Elves: New Zhiye, starting from Carlos

"Flame~"

Flame looked at Korne and Lucario, knowing that this was the person its trainer had asked it to wait for, it nodded and took a fighting stance.

"It seems that this is the final test that Grandpa prepared for us. As long as I defeat Flame, I can get Lucario's Mega Evolution Stone."

Korne looked back at Xiaozhi, "You guys stay back, next is the battle between me and Lucario."

"Okay, Korne, come on!"

Xiaozhi nodded, led Serena and others to retreat to the back, came to a safe area, and looked at Korne who was confronting Flame in front.

Korne launched an attack instantly, "Lucario, use the Enhanced Punch."

Gathering the power on his fist, Lucario rushed quickly, but Flame was faster, and just jumped back to avoid its Enhanced Punch.

Then he jumped up suddenly, kicked Lucario with a flaming kick, and kicked him directly out.

Then Flame Chicken kept jumping and kicking, with such a fast speed and strong force that Lucario was exhausted from dealing with it.

Bang!

Lucario was kicked directly onto the rock wall and fell into the pool on the left. Flame Chicken appeared in front of it, grabbed its head when Lucario was in great pain, and lifted it up in the air.

"Flame~"

Only you, who don't even have a full grasp of your own strength, are so ambitious and want to super evolve. It's really overestimating your own abilities.

Flame Chicken followed the instructions of its trainer, and while carrying out physical attacks, it was also relentless and kept scolding Lucario, its junior.

"Luka~"

Lucario opened his eyes with difficulty and hummed unyieldingly.

Flame Chicken didn't say anything else, and with a casual force, he threw Lucario's body away, and in an instant, it sprayed flames and embedded Lucario directly into the stone wall.

"Is such a battle really necessary? The gap between the two sides is too big, it's almost a crushing defeat, and Lucario has no power to resist at all."

Sarina said worriedly, "Xiaozhi, why don't we help Korne? If this continues, Lucario will be in danger of his life."

Xiaozhi shook his head and said, "This is a trial between Korne and Lucario. Whether we are friends or outsiders, we have no right to take action."

"Trust Korne!"

Xiaozhi looked at Flame with burning eyes. The opponent was very strong and had reached the peak of the King level, which was far beyond Lucario's ability to fight.

However, Xiaozhi looked into the distance, looking at the back of the high platform where the Lucario Evolution Stone stood. His wave power clearly sensed the presence of a person there.

As expected, it should be Korne's grandfather, Cocobul, the trainer of Flame.

With him, Korne and Lucario would not be in danger.

Korni encouraged him, "Stand up, Lucario, we agreed not to lose."

Lucario stood up despite the severe pain in his body. He quickly exerted his strength and rushed towards Flame Chicken. Countless enhanced fist shadows shot at Flame Chicken like cannonballs.

Korni shouted, "That's it, Lucario, make a concerted effort and use bone strikes to limit its mobility."

Hearing this, Lucario immediately changed his tactics, and two energy bone sticks appeared in his hands, swinging them quickly, very fast.

But Flame Chicken was faster, it just slightly turned sideways and easily dodged.

At this moment, a barely audible cough sounded, and a trace of helplessness flashed in Flame Chicken's eyes. The speed of movement slowed down a bit, and the strength in his hands also lightened.

It's time to let go!

Lucario's fighting instinct was so sharp that he seized the opportunity and quickly knocked down Flame Chicken with a stick, hitting a large area. Then he threw the bone sticks in both hands and inserted them into the ground in a cross shape, nailing Flame Chicken firmly to the ground and unable to move.

"Well done, Lucario, use the enhanced punch to end the battle."

Kerni said excitedly.

"Ahem!"

An old voice suddenly sounded, stopping Lucario who was about to attack, "Don't go too far, girl."

Hearing this, Kerni was slightly stunned, turned her head and looked around, she said happily, "Grandpa, are you here?"

Kokobul walked out from behind the stone platform, shook her head, took out the Pokémon Ball, a flash of red light passed, and Flame Chicken disappeared.

Kokobul whispered, "You've worked hard this time, Flame Chicken."

How could it not be hard?

If Flame Chicken hadn't let go at the critical moment, no matter how hard Lucario tried, he would never have defeated Flame Chicken.

Otherwise, in a Pokémon battle, if only one powerful monster could defeat an opponent who is much higher in level than itself, then Pokémon battles would be a waste of time.What's the point?

If you want to defeat others' years or even decades of hard work with a momentary burst, don't daydream unless you are cheating.

Kokobul came over, patted his granddaughter on the shoulder, and praised, "You did a good job in this trial, Korni, and Lucario, I can see that you also worked hard."

Korni asked, "Did I pass the trial?"

Kokobul shook his head slightly, but finally said, "Yes, go get the Lucario Evolution Stone, it was prepared for you."

"Yeah!"

Korni jumped excitedly, she and Lucario came to the platform at the same time, put their hands on the Evolution Stone, looked at each other, and smiled.

All the efforts during this period have finally paid off.

Holding the Lucario Evolution Stone, Korni held it up in front of Xiaozhi and said, "Xiaozhi, I have obtained the Lucario Evolution Stone. When Lucario and I complete the super evolution, I will fulfill the promise with you."

Xiaozhi nodded, "Okay!"

Kokobu saw his granddaughter, whom he had raised since childhood, talking to a young man like this. He was distracted for a moment. He walked over quickly and asked, "What is the promise? Can you tell grandpa about it?"

Korni scratched his head and said, "It's the promise to accept the gym challenge. Why do I feel that you have something else in your words,grandpa?"

Kokobu knew that he had thought wrongly.

He kept looking at Xiaozhi, and after seeing the Pikachu on Xiaozhi's shoulder, he seemed to think of something and said, "You are the strong boy who fought with Karuna?"

Xiaozhi was puzzled, "Have you heard of me?"

Cocobul laughed, "The circle of top trainers is very large and small. We, the older generation, don't have the passion of young people and the idea of ​​traveling everywhere, so we set up an elderly group."

"Not long ago, Karuna's grandmother told me about you, saying that her granddaughter was challenged by a boy with Pikachu. The boy was very strong and the strength he showed should not be underestimated. It was at that time that I remembered you and had some impression of you."

"Ah?"

Korni was a little surprised, "Xiaozhi, you have already challenged the champion, you are really worthy of it."
