Caught Ting-Lu

"Clang!"

The dull and deafening sound of gold and iron clashing resounded through the basin, which was surrounded by mountains like an ancient tripod.

Like ringing a bell, the longsword flashing with icy cold light dragged the cold breath out of a cold stream, and then, slammed into the bronze tripod above Ting-Lu's head.

Icicle Crash!

Aisha's hand was not too strong.

Chien-Pao's attack is strong.

Even Ting-Lu, who had a full defense, could not withstand this sword after its physical defense was weakened by the characteristics of the Sword of Ruin.

"Ow!"

The stag took a few steps backward with a mournful cry.

Its amber-colored eyes were tinted with confusion.

"Confusion!"

Aisha was delighted.

As expected, all his luck had been put to good use...

That's why I couldn't get a good card in Dou Dizhu1 game.

It's a relief!

"Uh-huh."

Aisha didn't rush into the attack, taking advantage of the fact that Ting-Lu was in a state of flinching and couldn't move for a while, he backed off for a while.

He held his sword in an imposing pose.

"Buzz!"

With a flash of cold light, the bronze sword flashed with an incomparable brilliance.

Aisha clearly felt the weight of the bronze sword in his hand was rapidly increasing, as if the blade was also becoming sharper.

This is Sword Dance!

First, he used Taunt to block all of Ting-Lu's changeable moves, preventing it from strengthening or recovering.

He then uses this as an opportunity to strengthen and weaken his opponent's ability.

This is Instructor Ai's favorite technique.

It's also a very simple but useful maneuver for an attacking team to use against a receiving team.

It's perfect against Ting-Lu, who is good at defense...

"Ow!"

Stomping out its thick front leg, its wide, earth-like paw stomped on the thick ground.

"Crack!"

The sound of the earth shattering came quickly, and a deep and incomparable gully spread out from under Ting-Lu's feet, and it spread towards Aisha's direction not far away in a lightning fast speed!

"Fissure?"

Aisha was shocked, and immediately realized what Ting-Lu was planning.

This guy was going to decide the winner with a single move...

What a maneuver!

But Instructor Ai, as an Operational Trainer who knew Ting-Lu's playstyle well, how could he not be on guard against Ting-Lu's Fissure no Jutsu?

"Heh~"

With a sneer, his figure disappeared into thin air with the flash of a psychic powerwave.

"Crack!"

The cracks on the ground spread at a speed invisible to the naked eye, but lost its target, and then extended all the way to the edge of the basin.

"Huh?"

Aisha, who utilized his psychic ability to instantly move to a faraway place, turned around and glanced at the terrain damage caused by Ting-Lu's ground crack.

This glance made him break out in a cold sweat...

The crack in the ground wasn't wide, but it was more than wide enough for a human to fall into.

The rift spread hundreds of meters all the way to the mountain wall at the edge of the basin, and with a loud rumbling sound, a large chunk of the wall collapsed along the edge of the basin, accompanied by a shower of debris and dust.

In addition... The depth of this crack, Aisha could not see the bottom of it at a glance!

"Hiss..."

Aisha let out a breath of cold air, amazed by Ting-Lu's power.

"Ow!"

At this time, the huge deer with cold eyes turned to face Aisha who had dodged its sure-fire blow, and once again let out a thick roar in the sky.

This time, like a sturdy steed, it violently raised half of its body, and its thick mountain-like body appeared tall and lofty.

The two front legs quickly surfaced on the surging ground attribute energy, it two feet blasted to the feet of the earth has been broken into a thousand holes.

"That's Earthquake..."

Seeing Ting-Lu's pre-movement, Aisha recognized what it was using.

With the devastation caused by a "light" Earthquake and the range of the move still fresh in his mind, Aisha set up a surprise attack almost instantly.

Sucker Punch!

The bronze sword was wrapped in an evil light, and with a flash of black light, Aisha drew a black blade across the basin with his sword.

He managed to grab Ting-Lu's Earthquake before it could activate, and dashed underneath it once again.

"Hmph..."

With the force of the thrust, Aisha slipped and slid down, slipping between Ting-Lu's raised legs and the two legs that were on the ground.

The bronze sword went upwards, and the sharp blade left a deep wound on the stag's abdomen.

"Ow!"

Ting-Lu roared in pain, and the movement of his stance was briefly halted.

Aisha, on the other hand, didn't dare to be careless.

Without a moment to relax, he immediately stopped his sliding action, rolled over and stood up, and without leaving Ting-Lu a moment to catch his breath, he immediately brought his sword and slashed down once again.

"Buzz!"

The bronze sword buzzed incessantly, and more and more cold aura spread out from the sword.

This proved that Chien-Pao was very excited and in a good mood.

Beating up Ting-Lu is something... It's been wanting to do it for a long time!

Thank you, Master, for fulfilling my dream.

I, Chien-Pao, would like to call you a Dream Master!

Icicle Crash!

In a flash of cold light, two new wounds were added to Ting-Lu's hind legs.

"Boom!"

Only then did Ting-Lu's raised front legs finally hit the ground.

Aisha's attacks all happened in a very short period of time...

His training as a psychic has greatly enhanced his mental strength and reflexes.

Nowadays, he possesses both superhuman physical strength and genius reflexes.

With the two Treasure of Ruin... That's a lot of power!

"Rumble!"

Ting-Lu's two front legs landed like two hammers, the Ground attribute energy was violently released, and it set off a shocking wave on the ground.

For a moment, the entire basin was in mourning.

The rift caused by the Ting-Lu land rupture became even larger under the influence of the Earthquake.

Centered on this crack, countless other small cracks gradually spread out across the basin.

Luckily... Earthquake releases its destructive power in all directions from its own center.

Aisha had arrived at Ting-Lu's side through Sucker Punch, and was now close to its hind legs, so the Earthquake didn't affect him.

"Ow!"

Realizing that Aisha had seen through its attack and countered it perfectly, Ting-Lu, who was still in a state of provocation, suddenly became furious.

It puckered its hooves, and its thick hind legs flew up and kicked Aisha, who was hiding behind it.

Two deer hooves wrapped in the Ground attribute energy not much worse than just now.

This is Stomping Tantrum, but directly on the human body!

"Woo!"

Aisha's pupils shrank, and he immediately raised his bronze sword in front of him.

Because the distance was too close, it was too late for either instantaneous movement or simple dodging.

So Ting-Lu finally struck its first effective attack in the battle...

"Clang!"

Just like when Aisha struck the bronze sword on the bronze tripod on Ting-Lu's head, a dull sound of gold and iron suddenly resounded.

Aisha only felt a huge force that was so heavy that it seemed unstoppable.

In the next moment, he realized that his body had already risen up in the air and flew backwards into the blue sky.

"Ha..."

Aisha frowned as he felt the strong wind blowing from behind him.

His wrist hurt from Ting-Lu's kick.

Luckily... Ting-Lu's kick on Chien-Pao's sword, which was protected by Reflect, could not do much damage due to the negative effect of burns, which weakened a Pokémon's Attack.

"Crack!"

The sound of the ground being turned over came from below.

Aisha, who had already begun his descent, looked down, but he couldn't find Ting-Lu's figure.

There was only a big hole under the giant tree in the center of the basin.

"It's hiding in the ground with Dig, and it's going to dig down to the place where I landed to launch a further attack..."

With his mind racing, Aisha read Ting-Lu's fighting style in an instant.

I have to say, it was very simple.

But efficient!

Ting-Lu's level of durability and output was suitable for this kind of wide-open, simple, no-frills fighting style.

Ordinary Pokémon or Trainers won't be able to withstand its silky smooth moves.

This is the terror of the Numerical Monster.

But...

Aisha is no ordinary trainer!

"Too bad you can't learn Triple Axel."

Aisha whispered in Chien-Pao's ear with regret.

Without waiting for Chien-Pao's response, he immediately threw his arm and threw the bronze sword with an icy glow on its blade to the ground!

Icicle Crash!

As the bronze sword wrapped in a blizzard fell from the sky, Aisha couldn't help but sigh, saying, "This is really an Icicle 'Crash'."

Ting-Lu, who had dug a hole into the ground, prepared to launch a second attack from where Aisha had landed.

But wasn't Aisha waiting for it?

That's why Dark-type Pokémon blocked the exploration of his psychic power.

But Aisha had spent a lot of time in Unova with the Three Swordsmen, and one of the skills that Virizion had taught him was the ability to find his enemy's position by looking at every inch of the wind and grass around him.

"Hah!"

Aisha couldn't help but chuckle as he remembered the teachings of the elegant green deer swordsman.

By the way, Ting-Lu and Virizion are both deer.

It's a coincidence that I used the technique I learned from Virizion against Ting-Lu.

"Swish!"

The ice sword light fell from the sky, splitting the earth with a single blow, and the blade was pointed at Ting-Lu who was digging in the ground.

Ting-Lu probably didn't expect Aisha to use such a weird method to break its own moves, so it was caught off guard and let the bronze sword hit its back.

"Ow!"

The wail of the giant deer came from the ground.

Aisha didn't give it a single glance - he had already instantly moved back under the tree.

Raising his hand, aiming at the hole Ting-Lu had dug under the tree, Aisha grabbed the wrist of his left hand with his right hand, and the warm bead blossomed with a dazzling light.

"Overheat..."

In the next moment, raging flames roared out like a tsunami, and under Chi-Yu's deliberate control, they all poured into the tunnel that Ting-Lu had dug.

The flames raged underground.

Wherever it passed, the grass on the ground withered under the heat, and the water in the streams evaporated in an instant!

A moment later, hot flames erupted from the crack Chien-Pao had made in the ground, like the eruption of Mount Fuji.

Ting-Lu was pushed out of the ground by the flames.

Its huge figure flickered between the raging columns of fire, and then, it fell to the ground far away.

"Oooh..."

At the same time, Aisha's left hand stopped its flame output.

"Thank you for your hard work."

Aisha smiled at Chi-Yu.

The bead flashed sharply a few times, and looked like they were cheering.

Then, Aisha looked up at Ting-Lu.

At this moment, Ting-Lu was in a very bad situation.

On top of his tall body, which was made of clay, he was covered with cuts from sharp weapons, as well as burnt blackness from the flames.

The bronze tripod on its head was also cracked several times...

Aisha's bronze sword was still stuck in its back.

Because Aisha's attack was too fierce, it didn't have time to deal with the Chien-Pao on its back.

"Ow..."

The poorly conditioned and panting Ting-Lu struggled to swing its thick but broken limbs.

The stag that was as solid as the earth, even though it had suffered fatal injuries, it still retained the strength to stand up.

"Hoo!"

But the burn status that had been hanging on it was like a gangrene.

Along with a flame on one of Ting-Lu's wounds, the giant stag, whose body was as tall and majestic as a mountain, shook again.

With an unsteady foot, it almost fell down once again.

"..."

With a slip of its right hind leg, Ting-Lu was able to stabilize itself.

At this moment, the provocative effect given by bead had already passed, and the hostility in the stag's eyes gradually dissipated, restoring its original clarity and wisdom once again.

"..." With its head spinning, the giant stag's face showed an expression of emotion.

It looked towards the beautiful boy under the tree in the distance, and its heart was filled with admiration.

His combat thinking, logic, and strength were terrifyingly strong.

He was able to see through all of his battle logic at a glance, and quickly thought of a countermeasure to counteract it...

And he's forced himself into a situation where he has no way out, just like today.

He's too strong.

It's worthy of being the master that both the sword and the jade recognize and love.

This kind of strength is worthy of being recognized as the Four Treasure of Ruin.

No...

Rather, they, Four Treasure of Ruin, need to worry about whether or not they can keep up with their master's footsteps.

Then, Ting-Lu's expression became very complicated.

Its future master was powerful, but it was the one who got beaten up.

This is really...

The vessel couldn't help but laugh.

"Ow..."

With a low growl, Ting-Lu raised its head.

Then, it saw Aisha, who was standing under a tree in the distance, raise his left hand.

The bead glinted with an evil light as it renewed Ting-Lu's Taunt.

Ting-Lu: "..."

Its future master seems to be overly cautious.

"Heh-heh."

Over there, Instructor Ai sneered.

He didn't know what Ting-Lu was thinking, he only knew that Ting-Lu was bleeding out.

He had beaten him so hard that he was bloodied, but if he took advantage of the provocation to sleep and replenish his stats, there would be no place to talk about it.

Chi-Yu: "..."

Chi-Yu was as calm as water, but in fact it was laughing its ass off.

This handsome guy is obviously strong but too cautious.

Luckily, he didn't go over my head!

"Chien-Pao!"

Aisha called out to hi Bronze Sword.

"Give it the final blow, Icicle Crash!"

"Roar!"

This time, the voice that responded to him was no longer the usual crisp sound of the sword, but a cold, bone-chilling, panther's roar that could make one's body tremble.

"Swish!"

The bronze sword inserted in Ting-Lu's back pulled itself out, and in a flash of light, a slender, white-furred snow leopard appeared in mid-air with a tail as thick as a steel whip.

It opened its bloody mouth, showed the teeth made of the bronze sword that was broken into two pieces, and violently slashed on the back of the giant deer in front of it.

The effect was outstanding!

"Ow..."

Ting-Lu, whose health was already in the wind, was once again hit by Chien-Pao's all-out attack, and immediately fell to the ground with a weak foot.

"Roar!"

The snow leopard landed on the ground in a graceful manner and let out a long roar.

"Oooh~"

Seeing this, the hook bead on Aisha's wrist was also a flash of light, and the agile Chi-Yu appeared in its original form, swimming deftly around Aisha.

Chi-Yu's eyes flashed with the light of psychic power.

It lifted Aisha's body up with its mental power and floated with Aisha in the direction of Chien-Pao and Ting-Lu.

"Good job."

Once he landed on the ground, Aisha was in no hurry to throw the ball to subdue Ting-Lu.

He praised Chien-Pao first.

"Ho~"

Upon hearing this, the Snow Leopard that was standing on the mound with a cold and proud face instantly lost its high spirits.

With its eyes narrowed and smiling like a silly roe deer, it hurriedly ran over with its tail wagging, its head happily arching over Instructor Ai's chest.

"..."

Smoothly wrapped his arms around the silly leopard's head, while exercising his own outstanding cat jerking skills, Aisha fell into a deep thought.

If I remember correctly, leopards are felines.

What... This stupid leopard is just like a husky?

"Never mind..."

Aisha shook his head, no longer think about these things, as if the stupid leopard as a sword for so long, it is not easy to restore the original body, too excited.

"Well, next it's your turn."

Putting down Chien-Pao's head, Aisha smiled and looked at Ting-Lu beside her.

An Ultra Ball was thrown, and the fainted Ting-Lu, just like Chi-Yu at the time, entered into the ball, and completed the subjugation without a trace of resistance.

"Then..."

Receiving the Ultra Ball that Chi-Yu had picked up for himself with his Spirit Strong Thoughts, Aisha smiled and stroked its head.

"All that's left is Wo-Chien."

Aisha looked up to the sky and chanted the name of the last remaining Treasure of Ruin.

Uh, Wo-Chien.

I don't recognize this child.

What can it do?

A Grass-type Pokémon can't even learn Instructor Ai's favorite Sleep Powder!
