All six of Gu Chen's Pokémon had now been knocked out!
The referee announced, "The match is over! All six of contestant Gu Chen's Pokémon are unable to battle. Contestant Hu Bin wins this match and advances to the final four!"
The entire crowd erupted in cheers and enthusiastic applause, with some young fans even throwing their arms up and shouting!
After recalling Altaria into the Poké Ball, Gu Chen walked straight toward Hu Bin!
Gu Chen smiled and held out his hand. Shaking hands with Hu Bin, he said, "You really thrashed me this time. You're incredible-you even have a Mythical Pokémon like Zeraora following you. But the present doesn't decide the future. I'll definitely get stronger, and when that happens, let's settle this with another battle!"
Hu Bin said, "I'd be delighted!"
Zeraora nodded beside Hu Bin, too!
Up on the dais, Hu Jiaxing also nodded in satisfaction. Beside him, Li Lusheng said, "Jiaxing, your son's impressive! He's really strong. He's got the makings of an Elite Four member!"
Hu Jiaxing waved a hand and said, "He's still got a long way to go!"
"It's just that I'm worried about my son using Zeraora so openly. It might draw the attention of some villainous organizations!"
The matter had left Hu Jiaxing, the worried father, fretting endlessly. He was also trying to think of a way to resolve it!
Li Lusheng said, "Don't worry. Any organization would have a hard time taking Hu Bin down now. He's no weakling himself, after all. I'll also arrange for organizations across the country to provide protection at a moment's notice. Rest assured. Young people with the makings of Elite Four members are the backbone of our future. We have to protect them!"
Hu Jiaxing nodded. "Sorry for the trouble!"
