Chapter 125

However, just because there are too many people," Ningguang said with a headache. "Time is very tight... In a hurry, Keqing and I have already tried our best to build a large arena. If there are multiple venues, they are divided into multiple competition areas... The audition schedule can be greatly shortened... It's too long now!"

Takumi raised the corners of his mouth slightly. "That's pretty good, isn't it? The audition for the first set of rules is long and boring, and the value is not high. But the second set of rules, once the game starts, is high-intensity, intense, and exciting. It just so happens that these two types of competitions stagger each other's peak viewing experience."

"So, in the next month or two, the people of Liyue and Mondstadt will be blessed! Once you open the illustrated live broadcast, you can not only watch the auditions of ordinary trainers, but also choose to watch the very technical second set of rules champion competition."

Ningguang was shocked when she heard this. "Hiss... a carnival and celebration lasting at least a month?"

Subconsciously, from the perspective of a businesswoman, Ningguang felt that Liyue Port was making a lot of money this time. All walks of life, and the overall economic level... Liyue, the land of rock, will officially enter the age of Pokémon. It's the golden period of development!

After breakfast, Takumi and Ningguang inspected the two venues together. The audition for the first set of rules would be held in the newly built arena. What about the competition for the second set of rules? Considering that it is Vision holders plus Pokémon, a fierce battle like a comet hitting the earth—ordinary arenas are definitely not suitable. A famous character randomly throwing an elemental skill, causing the floor to crack and the stage to collapse—how can this be played?

So, Takumi thought about it again and again and decided to activate the arena in the main store. The arena behind the door was the bug space created by the system. After each battle, Takumi could restore it with one click by clicking "Repair." No matter how fiercely the characters fought, the next competition did not require a decoration team and could be arranged immediately! Highly efficient operation!

Moreover, the reason why it is called a bug space is that this arena can simulate various map environments—jungles, deserts, mountains, volcanic craters—creating an almost real outdoor combat environment, allowing players to be immersed in the scene!

Secondly, there is no need to worry about dummies cheering because this arena can also arrange for spectators to enter. Although there are only a few thousand to eight thousand people at full capacity, it is not as good as the brand-new stadium outside that can accommodate tens of thousands of people. However, there is a square screen broadcast and a live broadcast of Teyvat cheers, so there is no need to worry about the coverage of the game!

…

After inspecting the venue, Takumi and Ningguang arrived at the newly built Liyue Arena. The opening ceremony of the competition would be held here. Backstage, multiple logistics teams were in place. Takumi and Ningguang greeted the medical team, security team, and event operation team one by one.

Seeing Takumi patrolling in person, everyone shook hands and greeted him. The team leaders headed by Hongyi and Ah Zhi were very excited, their faces glowing red.

When Takumi walked towards the lounge of the event operations team, before opening the door, he turned his head and joked to Ningguang, "Sister Ningguang, the team of your Liyue Pokémon Alliance has attracted a lot of talents to the naked eye."

Ningguang smiled and said, "Do you mean that I have strong skills and can attract many talents to vote?"

"Ha, I take that as a compliment."

Pushing the door open and entering, in the lounge, on the sofa, a row of referees, hosts, and commentators stood up.

"Takumi, Nightclub Manager!!"

Everyone shouted in unison, from the bottom of their hearts.

Takumi smiled. "Yo."

He found a familiar person in the commentator group—Tian Tiezui, a storyteller who could not get through Hong Kong after three bowls. You know, the retired champions are all fans of Tian Tiezui. Unexpectedly, Tian Tiezui actually signed up, participated in the event training, and became a glorious event commentator.

"Tian Tiezui? You are a storyteller with great eloquence. I believe that with your commentary, the audience will be even more fascinated when watching the game."

Takumi specifically came up to pat his shoulder. Tian Tiezui was confused for the first time, but then his face was filled with surprise. "Hey, we have a good mouth! Don't worry, Mr. Takumi, no matter how boring the meal is or the boring audition, I can make it interesting."

Takumi had no doubt about this.

Leading the event operation team was Baishi, one of Ningguang's confidants. She was a director. The presidents above were Takumi and Ningguang. After a round of inspection, Takumi arrived at the guest room and waited for the opening ceremony.

As the creator of the times, this was the first Pokémon tournament to break the history of Teyvat. He had to appear as a guest, with a full sense of ceremony. Certainly, Takumi was not the only guest. Mondstadt's luxurious team, or rather, the Mondstadt celebrity team led by Jean, then entered the waiting room of the waiting area.

Hearing that Takumi was there, a group of people came in. Little Klee was chattering and gathered around Takumi, saying how cute her Larvitar was and how fierce her Deino was. There were also those who couldn't stand loneliness, such as Eula and Diluc. They just found a small warm-up area in the waiting area, each releasing a Pokémon. It turned out to be a battle between their hot hands.

…

After Dvalin, the Dragon of the East Wind, sent the Mondstadt luxury group to Liyue, he stayed in the park and did not leave. In the main building, Venti was in the hall and shouted to the dedicated research room at the end of the corridor on the first floor.

"Zhongli, it's time to come out. In another hour, it will be the opening ceremony of the event! Takumi must have also sent you a private message asking you to attend the ceremony. Then, for the second set of rules, the Super Battle, you and I even have a commentary schedule!"

Soon, the door of the research room opened with a bang. Zhongli came out and unbuttoned his doctor's white coat. His face was still handsome and delicate, and he didn't feel tired at all from studying for several days all night.

"Let's go. Just to evaluate the average progress and strength of trainers."

…

Wangshu Inn.

On the top of the tree root, the Conqueror of Demons, Xiao, stared thoughtfully at the pokedex. A private chat invitation message from Takumi had been dormant for two days. He was the Conqueror of Demons. This was the first time he had been invited to a celebration event. He even had to appear in front of people and on camera.

"Do you want to go?"

In the past, Xiao would have refused without hesitation. However, since contracting with a Blissey, his condition had improved unprecedentedly. Before, he was like a terminally ill patient, always worried that he would go crazy and completely lose his mind.

"Hi~"

The angelic Blissey understood Xiao's rare hesitation and patted his shoulder with her little hands, full of maternal love, full of love and encouragement.

Xiao: "… never mind."

His kindness to me is like a new creation, and the karma gradually disappears. The resentment of the demon god's remnant was isolated, and those terrible things could not entangle him. Xiao was no longer worried about what disaster would happen if he appeared in the crowd.

"Whoosh!"

Stepping on a wisp of blue wind, Xiao's figure disappeared from the top of the tree. The Conqueror of Demons had just left.

Verr Goldet, the proprietress of Wangshu Inn, talked to the nominal shopkeeper Huai'an and the chef and said with a smile, "Master Yaksha, he has figured it out."

The shopkeeper Huai'an said with respect, "With Lord Yaksha's achievements, he can figure it out and appear in front of people. After today, someone will definitely build a temple for him."

Yanxiao came to Wangshu Inn last, but he also knew that Wangshu Inn existed because of the Conqueror of Demons, and it was one of Liyue's secret demon-suppressing institutions.

"Jade-Peng Yaksha has paid so much for Liyue!"

…

Ten o'clock in the morning was getting closer.

Inazuma City, Hanamizaka.

The entire Arataki faction was dispatched this time, commanded by the gang's think tank and second-in-command, Kuki Shinobu.

"Quick—install the square screen!"

The young men of the Arataki sect immediately rushed out of the alley and moved quickly. In just a few minutes, a brand new giant screen in the square was successfully erected on Inazuma's street filled with sakura.

This giant screen was very big. Compared to it, the small izakaya in Hanamizaka looked mini. Suddenly, the surrounding Inazuma people were attracted and pointed.

"What is the Arataki faction doing again?"

"Hiss... is this kind of thing something that the Arataki faction can obtain?"

Beep!

Suddenly, the black screen faded away, and the giant screen in the square suddenly lit up, startling everyone around. Noisy sounds came from the other end of the broadcast signal. The picture gradually became clearer. It turned out to be a bird's-eye view aerial shot! A dynamic shot was taken of the recently built Liyue Arena below. Ribbons were flying. The seats in the stadium were gradually filling up, tens of thousands of people. Outside the venue was also a crowd of people as dark as a tide, as if it was a celebration carnival!

Everyone in Inazuma was stunned. Among the seven kingdoms on earth, there was such a prosperous place? Where was this? Even the Arataki disciples who had just installed the giant screen were stunned and were attracted by the majestic atmosphere on the screen.

Kuki Shinobu forced herself not to watch the broadcast. She patted Arataki Itto on the shoulder, lowered her voice, and said seriously:

"Arataki, stop looking! Our mission is to stop the security team pursued by the Tenryou Commission!"

Arataki reluctantly withdrew his gaze, but in the face of a major event, this gang leader also had reliable pride.

"It's up to me to hold back the Tenryou Commission!!"

In the darkness, Hayao, the ninja from the last episode, thought for a while and rushed toward the direction where the Tenryou army might arrive.

…

Yashiro Commission.

Kamisato Estate.

In front of the huge screen, the Kamisato family and their clans and retainers were all present. When they saw the prosperous picture of Liyue slowly unfolding, the Kamisato siblings, Thoma, and others were stunned.

Inazuma City was undoubtedly prosperous. But they couldn't help but compare it to the dynamic Liyue in the aerial view, which simply exceeded the limits of what they had imagined.

Kamisato Ayaka clenched the fan in her hand and murmured firmly, "Inazuma! We can no longer remain in isolation!"
