This Hextech Duel Master is a pro at getting targets.

At his command, the arrogant black magician leaped into the air!

With a sudden swing of the dark blue staff, a dark spell was unleashed!

But at that very moment, You Shuo activated his face-down card: "Spell Card Activation - Attack Ban!"

"Change your Dark Magician to Defense Position!"

"Furthermore, the tree spirit's stealth ability has been triggered!"

"When this card is attacked, if you activate a Spell Card, you can prevent the attacking monster from changing its battle position!"

"With these two effects combined, your Dark Magician will only be able to exist in a defensive posture, and my Treant will also be able to avoid this attack!"

The tree spirit wasn't a particularly strong monster, but under You Shuo's control, it displayed considerable power at this moment.

"Splash splash splash splash—"

Countless tree roots burst forth from the ground, attempting to imprison the dark magician!

The turnaround in the situation left the audience stunned.

Faced with Yu Shuo's combo, Wang Yang was also somewhat surprised. Since the Dark Magician was completely controlled, he could only put down his card to end his turn.

By now, Yu Shuo had used up most of his powerful offensive monsters. The Dark Magician's defense was not low, and it wouldn't be easy to defeat it using only the monsters' combat power...

"My turn, draw a card," You Shuo said. "Attack Position Summon—Trent!"

"Round over!"

"Trent's hidden ability has been triggered. This card will gain 15% increased attack and defense at the end of each turn!"

"Grow up!"

"Trent!!"

【Trent】

【Five stars】

[Earth Attribute/Plant Tribe]

[Attack/Defense: 1500/1800]

[Description: A large tree that is still growing is the guardian of the forest.]

"Beep beep beep------"

[Trent, Attack/Defense: 1500/1800 → 1725/2070]

You Shuo's tactical intentions were very clear.

He wanted to use the tree spirit to control the dark magician and keep Trent growing stronger. As long as Trent's attack power exceeded the dark magician's defense power, he could launch a counterattack!

Wang Yang drew a card from the deck, his brow furrowing slightly.

The Treant's control effect is too troublesome; it doesn't belong to any card category, and even spell removal and trap removal are useless against it.

unless……

You can destroy the tree spirit with monsters, but You Shuo must have prepared other cards. If you attack rashly, you'll definitely get hit by that combo again...

Wang Yang pondered inwardly.

He now has two choices...

One strategy is to summon a demon and use the combo effect of Demonic Mist Rain and Demonic Lightning to destroy the tree spirit; the other is to collect all the cards...

As long as he can collect all five cards, he can secure victory in this battle!

Countless images of the previous duel flashed through my mind...

He defeated the Sea Duelist, Ryota Sakaki; he defeated the Mountain Duelist, Raiichi Noba; and he defeated that evil Bakura…

Those five cards all played a crucial role.

That was an irresistible and powerful offensive!

Once it's used, the opponent has no chance to retaliate!

Wang Yang's gaze sharpened, and he made a decision.

But he also knew he absolutely couldn't make it too obvious...

"My turn, draw a card!"

"Attack signal summons—Dark Knight Gaia!!"

Chapter 89 The Bomb of Growth

"Attack signal summons—Dark Knight Gaia!"

With a wave of his card, Wang Yang suddenly appeared as a burly knight riding a black steed!

Dark Knight Gaia

【Seven Stars】

[Earth Attribute/Warrior Race]

Attack/Defense: 2300/2100

[Description: A knight riding a horse faster than the wind. Beware of charging attacks.]

"Enter battle phase!"

"Dark Knight Gaia!"

"Attack Trent!!"

Wang Yang announced loudly, and a dark storm surged forth. The knight on the warhorse thrust out his spear, aiming at You Shuo's ever-growing monster!

King Yu did not choose the tree spirit that could control the Dark Magician.

He knew very well that there was a very special card in this era called Trent. This card could instantly skip three rounds. Once You Shuo played this card in the next round, Trent's combat power would become incredibly terrifying!

There's no need to worry about controlling the tree spirits for now, so we need to prioritize dealing with Trent, who's putting constant pressure on us!

Jonouchi Katsuya exclaimed, "Attack! Yugi still has some great ace cards!"

Bakura said, "Dark Knight Gaia has a counter advantage when it takes the initiative to attack, and Trent has no chance of withstanding it no matter what!"

The next second, You Shuo revealed his face-down card, a cruel trap card—Piercing Trap Hole!

This card can destroy the monster your opponent just summoned this turn. Although it can only be activated when that monster attacks, it can deal additional damage to your opponent equal to half of that monster's ATK!

In addition, there's a unique rule of this era—if a monster is destroyed by an effect, the controller suffers 30% damage. Yugi will be severely tricked by this Piercing Trap Hole!

Wang Yang's eyes lit up, and he shouted, "Then I'll activate the magic card—Seven Star Sword!"

"Ban Dark Knight Gaia and draw two cards from your deck!"

"Activate the Spell Card - Pot of Greed, draw two cards from your deck."

"Set one card face down, end the turn."

Having thwarted Wang Yang's counterattack, You Shuo drew a card and said, "My turn, draw a card, set one card, end of turn. At this moment, Trent grows once again!"

"Splash splash splash splash—"

The sound of rustling leaves filled the air, and the enormous ancient tree seemed to grow even thicker, radiating a powerful magical energy.

Everyone watching was on tenterhooks.

The current situation is extremely tense.

Wang Yang's ace black magician is unable to move, while You Shuo's Trent is constantly growing stronger.

The two sides were locked in a time-sensitive offensive and defensive battle.

If this continues, Trent will grow to an extremely terrifying and outrageous degree.

Wang Yang's turn began again. He glanced at the card he had just drawn, then looked at the card he already had in his hand, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.

"My turn, draw a card!"

"Activate the Spell Card - Sword of Light!"

"Defense Position Summon - Catapult Turtle!"

"Put a card on it."

"Round over!"

"Shuashuashua——"

Three beams of light descended from the sky, completely sealing off You Shuo's scene!

With these three cards in hand, Yu Shuo's monsters are completely unable to launch any attacks.

You Shuo was slightly taken aback when he saw this.

"The Sword of Light..."

"My monster cannot attack for three rounds..."

"Are you worried that I'll use some card to boost monster attack power next turn and then defeat Dark Magician?"

"Whether I add more monsters or enhance Trent's fighting power, Yugi will be absolutely safe for three rounds..."

"Are you going to use the catapult turtle to deplete my LP in these three rounds...?"

But in an instant, You Shuo recalled Wang Yang's Seven-Star Sword and the Pot of Greed.

Yu Shuo's keen senses immediately made him realize that what Wang Yang wanted to do was probably not so simple!

This catapult turtle is most likely just a decoy!

In my mind, those five cards surfaced from my memory. The five sealed cards were absolute legends among Duel Monsters!

You Shuo's eyes sharpened.

"My turn, draw a card!"

"Activate the Spell Card - Angel's Charity!"

Draw three cards from your deck, then discard two.

"Next, Attack Signal - Flame Swordsman!"

"Activate the Spell Card - Time Leap!"

"Both sides cease all action; the rounds will proceed in three consecutive rounds!"

"In this way, Trent's attack power has grown to the point where it can penetrate a dark magician!"

"Furthermore, I can summon another monster in the new turn!"

"Go for it, Diamond Dragon!"

"Because I have a Light-attribute monster on my field - Treant!"

"Therefore, the dazzling light of the Diamond Dragon will blind all the monsters on your field!"

"Furthermore, the effect of the Light-Sealing Sword has been removed due to the time jump!"

With his incredibly smooth maneuvering, Yu Shuo instantly broke through the combo of Yugi the Catapult and the Light-Sealing Sword, and with four monsters on the field, he could launch an all-out attack immediately!

At that moment, both Katsuya Jonouchi and Hiroto Honda were on tenterhooks.

"too horrible!"

"Hey, hey, hey, that tree is a little too scary now!"

Everyone looked up and saw that the purple Trent had grown into a towering tree!

You Shuo waved his arm and shouted, "Enter battle phase! Trent! Attack the Dark Mage!"

However, at this moment, Wang Yang smiled leisurely: "You Shuo, I guessed it. It is expected that an opponent like you would use time leap to break the Light Protection Sword!"

"So, I also planted this card!"

"Divine Power - Reflecting Mirror Wall!!"

"When an opponent's monster attacks, destroy all Attack Position monsters on your opponent's field!"

"You Shuo, according to the Duel Kingdom Tournament rules, when a monster is destroyed, it must suffer a backlash damage equal to 30% of its attack power!"

"Although your Treant and Diamond Dragon are in Defense position, Trent and Flame Swordmaster's combined attack power is enough. Your LP is insufficient to withstand this damage!"
