Gacha Summoner - Chapter 18 Yue Yang Vs Xue Tan Lang
Unlike the match against Yue Tian, in this match against Xue Tan Lang both sides were silent while they face off with each others without uttering any nonsense.
Even without hearing what Xue Tan Lang want to said, Yue Yang somehow was able to understand what this ice cube guy want to conveyed even without him saying a word.
‘If you want to married my elder sister then you better prove your worth’. It was probably along this kind of line.
Even though the guy was cold and quiet, Yue Yang was actually prefered to get along better with this guy compared to his brothers in Yue clan.
‘Well, I better work hard in this match to make this guy acknowledge me’, though Yue Yang while he unsheathed his [Hestia Knife].
“Now that both sides ready, I hereby announce that the match begin!”, shout the referee.
Once the match start, Xue Tan Lang didn’t immediately summoned his contracted beast like Yue Tian, but instead he move around in extremely fast fashion while at the same time trying to avoid Yue Yang.
In Yue Yang’s previous match against Yue Tian, Xue Tan Lang already found out that in terms of speed, he was outmatched by Yue Yang, thus staying idle in one place like Yue Tian was no different from courting death.
While Xue Tan Lang was moving around in fast speed, he was also trying to summoned his beast. Attempting to summoned contracted beast while moving around was an extremely difficult thing even for expert, but Xue Tan Lang was not a run of the mill expert since he received guidance as Xue clan’s future leader since very young age, not to mention he was also accepted as a direct disciple by one of the Eastern Ocean Crystal Palace Sect higher up.
While he ran around in fast speed while trying to summoned his contracted beast at the same time, Xue Tan Lang also unleashed some freezing technique in order to constrict and slow down Yue Yang’s speed.
Since all of Xue Tan Lang’s opponents previously were quite weak, the spectators can’t see Xue Tan Lang’s true strength and can only estimate his limit.
Only in this match against Yue Yang, were they able to witness the true capabilities of Xue Tan Lang.
The fact that Xue Tan Lang managed to simultaneously carry out three different action in this match was able to awe the audiences.
Elders from Xue clan and Eastern Ocean Crystal Palace Sect especially was quite proud by Xue Tan Lang’s feat.
Actually, even if Xue Tan Lang were to run around and spread his ice technique to slow Yue Yang down, it was all futile since Yue Yang’s speed when using [Shunpo] was much higher.
However, in order to save face for his future brother in law, Yue Yang restrain the usage of [Shunpo] for now, and only chase Xue Tan Lang around using ordinary speed.
Several seconds later, Xue Tan Lang managed to summoned his contracted beast, a Level 1 Silver rank Storm Giant.
Immediately, Xue Tan Lang order his summoned beast to used its freezing ability in full power and spread it to the whole ring and made it became ice ring, thus almost made Yue Yang’s slip.
‘Dammit, what a sly guy. I almost slip and made a fool out of myself in front of such large people’ though Yue Yang sweating.
After the whole ring became the world of ice, Xue Tan Lang was not satisfied and he summoned his guardian beast.
He know that counting on Storm Giant alone, he will not be able to defeat Yue Yang since this contracted beast was specialized in ice and freezing abilities to restrain its opponents, while its personal speed was slow because of its large size. With its slow speed, it will not be able to touch even Yue Yang’s clothes, thus Xue Tan Lang summoned his guardian beast while he order the Storm Giant to protected him.
Xue Tan Lang’s guardian beast, Violent Tornado, had a very fast speed and also high offensive power. With the combination of Storm Giant that able to restrain Yue Yang’s fast speed coupled with Violent Tornado with fast movement speed to attack Yue Yang, Xue Tan Lang was more assured of his chance to beat Yue Yang.
However, this time Yue Yang feel that he already give Xue Tan Lang enough face since he was able to showcase such amazing feat in large audience.
When he was about to be surrounded by large area of ice, Yue Yang immediately use [Shunpo]. Even if Yue Yang was almost slip previously, it will not be able to affected [Shunpo] since this movement technique only need one initial step to move at the target location.
Yue Yang want to move to Xue Tan Lang’s side only to found out that Xue Tan Lang already made himself surrounded by a storm of hail, thus made Yue Yang unable to approach him.
Turn out Xue Tan Lang already prepared his last defense countermeasured in case Yue Yang attacked him out of nowhere.
“Hohoho, this lad was quite ingenious. Did this hail perhaps appear from the combination of Storm Giant’s ice ability and Violent Tornado’s wind ability? To think that he managed to come up with such technique, as expected from future leader of Xue clan”, said Jun Wu You toward Xue clan master.
“Haha, please don’t flatter this child too much. Actually he come up with this Hail Barrier like technique few months ago in order to defeat Yan Po Jun and Feng Qing Sha, his rivals since they were of the same generation. As you can see, it was still quite rough, and the energy consumption was too high. His defeat was actually already set in stone. In case Yue Yang decide to stall for time, my son will sooner or later run out of gas, but if he decide to cancelled this Hail Barrier, Yue Yang will immediately use his overwhelming speed to get near him and defeat Xue Tan Lang in close combat”, said Xue clan master while he analysed the fight before him.
If Xue clan master was already know about his son’s predicament, then Xue Tan Lang in question that personally made this technique will also know about his technique weakness.
The moment Yue Yang reveal his movement technique right in front of him, Xue Tan Lang know that the match result was already sealed.
He was trying to come up with a way to get out of this situation, but it was futile. Only now he remember one of his master’s teaching, that he should focus on one aspect of combat speciality, be it speed, attack, defense, support, or other focus and train it to the extreme.
When his speciality already trained to the extreme, it will gave him overwhelming advantage over his opponents.
At that time, Xue Tan Lang had not completely comprehended his master’s teaching, but now that Xue Tan Lang saw Yue Yang and his extreme speed, he finally realize what his master means.
Yue Yang only used a mere basic blade technique and some simple punch as his offensive technique, but he always emerged victorius until now because he always relied on his extreme speed.
Meanwhile, as Xue clan’s direct descendant and direct disciple of renown four great sect, Xue Tan Lang was driven to such hopeless situation. Even though he possessed variety of technique, those so called technique will be useless when he already run out of fumes to used them.
After Xue Tan Lang realize this, he canceled his Hail Barrier technique since he will ran out of energy.
“Elder, I surrender”, said Xue Tan Lang while he raised his hand.
After the referee receive acknowledgment from elder Yue Hai, he immediately announce the match result, with Yue Yang as the winner.
Although the audiences feel a bit disappointed since the fight conclusion was a bit anti dramatic, they were still excited nonetheless by the display of Xue Tan Lang and Yue Yang’s ability.
Especially Xue Tan Lang’s ingenuity in creating a new combat technique by himself at the age of 10, even though he was lost, the audiences still respect him very much.
When Xue Tan Lang and Yue Yang walk down from the ring, Xue Tan Lang said something to Yue Yang.
“This time I’ll admit my loss. Although it was frustrating, I’ll acknowledge the fact that you possessed qualification to become my sister’s fianc. However, please mark my word that this loss was temporary and I’ll challenge you again in the future”, said Xue Tan Lang in his usual cold and quet voice.
“Anytime, brother in law”, said Yue Yang with a bit of smile.
“Don’t call me brother in law! You still need my elder sister’s acknowledgement since it looks like she also didn’t know about this engagement, not to mention you still had an obstacle in the form of Princess Qian Qian”, said Xue Tan Lang with a snort before he walk away from Yue Yang.
Before the final match, Yue Yang was given a bit of time to rest since he just finished his match against Xue Tan Lang. He plan to maximized his resting time since the usage of [Shunpo] drain his energy for a bit.
In the match against the tigress, he plan to thoroughly awe her and made her acknowledge his betrothment with Xue Wu Xia, while at the same time mark his presence to her heart by defeating her, since she was quite a battle freak who didn’t like to lose, especially to someone of her age.
Thinking about the expression of the infuriated tigress when he defeated her, Yue Yang can’t help but smile in anticipation.
