Yu-Gi-Oh!: Worldwide Mix, the Ultimate Necromancer Duel

In this parallel world, the timeline has been disrupted, and many plots that should have been clearly distinct are now mixed together.

But some landmark events still emerge along a kind of fateful trajectory.

The images on the screen did not disappear; instead, they switched to a promotional video that played on a loop.

The magnificent aerial footage swept across the entire Domino, finally settling on a huge dueling arena.

[Duel City Tournament - Preliminary Rounds]

Prize money for the winner: ten million.

Special Reward: Rare Limited Card Pack!

The surrounding duelists erupted in uproar.

"Holy crap, the Duel City Tournament?!"

"A ten million yuan bonus?! My god, with this money, I'll never have to work again for the rest of my life!"

"It's not just money, it's also rare limited-edition card packs from the Haima Group! These are of immeasurable value."

How do I get into the preliminary rounds? Do I have to start by grinding for arena points?

"It's still early, three months is plenty of time for us to prepare!"

"Besides, this isn't anything new, and you're only just finding out?"

"President Kaiba announced this two weeks ago; didn't you see it was being played on a loop?"

"Really? I didn't know?"

You Chen gently pressed the card deck he had just put away into the inner compartment of his backpack and looked away from the big screen.

Ten million?!

"Wow, this is way faster than robbing a bank," he muttered to himself. "Not only is it legal, it's safe too."

For him now, this is not just a prize, but also capital, resources, and a ticket to enter a higher level of this world.

But that's three months from now; we can think about it again in three months.

The most important thing right now is to turn that lone star on the ID card into three.

He turned and strode toward the arena in Zone B.

However, before they had taken more than a few steps, the crowd behind them suddenly erupted into a frenzy, like water churning with stones thrown in.

"Wow—that over there! Isn't that the All-Day Competition Champion Insect Moth?!"

"Holy crap, it really is him! What's he doing at the Seahorse Stadium?"

"Are there any high-level matches happening here today? I haven't heard of any..."

You Chen stopped in his tracks.

He turned around.

The originally crowded main entrance was now parting to both sides with an almost ritualistic tacit understanding.

At the end of the gap, a slender figure was slowly walking in.

A green hooded jacket, and those long, sharp eyes with a certain sinister shrewdness.

Insects, feathered moths.

You Chen squinted.

How long has it been? I just ran into Asuka Tenjouin a few days ago, and now I've encountered an insect called Yumo.

Just as You Chen's gaze fell upon the other party, Yu'e's eyes, which habitually scanned the entire scene, also accurately caught him.

Or rather, they spotted the door behind him.

Above the entrance to Arena B, a cool white electronic screen quietly displays red characters:

[Advanced Level Challenge Channel - Reservation No. 0352]

Challenger: You Chen (★)

Matching opponents: Connecting

Expected start time: 09:00

Their gazes briefly met in the air.

You Chen didn't linger; he turned and continued walking towards the entrance.

Behind her, Yu'e's slender eyebrows were slightly raised, and the corners of her mouth curved into an ambiguous smile.

"interesting……"

He muttered something under his breath, his voice so soft it was almost drowned out by the surrounding noise.

---

The entrance passage to Area B of the arena was longer than expected.

You Chen walked along this corridor, which was almost cold due to the cold white lights. On both sides were frosted glass partitions, and he could vaguely hear the sound of cards being slapped and the cheers of the audience coming from the next venue.

His footsteps echoed in the empty corridor, one after another.

The electronic screen at the entrance refreshes automatically as he approaches.

[Challenge to Higher Levels - 0352]

The challenger has arrived.

Matchup confirmed

Once both sides enter the duel area

The matchmaking system at the Seahorse Arena is completed at night. The moment he hung up the phone last night, the system had already been filtering suitable opponents for him from its vast database of duelists.

However, you won't know who your opponent is until you arrive at the dueling arena and the wall opens.

Prior to this, neither side knew anything about their opponent.

You Chen stood in front of the partition wall and raised his hand to adjust the duel disk on his wrist.

The partition wall is a thick alloy structure with two separate sections, and it is now tightly closed.

Only when both teams are in position and the central control system confirms that the field is correct will the wall slowly slide open to both sides.

You Chen was not in a hurry.

He leaned against the wall, closing his eyes to rest.

About three minutes later, a emotionless electronic female voice came from the overhead loudspeaker:

"Area B - Challenge for Higher Levels: Both players are in position. The duel area will open soon."

"Both players, please maintain your positions and be careful."

"3——"

"2——"

"1——"

Rumbling--

A heavy mechanical creak came from deep within the wall, and the metal partition that separated him from his unknown adversary began to slowly and irresistibly slide to the sides.

The cool white light seeped in through the gap, growing wider and wider.

The first thing that catches the eye is that familiar short figure from before.

You Chen's eyelid twitched.

The partition wall was completely open.

Two figures faced each other across the standard dueling arena.

Insects, feathered moths.

You Chen raised an eyebrow.

Good guy.

I just saw it, and then I ran into it?

At the same time, in the central hall of the Seahorse Arena.

A giant matrix of hundreds of high-definition monitoring screens is displaying live footage of the duels in various venues.

This is the core area where the audience gathers, and the highlights of each match are magnified, tracked, and explained here.

At this moment, almost everyone's eyes are fixed on the same screen.

Because they spotted the insect, the feathered moth!

After all, a player who wins the all-day championship already has a certain reputation.

It has become the focus of most people's attention.

So when they saw the insect, the feathered moth, they rushed over immediately.

"Found it, the insect-like feathered moth! It's here!"

"That guy over there is so unlucky! He ran into the all-day champion."

"Hilarious! What's so unlucky about it? Didn't you guys see clearly? This guy is a one-star duelist!"

"A one-star duelist trying to advance to three stars? Isn't that just wishful thinking? Hahaha!"

"Holy crap, I just realized, whose subordinate is this incredibly brave?"

"Another expert?! This is truly incredible! A one-star duelist coming to challenge someone of a higher level?"

"So there's nothing to be unlucky about; you're going to lose no matter what."

"Yeah, there are all sorts of people these days. One star wants to jump straight to three? What does he think dueling is? Playing house?"

A cacophony of voices rose and fell in the hall. Some shook their heads, some sneered, and some had grown tired of watching and turned to find more interesting matches.

At that moment, Yugi Muto, Katsuya Jonouchi, and Kyoko Masaki were also in the crowd.

The first one to grit his teeth and clench his fist was the one in the castle.

"Damn it!! It's that stinky bug!"

"The thought of him throwing the game cartridges into the sea makes me want to punch that jerk!"
