Lu Ye traveled with Shang Ren and Chairman Tang.
According to tradition, every Donghuang champion had a chance to meet the Phoenix King.
Those who passed the Machado trial would be rewarded by the Phoenix King.
When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, Lu Ye asked Shang Ren what he got from the Phoenix King.
"A piece of hot rock blessed by 'Sacred Fire'." Shang Ren replied, "It's very suitable for my Ardent Arrow Eagle and Wonderful Frog Flower. In short, I'm very satisfied."
Lu Ye said in surprise,
"I thought you didn't pass the Machado trial."
After all, the difficulty of the Trial of Rainbow was obvious to all … Moreover, the previous champion didn't show it at all in the finals!
Shang Ren: "…"
Snatching bamboo shoots!
The Trial of Rainbow focused the most on courage, kindness, and tenacity.
On this point, the veteran Shang Ren, who was often beaten and killed, had indeed cultivated tenacious perseverance …
Chairman Tang said, "Champion, have you really thought about retiring?"
"You can call me by my name." Lu Ye paused for a moment and nodded. "I still want to continue traveling with my companions."
Chi Hong chose to retire because the championship would restrict him from becoming stronger. In addition, he also considered the 'wrist injury'.
Daigo was more interested in collecting ores than working as a champion.
Of course, in a critical moment, whether they were in the position or not, this group of trainers would step forward bravely, and Mr. Lu was no exception.
He would just silently make a note of the 'hatcher' in his notebook …
"I understand what you mean, but unfortunately …" Chairman Tang shook his head gently and didn't say anything else.
Shang Ren's eyelids twitched.
Chairman, I feel like you're implying something!
"Cough!" Shang Ren coughed hard and said in a deep voice, "If you retire, you'll still have the title of champion and a seeded player in the World Championship next year."
Lu Ye was stunned. "What do you mean?"
"Championship-level trainers can directly advance to the Master World Championship. Take Zifuqi Daigo as an example. He is currently ranked fourth among the eight masters and his title is still Fengyuan Champion. "Chairman Tang explained.
Lu Ye felt a little strange.
The World Championship … That would be a feast for the champions and even the Legends to participate in.
It wasn't that I was afraid of losing. The main thing was that participating in the competition could easily cause my Pokémon to enter a 'near death' state. I didn't need to rely on the rankings to prove myself.
At the end of the day … I never wanted to be a trainer!
Lu Ye sighed. Beneath the black and gold champion's cape, a faint chill ran down his back.
Forget it … Today, I will collect some 'sacred ash' from the Phoenix King.
In the future, no matter how serious the injury was, whether it was a person or a Pokémon, it could be pulled back by Holy Ash!
The three of them continued walking for a while.
Arriving at the foot of the mountain, the mountain path in the distance wound upwards. It was shrouded in thick fog, revealing the faint light of the bluestone stones.
"This is the Azure Mountain, one of the places where the Phoenix King soars and resides." Chairman Tang said, "Here, you have to move forward alone, champion."
Chairman Tang insisted on calling him 'champion'. Lu Ye didn't insist and asked, "The fog is so thick.
"The fog is so thick. What if you get lost in the mountains?"
"That is the responsibility of the emissary in the shadows." Chairman Tang explained, "After I, Shang Ren, leave, the Phoenix King's messenger will appear to guide you to participate in the Trial of the Rainbow and lead you to the correct path up the mountain."
"Don't rashly rush into the thick fog. Without the guidance of the messenger, it is equivalent to a dead end!" Shang Ren warned.
Halfway through the Trial of the Rainbow, he had spied on the strength of the wild elves in the thick fog … The Nido King and the Rumbling Stone were extremely fierce!
If they formed an encirclement, the trainer was likely to be bombarded by a round of 'Destruction Ray' and directly carried away!
"It seems that the messenger is really Machado …"
Lu Ye thought to himself, "But I remember … didn't I already pass the Trial of the Rainbow?"
As early as half a year ago, when Shenao was traveling, Machado had appeared to guide Mr Lu to participate in the Trial of the Rainbow.
The content of the trial was [Calming the Raging Knight Ladina, Saving the Glacier Reversing the World].
This was an SSS-level hell difficulty!
In comparison, the Trial of the Rainbow of the previous Donghuang champions was a piece of cake.
Lu Ye pondered for a moment.
Did he have to take the test again on this trip to the Azure Mountain?
At this time, the inner pocket of his shirt was faintly hot and emitted a rainbow light.
Shang Ren opened his mouth, "Mr Lu … your chest is glowing!"
Lu Ye was speechless and took out the light source in his pocket. It was a rainbow feather.
The rainbow feather emitted a rainbow-like light.
Under the surprised gazes of Shang Ren and Chairman Tang.
The light extended a faint path, like a guide, all the way through the thick fog and extended to the far end of the mountain road.
"The Rainbow Feather!"
Chairman Tang had heard that Lu Ye had this legendary item, but when he saw it with his own eyes, he was still a little surprised.
"It seems to be able to take you directly to the top of the mountain … There's no need for a test!" Shang Ren was incredulous.
Why … Because he was more handsome than him, and the Phoenix King liked him?
Lu Ye looked down at the Rainbow Feather, and a blue light surged in his palm. He casually brushed a wave of Wave Guide Power.
Rainbow Feather: (* ^ ▽ ^ *)
In an instant, the path became brighter, as if it was on autopilot, avoiding the dangerous areas in the thick fog and directly finding the Phoenix King!
Lu Ye had a strange expression on his face.
It seemed to be eager for him to find the Phoenix King and pluck its wool …
Did this thing really symbolize the courage and kindness of the Rainbow Braves?
Why do I feel that this feather looks like it's glowing, but it's completely black inside!
In the shadows.
Machado, who had been separated for a long time, secretly hid in the shadows and looked at his old friend from afar.
He still remembered the farewell they had when they parted.
"We'll definitely meet again," Lu Ye said with a smile.
He didn't feel touched for long, and this Rainbow Feather made him surprised.
"Ma Xia! You're reading on NovelFull Thanks,
This Rainbow Feather … had too much character!
At first glance, it was obvious that it had been with Lu Ye for a long time and had been completely assimilated. It looked colorful, but it was actually black!
"You guys go first."
Lu Ye held the Rainbow Feather in his hand, turned around and said with a smile, "I'll be back soon."
Shang Ren opened his mouth wide, looked at the confused Chairman Tang, and nodded in unison.
Lu Ye held the Rainbow Feather in his hand and walked on the mountain path shrouded in thick fog.
Under the illumination of the rainbow, the bluestone emitted a faint light, forming a correct path.
Originally, Donghuang Champion needed Machado's guidance to meet the Phoenix King.
At this moment, Mr. Lu, who had the Rainbow Feather, directly skipped the process!
Machado couldn't stay any longer. His shadow moved on the bluestone and finally stopped in front of Lu Ye.
"Ma Xia …"
A pitch-black figure slowly rose from the shadows, with flames dancing in his eyes, two fists clenched, and a serious expression on his face.
The Phoenix King's messenger, Machado!
After half a year, the two reunited again.
There was no avoidance in his eyes, only a silent greeting.
Lu Ye and the serious Machado looked at each other for three seconds, smiled, and snapped his fingers.
The shadow under his feet suddenly split into two, one becoming Daclyle, and the other becoming Genggui.
The two Pokémon slowly rose from the shadows. Daclyle crossed his arms and nodded slightly at Machado as a greeting to his temporary comrade.
Genggui bared his teeth and greeted loudly, "Hey ~!"
Hello, long time no see ~!
"Ma Xia …" Machado straightened his neck and nodded.
Hmm … long time no see.
Then, Machado looked deeply at the black-haired youth.
A black and gold cape appeared behind his back, symbolizing his identity as the champion.
This meant that he had become the champion of the Alliance … and was planning to meet the Phoenix King!
Phew …
Machado took a deep breath, and flames danced in his eyes. His body was covered in golden flames, and his head was covered in green.
"Ma Xia!" Machado got into a boxing stance and asked Lu Ye for advice.
Fight with me!
I won't let you pass the test so easily and meet the Phoenix King!
Lu Ye reached into his inner pocket.
"Ma Xia!"
Don't even think about taking out the Pokeball!
With a whoosh, Machado moved. He quickly flashed in front of Lu Ye and swung his small black fist!
Lu Ye's cape fluttered in the wind, and his black hair swayed. He didn't avoid Machado's gaze, and he smiled as he looked at Machado's fist.
The fist was so close. Lu Ye's eyes were clear, and there was no fear. There was only a trace of joy from meeting again after a long time.
Because he knew that Machado wouldn't hurt him.
He firmly believed that as long as he gave his heart to the Pokémon, the other party would respond to him.
"Ma Xia …"
Machado's voice became weak, and his gaze wavered a little.
Machado lowered his eyes and looked at Lu Ye's palm. There was a small black, withered, and fragile flower in his palm.
The words were 'thank you,' Gracia Flower.
Machado gave this flower to Lu Ye when they parted. Anything touched by Machado would be entangled by his shadow and become black.
Even the rainbow feather would become black when Machado held it in his hand, and it would become his weapon to punish his enemies.
"Ma Xia …"
Machado didn't think that Lu Ye would keep this little flower … He had just given it casually … Because he had nothing, he could only pick a Gracia Flower from the sea of flowers and give it to Lu Ye.
"Returning it to its rightful owner … No, I'm giving it to you again," Lu Ye said with a smile.
"Ma Xia …"
Machado took a step back and stared at Lu Ye silently.
After a while, he turned around like a strict examiner.
You, your courage has passed the trial …
Now, come with me to see the Phoenix King.
"Koujie ~"
Geng Gui stood outside the field and clapped his hands happily.
Drakley crossed his arms and pondered. "This trial isn't serious at all …"
Lu Ye walked behind Machado and asked curiously, "Didn't I pass the trial last time, Machado?"
Machado's telepathy sounded. The little boy's faint voice sounded.
"Last time was last time. This time, there are new rules."
"Who set the rules?"
"Of course, I set them, so you passed." Machado snorted.
Lu Ye was speechless.
This wasn't taking the back door or nepotism … This was a tie!
