Duels should be played with a smile.

In the blink of an eye, Paradox's hand was empty again, and the E-version Blue-Eyes White Dragon and Stardust Dragon both appeared on the battlefield.

The six squares were completely filled, with a combined attack power of over 20,000, while the only turtle on the field had an attack power of 2200, which was just waiting to die.

"Duel King! This isn't over yet! This isn't my final showdown!"

Upon hearing this, Leyou was startled again. What else could you possibly do with this? Are you going to stack a real dragon and Sigma to create a Gundam? That's way too extravagant!

Or should we stack Blue-Eyes and Stardust to form a second cannon?

"This is an advanced technique I learned after studying Xyz Summoning in depth! Watch closely!"

"Reconstructing Hypersonic Networks!"

"Using Gustav's largest cannon as a benchmark, perform an upgraded Xyz Summon!"

"Slowly approaching from afar, your indestructible body is the best defense, and your unbreakable cannon is the best offense! Use your power to crush all enemies in my way!"

"Upgrade to Super Quantization! Rank 11! [Super Heavy Turret Train Skybreaker]!"

The train, which had vanished, knelt down and reappeared on the ground. Under the infusion of new power, the steel body of Gustav's largest cannon began to slowly deform. The previously protruding cannon barrel became more condensed, and although its length was reduced, its power was more concentrated. Several huge energy transmission pipes emerged from the fortress-like body, at the ends of which were newly added powerful cannon barrels.

After the transformation was complete, the War Terminator, which originally focused everything on that one shot, had become a war fortress capable of dominating all battlefields single-handedly.

[Earth, Tier 11, Machine Race, Attack 4000, Defense 4000]

On the gun emplacement, the most striking feature was the cannon barrel, which was several times longer than the emplacement itself. That incredibly thick barrel was the soul of this invincible railway gun.

"See that! King of Duel, I will use this incomparably powerful monster to finish you off!"

"..."

Where did this player come from? All they seem to care about is spawning big monsters?

Leyou looked at the Skybreaker Giant Love, which had high attack power but was actually useless in the current situation, thought for a moment, and then slowly said, "That's it? You want to end me with this? Then try turning on an effect?"

It's like being doused with cold water when you're in the middle of something exciting, or having someone push open the door to your room when you're feeling great; the paradoxical excitement vanishes in an instant.

The effect of "Heavy Love" can be activated by removing one Xyz Material, increasing its attack and defense by 2000 points. For each Xyz Material held, it can attack an additional monster. However, after using the attack and defense boost, it can only attack with "Heavy Love" for that turn. It has both advantages and disadvantages, but with only one monster on the field at present, the disadvantages clearly outweigh the advantages.

"Hmph! Still being stubborn even when you're about to die, just wait until I crush you!"

"Enter battle phase!"

"Wait a minute! I have a face-down card to activate before you enter the battle phase!"

There is actually a specific timeframe when the declaration enters battle. Many effects that can only be activated during the main phase can be activated at this time; otherwise, they become useless once the battle phase begins.

For example, right now.

"I activate the Quick-Play Spell Card [Intertwined Souls]!"

"This can only be activated during either player's or opponent's Main Phase. Tribute Summon 1 Mythical Beast-Type monster. At that time, you can also Tribute monsters on your opponent's field in place of monsters on your own field!"

"You were happy eating my monster, weren't you! Now it's my turn to eat yours!"

Wait, why do I say "again"?

As Leyou revealed the Winged Dragon of Ra from his hand, he saw Paradox's expression visibly crumble.

Is this the fate of Souls players? They painstakingly create a powerful monster, only to have it all eaten by the enemy?

"I release your [Sinful True Dragon] and Skybreaker Giant Love on your field, as well as my Turtle on my field, and perform a Superior Summon!"

Golden light enveloped the three monsters, and the chosen monster gloriously became the sacrifice for the descent of the strongest phantom god.

The reason for choosing the True Dragon and the Skybreaker Giant is because of their high attack power, while the reason for choosing the Turtle is to avoid the Turtle becoming a target.

After all, if the Winged Rathalos wanted to become a fighting force, it had to start struggling immediately!

"Tremble before the God! This is the God of Gods! The God of the Sun!"

"The spirits sing, the ancient power governs all things! Their life, their soul, and even their bones."

"Descend, fragrant angel! [Winged Dragon of Ra]!"

The dazzling sun shines its light upon the earth, treating everyone equally. But when someone offers a sacrifice and calls upon His true name, the sun god will also descend upon the land in the form of a winged dragon, unleashing His wrath upon His enemies.

[God - 10 Stars - Phantom Beast Race - Attack Power? - Defense Power?]

"The effect of Ra's Winged Dragon: When this card is successfully summoned, pay your Life Points to become 100 Life Points, and then increase this card's ATK and DEF by the amount paid."

"Come, Sun God! Respond to my pursuit of victory! I am willing to burn my life, just to bring me victory!"

Hearing the boss's call, the Winged Rathalos that had just logged in raised its head and cried out in acknowledgment. Then it lowered its head again, spewed out a flame that was not hot at all, lightly touched Leyou's body, and immediately withdrew it.

"This is the struggle I've made just to survive!!!"

[Leyou LP: 5500 → 100]

Winged Rathalos - Attack Power? →5400 - Defense Power? →5400

It looked like it had received an energy boost from Leyou, but in reality, it had transferred some of its own large-sized energy to recharge itself. The Winged Dragon of Ra flapped its wings and displayed its majesty as the sun god to the monster opposite it.

If the boss can use the card covered up behind him, then he can truly demonstrate his divine authority.

Unfortunately, since the Soul of Intertwines grants the user a restriction that allows them to use only one effect other than the effects of Mythical Beast-Type monsters within two turns when they Tribute the opponent's monster, Leyou is unlikely to waste this precious opportunity.

"Alright, I'm done. You can move on to the battle phase now."

"If you can defeat my Winged Dragon of Ra."

Paradox looked at the Winged Dragon of Ra, which was more powerful than all the monsters on his field, and was filled with grief and indignation.

Why didn't you use it sooner?! If you had used it earlier, I would have just opened fire and blasted you to death!

Paradox is now suffering in silence. If he had a second Gustav's Great Cannon in his deck, he would definitely find a way to blast Leyou to death, but he didn't.

Therefore, he could only watch as Leyou's last 100 LP dwindled to a mere wisp before the round ended.

Then wait to die.

That's right, it's just waiting to die.

Because he was too excited beforehand, all of his monsters were in attack stance—and the lowest attack power, Stardust Dragon, was only 2500.

"My turn is over, it's your turn."

With hands shrugged and a show of nonchalance set in, Paradox adopted a calm demeanor, attempting to make Leyou ignore the fact that victory could be achieved simply by having the Winged Dragon of Ra attack.

After all, Leyou's deck can be considered a Soul deck, and it's not uncommon for Soul players to accidentally use the wrong card when they get carried away!

He did many similar things in the future—the end result was eating meteorites and then being kicked to death, which is why he is so afraid of meteorites.

"Your rounds always take so long, let me teach you what simplicity and efficiency really mean!"

"My turn, draw a card!"

Deliberately ignoring the scene on the other side, Leyou also pretended as if he hadn't noticed that the duel could be ended immediately.

"That riddle guy over there! I drew a really good card this turn!"

"What card?" Paradox cooperated perfectly, making a shocked and somewhat doubtful expression, trying to continue to attract Leyou's attention.

You'll see it soon!

"I activate the Spell Card [Monster Resurrection]!"

"Return from the underworld! [Obelisk the Titan]!"

As emerald light shone down, the giant warrior, now empowered, paid no heed to the fact that one of his colleagues was the god of the underworld. With a single punch, he blasted open the gates of the underworld, strode out, and returned to the battlefield.

I turned my head and saw, oh, you're here too!

The Winged Dragon and the Titan nodded to each other, looked around but didn't find the Sky Dragon, so they exchanged another glance.

When we get there, we'll deal with that guy together. Both of them came to pay their respects to the new boss, how dare that kid not come?

Seeing that Leyou used that precious opportunity to activate an effect on reviving the Colossus, Paradox wore a stern face but was secretly delighted.

He can't use that quick-attack spell that covers him. If Leyou accidentally kills the wrong monster, his monsters won't all be wiped out, and he'll still have a chance to turn the tables!

Moreover, judging from Leyou's appearance, he might really want to gather the three Phantom Gods. There is a high probability that he will be overconfident and let the duel continue until the three Phantom Gods appear!

"A paradox, right?" Leyou suddenly stopped what he was doing and asked.

"what?"

"Did you just demonstrate Xyz Summoning to me? Do you think you're so great?"

Paradox sensed something was wrong and asked, "What do you mean?"

"It doesn't mean anything," Le You shook his head. "It's just that I really dislike watching people put on airs in front of me."

"so..."

"Watch closely, learn diligently, and witness firsthand what truly effective Xyz Summoning is!"

"What?!"

"Watch closely! This is how the three Egyptian God cards are used!"

"There are two monsters of the same level, they're about to attack! Paradox!"

"The summoning condition is two Level 10 monsters. I will stack [Ra the Winged Dragon] and [Obelisk the Tormentor] to construct an Xyz Network!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, this is probably the most valuable Xyz Summon in terms of materials, right?"

The Titan and the Winged Dragon of Ra exchanged a glance, shook their heads, and obediently served as Xyz material, flying into the sky.

"The first, the largest, the strongest, the simplest and most brutal, the most unparalleled train cannon—gather the power of destruction in your barrel and blast everything apart!"

"Xyz Summon! Rank 10! [Super Heavy Turret Train Gustav's Maximum Cannon]!"

The largest cannon that has appeared before, and the largest cannon that has just appeared, has appeared here again.

Seeing that Leyou had performed an Xyz Summon, Paradox's heart was hanging in the air—if Leyou stopped there, he would win, because after using Monster Reborn, Leyou could no longer fire.

However... there is another possibility, and this possibility is much more likely.

"You think you're the only one who knows how to upgrade and transform? I even included the Thunderlord in my deck, do you think I didn't include the Skybreaker Giant Love?"

"I will use Gustav's largest cannon as a benchmark for an upgraded Xyz Summon!"

"Now it's my turn to teach you how to drive a dump truck!"

"Upgrade to Super Quantization! Rank 11! [Super Heavy Turret Train Skybreaker]!"

Potian Juai appeared on the field once again, but this time, he was on Leyou's side.
