There is also his cultivation technique [Condensing Stars and Grasping the Moon Method]. Since he didn't find a good cultivation technique at the auction, he simply collected the materials [Moon Stone] and [Star Stone] and upgraded it to 3 stars.

The Star-Concentrating Moon-Grabbing Technique therefore gained two new skills, and was enhanced to the limit, with an additional description saying "This card has reached its limit and no further skills can be added."

Star Performance: Under the shining stars, the premonition of battle is enhanced.

Shuiyue: Under the moonlight, you will leave behind clones when you move.

He has already experimented with it. Star Performance is simply danger perception, and it can be combined with his skill card [Danger Perception].

Shuiyue is an afterimage. Whenever Lu Yan runs, he will leave a very real shadow every 2 seconds.

The shadow lasts for 10 seconds, after which it will slowly dissipate, similar to when he uses Moonlight Guardian, and can be used to confuse the enemy.

I got the Blood of the Frost Giant on the last day, and I haven't used it to evolve it with a potion yet.

He has not replaced the extra skill cards or summoning cards. The current skill combination is good and there is no need to replace them. The main reason is that he has not seen better cards.

When it was time to return to Hujiang City, Jiang Jiu and Li Xisheng met him again in the taxi. The petite store manager took out two cards and handed them to Lu Yan:

"Here, there's the card Xiong Yue promised to give you. As for Xi Sheng, there's none left. You didn't contribute much."

"I know."

Li Xisheng had no objection. Lu Yan picked up the cards given by the 6-star card master and browsed their information.

One card features a fruit with a smiling face, and judging by the background it appears to be hanging on a branch.

The other card shows a blurry figure struggling, with a large amount of black air coming out of its body.

Chapter 83: A gentleman or a beast in human clothing?

After putting away the two extremely important cards, the joy on Lu Yan's face became even more prominent, and it was obvious that he had gained a lot.

Not only him, but other card masters participating in the auction on the street also had similar expressions.

The auction in Tianwei City gathers some cards that are difficult to ship, allowing card masters to trade with each other and purchase the cards they need. It can also be regarded as a kind of product circulation between different regions.

Arriving at the high-speed rail station, the noise caught the attention of three people getting off the train. Someone grabbed the railing and shouted loudly, tears in his eyes:

"Wait, I'm almost reaching the contribution point required to stay in Tianwei City. Give me one more day!"

"Given the time we've given you, what are we going to do? Stop talking. Hurry and get into the high-speed rail station and go back to your hometown. Come back and apply for residency next time."

The guard who was pulling his legs said impatiently, and simply cut off the railing he was holding and threw him directly into the high-speed rail station.

The competition is fierce.

He shook his head and walked into the high-speed rail station with the two girls. The Li family came to greet Jiang Jiu again.

The journey back to Hujiang City by train was safe and smooth without any accidents.

After getting off the car, Lu Yan stretched his arms and twisted his neck to look at the Wang family team on the side. Just as he was about to look away, the noise coming from there made him pay attention again.

"Brother Bai Tao!"

"Brother Bai Tao! You're back!"

……

From the Wang family's card division came a joyful shout, making people feel like they were bathed in spring breeze. A magnetic male voice sounded from the other side:

"Yeah, I heard you were coming back today, so I came here to pick you up. Hope everything is alright? It's said that a [Card Domain Fusion] occurred in Tianwei City."

The speaker was a very sunny and handsome young man. His hair was a dazzling golden color, which should be caused by his cultivation. He had a hearty smile on his face, and the glasses on his face added a touch of gentleness.

Wang Baitao.

With his eyebrows lowered, Lu Yan withdrew his gaze and followed Jiang Jiu away, with murderous intent in his heart.

He asked Lamia to collect the public information of Wang family members, and also asked Jiang Jiu to help him find the secrets. He was aware of the existence of most of the card masters in the Wang family.

Wang Baitao, a 3-star card master, the most popular card master of the Wang family, the strongest of the younger generation, successfully entered the Card Master Academy by relying on some connections he once had with the Wang family and his own talent.

Despise the enemy strategically and take the enemy seriously tactically. Lu Yan is very realistic. The information he provides about Wang Baitao is a bit exaggerated, but most of it is true.

Wang Baitao definitely relied on his own strength, luck and talent to enter the Card Master Academy. He is a very difficult guy.

According to the information released by the academy, all the cards in his hand are above Silver 2 stars, and there are probably some hidden cards that others don’t know about.

"He may have come back this time to deal with me. It's not just about the gold-level card, but I am a threat to the Wang family to a certain extent."

Lu Yan knew very well that with Jiang Jiu watching outside, no one would act rashly. He himself would not do anything, and he was not qualified to go out of town frequently.

The Wang family would either deal with him in the card area, or deliberately stir up some private affairs, and then use the card master's methods to deal with and resolve them privately.

Although they have already become a high-tech society, the countries in the Card Master World have not lost a certain ** for various reasons.

That is the Duel

A duel was a formal, prearranged fight between two persons with deadly weapons in the presence of witnesses, usually the result of one person injuring or insulting the other.

The authorities agree that duels can be carried out openly. As long as they are registered with the Security Bureau and both parties sign a waiver, they can duel in the ring or card area.

There are many duel modes. In history, there have been situations where one fights against many, and many fight against many. The duel is not over until one or more parties surrender or die.

Originally, they had to worry about the relationship between Jiang Jiu and Lu Yan, worried that Jiang Jiu would blame them for Lu Yan's death, but things were different as soon as Wang Baitao came back.

As an academic card master, it is possible for him to recognize a strong man as his teacher, so that he has the capital to fight against Jiang Jiu.

Wang Baitao is also the strongest among his peers. Once the two sides come into conflict, he can take the opportunity to challenge them to a duel and fight a life-and-death battle.

Lu Yan could naturally refuse to duel, but the question is, why didn't he agree?

"Hmph, come on if you dare. I'll kill anyone who comes. Speaking of which, are you being too dramatic? Maybe they really just have something else to do."

He consoled himself with this, but Murphy's Law (the more you fear something will go wrong, the more likely it is to go wrong) came true. Just after taking a few steps, Wang Baitao, who was talking to his brothers, turned around and called out to Lu Yan:

"Wait, Mr. Lu Yan."

As expected, he was afraid of whatever might come his way.

Lu Yan curled his lips, while Jiang Jiu looked like he was watching the fun, pulling Li Xisheng back to leave some space for the two of them.

Wang Baitao bowed respectfully to Jiang Jiu and stood in front of Lu Yan, maintaining a safe social distance. His expression and tone were full of sincerity and apology:

"I'm very sorry for what happened to the Lu family and you. If possible, can you reconcile with us now?"

At this moment? Are you kidding?

"of course can."

What Lu Yan was thinking was completely different from what he said. He maintained the same smile as Wang Baitao, but because of his melancholy temperament and gloomy appearance, people felt that he had some bad intentions, and his tone sounded sarcastic.

Well, actually I’m just being sarcastic:

"Have the Wang family return our Lu family's heirloom card, the Pure Yang Sword, to me. It's that simple. Just let bygones be bygones. It's easy, right? I don't even need the inheritance left by the Lu family."

Wang Baitao still maintained his upright appearance and actually said in public:

"Alright, I'll go talk to the elders at home and find out who took the Pure Yang Sword. Not only that, I'll also punish those who targeted you!"

The corners of his eyes twitched. Lu Yan suppressed the doubts in his heart and pretended to be nice to Wang Baitao who was holding him. It felt like every day was a year.

When he saw the surprised and astonished eyes of the Wang family members behind him, he was basically certain that the Wang family card masters who went to Tianwei City were unaware of such a drama.

Is he really a good person?

The problem is that birds of a feather flock together. Lu Yan was once a member of the Lu family, and he knew very well the moral character of the dandy and highly regarded genius.

Wang Baitao may be a good person, but it is unlikely that Wang Baitao is a good person.

After dealing with this guy with a smile on his face, Lu Yan turned and left the high-speed rail station. After making sure that the guy behind him couldn't hear him, he turned around and asked the other two:

"Sister, what's going on with Xisheng? Could he really be a gentleman?"

Chapter 84 Emotion, rationality, and most importantly, strength.

As the three of them walked and talked, Li Xisheng glanced back and said, "Wang Baitao...I don't know much about him. He and my eldest brother are of the same generation. He has a good reputation in the circle of rich kids. I heard that he is also doing well in the Card Master Academy."

"But my eldest brother warned us younger generations to be careful not to be deceived by him. He said that Wang Baitao looked well-dressed, but was actually a beast in human clothing."

"As for whether it's true or not, I'm not too sure. After all, my eldest brother isn't a good person either. He's exactly the same type of person as the Wang Baitao he's talking about."

Li Xisheng provided his own opinions and evidence, while Jiang Jiu rummaged through his phone and handed his small crystal screen to Lu Yan:

"Well, the information I've gathered has nothing to do with Wang Baitao's personality. It's all about what he did, and the card master behind him."

"What is certain is that he came back this time to resolve the issue concerning you. As for whether he wants to resolve the issue or the person who caused the issue, that is, you, it depends not only on what he thinks, but also on what you think."

Taking the phone, Lu Yan looked through Wang Baitao's resume and frowned unconsciously.

Just as Lu Yan thought, Wang Baitao found a backup in the Card Master Academy, who was also a six-star card master named Zhou Hao.

"Sister, how does this Zhou Hao compare to you?"

"Our strengths are similar. The old man is mainly protecting his own people. If you kill Wang Baitao, he might come looking for me. I can handle him."

"By the way, don't be afraid of getting into trouble for me. Zhou Hao is a thief. He's done a lot of wicked things. I've been wanting to take action for a long time."

The master has done a lot of immoral things, so the disciple can't still be a good person, right?

His resume showed that he had a very good reputation in school and was a popular guy. He was also on good terms with a large group of men and women, including both rich kids and common talent specially recruited by the college teachers.

After completing the task assigned by the academy, Wang Baitao received unanimous praise from the task issuers, who all said that he was a true gentleman and a good man, and almost called him a saint.

There are also negative reviews, saying that he is a hypocrite and is generous with other people's money. But overall, it doesn't look like the good reviews are faked by internet trolls. He really is that kind of person.

"...Isn't the Wang family trying to replace the leader and then whitewash the entire family?"

In addition to the possibility that it was all Wang Baitao's disguise, Lu Yan thought of another possibility, that is, in previous entertainment works and in reality, some underworld groups whitewashed themselves into companies.

Choose a truly glorious and upright person to take charge, and make the methods and means of doing things more moderate.

The original people in charge and the guys who did the dirty work died in the revenge of the Avengers or in the infighting among their own people.

Next, the many Avengers who had their entire families wiped out and their property looted, including [Lv Yan], will become the ones who are at a disadvantage, and the Security Bureau may even turn around and deal with the Avengers.

This kind of whitewashing method must exist in the world of card masters, and it requires strong enough courage. If this is really the case, then he must be careful and not step into the trap.

Fortunately, Lu Yan is not a good person. Even if he becomes the wrong party, he can continue to try to make the Wang family fall apart. However, if the Wang family really wants to whitewash itself successfully, his plan will definitely be hindered.

"Hey, what are you thinking about? I'm home."

Jiang Jiu woke up Lu Yan who was thinking. He sat on the chair and continued to ponder, telling his idea to the store manager and the eldest lady.

"It's possible, but it requires the family leader and the clan leader to have enough courage to push this matter forward."

Li Xisheng admitted that whitewashing was possible, as long as the "victims" were dealt with in advance and most of them disappeared, the Wang family could fully pay a small part of the compensation.
