Chapter 391 An Apology from Snow!
"Come back, Electric Dragon, you've done a great job!"
Hearing the applause from the surrounding audience, Qianxue dejectedly recalled the electric dragon.
Her Quartz Tournament journey has come to an end, except for watching the grand battlefield.
Qianxue couldn't help but feel resentful.
Despite the immense effort she and the Lizard King had put in, they still lost in the end.
Thinking of this, Qianxue felt so wronged that tears were about to fall.
"Ugh!"
Seeing Qianxue like this, Qingyuan, who was sitting opposite her, couldn't help but sigh.
He knew that Qianxue must have put in a lot of effort to get to where she is today.
But who among those who has reached this point hasn't put in the effort?
While Pokémon battles are exciting, they also have their cruel side.
Everyone must step on another person in order to continue climbing.
I cannot achieve my own dream without shattering yours.
There can only be one champion, so everyone has their own reasons for not being able to lose.
"Come back, Ironclad Tyrannosaurus, you did a great job!"
After praising the Rhyperior, Qingyuan put away its Poké Ball and turned to walk towards the exit.
"Congratulations, Qingyuan, you've advanced to the semifinals!"
As soon as Qingyuan stepped out of the passage, Xiaozhi greeted him with a smile and congratulated him.
"Thank you!"
"So, Ash, are you confident you can defeat Xia Qiu?"
Upon hearing Xiaozhi's words, Qingyuan first smiled and said thank you.
Then he asked Ash.
"Xia Qiu is very strong!"
Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Xiaozhi stood silently for a moment before speaking to Qingyuan.
Although he has the belief that he wants to become the champion, Xiaozhi can clearly see the gap between himself and Xia Qiu from the previous competitions.
He knew he couldn't defeat Xia Qiu.
But his deep-seated beliefs wouldn't allow him to give up.
So even knowing he couldn't win, he would still try his best.
To do something even when you know it's impossible—that's the passion hidden deep in every trainer's heart.
"come on!"
"The outcome is still uncertain; we could all be dark horses!"
Seeing Xiaozhi like this, Qingyuan patted him on the shoulder and encouraged him.
"Yes, Pikachu and I will definitely do our best!"
Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Xiaozhi nodded excitedly at Qingyuan.
"Pickup!"
Upon hearing Ash's words, Pikachu, perched on Ash's shoulder, immediately chirped in agreement.
"Next, please welcome Ash from Pallet Town and Xia Qiu from Rusty City in the Hoenn region!"
Just then, the broadcast from the preparation area suddenly came on.
Go Ash!
Upon hearing this, Qingyuan patted Xiaozhi on the shoulder and pushed him toward the entrance passage.
"Ok!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhi nodded.
He then stood in front of the entrance passage and adjusted the hat on his head.
"Pikachu, I can't wait!"
"Pickup!"
"You too, haha!"
Upon hearing Pikachu's words, Ash smiled and said something to Pikachu.
Then he strode into the entrance passage.
"Even if you try your best, you probably still won't be a match for Xia Qiu!"
Watching Ash's retreating figure, Qingyuan murmured to himself.
Ash is still too inexperienced. If only Ash were the Ash who had completed the Battle Frontier challenge.
Then Xia Qiu should be no match for Xiao Zhi.
However, Ash, who has just debuted, is probably no match for Summer and Autumn, who have traveled to two regions.
"Big brother!"
Just as Qingyuan was pondering how much trouble Xiaozhi's ingenious ideas could bring to Xiaqiu.
Qianxue's voice suddenly rang in his ear.
Upon hearing this, Qingyuan quickly looked in the direction from which the sound came.
Qianxue was looking at Qingyuan with tears streaming down her face.
"what happened?"
Looking at Qianxue in front of him, Qingyuan asked with a puzzled expression.
After saying that, he didn't forget to observe his surroundings.
Qianxue's current appearance is too easy for people to misunderstand, and he doesn't want to find out about any scandals about himself tomorrow.
For example, "Shocking! Quartz Tournament semi-finalists actually treated genius girl Chiyuki like this!"
"The prodigy Qianxue is suffering on the preparation bench. Is this a sign of the decline of humanity or...?"
"The untold story of the genius girl Qianxue and the top four contestants!"
Qingyuan didn't want to see any of these titles.
Seeing Qingyuan's appearance, Qianxue took out a tissue to wipe away her tears before speaking to Qingyuan.
"Although I don't know what I did to upset you, I still want to say sorry!"
“I used to be too willful and capricious. You saved me, but I didn’t repay your kindness.”
"On the contrary, I kept acting childish in front of you, which annoyed you. I'm really sorry!"
After saying that, Qianxue bowed directly to Qingyuan.
"Um...you get up first!"
Seeing Qianxue bowing in front of him, Qingyuan awkwardly helped her up.
Actually, Qingyuan didn't pay too much attention to Qianxue's little tantrums.
After all, she was just a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl. In his previous life, Qianxue would still be in elementary school.
It's understandable that a young girl might act childishly because she doesn't understand social etiquette.
The reason he had a bad impression of Qianxue was mainly because of her attitude towards the Lizard King and the others.
Back then, the Sceptile King, who was still a Treekie, fought with all their might for Chiyuki.
Then he was seriously injured and lost his ability to fight.
After successfully capturing the Pokémon, Qianxue did not treat the Treecko and the others' injuries.
Instead, he ran up to him with Marill's Poké Ball and showed it off.
Is showing off really more important than healing your teammates who are fighting with all their might for you?
Because of this incident, and because Qingyuan also wanted to capture the unique Maril, but was upset that Qianxue had beaten him to it, he was still upset.
Qingyuan then parted ways with Qianxue in front of Da Sha Valley.
To be honest, he didn't have much of a problem with Qianxue.
Moreover, Qianxue has been almost completely changed now.
"I have no problem with you, it's just that I really did give you everything I was supposed to teach you back then."
"Plus, I felt you should travel and grow on your own, which is why we parted ways!"
"And look, aren't your achievements quite remarkable now, you genius girl from the Hoenn region!"
"It turns out that only flowers that have weathered the storm can see the most beautiful rainbow!"
"So keep it up! One Quartz Conference is nothing. There are so many more competitions waiting for you. With your talent, you'll definitely win the championship soon!"
Looking at Qianxue in front of him, Qingyuan patted her on the shoulder and said.
He wasn't trying to fool Qianxue with his words; Qianxue's talent was indeed quite high, and her family was wealthy enough to provide her with resources for training Pokémon.
Maybe Chiyuki will actually win the tournament championship before Ash!
