Card Kingdom: This kid's codex is full of gold

"What the hell! Are the rules of this dungeon wrong?! Why are they deducting so much of our combat power?!"

"Could it be...?"

Zhou Na suddenly turned to look at Zhang Yun, and asked in shock, "Zhang Yun, you...you've cleared the dungeon multiple times and killed several bosses, haven't you?"

"That's not much."

Zhang Yun touched his nose and laughed, "I've probably only cleared the game three times and killed the dungeon boss three times."

"You bastard!"

Zhou Na couldn't help but swear, "If you're so capable, why didn't you say so sooner! Are you happy to freeload off me?!"

Zhang Yun shrugged innocently: "I just mentioned it to you, that the winner would treat us to dinner, but you insisted on saying the loser would treat us. What could I do?"

"How about we change the bet? The winner treats everyone to dinner?"

"Get lost! You filthy liar! You scumbag! I won't lose to you!"

Teacher Zhou Na gritted her teeth in anger and said defiantly, "The bet remains the same! But you're only allowed to use this little skeleton, and you're not allowed to summon any other card beasts!"

"Also... unless our monsters can't hold out, you're not allowed to personally deal with the monsters in the dungeon!"

"Alright, alright..."

"Whatever you say, but... I can use Soul Techniques to control the Codex and fight monsters, right?"

"Tch, you've only just begun to understand the Soul Technique. Even if you can manipulate the codex to fight enemies, how much combat power can you actually unleash? Do whatever you want."

Feeling utterly humiliated by this bratty student, Teacher Zhou Na summoned her main battle card, "Come forth, Black Speed-Attack Ninja!"

Because Ms. Zhou Na is rather lazy, she only raised one main monster.

At her summons, a bright silver beam shot out from the codex, converging into a black figure.

The figure was extremely short, less than 140 centimeters tall, and its face was completely covered by a black mask, revealing only a pair of narrow, dark red eyes.

He had two Japanese swords hanging at his waist, one long and one short.

It immediately positioned itself beside Zhou Na, one hand resting on the long sword at its waist, its eyes scanning the surroundings warily, as if it might launch a surprise attack at any moment.

[Black Speed ​​Ninja: Dark Element]

[Race Rank: Mutated Silver]

[Biotype Level: Tier 2, Stage 5 (Suppression: Tier 1, Stage 5)]

Overall combat strength: 4500

[Dungeon Combat Strength: 315 (420x75%)]

Seeing that her Black Speed ​​Ninja combat power was suppressed to 315, Teacher Zhou Na's mouth twitched.

With this kind of combat power, if they faced the eight silver monsters in the second level, they would probably be utterly crushed.

After all, the silver monsters in the second level have a combat power of 250-300. If you add 25%, their combat power will break through the 300 mark.

With only 315 combat power left, the Black Speed ​​Ninja would definitely be defeated when facing eight Silver monsters with combat power of 300+.

However, she is not worried about safety issues.

After all, Zhang Yun is definitely hiding some trump cards; he might even have one or two gold cards in his hand. Breaking through the second level shouldn't be a problem for him.

But as a teacher, she has a lot to be proud of!

How can we afford to lose to the students by too much?

If we can't beat the big monsters, we'll beat the small ones!

She immediately gave the order: "Charge! Black-clad speed-attack ninjas, wipe out all 20 bronze dire wolves in the first stage!"

Hi--!

The black-clad ninja let out a low shout, transforming into a blur as he rushed towards the tunnel ahead.

The little skeleton Kaka is extremely intelligent. Knowing that its master needs to gain experience, it kicks its short legs and shoots out like an arrow without waiting for its master's command.

Its speed was in no way inferior to that of the Black Speed ​​Ninja.

Upon seeing this, Teacher Zhou Na was also taken aback. "What kind of skeleton is this? How come its speed is almost as fast as an agile monster? Isn't the biggest weakness of skeleton soldiers their lack of flexibility?"

"My Kaka isn't an ordinary skeleton."

Zhang Yun smiled, offered no further explanation, and quickly walked towards the passageway carrying the legal code.

"Tch, so what if it's fast? My Black Speed ​​Ninja knows martial arts!"

Teacher Zhou Na lifted her foot and chased after him, ready to see whether her ninja was stronger or Zhang Yun's skeleton was more powerful.

...

Deep inside the tunnel, the icy mist suddenly churned violently.

Awooo—!

Twenty gray-black wolf shadows leaped out of the icy mist, their fangs bared and their eyes bloodshot, and pounced forward in a fan shape.

ha--!

The black-clad ninja ducked low, like a streak of ink lightning, and plunged into the wolf pack.

The two Japanese swords at his waist were drawn simultaneously, one long and one short, drawing two intersecting arcs in the air.

Waaah!

The two dire wolves at the forefront were simultaneously struck by the blade, their shoulder blades splitting open with two deep, bone-revealing wounds. They screamed and staggered backward.

The grayish-black wolf blood splattered on the ice wall, instantly condensing into dark red ice crystals.

Normally, a Black Speed ​​Ninja with 420 combat power can easily kill a Bronze Dire Wolf with 100 combat power.

However, after being weakened by the debuff, it can no longer deliver a one-hit kill.

At that moment, the other bronze dire wolves, seeing their companion wounded by the black-clad ninja, rushed towards it.

The black-clad ninja was extremely cautious and did not pursue. Instead, he flashed and retreated.

To avoid being besieged.

Unlike the wolf pack, the little skeleton, wielding an alloy longsword, charged straight at the wolves as they advanced.

The Black Speed ​​Ninja, being a humanoid card beast, possessed considerable intelligence. It glanced at the little skeleton and shook its head.

I thought to myself that this skeleton monster was still too naive.

Charging against 20 dire wolves will only result in being destroyed if you are surrounded.

It felt insulted that its owner had made it race against such a weakling.

With the mindset that allies are one's own people, the black-clad ninja prepared to go and help the little skeleton to prevent it from being ganged up on.

However...

Click-click—!

Just as he was about to collide with the pack of wolves, the little skeleton suddenly swung his alloy longsword and activated his S-rank skill—Swift Wind Sword Technique!

In an instant, the alloy longsword in its hand burst forth with dazzling light.

Dozens of sword lights poured out from the sword's edge like a torrential rain.

The sword light tore through the air, emitting a sharp whistling sound, and wove into an impenetrable dark gold sword net in the narrow passage.

In an instant, the sword net swept past twenty charging dire wolves.

Puff puff puff—!

As a series of muffled thuds rang out, the movements of the twenty dire wolves froze at the same moment, and fear was revealed in their eyes.

The next instant, extremely thin sword marks appeared simultaneously on their throats, between their eyebrows, and at the location of their hearts.

Then, the wound burst open, and blood mist filled the air!

Ouch!

Waaah!

The twenty bronze dire wolves let out miserable howls, raised their heads and fell down, turning into a cloud of light and mist that rose up!

What?!

The Black Speed ​​Ninja was completely stunned when he witnessed this scene!

The entire monster froze in place.

In an instant, it killed 20 dire wolves. What kind of monster skeleton is this? How dare it have such formidable combat power?

The owner actually made me compete with such a powerful skeleton for monsters? Isn't that ridiculous?!

How could I possibly compete with that? I might as well just lie on the ground and give up...

At that moment, Zhou Na also arrived nearby. She witnessed the scene of 20 bronze dire wolves being killed instantly, her eyes widening so much they almost burst through her glasses.

He let out a terrified scream:

"One sword technique instantly killed twenty bronze dire wolves, and that was even with a 25% advantage in combat power."

"What kind of skeleton is that?! How dare they be so grotesque!"

Teacher Zhou Na suddenly turned to look at Zhang Yun, her face full of shock, and asked, "Zhang Yun, that...that skeleton wouldn't happen to be a Gold-level one, would it?"

"Absolutely..."

Zhang Yun didn't mince words, saying bluntly, "These days, without one or two gold cards, who would dare to venture into the underground palace?"

"Teacher, don't you have one?"

"You...you...get out!"

"Teacher, why are you swearing at me?"

"Mind your own business!"

Teacher Zhou Na felt like she'd been tricked by this damn student again...

She's definitely treating us to a seafood feast at noon...
