Pokémon: The Journey Begins with a Cowherd

Chapter 394 Semifinal List, Opponent Xia Qiu!

He pouted at Xia Qiu with a resentful look on his face.

Xiao Zhi then walked with Xia Qiu towards the exit passage.

"Brother, I knew you were the best!"

As soon as she stepped out of the exit tunnel, Shana, who had been waiting in the preparation area for a long time, bumped into Xia Qiu's arms and said excitedly.

"Hey, I know you're happy for Xiaona, but could you slow down a bit? Don't hurt yourself!"

Xia Qiu pulled Xia Na into his arms and said to her.

"I won't listen, you're just spouting nonsense!"

Upon hearing Xia Qiu's words, Xia Na immediately covered her ears and shook her head.

This was something Qingyuan learned from Xia Na when he was playing games with her out of boredom.

Upon hearing this, Xia Qiu looked at Qing Yuan with a resentful expression.

Look at the bad influence you've given him; his little darling is practically stuffed with rotten cotton.

"Haha, congratulations Xia Qiu, you've successfully advanced to the semifinals!"

Seeing Xia Qiu's expression, Qing Yuan laughed and pretended not to understand, congratulating Xia Qiu.

Congratulations to you!

Hearing this, Xia Qiu, not wanting to slap a smiling face, could only respond to Qing Yuan with a smile.

"By the way, Ash, I've already told Professor Oak about your Forsaken!"

He said he wants you to go back to Zhenxin Town!

Seeing this, Qingyuan turned to Xiaozhi and said.

"what?"

"Are we going back now?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhi asked in surprise.

He had originally planned to wait until the next day or two to watch Qingyuan and the others' match before returning to Zhenxin Town.

"There's no need to rush. You can teleport the Abandoned Monkey back first!"

"Professor Oak is going crazy trying to study the Forsaken Monkeys."

After hearing Xiaozhi's words, Qingyuan pondered for a moment and then spoke to Xiaozhi.

When he contacted Professor Oak earlier, Professor Oak's crazy behavior made him tremble a little.

That's insane! As expected of Professor Oak.

"Okay, I understand. I'll send the Abandoned Monkey back in a bit!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhi nodded to Qing Yuan and said.

"Let's go eat, brother, I'm hungry!"

Just as Qingyuan and Xiaqiu were about to talk about something else...

Xia Na, held in Xia Qiu's arms, spoke to him in a soft, sweet voice.

"Okay, I'll take you to eat right away!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Qiu hurriedly responded to Xia Na.

Seeing this, Qingyuan and Xiaozhi tactfully headed towards the restaurant.

……

After having lunch at the restaurant, Qingyuan and his friends returned to the stands to watch Takeda's match.

Tomorrow is the semi-final, and Qingyuan and Xiaqiu have a one in four chance of facing Takeda.

The strength that Takeda had previously displayed made them all wary.

With the idea that "know yourself and know your enemy and you will never be defeated", Qingyuan and Xiaqiu sat in the stands with great seriousness, watching the match between Takeda and his opponent below.

It must be said that Takeda's strength was indeed formidable.

Even in the quarterfinals, he was still able to lead the powerful crocodile to achieve a 3-for-1 victory.

Qingyuan speculated that his crocodile should have reached level 60, stepping into the level of a near-Elite Four member in the Pokémon novels of his previous life.

Besides Feraligatr, Takeda's battle also revealed three Pokémon that had never appeared before.

These are Forrettos, Ursaring, and Houndoom.

Of these three Pokémon, the one that Qingyuan values ​​most is Forretos.

Adding to the Golem that Takeda had previously revealed, this guy has two Pokémon that can use Explosion.

Xia Qiu uses Ghost-type Pokémon, so there's no need to worry about the two Pokémon that Takeda has.

As for Qingyuan, if he doesn't take it seriously, he might really lose three of his Pokémon.

"Sigh~"

"What a headache! Why didn't I catch a Pokémon with the Damp ability to be my main Pokémon?!"

At the Pokémon Center's restaurant, Qingyuan, who was having dinner, looked at the information about Takeda in his hand and said with a headache.

"I'm not too worried about his Explosive Trap, but his Houndoom can be a significant counter to my team!"

"This guy is a bit tough to deal with!"

Hearing Qingyuan's words, Xia Qiu placed the steak she had cut for Xia Na on Xia Na's table and said to Qingyuan.

"None of them are good. Every opponent who made it to the semifinals is very strong!"

"Instead of focusing too much on Takeda, I think you should pay more attention to the other person who made it to the semifinals!"

"It would be a joke if you guys got eliminated by that person tomorrow!"

Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Zhekida picked up a shad sandwich and spoke to Xiaqiu and Qingyuan.

These past two days he's been busy figuring out how to open a ranch, investigating the materials and funding needed to build it.

He was so busy that he didn't even have time to watch Qingyuan and Xiaqiu's matches.

Seeing that Qingyuan and Xiaqiu were only focusing on Takeda and not on the other opponent, he couldn't help but remind them.

"I know, I haven't given up on researching that either. As a trainer, how could I possibly underestimate my future opponent!"

Hearing Zhe Muda's words, Qingyuan took a big bite of his steak and said to him.

"That's good!"

Upon hearing this, Zhemu Tian nodded to Qingyuan and said.

After dinner, Qingyuan and Xia Qiu returned to the preparation area.

The list of semifinalists will be announced around 7 p.m. tonight, tomorrow.

He and Xia Qiu both came to look at the list.

Takeda and another player who advanced to the semifinals were sitting in the preparation area, waiting.

"Ding dong!"

As soon as a notification sound rang out, the large screen in the preparation area lit up, and the colors on the screen kept changing.

The final list of players for tomorrow's semifinals has been revealed.

"Old Qiu, please guide me tomorrow!"

Upon seeing the list on the screen, Qingyuan grasped Xia Qiu's hand and said...

"Don't worry, I definitely won't lose to you!"

Hearing this, Xia Qiu gripped Qing Yuan's hand tightly and said.

Hearing this, Qingyuan smiled at Xia Qiu, then turned to look at the big screen in the preparation area.

This shows that his opponent in tomorrow's semi-final is none other than Xia Qiu, who is standing right in front of him.
