"As for that person... he said he wanted to take a tour around the Galar Region."
"He just left not long ago."
Loz and Miss Olive had very expressive faces.
"Ah, I'm going to rest for a bit now. If you want to know the details, just go watch the video. I'm a bit tired, bye," Qibana waved his hand, feeling very drained.
He had come to believe that person indeed had the strength to defeat Champion Percy's Gigantic Dragons.
And now, he had also calmed down.
damn it, this is it.
The Eight Masters are done for!
A moment later.
Watching Qibana leave, President Loz and Miss Olive silently turned to look at the referee of the Boxing Arena.
The two of them, were going to watch the video!!!
After agreeing to battle with Qibana, Fang Yuan casually used Hoopa's ring to summon a force.
As if to reconfirm Fang Yuan's title of Beast Man, the ring pulled Darkrai over.
So, Fang Yuan ended up using Darkrai to battle Qibana.
Qibana's strength could be summarized as a Dragon Type Champion-level Trainer adept in various weather tactics.
During his battle with Fang Yuan, he employed Sandstorm tactics.
His 2VS2 battle started with Desert Dragonfly.
On Fang Yuan's side, of course, stood Darkrai.
That Darkrai which could create illusions of the Temporal and Spatial dragons.
At that moment, Qibana's expression became serious. To be honest, he couldn't estimate the strength of this Darkrai, but since it could kill Tobias's King Level Darkrai in an instant, at the very least it would have Champion Level power.
His Desert Dragonfly might face a tough fight.
As it turned out, Qibana thought too much.
On the giant screen, watching the battle video, President Loz and Miss Olive fell silent as the Darkrai on screen created a phantom of Primal Kyogre and a Quick Freeze Beam instantly killed the Flying-type Ground series spirit.
"This Kyogre illusion, looks rather skilled."
Next, of course, Qibana sent out his trump card, the Aluminium Steel Dragon, which could Gigantamax. Even among Champion-level, it wouldn't be considered weak after Gigantamaxing.
However.
Even though Fang Yuan gave Qibana a chance to Gigantamax.
The subsequent process was still very simple and crude.
Darkrai created an illusion of Primitive Groudon, a single Earthquake directly turned the interior of the Boxing Arena into ruins, almost shattering the Boxing Arena's energy shield, and the Gigantamaxed Aluminium Steel Dragon was forced back to its normal state.
This was an oppressive force stronger than that of Champion Percy's Gigantamax Charizard.
First Kyogre, then Groudon, beating you so you have no fight left.
After watching the battle video, Loz and Olive had a face full of black lines, and their stomachs hurt a lot.
"1VS2..."
"It's not that Monferno... But this Darkrai is... just as exaggerated."
"That Darkrai definitely has achieved Legendary Level power, just like that Monferno."
"Not only can it instantly kill Tobias's King Level Darkrai, but Qibana's Gigantamax Aluminium Steel Dragon is also helpless... The power of that Earthquake is not much different from Champion Percy's Charizard's G-Max Inferno," said Olive.
Loz also suddenly felt drained.
At this point, there's no need to pursue having two people become part of the Eight Masters in one's own region.
It hurts so much.
"What about the rankings?"
"The system has been updated. Qibana has fallen to 10th place, and Fang Yuan has climbed three spots to currently rank seventh," the referee announced.
Danti, Hirona, Percy, Da Wu, Mikkeli, Karune, Fang Yuan, Sir Shinto.
These are currently the Eight Masters of the championship.
Dr. Kukui, who only just made it into the top eight, was directly pushed back to ninth place by the impressive battle achievements Fang Yuan scored this time. Qibana, who was originally ninth, fell to tenth because he lost to Fang Yuan.
The rankings underwent a major shakeup.
Qibana is someone thoroughly obsessed with fashion trends and social media, very fond of taking selfies.
Thus, he receives a lot of attention online. Even though he began taking selfies to remind himself of the bitterness of defeat, whenever he lost to Danti, the number of mocking comments on his posts increased.
This time, because of the changes to Fang Yuan's ranking and Qibana's points, the comments on his posts surged.
Everyone was asking what was going on, why there was no public battle, asking if he had lost to Fang Yuan.
"Yes, I—the great me—lost, but next time, the victory will be mine!!"
"Also, that guy's fighting style is just so lame!!" Qibana fumed angrily.
"The Darkrai that creates illusions of Groudon and Kyogre for battle is just freaking ridiculous!!!" Qibana raged.
Qibana did not disclose the details, but the onlookers could sense his deep grudge from the words in his comments.
Soon enough, a big shot tried to recreate the Fang Yuan vs. Qibana scene based on Fang Yuan's battle against Tobias.
Darkrai, the Nightmare God, summoned the Twin Deities of Fang Yuan to thrash the Gigantamax Aluminium Steel Dragon!
"Damn, that Darkrai can create illusions of Groudon and Kyogre?"
"Creating those Temporal and Spatial dragons was outrageous enough, and now this??"
"Damn it, I really want a Darkrai too. Then I'd basically have all the Legendary Pokémon."
"That's how you properly use a god beast, man."
Amidst the hustle and bustle online, people suddenly realized.
This Fang Yuan... seemed to have ascended from beyond the 90s to the master class in just a week's time, even reaching seventh place.
Had he already secured the qualification to compete for the title of the world's strongest?
"This guy, he's terrifying."
"The key is, I haven't really heard much about him before."
"Mainly, that Darkrai seems so broken. That must be his trump card Elf, right, being able to create even illusions of Legendary Pokémon... If he gets into the elimination rounds, can the champions beat that Darkrai?"
"Just look at Tobias and Sir Shinto, you'll know. Fang Yuan is sure to use that Darkrai in the 1v1 decisive championship. By then, we'll find out."
"Don't underestimate the champions. Even Darkrai can be defeated by them,"
"Right, don't panic. I'll always support the invincible Flying-type champion, Mr. Percy!"
Meanwhile.
Fang Yuan looked at the rankings and couldn't help feeling delighted.
Eight Masters, and it's good that I have a hand in this.
Also, being the seventh means I won't have to worry about dropping out anytime soon.
If anyone needs to worry, it's Sir Shinto, the Beast Man.
All he has to do is wait for the decisive championship. Danti, Hirona, Percy, Da Wu, Mikkeli, Karune... they must be feeling anxious about encountering Darkrai now.
But they actually don't need to worry too much...
Somewhere in Galar, after sending Darkrai and Victini away, Fang Yuan took out his phone and contacted Rotom.
"Is Mewtwo with you? Tell it the World Championship elimination rounds will start in a week. Ask it to get ready," Fang Yuan instructed.
