Xu Mu left Arceus in Giratina's care for a week and returned to his lodgings.
There were still matches ahead. After showing off with the Six Divine Birds, Xu Mu needed to focus on completing his tasks.
Being the protagonist came with a lot of pressure!
Back then, he had kept saying he didn't want to be a Trainer.
In the end, Xu Mu had been forced to give in.
Looking back, every cause had its effect, and his reckoning had come in the form of that damned system...
Damn System, you got your way!
Seven round-robin matches remained.
Each would be a full six-on-six battle against one of the other top-eight contestants.
Honestly, if every one of those seven matches were described in detail, this book might be finished.
Even the most thrilling battles got tiresome when there were too many of them.
Besides, Xu Mu had already done all the showing off he needed to do.
He had taken care of everything else, too.
There was no need to drag out what came next. The author reckoned it could fill another five hundred thousand words...
Now, back to the story...
A month later, Xu Mu, a newcomer who had been a Trainer for only a year, won the World Elite Four Tournament!
After leaving his footprints and handprints in the Hall of Champions with his Pokémon, Xu Mu scooped Cynthia into his arms, thoroughly satisfied.
She had traveled all this way to watch his final, waiting for this very moment!
Reporters and other media personnel had already surrounded Xu Mu and Cynthia.
The reporters fought to push closer to Xu Mu and ask him a few questions.
But Arceus, now skilled at using his power, casually used Teleport.
He sent Xu Mu straight back to his lodgings.
