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

—Destruction by "Heavenly Emperor's Rider" and "Polar Penguin".

[Yu Xi & Wendy LP: 8000 → 3600]

"Place two Spell/Trap cards face down, end your turn."

"My task is complete. Now it's your turn, You Xi."

Wendy, whose frontcourt had been completely cleared, took a lollipop out of her bag, bit into it, and said to Youxi.

"Yes, thank you for your hard work, Miss Wendy. Leave the rest to me."

You Xi clearly saw the exchange in the previous round.

Although it seemed to end abruptly in the end, that was only because Azure was forced to act that way by Wendy. If it weren't for the initial surprise attack by "Thunder Emperor," the outcome would have been uncertain.

But now...

"I will try to end the duel in this round."

"End the duel this round?"

Upon hearing You Xi's boastful words, Shenwei couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.

"Hey, do you know what you're saying, kid? You should know what kind of opponent you're facing, right? Not some nobody you can just pick off on the street."

"That's true. If it were just me fighting you all alone, it would probably take quite a while to defeat you."

You Xi nodded, fully acknowledging Shenwei's words, before changing the subject.

"However, I have a very good teammate. She's already helped me wear you down quite well, so it's fine. My turn—"

"Draw a card!"

Chapter 187: First "No." Show

"Interesting, it's been a long time since anyone dared to talk to me like that."

Yu Xi's harsh words elicited various reactions.

Shenwei was even more disdainful, while Canglan, though also unimpressed, became somewhat interested.

He was quite curious about this boy who could hang out with Xingfeng and his school team.

If it weren't for the fact that we couldn't actively contact the outside world while in this arena, Canglan would quite like to have her logistics and intelligence team check Qingcheng's information. But it's not too late; we can do it once we get out.

"Now let me see if you can do it, Kiyosumi's junior."

"My turn, draw a card!"

Drawing his cards, the turn changed, Yu Xi glanced at his hand, and then said to Wendy, "Miss Wendy, I need to borrow your power."

"can."

Wendy said nonchalantly, "Use it however you like."

"First, activate the effect of the 'Mesozoic Fossil Motor Vehicle Skull Van' in the cemetery."

With permission granted, Yuki immediately said, "Ban this card, target 1 Spell/Trap Card on the field, and destroy that card."

Yu Xi retrieved the card that Wendy had dumped into the graveyard with "Thunder Emperor" in the previous turn, and a phantom of a war chariot with a fossilized bone shell appeared out of thin air, roaring as it crushed towards Azure's back row.

The latter flipped open the face-down card and said, "Activate this targeted Trap Card: White Roar."

【White Roar (Normal Trap): If you control a WATER monster, you can target 1 Spell Card in your opponent's Graveyard. Banish that card, and negate the effects of Spell Cards your opponent controls this turn.】

"Based on this card's effect, banish the Spell Card 'Advanced Draw' from your Graveyard. This turn, the effects of Spell Cards on your field will be negated. Under these circumstances, do you still have the confidence to defeat us in one turn?"

The importance of spell cards in the deck's progression is undeniable; with a few exceptions, there are virtually no decks that can function without the assistance of spell cards.

This single card can significantly reduce Yuki's operational range.

“Then before that, let’s chain together a quick-attack spell: Whirlwind!” Seeing this, Yuki played a new card without hesitation, “Target your other face-down card, senior, and destroy it.”

"It's no use, my other face-down card is also a Free Chain card—Trap Card activated: 'Blessing of the Sea Dragon God'!"

【Sea Dragon's Blessing (Normal Trap): Until the End Phase of this turn, all Level 3 or lower WATER monsters you control cannot be destroyed by battle or card effects.】

"I have a level 2 'Sea Emperor's Heavy Infantry' on my field, which is suitable for this effect."

"I see,"

Tornado waves surged up from the earth, enveloping "Sea Emperor's Heavy Infantry" and forming an impenetrable shield on the field.

Kamui suddenly realized, "So that's why you kept 'Heavy Infantry'!"

"exactly."

Canglan said casually, "Now that the effects of spell cards are negated, and 'White Whale' also has an unlimited effect of [if it is destroyed by the opponent and sent to the Graveyard, banish 1 WATER monster from the Graveyard as a Tuner Special Summon], it's like I have two tanks on my field that have gained immortality."

"How would you handle this situation, Kiyosumi's junior?"

"Do it this way."

Yuki held up one of her cards, flipped it over, and announced, "The effect of 'Starlight Kuriboh' is activated!"

[You can reveal 1 "Number" Xyz Monster from your Extra Deck to your opponent to activate this effect. Special Summon this card from your hand. This card's Level becomes the same as the revealed monster's Rank. As long as this card, Special Summoned by this effect, is face-up in the Monster Zone, you can only Special Summon "Number" Xyz Monsters from your Extra Deck.]

"Reveal 'Number 11 Giant Eye'. This card is Special Summoned from your hand and its Level is increased to 7."

"Krikrik!"

The moment the card was photographed, the adorable creature let out a cheerful cry.

Like a twin brother of "Rainbow Kuriboh," Kuriboh materialized and appeared, its entire body shimmering with starlight like transparent crystal.

Kuriboh, Level 1→7/Light/Demon, ATK: 100/DEF: 100

"Then, in Attack Position, you can compromise and summon 'Gia the Raging Dark Knight'. This card can be summoned directly without Tributing, and its original ATK becomes 1900."

Yu Xi waved his arm, and the moment the Gaia Knight appeared, a magnificent nebula vortex unfolded in front of him.

"Construct a network of light with two Rank 7 monsters on the field, captivating and enchanting, reflecting the myriad wonders of the universe in their eyes! Xyz Summon! Rank 7, 'No. 11 Giant Eye'!!"

The crimson numbers glowed faintly, and a giant eye opened on the inverted cone. Surrounded by a golden halo, Yuki's "No." card descended onto the battlefield for the first time.

"It's 'No.'!?"

Both Canglan and Shenwei looked surprised, completely unprepared to see Leia, who was at the "No" level, here.

As expected of a duelist who can hang out with Xingfeng, he really can surprise people.

"Once per turn, activate the effect of 'Number 11 Giant Eye'!"

Yu Xilang declared, "Remove 1 Xyz Material and gain control of 1 monster on your opponent's field. What I'm going to seize is 'White Aura Whale,' and [Infinite Tsukuyomi]!"

The white whale, its eyes radiating a scarlet light, froze instantly when its gaze met the white aura's. Its body flew uncontrollably to the top of Youxi's head.

"First of all, it's the first one."

Yu Xidao said, "I then activated the effect of 'Ace Knight' from my hand, sending 'Guardian Knight' from my deck to the Graveyard. This card is Special Summoned from my hand, and its name is treated as 'Guardian Knight' this turn. Then, I banished 'Emperor's Whirlwind' from my Graveyard, and Special Summoned 'Emperor of True Origin' in Defense Position."

A round shield adorned with the four suits of playing cards stood before him, and a knight wearing a red and black clown hat appeared leisurely from the car.

Then, within the pure white light screen, the emperor, whose true form had been hidden, appeared.

A dazzling supercharge vortex unfolded once again before Yuki.

"A network of light is constructed using two Rank 5 monsters, and the brilliance of stars shakes the earth. Xyz Summon! Rank 5, 'Star Saint Pleiades'!"

"Star Saint Pleiades, Rank 5/Light/Warrior" "ATK: 2500/DEF: 1500"

"2 Level 5 Light Monsters"

Golden light surged into the vortex, bringing with it shimmering stardust.

Golden patterns adorn the silver-white holy armor, and the noble warrior stands proudly in the center of the battlefield.

This is an Xyz card that Xingye Wu obtained for Yu Xi from Father Anderson. Nicknamed "Commander," it was originally a secret weapon prepared for the self-restriction turn after "Ace Straight" was activated. Using it now is quite timely.

"The Pleiades..."

Unlike the "Giant Eye," the leader summoned by Yu Xi wasn't that rare. As soon as the leader appeared, Cang Lan immediately understood what was going to happen next.

"The Sea Emperor's Heavy Infantry" cannot be saved.

"This formation has indeed been completely breached."

Kamui's expression turned somewhat serious.

He could no longer dismiss You Xi's words as a joke.

"However, the turn 'Giant Eye' uses its effect cannot attack. Even if 'White Aura Whale' and 'Pleiades' attack simultaneously, it will only deal 5300 damage."

"Then let's add this monster to this."

At this point, Youxi had two cards left in his hand, and he played one of them.

"Unleash the 'Giant Eye' of the Mage race to Special Summon 'Silent Magician'!"

"Silent Magician, Level 4/Light/Mage" "ATK: 1000/DEF: 1000"

The figure of "Giant Eye," who had captured one of the enemy's generals for Yuki, disappeared from the field, replaced by a silver-haired, long-haired, mature female magician.

The close-fitting blue and white robes accentuated an extraordinary sensuality, making them incredibly alluring.

This is also the last trump card that Youxi needs.

"Master, please give Zero any orders."

"Let's proceed into the battle phase."

Yuki drew his last card and placed it into the Duel Disk: "Quick-Play Spell Activation: 'Silence Magic Blast'! This can only be activated if I have 'Silence Magician' on my field during the Battle Phase, and my opponent has fewer cards in hand than I do. Both players draw six cards from their hands."

"The 'Silent Magician's' attack power increases with the number of cards in my hand, reaching 4000 when I draw 6. That's enough damage output!"

"But have you forgotten what I activated before?"

Canglan frowned and reminded him, "Because of 'White Roar,' all the effects of your spell cards on the field will be negated!"

"Indeed, that's true for most card games."

Yu Xi first nodded in agreement with Cang Lan's statement, then added, "However, 'Silence Blast' is not an ordinary spell card—its activation and effect cannot be negated."

"What did you say?"

Shenwei and Canglan were startled upon hearing this. Upon closer inspection, they saw that the wave generated by "White Roar" had no effect on the "Silence Magic Blast" card.
