Pokémon: An Encounter with You

Chapter 183 The eve of the game

It was only because Shi Qiu had received the blessing of the forest and obtained the power of Evergreen that he could control and obtain the life energy in nature. Otherwise, he would not be able to raise Elrod.

It should be noted here that recovery and healing energy are not the same as life energy, and the relationship between the two is an intersection.

Not all healing methods and energies are luxurious inputs of life energy.

There are some shadows of life energy in the Pilgrim's Sound of the Bubble Squirrel and the Sakura Blizzard of the Nine-Tailed Fox.

In short, life energy is even rarer than healing ability. Even in the Pokémon world, it is extremely precious. No other trainer will have such luxurious means to cultivate Alakazam like Shi Qiu.

As the Grand Competition approaches, Demon City becomes more lively than ever, and it can be clearly seen that many new faces have appeared in the city.

When strolling on the street, the proportion of people from other districts is gradually increasing.

With the intentional support of the alliance, the level of this year's Magic City Gorgeous Competition can be said to be the most impressive one after the Gorgeous Celebration. In the name of "communication", it has attracted a lot of attention from all over the world.

The officials of the gorgeous competition also understood the essence of publicity, and kept the top coordinators Luo Shanyu and Mus Ilair a secret until two or three days before the start of the competition.

In an instant, the relevant information and news about the Magic City Gorgeous Contest directly topped the hot searches and ranked among the top five hot searches overseas.

Countless people are discussing the upcoming showdown between Luo Shanyu and Mus Ilair.

"Oh my god, who do you think will win?"

"Luoshan Rain! Luoshan Rain! Luoshan Rain!..."

“This is Lord Eliel. I never thought I’d see him in a domestic competition.”

…………

Offline, you can see promotional posters and brochures for the Magic City Gorgeous Contest in every street and alley, as well as postcards and peripherals of the star coordinators participating in this contest. Pictures of coordinators such as Luo Shanyu, Eliel and even Chen Liu Shiqiu and their signature elves can be seen everywhere.

The most popular and main thing is that after the news that Yubie Tenoh will be one of the judges was released, there were also her autographed books and photos, various small figurines of Monarch Snake, etc., which made the atmosphere in the Magic City more lively and directly allowed the audience and contestants to get into the state in advance.

At noon, in the open-air venue of Demon City.

After Shi Qiu got the registration information, he looked at the competition system of this gorgeous competition.

This time, the Demon City's gorgeous competition has many more participants than expected, so there are still auditions.

But this time it was called a different name, the qualifying round.

Shi Qiu complained quietly: "Ah, so the name was changed to highlight the uniqueness of this gorgeous competition?"

“Apart from the name changing, another difference is that the qualifiers will be more formal.”

Ye Lin appeared out of nowhere, with a head of fiery hair, and approached Shi Qiu enthusiastically.

"Officially?" Shi Qiu asked doubtfully.

Ye Lin nodded: "Or to put it another way, this time the gorgeous competition has reformed the competition system of the gorgeous performance competition, increasing the gorgeous performance from one round to two rounds."

"The first round of preliminaries is the same as the previous auditions. The elves can only use one skill, and the judges will score based on coordination, with a full score of 100. The second round of the main competition and the subsequent schedule are no different from a normal gorgeous competition."

Shi Qiu thought for a moment, "That is to say, the auditions have been incorporated into the glamour contest, and the judges who give the scores are the invited guests from beginning to end."

"Wouldn't this result in the threshold being too low, thereby increasing the energy of the judges such as Master Yubie and Mr. Considine..."

"There is a verification process when registering for the Magic City Gorgeous Competition, which will prevent this situation from happening."

The voice came from far away. Shi Qiu and Ye Lin looked up and saw their old friend Chen Liu walking towards them.

Chen Liu opened the Rotom screen and enlarged the number at the bottom in front of them.

"Only when the verification is passed, the registration is considered successful."

"The authorities did not disclose the verification standards, so this matter caused a small outburst of public opinion online."

“……”

Hearing this, Shi Qiu didn't know what to say for a moment.

Is it so abstract?

"Tsk, it's probably because this is a grand event open to the world, in the name of exchange. The scale is large, but the preparation time is very tight, so the official work is a bit rough." Ye Lin laughed.

The preliminaries will not start until tomorrow. The three of them happened to meet at the ticket office of the club. After discussing it, they decided to wander around the area together.

Coincidentally, there was a small commercial street not far away, selling peripheral products related to the Magic City Gorgeous Competition.

Shi Qiu picked up a book from the bookstall.

"The Golden Garden Under the Sea, author, Master Yubie?" He raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Ye Lin leaned over and looked at it twice: "Isn't this a collection of essays that Ye Tianwang published some time ago? It seems to be quite popular with the public."

Chen Liu coughed lightly and reminded Shi Qiu in a low voice: "If you want to buy a copy, you can go to the bookstore. Although it is said to be autographed here, the credibility is very low."

It was the first time that Shi Qiu knew that Yubie Tenoh was actually a writer.

"In fact, most of this is known by fans." Chen Liu explained to the young boy, "'The Golden Garden Under the Sea' is actually the first book published by Master Yubie under his real name."

"She had used several pen names before, but after hiding them for three years, they were all dug out by her resourceful fans."

One of them is called "What a Regret", and he has written three or four novels about the pain of youth, which are quite popular among many literary young people.

Another one is called "Upside Down", who wrote many mysterious horror novels under this pen name and was even called the number one horror novelist in the industry.

Shi Qiu: “……”

The difference in style is really huge. Is the vest really correct?

“I heard that it’s all confirmed, Yu Bie has admitted it reluctantly, and both of his pen names are publishing books recently.” Ye Lin added, like a fan of horror novels.

Of course, there are not only books signed by Yubie, but also various character and elf standing cards on the stall.

Like Chenliu and the hunting swallowtail butterfly, Ye Lin and the long-tailed fire fox.

The production was quite exquisite, and Shi Qiu couldn't help but buy two.

"Don't you want to buy it?"

Shi Qiu looked at the two indifferent 20-year-old male college students behind him.

Chen Liu coughed and shook his head slightly, looking as if he couldn't stand still.

It seems that he felt shy and couldn't bear to look at his own character card.

Ye Lin said casually: "I have bought it. There are a lot of them in my bag."

He is not as thin-skinned as Chen Liu, who thinks these are affirmations of his appearance and strength, which is very beautiful.

Ye Lin then continued, "I've bought quite a few of yours as well... I have to say, you actually have the most variety."

Shi Qiu:......

Pattern?
