  After spending the night at the Pokémon Center, Jun Shafeng returned to the Miare Tournament early the next morning. 

 By then, he was considered a dark horse with the potential to reach the quarterfinals. 

 Many in the arena cheered him on. 

 Soon, the host, aboard a Desert Dragonfly, ascended mid-air.  

"Dear audience, dear contestants, today we will determine the new champion of the Miare Tournament. The new champion will qualify to challenge the Four Heavenly Kings and even have the chance to face the champion," the 

 host announced. 

 A figure appeared above the judges' podium, causing many in the Kalos region to scream. 

 She was the Kalos champion, Kaluni.  Beside her was a female Gardevoir.  Besides being a champion, Kaluni was also a movie star. 

 As a result, she was incredibly popular, and practically everyone in Kalos knew her.

  Kaluni offered a few words of encouragement, and then the competition officially began. 

 The large computer screen automatically screened the contestants. 

 The first group consisted of a trainer from Sinnoh, facing a trainer from Baike City in Kalos. 

 The Pokémon fielded by both teams were around level 70. 

 The two sides engaged in a fierce, prolonged battle. 

 After a hard-fought battle, the trainer from Baike City ultimately emerged victorious.  Soon, the computer began screening the second group. 

 This time, it was finally Jun Shafeng's turn, and his opponent was a trainer from Biyi City in the Kalos region.  

Jun Shafeng stepped onto the stage, only to be met by a trainer wearing a red travel jacket. 

 They exchanged glances and tossed their Poké Balls 

 in unison. The two Poké Balls collided in mid-air. 

 Two flashes of red light appeared, and both teams' 

 Pokémon were released. Jun Shafeng sent out a stoic, while the opponent's Pokémon was a Nightmare. 

 Jun Shafeng had seen this trainer in battle and knew that Nightmare was his ace, reaching level 80. 

 Aside from Nightmare, his other Pokémon were around level 60, 

 with none exceeding level 70. 

 This demonstrated a clear imbalance in strength.  

"It seems you sent out this Night Darkling right from the start, intending to use it to defeat all my Pokémon?" 

 the opposing trainer said after hearing this.  

"My name is Charlie. The joy of battle isn't winning, but the enjoyment of the battle itself. I know my team might not be able to completely defeat you, but even so, I want to give it my all. 

 If you can defeat me, Night Darkling, I'll voluntarily forfeit." 

 Jun Shafeng couldn't help but smile after hearing the words of the trainer named Charlie. He had never met such an interesting person. 

 "Dajia, make good use of your newfound skills in this battle." 

 Everyone's mouths dropped open in excitement. 

 Charlie commanded Night Darkling. 

 "Use Will-O'-Wisp!" 

 Instantly, the will-o'-spray rushed towards Dajia. 

 Dajia unhesitatingly used Diamond Shield and defensive measures to block the will-o'-spray attack. 

 After successfully resisting the will-o'-spray, 

 Night Darkling unleashed a Shadow Fist, sending Dajia flying.  

However, protected by the Diamond Shield, Dajia suffered only minor injuries. 

 The Diamond Shield can block 80% of damage. 

 Furthermore, Dajia's inherent defense was also very strong, so the Night Dark Demon's shadows didn't suffer too serious damage. 

 Charlie, seeing Dajia's impressive defense, immediately ordered the Night Dark Demon to use hypnosis. 

 Jun Shafeng, upon seeing this, immediately revealed a look of astonishment. 

 Just as the hypnosis was about to strike Dajia, Dajia performed a Moon Step, instantly dodging the hypnosis.  

Then, he unleashed a horn attack,  knocking the Night Dark Demon back.  Just as he was about to fly out of the arena, the Night Dark Demon used Shadow Claws, firmly grasping the arena. 

 Charlie, observing this, hurriedly said, 

 "Use Shadow Ball to block Dajia's movements, then use Hypnosis." 

 Seeing this, the Night Dark Demon immediately created several Shadow Balls and hurled them at Dajia.  

Facing the Night Dark Demon's attacks, Da Jia used his full Moon Energy, along with the protection of his Diamond Shield. Although a few Shadow Balls occasionally struck, the damage was minimal. 

 However, his movements were gradually blocked. At this moment, the Night Dark Demon immediately unleashed his Hypnosis.

  Unable to dodge, Da Jia was instantly struck. 

 The Night Dark Demon seized the opportunity to unleash his Nightmare ability. 

 Trapped in a nightmare, Da Jia's strength gradually drained away. 

 Seeing this, Jun Shafeng asked the referee to declare Da Jia defeated. He 

 then reclaimed Da Jia.  

"Your Night Demon is indeed formidable, but in that case, I'll send in my trump card." 

 Jun Shafeng threw a Poké Ball and summoned Arcanine.  

Arcanine roared with such force that the Night Demon trembled. 

 Simultaneously, Arcanine unleashed his Conqueror's Haki,  

suppressing the Night Demon's level to 70.
