Chapter 448 Li Luochen VS Yulongdu
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Quartz Conference! I am your host, Nirvana! It is an honor to be invited by the Kanto Alliance to host this conference for you all today!"
The host, Nirvana, stood on a high platform in the center of the venue, his voice resounding throughout the entire hall through the sound system, carrying his usual enthusiasm and energy.
He was wearing a well-tailored dark blue suit, his tie was tied perfectly, he held a microphone in one hand, and waved to the audience with the other, which drew a burst of enthusiastic applause and cheers.
He glanced down at the notification he had just received, his eyes brightened slightly, then he looked up, his smile deepening.
"The Quartz Conference exhibition matches will begin soon. Do you all know who will be playing against each other this year?"
The audience was abuzz with discussion, their voices rising like a tidal wave.
"Isn't it just Lance, Shiba, and Kona fighting each other?" someone yawned.
"At most, we can add crimson or turquoise," someone next to him chimed in, their tone tinged with helplessness.
Ugh!
These five people are indeed powerful, but we're just tired of seeing them!
It's always the same Pokémon over and over again, how can you possibly come up with anything new?
A middle-aged man wearing a baseball cap shook his head, crossed his arms, leaned back in his chair, and had an expression that said, "I've seen through everything."
The little girl next to him was very excited, waving her light stick, but when she heard the surrounding people talking, she slowly put her hand down and looked a little confused. Right, the exhibition match is pretty much the same every year, so what is she so excited about?
Nirvana listened to the discussions in the audience, a slight smile playing on his lips.
"This year's competition is different from previous ones; it will feature Lance, the Dragon-type Elite Four member of the Kanto region, battling a mysterious trainer!"
The sound of Nirvana resounded throughout the venue through the sound system, every word carrying weight and conviction.
Upon hearing the words "mysterious trainer," the audience erupted in cheers.
Mysterious Trainer!
In other words, it's not Shiba, not Kona, not Crimson, not Blue, not any of the familiar faces that viewers are tired of seeing!
Everyone's eyes lit up, and they began whispering among themselves.
"Sister Azure, do you think it could be you?"
In the audience, Xiaoxia, sitting next to Bilan, asked, holding a cup of freshly bought Coke in her hand, the straw in her mouth, her eyes full of curiosity.
"If it were me, I wouldn't be sitting here."
Azure chuckled softly, crossed her legs, crossed her arms, and fixed her gaze on the high platform in the center of the venue.
She certainly knows who the mysterious trainer is, but she won't say.
"That's true." Xiaoxia nodded, took another sip of her cola, and then asked, "So who could it be?"
"I don't know, but they must be an exceptionally powerful trainer!"
Xiao Zhi excitedly stood up from his seat, put his hands on his knees, and craned his neck to look towards the entrance of the venue, his eyes shining like two light bulbs.
Pikachu perched on his shoulder, its ears perked up, its little paws pawing at his hair, peering around with him.
"You idiot, Ash, we already know that without you saying it."
Shigeru sat next to Ash, still being sarcastic towards him.
But his eyes were also glancing towards the entrance of the venue, clearly showing that his curiosity was no less than Ash's.
"It seems this year's Quartz convention will be quite different from previous years."
Xiao Gang sighed, putting his hands behind his head and leaning back in his chair.
Inside the venue, a cacophony of noise rose and fell as everyone speculated about the identity of the "mysterious trainer."
Various speculations intertwined and collided in the air, like a dandelion seed scattered by the wind, landing in everyone's ears and taking root and sprouting.
As time passed, the noise from the audience gradually subsided, and everyone's attention was focused on the high platform in the center of the venue.
Nirvana held the microphone, took a deep breath, his chest expanding and then contracting.
He glanced at his card to make sure the name on it was correct, then looked up, his voice carrying throughout the entire venue through the speakers:
"Now, please welcome the Dragon-type Elite Four member from the Kanto region, Lancelot, and Li Luochen, the Gym Leader of the Minrong Dojo from the Eastern Region!"
After he finished speaking, the audience fell silent for a moment.
"Huh?" someone asked, expressing the first question.
"Gym Leader?"
A middle-aged man wearing a baseball cap frowned, crossed his arms, and said with some disappointment, "I thought he was a top-tier, champion-level trainer. How come he's just a gym leader?"
The people around him echoed, their voices rising and falling like a pot of water about to boil.
Some shook their heads, some sighed, and others simply looked down at their phones, seemingly having lost interest in the upcoming exhibition match.
"Don't you know Li Luochen?"
A young girl suddenly spoke, her voice not loud, but loud enough for several people around to hear.
"How so?" someone nearby asked curiously, leaning closer.
"This Li Luochen is incredible; he caught the legendary Pokémon—Regigigas!"
The girl's voice suddenly rose, filled with pride, as if it wasn't Li Luochen who had subdued Regigigas, but herself.
"Wow, this is going to be a big surprise!"
The middle-aged man who had been shaking his head suddenly straightened up, his disappointment vanishing and replaced by excitement and anticipation.
He took out his phone, opened the camera, zoomed in to the maximum, and aimed it at the direction of the venue entrance.
The news spread like wildfire through the audience, and in less than a minute, the entire venue knew that Lance was going to face a young gym leader who had captured Regigigas in today's exhibition match!
Those who were looking down at their phones looked up, those who were planning to leave early sat back down, and the veteran audience members who had seen too many exhibition matches and thought there would be no more surprises, all widened their eyes and craned their necks, waiting for the two people to appear!
At this moment, Yu Longdu and Li Luochen appeared from their respective entrances.
Yulongdu was the first to emerge from the east entrance of the venue.
He changed his clothes; he wore a deep red cloak with the collar turned up and the hem fluttering slightly in the wind.
The black shirt was tucked into the waistband of the trousers, the belt buckle was silver, and the leather shoes stepped on the floor of the passageway with a natural air of authority.
He waved to the audience, a faint smile on his lips, his gaze sweeping over the cheering faces before finally settling on the front.
Li Luochen walked out from the west entrance of the venue.
He wasn't wearing anything special.
He was dressed in his usual simple outfit: dark trousers, a white shirt, sleeves rolled up to his elbows, and the top two buttons undone at the collar.
But even with such a simple outfit, it looks exceptionally refreshing and neat.
"Brother Luo Chen!"
"Li Luochen!"
"Brother Luo Chen!"
If we're talking about who's shouting the loudest, it's Ash.
He wished he could jump up from his seat and leap directly to the center of the venue.
The sound was loud and clear, even drowning out Xiao An's shouts from afar, and it fought its way through the clamor of the venue!
