Chapter 49 The Final Battlefield, Mingyi's Targeted Tactics!
[Sakaki of the Earth: If Nephew Luo Chen has no objections, I will send the secret seasoning to your residence via "Dragon Express Global Delivery" in a few days.]
[Sakaki of the Earth: Nephew Luo Chen, if there's anything you want, just tell me. It's a way of making up for the years I, as your uncle, haven't been able to get to know you.]
[Yan Yanyan: No need, no need. Uncle Banmu, you've already solved my immediate problem by sending over the secret seasoning. How could I possibly trouble you any further?]
[Sakaki of the Earth: What did you just call me?]
[Yan Yanyan: Uncle Sakaki.]
[Sakaki of the Earth: Since you're calling me uncle, don't stand on ceremony. How about this, I'll transfer 5% of Rainbow Group's shares to you. Including the shares your father had before his death, you should get about 10%.]
[Daidi's Giovanni: You're a bit short on money to train your Pokémon, right? If you need any resources, just tell me, consider it an advance on your share of the profits. Don't be shy, and just don't hold a grudge against me later.]
Sakaki's last words had multiple meanings.
Whether speaking from the perspective of his uncle or the leader of the Rockets, there's nothing wrong with what he said.
"A 10% stake in Rainbow Group..."
Looking at the information on the screen, Li Luochen needed to process it.
In a small company, 10% equity is nothing.
But this is Rainbow Group, a large conglomerate with deep involvement in various fields!
In such large groups, the shareholding is so dispersed that, apart from the original shareholders, very few people can reach double digits.
A 10% stake is already the threshold for becoming a major shareholder.
This shows that Sakaki truly considers him one of his own.
I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing...
Li Luochen closed his phone and looked at Jiadeliya beside him: "Baby, what's the maximum percentage of Rainbow Group shares your family owns?"
"Three percent, what's wrong?"
Cattleya answered without hesitation, then immediately asked a question in return.
"It's nothing, just curious."
Li Luochen shook his head.
Even a large family like the Cattleya only owns 3% of the shares, yet my own father owns 5%. I can't even imagine what kind of relationship they had when they were alive.
Speaking of which...
Does this mean he's able to get along with both the legitimate and criminal worlds?
Thinking about his status as a god-uncle and maternal uncle, Li Luochen felt that he could walk sideways in Guandu.
Forget it, I'd better not make a fuss about it.
He is no longer the same person he was in high school; he is now focused on improving his own abilities.
"Chenbao, what are your plans for later?"
After Mingyi finished eating and drinking, the first thing she did after putting down her chopsticks was to ask about Li Luochen's schedule.
"I'll cram a little more at noon to prepare for the finals this afternoon."
Li Luochen rubbed the four Poké Balls at his waist. Although they were powerful, Mingyi was, after all, the "protagonist," and he still had to adjust her to her best condition.
Mingyi was speechless: "Dude, you already have such an advantage in attributes, why do you still need to prepare?"
Li Luochen shrugged: "Mainly because I just happened to have researched some new recipes, so I'll add some extra food for them when I get back."
"A top-tier cultivator, please let me cling to your coattails!"
"Next time, Piding."
"Get lost!"
……
……
In the afternoon, the final competition began as scheduled.
The finals were not held in a dimly lit stadium, but were moved to a spacious playground.
Furthermore, the school specially invited the well-known commentator Nirvana to commentate on the final of this exchange competition for freshmen.
This is unprecedented, and it shows how much the school cares about this final.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I am your master commentator Nirvana. This is our first time commentating on a university student match, so please bear with us!"
Nirvana clapped in the commentary booth, making a soft "clap clap" sound.
Two youthful figures emerged simultaneously from the contestant passages on both sides.
"Next, let me introduce our two finalists! To my left is Ms. Mingyi, an exchange student from the Unova region, who is known as the world's little movie queen!"
[Ms. Mingyi! I'm your fan! (Pounces on you)]
【Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Why does Rongcheng University just not let outsiders in? Can't I even be an unofficial student? (crying)】
【Mother!】
[Where did this junior come from? Get him out of here!]
"And to my right is Li Luochen, the top scorer in Fujian Province's college entrance examination from the Donghuang region! The new head of the Minrong Martial Arts Academy, hailed as the strongest of the new generation in Rongcheng!"
[Isn't this Yu Longdu's eldest nephew?]
[Akabo just promoted him to admiral recently!]
[It seems Mingyi and he are following each other on social media!]
I'm so envious!
"Two Pokémon can be used in the final. If the two players have no objections, they can start the battle after communicating."
Nirvana announced the rules, and the photographers pointed their cameras at the two of them.
"Chenbao, I've prepared a lot for this final battle~ If I win this battle, how about you prioritize equipping me with the training program next month? Of course, I'll still pay for it~"
Mingyi knew that Li Luochen was a breeder, and a certified one at that, so she thought this was a good way to bring the two of them closer.
Li Luochen readily agreed, and then told Mingyi about his bet: "No problem, if I win, how about I come and help out at the Minrong Dojo for a few days?"
[Holy crap! Should I send my sister to help out at the dojo? I love that!]
[Is there a Minrong Taoist Temple in Donghuang area, Fujian Province? I absolutely have to go!]
[Friends from other areas, don't bother trying; customs in Donghuang are very strict lately.]
【Damn it, meow!】
"Okay~ Then Chenbao, you'll have to go all out to have a chance of defeating me~"
Mingyi winked and took out the fourth Poké Ball from her waist.
This is a Poké Ball that has never appeared before; it seems to have been transported from another region.
"This is also my good partner~ Chenbao, be careful~"
Mingyi assumed a baseball pitching stance, gathered her strength, and then threw the ball out with all her might!
"Hakuron, it's your turn!"
Facing Mingyi's new partner, Li Luochen sent out Hakron, the weakest member of his team.
This left many people puzzled.
Why not send out Blaze, Gullton, or Charizard?
Those three are clearly stronger, right?
The Poké Ball opened in mid-air.
That's a Pokémon that looks a bit like a chandelier.
The curved, lampstand-like arm burned with a deep, eerie purple flame, while the small tassel atop its head ignited a flame that burned even more intensely.
Its yellow eyes have no pupils, making it look rather intimidating.
Pokémon: Chandelure
[Attributes: Ghost, Fire]
[Level: 40]
[Feature: Fire]
[Moves: Melt (inherited), Clear Smoke (inherited), Shadow Ball, others omitted]
Hozuki, the Crystal Chandelier Spirit!
With its ignite ability, it effectively shuts down all the fire-type moves in Li Luochen's team, and its ghost-type moves prevent Guleton from fully utilizing its fighting-type moves!
