So the Monferno, almost effortlessly like flowing clouds and water, unhindered, brought its fingertips together and clenched its fists. It then smashed the Volcarona from the sky with a Thunder Punch from above and behind.
Craaack!!!
In an instant, accompanied by the pained cries of the insect, the Volcarona fell like a red meteor, with countless currents of electricity spraying out in the process.
But the Monferno knew that one punch wouldn't knock out the physically strong Volcarona, what it needed to do, just like the other players on America's team, was to cripple this Volcarona, rendering Fire God Gura's trump card incapable of battling for days, or even months!!!
In doing so, although China's Second Team wouldn't win, they essentially knocked out the American team.
As the Volcarona plummeted swiftly, the Monferno, right after throwing its punch, flashed, its legs slightly bent, activating its Moonwalk Skill immediately to ignite a speed even faster than before, astonishingly surpassing the falling Volcarona and landing on the ground, standing calmly there. In such a wild stance, it focused its mind, preparing to throw another power punch...
The Monferno actually reached the ground faster than the falling Volcarona, leaving many spectators dumbfounded.
By the time everyone came to their senses, there was a "buzz!!!" sound, the energy barrier vibrated violently. As the Volcarona descended, the Monferno's punch also came down, and with a "bang", when they collided, it was like fireworks exploding. The Volcarona was directly blasted into the sky, and there, beneath Monferno's feet, due to this terrifying Qi Fist, a large pit nearly half a meter deep appeared, and the ground collapsed completely.
The Monferno didn't care about the ground beneath it. Its blue pupils filled with war intent, it vanished again, reappearing in midair ready for another combo attack.
This terrifying, insane, and powerful combination of moves left audiences worldwide too shocked to utter a word.
All of this happened in just a few seconds.
The Volcarona, from a lofty god of fire, a sovereign of the sun, had been reduced to nothing but a crippled insect, utterly unable to resist.
"F*ck, f*ck, f*ck."
In the Hua Nation players' seats, Jiang Li, Su Shu, Shang Ren, and others were repeatedly exclaiming in shock.
Even Yun Kai, the proud and aloof Dragon King, had his face flush red, holding his breath.
Xie Qingyi, Tang Xinlan, both gripping the railing, watched the Monferno's figure.
"What kind of godly strength is this..." Principal Mo was dumbstruck. He had even started to imagine Fang Yuan admitting defeat and returning to his studies obediently, but what... huh??
In the VIP stand, Meloetta opened its mouth in extreme astonishment, because the power level emanating from Monferno was definitely higher than these Phantom Elves that lived in God's Domain. How could this be possible, it was just an ordinary Monferno... how could this be...
At that moment, America's Master Brian was dumbfounded, of course, Master Ma Chenzong was too. What a joke, a Monferno at the Master Level in last year's national competition, barely entering the Top Tier Domain with the help of Ditto during the world championship selection, and now, it had actually touched the pinnacle of the Top Tier Domain???
Now, Master Ma Chenzong couldn't even bother to scoff anymore. His blood boiling, he watched the Monferno's combo attack, pounding the table under the odd gazes of Antonio and others.
...............
Hua Nation, domestically.
Magic Big Breeding House.
The person in charge, Granny Sun, was also following the world championship. She no longer had the youthful ardor, just watching purely for entertainment. At this moment, the familiar face of Fang Yuan appeared on her TV, filling her with nostalgia.
But what moved her even more was the figure of the Monferno. In the old lady's eyes, Monferno's unrivaled warrior's pose gradually overlapped with the image of a calm Chimchar that liked to sit quietly on a rock...
Great Devil Canteen.
Some of the Demon School Students were also following the world championship. They knew Fang Yuan, but Fang Yuan didn't know them.
However, most of these people had seen the Chimchar practicing its punches diligently at the Demon School Training Field.
Combat City, Ice Plain City.
Countless fighters looked towards the Monferno, remembering a particular fighting tournament where a Fierce Fire Monkey defeated a powerful Pidgeot without evolving.
This Fierce Fire Monkey, even on the verge of losing its last strength, evolved stubbornly, proving itself to everyone.
If that Fierce Fire Monkey hadn't withdrawn, wouldn't it have been the champion?
The fighting tournament owed the Monferno a championship, but that didn't matter, today the Monferno proved to the world audience that it had the strength to win the world championship for Fang Yuan.
Boom!!!!!!
Above in the sky, at this moment, the Volcarona's Fire Pull attribute had already been disabled, and the Monferno's ferocious Iron Fist concentrated a huge Fist of Thunderflame without any inhibition, hammering down repeatedly. The Lightning Flame followed its arm and fist, directly forming a giant fist shadow of several meters, engulfing the Volcarona once again, delivering the final blow!!!
```
"Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh," with Monferno's roar, a tempest of pummeling fists completely enveloped Volcarona.
The outcome was settled, Volcarona lost consciousness and ultimately plummeted to the ground, which cracked open once more. The organizers wept; this was the first time the Silver Arena had shattered since the start of the competition, and moreover... it shattered in such a terrifying manner.
At the same time, Monferno landed heavily on the ground, kicking up a huge cloud of dust. In the dust, it didn't even glance at Volcarona but instead headed toward Glutton. Although Fire-tornado beast and Demon Fire Red Fox had exhausted a lot of physical strength to strengthen Volcarona and were stunned by Qi Fist, facing two top-level combat powers at the same time was still a bit too much for Glutton.
But now it didn't matter anymore, it was here.
Every step Monferno took caused immense psychological pressure on Fire-tornado beast and Demon Fire Red Fox.
Under the scorching wave motion of Thunderflame, even without Monferno approaching, the two Pokemon were nearly scared into fainting.
Monster...
Both Pokemon were frightened, and Gura was completely petrified on the field.
In the sky, Muye Liuji also finally came back to her senses, and she looked deeply at Fang Yuan and Monferno. Her Pidgeot, in its eyes, the wariness against Monferno grew almost several times more than that for Volcarona.
This Monferno... is a monster. It's the true god of fire, War God!
..................
China's Second Team VS Mi Country First Team.
The score, 2:6.
Although Mi Country Team was far ahead in the score, now all the American audiences had faces like they had lost their loved ones.
The joy of crushing China's Second Team earlier was now completely eradicated from the American team.
On the American contestants' side, the other nine players had totally lost the ability to think.
To be precise, the contestants from all nations had lost the ability to think.
Those contestants from other nations who had been defeated by Fang Yuan, before they lost the ability to think, all had the same thought: losing to Fang Yuan wasn't so bad.
That insufferably arrogant Fire God Gura who had effortlessly defeated the former champion of Russia with a one-versus-three... suffered an utterly powerless defeat to an Elves Researcher?
Then what did it matter if they lost themselves?
However, the original desperate situation of China's Second Team, after this battle, regardless of the result, they had already won. Fang Yuan and Monferno were the dawn in China's Second Team's darkest moment.
On the field.
After the Referee announced the result, Fang Yuan turned to look at Monferno standing on the field, its aura completely withdrawn, eyes slightly closed.
At this moment, Monferno's body, consciousness, and physical strength had reached their limits; it had lost consciousness and combat ability.
But even so, it still stood without falling, and Fang Yuan immediately understood Monferno's intention.
Glutton was about to help Monferno with its shadow, but it found it completely unnecessary. With the last of its will, Monferno would not fall.
If the original intention doesn't change, then forge ahead. Monferno's heart had never changed; the World Championship would only be a beginning.
Their future is still far, far away.
"You've worked hard."
Fang Yuan took out the Poké Ball, recalling the three Pokemon one after another, and spoke at the same time.
At this moment, whatever Gura was thinking, Fang Yuan didn't care anymore. Knowing the opponent's strength, he was invincible. From now on, even if they met again, even without a team fight and without Monferno, he could keep winning because part of the title of World Champion was Monferno's, so he couldn't lose from now on.
At this moment, the long-silent Silver Arena erupted into cheers that exceeded a hundred thousand voices.
Wearing the red and white uniform, with a calm expression, Fang Yuan didn't look back as he walked toward the China's seats. Under the gaze of billions of eyes, his expression remained calm, seemingly not taking the battle with Gura too seriously.
At this moment, many people realized that Fang Yuan... was just the captain of China's second team...
Has the world gone mad?!
