Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds: Duelists Beyond Light

Chapter 78 Speed ​​77 Soul and Spirit
The soul and mental power can be considered the same category to a certain extent, but the terms are different.

Three thousand years ago in ancient Egypt, the energy consumed by priests to summon monsters was called "soul." In layman's terms, it was essentially a combination of life and mana. With soul, one could summon the monsters sealed within the stone slabs. If the soul was completely exhausted, the priest would die...

Three thousand years later, in the modern world, the soul has been replaced by a concept called "spiritual power".

Mental power, like elves, affects the performance of duelists in a duel.

Relying on the bond with the elves, duelists can draw cards related to the elves at critical moments. For example, in the tenth generation of Yuki, his bond with the disrupting monsters is very deep, so he can easily use the magic card Disrupting Triangle Hurricane or the monster card Disrupting Yellow. However, if it is an XYZ monster without any elves, he has no way to guarantee the probability of drawing it.

But psychic power is different. It can affect any card in the deck, regardless of whether it has the energy of a spirit attached to it.

At the end of Yugi Muto's time, there was a battle known as the Ritual of Duel. The Pharaoh, whose soul had been wandering for three thousand years, had reached the point in that battle where he could perfectly predict every card. The reason for this was that his mental strength had reached an unprecedentedly strong state.

If a duelist possesses inexhaustible spiritual power, then every card draw can be a miracle!

The power of the elves is based on the connection between the duelist and the elves.

Mental strength is related to many factors such as the duelist's beliefs, physical and mental state, etc.

Mr. Sengzheng's words have made it very clear. Since the tenth generation of Yujo, the Jibingliu Gym has mainly relied on the power of elves. Only with the recognition of the guardian dragon can it control the ice barrier cards based on the sealing secret technique.

If you violate this rule and forcefully use the Ice Barrier deck, the duelist's mental strength will be exhausted, and in the end, they may completely lose the ability to duel. In the most intuitive sense, they may be stuck...

"So... you mean... I'm not someone who can communicate with elves?" You Qing couldn't help but ask.

He had never encountered any guardian dragon, so this was the only thing Mr. Sengzheng could sigh about.

As expected, the abbot nodded helplessly.

You Qing pressed on, "Since I've already used the Ice Barrier Dragon, Light Spear Dragon, so many times, doesn't that mean I've already..."

The monk said, "Logically, your mental strength should have declined since I first met you, since you used the Ice Barrier Dragon, Light Spear Dragon, several times. However, strangely, your mental strength doesn't seem to be affected at all, as if it was offset by some force."

You Qing was stunned.

He recalled the red dragon mark on his arm that night.

Could it be... that power is the red dragon? !
The monk continued, "There are spirits within your deck, and they often try to communicate with you, but unfortunately, you can't sense their presence... Similarly, even if the Guardian Dragon wanted to grant you the ability to control the Ice Flow Deck, it can't do so because it can't communicate with you."

You Qing fell silent.

He didn't expect that as a time traveler, he didn't even have the most basic ability to communicate with elves.

I think that in those duels, being able to draw the Magic Strikers and the Quick Attack Wrench Knight at the critical moment was already the greatest effort of the two small card elves. If my talent was higher, I am afraid that the previous duels would have been much easier.

"It's okay, Mr. Sengzheng!" But You Qing was not discouraged. "When I first started practicing racing, people often said I had no talent. But I believe that some things can't be stopped by simply saying 'talent'."

"I believe nothing is impossible in this world."

"As long as I persist in the duel, a miracle will happen one day." "The elves are calling me, and I will do my best to answer their call!!"

You Qing's words reminded Seng Zheng of another child who was also not very talented but extremely persistent.

perhaps……

If Tianguang Wulan had been allowed to duel earlier...

Has he become a duelist capable of standing on his own?
The two chatted for a while. Knowing You Qing's fatigue and situation, the monk let him rest in the guest room.

Lying on the couch emitting a faint incense, You Qing fell asleep quickly after staying up all night, but he did not rest for too long. At noon, he woke up in the guest room of the Jibingliu Gym and had lunch with Mr. Sengzheng and Tianguang Wulan. The mysterious gym master never showed up, and it seemed that he was not well yet, so he had to continue staying in bed.

At the dinner table, Sengzheng and Tianguang Wulan told Youqing everything that had happened before, including everything that Youqing had experienced when he first crossed over—awakening from the fire, being inexplicably accused of bombing, the disappearance of the D-round he had accidentally obtained, and so on...

You Qing knew that most of these things were done out of helplessness. Even if Tianguang Wulan really caused him some trouble, he would not care about it for the sake of Mr. Sengzheng.

It was almost afternoon when we left the Jibingliu Gym.

After last night's heavy rain, the sun in the satellite area was particularly scorching today. Even the thick smoke from the factories filled the sky, which could not block the dazzling sunlight.

Riding on the D wheel at the door, You Qing felt indescribably relaxed. The aromatherapy lighted in the guest room was magical. He had only rested for a few hours, but now he was full of energy.

You Qing looked down at the time and it was almost time to go to Chiyan Lingshi.

He was actually a little worried.

After all, Chiyan Lingshi and Hongwu Jueren are from the same faction. Hongwu Jueren is probably now searching for Dickade's whereabouts. It may not be a good idea for him to go and see Chiyan Lingshi like this.

Riding his D-wheel bike and stopping on the side of the road, You Qing was thinking about what to do next.

There were still a few days left until the High-Speed ​​Duel Tournament, and he needed to plan his schedule for those days...

Satellite District Hospital, independent ward.

The seriously injured Niu Weizhe opened his eyes. His forehead and arms were covered with bandages, and his right leg was in a cast.

As soon as the security guard next to him saw him wake up, he reported the information. Soon a call came in. It was the director of the Public Security Administration Bureau. He was very dissatisfied with Niu Weizhe's sudden action last night, and his words were full of blame and abuse.

Niu Weizhe listened with a gloomy expression.

The director and the deputy director are birds of a feather. The underground duel arena destroyed last night has a chain of interests with the director, so he was furious with Niu Weizhe who acted on his own.

On the phone, the chief revoked Sheriff Niu Weizhe's status as a peace officer and demoted him to the lowest level of security officer.

But Niu Weizhe just looked out the window indifferently, thinking about the heavy rain last night, and said lightly: "Okay, whatever..."
