Zhang Cheng paid little attention to this match. Neither Trainer was strong enough to threaten him; they were not even a match for Lu Luan.
The winner had only reached the semifinals thanks to the tournament format and a lucky run of matchups. He would certainly be eliminated in the next round. Zhang Cheng actually hoped to face him in tomorrow's semifinal—it would practically be a free ticket to the final.
Not long after the third match ended, the fourth and final match of the day began.
This match drew plenty of attention because one of the competing Trainers was Qin Yi, Qingbei University's campus beauty. Not only was she beautiful, but she was also powerful and had many devoted admirers.
The Trainer facing Qin Yi attended the same university as Ye Tian.
The battle quickly began, and there was a considerable gap between their abilities. Qin Yi defeated three of her opponent's Pokémon with a single Primarina. By that point, the outcome was practically beyond doubt.
In the end, the Kyoto University Trainer suffered a crushing defeat without even forcing Qin Yi to send out her pseudo-Legendary Pokémon.
Zhang Cheng felt a little helpless at that. "Come on, buddy, you could at least have made her reveal her trump card. Then we'd have something to prepare for if we faced her tomorrow."
With Qin Yi's victory, all the quarterfinal matches were over. Modu University and Kyoto University each held one semifinal spot, while Qingbei University claimed the remaining two.
With his strength, Lu Luan could easily have reached the semifinals. Unfortunately, his luck had been terrible. He had faced Zhang Cheng and Ye Tian in succession and ultimately suffered elimination.
After watching all the matches, Zhang Cheng stood up to leave. Just then, Ye Tian arrived at his rest
