Who asked him to play Yu-Gi-Oh!

Chapter 1660: Judgment of the Demon King
"My turn, draw a card!"

The thousand clones drew cards.

But after drawing the card, his expression froze for a moment, staring at the card with a somewhat complicated look.

"What? Didn't you draw the card you wanted?" You Xuan tilted his head and said, "Come on, don't be shy, Lord Qianzun, show it to everyone."

Because Senju's own perpetual spell "The Contract of the Thousand Lords" is still present, the cards drawn by both sides naturally need to be shown to each other.

This was one of the reasons why the conman found the young man in front of him to be sleazy.

The opponent has a "Royal Decree" card in their back row that can ban all spell effects on the field. However, this guy says, "Hey, I have it, but I'm not going to use it. I'm just playing around."

The benefits of doing this are obvious.

Since it's the swindler's turn now, as long as Yu Xuan doesn't activate the imperial edict, the "Contract with the Thousand Lords" will remain in effect. The swindler must reveal the cards he draws, and if he draws a spell, he cannot Normal Summon it.

Meanwhile, You Xuan held the imperial edict in the rear, so the initiative was in his hands.

He could simply activate the decree when he didn't want to accept the effects of the "Thousand Lords' Contract," and not activate it when he wanted the cheater to be affected by the contract.

The same principle applies to other spells. Royal Decree is a trap card that can be activated during the opponent's turn. In other words, even if the cheater has some powerful spell cards, it's perfectly feasible to chain Royal Decree after the cheater activates it first.

The thousand clones, their faces grim, had no choice but to accept the effect of their "contract with the thousands of masters," and revealed the card they had just drawn.

Upgrade magic, the Seven Emperors' Sword.

You Xuan whistled: "Ha, that was a really good draw. You're really something, old swindler, you actually drew the Seven Emperors' Sword!"

The Seven Emperors' Sword is one of the strongest upgrade spells to appear in the anime, and it's also a trump card that every member of the Seven Emperors' faction possesses.

In short, the Seven Emperors' Sword allows the caster to ignore the summoning conditions and summon any No. 100 or higher from either the Extra Deck or Graveyard. This No. 1 can then be used to Rank Up and transform into the corresponding No. 100 monster.

In other words, drawing this card guarantees the unconditional summoning of any one of the Seven Emperors' top-tier Aces (over 100), along with an Xyz Material. It's a free way to acquire a powerful terminal monster—clean, efficient, and without cost; only benefits, no risks—it's almost unreasonably powerful.

Of course, this unreasonable card was nerfed when it was made into a physical card, and it can now only be activated "when drawn during the draw phase". As a result, this card immediately went from being a god-tier card that could be used right away in the anime to a privilege reserved for those who draw the best cards – most players who haven't maxed out their deck synergy will have the Seven Emperors' Swords stuck in their hand, a pure dead card that can't be used at all.

Although Lao Qian is not one of the Seven Emperors, he is the one who gave them all their power, and he created all the over 100 No. cards himself. So it's not surprising that he has this card.

Normally, this draw by the swindler would be considered a divine draw, as the release of over a hundred Chaos Number cards would immediately give him a huge advantage in the game.

But the premise is
He's actually able to drive it out!
The opponent clearly has the Royal Decree in their back row, so it's easy to imagine that if he activates the Seven Emperors' Sword, the opponent will definitely chain the Royal Decree, and then his trump card, which could have taken off in one go, will become useless.

Even worse, the Seven Emperors' Sword is a spell card. Since he drew a spell card this turn, and based on his own "Thousand Lords' Contract" effect, he can't even perform a Normal Summon this turn.
The conman has been discovered.

The guy on the other side deliberately didn't activate the imperial edict, but even without activating it, as long as the old swindler knew that the imperial edict was there, he wouldn't dare to use magic casually. He was still suppressed by the imperial edict invisibly.

Meanwhile, You Xuan himself could use magic freely without any effect. The royal decree, which was supposed to suppress both sides, was instead kept covered, turning into a one-way blockade against Lao Qian.

Of course, Lao Qian could also choose to activate the Seven Emperors' Sword, forcing the other side to open the imperial edict. In that case, You Xuan would have to accept the magic seal just like him.

But this is the sword of the Seven Emperors!
He used a card to directly defeat Chaos's trump card, only to end up with everyone feeling helpless and isolated – a complete waste. The opposing team would probably be quite happy to see him do that.

The thousand clones glanced at their own hand, then at the Judgement Demon King on the field, and quickly made up their minds.

"Convert 'CNO.65 Judgment Demon King - Judgment Demon' to Defense Position," said the Thousand Lord clone. [CNO.65 Judgment Demon King - Judgment Demon, Attack 1600 → Defense 0]

"Add another face-down card, and the turn ends."

"Oh, a defensive card with a cover effect, even someone as powerful as Master Qian is helpless against it?" You Xuan laughed.

The thousand clones merely watched him coldly without uttering a sound.

"Then it's my turn, draw a card."

You Xuan glanced at the card he had drawn and casually showed it to the world.

"The card I drew is the magic card 'Space Cyclone'."

According to the effect of the Thousand Venerable Contract, he cannot use a normal summon this turn, but he obviously doesn't care much.

“Next is the effect of the spell card ‘Take Over 5’ in the graveyard,” Yu Xuan said. “During the next Standby Phase, banish this card from the graveyard and draw one card from your Deck.”

Magic cards floated out of Youxuan's graveyard, and he drew another card.

After drawing the card, he paused briefly, glanced at the Judgment Demon King in a defensive stance on the opponent's field, and laughed, "I remember this Demon King is quite troublesome, he has a very formidable ability."

"As long as this guy is on the field, it seems like none of the monsters on my field can activate their monster effects, right?"

The thousand clones narrowed their eyes.

"You seem to know quite a lot." He was genuinely surprised that You Xuan knew this much. "But even if you do, so what?"

The conman retorted, "If you block me, does that mean I won't block you?"

You won't let me use magic? Fine, then you can't use your monster effects either.

Come on, hurt each other.

If it were a physical card, it wouldn't be so bad. No matter how strong the Judgment Demon King's sealing ability is, its defense of 0 is its fatal flaw, and it can be dealt with simply by attacking. However, in the anime world, NO. cannot be destroyed by battle, and this inherent resistance immediately makes its self-locking sealing ability much stronger.

"It's impressive, but there's a prerequisite for this effect, right?" You Xuan smiled. "Isn't it true that this effect only works when the Demon King of Judgment has 'NO.65 Demon of Judgment' as an Xyz Material?"

The thousand clones frowned: "So what if it is?"

This is also a characteristic of Chaos Numbers, which are almost universal; only Chaos Numbers transformed from their original form have an exclusive effect.

"Then of course we'll use this trick."

You Xuan cast a spell.

"Quick-Play Spell 'Space Cyclone'! This card can remove one Xyz Material from the field!"

The thousand clones: "???"
