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

As for the extensive summoning practice that followed, that's even easier to understand.

No wonder Wu always complained about how difficult and demanding the training was, but never questioned the meaning and purpose of the training.

Of course, these are just basic physical training exercises, things any physical education teacher could do. Logan's true value lies in other areas.

For example, by combining a large number of real-world cases, the book provides an in-depth analysis of why each duel was the way it was.

Although he seemed somewhat nonchalant on the surface, he could always pinpoint the problems of Yu Xi and others with just a few words and correct them. He also taught them many tips, such as judging the opponent's emotions and true intentions through micro-expressions.

But as strict as he may be, it must be said that Logan, as the ace of the policing department, is indeed quite brilliant.

In just a few days, Yuki felt that she had benefited greatly. Even Izayoi Yuki, who had already received relevant training, felt that she had learned something new.

Despite the arduous and intense training, You Xi and the others did have opportunities to relax.

For example, around the time Yuki and Izayoi Yuki were discharged from the hospital, under Hoshino Mai's direction, Kujo Tsukasa and others from the Angel Church prepared a grand celebration for them. Also, on his birthday, Hoshino Mai threw him a small birthday celebration.

and……

"Here you go, Xiaoxi. This is a birthday present."

When Youxi blew out the candles on the cake and the lights came back on, Xingyewu took out the birthday gift she had prepared beforehand.

The gift wasn't very big, just the size of a card box. And inside, there were indeed several cards.

However, these cards have a black background, which is quite different from ordinary cards.

"Wu, this is..."

"A birthday present!"

Xing Yewu smiled and said, "Didn't Xiaoxue give your Uncle Xing's deck a while ago? It only had Synchro cards. I felt it was a bit lacking, so I asked the priest for a few more cards. These cards should all be able to synergize with your deck, Xiaoxi."

"But this is far too expensive."

"Consider it a return gift from yesterday. Xiaoxi, didn't you also give me a birthday present? So it's the same to you. If you don't accept it, then I'll just have to return your gift to you."

Having heard Xingyewu's words, Youxi had no choice but to accept them. And naturally, there was also the birthday present from Shizayoi Yuki.

In addition, Logan occasionally needs to go out on police missions, at which time Yu Xi and the others are essentially on vacation. However, they do not slack off in their training because of this.

then……

Day after day, the day finally arrived to verify the results.

"Alright, that's all I can teach you."

After checking off the last item on the training sheet, Logan gave a somewhat satisfied smile to the three panting students in front of him.

Not many people could endure his training, but none of them complained or groaned; instead, they all gritted their teeth and persevered. That sheer willpower alone was enough for Logan to hold them all in high regard.

"The rest you will have to learn and apply through your own battles. So, you only have one test left. If you defeat me in a duel, you will officially graduate from my tutelage."

Logan, hands on his hips, added, "Of course, considering the difference in our strength, this won't be a one-on-one duel. I allow you to team up and challenge me."

"Huh? Does that mean Uncle Logan is planning to take on three people at once?" Xing Yewu asked in surprise, "That brave?"

"No, no, I never said I wanted to play one against three."

Logan quickly corrected himself: "I mean, you can choose two people to team up and duel me. If you win, you pass the duel."

One against two is manageable, but one against three is something he's not so suicidal about.

"What about the remaining person?"

You Xi asked curiously, "If it's two against one, won't there be one person left to come?"

"That counts as passing. I have a basic understanding of your abilities. If two people can pass as a team, the other one shouldn't be too far behind."

"So one match is enough?" Izayoi Yuki understood Logan's meaning. "Then let Yuki choose the teammates."

"me?"

"Ah."

Izayoi Yuki nodded and said, "Yuki has just mastered Synchro Summoning and Xyz Summoning, so you are the most suitable candidate to be the test subject for this training. As for the teammates... of course, Yuki should decide that as well."

"Xiaoxue is right, so choose me, Xiaoxi!"

Xingyewu pointed to herself and excitedly volunteered, "We've played doubles in DL before, so we'll definitely be able to coordinate very well."

"That's what I said..."

Yu Xi instinctively looked at the white-haired girl: "Xue, what about you?"

"I have no opinion."

Izayoi Yuki calmly replied, "Mai's strength is no weaker than mine. If you and Yuki had prior experience teaming up, you would probably perform even better than me. Of course, if Yuki chooses me, I will fully cooperate with you."

"Hey kid, stop being so wishy-washy."

Logan urged, "If you're a man, make a decision quickly. Who are you going to choose as your teammate?"

"Um……"

Under the watchful eyes of the three, You Xi didn't hesitate for long. After thinking for two or three seconds, he made his decision.

"Then I'll leave it to you, Mai!"

"Okay, leave it to me! I promise you won't be disappointed!"

Xingye Wu, who had gotten her wish, patted her arm and said with a beaming smile.

Chapter 133 Two against one, Stormy Black Feather launches a surprise attack!

With their teammates confirmed, the group didn't intend to waste any precious time and began their "final exam" in the empty dueling arena outside the dueling club.

"Duel!"

【Yu Xi LP: 8000】

【Star Leaf Dance LP: 8000】

Logan LP: 8000

"The duel order is me → Yuki → me → Hoshino → me. You two share the same graveyard and banished zone, but not the field zone or LP. No objections?"

Logan placed his deck into his duel disk, which was filled with his distinctive personal style, resembling a bird spreading its wings, and looked up to ask the boys and girls opposite him.

Seeing that the two shook their heads, he drew his starting hand and casually slapped down a card.

"My turn, Main Phase 1, I activate the Spell Card: 'Time-Tearing Demon Eye'!"

In Logan's backcourt area, a bright green card appeared, depicting two hands embracing a purple crystal.

That was a magic stone powerful enough to alter time and space, and even the rules of duels.

"At the cost of not being able to activate the effects of monsters in my hand for the next turn, I can draw 2 normal cards throughout the duel and can perform 2 normal summons per turn."

Yu Xi's eyes narrowed: "So you actually drew this magic card right at the start?"

In a one-on-two situation, the biggest disadvantage for the side with fewer people is that they are at a significant disadvantage in terms of card resources.

The "Time-Tearing Demon Eye" can turn time into an advantage, thus compensating for this problem to the greatest extent.

Yuki is also familiar with the deck Logan uses. The "Blackwing" archetype deck doesn't have many worthwhile hand traps, so the side effects are minimal. In fact, the increased Normal Summoning ability is quite useful.

"Then activate the Continuous Spell: 'Black Whirlwind'!"

Sure enough, Logan immediately placed cards in the back row that could maximize the conversion of Normal Summon resources.

"As long as this card is on the field, when a 'Blackwing' monster is successfully Summoned, add 1 'Blackwing' monster from your Deck with a lower ATK than that monster to your hand, activating a total of 2 effects. This way, you can search for 2 'Blackwing' monsters each time. Attack Position Summon: 'Blackwing - Wave Blade Bird of the Night'!"

"Blackfeather - Wave Blade Bird of the Night, Level 4/Dark/Bird/Beast" "ATK: 1900/DEF: 300"

The card was snapped shut, black feathers drifted down, and a monster wearing a bird-head mask spread its wings and landed in front of Logan.

"The 'Waveblade Bird of the Night' has 1900 ATK. Add 'Blackwing - Azure Flame Asura' and 'Blackwing - Northern Bryzad' to your hand. Summon the former. 'Azure Flame Asura' has 1800 ATK. Search for 'Blackwing - Lower Moon Light Bow Bird' and 'Blackwing - Gale of the Gale.'"

Logan retrieved four "Blackwing" monsters from his deck in a row. Despite having used up a lot of cards at the start of the game, Logan's hand didn't seem to have decreased at all.

Under certain conditions, the "Blackwing" deck's ability to generate card advantage is evident.

Anyone familiar with Blackfeather's nature knows that Logan's expansion is clearly just the beginning.

"First, activate the Spell Card: 'Winged Repayment'. If you control 2 Winged Beast Monsters, pay 600 LP to draw 2. Next, use the effect of 'Blackwing - Gale of the Gale'. If you control a 'Blackwing' Monster, Special Summon it from your hand."

"Blackfeather - Gale of the Gale, Level 3/Dark/Bird/Tuner" "ATK: 1300/DEF: 400"

A black whirlwind rose, and a blue raven with green head feathers swooped down.

"Gale the Gale" special summon effect does not form a chain and does not need to be activated. Therefore, it is not restricted by "Tearing Time with a Demonic Eye", and many lower-level "Black Feather" characters have similar effects.

"Using the 3-star 'Gale of the Gale' to adjust the star level of the 4-star 'Azure Flame Asura,' let the black whirlwind become wings soaring through the sky! Synchro Summon 'Blackwing - Armored Raven'!"

"Blackwing - Armored Raven, Level 7/Dark/Bird/Synchro" "ATK: 2500/DEF: 1500"

Synchro light scattered, and a Synchro Monster with red patterns engraved on its black armor descended into the duel arena.

This was Logan's first Synchro Summon.

What followed was a relentless storm of conformity.

"When there is a monster with 2000 or more ATK on the field, Special Summon 'Blackwing - Lower Moon Light Bowbird', then use the Level 2 Tuner 'Lower Moon Light Bowbird' to Level-Tune the Level 4 'Night's Wave Blade Bird', and Synchro Summon 'Blackwing - Star Shadow Bitter Bird'!"

"Blackwing - Star Shadow Bittersword Bird, Level 6/Dark/Bird/Synchro" "ATK: 2400/DEF: 1600"

The second entity, the "Black Feather" monster, appeared. The jet-black bird warrior raised its sword and unleashed a sword aura, striking Yuki.

"If the effect of 'Starry Night Bitterbird' is activated and it is successfully Special Summoned, inflict 800 damage to the opponent."

[Yu Xi's LP: 8000 → 7200]

"Then, as long as 'Starry Night Bittersword Bird' is on the field, once (excluding Normal Summon), I can Summon 1 'Blackwing' monster during the Main Phase. Summon 'Brizzad of the Far North'. When this card is successfully Summoned, Revive 1 Level 4 or lower 'Blackwing' monster from your Graveyard. It also gains 1200 ATK and the effect of two 'Black Whirlwind' cards. Add 'Blackwing - Tornado Reversal' and 'Blackwing - Vata the Scoundrel' from your Deck to your hand."

Once again, the power of the Continuous Magic was triggered, and Logan sifted out a total of 8 cards from his deck in one go, visibly reducing the deck size.

He also began his third and fourth Synchro Summoning.
