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

Seeing Chunhu's foolish appearance, Feiyu's shoulders slumped, and he waved his hand helplessly, saying, "So, what did you say you encountered? You rushed over here so urgently, it must be something very important."

"Ah, that's right! This is very important!"

Chunhu nodded seriously and replied, "Just now, while I was playing a quick match on DL, I encountered a very interesting opponent!"

"what?"

Fei Yu didn't know what Chun Hu was talking about. He only felt his lips twitch slightly and his blood pressure began to rise slowly.

Oblivious to this, Harutora continued excitedly, "That guy named Yuki is really strong and interesting. He's the strongest opponent I've faced recently besides the captain. I can tell he's about our age, so we might run into each other in the Star Cup!"

"...Hey, Chunhu. Just in case I'm mistaken, let me ask you first. Is this the important thing you're referring to?"

"Yes, isn't that important?"

"Important my foot, you idiot! I think you're just messing with me, aren't you! You're messing with me, aren't you!"

Fei Yu finally couldn't hold back any longer and exploded. He cursed loudly and even wanted to give Chun Hu a hard knock on the head.

Unfortunately, the latter was too strong and tall, making it impossible for his wish to come true. Besides, he was no longer the delinquent he used to be, and it wouldn't be appropriate for him to do such a thing in public.

However, that anger was genuine and was absorbed by Chunhu.

"No, no, no, you've got it wrong, Feiyu. I'm not kidding you, I'm seriously talking to you about something."

"I can't see anything about you not playing a trick on me."

With a cold laugh, Fei Yu looked contemptuously at Chun Hu, who was trying to argue.

This wasn't the first or second time; he wanted to see what other nonsense this guy could spout.

"This time it's for real! You'll understand once you hear me out," Harutora said earnestly. "This time, my opponent is very different. Yuki isn't just strong; he actually broke through my 'Gun King' suppression!"

"That's nothing surprising."

Fei Yu said lazily, "There are plenty of experts in the world. Your 'Gun King' skill looks impressive, but it's actually very difficult to produce, and countering it isn't that hard."

"But his solution is completely different! It will definitely give you a big surprise! And, do you know about the Fantasy Demon? Yuki used a Fantasy Demon monster!"

"……What did you say?"

After a flurry of anxious explanations, Chunhu finally unleashed his trump card.

This successfully changed Fei Yu's expression.

"Fantasy Demons? What are those?"

"You don't know either, right?"

Harutora laughed smugly, "Following the Cyber ​​Race discovered by Kaiba Corporation a hundred years ago, a brand new race has finally appeared! This news is important enough, isn't it?"

"You idiot! This kind of news should be the first thing to be reported!"

Fei Yu glared at Chun Hu with displeasure, then reached out and urged, "You recorded the whole duel, so bring it to me to see!"

"Hehe, you've finally become interested."

Ignoring Fei Yu's scolding, Chun Hu took out his phone from his pocket and handed it over.

Feiyu snatched it away without hesitation and led Chunhu to a quiet corner to watch it at double speed.

Before long, Fei Yu had watched the whole thing, including the scene of how Chun Hu was brutally killed.

"How about it?"

Chunhu lowered his head and asked Feiyu, who had been silent for a moment.

"I told you this opponent was interesting, didn't I?"

"It's really interesting."

Fei Yu swiped his finger, his meaningful gaze falling on the magnified image of the "Fantasy Monster Chimera".

"A monster whose card name is used as 'Winged Mythical Beast Chimera,' could it be... such a coincidence in the world?"

"A coincidence?" Chunhu asked in disbelief, "Is there any coincidence in this?"

"You don't know yet, Chunhu? Well, with your blockhead, you probably wouldn't bother listening to this kind of gossip."

Contrary to what she had said before, Fei Yu was in a good mood and patiently explained, "A few days ago, a video circulated on our Morning Light City dueling forum. It was a video of our academy chairman's son being publicly humiliated."

"Huh? That Satomi Sho?" Harutora frowned. "What does that have to do with this?"

"It's not really related in itself, the point is that the video shows the entire duel where one of our college's teachers was defeated by a student from another school. Furthermore, that student happened to use 'Winged Beast Chimera' and that 'Chaos Dark Magician,' a card that looks incredibly rare."

Chunhu's eyes widened: "Huh? You mean...!"

Feiyu used his phone to access the video materials on the forum and compared them with Chunhu's duel video.

There are not many things in common between the two duels, but if you really want to analyze them, you can still see some similarities.

"The 'Winged Beast Chimera' is a very old card; only elementary school students would probably use it now. The fact that it appeared twice within a few days makes it hard not to draw connections."

Fei Yu's lips curled up slightly as he said, "Interesting. It seems that following the school's request to meet those guys isn't a bad idea. Let's just consider it necessary intelligence gathering—come with me, Chun Hu."

"Now let's go find the captain; it's time for a battle meeting."

Chapter 58 Friendly Match Invitation

"Kido Harutora, a second-year student at Dawnlight Duel Academy and a regular member of the school team, has achieved excellent results in numerous duel tournaments. He also ranked quite high in last year's Star Cup tournament. His personality, like his card deck, is bold and straightforward. His ace cards are 'King of Annihilation,' 'King of Shining Sword,' and 'King of Steel Breaking Sword'... What a coincidence!"

After helping Xingye Wu wash the dishes, Youxi went online to look up the name the girl had mentioned and easily found information about it on the official website of Chenguang Duel Academy.

After quickly skimming through the text, he immediately confirmed that this was indeed the valiant general himself.

For a moment, You Xi felt a strange sense of absurdity and bewilderment.

Who would have thought that the very first online card game played after logging into DL would result in such close proximity, with the distance between them being only the size of a city?

Moreover, they just happened to be students of the Duel Academy.

...No, judging from the distribution density of duelists, the probability of encountering someone from the Duel Academy at that level is probably indeed higher.

"Oh dear, what a pity, Yu Xijun. The other party is a muscular big man."

You Xi's quiet mutterings were overheard by the girl nearby. Xing Yewu, who was looking at the laptop screen with him, chuckled, "Following the typical plot of a novel, the online person you're fighting with right now should be someone pretending to be a man online, but actually a petite and adorable girl. Then one day, you accidentally discover her secret, and you say, 'Hehehe, you don't want others to know your true identity, do you?' So she can only helplessly accept your offline meetup requests and all sorts of other unreasonable conditions, and in the end, her body and soul gradually fall into the abyss, never to escape your grasp again..."

"The beginning was alright, but the latter part was totally a doujinshi plot!"

You Xi couldn't help but interrupt and complain.

In any case, normal anime and novels wouldn't have plots like this that can't pass censorship... I guess.

"Speaking of which, Miss Hoshino, aren't you a little too knowledgeable?"

How could someone just blurt out such a thing...

"Really?" Xingye Wu tilted her head. "It's normal, nothing strange about it. I'm a teenage girl too, of course I'd be interested in this kind of thing and want to find out more. By the way, Youxi-kun, I'm only telling you this secret. Actually, I write those kinds of stories on some adult websites, and they're pretty popular."

"How about I send you a share, as a side dish for tonight..."

"No, no, no!"

You Xi shook his head vigorously, resolutely rejecting Xing Yewu's seemingly "tempting" proposal.

"Haha, Yu Xijun, you're blushing! Are you blushing? Are you shy?"

"Miss Xingye, please stop making fun of me."

You Xijun sighed, looking somewhat weary.

"Okay, okay, I'm not kidding anymore."

Seeing this, Xing Yewu agreed, though a faint smile lingered at the corner of her mouth, and upon closer inspection, one could also see a slight blush on her face.

However, Yuki, who was extremely embarrassed by the girl, failed to notice this.

Xing Yewu composed herself and then returned to the main topic.

"Well, coincidences aside, it's actually pretty good to have a duel like this, Yuuki-kun. Being able to find out the enemy's strength beforehand is a rare opportunity."

"An enemy..."

After Xingye Wu reminded her, You Xi remembered that there was such a thing.

Putting aside Satomi Sho's situation, Morning Light Duel Academy and Kiyosumi High School are in the same region, so they will inevitably clash in the Star Cup preliminaries. If they want to advance from the preliminaries, they will have to turn Morning Light Duel Academy into their own source of nourishment and stepping stones.

From this perspective, the two sides are indeed enemies that cannot coexist.

Xingye Wu said, "Although Xiaoxue and I believe we won't lose to the people from Chenguang Duel Academy, we haven't actually fought them, so no one knows if we can. If possible, we would really like to have a match with them."

"But can't find an opportunity?"

"Yeah, we were junior high students before. There's a sadly thick, insurmountable barrier between junior high and high school students. The competitions on both sides are quite different, so there are very few opportunities to play against each other on the field. After we went to high school, they probably wouldn't even look down on friendly matches between ordinary schools like ours. Xiaoxue's applications were rejected by the other schools several times."

"So I'm really envious of you, Yuki-kun. You're so lucky to run into the opponent's main player in your very first duel in DL. Ah, I wish I had that kind of luck too."

Xing Yewu spoke softly, and then sighed deeply at the end.

You Xi could definitely feel the envy, jealousy, and resentment in that tone.

"That……"

You Xi thought for a moment and suggested, "How about I talk to the Valiant General? From my personal experience, the Valiant General is a pretty easy person to talk to. Maybe if we ask him directly, we can bypass the school and play cards with those people directly?"

"Oh! That's a great idea! It might actually work."

Xing Yewu's eyes lit up, but then she thought of something and said, "However... I remember that the Duel Academy has a pretty strict management system for its school teams. It might be a bit troublesome if we duel with students from other schools in private. In the end, we'll probably still lose."

"Whether it fails or not, let's try it first. There's no harm in it, right?"

Without hesitation, Youxi put on the DL glasses again and logged into the DL game interface.

Finding the grayed-out avatar of the valiant general in her friend list, You Xi sent him a message.

The valiant general did not reply immediately, but after Youxi and Xingyewu had been watching a duel show to pass the time for a while, the reply came through.

[Heroic General: Hahaha! No problem! Our captain has already agreed, and we'd also like to have a thrilling friendly match with Kiyosumi High School's dueling club! This is what they call great minds think alike! So, Yuki, I'll be looking forward to our next duel! Let's meet up offline then, hahaha (thumbs up)!]

With a simple expression, Youxi could easily imagine the latter laughing in front of her.

However, more important than that is the information revealed in these words.

"Huh? They actually agreed?"

Xing Yewu's face showed a surprised expression; clearly, she really hadn't expected You Xi to succeed.
