Want to play cards? I'll use my King's Deck!

Izayoi Hoshi's ace is "Stardust Dragon," and perhaps due to some kind of resonance effect, Izayoi Hoshi's deck is largely the same as Fudo Yusei's.

This "Scrap Warrior" is both a symbol of Yusei and one of Izayoi Hoshi's favorite Synchro Monsters.

Upon seeing this card, how could Yu Xi not know who the original owner of this deck was?

"It's alright. I believe that with your help, Youxi, you'll be able to bring out their full power."

Izayoi Yuki said, "The most important thing now is to improve everyone's strength as much as possible, and the one who can do this the fastest is you, Yuki. You are our biggest variable, and helping you is helping ourselves."

"Hum, Xiaoxue is right."

Xing Yewu chimed in with a smile, "Xiao Xi, don't be shy with us, just use it freely! Not everyone gets this kind of opportunity."

Speaking of which, Xiaoxi has already learned Feel and mastered Synchro Summoning. Next, Xyz Summoning and Link Summoning should be on the agenda.

Hmm, I'll see when I get back if there are any Overpower cards suitable for Xiaoxi.

I remember visiting Father Anderson's place...

"In that case... I will take good care of them."

Yuki cut through his hesitation, flipped over Izayoi Hoshi's deck, and placed it next to his own. Then, he discussed deck building and tactical balance with the girls, and in the end, a brand new deck was created by the three of them working together.

"That way, we just need to add this last card."

After her dark duel with Grafa, the Dark Witch habitually took her first Synchro Monster and added it to her Extra Deck, and Yuki put her D-glasses back on.

This time, his purpose for the duel has changed slightly. He wants to use the online duel opportunity to further adjust and get used to the power of the current deck.

"Wu, Xue. I'll be right back."

【Into The Duel-Links!】

As the command was input, Youxi's consciousness sank into the vast virtual world.

Chapter 125 The Blue Princess

The DL world remains as vast and boundless as ever.

This was a sight unlike anything seen in reality; it was magnificent and fantastical. However, Youxi had witnessed it many times before, so she wasn't as surprised as she had been the first time.

His gaze fell directly on the [Ladder Ranking].

After a period of hard work leveling up, Youxi's ranking and points in the [Ranked Matches] have reached a mid-to-high level, which translates to roughly between [Gold] and [Platinum] in League of Legends.

While still quite a distance from the top tier, it's already a place where you can encounter some truly skilled duelists, making it much more stable than the lottery-like "quick matchmaking."

While it's possible to practice with Xingye Wu and the others to familiarize ourselves with the deck, we already know each other well. We still need to play a large number of games against unknown decks to accurately identify the problems.

"Then let's begin now."

You Xi gently tapped the [Ranked Ladder] button.

The [Ranked Match] button shattered and disappeared, and the surrounding environment changed again. Last time it was a dueling arena like ancient Rome, but this time it has become a vast blue sea.

The sea breeze felt wonderfully comfortable, and the expansive view was truly refreshing.

Yuki's appearance is also completely different from when she first logged into the game.

Wearing a black and blue trench coat, with a few strands of hair dyed gold and purple contact lenses, her overall style became much more edgy and outlandish.

It also fits the style of this world better.

Well, in the real world, Yu Xi might be too embarrassed to dress like this. But since it's a virtual world where no one knows her, it's okay to be a little dramatic sometimes, right?

Of course, he would change into normal clothes when he fought the two girls, Xingye Wu and Xingye Wu.

You Xi didn't have to wait long before his opponent appeared on the other side.

Her slender, silver-white body was very curvaceous and exuded a powerful aura. Her azure hair swayed behind her, and her clear blue eyes, the same color as her hair, shone with an arrogant light.

A typical mature and sophisticated woman.

She has a nickname on her head: "Blue-Princess".

Translated, she is "Blue Princess," level 55, only a few levels higher than Yu Xi.

...In this case, a queen would be more suitable than a princess.

As You Xi thought to himself, the blue-haired mature woman opposite him also saw him.

"You're my opponent, huh! You don't look very strong. Well then, I'll take you down in one go and turn you into my experience points."

Blue Princess glanced at Yuki's outfit and lost interest. The ID name "Stranger Yuki," which had previously caught Chunhu's attention, didn't elicit any reaction from her either.

She reached out and ran her hand through her hair, which was so long it covered her hips, and on her arm appeared a light pollution duel disk that clearly showed she had spent a lot of money on high-end skins.

"Come on! Let's not waste any more time, let's begin the duel!"

"Hmm, seems to be an impatient person..."

Seeing the Blue Princess's urging, Yu Xi abandoned the usual pre-battle chat and activated her basic Duel Disk.

"Duel——!" x2

【Yuki the Stranger LP: 8000】

【Blue Princess LP: 8000】

"My first strike!"

Amidst the roar of the raging waves, as soon as the duel declaration was made, the system determined that Youxi's side had gained the first strike.

Yu Xi didn't stand on ceremony and drew 5 cards from her deck as her starting hand.

After scanning the area, he pulled out a card and snapped a picture. With a sound that shook the earth, a colossal temple rose up behind Yu Xi, with crimson jewels floating above it.

This is one of the series of cards that Yuki hasn't used much since she got it.

"—Activate Field Spell: "Serpent's Temple". As part of the effect processing when this card is activated, place 1 "Serpent's Eye" from my Deck as a Continuous Spell Card face-up in my back row. I choose "Serpent's Eye Flame", then Normal Summon "Serpent's Eye White Oak" and activate "White Oak's" effect.

Send "Snake-Eyes Flame Rin" and this card to the Graveyard, Special Summon "Snake-Eyes White Wax Beast" from your Deck. If "White Wax Beast" is successfully Special Summoned, add "Snake-Eyes White Acorn Beast" from your Deck to your hand, and if "Snake-Eyes Flame Rin" is sent to the Graveyard, place "Snake-Eyes White Acorn Beast" as a Continuous Spell Card in your back row. Then, if you control a FIRE monster, Special Summon "Snake-Eyes White Acorn Beast" from your hand. Send "White Wax Beast" and "White Acorn Beast" to the Graveyard, Special Summon "Snake-Eyes Flame Dragon" from your Deck!

"Snake-Eyed Flame Dragon, ATK: 3000"

The combo is similar to the one previously demonstrated by the Dark Witch, with only minor differences in the process.

The enormous fire serpent dragon roared as it descended behind Youxi, its crimson orb on its forehead burning with ferocious azure flames.

"He summoned a dragon-type monster with attack power comparable to Blue-Eyes Monster in the very first turn."

Despite the tedious process, the sheer power of "Snake-Eyed Flame Dragon's" appearance was enough to make the wait worthwhile.

Princess Blue craned her neck, gazing curiously at the "Snake-Eyed Flame Dragon." This was the first time she had ever seen such a monster. She had never even heard of the "Snake-Eyed" series before.

What kind of effect will such a monster have? If it's just all show and no substance, it won't be a match for her.

"The effect of 'Snake-Eyed Flame Dragon' activates! Once per turn, select 1 monster from both players' Graveyards or the field and transform it into a Continuous Spell Card. I select 'Snake-Eyed White Wax Beast,' then activate the Spell Card: 'Original Sin Treasure - Snake-Eyed'!"

Yuki played his third card, and a crimson orb radiated light, condensing into a brand new monster in his field.

"Based on this card's effect, send 'White Wax Beast' from the back row to the Graveyard, and Special Summon the Level 1 FIRE 'Jet Synchron' from your Deck in Defense Position."

"Jet Synchronizer, Rank 1/Fire/Mechanical/Tuner" "ATK: 500/DEF: 0"

A small robot, resembling a turbine engine, floats in mid-air, its humanoid eyes half-open.

Originally, Yuki's deck could only summon "Sinful Treasure - Snake Eyes" monsters, but with the deck gift from Izayoi Yuki, a new option was added.

This also greatly expands the possibilities.

"I used a 1-star 'Jet Synchron' and a 1-star 'Snake-Eyed White Beast' to train its star level."

After closing his eyes and recalling the feelings he had experienced, Youxi opened them and, with his own will, stirred up his own feelings a second time.

The "Jet Synchronizer" immediately transformed into a star ring, passing through the body of the "Snake-Eyed White Beast".

1 stars + 1 stars = 2 stars!

"Let our gathered prayers lead to a horizon of new speed, becoming a path of radiant light! Synchro Summoning, the power of hope! Synchro Coordinator, 'Formula Synchronizer'!!"

"Formula Synchronizer, Rank 2 / Light / Mechanical / Synchronization / Tuner" "ATK: 200 / DEF: 1500"

As if the summoning words were etched into his DNA, Yuki uttered them fluently, and a synchronized light shone forth, revealing a monster resembling a Formula One race car.

Moreover, this is not the OCG version, but a rare "Formula Synchronizer" that Yuki has seen in this world, identical to the original.

"When a monster is sent to the Graveyard as Synchro Material, the effect of 'Jet Synchro' is activated. Add 1 'Scrap' monster from your Deck to your hand. Then activate the effect of 'Formula Synchro' once per turn: Draw 1 card."

Yu Xi reached into the deck and drew two new cards from it.

The card retrieved is the classic "Junk Synchron," which can be used as an engine component for the next turn's development.

And Yu Xi's development in this round is not yet over.

"I'll use a 2-star 'Formula Synchron' to adjust the star level of my 8-star 'Serpent-Eyes Flame Dragon'."

2 stars + 8 stars = 10 stars!

"The time for revolution has come! Raise the banner of freedom and forge a new future! Called by the same voice, advance, 'Baroness of Flowers'!!"

"Ballad of Flowers, Level 10/Wind/Warrior" "ATK: 3000/DEF: 2400"

Rose petals fluttered in the air as a noble and elegant female knight appeared on her steed.

This time, it is no longer a villain who aids and abets evil, but a chaste paladin who fights for its new master.

"The 'Flower Baroness'... Hmm, this monster is a bit troublesome."

The Blue Princess's expression turned somewhat serious.

Compared to the completely unknown "Snake Eyes," "Baroness Flower" is much more famous. A useful and powerful general-purpose white 10 Synchro Monster, she is a popular terminal in professional environments.

The price is very expensive for ordinary people.

Generally, only clubs that invest in professional duelists can afford to buy them. If a professional duelist wants to buy one, unless he is a top-tier player, he would have to work hard for at least five or six years.

Well, with her family background, she could easily have a dozen of them.

"If 'Snake-Eyes Flame Dragon' is sent from my hand or field to the Graveyard, I revive two Level 1 FIRE monsters from my Graveyard to my field. I choose 'Snake-Eyes White Oak' and 'Snake-Eyes Flame Rin'."

Yu Xi's turn continues.
