"The duel begins!"
As the referee's words fell, the Wu Yue Cup quarterfinals match between Shen Sui and Tu Qingyun comnced.
"You really have no idea." Tu Qingyun licked her lips, "As a professional player, you're quite incompetent, aren't you?"
"Whatever." Shen Sui saw her attitude and didn't bother to ask what he supposedly should know, "I always speak through duels. I hate riddlers the most."
With that said, Shen Sui shouted loudly, "My first move."
Just as his voice dropped, the turn card fell on his field, indicating he got the chance for the first move.
Shen Sui glanced at his opening hand and almost without pause, usually summoned [Magic Apprentice Alice] from his hand.
Alice made her shining debut.
"Pay 2 Soul Points to perform a Form Transformation on Alice."
Shen Sui raised his hand and directly transford Alice into [Junior Mage Alice].
As a result, the effect of this card's Form Transformation activated, and Shen Sui got a Spell Card from the deck.
"The Spell Card I choose is!" Shen Sui unfolded his deck and drew one from it, "Spell Card [Air Force]."
Then, Shen Sui usually summoned Hali as well.
Activated Hali's effect and equipped [Andrew's Staff] to Hali from the deck.
"Pay 2 Soul Points, set one Spell Card."
"Pay 3 Soul Points, set one Spell Card."
After doing all the above, Shen Sui set two cards and ended the turn directly.
Two followers, two set cards, two hand cards, and one Equipnt Spell Card.
This is all Shen Sui did for his first turn.
"My turn ends."
Tu Qingyun looked through Shen Sui's display with an examining gaze.
Then, she announced the start of her turn.
Here, she took a deliberate pause, almost certain that Shen Sui's 2-star set card in the backfield was obviously [Air Force].
Sure enough, Shen Sui flipped open the set card: "At the start of your turn, flip open the set card! Activate Spell Card [Air Force]!"
Tu Qingyun showed no sign of surprise.
Next ca the strategic battle between the two.
Holding the initiative, Tu Qingyun glanced at her opening hand.
Primarily Follower Cards.
Then she could not let the opponent seal her Follower Cards.
"Main Phase." Tu Qingyun spoke, "Pay 3 Soul Points, and from my hand, activate Spell Card [Water Jumping Joint Attack]."
Since it's probing [Air Force], she activated a Spell Card relatively less useful from her hand.
With the effect of this Spell Card, the subsequent effect of [Air Force] continued.
The top card of Shen Sui's deck was flipped open.
It was the Follower Card [Sacrificial Puppet Ada].
The fish wasn't hooked.
Shen Sui discarded all cards from his hand.
Of course, it was actually only one.
Following this, the effect of [Water Jumping Joint Attack] continued, allowing Tu Qingyun to Special Summon a follower from her hand.
"Special Summon from my hand, [Magical Girl Aliaxi]."
"When you Special Summon a follower!" Shen Sui did not hesitate to open the set card, "Flip the set card, activate Spell Card [Fire Drill]! Choose one follower from each side of the field to activate, destroy the selected followers! At the start of each player's turn, if the follower exists in the graveyard, it can be Special Summoned to the field."
Shen Sui chose the Magical Girl that Tu Qingyun Special Summoned and his [Junior Mage Alice].
"Next, the effect of [Junior Mage Alice] activates." Shen Sui continued without pause, "When she is destroyed by battle or effect and sent to the graveyard, pay half your Life Value to Special Summon the follower to the field!"
[Junior Mage Alice] returned to the field, but due to her own effect, she was forcibly transford back to Alice's initial form [Magic Apprentice Alice].
Tu Qingyun seed yet to realize the seriousness of the situation and just watched as Shen Sui told his story.
"Pay 5 Soul Points to usually summon from my hand, [Magical Girl Akari Kato]!"
However, when this beautiful girl successfully debuted, the progress bar of the ti point lit up.
"In a situation when you successfully Summon or Special Summon a follower, activate the effect of Alice on my field to destroy her and the follower you Summoned."
With a crisp sound, the two Follower Cards were destroyed in response.
However, when Alice went to the graveyard, the ti progress bar lit up again.
Alice's subsequent effect activated. After Alice was destroyed by her effect and went to the graveyard, Shen Sui could activate a Spell Card from the deck.
"I choose to activate Spell Card! [Recovery]."
Similar to [Junior Mage Alice], Shen Sui could choose the [Magic Apprentice Alice] in the graveyard for Special Summon.
This is one of the benefits of Life Card Duel; Shen Sui doesn't have to worry about cards not entering the graveyard due to being chained before their subsequent effects can activate, because all cards will enter the graveyard upon activation unless their effects are still executing. If it's specified that the activation timing is after it enters the graveyard, the execution ti point will restart another chain after it enters the graveyard.
"At this mont." Shen Sui's chain was not over yet, "Due to Alice's effect being activated, I can activate the effect of the Equipnt Spell Card [Andrew's Staff] on my field, return the [Recovery] in the graveyard to the deck and activate it, allowing both players to draw one card."
The chain Shen Sui used in his first duel in this world appeared again before everyone.
His old fans erupted in enthusiastic cheers, because they've watched all the public videos of Shen Sui's duels, they naturally knew this was the chain he used during his debut match duel examination.
They thought, after [Star Magic Array] was banned, this strong restriction chain should disappear, yet Shen Sui brought it out again now.
Only, the slot for [Star Magic Array] was replaced by [Andrew's Staff], and unlike the forr, it was not without cost, requiring the opponent to draw one card.
Tu Qingyun drew a card from her deck.
Then she attempted to Summon a follower again, and the sa drama unfolded once more.
Seeing Alice return to the field through regeneration, Tu Qingyun knew that she wouldn't be able to set up the field properly if she couldn't get rid of this annoying entity.
Does she have a way to clear the field?
Tu Qingyun glanced at her hand. Because of [Andrew's Staff]'s effect, she drew two more cards.
She couldn't suppress the corner of her mouth from upturning, but quickly pressed it down.
Shen Sui squinted his eyes, becoming alert at once.
He was very clear on the aning of this expression.
A duelist's expression when drawing a key card.
Yet, to his slight surprise, Tu Qingyun never mounted a proper counterattack throughout.
After being constrained by Alice, she seed to have achieved so objective, contently watched herself being chipped away until defeat.
There was no resistance the entire ti.
Sothing's off.
Nine out of ten things feel off.
But until the victory mark representing the duel lit up, he saw no counterattack from Tu Qingyun.
Could it be...this woman is pretending to have a trump card saved?
But I'm not a fool either. Regardless of whether there's a trump card or not, I still have to steal the blood I can.
"I lost." Tu Qingyun smiled at Shen Sui and said, "Looking forward to the next duel. I believe it won't be long."
Upon saying this, she turned and left dashingly, leaving Shen Sui dazed.
"Master, I think I know who she is." After the duel, Qishala said to Shen Sui.
Shen Sui was skeptical: "No way? You know other people in the real world."
Qishala pursed her lips, holding back her laughter, and showed the phone Shen Sui bought her, "Not really, just happened to see this person's na."
Shen Sui looked at the screen, indeed there was Tu Qingyun's na.
Tu Qingyun, a top eight contestant of the Modu Duel Tournant.
Your next-round duel opponent.
"Master, what do you think of this woman?" Qishala leaned in and asked curiously.
"Not impressive, withholding a trump card is an insult to the duel." Shen Sui showed a disdainful expression.
******
Tu Qingyun walked in the cobblestone-paved alley, though it was still dayti, the surroundings seed so dim.
"Don't worry." Tu Qingyun muttered to herself, "There's no problem with the plan. I'm fully aware of the opponent's strength, just waiting for the match day."
"Hehehe, simply taking the Descent Association's word for it? Forget it, might as well believe them this once."
"I don't care what they plan to do with the existence they're seeking called the Twilight Bishop, as long as they can obstruct those from the Exploration Bureau, ensuring my master's descent won't be affected."
"It's ti to let everyone in this world taste real suffering."
