I'm in Yu-Gi-Oh!, but I'm also in Machine Ascension.

Meanwhile, upon witnessing the appearance of Yuuki's Xyz Cyber ​​Dragon, everyone immediately cast "sympathetic" glances at Yuuki's opponent, Jaden Yuki.

The young duelist with the "jellyfish head" hairstyle, Jaden Yuki, immediately scratched his head, looking utterly helpless.

"Although he's a world-class duelist, the fact that he's pulled out an Xyz card right now makes things really difficult..."

But soon, after looking at the [Cyber ​​Dragon - Nova] on the opponent's field with considerable surprise, the boy's face did not show obvious "fear," but rather an indescribable excitement:

"Excellent! If this is the full strength of Senior Yufeng, then my [HERO] deck will also rise up to respond—"

In that instant, amidst Jaden Yuki's confident expression, a glimmer seemed to flicker in the eyes of the "jellyfish-headed" boy.

...

"Is that so? It's actually fueled your fighting spirit? You really do have a strong personality... Jaden Yuki..."

After a slight sigh, Youfeng immediately smiled and nodded, pointing once again to his card deck:

"However, this [Xyz] is just the beginning of my combo - now, I will directly activate the effect of the [Cyber ​​Dragon - Nova] that was just summoned on the field: Once per turn, you can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card to activate this effect. Special Summon 1 [Cyber ​​Dragon] from your Graveyard."

Soon after, Youfeng immediately took out one of the two 5-star [Sebastorgron] cards stacked under this card, sent it to the graveyard as cost, and then drew it out again:

"I'll Special Summon this [Sebadorgon] directly using a face-up Supply!"

A surge of electricity instantly enveloped the powerful mechanical monster, constructed primarily of bright silver and white, and the classic electronic dragon reappeared:

【Electronic Dragon】

[Race: Mechanical]

[Attribute: light]

[Star rating: 5]

[Attack power: 2100]

[Defense: 1600]

"Does this mean... the XYZ material used to create [Cyber ​​Dragon Nova] has been summoned again?"

This time, even Yugi Muto, who was intently watching the match during the video call, was momentarily taken aback and lost in thought.

...

After summoning the Cyber ​​Dragon in a "make the most of its resources" manner, Yuu immediately reached into his Duel Disk again, taking out his entire Extra Deck. From it, he quickly selected a powerful, shiny black Xyz Monster card that possessed similar power to the Cyber ​​Dragon Nova, but was clearly a level higher:

"So this time, since I have [Cyber ​​Dragon - Nova] on my field, I can directly Xyz Summon it by stacking it on top of [Cyber ​​Dragon - Nova] based on its Special Summoning conditions!"

"So—here we go!"

"Come forth, in your ultimate evolved form, Super Light, Tier 6! [Cyber ​​Dragon - Infinity]!"

Soon, along with Youfeng's voice, a card was immediately played, placed face-down on the Rank 5 Machine-Type monster "Cyber ​​Dragon Nova," which had been summoned for the first time using the "Xyz Summon."

In an instant, a dazzling arc of light shone on the [Cyber ​​Dragon - Nova] in the Wind Play area, and at that moment, the powerful monster composed of three colors immediately underwent an even more powerful evolution.

Finally, after countless upgrades, the ultimate form of Sevalagon, representing infinite evolution, was displayed on the field with a dazzling and stunning display of its outstretched wings:

【Cyber ​​Dragon - Infinite】

[Race: Mechanical]

[Attribute: light]

[Class: 6]

[Attack power: 2100]

[Defense: 1600]

"So... the super-powerful class has risen again? But... this doesn't seem to match the characteristics of the [Electronic School] at all... its attack power hasn't even increased by 1 point..."

And as everyone stared in astonishment at this exceptionally handsome mechanical and electronic dragon with its wings spread wide and its body crackling with crimson electricity.

They were also slightly surprised to see that the [Electronic Dragon] seemed unchanged.

At this moment, Ryo Marufuji quickly shook his head:

"Since it was Mr. Yufeng who specially performed the Xyz Summon, its strength will definitely be improved... Just like the Chimera Berserker in the Cyberse school, although the attack power of a single attack did not increase, it was given a very powerful effect."

...

At the same time, watching the live broadcast of the match, Yugi Muto nodded with anticipation:

"Hmm...that's how it is...and generally, Xyz Monsters often have more powerful effects as their rank increases. This Cyber ​​Dragon - Infinite isn't good at boosting attack power, but that means it must contain some kind of powerful effect..."

Hearing the world's undisputed number one legendary duelist say this, everyone nodded in agreement, and for a moment no one raised any further objections.

On the contrary, You Feng shook his head slightly as he looked at everyone's reactions, and said with great dissatisfaction:

"What? You dare to look down on my invincible [Sebatoragon]?"

"Watch closely, Jaden Yuki, this is the second lesson I'll teach you—any powerful [Cervard Ragon] card has the ability to boost attack power!"

Soon, amidst the exhilarating sounds of the wind, the [Cyber ​​Dragon - Infinite], representing the ultimate evolution of [Cyber ​​Dragon], lit up with streaks of white light across its entire mechanical body.

The two monster cards beneath him, each representing a different form of Cyber ​​Dragon, immediately surged with power and poured into the Cyber ​​Dragon - Infinite that was pressing down on them.

"Oh oh oh~"

In an instant, accompanied by the expectant exclamation of "Yellow-haired boy" Katsuya Jonouchi, everyone's attention was instantly focused on this powerful [Xyz] monster.

Soon after a rapid surge, and just as everyone was wondering how high the card's attack power could rise, the powerful future [Cyber ​​Dragon]'s attack boost abruptly stopped.

【Cyber ​​Dragon - Infinite】

[Attack power: 2100→2500]

Katsuya Jonouchi: "??? Four hundred points?!"

Ryo Marufuji: "Attack power... it's increased, but not completely..."

Asuka Tenjouin, Jaden Yuki: ...

...

Soon, facing a crowd that seemed completely dissatisfied with the result, Youfeng smiled and nodded:

"Hmm, this card has a [Continuous Effect] that increases this card's ATK by 200 times the number of Xyz Materials this card uses, so for now it can only increase ATK by 400 points..."

As Yuuki's explanation began, the "jellyfish-headed" Jaden Yuuki on the opposite side immediately smiled and "reminded" Yuuki:

"Since that's the case... Mr. Yufeng, my [E-HERO Flame Wingman] originally had 2100 ATK, but since the ATK of your monsters on the field has surpassed it, I can immediately activate the Field Spell [Skyscraper]'s effect of temporarily increasing the ATK of [E-HERO] monsters by 1000 during battle..."

Soon, as Jaden Yuki confidently pointed to his picture of Gotham City with a beaming smile, Yuuki's lips twitched.

"Jūdai... if I remember correctly, your thing only activates when you initiate an attack, right? Are you trying to fool me?"

As he gave a slightly disdainful look, You Feng's lips curled into a smile again:

"However, I will not waste a precious attack opportunity. I will find another way to defeat this powerful [Fusion Monster]!"

...

Then, Yufeng immediately pointed his finger at the powerful Tier 6 Xyz Monster [Cyber ​​Dragon Infinite] and activated its effect:

"Next, I will use the effect of [Cyber ​​Dragon - Infinite]: Once per turn, you can target 1 face-up Attack Position monster on the field. Add that monster underneath this card as XYZ Material."

"I'll just give that [E-HERO Flame Wingman] card of yours right here!"

In an instant, accompanied by Youfeng's excited voice, the powerful classic Elemental HERO monster card, which, with the support of field spells, even possessed the explosive power to achieve an OTK, was immediately superimposed onto the card face of Cyber ​​Dragon - Infinite by Youfeng.

...

In an instant, even Jaden Yuki, who had initially been able to temporarily cope with Yuuki's attack, seemed to put on a "mask of pain," letting out an incredulous "howl":

"Aaaaaah~ Where's my [E-HERO Flame Winged Man]?! Damn it, the giants are using Minotaur tactics..."

Meanwhile, on the other end of the video link, Katsuya Jonouchi, watching this "classic" situation unfolding on the field, immediately curled up a mysterious smile:

"Hmm... In a sense, just like how he's been ripping off my [Red-Eyes Black Dragon], Yufeng really enjoys ripping off other people's cards!"

"Outrageous, absolutely outrageous!"

"I feel morally remorseful!"

66. Dimensional Reduction Strike: The Power of CNo.101 Meteorite Electronic Dragon!

At that very moment, accompanied by Youfeng's familiar "I'm awesome, take your ace monster" move.

As he somewhat "brain-hemorrhaging" recalled the "dark scene" of his battle with Yuuki during the Duel City tournament, Katsuya Jonouchi on the other side of the screen also excitedly made a comment, causing the camera to shake up and down for a moment.

Everyone felt a surge of "high blood pressure" for Jaden Yuki:

"Hiss... It even has this effect... It can indiscriminately take away the opponent's monster cards..."

"It's still once per turn, which means that as long as we can't get rid of this [Cyber ​​Dragon - Infinite] card, no matter how hard we try, we'll keep getting crushed..."

Soon after seeing the "yellow-haired" guy's grimacing expression on the big screen, Asuka Tenjouin, who was on the second floor of the spectator stands, tensed up slightly and gripped the railing tightly, shaking her head with a sigh.

"...If even the legendary duelist Joey Wheeler was defeated by the Minotaur... then in a sense, Mr. Yuuka could be called a grandmaster of the Minotaur, right?!"

[Cyber ​​Dragon]: This is what happens when you dare to attack the watch face in front of the Cyber ​​Dragon!

...

At this moment, amidst sighs and lamentations from the crowd...

Facing his own ace monster, which was also the only [Fusion] monster card on the field at that moment, it was directly used as material by the opponent's Wind Bull.

Jaden Yuki's expression immediately tightened, and his face instantly turned serious. He quickly reached for the card that he had set face-down in the back row the previous turn. However, after a brief moment of hesitation, Jaden Yuki finally lowered his finger and did not choose to activate the effect from the back row at this moment.

Then, as if waiting for something, Jaden Yuki, who had [E-HERO Sky Warrior] as his only protection on the field at this moment, immediately assumed a posture ready to counterattack at any moment.

This imposing presence instantly aroused the crowd's intense interest in "Jellyfish Head" Jaden Yuki, who was making her debut as an examinee:

"Hmm... Judai Yuki, this guy doesn't seem as bad as his written test scores suggest..."

"To be able to remain so calm in front of Senior Yufeng, and even when facing an Xyz Cyber ​​Dragon... such a dashing demeanor is truly admirable!"

Soon, accompanied by Asuka Tenjōin's soft exclamation of admiration, Ryō Marufuji, standing beside her, also looked with considerable interest towards Judai Yuki's backstage area:

"However, it seems he still has a way to retaliate at this moment, which I'm quite curious about..."
