In the next second, the projection equipment on the duel field began to faithfully carry out John's operation - the cute elf representing the red jade and the roaring tiger representing the topaz, their figures appeared on the field for a moment, and then turned into two gems, one red and one yellow, and stuck to John's backcourt.

Seeing this, You Ling found that the situation seemed a little wrong, and was even completely different from what he had imagined. He couldn't help but frowned... There was obvious confusion in his eyes.

John on the opposite side was probably immersed in the duel, so he didn't notice You Ling's reaction - or rather, his attention was completely focused elsewhere.

John on the opposite side and the conscious gem beasts on his field looked at each other for a few seconds, then nodded to each other, as if they had made up their minds to take revenge on the great devil You Ling.

"...Then I cover two backfield cards, and that's how the round ends!"

──At this point, the situation on the duel field has become extremely clear... John on the opposite side did not take the next step, nor did he summon the Ultimate Gem God as You Ling imagined. Instead, he created a simple scene like this: there were only two monsters, Rainbow Dragon and Pegasus, in the front field, and five magic traps in the back field, and ended the round.

But the You Ling on the opposite side found this situation extremely strange, and his brows became more and more furrowed... because he was really confused as to why John on the opposite side did not take out the other Rainbow Dragon in the deck to play.

Somehow, You Ling seemed to realize that something was wrong. Looking at the resurrected Rainbow Dragon on the opposite side of John's field, he felt that he had forgotten something... Then in the next second, as if he remembered something, You Ling's eyes suddenly condensed, and his expression followed by sudden enlightenment.

He discovered the blind spot of the problem... The monster named [Ultra Gemmon] on the opposite side of John is likely to be the only one in the entire deck!

As soon as this idea popped up in his mind, You Ling immediately understood everything, and the more he thought about it, the more right it seemed.

He couldn't help but open his mouth subconsciously and asked John across from him, "So, you only have one [Rainbow Dragon] in the entire deck?"

"Isn't that nonsense?" John blinked, as if he had just heard something completely counterintuitive from Youling. "Such a powerful card, if there are multiples, that would be a disaster... Besides, it wouldn't even be worthy of being called [Ultimate Gem Beast], would it?"

Although his words were denied, You Ling's eyes grew brighter and brighter - he realized that he had made a mistake in thinking that only OCG duelists would make.

——That's right, anime duelists like John and his friends, although they have the abilities that anime characters should have, those magical abilities and "bonds with the deck", they often build their decks in a weird way, but they can always use weird cards in weird places... and at the same time, they also have to abide by the shackles that should exist in anime duels!

──That is, no matter what time, they must conform to the common sense of this anime worldview... and conform to the settings of their own decks!

......To put it simply, the physical limit is 1!

Seeing this, You Ling's eyes lit up. He, who was waiting to die, suddenly came back to life and stood up immediately.

Volume 1: Chapter 183: The Same Type of Stand

In the setting of the anime, or in the worldview that You Ling is currently in, cards with names like [Ultimate Gem God] and [Ultimate Gem Beast] are obviously extremely precious and unique treasure-level cards... Then, based on this premise, regardless of the number of lower-level Gem Beast monsters, there must be only one ace card of the Rainbow Dragon level in the entire world!

Otherwise, in the processing of the Golden Jade Strip effect that John just shot, he should have taken out the Ultimate Jade Beast Rainbow Dragon, which has a better card effect and can be further developed!

──After figuring out the problem that had been bothering him, You Ling raised his head and looked at John opposite him. He felt his mind become clear and he understood everything...Haha, I thought it was some amazing opponent or a terrifying modern deck, but it turned out to be a wheelchair person who was physically restricted by the unknown banned card list!

At this point, You Ling felt relieved. After he had made up his mind, he became more resolute in his actions.

As he drew his cards during his own turn, his eyes swept across John's scene opposite him—two Gemmon monsters in the front field, and the back field was packed to the brim. Even John's starting five cards were emptied out in order to build a defense comparable to a city wall to withstand the Wandering Spirit's violent attack.

Of course, the situation on You Ling's side doesn't seem to be much better - even the powerful mainstream deck of Flame King in his hand is still slightly different from a real "opponent's turn deployment deck"... In order to play this kind of opponent's turn deployment COMBO, a huge amount of cards need to be consumed.

──The Qilin itself, the cost of the Qilin's explosion, and the Holy Flame King's jump, all took out three cards in one breath, so that he had more cards in his hand, with a full six cards in the back hand, but now he only had three cards left.

But this was still fundamentally different from John across from him... The biggest difference was—

"Even if the cards in your hand are consumed, the monsters they transform into... can still be used directly!"

"After entering our main phase, the first action..." As he said this, You Ling raised his right hand without mercy, as if he was going to pull out a big knife when they met.

In fact, regarding John's Gem Beast deck on the opposite side, since it is a non-mainstream deck after all, You Ling didn't know much about it when he was a card player in his previous life... But You Ling only needs to understand the characteristics and playing style of his own deck, and understand the Flame King in his hand!

He only knew that at this time, if he didn't know what the opponent would do, he would attack madly first, using his unparalleled destructive power and endurance to drag the opponent into his own rhythm!

At this point, You Ling raised his hand and pointed at the two eight-star monsters on his field - the Holy Flame King and the Flame King Divine Beast, two Peng Phoenixes with different card names... With just a glance, he made these two monsters spread their wings, soar into the sky, and fly in an overlapping manner into the Xyz vortex that appeared at some point above the duel field.

"I'm using my two level 8 monsters, [Holy Flame King - Roc Phoenix] and [Flame King Divine Beast - Roc Phoenix], as Xyz Materials... to build a stacking network!"

"Extreme Summon, Rank 8 - [Flame God Roc Phoenix - Eternal Flame]!"

——So, under You Ling's command, he watched as the two eight-star beasts that were left after the other side's turn unfolded transformed into Yongyan, who had appeared many times before, with blazing colorful flames all over his body and descending on the duel field... And for an ace monster of this level, the projection equipment of the duel disk would naturally give it enough respect. Once it appeared on the stage, the temperature of the entire duel field seemed to rise several levels.

Immediately after, as the colorful Phoenix Holy Beast landed, You Ling activated its effect without hesitation: "The effect of [Roc Phoenix Eternal Flame], when this card is successfully Special Summoned...Return a monster other than this card on the field..."

“—Destroy everything!”

That's right, destroy all monsters first when appearing, and then activate its activation effect to remove excess materials and clear the magic trap... This combination of destruction is exactly what You Ling wants - while performing this operation, You Ling raised his head and looked at John opposite with sharp eyes.

──What would you do under this level of oppression, John?

But it was obvious that John on the opposite side would not let the effect of this level of trump card pass so easily.

John showed great respect for this - he just raised his head and looked at You Ling, then stretched out his right hand without hesitation and decisively opened one of his backcourts.

"Then, I'll chain the effect of your Xyz monster, [Roc Phoenix Eternal Flame], open the backfield, and counter the trap—[Gem's Miracle]!"

Obviously, there is no such terrifying card as [Red Restart] in this world. The three-speed counterattack trap card, when there is no card covered on the Youling field, once it is activated, it is equivalent to a direct success... Therefore, John did not wait for the Youling to respond, but handled it according to the effect and picked up the cost on his field!

"According to this card's effect - negate the activation of your opponent's Magic or Trap Monster and destroy it. Then, destroy a Gem Beast card from your side of the field and send it to the Graveyard!"

This time, the situation was the opposite of when You Ling was controlling the Flame King and sending threatening flames of anger towards John. This time, it was the turn of the [Gemmon] monster on John's field. A dazzling light flashed across its body, and then the light was reflected on the ace monster Phoenix Yongyan on You Ling's field, causing the divine bird bathed in flames to let out a painful roar, and was completely invalidated and destroyed by the incomparable power of the counterattack trap.

However, after seeing his ace monster being dealt with so easily, You Ling's expression did not change at all, as if everything was under control - then, when the opposing Gemmon turned into a crystal and was about to be resurrected as a Magic Continuous Spell Card and returned to the field, a raging flame also ignited the place where You Ling's Phoenix Eternal Flame was destroyed.

"[Ultimate Gemmon: Rainbow Dragon]'s effect! When this card is destroyed in the Monster Zone, it can be transformed into a Continuous Spell Card—placed in our backfield..."

"Effect of [Roc Phoenix: Eternal Flame]! When this card with Xyz Materials is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard, you can revive other Flame King monsters in your Graveyard equal to the number of Xyz Materials..."

The two voices rang out almost at the same time—meaning that their respective monsters with revival effects had returned to the field from the graveyard in different forms.

Seeing this, both John on the opposite side and You Ling on this side were stunned at the same time - at this moment, everyone felt a strange sense of correspondence... The Gem Beast that turned into a gem after being destroyed and returned to the field, and the Flame King who was able to return to Nirvana after being destroyed, were so similar to some extent.

"What a coincidence... It seems he is the same type of substitute as me." But seeing this, You Ling was the first to raise his head and said to John opposite him.

"But if you ask me, your Gemmon can only transform into a Gemmon and revive in the Magic Trap Zone. What it can do outside of its turn is minimal... But my Flame King can actually revive and return to the field as a monster!"

Then, amid You Ling's loud shout, two pillars of flame, representing nirvana, appeared on his field one after another. "According to the effect of [Roc Phoenix Eternal Flame], it has two gyroscope materials when it is destroyed... So, the two monsters that were just sent to the graveyard, [Holy Flame King] and [Flame King Divine Beast], the two Roc Phoenix, will be Special Summoned from our graveyard back to the field!"

After this appearance, Holy Flame King Roc Phoenix returned to the field after a turn, and naturally it can activate its summoning effect again: "Immediately afterwards, the effect of [Holy Flame King Roc Phoenix], if the summon is successfully Special Summoned, you can select a Fire monster in your deck and destroy it and send it to the Graveyard!"

After taking a quick look at the current situation, both for the sake of prudence and because he wanted to quickly pile up more Flame King card names in the graveyard... the protagonist simply stretched out his right hand, and using the method he had learned from Marufuji Ryo, he suddenly spread out the deck in mid-air and selected his target from it.

"I destroy a [Fire Princess: Fire Phoenix] from my deck and send it to the graveyard, triggering its effect..."

"Descend! Another [Flame King Divine Beast - Roc Phoenix]!"

Although it did not achieve the best situation that You Ling had imagined, as a result, he once again had three huge monsters burning with blazing flames on the field - except for the newly appeared Dapeng Phoenix in defense position, the other three monsters, whether it was Qilin, Holy Flame King, or Flame King Divine Beast, all had 2000+ attack power and were extremely oppressive.

Looking at the three monsters on the duel field, even John couldn't help scratching his head, a thin layer of sweat appearing on his forehead. "To think they could create such a powerful scene... Haha, it seems like my counterattack trap had no effect at all."

Looking at You Ling's expression across from him, and thinking about what he'd just said, John couldn't help but nod. This world probably also had comics like xx's bizarre adventure, and having read them, John certainly understood what You Ling was talking about. "Being able to resurrect in a magic trap zone, and also directly on the field... You're right, it's the same type of Stand as mine."

"But like I just said, even if it's the same stand, there is a certain gap in speed and strength, John..." You Ling responded while looking up with a sinister smile.

——He glanced at his hand, looking at several of the Magic and Trap Cards, and instantly decided to hold his ground... Because at this time, John already had three Gem Beast Cards in the backfield, which gave his Field Card [Rainbow Ancient City] the powerful ability to negate and destroy the effects of other Magic and Trap Cards once per turn.

──But even so, it can only negate Spell and Trap Cards... It cannot cause any interference to the monsters themselves or the battle phase for the time being!

"After destroying the [Flame King's Concubine] in the Flame King's deck, the [Holy Flame King's] attack power will increase by half... bringing it to 3100 points!" You Ling immediately extended his right hand, commanding the Flame King army on his field to fiercely suppress John across the way. "Next, I will enter the battle phase!"

──The Eternal Flame of the Phoenix just now can be regarded as You Ling’s first test. It was already quite profitable to trick him into a trap... and after this first test, it was followed by the second test with these extremely terrifying Flame King monsters!

This is the terrifying part of the Youling tactics, no matter whether it is the first test mentioned above, or this second test - once the opponent cannot get through it, it will be a fatal attack... If you can get through it, it is called a test, if you can't, it is a murder!

"First, [Holy Flame King·Roc Phoenix], attack the monster [Gem Beast·Sapphire Pegasus] on your field!" You Ling roared, ordering his Flame King monsters to attack John... Even though he had been hit by a very speechless water shield when facing Kiragu before, he would not become timid because of that trap - in You Ling's opinion, no matter what, he still had to fight when it was time!

This time, John probably didn't have such an outrageous resistance as the water shield. The Holy Flame King's wrathful flames hit the Jade Pegasus in front of him solidly, destroying it directly - even causing further damage, and the remaining flames hit him, the duelist.

But seeing this scene, John did not show any fear or nervousness - on the contrary, he looked up, his bright eyes full of joy.

"Then, at the moment the battle is complete, the effect of [Rainbow Ancient City] will be activated. When there are two Gem Beasts in our magic trap zone, the damage dealt in one battle will be halved... [Unrelated sentence fragment:] ...

"Next, if a [Gemmon] monster on my side of the field is destroyed by battle... open my backfield and face it!"

"Normal Trap Card—[Ultimate Gem Formation], activate its effect!"

Volume 1: Chapter 184 The Ultimate Jade God!

"If a [Gemmon] monster on my side of the field is destroyed by my opponent's battle, activate the effect of the Normal Trap Card [Ultra-Gem Formation]...!"

"From your hand, deck, and face-up cards on the field, send one of each of the seven types of [Gem Beast] cards to the Graveyard..."

"——Thus, in the Extra Deck, I Special Summoned a [Ultimate Gem God] monster as a Fusion Summon!!!"

At this moment in the duel arena, the Holy Flame King's attack had just shattered the Jade Pegasus on John's field, and at the same time, it transformed the extra damage into flames, sweeping further towards the duelist himself... But at the same time, a defensive red light flashed from John's card of Rainbow Ancient Wings, directly reducing the health damage in half.

Then, as John finished speaking, the Jade Pegasus on his field that had been destroyed by the Wandering Spirit transformed into a gem and was attached to his backfield - and the trap card of the Ultimate Gem Formation was already emitting a dazzling rainbow light... Then, the seven colors of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple flew out one by one from John's hand, field, and deck, and finally landed on the field one after another and gathered into one.

And when these streams of light stopped flying and gathered around John, everyone could see that at this moment there were indeed seven gems of different colors around him, and these gems were surrounding the duelist John just as depicted on the Ultimate Gem Array card.

"I place the following seven [Gemmon] monsters from my deck and the field: [Ruby Beast], [Emerald Turtle], [Amethyst Cat], [Cobalt Eagle], [Topaz Tiger], [Amber Mammoth], [Sapphire Pegasus]..."

"Send all seven of these monsters to the Graveyard—Fusion Summon... [Ultimate Gem God] monsters!"

Looking at classmate John, who was enveloped in the seven rays of light and looked like a god descending from heaven, You Ling's expression had become extremely ugly, and even his breathing became a little unstable.

You Ling's frown at this moment could only be described as gloomy, clearly demonstrating his inner speechlessness. In this situation, his entire expression and speechlessness could be summed up in one sentence: MMP, why the hell did I fall for the attack again!?

But soon, You Ling quickly denied his wrong idea - in fact, the [Ultimate Gem Formation] that John activated on the field did not seem to be a normal attack pit... That's right, this [Ultimate Gem Formation] was obviously the kind that was quite weak in the future Yu-Gi-Oh Duel that You Ling was familiar with, and most people would not even look at it or invest in it. It was a [Counterattack after battle destruction] card that most deck owners had.

The biggest problem actually lies in the three words "family cards" - in You Ling's cognition, with his duel experience and judgment, he can probably see that the Jade Beast deck is a very pure and self-deprecating deck, and due to tactical reasons, there are basically not enough card slots... After all, no matter what, if this deck wants to operate normally, according to John's style of play, all seven Jade Beast bodies must be in the deck, and the strength of each Jade Beast body is extremely touching, almost equivalent to forcibly binding several junk pieces in the deck.

——In this case, due to the card position problem and also to ensure the purity of his Jewel Beast's main system... John on the opposite side is likely to be completely unable to put general cards such as attack and propaganda pits in his deck, and cannot bring any non-system cards that are not related to his own tactics.

Therefore, John would never be able to create such a perverted red pit scene like the Barian Seventh Emperor Jiragul, whom You Ling had dueled before - after all, the deck used by Jiragul, the ancient relic ice and fire hand, is extremely autistic, and there are not many native monsters that can be used in the entire deck... Therefore, the card slots are also very sufficient. The victory or defeat of a duel does not even depend on how many native monsters he draws, but on how many red pits he draws.

For a deck like this that has plenty of card slots and can fit in a bunch of random stuff, it's normal to bring anything... At that time, the water shield in Wandering Psychic was indeed reasonable.

──So, if John's deck, which is purely for the benefit of Gemmon and is almost equivalent to autistic development, were to put something like Water Shield, it would not be very reasonable... This is why, even though You Ling had clearly thought of this problem and recalled the pain of the previous duel with Jiragul, he still resolutely attacked.

It's a pity that You Ling obviously didn't realize that the game in his mind was completely useless to John, and the opponent John was actually more skilled... His Jewel Beast deck was indeed autistic - but the fundamental reason for its autism was because there were enough magic traps in its family. Its deck alone contained a variety of cards that could deal with extremely rich scenarios, and each one was stronger than the other!

──To sum up, all these problems actually stem from the fact that You Ling doesn't know enough about the opponent's deck, and he doesn't really know what kind of card effects are in the Gem Beast deck... After all, this kind of non-mainstream deck is definitely completely unknown to You Ling, who was a pure mainstream dog active in the OCG environment in his previous life. It's good enough that he can know the card pictures.

However, the most dangerous situation has already occurred. It is too late to say anything, and it is not realistic to regret. After all, You Ling is unlikely to be timid and not dare to attack, letting John gain this round in vain... At this time, You Ling could only watch with extremely complicated feelings as the seven gem beasts on John's field merged into one, turning into a huge rainbow, passing over the duel field.

Seeing this, You Ling couldn't help but recall once again the scene of John and Judai's first duel when he was watching the original GX anime in his previous life. It was just that time, John fooled everyone. Even after taking out seven gems and even shouting out the summoning lines, there was no Ultimate Gem God in his deck.

——But this time, in this world, John has clearly been strengthened and can even use cards like Ultra Gemmon... He will definitely not let that happen again.

So, John's field was just like what was depicted in this Ultimate Gem Formation card. There were seven gems of different colors, and in the very center of them... the shadow of the [Ultimate Gem God] gradually appeared!

"Fusion Summon—LV12…!"

"When the seven gems gather, the light connecting the worlds will revive and descend here! Descend... [Ultimate Gem God: Rainbow Bridge Dragon]!"

 Image of the Floating Bajue and the Balinsi Ball Witch: "Rainbow Bridge Dragon", Location: "Images/1730401639-100405619-112293684.jpg"

[Ultimate Gem God·Rainbow Bridge Dragon lv12 Light Attribute/Dragon ATK/4000]

Amidst John's declaration and deafening roar, a gorgeous pure white dragon with huge wings flapping descended from the sky. Its silhouette when landing was somewhat similar to the rainbow dragon shadow in the [Ultimate Gem Formation] card just now... But it was obvious that this monster was the evolved form of the [Ultimate Gem God·Rainbow Dragon] in You Ling's memory. Its appearance, including its wings and body, had more decorations. Both its momentum and the monster itself were more gorgeous and more deterrent.

The arrival of such a holy and beautiful monster naturally made every duelist present fall in love with its beauty... In this world, summoning such a classic ace with a level of 12 and an attack power of 4000 points is so attractive to most duelists.

——And below where the giant dragon was circling, standing in the colorful sunlight, John, its controller, looked at everyone who was fascinated by his trump card, the Ultimate Gem God, and naturally felt a sense of secret joy... He even grinned, unable to suppress the corners of his mouth that curled up.

After all, You Ling actually knew before that, because John and Judai met earlier in this world and the world line had changed, the chemical reaction between the two made their personalities more cheerful and more in line with their current age groups than in the original work, and even had some conspicuous attributes that were very suitable for their age... So, in John's view, this scene of showing off his trump card and shocking the people around him was of course very exciting to him.

And in this situation, what could be more satisfying...that is, John looked up with satisfaction and looked at You Ling opposite him, then turned his head and looked at the people sitting in the audience behind him. Instead of cheering for his partner, they looked at You Cheng Judai in the duel field with envy.

──That’s right, at a time like this, the only thing that feels better than showing off is showing off in front of your good brothers... letting You Ling and Judai see how cool you are.

At this moment, surrounded by the exclamations of the crowd, John, standing under the Rainbow Bridge Dragon, felt that his life was worth it. Looking at the expressions of You Ling and Judai, he felt that even if he lost this duel, it would not be a loss at all.

So, he raised his head contentedly the next second, looked at You Ling opposite him and laughed: "Hahaha, how is it? You Ling..."

"In front of my 4000-attack ace monster, Rainbow Bridge Dragon... even if it's your ace, the Great Roc Phoenix Eternal Flame, what can it do?"

"What's more, you don't have that Eternal Flame on the field right now, only this degraded version of the Holy Flame King... How do you feel now under the suppression of my 4000 attack points? How do you feel?!"

Perhaps because the three of them had a really good relationship and treated each other as good brothers, John showed no mercy while taking advantage of the opportunity to show his true colors... However, You Ling had long known that John was a guy who could not hide his thoughts and was quite free and easy-going - at this moment when he called out his trump card and had the situation in his hands, of course he would laugh heartily at his opponent without even pretending.

In contrast, You Ling was clearly on the weaker side—whether it was the Flame King monsters on his field that were smaller in size and build, or the slightly frowning expression on his face, all clearly showed his disadvantage at the moment.

——However, the fact is still not so... In fact, only You Ling himself knows that at this moment, he is just looking at this Rainbow Bridge Dragon and his imagination runs wild, and he is not worried about the current situation at all.

Looking at the scene with the Rainbow Dragon standing behind John, You Ling couldn't help but have a lot of thoughts - the GX anime that he had watched countless times in his previous life kept appearing in his mind, making him think... if the deck used at this time was the Cyber Dragon, it would seem to be even cooler.

──That's right, as a duelist who has watched quite a lot of Yu-Gi-Oh anime and immersed in Yu-Gi-Oh for many years, the classic scene of the Cyber Dragon Terminator versus the Rainbow Dragon has naturally emerged in You Ling's mind... This should also be a classic scene engraved in the DNA of most duelists.

...It's a pity that in this duel, he used the Fire King - in a game where it was obviously impossible to change the deck, his Cyber Dragon could only lie dormant in the backpack, and there was no way to recreate the famous scene here.

But You Ling didn't dwell on this for too long. He just shook his head and put his attention back on the duel... But it was obvious that his shaking head was misunderstood by John on the opposite side, who thought that You Ling was looking at his ace in distress.

But this time, You Ling didn't give John a chance to show his true face - he just used his sharp eyes to quickly scan the field card "Rainbow Ancient City" on the field.

——Just now, when John performed this Fusion Summon and activated the Ultra Gem Formation, obviously due to the limitations of this anime world and the fact that its Gemmon monsters are most likely to be physically limited to one, he had already sent the Gemmon monsters that had turned into continuous magic in the backfield to the graveyard... After all, no matter how powerful this Trap Card is, in order to summon the Gem God, the price it has to pay is that all seven types of Gemmon monsters cannot be lost.

And now, in John's backfield, in his magic trap area, there was only one [Ultimate Gem Beast Rainbow Dragon] left... Obviously, he wanted to keep it as a sustaining force for use in the next round.

Therefore, in You Ling's opinion, the current situation wasn't that bad. Although John on the opposite side had successfully summoned a monster of the caliber of Rainbow Bridge Dragon, he also had to face a serious problem... His Field Card, [Rainbow Ancient City], had lost most of its effect after the number of Gem Beast cards in the backfield changed, leaving only this one.
