Chapter 194, Competition 1 Ended
Chapter 194, Competition 1 Ended
As time went by, the first competition finally came to an end. There was one team whose initial surprise turned to shock, then to displeasure, and then to a persistent displeasure.
That's right, this team is none other than Team Kato, the well-known Trainer Academy. Even their principal's face was practically dripping with black liquid.
Not to mention Principal Guo's relentless mockery from the sidelines, the entire match ended in a crushing 8-2 victory.
Actually, you can't really blame Kato and his group too much, because this year's Quartz Academy was able to perform to its full potential under Xuan Mingtian's leadership. The academy as a whole even saw significant improvement; they just chose the wrong opponent.
After the match ended, it was almost time to go home from school. Each team began preparing for their second match in the afternoon, a match that would test their Pokémon's training, teamwork, and overall strength.
All the participating teams hurriedly ate a few bites in the cafeteria before resuming training their Pokémon. This clearly revealed their competitive spirit, as this was a competition concerning the reputation of the academy and the school.
After all, if that college loses, it will have to endure a year of ridicule or contempt.
The most obvious example is the senior students who are a year ahead of Xuanmingtian. They spent a year enduring this disdain, but this disdain came from the Trainer Academy towards Indigo Academy. So please don't misunderstand, because the senior students had no choice.
According to Xuan Mingtian's understanding, in the previous competition, the difference was only one point, so the teachers and students knew that they had done their best. But that didn't stop them from mocking him.
Fortunately, this year Quartz Academy has emerged as a dark horse, producing the fifth member of Team Xuan Mingtian. They directly crushed the arrogance of Trainer Academy, causing the principal, known as the 'Ninja Turtle,' to have a sullen face throughout.
But what Xuan Mingtian least expected was that after the match, Shiranui In from Kato Takashi's team actually had a teary-eyed look on her face, with countless tears welling up in her eyes.
At the same time, he put on a pitiful look, which almost made Yang Bin, who was next to Xuan Mingtian, want to bring out a celebratory cannon.
Yang Bin's slight smile instantly made the Kato Sculpture squad, who were watching them intently, grit their teeth in hatred. They even felt an urge to start a fight.
Fortunately, as the team leader, he stopped his underlings from acting impulsively. After all, as the heir of a large family, he had enough restraint. Otherwise, resorting to fighting over a lost match would have brought shame upon the family.
"You guys shouldn't be so arrogant. This is only the first competition. Even if you have better theoretical knowledge than us, we will definitely not lose the next competition. I'm going to crush you in the ground and show you the strength of our Trainer School."
Just then, Kato Takashi and his squad blocked Xuan Mingtian and his group. Kato then uttered harsh words, attempting to overwhelm their opponents with his imposing presence.
The rest of their team also strongly agreed with Kato Takashi's statement.
Well, it's like a group of kids lost. They were really upset, so they put on a fierce look and glared at the other person with gritted teeth.
This is a very impolite act.
Unfortunately, after glancing at them, Xuan Mingtian raised his hands and shrugged, a nonchalant gesture that inspired his teammates to adopt the same posture.
"and then?"
"Yes, yes, and then what?"
"No way, it can't be like this. Come on, show me your teeth."
Faced with Kato Takashi's bizarre name, Xuan Mingtian was the first to speak, asking a question. Xiao Gang and Yang Bin followed suit.
That face, that expression... It almost made Kato's team ascend to heaven in anger. They never expected that their peers would say such infuriating things.
At that very moment, the principal, who had somehow appeared behind both sides, overheard the entire conversation, causing Principal Fuji, whose expression had just begun to brighten, to darken again.
"Hehe, my student. What I want to tell you is that even if you win a competition, don't be complacent. And if you lose the next competition, don't cry and go to your mother."
Unable to contain himself any longer, Principal Fuji spoke up, after all, Kato and the others were his most valued first-year students. If he didn't comfort them while also reprimanding Xuan Mingtian and the others, it would likely affect his students' morale.
"Oh, and then? Don't tell me you weren't angry about losing the first competition, you bunch of idiots. You're all grown up, yet you're acting like children. Are you trying to make me despise you, Principal?"
See? This is infuriating! Xuan Mingtian's single sentence left Principal Fuji speechless. He didn't even have a chance to refute it; after all, if word got out that he was arguing with a child, he would lose all face.
Especially since Principal Guo was smiling and facing him at that moment, it put him in a difficult position as a fellow principal.
"Little friend, what you're saying makes me feel very embarrassed."
"Alright, alright, that was indeed my mistake. Well then, I wish you all the best in your second competition and hope you achieve even greater success."
After saying this, Xuan Mingtian walked straight past the people blocking his way without even looking up. The other four followed suit, avoiding everyone.
"Damn it, what's going on? The competition is over and school's out, why are you still blocking my way? I almost couldn't hold it in. Come on, Xiao Gang, I need to go to the bathroom. What a bunch of lousy bastards."
However, Xuan Mingtian had only taken less than two meters when his pace involuntarily quickened. He kept muttering curses under his breath, as he followed the habit of slipping away as soon as he was done. Furthermore, he had drunk too much milk tea before the competition ended, and he really couldn't resist anymore.
His words immediately ignited the surrounding students and teachers, and no one stopped him from going to the toilet anymore. After all, holding it in was really uncomfortable.
This caused Principal Fuji's already dark face to turn from black to green and then back to black again—a sight more spectacular than any neon light.
“Principal Guo, look at the kind of students you’ve taught! They have no respect for teachers whatsoever; they’re a disgrace to students and a disgrace to the education sector. They don’t even respect you, their principal.”
"Oh, what does it matter? He has good grades and a good family upbringing. He's also the little tyrant of our academy, so let him do whatever he wants. Even if he demolishes the academy, it doesn't matter. Oh, and I forgot to tell you, his surname is Xuan."
After Principal Guo's reminder, Principal Fuji finally realized the identity of this arrogant child.
