Chapter 407: Chapter 231: Shikigami’s Great Battle, The Arrogance of a Foreign Sorcerer_2
[It’s astounded that you did not summon that powerful Shikigami girl from the rumors, instead, you summoned eighteen little demons.]
[These eighteen little demon Shikigamis seem substantial, indicating they’re no less powerful.]
[However, according to what a Yin Yang Master shared, you only summoned that girl Shikigami during your battle in Fugang City. In such a fierce battle, who would not muster all their strength?]
[Hence, it’s either you don’t possess any other Shikigami, or your other Shikigamis are too weak to make a difference in a fierce battle, so that girl Shikigami is the only viable one you can summon...]
[Its original plan was to resort to Kappa in the first bout, using Kappa’s remarkable defense to at least save face, even though it knew it would lose the first match.]
[For the following two matches, you would simply have to surrender...]
[...]
[The adversary Yin Yang Master took a deep breath, made the seal, muttered incantations, and commanded Kappa to advance the attack...]
[Unlike the last time when you used a bit of your spiritual essence for summoning, the eighteen brand-new ’little devils’ had substantial forms. They looked fierce, swinging their weapons in the dark mist, as if they were reapers climbed up from hell.]
[You shook your bell, and the eighteen little devils cornered Kappa...]
[Just as Kappa was about to launch an attack, it found itself facing countless sharp weapons. Forced into a corner, the enemy Yin Yang Master could only command Kappa to defend.]
[It retracted its head and limbs into the hard shell, leaving no flesh exposed.]
[The dense barrage of weapons hammered onto the shell, creating chaotic clanging sounds.]
[Kappa, shrouded in green hairs, couldn’t move an inch in its defensive shell, letting the little devils brandish their weapons; their clanging sounds filled the air.]
[Seeing this, the little devils increased the intensity of attacks, but no weapon could penetrate Kappa’s shell...]
[At first, the enemy Yin Yang Master was worried, but seeing that the little devils’ attacks have no effect, his heart settled.]
[He loudly explained to you that foreign magicians might not have come across this kind of Shikigami, Kappa is a water sprite. This monster is not known for its attack power, but for its formidable defense.]
[I wonder if the foreign magician can breach Kappa’s defense and come up with a strategy for the Shikigami assault?]
"Heh... this guy dares to play tricks?"
Lin Xun had already figured out a way to win, but was just about to implement it when the enemy taunted him.
The tactic was simple. As outlined in the rules, victory is won by either crippling the enemy’s Shikigami or getting it out of the circle.
With Kappa acting like a turtle in its shell, only receiving attacks and not returning any, the little devils didn’t have a way to incapacitate it for the moment.
But the little devils could easily win if they picked up this ’turtle shell’ and threw it out of the circle.
He was intending to win bloodlessly, but the enemy Yin Yang Master’s Shikigami was not brilliant, though he did have a knack for underhanded tactics, no wonder he called himself a Yin Yang Master.
Wouldn’t it be too rewarding to end his games too easily?
Lin Xun opened up his panel and strewn a series of heavy weaponry on the ground.
Among them were ’Ancient Dragon Tooth Mace’, ’Thunder Dragon Staff Spear’, ’Chain Blade - Call of the Underworld’, ’Golden Roc Fierce Bird Claw’, ’Sleeve Sword - Widow-Maker’...
However, he didn’t reveal the ’Tachi - Demon Cleaver of Unohana’ inherited by the Otani Family, keeping it up his sleeve.
[You continuously tossed out various peculiar weapons onto the ground, all making clattering noises.]
[Each time you threw down a weapon that appeared powerful, it was as if you were hammering the enemy Yin Yang Master’s heart, causing him to feel terrified.]
[The ’Fire Worshiping Senior Yin Yang Master’ carefully asked why the foreign magician would do such a thing?]
[You glanced at him, and loudly educated him that today he will learn the first lesson in Shikigami assault: force produces miracles!]
[Upon your words, the little devils stopped their besiegement, retreated to your side, dropped their worn-out weapons and picked up the shining, high-quality ones from the ground.]
[With their teeth bared and claws brandished, they rushed toward Kappa again...]
[To the astonishment of the assembled Yin Yang Masters, screams of pain from Kappa came from within the circle of the little devils. Soon, green-colored blood flooded the stage.]
[When the little devils retreated, Kappa had become a pile of pulp, unrecognizable, clearly dead beyond redemption.]
[You looked at the referee below the stage, seeing his twitching mouth, it took quite a while for him to reluctantly announce...]
[The first bout of Shikigami duel, the foreign magician is victorious!]
[Below the stage, the Yin Yang Masters were dumbfounded, completely stunned.]
[The foreign magician, through his vivid teaching, had opened a new door to the world of Shikigami.]
[You shook the bell again, and the hopping little devils returned all the strange weapons to you, then vanished without a trace...]
[On the other side of the stage, the Yin Yang Master’s face was alternating between green and white. Pointing at you, he stuttered in horror.]
[The referee had to remind him several times before he snapped out of it. From his anguished expression, it was evident he was devastated to lose a Kappa.]
[The ’Fire Worshiping Senior Yin Yang Master’ glared at you, his dark pupils filled with rage. He howled that since the foreign magician wasn’t showing mercy, don’t blame him for being ruthless!]
[Without waiting for the referee to speak, he formed the seal, muttered the incantation, and summoned a powerful demon Shikigami...]
