Hey! Let's play cards

When I looked over, I saw Teacher Li looking at You Xin with a strange expression.

"Pay attention during a duel. Being distracted is a big taboo during a duel. If you miss an opportunity by mistake, the duel will be ruined." Teacher Li said this not only to You Xin, but also to other students.

You Xin scratched his head a little embarrassedly and apologized quickly. After all, this was his first time to truly experience a Yu-Gi-Oh Duel and he got so absorbed in it that he didn't even notice.

"I face down a card, and the turn is over!" Since he couldn't attack in the first turn, You Xin had to declare the turn over.

You Xin had no other choice. This deck could only do this much at this stage.

"Well! A monster with an attack power of 1200, plus a cover card, it's well done." Teacher Li praised sincerely.

However, when these words reached You Xin's ears, they sounded extremely awkward.

For a card player, such an operation is as embarrassing as praising someone for being able to eat and take a bath by himself.

"My turn, draw a card!"

As Teacher Li drew a card, his turn began.

You Xin was ready for battle. Although Teacher Li was using a practice deck, Teacher Li was still very strong as a duelist. And You Xin was not clear about the composition of the teacher's deck, so he didn't know what tactics the teacher would adopt.

"Students, you must remember that if you cannot deal with the monsters on the opponent's field, you must take a defensive stance and wait quietly for the opportunity to come." Teacher Li started the class again.

Huh—upon hearing this, You Xin immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that Teacher Li has no way to get rid of the monsters on my field now, and I can't help but feel relieved.

But You Xin couldn't help but think, he couldn't even solve the 1200 Silver Fang Wolf, was the teacher stuck? Or was there something wrong with the composition of the deck?

"I stand in defense to summon 'Insect Man'."

A green humanoid creature appeared on Teacher Li's field. The head of this humanoid creature was a huge insect head, and mucus was constantly flowing from the corners of its mouth.

[Insect Man, Defense 700]

This disgusting shape is really nauseating to look at for a long time. Some female students who are afraid of insects have already run to the side and started vomiting.

After seeing this monster, You Xin silently made up his mind that he would rather die outside or jump off the roof than play with the insect tribe.

"Don't look at this monster like this, but there are still many monsters in the insect family that are both beautiful and powerful. Don't generalize!"

Teacher Li quickly explained that he did not want the students to feel disgusted with the insect monsters.

But whether these words are effective or not, I think everyone knows it well.

"Cough cough!"

At this point, Teacher Li didn't say anything more and prepared to continue his teaching.

"While taking a defensive stance, you also have to prepare for your counterattack, so I'm going to activate this card." Listening to Teacher Li continuing to teach, You Xin also collected his thoughts.

"I activate the continuous magic card 'Mortal's Will'." Teacher Li inserted a card into the duel disk.

With the help of the virtual reality system, this card appeared on Teacher Li's field.

"Mortal Will, I didn't expect it to be this card. This card really works wonders in a deck composed of mortal bones." You Xin was secretly surprised, he seemed to understand the teacher's routine.

"The effect of Mortal's Will is: if the card you draw during the Draw Phase is a Normal Monster, you can show that card to your opponent and draw another card." Teacher Li specifically explained the effect of this card.

“This card seems to be useless?”

“Why did the teacher use this card?”

"It's just that I can draw a few cards!"

Listening to the students' discussions and misunderstandings, Teacher Li smiled.

However, You Xin, the opponent, had a serious expression on his face.

"Mortal's Will. Judging from the 'Insect Man' on the teacher's field, it is unlikely that this training deck has 'Soul Dragon'.

That means, we have to keep drawing cards to find a monster that can defeat the Silver Fang Wolf?" You Xin thought to himself.

You Xin's performance was also noticed by Teacher Li.

"Not bad! He knows how to think and is cautious. He is a promising talent." Teacher Li slightly affirmed Xia Youxin in his heart.

"My turn is over!" Mr. Li ended his turn just like that.

"Then it's my turn, draw a card." You Xin drew another card.

"Now that I have roughly understood the teacher's battle plan, the plan to deal with this tactic is: attack with force and defeat Teacher Li before he draws a monster that can defeat me."

If the students heard what You Xin was thinking now, they would be shocked.

The student chosen by the teacher as a duel demonstration never thought about the possibility of defeating the teacher, even if the teacher only used a training deck.

Our You Xin comes on stage with the mentality of defeating the teacher. For You Xin, besides having fun, winning the duel is also very important.

Today, You Xin is going to try to overthrow the powerful.

You Xin glanced at the card he had drawn.

No, this one is good, but it's not what I want, so -

"I open the cover card, the trap card is 'Bottle of Greed', and draw a card from the deck." You Xin drew another card, and his eyes suddenly lit up after seeing the card image clearly.

coming!

"I summon in attack position: 'Queen's Knight'." You Xin immediately inserted the card he had just drawn into the duel disk.

A heroic female knight in red armor, holding a sword in her left hand and a shield in her right hand, stood firmly in front of You Xin.

[Queen Knight, Attack Power 1500]

"It looks like we've drawn good cards." Teacher Li said lightly, but he didn't seem to care much.

"Entering the battle phase, the first thing is the 'Silver Fang Wolf' attacks the 'Insect Man'"

At You Xin's command, the Silver Fang Wolf spread its legs and ran to the front of the Insect Man. In the Insect Man's horrified eyes, the Silver Fang Wolf bit him and then turned into a spot of light and disappeared in the duel arena.

However, since the insect man was in defensive position, Teacher Li was not harmed.

"Next, 'Queen Knight' attacks directly!"

There were no monsters on Teacher Li's field that could be used for defense, so the Queen Knight rushed straight in and Teacher Li was hit hard by the sword.

[Teacher Li, LP4000→2500]

"How amazing! He actually caused 1500 points of damage to the teacher at once."

"Try harder! We are only 500 points away."

"You Xin, when did you become so strong?"

The students watching the game on the sidelines praised You Xin's "wonderful" operation.

You Xin: “…”

"I put a card down, and the round is over!" You Xin ignored his classmates' praise. Unable to continue the operation, he had to end the round.

It was Teacher Li's turn again. You Xin knew that the teacher would definitely take some action in this turn.

You Xin glanced at the "mortal's will" and felt something was wrong.

"You did a good job this round, You Xin, you are a promising talent." Although Teacher Li said this, there was no panic on his face.

"Then next, it's my turn, draw a card!"

Chapter 4: Mantis Strikes Back

After Teacher Li drew out a card, he immediately showed it to You Xin.

"The card I drew was a Normal Monster. Due to the effect of 'Mortal's Will', I draw another card."

Teacher Li drew the card again, glanced at it and immediately showed it to You Xin.

"Draw a card, a monster card."

"Draw a card, a monster card."

You Xin: “…”

Are you going to use a fatal 5-draw combo to kill me instantly?

"Draw a card. Unfortunately, this is not a monster card."

"Phew - it's okay, I only drew three cards, not a big problem." You Xin patted his chest with lingering fear. The feeling of the teacher drawing cards made You Xin couldn't help but think of the guy who was repeatedly whipped by the nameless Pharaoh.

"But, I activate the quick-play magic 'Load' from my hand, shuffle all the cards in my hand back into the deck, and then draw the same number of new hand cards."

No way! You're still here! You Xin was a little furious.

Because Load is a quick-play magic, it is still the card drawing phase after it is activated, so the effect of "Mortal Will" can continue to be activated.

"Draw a card, a monster card!"

"Draw a card, a monster card!"

"Draw a card, but unfortunately, this one is not a monster card."

Finally, after the last two consecutive draws, the effect of 'Mortal's Will' finally ended.

Teacher Li already has ten cards in his hand.

"It's coming!" You Xin said in a low voice.

"I Normal Summon 'Flying Mantis'." Teacher Li drew a card and slapped it on the duel disk.

A large yellow-brown mantis, as tall as a person, appeared in front of Teacher Li, waving its huge forelimbs.

[Flying Mantis, attack power 1500]

"Then I activate the Spell Card 'Double Summon' which grants me the power to Normal Summon a second time."

"I summon another 'Flying Mantis'."

Another identical praying mantis appeared on the field and stood side by side with the first one.

"The attack power of both monsters is 1500. Do you want to use one to kill the Silver Fang Wolf, and then die together with the Queen Knight?" You Xin thought.

But Teacher Li said: I want them all!

"I activate the equipment magic 'Laser Cannon Armor' to equip one of the 'Flying Mantises', increasing its attack and defense by 300 points each."

A laser cannon filled with metallic light was mounted on the forelimb of one of the flying mantises.

[Flying Mantis, attack power 1500→1800, defense power 800→1100]
