Imperial Uy Trainer Academy - Battle Arena No. 1
A little after 9 AM, both sides of the battlefield were already packed with people, and many even arrived on Flying-type Pokémon, h in the air to get a better view.
Ever since Kaide accepted the challenge yesterday, everyoerested in this battle had arrived early.
But even they uimated the excitement surrounding the match between Julian and Kaide. Fet about ing at 9 AM—even if you arrived at 8 AM, you might not have gotten a good spot.
"Isn't the match supposed to start at 10? It's barely past 9, and there's already this many people?"
Oskirts of the crowd, a few students who thought they had arrived early looked at each other in disbelief. They couldn't evehe battlefield—only a sea of people. How were they supposed to watch the battle?
And why did the sky seem so dark?
Looking up, they quickly realized why—tless Flying-type Pokémon hovered above, packed so dehat they blocked out the sunlight. Some of the rger ones even carried multiple trainers on their backs.
"Snacks, drinks, bottled water—anyone need some?"
"Binocurs, folding stools—get them here!"
Some clever students from the business academy weren't about to miss this money-making opportunity. They set up shht there, selling whatever they could. Even though they wouldn't make much, they were doing it for fun.
"How much for a bag of sunflower seeds?"
"1,000 bucks per bag."
"What the hell? That's robbery!"
"I'm from the business academy."
"Oh, that expins it."
By around 9:50, Prince Kaide had arrived at the battlefield, apanied by over a dozen trainers from Gallia.
Looking at the other side of the field and not seeing Julia, Kaide didn't say anything. He simply stood there quietly, waiting for the clock to hit 10.
However, the tall blonde woman beside him frowned. "This Julian sure is arrogant, making Prince Kaide wait for him."
In her eyes, Julian should have arrived an hour earlier to wait for Kaide.
Among Kaide's ente, Richard stood with his hands ed in bandages, his head lowered, his expression dark. No oiced the look of hatred in his eyes as he g Kaide.
To the public, Kaide was challenging Julian on Richard's behalf, standing up for him.
But Richard khe truth—Kaide wasn't doing this for him at all. He was doing it for the honor of the Gallian royal family.
In Kaide's eyes, Richard was insignifit. Despite being a member of the royal family, he ainfully aware that, in Kaide's eyes, he ranked even lower than that blonde woman.
As the cloeared 10, Julian finally arrived at the battlefield.
The uy took this match very seriously. They had assigned multiple teachers to maintain order and eve up a live broadcast of the match.
Might as well use this opportunity to boost the uy's official social media at.
Kaide looked at Julian, and Julia his gaze.
To be fair, Kaide was quite good-looking. His face had the sharp, chiseled features of an a Greek statue—rugged yet refined. His violet eyes added a touystery, making his presence even more striking.
"3v3 or 6v6?"
Frank, ag as the referee, asked.
Julian g Frank suspiciously. He was a veteran Trainer—ae, why did he always seem to enjoy being a referee?
Frank: 'School's orders, plus, I get a bonus'
"You decide," Julian said.
"3v3," Kaide replied.
To him, it didn't matter whether it was three or six Pokémon—he was fident he would wiher way. Choosing 3v3 simply meant a quicker victory.
tally, that was exactly what Julian wanted. His mi was the same—since he was going to win anyway, he might as well get it over with.
Frank took out a . "Heads, blue side sends out Pokémon first. Tails, red side goes first."
Julian was on the blue side.
The nded on tails, that meant Kaide had to send out his Pokémon first.
This made Julian, who was about to take out his Poké Ball, startled for a moment, with a slightly surprised expression on his face.
For once, luck was on his side.
As Kaide threw out his Poké Ball, a bright fsh of white light revealed a humanoid Pokémon standing otlefield.

Bisharp was the evolved form of Pawniard, a Pokémon native to Babath. While Babath did restrict the distribution of Pawniard, they weren't overly strict—trainers from other tries could still obtain them for the right price.
However, they strictly trolled any Pawniard above Green-tier potential.
If not fallia being one of the top allies of their "big brother," Celestria, there was no way they would have allowed a -tier Pawniard to be sent to Gallia.
Even in Babath, that level of potential was rare.
Bisharp could be described as a walking arsenal—every part of its body was a oe being a Dark/Steel-type, its physical structure gave it formidable hand-to-hand bat abilities as well.
"That Pokémon has such a fierce look in its eyes."
"Anyone here strong enough to tell what level it is?"
"Probably around the early Elite level."
"I wonder okémon King Julian will send out?"
"Most likely Dragonite. As far as we know, that's his oe-level Pokémon."
Julian quickly provided an answer. As he threw out his Poké Ball, he gnced bad said:
"Let's try to this up in thirty minutes, guys."
In the back, Slowking was holding a phone, live-streaming the mat TikTok.
The number of viewers soared past 50 million within moments—and it kept climbing.
"Prince Kaide is so handsome! What do I do? I think I'm switg sides!"
"Get out of here, we've got another lovestruck fool in chat!"
"Thirty minutes? King Julian must be bragging."
"When has king Julian ever failed to back up his words?"
Under everyone's gaze, Julian released his Pokémon.
