Aspiring to become a magnetic field card player!

Then, when You Ling had no means to deal with it, the Death Scythe that had been destroyed and transformed into a spirit form as if liberated, appeared on the field and made a buzzing sound, symbolizing the activation of its terrifying effect.

"When this card is successfully Special Summoned during your opponent's turn...it prevents your opponent from Special Summoning any monsters from their Extra Deck for the entire turn!"

——Just like the name of this card "Death Scythe", a kind of purple-gray mist full of despair filled the entire duel field after it took effect... Especially on the Youling's field, at this moment it was as if it had been inflicted with a series of powerful debuffs and fell into a completely gray state.

"[Ancient Relic: Death Scythe]..." Seeing the gift from the opponent at the very beginning of this round, You Ling couldn't help but grit his teeth, his expression ferocious, "Damn it, he really didn't hold back at all, just stood up and kicked..."

In this world, especially in the duel environment they are in, You Ling can almost conclude that the Death Scythe card's additional blocking effect of such a level can no longer be described as just terrifying... For most duelists, this blockade can be described as "despair".

That's right, "despair"... Especially in this Gyro Academy where most people rely on extra cards. If it were any other Gyro user, after hearing the news that "cannot special summon from the extra deck", they would probably be so angry that they would faint or even collapse - even if it were any other Seven Emperors that You Ling had seen in his memory, if the extra deck was sealed, they would probably end up being slaughtered and completely unable to resist.

You Ling was not unfamiliar with similar tactics. He even remembered that he had done something similar to one of the Seven Emperors of Jiragul a long time ago. This incident was also recorded in the previous duel between You Ling and Mizael.

"This is really a surprising gift..." Under the black fog of despair, You Ling's eyes became sharper and he looked at Jiragu opposite him without any hesitation.

——In fact, before this, the blocking ability of the Color Ruler that Drew took out was probably no worse than that of this Death Scythe, and even stronger... From this point of view, the seemingly honest and simple-minded big guy Jiragu in front of him is indeed the second to last strong man who meets the difficulty expectations and should stand before the final boss, Kamishiro Ryoga, just like the other seven emperors.

And what Jiragu said in the last round was indeed correct. For him, he could win most duels without performing an Xyz Summon... After all, he didn't even need to care what the opponent did. He could just find a way to attack first and activate the Death Scythe effect. The opponent would then just sit there in confusion and be slaughtered.

——As for what to do when attacking second... smart duelists all know that if they lose the dice and have to attack second, then they should leave the duel to fate and deal with the rest later. After all, this kind of card-covering deck that focuses on the red pit is relatively weak when attacking second.

However, even after being blocked by the ancient relic Death Scythe, You Ling's expression did not change for long - as he stretched out his right hand towards the hand card, his face had already calmed down.

——The opponent's red pit deck uses the weakness of attacking later to gain invincibility when attacking first... The difference between the two attacks can even be huge.

For example, in the current situation, after the effect of the Ancient Relic Death Scythe made by the first attack takes effect, coupled with the few remaining cover cards of Jiragul, even the most backward-attack-oriented and explosive Shark Girl's Poseidon Water Scales that Youling has seen so far will find it extremely difficult to deal with... Under the overwhelming interference and blockade, the opponent dragged it into the slow rhythm that the beat deck is best at, and gradually fell into a disadvantage.

——But fortunately, in this duel, You Ling did not use Shark Girl’s deck and did not choose to trust Poseidon Water Scale first.

In other words, whether You Ling was using this deck or another Sea Emperor Water Scale deck, his reliance on extra decks wasn't as high as he'd imagined... Especially when using this deck, You Ling could even boldly ask, "Extra deck? What's that?"

"Alright, [Ancient Relic: Death Scythe], right? Now that your performance is over..."

"Then it's my turn!"

As he spoke, You Ling slammed the red card in his hand onto the duel field. "In the main phase, I will attack and summon this guy - [True Hades·Phoenix Phoenix]!"

That's right, among the two water and fire decks, the deck that You Ling chose for this duel was the [Flame King] that he used in the first round duel with Drube!

And this Flame King deck, even in the hands of You Ling now, is not the complete form of its heyday, nor is it in the terrifying Snake Eyes - but it is still an extremely powerful and extremely scalable perfect deck in the field of pulling and slow attack... It can expand and blast monsters to kill people instantly, and retreat to pull and play slowly, a hero among expansion decks!

With a somewhat childish chirp, the familiar figure of the chick reappeared on the Youling field, accompanied by Youling's smooth and flowing announcement of the effect: "At the moment of a successful Normal Summon, the effect of [Phoenix Phoenix] - add a Fire King Magic Trap from your deck... that is, [Fire King's Sanctuary] to your hand!"

In response to this, after seeing You Ling's next few moves, the opposite Jiragul just frowned and chose to let it go without any chain action - so, the combo of Normal Summoning Chicken and the Flame Kingdom logo on the Sanctuary Island was able to appear again on You Ling's side.

But this time, when the Sanctuary and the Solitary Island were attached to the duel arena, and because of its animation projection effect, the entire duel arena became the Flame King's venue, You Ling did not rush to activate the effect of the Solitary Island - but raised his head and took a special look at the duelist on the opposite side.

——Sure enough, You Ling keenly realized that Jiragu on the opposite side obviously hesitated at this moment.

Volume 1: Chapter 153: Shark Sister is Worried About You

In duels in this world, waiting a few seconds after using each card effect to give the opponent time to react is a very ethical and standard dueling behavior.

You Ling wasn't a duelist who liked to cheat. He had always followed the most basic duel rules since the first day after crossing over, but he had never paid much attention to such things... So, when he deliberately set aside time to pay attention to the opponent, it often meant that You Ling had some ulterior motives.

And it was obvious that when You Ling noticed the hesitation on the opposite side of Jilagu after seeing his island take effect, he immediately made up his mind.

As a card player in two lifetimes, Lao Bi Deng You Ling knew very well that dueling required extreme cunning in many aspects...and the guy opposite was obviously too young and too naive, not experienced enough, and did not know what a poker face was. Just this moment of hesitation could reveal a lot of information to You Ling.

Then, as if to urge the opponent, You Ling put on an impatient look and immediately reached out to the island he had just posted on the field: "Well, if you don't have a chain, I will activate this field card [Flame King's Island...]"

"No...wait!" Sure enough, in the next second, You Ling heard the somewhat panicked voice of Jiragu on the opposite side as expected.

"I'm not completely unprepared... the moment your Field Card [Flame King's Island] is placed on the field!"

"—— Ling.x Yumezaki Rinpa⑸Si⑥⑧Qi's wife opens the backcourt and covers the cards!"

Although his expression did not change, You Ling was actually smiling in his heart - the opponent had indeed been fooled... Or rather, no matter what You Ling did, judging from the opponent's appearance, he probably intended to do so in the first place.

Meanwhile, Jiragul declared, and the card he flipped up from his backfield this time was indeed a Trap Card that matched the area: "I activate a Normal Trap—

]! "

Amidst Jiragu's declaration, the ancient relic card named Sanity depicted countless soulless, grey-toned relic instruments... and at the top of the card, the device slowly descending, as the card's name suggests, was endowing the ancient relics with a [Sanity] they had never had before.

"Using this card's effect, I cannot enter the Battle Phase this turn. In exchange, I Special Summon a monster with Ancient Relic in its name from my Deck to my field!"

As Jiragul spoke, he pulled a cyan Relic Greatsword from his deck, showed it to Youling, and slammed it onto the field. "The monster I choose to Special Summon is this one... [Relic: Raging Sword]!"

As a member of the Ancient Relics, this newly introduced Raging Sword naturally possesses a unique effect similar to the Death Scythe above, triggered by Special Summoning during the opponent's turn: "Immediately afterwards, in a new Chain, activate the effect of [Raging Sword]. When successfully Special Summoned during the opponent's turn, you can select a Magic or Trap card on the opponent's field..."

Jiragu extended his right hand, and pointed the azure blade of the Giant Wrath Sword at the Wandering Spirit Field, the Flame King Field he had just placed but hadn't yet activated. "—That is, the [Flame King's Island] on your field... destroy it!"

——Hearing this scene, Kamishiro Ryoga, who had seen You Ling's duel with Drewbe earlier and knew how crucial Fire King's Island was to the operation of You Ling's deck, couldn't help but stand up and cheer for his teammate, even though he was just watching from the sidelines: "Great, great... That's how we should play!"

"Kiragu! You did a great job... You did a great job!"

"Wow, wow, wow..." Just like the two people opposite who were extremely excited, You Ling's emotions seemed to be quite uncontrollable... In an instant, You Ling's expression became as unpredictable as when he was hit by the death sickle before.

......When he was hit by the death sickle before, his expression couldn't help but become a little ugly, but now he was so happy that he couldn't hold it back, just like a fisherman who caught a big fish and couldn't contain his joy.

You Ling even wanted to reach out and press his cheeks hard - he tried to hold it back... but how could he hold back such a ridiculous thing?!

At this point, You Ling could be sure that the classmate Jiragu opposite him was indeed the same as he looked on the surface, a simple and honest type of duelist, not as perverted as he had imagined... As for the problem with the deck, it was probably just a small problem in the direction of deck selection.

——Anyway, from now on, this sausage-mouthed man is far less insidious and cunning than You Ling.

"Excellent! The effect of [Giant Fury Sword] has passed... But! Yes!"

You Ling raised his right hand. As he did so, a ball of flame suddenly erupted from the remaining continuous magic card in his backfield, colliding with the azure blade of the Great Wrath Sword, protecting his precious field. "[Flame King's Sanctuary], according to its second effect! Once per turn, when a card in your field zone is destroyed by an effect, you can... destroy a Fire monster in your hand or on the field instead!"

As he spoke, You Ling flipped over the crimson Fire monster in his hand, which he had prepared long ago, to confront the giant wrathful sword head-on: "I choose... to use the Fire monster in my hand to replace the destruction of [Flame King Island]!"

The opposing player, Jiragul, clearly hadn't considered this. After seeing Youling's handling of the situation, he stared wide-eyed, a bit flustered, like most card players when they make a mistake. "Wha... what!?"

Realizing that there was a flaw in his operation, and also knowing that the word "destruction" would not cause any burden to the Flame King on Youling's side, but was purely auxiliary, Jiragu could no longer hold back... and the cold sweat on his forehead could not help but pour out!

But it wasn't that he was too naive or not careful enough. It was just that before the duel began, his good brother Ryoga Kamishiro did tell him about the general composition of Youling's Flame King deck, and even explained to Jiragul in detail all the card effects that Youling had used in the previous duel with Drewbe.

But the problem lies precisely in this "all effects used by Youling"... Under Kamiyo Ryoga's instructions, Jiragu did remember the effects of Youling's cards very well, knowing that this Sanctuary was very powerful, with a total of "two" terrifying effects: it could be stuck out of the field when activated, and could only be accelerated to an excessive amount during the opponent's turn.

That's right, neither Kamiyo Ryoga nor Kiragu had ever imagined that the Flame King's Sanctuary in the Spirit Field would be so shameless. In addition to these two positive effects, there is a third hidden ability... An ordinary continuous magic has three positive effects, and each one is more exaggerated than the other!

"Haha, kid... the modern Yu-Gi-Oh!" Seeing his conspiracy succeed, You Ling, who could feel that the situation would tilt towards his side from this moment on, was like a real villain. He wanted to raise his head and laugh three times to express his joy.

"Your [Giant Fury Sword] is indeed very effective... but now, it's going to help me!" You Ling laughed as a dazzling red light suddenly emanated from the Fire monster in his graveyard that had just been destroyed by the Sanctuary effect. "Then, the next chain will activate the effect of [Fire Princess: Fire Phoenix] in my hand, the monster that I just used to replace the destruction!"

"Once per turn, if this card is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard... Special Summon a [Flame King Divine Beast - Roc Phoenix] from your Deck in Defense Position!"

The same phoenix cry and the familiar flames appeared together in the spiritual field, but this time it was not as cute as the little chicken before... The familiar old friend, the Peng Phoenix, returned to the spiritual field!

Under the fierce flames when the Phoenix appeared on the stage, You Ling raised his head slightly, and the smug or grinning expression on his face formed a sharp contrast with the panicked Jiragu opposite him and the gloomy Shark on the stage.

——BEAT? Pull? Red pit slow play... If I remember correctly, these seem to be the strongest areas of the Flame King set in my hand, right?

Raising his head, after the momentum and offense and defense had completely changed, You Ling looked down at the opposite side condescendingly, as if he had already firmly grasped the entire duel in his own hands.

"This time, you shouldn't have to live anymore and still want to start a (two) ③ Suzudera Hisafin three (four) QUN - I activate the effect of my Field Spell [Flame King's Island]!"

After "painting all the Sanctuary fields," You Ling, grinning grimly, expertly executed the next move, "Explode Bird to Find Phoenix": "Destroy the [True Flame King·Phoenix] monster on my field... and add a [True Flame King·Roc Phoenix] from my deck to my hand!"

"Ancient Artifact Fire and Ice, huh? Such a traditional BEAT deck... why don't you show me what the Flame King Clank is..."

"——What do you mean...the King of BEAT!?"

*************

At the same time, when You Ling turned the situation around and began to thoroughly enjoy this duel, Shark Sister - at this moment, she, Yi Wo Ming 鏾〞(?二)⊙?⑦丝虾【was on her way on horseback.

——Well, a modern facility like the Duel Academy obviously doesn’t have such a primitive means of transportation as riding a horse... Now Shark Girl is actually just dragging her body, holding on to the wall and moving towards the duel arena in stops and starts.

The duel and competition on You Ling's side sounded easy, but in fact several hours had already passed - and after several hours of rest and recuperation, the patient Shark Sister on the bed finally felt that her body was gradually getting better, at least she could get out of the bed and move around on her own.

So, Shark Girl, who was the type who couldn't sit still, immediately decided to drag her body, which was not yet fully recovered, to the duel arena to find her good teammate You Ling.

——Although it is a bit difficult for her to go on the duel in her current state, Shark Sister always feels that no matter what, she has to come to this game as a member of the team. Besides... in this world of card king, there are countless idealistic things. Compared with physical reasons, the will of the duelist itself is obviously more critical.

—Things like, “The burning duelist soul is continuously generating duel energy, burning away all the toxins in my blood, and because of the duel energy, I can probably duel normally even in the vacuum of the moon.”… For the characters in this world, these are all basic operations, so just sit down and don't panic.

But after all, there are differences in physical fitness between people. Shark Girl obviously has not reached the level of burning blood toxins. On the way to the duel field, she only took a few quick steps and she couldn't help but start breathing heavily. She needed to hold on to the wall to rest for a while.

While resting, she was not idle either. After she felt a little better, she took out her mobile phone and wanted to take a look at the current situation on the duel field. Unfortunately, things did not go as she wished. Perhaps it was because she was too happy playing with her mobile phone while lying on the bed and forgot to charge it. Not long after leaving the infirmary building, Shark Sister's mobile device automatically turned off due to lack of power, which made Shark Sister confused and in the dark.

So, looking at the phone in her hand with a black screen and no response when the power button was pressed, Kamishiro Rio's face was not good - when the phone still had power, she actually asked someone familiar with her near Youling to help broadcast the duel situation in text... and the current version of Shark Girl is still in the old version of "the effect of the opponent's ancient relic Death Scythe is passed, and Youling looks not good."

As a former partner of the Seven Emperors, Shark Sister certainly knew about Jiragul's deck and the powerful blocking card Death Scythe in his deck - but it was precisely because of this knowledge that she also knew how big a predicament Youling was facing now.

Shark Girl knew very well that the opposite Jiragul was not a simple duelist: the Death Scythe's blockade, the Giant Wrath Sword's flexible destruction, and the extremely difficult Ice and Fire Hands and other red pits... The more she thought about it, the more worried she became about Youling.

As his worry about You Ling grew, his anger towards his foolish brother, Kamishiro Ryoga, also grew in his heart.

Shark Girl gets annoyed whenever she thinks of this guy...and it reached its peak today.

So, this anger, probably after finding someone to vent it on, seemed like some kind of duelist energy was really burning in Shark Girl's body...Kamiyo Rio took two deep breaths and walked towards the duel arena with an angry face.

Volume 1: Chapter 154: Domo, the Seven Emperors Killer

"—Then, immediately upon adding this card to your hand, activate the effect of the monster in your hand... [Holy Flame King: Roc Phoenix]!"

When the Flame King's island effect was resolved, the bird Phoenix Phoenix on the field, which was the target of destruction, was sent to the graveyard - at this moment, the Holy Flame King had also been added to the hand.

As a result, the classic COMBO when the Flame King launched the combo of blowing up the bird and jumping into the Phoenix was able to appear again in the Youling Field.

Then, after another loud phoenix cry, as if experiencing nirvana through the power of fire, the originally honest and cute little chicken Phoenix Phoenix in the Youling Field continued to grow stronger in the flames, and finally turned into a brand new eight-star monster, one of the trump cards of the Flame King deck, the [Holy Flame King], descended on the field.

"Next, the effect of [Holy Flame King·Roc Phoenix] appears. When it is Normal Summoned or Special Summoned successfully, select a Flame King II-Gui Zero ⑸ San Bar Seven ① Delete Monster from your Deck and destroy it!"

You Ling's movements were extremely smooth, without any pause. The moment Dapeng appeared on the scene, he had already pulled out the deck from the duel disk and selected his target of destruction from it.

You Ling's current target of destruction is none other than the incredibly powerful Flame King beast, Qilin. This time, he doesn't even need to destroy the Qilin on the field like he did in his previous duel with Drube... The difference in power between destroying it from the deck and destroying the Qilin's deck from the field is also huge!

"I choose to destroy the monster [Flame King Divine Beast·Qilin] in my deck..." After pulling the target monster from the deck and shaking it towards the opposing Jiragul, You Ling immediately reached out to his next target, "Then the effect of [Flame King Divine Beast·Qilin]!"

"When this card is destroyed by a card effect and sent to the Graveyard, you can select a Flame King monster from your hand or Graveyard and Special Summon it... then destroy a card on the field!"

During this series of overwhelming operations, You Ling's right hand was flying and constantly making moves without stopping. Moreover, while picking up the target monster with the Qilin effect from the graveyard, he also raised his head and looked at the field opposite Jiragu with a deep gaze.

Now, the total number of cards possessed by the burly duelist Kiragu on the field can be said to be quite astonishing - in the front field alone, there are three monsters that cannot be ignored: Flame Hand, Ancient Relic Death Scythe, and Ancient Relic Giant Wrath Sword.

And those five originally threatening face-up cards in hidden state, after Jiragu used three of them, and used the Ancient Relic Movement Mechanism, the blown-up Death Scythe, and the Ancient Relic's Sanity - they were reduced to two hidden face-up cards and one Ancient Relic Monster covered by the Ancient Relic Movement Mechanism.

Moreover, in this situation, You Ling didn't even need to think too much - relying solely on his experience in playing cards as a human in two lifetimes, he had already decided on his target and cast an aggressive gaze towards Jiragu, the ancient relic monster in the front field holding a sharp sword.

——[Ancient Relic·Giant Wrath Sword]!

——You Ling's idea is very simple. When facing the opponent's red pit pulling type card deck, the Ancient Relic Ice and Fire Hand, in front of the effect that the Ancient Relic monsters can be directly transformed into monster special summons after being destroyed, it is definitely not a rational behavior to rashly choose to destroy the covered cards in the backfield.

Not to mention whether your rash destruction of the red pit would blow up those ancient relics, which would actually help the opponent - even if the red pit was really blown up, in Youling's opinion, it is far less advantageous than destroying the opponent's front-field monsters and reducing the opponent's overall card count.

You Ling's tactical goal is to completely target the frontcourt of the opposite Jiragul - since your backcourt is threatening and difficult to deal with, I will just ignore it. I will just tear down your frontcourt and slowly wear down your health until all the monsters in your frontcourt and even your own health are emptied... In this way, no matter what kind of disgusting trap cards there are in the backcourt, they should be opened!

As a veteran duelist with two lives and rich experience in card playing, although he was reluctant to face this kind of perverted red pit deck, from the perspective of the game alone, You Ling actually has quite a lot of experience in confrontation - so he also knows deeply that when using a deck like Flame King that is strong in tug-of-war and has amazing endurance, he only needs to make good use of his own advantages and keep grinding with the opponent and fight slowly.

The key to this game lies in the simple word "card difference". It mainly depends on what method can be used to make the opponent consume more cards, so that the total number of cards on the opponent's side will gradually decrease. After all, most red pit card decks do not have too strong card-earning methods in the system, so they will only play fewer and fewer cards. In the end, most people will be exhausted and lose the duel.

——But Youling's Flame King will not have this problem at all. With his excellent endurance and operating capabilities, the total number of his cards will not be consumed too much... It is even possible that due to the Flame King's excellent system, the number of cards will gradually increase. In the continuous destruction, he can not only complete the accumulated resources, but also pose a huge threat to the opponent.

In this situation, the only thing that can make the opponent's red pit decks suddenly increase the number of cards in their hands is most likely the one he activated in the first round, such as the non-system magic card [Life-threatening Treasure Card]... But in order to obtain this kind of card, one can only rely on the power of the right hand to draw it - You Ling has no way to influence such illusory things, so he doesn't intend to influence it!

"Using the ability of [Qilin], destroy the monster [Ancient Relic: Raging Sword] on your field!"

Whether You Ling's fighting style was right or wrong is another matter. Anyway, judging from the slightly ugly expression on Jiragu's face when he saw the Great Wrath Sword being destroyed, his fighting style would at least make the opponent duelist feel very uncomfortable - and what was even more uncomfortable was that after this effect was processed, in the projection of the duel disk, the flames burning on the Holy Flame King Dapeng Phoenix on You Ling's field seemed to instantly become much faster.

——This is probably due to the effect of the Holy Flame King before, which made it gain half of its attack power after destroying the Flame King beast Qilin... making the already quite good 2700 points of attack power become the current terrifying number of 3900 points.

It wasn't even over yet—in the flames on Youling's right hand side that hadn't been ignited by the Qilin's effect, in addition to its destructive power, the Nirvana Fire, representing the Flame King's ability to recover, also rose.

Then, on the right side of Youling, because of the effect of Qilin, the flaming beauty, [Flame Princess·Fire Phoenix] who blocked the blade of the Jiragul's Wrathful Sword and went into the graveyard as a replacement for destruction material, was resurrected!

Then, You Ling raised his right arm and waved the Pretty Girl card in the air. "Next, at the moment of the successful Special Summon, activate the effect of the monster [Flame Princess: Fire Phoenix] on the field!"

That's right, as a card that appeared after Yu-Gi-Oh entered the 2.0 era, just like the Flame King card shown by each of the previous Youlings, the Flame King Princess also has two or more effects that can be activated in the same turn: "The effect of [Flame King Princess] destroys the Flame King monster [Flame King Beast Ganesh] in my hand and field... and adds a different Flame King monster from my deck to my hand!"

Another heat wave of destruction swept through. You Ling reached out and showed the black Flame King Warrior monster he had obtained from the deck. "I'm adding [Flame King Beast Hanuman] to my hand!"

In this way, Hanuman and Ganesh, the two heroes of the Fire King deck, are now complete in Youling's hand and graveyard... The former is called the Elephant by duelists and has the ability to counter monster effects; the latter does not have a well-known nickname because it is not used very often, but it also has a powerful ability to counter magic traps corresponding to the Elephant.

At the same time, they also seemed to have corresponding first effects of opposite types. At this moment, You Ling waved his hand, and the first thing that came to mind was the elephant, which was the former. "After that, in the new chain, activate the first effect of the monster [Flame King Beast·Ganesh] in my graveyard!"

"When this card is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard, negate the effect of a Flame King monster in the Graveyard—this [True Flame King Phoenix]—and Special Summon it!"

This time, probably because the monsters resurrected by the elephant would lose their effects and therefore have no souls, the bird did not make its representative bird call during this appearance - but in fact, Youling did not intend to keep it resurrected for long.
