Yu-Gi-Oh!: The mainstream has returned, and the locals are crying.

He had just finished speaking when Luo Hao chimed in, "Our Duel Association is the same, but our Duel Association is a world-class organization, not restricted by any country. If you are strong enough to become the president of the World Duel Association, even the King-level duelists known as the King of Duels will not dare to underestimate you."

"I'll definitely do it next time," You Ye replied without hesitation.

His former headmaster at the Duel Academy had tried to persuade him to join a faction, as obtaining cards through a faction would be much easier, but he naturally refused.

In a world where duels are the main focus, he possesses so much knowledge and the strongest attributes; he's bound to become the strongest person sooner or later. Why should he serve as a dog for the people of this world?

Do the people in this world deserve it?

"Alright." Wang Cheng and Luo Hao sighed inwardly. Judging from the report, they weren't stupid. They naturally knew that the Bai family had already tried to win them over, but the result was naturally a rejection. Otherwise, You Ye wouldn't have only brought Mu Ning to the Duel Association's rule certification.

"Then please note that the card list you released yesterday is not known to us, but to certain people and certain forces. In some ways, they are more dangerous to you than the Dark Duelists."

"Thank you." Upon hearing this, You Ye naturally knew that this meant he was being watched, and his expression immediately tightened slightly as he expressed his gratitude.

Chapter 32 The Dark Duelist is Here!

"Heh, you dare to lay a hand on the night? Do you really think I'm not here?" Munin, who had been silent all along, said with a cold expression.

She is an elf, a high-level elf among elves. With the power of the Divine Stele, most Earth-level duelists are nothing to her. Only Heaven-level duelists can fight her.

With her protecting You Ye, she didn't think anyone could threaten You Ye in Hangzhou.

“Muning, you are strong, but you are an elf, while the senior has only just completed the World Water certification of human duelists. You think too deeply.” Luo Hao said slowly, a hint of apprehension on his face, without going into details.

You Ye remained calm, as he had been mentally prepared for this.

Whether it's the people or family forces in this world who are controlling the card pool so tightly, or Luo Hao's actions just now, it's clear to everyone that this world prioritizes individual interests over family and power interests.

Sacrifice for others? That's a joke!

Unsurprisingly, their role in certifying or catching rule-breaking duelists is required by the rules.

Taking himself as an example, after becoming a Yellow-level duelist, the dueling rules required him to: Master Duel Platinum rank + complete the Wheelchair Crimson Tears Elegy Clan + win the city competition.

Once all three conditions are met, one can go to the Duel Association to complete the Xuan-level certification. If successful, one will become a Xuan-level duelist.

These requirements, especially the third one, were not mandated by the rules; he simply wouldn't bother to fulfill them. Wang Cheng and the others probably felt the same way, otherwise they wouldn't have handled certain incidents.

They all act this way. Given his enormous interests, not everyone or every family or power can produce the cards he wants, and they are also willing to give him the cards he wants. Some people or families or powers cannot produce or are unwilling to produce these cards, but they still want his help. What will they do?

The answer is simple: get it for free!

"Don't worry, I understand." You Ye nodded, then asked, "Do you know which city nearby has a dueling tournament?"

"A city-level duel competition? We have one in Hangzhou. I remember this month's competition has already reached the top 32. If you need it, I'll give you one of our Inspectorate's top four spots, so you can directly participate in the semi-finals and finals." Wang Cheng's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately said.

As a level-one duelist, he immediately understood what You Yewen was trying to do. He naturally wouldn't let go of this opportunity to curry favor and gain favor with others.

"You've been a great help. These general-purpose cards are effective. If you want any, you can contact me. I'll give you a free consultation." You Ye smiled after hearing this. He accepted the suggestion, but he would pass on the favor. As a transmigrator, he naturally understood that the hardest thing to repay these days was not money, but favors.

"Okay." Wang Cheng's smile froze, then he nodded with a wry smile. You Ye looked young, but he was meticulous in his work, making it so difficult to win him over.

"Senior, Minister Luo, Director Wang, I've brought the card." Chang Xingge's voice came from outside the door just as the two finished talking.

"Come in," Luo Hao said. As soon as he spoke, Chang Xingge opened the door and walked in, excitedly handing the tablet in his hand to You Ye.

Since everything had already been agreed upon, he naturally accepted the watch without hesitation.

Two full hours passed, and Yu Ye's eyes were filled with surprise after watching. The Duel Association truly lived up to its reputation as a world-class organization; the card list of one of its branches was far more extensive than the card list that the Bai family had given him.

Putting aside individual cards, there are cards in about ten fields, more than half of the cards in over twenty fields, and countless cards scattered across various fields.

It's a real shame that there isn't a card suitable for Zhu Lei.

"Besides the Anaconda I just mentioned, I want Dark Magician, Red-Eyes Black Dragon, Red-Eyes Fusion, Temporary Truce, Treasure Card of Life, Winged Rathalos Sphere, Coral Dragon, and Stardust Charge Warrior. These eight cards should be fine, right?" Over the past two hours, while looking at the cards, Yu Ye had naturally selected the ones he wanted.

After this, his Divine Stele was greatly enhanced once again, especially his ability to expand and pass cards was further improved.

Even if Izumi is targeted and excluded, he can still put up a fight by creating Red-Eyes Dragon Knight and combining it with cards like Saya and Flowers.

"Of course, no problem." Luo Hao nodded with a smile. Although he was curious about what Yuya would do with the three cards from the True Red Eyes Fusion, he wisely refrained from asking further questions.

As for the other cards, he knew a little about them except for the Ceasefire Agreement, so he wasn't surprised. For example, the Divine Egg, although it didn't have any other card combos, was a great removal card.

Next, You Ye had lunch with them at their invitation, and was then driven back to the shop by Chang Xingge.

Back at the shop, Munin, who had been quiet all day, looked at You Ye seriously and reminded him, "Ye, if Long Huiqiao gives away such a powerful build, that build might become a threat to us."

"She is not only someone with the Dragon Radiance skill field who can possess that, but also someone with the Declarator field can use that construction, and even someone without these two fields can, it's just that the price they have to pay will be much higher."

"With two cards activated, even without the extraterrestrial angels, you can still guarantee at least five health points. That's really good." Seeing her serious expression, You Ye knew she was concerned about him. He stroked her soft hair and smiled slightly.

"Then..." Muning was about to speak, puzzled, when Yu Ye handed her a golden card, a four-star Rock-type Soul Monster, and slowly said, "Use it well. Traditional Divine Monuments can only bully ordinary duelists. They can't win against truly strong opponents. Try Sticker Monuments instead!"

“I think I understand why the organization cares about you.” As You Ye finished speaking, a person dressed in a black robe appeared in the shop at some point and stood less than two meters away from You Ye.

When Muning saw this person appear, she was about to initiate a duel against him by force when a black knight elf appeared and blocked her way. Muning's expression changed drastically, and she prepared to duel the knight elf first to deal with it before dealing with the black-robed man.

At this moment, You Ye raised her hand to indicate that she didn't need to give her a reassuring look, then looked at the man in black robes and asked with a faint smile, "An organization? So that's the Dark Duelist?"

"Yes. So, would you like to join?" The man in black robes looked at You Ye's calm demeanor, a hint of surprise flashing across his face beneath the robes. Most people would have been trembling with fear in their presence, but You Ye had been chatting with him casually. So, he went straight to the point and extended an invitation.

"Aren't you going to mention the conditions? The Inspectorate and the Duel Association have offered some pretty good terms." Upon hearing the black-robed man extend an invitation, Yu Ye retorted, completely disregarding the dark duelist before him as an enemy, treating him as if he were a long-lost friend.

"Someone like you, whether you join or not, are conditions that can be met?" the man in black robes asked with a smile, as if he had believed from the beginning that stating the conditions was useless. Whether You Ye joined or not, he must have already decided by himself, so saying any conditions was pointless.

“Indeed, I will not join under any circumstances.” You Ye nodded seriously, confirming this fact.

"Did you hear that? We can begin." After You Ye answered, the black-robed man's calm voice rang out.

As soon as the voice fell, the entire shop was instantly engulfed by black mist that seemed to come from nowhere, as if it were about to drag people into an abyss.

The appearance of the mist did not frighten Youye; instead, it filled him with curiosity. He sensed the existence of dueling rules within the mist. Just as he was about to study it carefully, a gaunt man appeared in front of him, holding a dueling disk and launching a dark duel with a sinister smile.

You Ye glanced indifferently at the gaunt man, then looked strangely at the black-robed figure who had just been talking to him: "You Dark Duelists look down on me so much? You've chosen a half-dead person to duel with me in the Dark?"

"With your dueling skills, which are at least at the Grandmaster level, how could we possibly look down on you! Hehe, he's a former near-Earth level duelist—Dark Worm—whom we specially prepared for you last night after we learned about your situation."

"He may not be the strongest dark duelist in Hangzhou, but he is definitely the dark duelist with the best chance of defeating you, without exception."

The man in the black robe chuckled, paused slightly after speaking, and continued.

"You should have figured it out by now. Yes, this is a Dark Duel, and its rules are: if you win, he dies, and all his personal property is yours; if you lose, you join us Dark Duelists, hand over all your dueling knowledge, and serve us Dark Duelists!"

Happy Dragon Boat Festival! I'm still writing, begging you to read and add this to your favorites!

Chapter 33: A Blood-Burning Deck Specialized for the Divine Stele!

"Even though he can't win, I'm at a huge loss!" You Ye didn't accept, rubbing his chin with his right hand.

Seeing You Ye deep in thought, An Chong's eerie smile froze, his eyes widening as if he didn't understand what was happening before him.

"what?"

The black-robed figure's eyes emitted a faint green light. Dark duels are leverage duels where life is the stake. Since it's leverage, there's a ratio involved. For example, this duel is roughly one hundred to one. Their demands are within a hundred times the value of the Dark Insect. According to the rules, You Ye must duel the Dark Insect.

Now that Youye can consider it, it means that the duel rules determine that Youye's joining and sharing knowledge with them is worth a hundred times more than that of the Dark Worms.

A hundred times stronger than a quasi-Earth-level duelist! This lever, which can be moved even by a Heaven-level fighter, can't move You Ye? That's a bit outrageous.

Then he got excited!

The fact that they can't pry him away means that You Ye's value exceeds that of an ordinary Heavenly-level being. It is the right choice to win him over now and make him a partner of their Dark Duelists!

The problem is how to leverage the situation and force Yu to agree to the Dark Duel. Otherwise, no matter how much Yu knows, what does it have to do with them, the Dark Duels?

A few seconds later, he went numb and paid for the card that You Ye had asked for. Only after all these conditions were met did he manage to lift the lever.

"Hmm? Forced duel? The requirements have changed too. It's just joining. The previous conditions of sharing knowledge and helping them build decks are gone? If you win, you get all the assets, including the Dark Insect deck, and you also get an extra card from your own published decklist?"

At the same time, Yu Ye noticed that the duel rules indicated that a dark duel was about to begin, and he was slightly taken aback when he looked at the terms.

“Night, you can think of the Dark Duel as leverage. The value they offered just now wasn't enough, so they increased their stakes and reduced your demands, making the leverage work and forcing you into the Dark Duel,” Munin explained to You Ye, who was being pestered.

"I see, then let's begin." After Muning explained, Youye's lips curled up slightly.

Upon hearing this, he suddenly realized that these people were not Dark Duelists at all, but rather mobile gold coin monsters waiting for him to defeat them and collect gold coins.

His gaze immediately turned to the man in black robes, filled with excitement. The duel hadn't even started yet, but he was already looking forward to the next dark duelist giving him a huge amount of gold coins!

Man in black robe: ???

Feeling the burning gaze in You Ye's eyes, the man in black robes felt a chill for some reason, and his body trembled slightly involuntarily, as if he were being stared at by some great terror.

This completely confused him. Was he the Dark Duelist, or was it Yuya?

"Kid, do you look down on me that much?" The hoarse and angry voice of the Dark Insect, who had been ignored all along, came out.

He's a duelist who's just one level away from being certified in the rules, and he's a Dark Duelist. Normally, when duelists encounter him, they all turn and run away. Today, someone actually ignored him, and he's a duelist who just got certified in the rules. How could he tolerate that?

As for Master Youye's dueling rank being a billion points high? So what? This is a normal duel. In this duel, Youye can't use any powerful decks except for dueling knowledge!

“Yes!” You Ye turned around, glanced at the Dark Insect for a second, and nodded seriously.

Mnin: 0V0!

Black-robed man: oO!?

Dark Insect: ┗|｀O′|┛
