Chapter 516 The First Battle of the Semifinals – Cheng Tian VS Hai Ma
The sun and moon revolve, and day and night alternate.

Last night was a sleepless night for everyone in Tokyo, with strong winds and earthquakes. Even for the islanders who are used to dozens or even hundreds of earthquakes a year, it was too much of a shock.

But the allure of the King of Fighters tournament still kept these sleep-deprived spectators up early in the morning, and they queued for several hours before finally returning to their familiar seats.

Although most of the players were also busy all night, they had a lot more time to catch up on sleep because they didn't have to go into the venue immediately.

The big screen in the main stadium had already announced the group stage draw.

[Match 1 of the Semifinals – O'Leary vs. Resilient! Invincible! Strongest! Team]

[Match 2 of the Semifinals - Neon Team vs. Rage Team]

Based on past popularity, Japan's team, to which Kyo Kusanagi belongs, should be the most popular.

However, after several days of fierce battles, Cheng Tian, ​​who had simultaneously earned the glorious titles of "enemy of goddesses," "box-opening expert," and "scumbag lolicon," became the focus of attention for the audience. Not only did people want to see what strange things Cheng Tian could come up with, but many also hoped that he would lose the competition.

In particular, his opponent in this semi-final was a one-man team, Hai Ma Lai Ren, who created the most explosive audio-visual scene in the entire competition so far. Many bookmakers, both open and underground, had already started betting on him yesterday.

Judging from the data alone, many people are more inclined to believe that President Kaiba will win. The destructive power brought by the Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon and Obelisk's Tormentor, which surpasses what a fighter should have, is truly despair-inducing.

However, a considerable number of people believe that Cheng Tian, ​​who is not overwhelmingly powerful but always manages to win and advance, must have something unexpected up his sleeve that he hasn't revealed yet.

Unfortunately, they didn't know that Cheng Tian's professional system had been banned by the challenge rules, and he had fewer and fewer things to offer. To defeat the club president who possessed two exceptional summons, he would really need some skill and even luck.

In short, Kyo Kusanagi's limelight has been stolen by a large part... However, Kyo Kusanagi's current condition is actually not very good either.

Xue didn't die, but she's in the ICU.

Although Chizuru Kagura generously covered all of Yuki's subsequent treatment costs, her state of simply trying to survive inevitably affected Kyo Kusanagi.

clap clap!

Kyo Kusanagi, his face flushed red from slapping, refocused his attention on the arena.

Cheng Tian and his group, along with Hai Ma and his group, have already taken the stage.

The reason for using a single line to refer to Kaiba is mainly because the girlish Blue-Eyes White Dragon always follows behind him.

The president may say no, but his actions speak louder than words.

"Old man, you can't use lack of sleep as an excuse if you lose to me this time!"

"This way, there's no need to worry about underage children who aren't even allowed to buy alcohol."

Hai Ma and Cheng Tian exchanged a few words, their eyes meeting in a fierce exchange.

"Sorry to keep you waiting! The first match of this semi-final is between Team O'Leary and the invincible strongest team! There are no changes to the order of appearance for either team!"

The man with sunglasses and a mustache, who had jumped off the ring in a hurry, announced loudly.

Meanwhile, Cheng Tian and Hai Ma, who remained on the ring, also began to move.

"world!"

As Cheng Tian, ​​arms crossed, spoke, an orange-gold figure appeared beside him. "Come on! Blue-Eyes White Dragon! Show your true form!"

Amidst the seahorse's still passionate roar, the blue-eyed girl's long hair flew wildly, and the fluctuations on her soul side showed very obvious ups and downs. Then, the original form of the 8-star light attribute dragon race turned from illusory to real and covered the blue-eyed girl's body, opening her mouth wide and roaring at Cheng Tian and the world.

The girl's posture, influenced by the midnight blessing, remained unchanged. The dragon-like appearance before her seemed to be projected from a specially made AR duel disk by Kaiba Entertainment, which enhanced her soul power.

It's fair to say that Haima has really gone astray in its technological development.

"So, Orange vs. Kaiba!"

"Ready~GO!"

In fact, when facing an opponent like Kaiba who has powerful summons, Cheng Tian's best option would be to activate Time Stop right at the start, letting Kaiba, who is human, experience the shamelessness of a Time Stopper.

Without a doubt, the seahorse would have no chance of resisting.

But since he was already there, Cheng Tian still wanted to experience the strength of the White Dragon and even the Giant God Weapon.

Moreover... he may not be entirely without the ability to fight.

The Blue-Eyes White Dragon, with its mouth wide open, spewed a small Gale Bullet at Cheng Tian to restrain him. Meanwhile, Kaiba took the opportunity to draw cards, and unsurprisingly, without shuffling, he drew Death Virus and Dark Curse.

While the president's summons are overpowered, he is naturally limited by the template. Only these two trap cards can be used directly as spell cards, and there is no strict limit on the number of them. Apart from these, there are fusion cards, Blue-Eyes White Dragon, and Tormentor.

If the club president can freely use other cards, then Cheng Tian is having a really tough time.

Now that Cheng Tian no longer has the Heart Priest profession, he can no longer use the Heart Barrier for protection.

Fortunately, the incomplete bloodline changes enhanced his weakest areas, strength and agility, especially agility, which received a permanent bonus of 10 points, giving Cheng Tian a small but significant improvement.

When facing other opponents, 24 points of agility is certainly not enough, but now he is facing a seahorse that is not physically strong and mainly relies on summoned beasts, so 24 points of agility is quite sufficient.

As Cheng Tian dodged, his body overlapped with the world that was retreating—

A demonic concerto! Master and servant fusion!

At this moment, Cheng Tian once again adopted that rather fantastical and profound demeanor.

But Cheng Tian's monkey show was clearly not over yet. A flash appeared between his brows, and the light that signaled the activation of the Hundred Demon Night Parade shone. However, this time Cheng Tian's target was not the Blue-Eyed White Dragon, but himself!
While temporarily integrated with the world, you possess both servant attributes and your own!

Therefore, the Hundred Demons Night Parade was activated immediately, and Cheng Tian was instantly enveloped by a peculiar energy.

Seeing this, Seto Kaiba immediately unleashed Dark Curse.

To be honest, he also wanted to see what new tricks Cheng Tian could come up with, but Cheng Tian's danger and uncertainty forced him to interrupt.

Just as the dark magic circle formed above and below Cheng Tian's head, creating binding chains, the seahorse's vision was enveloped in a silvery light. Then, with incredible speed, Cheng Tian instantly broke free from the magic circle's cover and appeared before the seahorse, flashing him a healthy smile.

Mercury time!
