You are not allowed to play Yu-Gi-Oh

Chapter 196 Sometimes, the key to a reversal is a punch from the Ultra Dragon!

brush--

When Yan Li finished speaking, she suddenly pulled out a card from the deck. It was also a monster from [Magic Ceremony], which could search for ritual monsters in the deck.

It seemed that Yan Li had a chance to turn the tables, but in fact, only she knew that if she got here, she would be forced to end it.

She had no more resources to retrieve the ritual magic cards.

Is this the end of it?

Yan Li's face was filled with regret. The league organized by the five major duel academies was of high quality. If she could qualify to participate, it would definitely add a highlight to her resume and she could even get more resources from her club.

She considers herself a genius and thinks that she was just unlucky last year and lost to her opponent.

But now she realized that in Tiannan College, genius might just be the lowest threshold. Those duelists with certain qualities might have already exceeded the imagination of ordinary people.

For example, Lu You's incredible luck...

Able to drag any opponent to the gambling table and win by relying on strong luck.

Situations like his own and Hao Yong's had happened countless times in the college qualifying competition. Many senior students were defeated because they were forced to gamble and failed.

It's really unfair...

Yan Li laughed at herself. In her heart, she knew very well that there was no such thing as fairness in the dueling world. There was only the difference between the strong and the weak.

"I Special Summon [Magic Ceremony - Mandrake Talisman Grass] from my Deck!"

hum...

The next moment, a simple magic circle appeared in front of Yan Li. It looked very similar to ginseng, but a mandrake with a sad face appeared in front of her, as if it would scream at any time.

Seeing this monster, Yan Li sighed.

This was her last struggle...

"I activate the effect of [Magic Ritual - Mandela Talisman Grass]!"

"If this card is Special Summoned from your Deck, you can add 1 Ritual Monster from your Deck to your Hand!"

"The card I chose to add to my hand is [Holy Divination Princess - Tarot Light Priestess]!"

brush--

Yan Li directly retrieved the declared monster. So far, all the resources she had had were used up, and there was no possibility of further development.

Sadly, this mandrake was her final end.

"My turn is over."

The moment Yan Li announced the end of the round, since she did not perform a ritual summon in this round, the Slime Holy Grail effect was activated, deducting 2500 health points.

But it doesn't matter anymore.

The entire match fell silent, and Hao Yong couldn't help but look at Yan Li. Their experiences were so similar, it was like looking in a mirror.

He was naturally aware that Yan Li's goal was also to qualify for the competition, but...

It’s better to stay away from Lu You in the future.

Don't go to the gambling table if you don't have some luck.

The college leaders also stretched their tense back muscles and leaned back in their chairs. They could see that the duel had been decided and one of the places in the college league had been decided.

Lu You...may bring unexpected surprises to this year's league.

"My turn, draw a card!"

Lu You slowly pulled out a card and looked at the life value of the remaining candle in Yan Lifeng. It would be quite easy for him to clear it to zero.

"First, I summon the [Death Guide from the Underworld to Reality] in my hand in Attack Position!"

hum...

She was a beautiful lady in a professional suit, holding a whistle, and her bright red hair was tied into two ponytails that looked like wings.

When this card is successfully summoned, it can Special Summon a 3-star Demon-Type monster from the deck. He originally planned to Special Summon a Three-Eyed Monster, then connect to Anaconda, and Fusion Summon Millennium-Eyed Narakujin.

But now it's obviously not necessary.

"fighting!"

Lu You entered the battle stage without hesitation, and the Thunder Dragon King let out a roar.

"【Thunderbolt Beast - Thunder Dragon King】attacks 【Magic God Ceremony - Mandela Amulet Grass】!"

boom--

The raging thunder and lightning raged across the field, instantly burning the insignificant mandrake, which then exploded with a loud bang.

"Then, [Death Guide from the Demonic World to Reality] will directly attack the other player!"

Click——

The next moment, an old bus drove over, and the tour guide got into the bus with a smile and drove the bus towards Yan Li.

After a dull collision sound, her health points dropped rapidly, and the remaining 900 health points were instantly reduced to zero.

drop--

A shrill reminder sounded, the duel was declared over, the three-dimensional projection was turned off, and all the monsters on the field faded and finally disappeared.

Yan Li stood there dejectedly. After a long sigh, she turned around and prepared to leave the arena.

She undoubtedly lost the duel.

No matter if it is because of lack of strength or bad luck, if you lose, you lose. There is no need to find excuses and there is no room for quibbling.

After a while...

Another qualifying match was also decided, and the final two candidates who qualified were determined.

The academy's top management stood up and said to the two people standing in the middle of the arena:

"Being able to pass the trials means that you are qualified to represent Tiannan in the college league, but you must not underestimate the enemy. There are also many talented and powerful people in other colleges. You must deal with them carefully."

"The goal of this league is naturally to win the championship!"

"You all know that the ranking in the college league will directly affect Tiannan's future plans. Therefore, the college has prepared more generous rewards and is waiting for your triumphant return!"

After saying that, the college executives left the arena.

Zheng Qiao greeted Lu You and prepared to return to his post. As for the details of the league, Liao Yuan would explain them to Lu You and told him not to worry about it.

Not long after, everyone in the stadium dispersed one after another.

The students who had qualified for the competition at the same time as Lu You were waving their fists excitedly.

To some extent, being able to avoid Lu You and successfully pass the selection was also a kind of luck.

As for what’s next…

It seems to be closed training, right?

……

The next day, Lu You came to the classroom and everyone's attention was instantly focused on him. The internal selection competition had just ended yesterday, and the news that the first-year students were successfully selected immediately spread throughout Tiannan.

This is the first time that a freshman can represent the college in the league.

In the classroom, the students looked at Lu You with admiration, their hearts filled with motivation, hoping that they could be successfully selected during their time at school.

After a while, Liao Yuan came into the classroom.

He was not surprised that Lu You successfully passed the selection. After all, someone who was valued by the dark duelists would not lose to some students. He had already experienced this deeply.

At the same time, the academy handed over the coaching duties to him.

Even though Liao Yuan had just joined Tiannan, the experience he had accumulated in national competitions was beyond the reach of other teachers.

Liao Yuan naturally agreed to this request readily.

He accepted the commission to monitor Lu You's duel, and the position of coach was the most suitable for him.

only……

A few days ago, the Dark Duelist assigned him a new task. A batch of newly discovered elf cards needed to be transported to Tiannan, and he had to find a way to get these cards.

For this purpose, the Dark Duelist even prepared a powerful new deck for him.

But Liao Yuan was still hesitating.

Compared with monitoring Lu You, the difficulty of this task is not even on the same level. Not to mention that the other party did not provide any information about the elf cards, the security measures for this batch of newly excavated cards must be very strict.

He has no experience in stealing.

Moreover, this happened right after he started working, it would be strange if he was not suspected.

But that deck of cards was indeed quite attractive, and was definitely worth the risk.

Liao Yuan was still struggling.

drop--

After class, Liao Yuan called Lu You to his office. Since he was the coach, he had to convey the competition process and training requirements to the players.

"Student Lu You, congratulations on passing the internal trials and being able to represent the college in the league."

"I'm sure you've heard that I'm the coach of the team."

"Closed training is about to begin. Before that, this is the reward for the final exam. The academy's top management specially handed it to me. It seems that they have very high expectations for you."

Liao Yuan was not surprised by the college's top management's attitude towards Lu You.

After all, Lu You is still young and has many opportunities. The college's top management will definitely increase investment and focus on training him.

Liao Yuan took out a familiar suitcase, entered the password, opened it, and displayed the neatly arranged cards inside to Lu You.

Lu You looked at the cards saved by the transparent card bricks, one of which was the red pit he was most familiar with.

[The Thunder Hammer of the Iron Cavalry].

This card is a counter trap, and its effect is quite suitable for the Dreadnought Dragon build.

When a monster effect, spell, or trap on the field is activated, you must pay half of your life to activate it, and the activation is negated and destroyed.

It can also destroy cards in the same column.

While reducing his health, he also has the noble three-color Kang. It seems that the academy's top management has selected a lot of suitable cards based on his construction.

Lu You nodded and then looked at the other cards.

On the left side of the [Iron Cavalry's Thunder Hammer] is a Xyz monster, and its race is a dragon. This is...

[Arc Rebellion X-Dragon]?
The effect of this monster is quite simple, which is to add the attack power of all monsters on the field to itself, and then directly kill them.

Furthermore, when this card has a Dark-attribute Xyz Monster as Xyz Material, it can also negate the effects of all face-up monsters on the field except this card.

It can be said to be a powerful weapon for killing and turning the tables.

However, in order to summon it with the Fearless Mad Dragon build, it also requires the cooperation of a four-star Ultra [Strike Team Knight]. This card is not difficult to obtain, and he can easily purchase it.

Both of these cards are quite expensive...

It seems that the college has spent a lot of money to win the championship.

Thinking of this, Lu You looked at the last card.

Surprisingly, it was an effect monster and had nothing to do with the Red Pit, but whether the effect could be activated was extremely dependent on luck.

Seeing Lu You's puzzled look, Liao Yuan smiled and said:

"This is a card that Mr. Zheng Qiao specially selected for you. He said this card is definitely suitable for you."

No wonder……

Zheng Qiao does have a better understanding of his dueling style.

Even knew that he had exchanged monsters of the same field before.

[Power of the Mysteries 14-Moderation]!
This card is for saving your life. Its effect must be activated in your hand. The battle damage you receive can only be reduced to 0 once.
And after being summoned to the field, the effects obtained by tossing a coin are also related to halving combat damage.

The power of the mysteries...

He had exchanged for the Hanged Man in Tiannan's card storage room, and had never seen a monster of the same pattern since then. Only now did he become curious.

That invincible world that can skip turns...where is it?

He couldn't wait to stop the other person's time.

"Student Lu You, are you satisfied with these rewards?"

“The academy’s top management has very high expectations of you. We hope that you can demonstrate your full potential in the league and successfully win the championship.”

Liao Yuan smiled, but he always felt a little awkward inside.

In the past, before he played, his coach would repeat it several times tirelessly, until his ears were callused. But who would have thought that after retiring, he would start nagging a student instead.

What a turn of events.

I never thought that he would become a coach one day.

"Teacher Liao Yuan, I am of course very satisfied with these rewards, but the game still depends on the cooperation between teammates. You can't expect me to defeat the opponent alone."

This is true.

Liao Yuan shook his head. From the information he had obtained, the other contestants were also the best in Tiannan. Some of them even became core members of large clubs before graduation.

I chose to participate in the college league in order to take the opportunity to step into the club's senior management.

Facing these strong players, Liao Yuan had no intention of relaxing. Instead, he wanted to train them more rigorously.

The five major duel academies are places where geniuses gather. Talents that are outstanding in the outside world may not be worth mentioning here.

therefore……

If you want to win successfully, you need to work twice as hard.

Liao Yuan: “…”

He didn't know why he was so concerned about being a coach. He was obviously a teacher just to complete the commission, but now he had other feelings.

Maybe... this is also a way to make up for the regret.

"Student Lu You, closed training will begin the day after tomorrow. Please prepare a spare deck and daily necessities. It may last until the start of the college league."

"By the way, there is no limit to the number of spare decks. You can plan them yourself."

Lu You nodded.

no limit?

What this means is that you can bring everything with you in case of emergencies, right?
Lu You immediately showed a sunny smile.

……

three days later.

Lu You came to the closed training ground that Liao Yuan mentioned. After swiping his card to enter, he found that the facilities inside were complete. In addition to the large dueling arena, there were also luxurious dormitory rooms.

And now in the duel arena, some people have already started training.

Seeing Lu You coming, Liao Yuan came over with the plan in his hand and explained to him the follow-up arrangements.

"Student Lu You, you are finally here. Please meet the other contestants before assigning dormitories."

"I have sent you the content of the training. Feel free to let me know if there are any changes that need to be made."

Then, Liao Yuan clapped his hands and gathered everyone together.

"This is Lu You, the last player in the league. You will be undergoing closed training here until the league begins."

"I will use the most stringent standards on you. After all, every detail will affect the direction of the game!"

"besides……"

"You are a team and must be familiar with each other's dueling styles. Therefore, before the training officially begins, we will have a friendly match..."

But before Liao Yuan could finish, someone suddenly interrupted:

"Then Mr. Liao Yuan, is there any punishment for losing?"

"It's a bit boring if there's no prize for the game."

Liao Yuan's face darkened when his words were interrupted. He glanced at the contestant who was speaking, but did not rebuke him. Instead, he continued:

"It's true that you can have a jackpot, but gambling with cards is definitely not allowed. I think it's better to just..."

"Let the loser clean the toilet for a month, as long as it doesn't affect the training!"

After hearing Liao Yuan's words, everyone's faces suddenly looked a little strange.

The contestant who had just spoken was visibly excited, as if he was waiting to see some fun.

pop-

"Then let's start the friendly match now."

"Including today, it's exactly one month."

After saying that, Liao Yuan adjusted the device in his hand, replaced the plan with a lottery system, and then drew 2 people from the group to have a friendly duel.

Coincidentally, the contestant who just spoke was picked.

"I?"

"Hey, alright! Since I'm the one who suggested it, then I'll just be a teacher. Who's the opponent?"

The next moment, Lu You's name appeared on the other side.

Everyone's attention was immediately focused on Lu You.

Having a friendly match as soon as you arrive?
This first grader is really unlucky.

But Lu You suddenly smiled. He opened the suitcase in front of everyone. With a rustling sound, a large number of card boxes fell out, all of which were full of cards.

Each box is a deck of cards.

The others were stunned for a moment.

Lu You slowly took out the duel disk and a deck of cards, then walked to the duel arena, ready to have an in-depth exchange of friendship.

This……

The student who made the proposal hesitated for a moment, but still walked forward and stood opposite Lu You.

What's the use of having more decks?

Today I will teach this junior fellow student that quality is more important than quantity!

drop--

Then, the game start signal sounded, and Lu You subconsciously drew a card and shouted at the same time as his opponent:

"duel!"
