Chapter 1329 The Third Battle
[You Lost!]
[Do you want to have a rematch against Tang Shaoyang?] [Yes/No?]
[A rematch will consume three God Shards. You will get the three God Shards back if you win with an additional God Shard as a reward. You will lose the three God Shards if you lose the rematch!]
Ecanus was in shock, looking at the screen in front of him in shock. He still could not believe that he lost the fight one-sidedly. Especially against a newbie. The newbie term was for someone who just reached the Demi-God Rank and tried the Trial of God. Yet he was completely countered and killed in a matter of seconds.
He recalled his opponent\'s tactic against him, purposely getting pierced by his spear and catching him off guard before killing him cleanly. Giving him no chance to fight back, at all. For the first time ever since he started the Trial of God Rank he faced a rematch screen.
There was no hesitation as he tapped yes. Ecanus was confident that he would win against the newbie. He was different from the others where he would enter the arena when he upgraded his power. He just got a new class that was suitable for him. That was what made him confident to win, his fourth class.
Ecanus did not forget to add provocation, in case the newbie declined the rematch. He could not do anything if the opposite party declined the rematch. A cheap provocation usually worked against the newbie. Deep inside, he was burning with determination to pay back the humiliation.
[Tang Shaoyang accepted the challenge!]
[You have three minutes to prepare for the battle! (02:59)]
[Are you ready?]
Ecanus tapped "Ready" without hesitation. He was well-equipped and mentally ready to have a rematch. He kept reminding himself not to underestimate the newbie. His surroundings changed, returning to the red plain.
The moment he was teleported into the Red Plain, he realized his mistake. He saw Tang Shaoyang was still in his Bloodline Transformation. He kept reminding himself not to underestimate, but he forgot to use Bloodline Transformation in the preparation time.
Ecanus immediately used his Bloodline Transformation. Trying not to make the same mistake as the previous battle. His transformation took ten seconds, and he lost sight of Tang Shaoyang as his vision returned.
But he quickly sensed someone was behind him. He turned around and what greeted him was a giant fist, covered in the black-gold terrifying energy. It was not the time to think what kind of energy it was because his doom was near. His opponent used his own strategy against him, and that was what angered him the most. It was as if his opponent mocked him.
In a matter of one second, he formed an energy barrier and also a Wind Elemental Shield. His quick reaction saved his life. Even if the fist crushed the Wind Elemental Shield and energy barrier. It would still minimize the damage to him.
However, Ecanus could not believe what happened next as the space cracked right in front of him. The space crack was bigger than the first itself, and he then noticed the same space crack behind him. Again, he was caught off guard by his opponent.
The black-gold fist went through the space crack and hit his back. He felt like his bones and organs were crushed by the fist. He passed out for a moment. When he opened his eyes again, he was right in front of his opponent.
Tang Shaoyang was holding Ecanus\' head. Ecanus was dangling in the air, and he wasted no time, unlike Ecanus. After Heavenly Crushing Strike, he followed with Heavenly Crushing grasp. Tang Shaoyang popped Ecanus\' head just like a watermelon.
[You won!]
[You have obtained three God Shards!]
[God Shard: 4]
Tang Shaoyang smiled at the number of the God Shard he had. It was his first day, and he already got four God Shards. Six more God Shards and he could advance to the God Rank. Of course, he would not immediately use the ten God Shards to advance. He wanted to gather as many God Shards as possible. At least, he would gather the God Shard until he was left with one try.
\'Challenge me again and give me more God Shard,\' He thought to himself, waiting for the rematch notification to pop out.
That was the reason he tried to win the battle as fast as he could. Losing without being able to do anything must be infuriating. Tang Shaoyang tried to make Ecanus think that he could win if not for the surprise attack. If they had a long fight, Ecanus would have realized the gap between them. And in the third rematch, he wanted to have a proper match. However, the waiting was for nothing as there was no rematch notification.
"Tch. It seems I scare him," He clicked his tongue after waiting for two minutes, "What did I do wrong? Maybe the portal made him wary of me."
Tang Shaoyang shrugged and queued for another battle. The queue time was up, and yet the System did not teleport him out of the Red Plain. He was still in the arena, meaning he could wait here, "But can I go back?" If the queue time was too long, waiting back at his home would be much better than here for sure.
"Let\'s wait for ten minutes," He muttered while maintaining the bloodline transformation. Aside from the additional three God Shards, he learned something new for the trial. He could use Bloodline Transformation before entering the battle. He realized that the preparation time was more than just equipment, \'Should I use True Dragon Transformation and end the battle as quickly as possible?\'
His opponent might enter the battle with the bloodline transformation. If he entered the battle with True Dragon Transformation, he might catch his opponent off guard and finish them in a few attacks. He was tempted with the idea, but then he decided not to.
"There\'s more important than the God Shard, the experience," He muttered in a low voice. The experience he talked about was not something that he got by killing zombies and monsters. It was an experience of fighting, learning how the other Demi-God Rank fought. Experiencing some abilities he never faced before might benefit him in the future.
The queue time entered six minutes, and Tang Shaoyang already thought of returning home. But then the queue popped out.
[You have found an opponent!]
[Are you ready to battle? (04:59)] [Accept]
[If you fail to accept the battle in five minutes, you will receive a penalty.]
[Penalty: You are not able to queue for the trial for three hours!]
Tang Shaoyang tapped accept in the blink of an eye. He just wanted to enter the battle as quickly as possible. While he got four God Shards in the first battle, he did not get the thrill of fighting. It was just a one-sided beating. He wanted to have a proper fight this time.
[Your opponent is Andus of Battelon World!]
[You have three minutes to prepare for the battle! (02:59)!] [Ready!]
[Choose ready if you are ready for the battle!]
His hand stopped midair as he was about to tap "Ready", frowning his eyes as he carefully read the first part of the notification. It was a new name, but he felt like the world was familiar, "Andus of Battelon World… Have I heard the name before?" He muttered in a low voice.
[Do you have memory loss or what? It\'s the same world as your first opponent.] Avyn reminded him inside his head.
It clicked after hearing Avyn. Ecanus is also from Battelon, also this Andus guy. This made him curious whether his third opponent would be from Battelon as well.
[Andus is ready for the battle!]
"Get ready for attack or to attack," He muttered in a low voice, assuming his opponent would surprise attack him. Also assuming his opponent activated The Bloodline Transformation before entering the battle. Then Tang Shaoyang tapped "Ready".
[Welcome to the Red Plain!]
[Kill or force your opponent to surrender to win the battle!]
[You will receive the God Shard upon winning the battle!]
There was no teleportation, but the same notification as the previous battle popped out, "I am already in the Red Plain though," He chuckled before he looked for his opponent.
As Tang Shaoyang predicted, his opponent entered the battle with the Bloodline Transformation. He focused on the number above his opponent which was "17". His opponent was a giant brown-red bear, holding a giant saber and a shield. It looked funny that the bear had a saber and a shield instead of using their claw to fight.
As Tang Shaoyang found his opponent, his opponent also found him. The five-meter brown-red bear put the saber and the shield on the back before it rushed toward him on four. Each step of it caused a shake on the ground.
Tang Shaoyang could feel the shaking ground on his feet, getting stronger and stronger. As the distance between close to a hundred meters, the bear leaped into the air. The bear raised both paws to the air as the red lightning gathered in its paws. Then the five-meter figure rocketed down to the ground, slamming his paw on Tang Shaoyang.
Boom!
The red lightning burst out and went on a rampage. The brown-red bear looked down as his paw was blocked by the Heavenly Tortoise Shell. The bear kicked the shell, pushing him upward as he pulled out the saber. He raised the saber to the air as the red lightning gathered in the saber before bringing it down to strike Tang Shaoyang.
Tang Shaoyang was holding his sword, ready to counter the bear after the saber hit the shell. He expected the shell to block off the saber, but to his surprise, the saber cut through the Heavenly Tortoise Shell.
