My anime-style card deck is fine!

This allowed the masked examiners to concentrate their mental energy like never before.

In certain crucial matches, some card players will occasionally enter a similar state, in which they can more accurately capture the cards they need from their deck.

That is, a divine draw!

But the masked examiner had no time to rejoice. If he wanted to win, he had to focus all his attention on the next card draw!

Only that card, absolutely that card!

——Found it!

He swiftly and accurately grasped the card he wanted, and beneath the mask, the examiner's expression grew even more excited.

"I can feel it! The winds of victory are blowing from behind me!" The examiner gripped his deck with one hand, his voice excited and high-spirited, especially since he had copied this line, which he always found cool, from Amon on the other side.

This made him even more excited!

"This is my victory, my gacha pull, my—"

Snapped!

—A surprise high-five!

The masked examiner's action of drawing a card was abruptly interrupted, as was the smile on his face.

The masked examiner staggered back two steps and fell silent.

There was nothing more to say. The familiar, intense confrontation, and the card that had been knocked out of the hand in front of him, made the masked examiner tremble slightly.

The masked examiner slowly raised his head and saw the Fiery Roaring Tiger grinning at him with a mouth full of sharp teeth. He immediately closed his eyes in pain.

At that moment, Amon's voice slowly drifted over.

"Priority Skill 2! If this effect has only been used once by Incineroar, I can activate the Pokémon Move Fake Out equipped by Incineroar from my hand—consuming one Normal Summon, this card can be activated directly from my hand."

The remaining effects are omitted.

“Although I don’t know what you’re planning to do, the Blazing Roaring Tiger said—God will not allow it!” Amon’s face was somewhat lazy, and his voice was slow and leisurely.

But his tone was equally loud: "In the name of the Blazing Roaring Tiger, I now order you to step down!"

The masked examiner opened his mouth.

He couldn't say a word. Looking at Amon across from him, he finally understood why those people had secretly contacted him and asked him to steal a card from Amon, a mere examinee.

There's no other reason; this deck is just ridiculously strong!

From beginning to end, this duel was a one-man show by him, while Amon just stood there quietly, but every move he made forced him to do his best to deal with it!

This bronze bell isn't even from Amon's main Flame Roaring Tiger, but from a mere level 33 bronze minion!

"I lost."

Chapter 110: Male Card Master Charges Forward (not really)!

competition is over.

Amon didn't say much, turned around and left.

Although he sensed that something was off with the masked examiner, Amon didn't intend to do anything about it.

Amon's past life's work experience made him clear about this.

— Doing nothing is better than doing nothing.

He doesn't underestimate anyone. Even he could easily sense that the masked examiner was acting strangely, so it's impossible that the entire college entrance examination team, who were invigilating the entire examination hall, was unaware of it.

Anyway, we can ask someone how to handle it after the exam.

In fact, just as Amon thought.

No sooner had Amon left the 70th level than a group of security personnel preparing for the college entrance examination escorted their boss in.

"You've been caught red-handed, come with us."

……

Meanwhile, Amon entered the seventy-first level, but to his surprise, he didn't see any guards in this level—instead, he found a water park!

The various large mechanical devices and constantly rotating mechanisms gave Amon a strong sense of déjà vu...

Boys and girls, charge forward!

What does this have to do with card making?

"Bang!" A large amount of water shot into the sky, and a blue water elemental dragon-shaped monster broke out of the water and coiled on the highest castle in the water park.

Meanwhile, the originally crystal-clear water began to boil.

One by one, shrimp soldiers and crab generals, also composed of water elements, appeared on the water's surface, screaming and cheering.

At first glance, there were hundreds of them!

"?!"

Amon's eye twitched. This was even worse than boys and girls rushing forward!

Fortunately, the answering assistant provided a hint, which finally put Amon at ease. After carefully reviewing the instructions, he immediately understood the rules of this level.

—Element restrictions!

In this level, Amon can only use cards with the water attribute; all other cards cannot be activated.

If Amon feels he is not suited for this level, he can spend a half-finished card to enter other levels on the same floor through the door behind him.

However, the restrictions in the adjacent levels are similar.

It's just things like fire, steel, and fighting attributes.

Candidates must overcome the obstacles posed by hundreds of minions to reach the final castle, defeat the silver-level water elemental dragon, and find the door to the next level inside the castle guarded by this dragon!

In addition, the mechanisms leading to the castle also have various debuff effects.

These effects can stack!

It can be said that there are various disadvantages, and the college entrance examination team has also considered similar situations. Therefore, there will be no punishment for failing this stage of the test, and candidates can withdraw at any time.

However, if you fail, the minions you defeated will revive, and you'll have to fight them all over again.

"The only good news is, are we going to get three extra blank cards?"

Looking at the three blank cards that the answer assistant spat out, Amon immediately understood—it was another set topic for the college entrance examination essay!

However, compared to the previous broad range, the question types this time are much narrower.

Amon could tell that he entered the water elemental level because of the Blazing Roaring Tiger.

Although Incineroar is a Fire/Dark type.

However, its dominant attribute is [Fire].

That's why Amon was assigned to the water element level—those unscrupulous college entrance exam organizers aimed to force test takers to explore more possibilities!

If you really can't complete it, you can always change the level, right?

Although it wasted a lot of time and energy.

But who told you you couldn't do it?

[Candidates may refuse this assistance. If a candidate refuses, the number of blank cards awarded as a reward will increase to seven, which will then be available as a treasure chest in front of the entrance gate of this level.]

"You can do that?" Amon raised an eyebrow. "That's really good news!"

Unlike the psychological trap you fall into when you first enter the game, which is gambling, this time it's different—all the rules are written out in the open, and the winner will take everything!

A blank aid card? Not needed!

Amon has absolute trust and confidence in his Pokémon deck!

If it were a normal card player, trying to pass the seventy trials, the racial difficulties and the various effects of the minions and monsters encountered along the way would naturally have already used up all three of their initial blank cards.

These three cards are undoubtedly the key enhancements you can obtain to clear this level!

But Amon is different. Amon still has two blank cards that he hasn't used yet, relying solely on the strength of the Pokémon deck, or rather, on the domineering combination of Incineroar and Fake Out!

They have swept through the competition and are now unrivaled!

Even after reading the rules, when Amon looked at the pool of water elements, his first thought was to make the Blazing Roaring Tiger jump out and slap them!

Unfortunately, I can't give it to them.

With regret and unease, Amon removed all the non-Water-type Pokémon from his hand, including Incineroar, Boar, Broncos, and Jumpluff, and then sifted through his deck.

He then took out some Water-type Pokémon, as well as Ritual Cards and Spell Cards from the cartridges he carried with him and added them to the deck.

"Ready!"

Amon stood up and stepped onto the unstable-looking floating plank without hesitation.

The moment Amon stepped onto the floating platform, the water elemental shrimp soldiers and crab generals opposite him immediately erupted into a frenzy, emitting dense bubbling sounds and roars that were inaudible to ordinary people.

It was silent and still, yet its momentum was overwhelming.

Like foam before a towering wave, these water elemental monsters swarmed towards Amon!

"...Another show of force? How boring."

This display of power surprised Amon, but he was mostly speechless—this small scene was nothing compared to the grand spectacle he had created in the Sky Battlefield in the previous one.

Moreover, Amon knew that it was impossible for these followers to attack together.

With so many people at this level rushing in, absolutely no one in this examination room could pass this test.

But clearly, several people have already completed the game!

Just as the shrimp soldiers and crab generals were about to touch Amon.

"Boom--!"

A pale blue laser streaked across the water, instantly obliterating everything in its path and creating a deep gap between the surging shrimp soldiers and crab generals and Amon.

The attack was launched by a water elemental dragon that was perched on the castle!

"【Quiet!】"

The water elemental dragon didn't open its mouth, but its steady voice echoed all around: "[Challenger, tell me your name!]"
