Pokémon: Start with a Uranus gecko!

Chapter 264 Top 16 Grouping

shouted the host's voice on the radio.

There was thunderous applause at the scene.

Zongming took back the edelweiss moth, walked out of the venue, and bumped into the two of them.

"It's too late. The game is already over."

Kyohei frowned and said, he had tried his best to deal with his opponent as quickly as possible, but he was still a step too late.

"Why are you in such a hurry? You will encounter us sooner or later anyway, so you might as well enjoy the process of fighting your opponent."

"Too weak, boring." Xiao Yin said disdainfully.

"You guys, is it fun to bully people?" Kyohei also said something to him.

"That's not true. It's just that Meiqi is a very good opponent, so I just want to play for a while."

Zong Ming replied that this was what he thought. Meiqi was a respectable opponent. It would be too disrespectful to kill someone directly.

"Humph, be careful of capsizing in the gutter!" Xiao Yin sneered, then turned and left.

"When we meet, you have to be careful."

Gong Ping said calmly and turned around to leave.

"These two are so calm!"

Behind Zong Ming, Nazi and Sundae came over and said.

"Generally speaking, such a calm situation can only prove that the two of them have a strong trump card."

Zongming smiled and said that he was really curious about what powerful Pokémon these two people would come up with.

……

"Really, the Johto League is so unbearable this time! Look at you guys, you made this Quartz Tournament feel like a kid's game. The excitement of finally winning the championship is gone."

Sundae complained that the strongest opponent she encountered at the Quartz Conference was Shinji.

The level of other people is simply incomparable to those in the Silver Conference.

"Okay, let's go back first. All the games will be over today, and the list of finalists for the championship will be known soon." Zong Ming said.

The three of them returned to the competition hall.

At this time, several people were sitting there quietly waiting.

In addition to the previous three people, Gonghei, Xiaoyin, Xiaomao, Mei Yi, and Ye Yue, plus Zongming, there are already six people confirmed to qualify.

"Zong Ming, you're here!"

Xiaomao stepped forward to say hello.

"Where's Xiaozhi, he hasn't arrived yet?"

"Hmph, that idiot may have already lost."

Xiao Mao said lightly, but looking at him crossing his arms and tapping his fingers, it was clear that he was worried.

After all, apart from Zong Ming, he was also looking forward to an honest battle with Xiao Zhi in the league.

In the hall, the trainers were quietly waiting for the results to be announced.

After Zong Ming's six people, eight more people came one after another.

"Brother Zongming, sister Nazi, sister Sundae!"

A lively and cheerful voice came.

Marina ran in waving her little hands. Seeing how excited she was, there was no doubt that she was successfully selected.

This was also what Zongming expected. She even defeated Hiro, so of course she had no problem beating those ordinary players.

"You did a good job. You were able to reach the top [-] in the first competition. This result is at least a passing grade." Zong Ming praised.

With the arrival of Marina, the number of qualified people has reached 15, and only the last place is left.

"Ah, everyone is already here. It seems I'm slow."

Finally, the belated super newcomer came over scratching his head and smiled.

"Xiao Zhi, you are in last place again, you have made no progress at all!" Xiao Mao mocked disdainfully.

"Tch, your opponent is just weaker, so you're just one step ahead. There's nothing to be proud of."

"Really? I just checked. Among the 16 people here, 15 passed the preliminaries with two wins and six points. Only one passed with one win and one loss and four points. Xiaozhi. , do you want to know who that person is?"

Xiao Mao asked ruthlessly.

Zong Ming looked at Xiaozhi's flushed face. Needless to say, it was Xiaozhi who narrowly missed the mark by 4 points.

Just as the two were arguing, all the top 16 players had been determined.

"All contestants, please note that the list of candidates for the Silver Conference finals tournament has been confirmed. Please go to the event hall to watch the big screen to confirm your opponents and the time of the competition!"

Upon hearing this news, all the trainers, whether it was Xiaozhi and Xiaomao who were arguing, or Xiaoyin, Kyohei, and Mei who were concentrating with their eyes closed, all looked at the big screen in unison.

Even Zongming was a little nervous. After entering the final tournament, nearly half of them were friends, and the chance of them being grouped together was getting higher and higher.

But no matter who it is, everyone is now a rival. Whoever wants to meet him can only say that he is unlucky.

The big screen began to randomly shuffle the cards. This was the last time to randomly select the opponent, and then it was a single elimination match.

Soon, the grouping of avatars on the screen was determined, and the 16 avatars were divided into 8 groups.

First four groups:

The first game, Xiaozhi vs. Ye Yue;

The second game, Xiaomao vs. Lizi;

Game [-], Little Silver vs. Dushe;

Xiao Yin's opponent, Dushe, is the champion in the original work.

The fourth game, two unknown trainers.

The last four groups:

Game [-], Marina vs. Ye Yu;

Game [-], Kyohei vs. Takeha;

Game [-], Zongming vs. Mei.

Except for Xiaozhi, Xiaoyin and his opponents, they are all ordinary people or characters familiar from the original work.

Everyone else's opponents are strangers.

The game process is also a little different from the original work. It should have been Xiaozhi versus Xiaomao first, and then Ye Yue, but now it's the other way around.

He and Mei Yi are really destined to be together. He was the first person he met when he came to Chengdu.She was the first one Johto met, and she is also the first friend he met in the competition now.

Zong Ming smiled helplessly.

"Xiao Zhi, tomorrow is your first match, so get ready early. I'll be waiting for you in the quarterfinals, so don't let your guard down."

Xiao Mao waved and left. He already knew his match time and opponent. There was no need for everyone to stay here and they all left to prepare in advance.

"Ye Yue, I didn't expect to meet him in the first round."

Xiaozhi looked at the screen solemnly. Although he was confident in himself, he also knew that Ye Yue was a very powerful opponent and must not underestimate him. He knew this very well.

"Xiao Zhi, I hope we will have a wonderful game tomorrow." Ye Yue walked to Xiao Zhi and said.

"I will definitely do my best."

"It seems that we can see a wonderful battle tomorrow. Sundae, Nazi, and Marina, let's go too."

Zong Ming asked the three women to leave together.

When the decisive tournament begins, unless two trainers are evenly matched and it becomes a tug-of-war, there will usually be four games a day, two in the morning and two in the afternoon.

In other words, Zongming's game time will be the first game in the afternoon the day after tomorrow.
