After watching the entire duel, Shen Sui concluded that the current public opinion was sowhat unjust to Feng Lindu.
The defeat in this final was not because Feng Lindu was inadequate, but purely because his style was severely restrained.
Having dueled Feng Lindu once, Shen Sui was well aware that Feng Lindu’s whole deck was centered around the Soul Card of Lin Zhen.
This wasn’t a mistake; most Life Card Masters’ decks are centered around Soul Cards. However, Feng Lindu erred in being overly dependent on the Soul Card. Once his Soul Card is neutralized by various ans, his dueling rhythm collapses in a short ti until there’s a way to retrieve Lin Zhen.
This makes Feng Lindu a very targetable opponent.
Destruction, exclusion, bounce, liberation, seize control....
If only targeting one card, an opponent can have countless ways to neutralize it. In fact, that’s what Yang Liguang did. Her final deck was filled with cards targeting Feng Lindu’s Soul Card, clearly having studied Feng Lindu’s deck in advance.
Feng Lindu actually knew the flaw in his deck, but his approach seed sowhat odd.
He cycled through a large number of Soul Card forms and used those with resistance in the duel.
Shen Sui determined that in the duel, most of the Soul Card forms Feng Lindu used had resistance, with only a few compromising for strength.
So many Soul Card forms, even Shen Sui was a bit envious, wondering how he managed to acquire them.
Having his weakness exploited and style restrained, Feng Lindu was completely suppressed throughout the duel with no chance to counterattack.
Yang Liguang, who already had a personality that liked to taunt, imdiately launched wide-ranging attacks upon gaining such an advantage.
Calling him a commoner, forever ignorant of the true sun like a roach in the sewer.
Shen Sui sensed a deliberateness.
Very deliberate.
The word "commoner" is rarely ntioned in modern Huaxia daily language; it appears more in the catchphrases of malicious villains or haughty young ladies in ani.
It’s indeed strange for such words to be spoken by a Huaxia contestant.
And more conspicuous in a Life Card Duel competition.
If you’re going to taunt, at least call him a "Mortal Bone"; that’s more palatable to .
Of course, putting this aside, Yang Liguang did indeed irritate the majority. Most of the audience there supported Feng Lindu. Traditionally, losers in Life Card Duel matches have no right to breathe. Despite the fans present, more would remain silent. But this ti was different; Yang Liguang’s taunts drew a lot of jeers from the audience, with so angry fans even intending to act.
The real-world turmoil was brief, but the online onslaught remained ceaseless.
Shen Sui casually browsed a few forums, and everyone was discussing today’s Silver Moon Infinite Cup final.
From this perspective, the hype of this final was truly maxed out; just by looking at public opinion, you’d think the Silver Moon Infinite Cup was a new world-class A category competition.
Many were angry, more were despairing.
Shen Sui saw a group of dostic fans who earnestly loved dueling but never received feedback.
The key was still that Feng Lindu’s loss was too ugly. He was completely suppressed throughout the final. Anyone with discerning eyes could see his style was restrained, but groups are irrational. If he had lost a little better, the spectators supporting Feng Lindu wouldn’t be so desperate.
Ah....
Looking at this trend, Shen Sui contemplated future scenarios.
He intended to reach the top, and no towering mountain ahead could halt his advance.
As long as he keeps winning, no matter how he handles his public persona, many fans will gradually gather around him.
So sincerely hoping he wins, so sent by opponents to overpraise him, and so simply supporting his background.
So, how should he handle similar situations then?
After thinking for three seconds, Shen Sui abandoned the thought.
Why consider dealing with such situations?
As long as I keep winning, every problem will solve itself.
Real-life matters are sotis that simple.
The night had deepened.
Below the city’s lights, the night sky had lost its starlight.
Feng Lindu huddled in the darkness; the furniture in the rental room had long been smashed to pieces.
His eyes were bloodshot, intently focusing on the room’s only light—the screen of the Dueling Device.
Not strong enough!
Not strong enough!
Still not strong enough!
Feng Lindu’s face appeared highly distorted in the sole light, with vacant eyes, manic laughter, and aningless muscle twitches, making him seem like soone not belonging to this world.
[Lin Zhen sensed danger and imdiately looked at his phone.]
[’Goodbye, Lin Zhen.’]
[The ssage was short and pale, reminding Lin Zhen of that beautiful girl.]
[She was so beautiful, so gentle, comforting Lin Zhen’s cold heart with her soft body every chilly night.]
[He turned on the radar device, seeing countless zombies surging toward the girl’s location on the screen.]
[Lin Zhen didn’t hesitate and rushed there.]
[This ti! Even if just once! He wants to succeed in saving others.]
[You stand aside, indifferent to Lin Zhen’s actions.]
Here it cos! Here it cos!
This is the chance for evolution! Lin Zhen! Grow stronger! Grow stronger in despair!
[You used the Ti Regulator, adjusting the flow of ti to 1:1]
[Lin Zhen used all his ans to advance.]
[Advance! Advance! He didn’t want to lose again.]
[The Kinetic Armor overheated, and he discarded it, one of the world’s most precious equipnt, the foundation for many’s survival, yet he didn’t hesitate at all.]
[Because he can’t waste a second of ti.]
[Yet reality is brutal.]
[The area was filled with a massive number of zombies, rendering the radar useless; finding the girl’s trace was impossible.]
[Lin Zhen shouted and slaughtered.]
[He couldn’t understand why, despite giving his all, he couldn’t save his lover.]
[Along the way, he lost his lover, his friends, his family.]
[It seed that anyone related to him ended up unfortunate.]
[He always tried to save, but never succeeded.]
[His childhood friend, to protect the weak him, died in the apocalypse.]
[His close friend, supporting him, was ambushed and died.]
[His wife...]
[His uncle...]
[His girlfriend...]
[....]
[All sorts of past events flashed before Lin Zhen, leaving him desperate and unwilling.]
[Seeing the girl’s mutilated body intensified these emotions.]
[He couldn’t comprehend why fate continued to mock him despite his efforts.]
[Until her death, the girl made no cry, clenching her teeth as her hands scratched the hard ground, leaving a massive trail of blood.]
[She wanted to die silently, so Lin Zhen couldn’t find her trace.]
[A silent disappearance was the girl’s final tenderness for Lin Zhen.]
[Despair, anger, unwillingness....]
[Countless emotions surged in Lin Zhen’s heart, with past incidents flashing before his eyes like a carousel.]
[Why?]
[Why?!]
[Why!!!]
Here it cos! Here it cos!
Feng Lindu showed an excited expression, new form! Quickly! New form! I want to beco stronger! Beco stronger! I want to defeat everyone! Stand at the top nationwide! Reach the top of the world!!!
[Lin Zhen seed to have realized sothing.]
[In the most despairing mont, he saw the truth of the world.]
[He understood everything.]
[Lin Zhen slowly turned around.]
[He looked at you.]
