Elemental Card King.

Chapter 8 Talent is More Than Just Summoning
"You're serious, kid?"

He Hongyu was no longer the refined young master he once was; his white shirt was covered in dust, and there were scratches on his face, making him look quite disheveled.

"Isn't your private Yucai School always putting real action in your practical classes?"

"Judging from your posture just now, you weren't trying to fool me, so I'll play along to the end."

Su Chen smiled.

He stepped forward and reached out to pull the figure lying on its back on the ground to its feet.

Nearby, Xiao Ling, who had switched back to her wood elemental form, was already using the skill 'Breath of Life' to heal her defeated opponent.

"I accept the defeat with all my heart."

He Hongyu sighed and said, "Your card master talent is too domineering. Although I had anticipated that you had a spell card that could transform into multiple attributes, I still didn't know where to start when I actually tried to take it on."

Su Chen's talent is not limited to summoning cards; he can also use it on spell cards, weapon cards, and many other types of cards.

of course
Su Chen couldn't transform or change the attributes of the card [Dance of the Firebird] in He Hongyu's hand.

Because in the real world, there are no cards like 'Ice Bird' or 'Thunder Bird' from the same system or series.

The card 【Wind's Protection】 comes from the Wind cards of the Elemental Guardian series.

In other words.

The cards, representing different elements such as fire, earth, wood, and thunder, form a complete elemental guardian series.

at the moment.

The spell card Su Chen held in his hand was the Water Card [Water's Protection].

Just as the card suggests, you are as gentle as a clear spring and as resilient as a raging storm; the protection of water will surround and safeguard you.

"In addition, your handling of the spell card is quite good. The gale kept spreading outward, and finally it spread into water, and then it gave you a conductivity. It was indeed a stroke of genius."

He Hongyu reviewed the battle and praised the details.

Spell cards aren't just something you play once you've cast them; to maximize their effectiveness, you can fine-tune them under the guidance of a card master.

The flock of fire crows earlier were attacking from the left, right, up, and down under the control of He Hongyu's will.

"Judging from this, your elemental transformation talent is probably easier for you than mine in practical spellcasting," He Hongyu speculated.

"Go on, what other advantages do you have?" Su Chen looked pleased; praise from his opponent was the most genuine.

Seeing the other person's expression of extreme enjoyment, the usually calm and composed He Hongyu was speechless and almost lost his composure.

"Gone."

It took He Hongyu a while to catch his breath.

"Alright, lunch is on me, go ahead and rip me off."

Su Chen patted his good friend on the shoulder to comfort him.

“I’ve already made a reservation at the restaurant. I was planning to celebrate your successful awakening of your talent. As for your money, you should save it for the enhancement material cards.” He Hongyu shook his head and said, “I just talked about so many advantages, and now here comes your disadvantage.”

"besides."

"Haven't you noticed that you've gotten stronger in your hands?"

The training lasted the entire morning.

After suffering a crushing defeat in actual combat, He Hongyu began to focus on training his skills, while Su Chen also showed off all the elemental spirits with their other attributes and states, carefully letting Xiao Ling figure out the changes.

At the same time, one must keep in mind that at least one of one's existing talents, skills, and suitable playstyle must be good.

As for He Hongyu, he was constantly honing his skills in handling the Firebird while being trained.

It's worth mentioning that He Hongyu's card master talent is to amplify the damage of fire-type cards.

Therefore, he aims for the ultimate 'Phoenix Deck' and works hard towards that goal.

The two cards he's currently building are clearly laying the foundation.

According to He Hongyu, the weapon card [Mysterious Bird Mask] is his core card in the early game.

Wearing it not only grants the user the ability to transform into a Xuan Bird, but also allows for easier and more free control of other firebirds.

"After inheriting the skills of the Xuan Bird, it also greatly enhances its own safety protection ability." While eating, He Hongyu couldn't help but complain, "Card players who play spell cards and summon cards are afraid of becoming the target of the enemy, so the idea of ​​building a core deck in the early stage is correct."

"pity."

"When you encounter a monster like you, I'm completely helpless." "Which deck dares to claim invincibility in the early to mid-game?"

"If there is one, it is indeed the elemental deck that combines your talents."

They dined at Dingminglu Restaurant in Xianye New Town.

Dingminglu was successfully selected and awarded a one-star rating in the latest 519 Gold Inlaid Jade Restaurant Guide.

The key criteria for a restaurant to be awarded the Gold Inlaid Jade Restaurant designation are whether it possesses high-level culinary skills and whether its dishes are beneficial to the card players themselves.

They ordered a 2888 Supreme Double Set Meal, which included one soup, two desserts, and four main dishes.

The jade soup was very fragrant and delicious, and the taste was alright.

The roasted pigeon is served with a strong aroma of the pot. One bite reveals a crispy skin and tender, juicy meat inside.

As for the other dishes, their taste was ordinary and rather average.

"The value of this dish lies in its ability to regulate the body and calm the mind." He Hongyu pointed to another plate of dragon-bearded squid with his chopsticks and said, "This was air-freighted from the Spirit Sea Plane. It's for freshness."

"good."

After finishing his meal, Su Chen felt his energy recover more quickly.

Even the feeling of fatigue has lessened considerably.

The rating of this Gold Inlaid Jade Restaurant is definitely not fake.

In the end, He Hongyu paid for the meal.

"This meal is to celebrate your successful awakening of your talent. We'll treat you to another meal when you make it to the provincial competition."

After the meal, he waved goodbye.

The intense use of spells throughout the morning had already taken a considerable toll on him.

As for Su Chen, he felt it was alright. Just so-so.

"Alright, don't forget the sparring session the day after tomorrow."

With only a week left before school starts, Su Chen needs to make the most of his time for training.

As for the afternoon, he should have the copied card by then.

It's time to start strengthening it.

After returning home.

Half past three in the afternoon.

Inside the bright and spacious bedroom, Su Chen's tall frame sank into the soft sofa.

He closed his eyes and began to relax completely. Gradually, his distracting thoughts disappeared, and the noise and chaos outside the window were shut out.

soon.

He entered a state of mental introspection.

Upon 'opening his eyes' again, a spiritual space that transcends the material realm appeared. Within it, a sea of ​​consciousness glowed with a pale white light, and the shimmering, calm surface of the water occasionally reflected fragmented images of memories.

It was like a mirage in a dream, mesmerizing yet ethereal and elusive.

Above this sea of ​​consciousness, clouds with various mesmerizing glows drifted by, their seven colors corresponding precisely to the elemental attributes that Su Chen could currently switch between.

Surrounded by wispy clouds of various colors, the two cards of the contract hung high above.

In addition, a water-attribute card with a deep blue card face has also been completed.

After 23 hours and 15 minutes, the duplicated [Water Sprite Swordsman] was finally obtained.

At the exact moment, this brand-new card broke free from an invisible constraint, detaching itself from the colorless and transparent card and standing on its own.

"Absolutely brand new, practically flawless."

Su Chen was amazed.

This isn't some kind of magic trick; it's the actual generation of a brand-new green-quality card.

According to the secondhand market prices he had previously checked, even items labeled as "90% new for female use - Water Sprite Swordsman" could sell for nearly 70,000 Alliance Coins.

His brand-new, flawless card must be worth at least 76,000 Alliance Coins.
