3, being like allies on the same boat, mocking Class 1 together.

Shi Yi was speechless, his two roommates were truly too chaotic.

After Shi Yi went on stage.

The other students from the various classes in the audience, were fanning the flames, wanting to make this battle more intense.

"Humph! Your Class 1 of the Combat Department is nothing but trash, how Wang Mian lost just now, did you see clearly?"

As soon as Wu Tao got on stage, he started with the trash-talking.

This was also a common tactic used by many trainers on the battlefield.

By using trash talk, some mentally fragile competitors would have their mental defenses shattered, thus becoming flustered when commanding their Pokémon in battle, and ultimately losing the match.

In some large-scale competitions, trash talking was prohibited.

But for smaller competitions, including school competitions, it was tacitly allowed.

First, the school wanted to comprehensively assess the students' overall qualities.

Secondly, the school also enjoyed the spectacle.

"I saw clearly."

Shi Yi's response was a little indifferent.

Wu Tao was taken aback, and continued to shout, "Then why don't you just kneel down and beg for mercy? I'll let you lose with some dignity, hahahaha..."

After saying that, Wu Tao laughed himself.

The students of Class 2 and 3 of the Combat Department also joined in the laughter.

Shi Yi remained expressionless, took out a Poké Ball, and asked the referee, "Can we begin?"

"Uh... ahem! Let's begin, please both of you send out your respective Pokémon for battle."

The referee had thought that the two contestants would engage in more trash-talking.

But he hadn't expected that the Shi Yi contestant from Class 1 of the Combat Department had such a good temper.

He was mocked, yet didn't even retort?

At such a young age, he already had such a broad mind... this boy's future is immeasurable.

"Go, Kangaskhan!"

Shi Yi directly sent out Mother Kangaskhan to battle.

Wu Tao's Pokémon was a Hitmontop.

Shi Yi checked the information about this Hitmontop on the data panel.

【Pokémon: Hitmontop (♂)】

【Level: 18 (Normal Mid)】

【Type: Fighting, Flying】

【Ability: Soft-Boiled (Because of its soft body, it can't be inflicted with paralysis.)】

【Individual Values: HP (12), Attack (10), Defense (11), Special Attack (20), Special Defense (11), Speed (29)】

【Moves: Tackle, Scratch, Aerial Ace, Detect, Brave Bird...】

【Held Item: Mask】

【Potential: Elite】

...

After seeing the information of this Hitmontop.

A slight smile appeared at the corner of Shi Yi's mouth.

He was a highly educated individual with professional standards, and he generally wouldn't laugh at others easily.

But this time... sorry, he couldn't help it, he really wanted to laugh.

As a Fighting-type Pokémon, it hadn't even learned a single Fighting-type damaging move?

As a physical attacker, its Special Attack was ten points higher than its Attack?

What kind of deformed, crippled Pokémon is this?

However.

The audience present didn't seem to mind.

Hitmontop, as a Pokémon that couldn't evolve, had a high base stat total of 500 points by default.

Plus... Fighting type counters Normal type Kangaskhan.

To the audience present, the outcome of this battle was already decided.

"How can a Normal-type Pokémon possibly defeat a Fighting-type Pokémon? Ridiculous, ridiculous!"

"Hey! Don't say that... Kangaskhan is a Pokémon that lives with its offspring, two against one, there's a chance of victory, right?"

"666! Two against one, huh? I remember that Mega Evolved Kangaskhan has the Parental Bond ability, it can indeed be two against one, but do you see this Shi Yi guy like he has a Key Stone and a Kangaskhanite? A regular Kangaskhan, during a battle, won't be scared to hide already, two against one? I can only say, six!"

"No, you guys aren't even giving Kangaskhan any credit? It's also quite rare, right? At least in the beginner village, a Kangaskhan like this... for Shi Yi to be able to capture one, maybe he has some skills?"

"Maybe, but not much! Anyway, I'm betting on the Hitmontop with type advantage!"

"..."

Amidst the discussions of the audience present.

The battle was about to begin.

"You go first, otherwise I'm afraid you won't even have a chance to use your skills."

Wu Tao waved his hand, looking full of confidence.

Shi Yi grinned again, "I was thinking the same thing, I didn't plan on letting you either."

"Huh?"

Wu Tao hadn't even understood what Shi Yi meant by that.

He saw Kangaskhan suddenly charging forward.

After getting close to Hitmontop, it swung its fist fiercely.

"Hitmontop, dodge!"

Wu Tao realized that something was wrong with the situation on the field, and immediately shouted loudly.

But alas.

Kangaskhan's punch had already smashed into Hitmontop's abdomen.

Boom——!

The force of Kangaskhan's powerful blow sent Hitmontop flying instantly.

Of course... it wasn't the kind of flying where it glides, but the kind of flying where it's sent flying by Kangaskhan's million-ton punch.

The dull force of the collision caused Hitmontop to crash into the side of the battle field.

Hitmontop landed with a "thud."

On the wall of the battle field, there was still the shape of Hitmontop embedded in it.

It was conceivable.

Just how powerful was Kangaskhan's strike to Hitmontop just now?

In an instant.

The entire Pokémon battle arena was silent...
