Chapter 120 - Chapter 120: You and I on a Blind Date?

🤗 Please if you find any incorrect names let me know in comments so I can fix them 

Gu Xuanyue had only one Pokémon left. Unless she could bring out a Champion-level Pokémon now, Gu Xuanyue was sure to lose.

She definitely couldn't bring out a Champion-level Pokémon. After all, she was barely eighteen years old. Not everyone, like Jiang Chen, possessed a Champion-level Pokémon so early.

Relying solely on training, even a genius trainer would need to be around thirty years old to cultivate a Champion-level Pokémon.

Gu Xuanyue's last Pokémon was Froslass. Jiang Chen sent out Meowstic (male).

Jiang Chen's Meowstic (male) was caught back in school. It wasn't weak now, having the strength of a Quasi-Elite Four, Rank Eight. It wasn't impossible to fight this Froslass, which was a Quasi-Elite Four, Rank Nine.

"Are you doing this on purpose?"

Gu Xuanyue asked Jiang Chen.

"What?"

Hearing Gu Xuanyue's words, Jiang Chen was a little puzzled.

"Always using Pokémon with a type disadvantage against me."

Previously, Dragonite and Garchomp, which one didn't have a type disadvantage? Only Metagross had a type advantage. Now, Meowstic (male) facing Froslass also had a type disadvantage.

Froslass, in addition to being Ice-type, was also Ghost-type, and Ghost-type perfectly countered Psychic-type.

"You're overthinking it."

Jiang Chen shook his head.

The inarticulate Gu Xuanyue didn't say much more, but she felt quite annoyed. Jiang Chen using Pokémon with a type disadvantage, wasn't that looking down on her?

The key was that Jiang Chen still won every time, which was unbearable.

"Shadow Ball."

Gu Xuanyue said faintly.

She liked Ice-type, but in a type-advantage situation, it would be foolish not to use a move that countered the opponent.

So Gu Xuanyue directly had Froslass use a Ghost-type move to attack Meowstic (female).

Meowstic (male) had a cold and aloof expression, its aloofness comparable to Gu Xuanyue. Its figure quickly dodged the Shadow Ball attack.

Then, it used Psychic to bind Froslass, controlling Froslass's body and slamming it hard onto the ground.

The outwardly aloof Meowstic (male) was quite ruthless in its attacks.

"Magical Leaf."

After slamming Froslass to the ground, it immediately used Magical Leaf to continue attacking Froslass.

"Will it use Protect?"

Jiang Chen watched quietly.

Magical Leaf was a sure-hit move. If Protect wasn't used, it would definitely be hit.

Either use an attack to directly break through the incoming Magical Leaf, but Froslass didn't have time for that now.

"Protect."

Sure enough, Gu Xuanyue still had Froslass use Protect. Although Magical Leaf didn't cause damage to Froslass, it was enough.

By forcing out the opponent's Protect, Jiang Chen gained the advantage.

Gu Xuanyue's eyebrows furrowed, losing her previous coldness. She clearly knew Jiang Chen's purpose was to force her Froslass to use Protect.

This was equivalent to losing an invincible defensive skill.

Protect was a divine skill; as long as the strength gap wasn't too large, Protect could block any attack.

"Froslass, Blizzard."

A cold blizzard swept in, mixed with snowflakes, and the blizzard grew stronger and stronger. Soon, Meowstic (male) was covered in a thick layer of snow.

If it stood still, it would probably be buried quickly.

The biting cold wind and snow made Meowstic (male)'s body shiver, and it even felt a bit stiff.

"Use Psychic to resist, isolate the blizzard."

Meowstic (male)'s mental energy was terrifying, directly sweeping away the blizzard.

"Continue attacking, use Psyshock."

Although Froslass was fast, Psychic-type moves were definitely the most difficult to dodge because a move like Psyshock was released without any noticeable signs.

By the time it was noticed, the attack had already landed.

Psyshock hit Froslass, and Froslass looked a bit pained.

Don't let Meowstic (female)'s Quasi-Elite Four, Rank Eight strength fool you into thinking it was weaker than Froslass; in terms of combat power, Meowstic (female) was actually superior to Froslass.

"Meowstic (female), use Psybeam."

"Dodge to the right."

"You can't dodge it." Jiang Chen said with a light chuckle, hearing Gu Xuanyue command Froslass to dodge.

Indeed, as he said, the opponent couldn't dodge. Psychic restrained Froslass's movements, making it unable to move.

Breaking free from Psychic wasn't impossible, but it required time. At this moment, even a second would lead Froslass to be hit by Psybeam.

Protect had already been used, but at this moment, Gu Xuanyue had no choice but to take a gamble and use Protect again; there were no other options.

"Hmm, it actually succeeded?"

Jiang Chen didn't expect Froslass to successfully use Protect. This could only be attributed to luck; it would absolutely not succeed with bad luck.

"Even though Protect was successful, it doesn't matter. I can still use the same move."

Jiang Chen was not flustered. What if Froslass's Protect was successful? The same trick could be used again.

"This time, directly use Hyper Beam. I don't believe you can successfully use Protect again."

Jiang Chen had Meowstic (female) use Hyper Beam.

When Froslass tried to dodge, it was indeed the same as last time; Meowstic (male) once again used Psychic to influence Froslass's actions.

"Hyper Beam."

There were no other options. Froslass could only clash directly with Jiang Chen's Meowstic (female). As for using Protect again...

Successfully using Protect before was already lucky. The success rate for a third use was pitifully low, and Gu Xuanyue wouldn't gamble on it, because losing the gamble would mean the end.

Although the outcome of this battle was already decided, Gu Xuanyue still wanted to struggle one last time; she wouldn't give up.

Two Hyper Beams collided, and for a moment, it was impossible to tell who would win or lose.

Jiang Chen and Gu Xuanyue's expressions were calm, but Ning Ya next to them was very nervous. She naturally hoped that Meowstic (male)'s Hyper Beam could overpower Froslass's.

This one move would decide the winner. Gu Xuanyue appeared calm on the surface, but in reality, her eyes were constantly focused on the battle between the two Pokémon.

Jiang Chen smiled. Although it was still an even match, Jiang Chen was already confident of victory.

Simply using Hyper Beam, it was really hard to say who would win, as Jiang Chen's Meowstic (male) was only Quasi-Elite Four, Rank Eight.

However, Meowstic (male) also had mental energy. While clashing with Hyper Beam, Meowstic (male) suddenly used Extrasensory.

Gu Xuanyue probably never imagined that Meowstic (female) would still have the spare energy to use other moves while releasing Hyper Beam...

In fact, even if Gu Xuanyue knew, she wouldn't be able to stop it.

Extrasensory was the last straw that broke Froslass, because under the influence of Extrasensory, Froslass showed a pained expression and stopped using Hyper Beam.

Froslass's slight pause instantly broke the evenly matched situation. Hyper Beam, carrying unparalleled power, struck Froslass.

"Froslass is unable to battle. The young master wins this match."

Ning Ya happily announced the result.

Not only did he win, but Jiang Chen won quite easily. Only Blastoise was defeated by Gu Xuanyue.

Gu Xuanyue defeating Blastoise was also due to the huge strength gap between Lapras and Blastoise.

Jiang Chen's easy victory didn't mean Gu Xuanyue was too weak; it should be said that Jiang Chen was too strong.

"Come back, Meowstic (male)."

After recalling Meowstic (male), Gu Xuanyue also returned her injured and fainted Froslass to its Poké Ball.

"You won, I can tell you why I came to challenge you."

"I'm all ears."

Jiang Chen was also very curious. Gu Xuanyue coming to challenge him without any reason was indeed a bit strange; he wasn't that familiar with Gu Xuanyue.

"My grandfather said that if I could defeat you, he would allow me to refuse a blind date with you."

"Pfft?!"

"What did you just say? A blind date with me?"

Jiang Chen had just taken the water Ning Ya handed him and taken a sip. Hearing Gu Xuanyue's words, he couldn't help but spit it out. He wondered if he had misheard.

"Now that I've lost, I'll agree to the blind date with you."

"Wait, actually, you don't have to agree. And how come I didn't know about this?"

At this moment, his mind was a bit blank.

"You wait a moment."

Jiang Chen walked to the side and directly took out his phone, dialing his dad's number. A hunch told him that this matter might be related to his dad.

If it were his mom's doing, Xie Yulan would definitely have told him beforehand.

"Hey, you little brat, I'm busy. What is it?"

"Dad, I have something to ask you. What's this about a blind date with Gu Xuanyue, 2.4? Can you tell me about it?" Jiang Chen asked with annoyance.

"Oh, that matter. I was busy and forgot to tell you. Actually, it was your teacher's suggestion, and Shuangyue is quite pretty, so I agreed on your behalf. How is it, have you met Shuangyue yet?"

"Then it should be fine if I refuse, right?"

How old was he now? Not even sixteen yet, and they were rushing to arrange a blind date for him. Of all people, they had to arrange a big ice mountain.

"Refuse? You brat, don't be ungrateful. Is Gu Xuanyue not pretty enough?"

Jiang Yuan felt that Jiang Chen was truly ungrateful. He had only agreed to his teacher's suggestion because Gu Xuanyue was pretty.

Gu Xuanyue was beautiful and strong, and her future achievements would definitely be outstanding. It would be good if she could become his daughter-in-law.

"I didn't say she wasn't pretty, but her personality is too cold. I don't like it."

In Jiang Chen's opinion, both Ling Wanqiu and Xiao Luoxue were better than this ice-cold woman, Gu Xuanyue.

"Alright then, if you don't like her, I won't force you. I'll talk to your teacher sometime. Don't you dare regret it." Jiang Yuan's tone held a hint of regret; he was quite optimistic about Gu Xuanyue.
