Yu-Gi-Oh!: This isn't a duel!

A man with a tall, imposing figure, wearing a black trench coat, slowly walked out of the elevator.

Long black hair, a black mask—everything about him was black.

Is this the Black King Chen Yuan?

The name sounds impressive, but it looks just average. However, the mask is quite cool.

You Yang couldn't help but feel a little regretful; he should have put on the whole mask too.

He's wanted to duel while wearing a mask for a long time.

Not only You Yang was sizing up Chen Yuan.

At this moment, Chen Yuan was also observing You Yang through the mask.

However, that look in his eyes always gave You Yang a strange feeling.

"Everyone is probably very familiar with Chen Yuan."

"In our underground dueling tournament, we boast a 99% win rate, standing head and shoulders above all others!"

"He is a powerful duelist!"

The host loudly introduced the two duelists on stage.

"As for the challenger, You Yang... well, although his dueling experience is blank, since he dares to stand on the dueling stage to challenge the Black King, he must have something extraordinary about him!"

Upon hearing the host's words, Chen Yuan's eyes flickered slightly, and his gaze grew even colder.

"Both fighters, please prepare yourselves, the duel is about to begin!"

After the host finished speaking, he immediately jumped off the duel stage and hid to the side.

On the stage, You Yang washed and cut his deck and walked to the designated duel area.

"Then, please begin."

There wasn't much conversation between them, but they both revealed their duel disks!

[The duel begins!]

[Youyang: LP8000]

[Chen Yuan: LP8000]

Looking at the falling virtual silver coins, You Yang immediately spoke.

"I choose to attack first!"

Upon hearing that You Yang had chosen to attack first, another commotion erupted on the field.

"Where did this idiot come from?"

"They actually chose to attack first."

"Didn't this guy know the terrifying power of the monster in Black King's hands before he went on stage?"

"Yes, once that monster appears, the Black King, who attacks from behind, can almost instantly kill the opponent in one turn."

"It's boring. I thought I was going to see a good show, but it turns out he's just a silly kid."

Chen Yuan's brows, hidden beneath his mask, furrowed slightly. Where did this newcomer come from?

To challenge yourself without knowing your own tactics at all—is this a newbie looking to make a name for himself?

Or is he a master strategist who's all talk and no action?

But no matter what, he has to win this duel!

After winning this game, there are only four left...

In the VIP section, Ling Shiyao gazed at Youyang's retreating figure, her eyes darting around.

Is it possible to defeat the power of the Dark Duelist?

Let me see for myself!

The duel officially begins as both players draw five cards from their decks!

You Yang looked at his hand, thought for a moment, then drew one card and inserted it into the duel disk.

"I activate the Spell Card 'Dragon's Shrine' from my hand."

"Based on its effect, I send 1 Dragon monster from my deck to the graveyard."

Chen Yuan's gaze sharpened. It was actually a Dragon deck?

In that case, wouldn't I be similar to him?

Chen Yuan thought the other side might be the former.

"I'm sending [Blue-Eyes White Dragon] from my deck to the graveyard!"

A card popped out of Youyang's deck, which he then drew and sent to the graveyard.

"At this moment, the follow-up effect of [Dragon's Temple] will be triggered. If the monster sent to the Graveyard by this effect is a Dragon-Type Normal Monster, you can send 1 more Dragon-Type monster from your Deck to the Graveyard."

"I choose to send the [Legendary White Stone] to the cemetery."

Chapter 22 My Pride! And My Soul! Blue-Eyes White Dragon!

Youyang's deck produced another card, which he also drew and sent to the graveyard.

"Then activate the effect of [Legendary White Stone] if this card is sent to the Graveyard."

Add 1 "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" from your deck to your hand.

A burst of pure white light shone in Youyang's graveyard, and a card was launched from the deck, which Youyang caught steadily.

You Yang then drew two more cards from his hand and said loudly:

"Next, I'll activate the magic card in my hand, 'Discount Shopping'!"

"Based on its effect, I can only activate this effect by discarding 1 Level 8 monster from my hand. I draw 2 cards."

"I discard the Blue-Eyes White Dragon that I just added to my hand, and draw two more cards!"

After sending the two cards in his hand to the graveyard, You Yang placed his finger on top of the deck and suddenly drew two cards.

Looking at the two cards in his hand, You Yang smiled. Here they come!

After seeing You Yang search again, the murmurs from the audience gradually subsided. This kid doesn't seem as simple as he appears!

On the field, You Yang revealed a card and continued:

"I activate the effect of [Dragon Ruler - Dragon Dictator] in my hand!"

You can activate this effect by sending 1 "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" from your hand or Deck to the Graveyard.

"Special Summon this card from your hand."

"I'll send the last card in my deck, [Blue-Eyes White Dragon], to the Graveyard and Special Summon it!"

A white light flashed, and the ruler, clad in white dragon bone armor and wielding a blue-eyed scepter, appeared on Youyang's field.

【Dragon Ruler - Dragon Dictator-】【4 Stars】

[Dark/Mage Race] [Attack: 1200 Defense: 1100]

You Yang drew one of his cards and slapped it onto the duel disk.

"I haven't performed a normal summon this turn!"

"I usually summon the [Blue-Eyed Sage] in my hand!"

A soft blue light flashed, and a young sage dressed in a blue and white robe and holding a blue gemstone staff quietly appeared.

[The Sage with Blue Eyes] [1 Star]

[Light/Adjustment/Mage Race] [Attack: 0, Defense: 1500]

Looking at the handsome sage on the field, You Yang immediately said:

"I activate the entry effect of [Blue-Eyed Sage]!"

"This card can only be activated when it is summoned."

"Add 1 Level 1 LIGHT Adjuster card, other than 'Blue-Eyed Sage,' from your deck to your hand."

"I choose to add [Ancient White Stone] to my hand!"

The sage tapped his staff lightly, pointing it at Youyang's deck.

A flash of light, and a new card was accurately guided into You Yang's hand.

You Yang revealed two more cards in his hand and said loudly:

"Then I activate the spell card 'The Talisman of Harmony' from my hand!"

As the card was inserted into the Duel Disk, an ancient, jewel-encrusted magic scroll appeared before Yu Yang.

At the center of the scroll is a mysterious pattern depicting the harmonious resonance between dragons and monsters, radiating powerful magic.

"Based on its effect, I can only activate it by discarding one Dragon Tuner with 1000 or less ATK from my hand."

"Draw two cards from your deck."

"I just added [Ancient White Stone] to my hand through the effect of [Blue-Eyed Sage], which is a Dragon-Type Tuner monster with 1000 or less ATK!"

"So I discarded it and drew two more cards!"

As You Yang drew two more cards, gasps of amazement rose from the crowd below.

In this world, it is common for duelists to carry cards that can search for and draw cards.

After all, not everyone has the means to use a card like [Pot of Greed].

But isn't You Yang's statement a bit too outrageous?

The card draws this guy uses all have specific conditions!

How come it doesn't get stuck in your hand like this?

It seems that he and his deck have a very deep bond!

Chen Yuan on the other side was also dumbfounded. Wait, is this how you pass cards?
