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

He raised his right hand and swiftly drew the initial five starting cards from the top of the deck.

"My turn!"

With a sharp look in his eyes, You Yang slammed one of the cards heavily into the magic trap zone as soon as he made his move!

"I activate the Normal Spell Card directly from my hand—[Gold Goblin]!"

"This card's effect is very simple: draw 1 card from your deck."

"After that, in return, the other party returned 1000 base points."

As the phantom of a magic card lit up on the field, Youyang placed his finger above the deck and decisively drew a card.

At the same time, a vibrant green light descended upon Gu Qingyuan, nourishing his maximum health.

[Gu Qingyuan: LP 8000→ 9000]

Seeing his health points increase instead of decrease, Gu Qingyuan raised an eyebrow slightly, a playful smile of interest appearing on his ordinary face.

"Oh?"

"What? In this second game, you're not planning to continue with that aggressive, blood-draining strategy?"

Faced with Gu Qingyuan's clearly mocking provocation, You Yang's expression remained unwavering. He completely ignored the other party's verbal interference and decisively played the second card in his hand.

"I activate the Field Spell Card from my hand—[Daredevil Race]!"

Boom!

As the magic card took effect, a phantom image of a barren, earthy-yellow floating island rose directly from beneath You Yang's feet.

Beside You Yang, a massive, crimson-skinned, and terrifyingly ferocious ancient demon slowly emerged.

However, this seemingly terrifying demon now resembled a wronged child, appearing incredibly obedient and cowering timidly to the side.

If you look closely, you can even see large tears streaming down the face of that ugly demon, creating a comical contrast.

You Yang didn't even look at the evil spirit beside him, and coldly gave the order.

"I activate the Field Effect of the Field Spell Card [Dare to Race]!"

"Each player may, once per turn, during their main phase, pay a total of 1000 life points to choose one of the following three effects to activate."

"Furthermore, neither side can use this effect to chain together any spell, trap, or monster effects."

The three options are:

"● Draw 1 card from your deck."

"●Destroy this Field Spell Card directly."

"● Get the other party to reply with 1000 base points."

You Yang lightly tapped his finger in mid-air, and as a cluster of eerie blue flames drained life force from his body, he loudly proclaimed:

"I choose to pay 1000 life points to execute the first effect—draw a card from my deck!"

The crimson demon's massive maw suddenly opened in the void, tearing a large chunk out of this invisible space with a teeth-grinding tearing sound!

Thick, bright yellow lightning bolts exploded in mid-air like wildly dancing silver snakes, crackling and popping loudly.

This domineering force of the price instantly backfired, turning into a piercing pain that swept over You Yang's entire body.

[Youyang: LP 8000 → 7000]

Despite enduring the reduction in health points, You Yang didn't even flinch.

Using the energy fluctuation as cover, his finger swept across the deck in a sharp afterimage, decisively drawing a card.

With a cold gaze sweeping over the card he had just drawn, You Yang didn't hesitate at all before slamming it heavily onto the monster zone of the Duel Disk!

"I will perform a normal summon of the [Treasure Hunting Panda] in my hand!"

As a cloud of white exploration smoke dissipated, a panda dressed in a full set of retro adventure clothes and carrying a bulging backpack leaped out of the void and landed steadily on Youyang's field.

【Treasure-Hunting Panda】【★4】【Earth/Beast】【Attack: 1100 / Defense: 2000】

"I'll activate the monster effect of [Treasure Panda] immediately!"

You Yang raised his right arm high and loudly proclaimed,

"You can activate this effect by banishing up to 3 Spell/Trap Cards from your Graveyard in face-down position."

Special Summon 1 Normal Monster of the same Level as the number of cards banished from your Deck!

You Yang's fingers flew across the graveyard: "I banish the Spell Card I just used in the graveyard—[Gold Goblin]—as the price!"

Special Summon the Normal Monster "Infernal Guardian Dragon" from your Deck!

Upon hearing its master's command, the Treasure-Hunting Panda on the field stretched out its furry paws and deftly flicked a coin high into the air.

Just as the coin flipped, a dim stream of light shot out from Youyang's grave pit and vanished completely.

At the same time, a scorching pillar of fire suddenly shot up in the dueling arena without warning!

The flames swelled in the wind and burned even more fiercely.

With a deep dragon roar, a giant steel dragon, its body covered in thick blue metallic armor, suddenly tore through the sea of ​​fire and stomped heavily on the scorched earth!

【Infernal Guardian Dragon】【★1】【Fire/Adjustment/Dragon】【Attack: 100 / Defense: 2000】

"Adjusting monsters?"

"Could it be... that the main tactic this time is Synchro Summoning?"

A glint of light flashed in the eyes of Tiandao Lian, who was watching the battle from a distance.

He had personally experienced the devastating power of the Yu Yang Synchro deck!

Upon seeing the appearance of this modifier monster, he immediately made a guess.

However, You Yang's face remained as still as a stagnant pool, offering no response to the Heavenly Lotus's speculation behind him.

He drew another card from his hand and slammed it into the Spell & Trap Gauge on the Duel Disk with a whooshing sound.

"I activate the Normal Spell Card directly from my hand—[The Price of the Horsebone]!"

"You can activate this ability by sending 1 face-up monster you control, other than an Effect Monster, to the Graveyard as a cost."

"Draw two cards from your deck."

You Yang's face was as cold as iron as he pointed directly at the giant dragon that had just appeared:

"I send my Normal Monster [Infernal Guardian Dragon] to the Graveyard, and draw two cards from my Deck!"

The phantom of the magic card materialized in mid-air, and a huge, pale white skeleton appeared out of thin air, opening its empty jaws and instantly swallowing the still-burning blue-armored dragon whole!

With this sacrifice as a price, Youyang ruthlessly drew two more cards from the top of the deck.

"I see, it's just for filtration..."

After understanding You Yang's true tactical intentions, Tian Dao Lian couldn't help but reveal a hint of disappointment in her voice.

He had thought that he would be able to witness You Yang activate the earth-shattering divine power of the [Red Dragon] again in this desperate situation, but he did not expect it to be a seemingly ordinary card-drawing chain.

"With my graveyard accumulating more Spell Cards, I'm activating the effect of the [Treasure Panda] monster on the field once again!"

Chapter 330 Filtering and Synchro Synchro! Descend! Ancient Fairy Dragon!

You Yang pointed to the cemetery with his fingertip and continued:

"I will exclude the inside of the 'Consideration for the Horse Bones' in the cemetery!"

"Special Summon the sealed limb from the deck—[The Sealed One's Right Arm]!"

As an ancient and sacred golden light faintly illuminated the field, a right arm, tightly bound by heavy golden chains and bearing the marks of countless years, forcefully broke free from the void and silently hovered above Youyang's battle line.

[The Sealed One's Right Arm] [★1] [Dark/Mage Race] [Attack: 200 / Defense: 300]

You Yang didn't even glance at the severed arm, and immediately played the card he had just drawn.

"Next, I activate the Spell Card once again—[Gold Goblin]!"

"I'll draw one more card from my deck!"

As the card fell into You Yang's hands, the green healing light once again enveloped Gu Qingyuan on the opposite side.

[Gu Qingyuan: LP 9000→ 10000]

"Ten thousand health points..."

Hiding behind, the twins watched as Gu Qingyuan's health reached five digits, and couldn't help but hug each other and whisper softly, their eyes filled with unease.

The more health the opponent had, the colder and more piercing You Yang's eyes became.

"At this moment, I activate the effect of [Treasure-Hunting Panda] for the third time!"

"Special Summon a second [Infernal Guardian Dragon] from your Deck!"

The raging flames soared into the sky once more in the dueling arena!

Accompanied by a deep dragon roar, the [Infernal Guardian Dragon], clad in heavy blue armor, reappeared fiercely on Youyang's field once again, like an inextinguishable flame!

【Infernal Guardian Dragon】【★1】【Fire/Adjustment/Dragon】【Attack: 100 / Defense: 2000】

"Next, I activate the Equip Spell Card from my hand—[Magic Wand]!"

"This card can only be equipped to Spellcaster monsters, and it will forcibly increase the equipped monster's ATK by 500."

"I equip it to the right arm of the sealed one on the field!"

With the flickering of the phantom of the magic card, an exquisite magic wand emitting a bright green glow appeared out of thin air and was forcefully grasped in the hand of that withered, severed arm.

This scene looked incredibly bizarre and out of place on the battlefield filled with deathly aura.

[The Sealed One's Right Wrist] [Attack Power: 200 → 500 / Defense Power: 300]

"What's the point of making this pointless struggle?"

Gu Qingyuan slightly raised his chin, his eyes filled with undisguised contempt and mockery.

For him, let alone just increasing his attack power by 500 points, even if it were forcibly increased by 5,000 points, he wouldn't care at all.

"That's its significance!"

You Yang snorted coldly and pressed his finger sharply against the duel disk. "I'm activating another hidden effect of the [Magic Wand]!"
