"So the competition starts in two days?"
Cynthia on the screen asked.
"Well, it will officially start in two days. To my surprise, there were many people coming this time, but not many people signed up to participate."
Cynthia sat at the desk and stretched. This action directly stunned Fang Yan.
Fang Yan:!
"Actually, it's normal. The first reason is because you are holding this kind of competition for the first time and you have no visibility. Many people think it is just a small competition. The second reason is that you have no investment and do not have a good venue. You must know that only a good venue can provide better viewing experience for large-scale competitions. The third and most important point is that your poster invites the world's top Fighting type players to come over for exchanges and discussions. Many people will think that you are sensationalizing because many competitions are under this name."
Cynthia saw the dumbfounded look in Fang Yan's eyes, suddenly had a bad taste, and gently supported it with his hand.
Fang Yan:!!!
"The most important thing is that Mustard seniors and Bruno kings have posted on the World Forum, saying that they will come and participate. From the moment they post, your competition will become the real world's top Fighting type----Martial Arts Tournament."
After Cynthia finished speaking, he asked in confusion, "Why did you choose to call yourself Martial Arts Tournament?"
Because when I was watching Dragon Ball when I was a kid, the conference in it seemed to be called Martial Arts Tournament----
Wait----it seems to be called World Martial Arts Tournament? Damn it! I remembered it wrong!
"Because I think every top Fighting type master has his own style. Whether he is learning from others or creating his own style, it is worth observing, learning and respecting. In addition, this competition is originally designed to allow Dali to be able to It was held after fighting against various powerful Fighting type families. This battle belongs exclusively to the Fighting type family. In my mind, I named it Martial Arts Tournament. In fact, it should be World Martial Arts Tournament."
Fang Yan explained it.
"So that's how it is."
Cynthia nodded, "When senior Mustard and King Bruno chose to participate, the other Gym Leader and King could not help but not participate in this competition. After all, there are not many opportunities for such exchanges and discussions."
"And Fang Yan, don't ignore your influence."
"Me? What influence do I have? I'm just an ordinary person who drives Pokémon Day Care."
Hearing Fang Yan's words, Cynthia seemed to have expected that Fang Yan would say this. She shook her head at the camera and smiled helplessly, "I knew you would say that, but you have to understand that you are friends with almost all League champions and are also champions. Although this news only spreads among the champions, as well as the kings and gym leaders, it is enough.
"The top Fighting type competition held by a champion, and also recommended by other champions, plus the participation of the world's top Fighting type home Mustard and Bruno, no one can refuse this kind of competition."
"When other ordinary players see their names Mustard and Bruno on the list, they know that this will be a top-level competition. Most of them will not dare to participate because of fear. They themselves do not feel that they have become the top Fighting type players in the world."
After listening to Analytic by Cynthia, Fang Yan can only be said to be the long-established champions, while Analytic is simple and straightforward.
"It turns out that's the case. I thought I didn't participate because there were no rewards."
Fang Yan whispered.
Cynthia:?
"No reward? You mean, there is no reward for the Martial Arts Tournament champion?"
Hearing Cynthia's question, Fang Yan shook his head, "Yes, there is no reward, what's wrong?"
Cynthia:----
Garchomp beside him complained mercilessly.
"Crack."
It can be dunked to death.
Fang Yan:----
That's right, Fang Yan is so stingy.
"Where did I deduct? I was thinking, they are all long-established top trainers, Fighting type's family, money and so on may be just a string of numbers to them, and I am just an ordinary person who drives Pokémon Day Care, I can't give them Pokémon Egg, right? It is even less possible to help them cultivate Pokémon, right?"
Fang Yan defended himself.
How many people in Fighting type's family do you think are not poor?
"I----"
When you think about it, it seems true, right?
The most typical example is our Maylene owner.
It's almost endlessly poor.
"Fang Yan, no one would think that they have too much money----"
Cynthia feels exhausted mentally and physically.
Looking at the screen, Fang Yan looked guilty. She rubbed her brow and said, "How about you tell me what kind of event you hold next time? I'll fund it for you?"
How can a champion hold a competition and get no substantial reward for the first place! Especially when the contestants include former champions, kings, and gym owners----
You must know that as the champion of Sinnoh Region, every time you participate in an event, you will receive appearance fees or performance fees.
Even I couldn't imagine that I would invite so many kings and hall owners to participate in the competition, but there would be no prizes.
Fang Yan was moved, but he didn't say yes.
What has become of this? Doesn't this mean that I am being adopted?!
"No! I'll pay for it! It's not like Pokémon Day Care can't afford the fee!"
Fang Yan endured the heartache and said loudly. At the same time, he also took the tablet over and called Mayor Qiyi.
"Um----Cynthia, how much is appropriate? Is eight million enough?"
"Actually, it doesn't need to be that much. This is not a very big competition. Three million is enough. Especially since many contestants come here just to enjoy the competition and show their Fighting type skills to more people, so money is not that important. Even one million is enough."
"They are all here to enjoy the game, so why not just not pay them?"
"Fang Yan----"
Cynthia shouted Fang Yan's name, his voice full of helplessness.
"Don't worry, I'm just talking. I'm going to take out 3.5 million."
"Well, I'll sponsor you 1.5 million, maybe 5 million. After all, this is your first competition, and it's such an important competition."
Cynthia showed a beautiful smile, "Don't think about rejecting it. I'm sponsoring my boyfriend, not you Fang Yan."
"Oh, sometimes I really want to retire and be taken care of by you."
"She doesn't look like much, but she thinks she's pretty. Maybe you can come over and be my secretary."
Fang Yan still wanted to talk, but Mayor Qiyi's call was connected.
"Hey, Fang Yan store manager, what's wrong?"
"Mayor Qiyi, I thought about it and suddenly realized that there seems to be no reward for the top three in our competition. I have prepared a bonus. Can it be used as a reward for the top three? It should be added now, right?"
"Oh, Fang Yan store manager, this is what you are talking about. You don't have to worry about this. I was already prepared when I received the notice. We Twinleaf Town will pay five million for the first place, three million for the second place, and one million for the third place, for a total of eight million."
Sure enough, Mayor Qiyi is reliable!
"What's wrong? Is it less? How about I add more? To be honest with you, store manager Fang Yan, this is already the most money our town can spare."
"No, no, no, I mean, this arrangement is good, but you and Twinleaf Town can't afford it. Let's do it half and half, Pokémon Day Care and Twinleaf Town. After all, Pokémon Day Care and Twinleaf Town are best friends, aren't they?"
"That's it--that's ok, I'll use the remaining money as funds to renovate our Twinleaf Town."
After hanging up the phone, Fang Yan said with a puzzled look on his face, "Renovate Twinleaf Town? What do you mean? Could it be that too much has been damaged recently? Does it need to be renovated?"
"Actually, Lucario and I also wanted to sign up, but we have too many things going on recently and can't spare the time."
Cynthia sighed and said doubtfully.
"Where is Lucian?"
Wait, why is Lucian the first thing I think of in this matter?
Sure enough, outstanding people are always the first to be thought of.
"Lucian just finished working overtime not long ago. We can't let him work overtime again, although I still want to."
"Indeed, sometimes you should let him have a good rest, otherwise it will be bad if he is so tired that he resigns."
On the large, loose bed, purple-haired Looker was sleeping soundly with her eyes closed, holding a life-size Bronzong doll.
Two sneezes startled him awake.
He opened his eyes, looked at the ceiling, found himself lying on the bed, and breathed a sigh of relief.
"It scared me to death. I thought I was still working overtime, but it turns out I was just dreaming----"
After Lucian finished speaking, he turned over and continued Rest.
"Have you received any support from League? Although there are not many people participating, there are quite a few people who come to watch. I even wonder if the ticket price is too low, otherwise there won't be so many people coming to watch, and the hotel won't be able to accommodate them."
"You still charge admission? How much is it?"
"888, in Eastern terms, means fafafa."
"No wonder, the price is so low, it's strange that so few people come. Don't worry, League has already sent people, a king and two owners."
"King of Heaven?"
Fang Yan has an ominous premonition.
"I looked at the notification and found it. Since Aaron is handling the task assigned to him by League, and Flint is also on a business trip due to the task, Bertha's mother-in-law needs to stay at Mt. Coronet, then only Lucian is left, and then the two gym owners are Byron and Roark, plus the participating gym owner Maylene, there is a total of one king and three gym owners."
Fang Yan pursed her lips and tried not to laugh.
Lucian! I knew my hunch was right!
You still can't escape----
Oh~ My poor Lucian~ I have to work overtime again~ I feel sorry for you for three seconds.
Comfortable big bed: "Aqiu----"
After chatting with Cynthia for a while, Fang Yan got up and went to the backyard, and found that Dali and Charizard were fighting each other in the backyard, engaging in fist-to-body sparring. There were no moves, just hand-to-hand combat.
Leon and his Pokémon, as well as a group of Pokémons from Pokémon Day Care who were trained day and night by Dali, and some Pokémons who only know how to cheer are surrounding Dali and Charizard, cheering constantly.
"What's going on?"
Fang Yan walked to the pavilion in the garden and asked Sonia who was sitting inside drinking tea.
"Yesterday, since you said this was an event unique to Pokémon Day Care, he woke up early this morning, brought Charizard over and asked Dali if he could join in, and that's what happened next."
"I'm not surprised----"
Fang Yan smiled and shook his head, looking around Leon, Dragapult, Mr. Rime, Inteleon, Cinderace----
Wrong? Where is Rillaboom? I remember Leon and Rillaboom?
Fang Yan turned to look at Sonia, "I remember Leon also had a Rillaboom? Didn't he bring it over?"
"Brought it."
"Where is it? Why didn't I see it?"
Sonia pointed behind him, Fang Yan turned around and saw Rillaboom lying on the grass.
"Is it at Rest?"
Fang Yan asked in confusion.
Hearing Fang Yan discussing himself, Rillaboom sat up straight and showed a gorilla smile to Fang Yan.
Hehe.
"Oh my god, how did you do that?"
Fang Yan Looking at the bruises and bruises on his face, his eyes are still noble and purple, Captivate, I can't bear to look directly at him.
"Boom."
Couldn't beat Dali, but got knocked down by Coaching.
Fang Yan felt a little sorry for Rillaboom, "Logically speaking, Dali wouldn't be so harsh?"
"Boom----"
Because I told him not to hold back, every time he knocked me to the ground, I refused to admit defeat, so I was beaten like this.
"It was better for me to drag it down before it ended, otherwise I would have been beaten even more severely."
Sonia bit the straw and said.
"This won't work. Come here and let me take a look at your injuries."
Rillaboom sat obediently next to Fang Yan and let Fang Yan check his injuries.
"It's nothing serious. I'll give you some Chinese medicine and you'll be fine."
Rillaboom nodded obediently.
"Don't resist if you fail next time. Dali's fists are no joke."
Rillaboom nodded obediently again.
Fang Yan went to the kitchen to cook the Chinese medicine, took it out, and served it to Rillaboom. Rillaboom smelled the unpleasant smell and resisted a little. After seeing the look in Fang Yan's eyes, he could only drink it obediently.
"Phew, it's a really nice day."
Leon's voice came back. Fang Yan turned around and found Leon walking over with Charizard. Charizard's face was also bruised and bruised.
"Lost?"
"Lost, Charizard still can't beat Dali.
4
Leon shook his arm, "Without using moves and relying solely on Fighting type's skills, Charizard and Rillaboom are still far behind Dali."
"After all, they are not Fighting-type Pokémon."
"That's right, but your training method is very useful. I also found that Charizard and Rillaboom are deficient to a certain extent, and they need to be improved upon."
Leon said minding his own business.
Fang Yan looked at Charizard, and Charizard had a mask of pain on his face.
"Roar----"
It hurts me to death——What did I eat to grow up and become so strong——
Fang Yan handed the Chinese medicine to it, "Drink it, it is very useful for the wounds on the face. If you want to continue next time, my suggestion is to pick Rhyperior, Er Li San Li first."
Judging from the extent of injuries on their faces, it is estimated that their Fighting type level is in the Golem category, almost the same level as Gogoat, and worse than Miltank, let alone Rhyperior, or even Er Li San Li.
"Okay, let's go try it this afternoon."
Leon nodded, then picked up Sonia's water cup and took a few sips into the straw.
Sonia:"That's me----"
"What's wrong? The water is quite sweet today."
Leon glanced at the cup in his hand, "Is it honey water?"
Sonia's face turned red, "Yeah----Yeah."
Fang Yan: Roll your eyes.
If I had known earlier, I would have prepared a bowl of Chinese medicine for you to see if you are still sweet.
Shameless!
At this time Mustard and Honey came over, Honey was holding a basket in his hand.
"Good morning, Fang Yan."
Honey said hello to Fang Yan.
"Master Mustard, Master Honey, did you sleep well last night?"
Mustard nodded, "It's quite comfortable. I got up before dawn, and I'm still very energetic. No, little Honey took me to the forest for a walk and picked up a bunch of mushrooms. But are the mushrooms in the forest edible?"
"Of course, as long as you don't pick up poisonous mushrooms."
Fang Yan nodded.
"I don't know if there are any poisonous mushrooms, but little Honey picked them up----"
"Can I still tell whether a mushroom is poisonous or not?"
Honey glared at Mustard, then handed the basket in his hand to Fang Yan.
"I saw you hadn't gotten up yet this morning, so I asked Misdreavus and Dusclops to take us for a walk in the forest. I guess it didn't cause you any trouble, right?"
"Of course not. As long as you don't enter the hive area in the forest area, you can go to most places in Pokémon Day Care."
Honey nodded, "I also picked up a lot of mushrooms. The mushrooms in the morning were all over the floor. There were too many to pick up."
Fang Yan took a look at the basket, which was full of common mushrooms. He handed the basket to Lilligant aside. Due to the recent surge in the number of Twinleaf Town, Gothitelle has been staying in the hut to entertain guests.
"The Pokémons in the forest often pick up these mushrooms and give them to me. I built the box over there for them to store the little Presents they brought over. However, many times the food in it will be eaten by themselves."
Sonia stood up and stood on tiptoes to take a look, and sure enough, he found several wooden boxes under the swing tree.
"Oh, by the way, Fang Yan, I also saw a forest hot spring in the forest. It was still steaming. I would like to ask if that hot spring can be used?"
Honey thought of the hot springs she and Mustard saw in the forest. She hadn't bathed in a hot spring for a long time and suddenly wanted to bathe in one.
"Of course, Gengar and I often go to the hot springs in the winter."
Fang Yan said with a smile, "We went there last week and it was very comfortable."
"Then can I go there----"
"No problem, I will ask Gengar to go over and talk to the Pokémons in the forest later and ask them to free up the hot springs tonight and tomorrow. Then you, Master Mustard, Sonia, and Leon can go there to soak in the hot springs, but they can only go in batches."
Fang Yan said.
"Do you still need to talk to Pokémon in the forest?"
Sonia is confused.
Fang Yan nodded, "Because the hot spring is in the forest, it is a gift from the forest, and it was discovered earlier by the Pokémons of the forest. We are just borrowing it, so every time I go there, I will ask Gengar to communicate with them and let us use the hot spring for a while."
"So that's it. This is the first time I've seen humans living together in such a friendly and harmonious way with so many Wild Pokémon."
Sonia spoke what was in his heart.
Fang Yan just smiled when he heard this, "Because I have always regarded them as our Pokémon Day Care's friends. There is no so-called relationship between the strong and the weak, there is only the affection and relationship between friends. They will bring Present over to Pokémon Day Care to play, and we will protect the entire forest when we can."
"As expected of you, Fang Yan Jr.."
Mustard patted Fang Yan on the shoulder, and everything went without saying anything.
"Then let's eat the mushrooms Honey's wife picked up for lunch, and have some mushroom soup?"
"Let me help you."
Honey is eager to try.
"Then I'm sorry to trouble you."
