Daily life of a teacher in the martial arts department

【Auspicious Opportunity】: Awakening Skill. During the preparation phase, if the number of rounds on the field is greater than or equal to the total number of players minus two, you lose 【Recovery】, your maximum health becomes 4 points, and you gain 【Original Ancestor】.

【Original Ancestor】: Locked Skill. At the start of your turn, you randomly draw two general cards from the general deck. If one of the general cards is the Ancestor Alien, you gain all the skills of those two generals and lose 【Original Ancestor】. If none of the general cards is the Ancestor, you gain one non-awakened mission skill of one of the generals and repeat this process at the start of your next turn.

(Am I...the first one?)

The nature of event cards is obvious to anyone who knows them; they're definitely designs that haven't been thought out much, and they don't even consider character compatibility. This card is a perfect example of that.

"Gu" is a fictional artistic figure, similar to the Red Emperor and the Passerby—not that the Red Emperor and the Passerby did not exist, but that this name was given to them by human wishful thinking, and no one knows what they were actually like.

Gu is the original progenitor recorded in the Hidden Records, from the "Chaos Chapter" of the Hidden Records. He is the first progenitor alien race in the world. Apart from that, there is no information. What kind of magical beast he was when he underwent tribulation is unknown. What happened to him afterward is unknown. What abilities he had is unknown. What he did is also unknown. Whether he even existed or not is also unknown.

This is the kind of character that Time-Space Kill dares to put in the event arena... This shows how low the value of the event arena is. Although the strength of event arena cards might be able to easily defeat divine generals, the strength of divine generals is honestly irrelevant; they don't need Time-Space Kill to demonstrate their strength. But if Time-Space Kill doesn't release their cards, the entire company's credibility will plummet.

After Nephalem was taken down by Divine Heart, it was Ying Qin Guan's turn. If he were at low health, he could have used an infinite combo, playing cards from his deck, and perhaps even killed Yu Xie Tian. However, Ying Qin Guan was at full health. After using a red kill card to reduce the health of four people (including the Black Dragon Emperor's fully armored half-owl), Ying Qin Guan ended his turn.

In the third round, Yu Xietian awakened and reached out to touch the pile of generals on the side.

“Generally speaking, no general can threaten the awakened nameless swordsman of Southern Qin,” Neferpitou said, stroking his chin. “To punish someone who relies on a deck-based strategy, you'd have to play with a deck yourself. But someone like Ji Li has a complete set of skills and a high health cap, so that probably won't work. Therefore, if we're talking about counterplay, it's probably…”

"Is this the one?"

Yu Xietian's voice interrupted Nephalem. He flipped over two general cards, neither of which were the progenitors, but one of them was... SP Ring of Truth.

“This is it.” Nephalem frowned slightly and said in a low voice, “Absolutely unlucky.”

Yes, absolutely terrible luck.

With healing and card-drawing support, the Ring of Truth is very effective against the Awakened Nameless Swordsman of Southern Qin. This is because its unreasonable, powerful life-reduction ability can overwhelm the Nameless Swordsman. However, if it's the Divine Ring of Truth, it doesn't matter at all, because all the skills of a Divine General cannot be obtained by other generals. Unfortunately, Yu Xietian drew this SP Ring of Truth.

This card's effect is a youth version of the Ring of Truth, with only one skill, a four-point maximum stamina, and a skill effect where you choose two out of three.

1. Unable to respond, i.e., forced command.

Second: Infinite distance.

Three: The damage dealt is now reduced to the maximum.

Almost no general could face the nameless swordsman of Southern Qin head-on, but... Yu Xietian drew this card.

Nephalem frowned.

"We can only rush Yu Xietian first. After all, she's only a squishy character with four health points. Shenxin and Zhaoyunxian aren't support characters and don't have healing abilities, so we should be able to push her down quickly..."

Ying Qin Guan shared the same idea as Nephalem. However, in the next round, Yu Xie Tian drew a general with healing abilities, a top-tier general with three health points and one skill, which immediately slowed down Ying Qin Guan's progress.

"How could this be..."

Yu Xietian's series of divine draws put Ying Qin Guan in a difficult situation. In the blink of an eye, his maximum stamina was reduced to four points.

Nephalem frowned, while Zhao Yunxian and the two from Yorozuya were all smiles. Defeating the awakened nameless swordsman from Southern Qin was a huge achievement... Although it was mainly due to Yu Xietian's immortal techniques, immortal techniques are also a part of strength.

Ying Qin Guan remained calm and discarded a kill card.

"Why discard that kill card..."

Nephalem walked behind Ying Qin Guan and looked at his hand. No one had touched him except for Yu Xie Tian, ​​so he had been at full health, but his maximum health was being constantly reduced. Just now, he only had Black Kill, which killed the other three people with one strike. His current hand consists of 'Fire Attack', 'Kill', 'Borrowing a Knife to Kill', and 'Crazy Blade'.

"What are they fighting..."

Nephalem frowned, looking at Yu Xietian, who also only had one drop of health left. Although he had drawn a survival skill that restored one health point on his first near-death experience each turn, if he were to use Fire Attack followed by a Berserker's Blade, he might be able to finish him off, and then there would still be a chance...

"We can't win."

Suddenly, Ying Qin Guan spoke. The other three at the card table thought Ying Qin Guan was giving up on himself, but Nefertari seemed to understand... These words were spoken by Ying Qin Guan to himself.

Ying Qin Guan calmly said:

"If we play the way you think, we absolutely won't win; they definitely still have peaches."

Nephalem whispered, "Even so, what can we do if we wait? They won't attack you. You only draw two cards each turn. If you didn't go all in just now, how can you play next?"

Ying Qin Guan said, "I'm waiting."

"Wait?" Nephalem asked, puzzled. "Wait for what?"

While the two were talking, the other three quickly completed a round. Yu Xietian made a killing move, while the other two remained calm and did not make any moves.

Ying Qin Guan remained calm as he drew a card, as if gambling, revealing a corner of it... It was the two of spades.

"This is the card I've been waiting for."

Chapter Seventy-Four: King of Spades

Waiting is a rare and precious quality. Many people perish before dawn because they lack the courage to keep waiting.

Yes, waiting takes courage, and sometimes, waiting takes more courage than death.

Ying Qin Guan remained calm.

If a hundred people come, ninety-nine of them will choose to use the Fire Attack and Kill cards in the previous round, going all in and recklessly killing Yu Xietian... Yes, that's right, because if they don't kill Yu Xietian, they will lose no matter what.

However... Yu Xietian spent seven rounds reducing Ying Qin Guan's maximum health to four points. During those seven rounds, the three opponents drew more than 50 cards. Although she used two cards in the middle, was she really betting that they didn't have any peaches in their hands?

impossible..

"One hundred and sixty-one cards, twelve hearts, I discarded one, one was used to save the Nephalem, they used two, and there are eight left..."

Ying Qin Guan glanced at the deck of cards; it was less than half full.

"If I had gone all in, I'd be finished now..."

Ying Qin Guan shook his head and flipped over the card he had drawn... it was rattan armor.

Nephalem's pupils suddenly contracted.

Yu Xietian, standing to the side, wore a pained expression. He was completely unaware of what had happened, only thinking that once Ying Qin Guan put on his rattan armor, he could survive for a long time.

Shen Xin suddenly frowned. She smelled a terrible scent on Ying Qin Guan. This scent... she had also smelled it when the boss was sitting at the gambling table adjusting his glasses.

"Still want to struggle? Speaking of which, that leftmost card in his hand has been held since the start of the game. Facing Yu Xietian, it's definitely not a Flash Peach. It hasn't been used for so long, so it's probably not an equipment card. He missed a Kill card in the middle, but didn't use it either, so it's definitely not a Kill card. Is it a damage card? But damage cards are useless because I have..."

Shen Xin scanned his hand and saw three peaches. There was no way Ying Qin Guan could kill Yu Xie Tian with damage alone.

Then, Ying Qin Guan's calm voice rang out.

"Fire attack, use it on myself."

【"What?!"】

"Fire attack?! It's a fire attack!"

Shen Xin suddenly understood... Ying Qin Guan knew that he and Zhao Yun Xian wouldn't attack him; he was always at full health. That's why he kept the Fire Attack card. However, Fire Attack alone wasn't enough, so he patiently waited until he received the Rattan Armor...

Without needing anyone to reveal their cards, Ying Qin Guan revealed the card "Borrowing a Knife to Kill" from his hand... He was using fire attack on himself.

"So that's how it is..." Nephalem looked at this scene and suddenly realized that this fire attack had always been reserved for him, a desperate counterattack full of faith... Ying Qin Guan had been waiting for that rattan armor, in order to truly force himself into a desperate situation.

The nameless swordsman of Southern Qin in dire straits is truly the nameless swordsman of Southern Qin.

"In that case, there might still be a chance..."

Just as Nephalem was having this thought, Zhao Yunxian's calm voice rang out.

"Stop... It's flawless."

As she spoke, she threw out her impeccable hand, ending Ying Qin Guan's desperate, faith-driven counterattack.

Ying Qin Guan looked up and saw Zhao Yunxian looking at him calmly, speaking in a nonchalant tone:

"I've been on guard all along. This is your last counterattack, isn't it? It's useless now. The fire attack with the 24 of hearts has already been used. This fire attack with the Queen of diamonds is your last hope. So you kept it until the very end. Unfortunately, if this fire attack is also neutralized, you won't survive until the shuffle and restart... unless you have a neutralized card in your hand. But there are seven neutralized cards in total, five in the deck and one in my hand. Do you have the last King of spades in your hand? Probably not. The supreme 'king' is not in your hand."

The King of Spades is considered the highest-ranking card in a deck of cards and is called the "King".

Ying Qin Guan's expression remained unchanged. Naifeitian sighed... Yes, Ying Qin Guan certainly didn't have the King of Spades. His Fire Attack was already used up, and there was no way he could hold out until the shuffle, until the next round of Fire Attack. Moreover, he absolutely couldn't break through Yu Xietian's defenses, so...

"It's over... I actually lost like that, what bad luck..."

Nephalem's tone carried a hint of complaint, indicating that he also thought the game was over. He had originally thought that Ying Qin Guan would have a good surprise with his explosive move... but no one did.

Zhao Yunxian crossed her arms, leaned back in her chair, and stared intently at Ying Qin Guan.

"Yes, it's over. With Fire Attack now neutralized, your chances of winning are zero. Since you don't even have Neutralize left in your deck, what's the use of having two cards in one turn?"

She whispered, "Ying Qin Guan, you've lost."

"I lost?"

Ying Qin Guan muttered to himself, then asked, "Are you sure?"

Zhao Yunxian was slightly taken aback, and was about to continue when Shenxin raised the small blackboard.

"No...wait, it's not over yet, he has one more card!"

There's one more card?

This statement drew everyone's attention, and they all looked over, only to discover that next to the rattan armor... there was actually a covered plaque.

"It seems everyone has forgotten about it," Ying Qin Guan said softly. "Even if you're a card-drawing white, you can still draw two cards per turn."

Yes...everyone gets to draw two cards; even a fool knows that. However, Ying Qin Guan only revealed the Rattan Armor card, then used the Fire Attack card. After that, Zhao Yun Xian's impeccable defense and lengthy discourse attracted everyone's attention, leaving no time for anyone to notice the other card Ying Qin Guan had drawn.

This is a card that has not yet been revealed, from the deck, and represents Ying Qinguan's last hope.

"You mean this card will be the King of Spades?!"

Zhao Yunxian said in a low voice, "Is this possible? To find both the rattan armor and the invincible armor at the same time, do you think you'd be that lucky?"

"I don't know." Ying Qin Guan's voice remained calm as he softly said, "I only know that only by drawing both of these cards simultaneously do I have a chance to win. So, I can only wait like this... It's possible that I'll be slowly chipped away at his health until he dies without ever having a chance to unleash his power, or it's possible that in these final moments, at this crucial time, I'll seize that opportunity..."

"I haven't looked at this card either, but I think it's the final, flawless one."

Zhao Yunxian squinted, staring intently into Ying Qin Guan's pupils, hoping to glean something from them, but there was nothing in Ying Qin Guan's pupils.

"The King of Spades, the King of Spades, could it be it?"

"Thinking about these things is pointless...because it can only be, and must be."

Ying Qin Guan reached out and flipped open the card next to the rattan armor, drawing everyone's attention.

..

The author believes that the stone lion has the meaning of "quickly dispelling evil ways" and therefore regards it as a kind of guardian. The Time and Space Killing Company thinks this meaning is good, and the stone lion can also be understood as "protecting the card holder". Therefore, in the flawless card, there is a stone lion that awes all sides.

Looking down with an expressionless face, Zhao Yunxian saw that the stone lion had a majestic face and seemed about to roar to drive away all gods and ghosts.

It was the last, flawless, supreme king card, the King of Spades.
