In his aged voice, the butler referee announced the result everyone already knew.
"Milotic is unable to battle! The challenger wins this challenge match!"
Two rounds of applause rang out at once. Misty was clapping in the stands when she noticed that Lisia beside her was also celebrating Xia You's victory, her eyes shining with excitement. Misty couldn't help glaring at her.
"What are you clapping for? Didn't your master lose? Aren't you cheering for the wrong side?"
Lisia turned to her with a look that said, "So what?" "I wasn't cheering for my master. Xia You is my friend. Isn't it perfectly normal for me to be happy that he won?"
"Your friend!?"
Hearing that infuriated Misty!
Are you kidding me!?
How long have you even known Xia You? And you already dare call him your friend!?
If you get a few more chances to see him, won't you start calling him your big brother, just like I do!?
Is this how thick-skinned idols are?
Hmph, how shameless!
She seethed inwardly, but there was clearly nothing she could do about Lisia. After all, she couldn't control what someone else said. It only strengthened her resolve-once the Gym battle ended, they had to leave immediately!
I absolutely can't give Lisia another chance to get close to Xia You!!
The two left their seats and headed down toward the battlefield together. As luck would have it, the aisle through the stands was so narrow that they both got stuck there!
Neither would give way. After exchanging a glance, they pushed forward at the same time, each trying to squeeze through first!
Despite Lisia's apparently excellent stamina from singing and dancing as an idol, Misty ultimately won through sheer strength and squeezed ahead of her!
Rather than immediately hurry to Xia You's
