Yu-Gi-Oh!: This card wants to go to you.

[The Witch's Strike] was preserved thanks to Immy's strong insistence.

After this selection, there are 120 cards left, from which 40 can be chosen.

As cards were eliminated one by one, the arguments among the crowd grew louder and more chaotic.

"The [Ice Water] series of cards needs to be linked with the water attribute, which has usage restrictions. Should we remove them?"

"no no no!"

"Don't exclude my partners, trust them, okay?"

"That [Diviner Princess] ritual requires sacrificing a total of 9-star monsters. With such a huge sacrifice, it's very difficult to use it."

"Why didn't you eliminate her first..."

"No! [Light Priestess] has 2700 attack power! She can also set the opponent's monsters, she's really strong!"

"If you ask me, we should eliminate [Heavenly Might] first. The Seven-Star Monster only has 1500-1600 attack power..."

"Bullshit! My [Great Coiled Dragon] can clear an opponent's card!"

"But [Datong Panlong] requires a [monster other than its effect] on the field to activate its effect. I can't just use a lot of monsters with no effect just for this effect..."

"You have the nerve to say that? I don't even know what the point of those [Tokens] you Special Summon with [Sword and Shield] are. Their attack power is low, and they don't weaken the opponent's strength..."

After a brief explanation of the rules, most people's attention was drawn to the [Attack Power], as if it were the most reliable data. [Bai] couldn't explain why, but he felt that they were being unfair.

In comparison, the junior shop manager seemed much more professional.

He picked up the cards from the "Swordsman" and "Heavenly Might" series, fell into deep thought, and prepared to eliminate one of them.

The woman in white and the naked man panicked and tried to persuade her in various ways.

"The swordsman is very strong!"

"The Heavenly Dragon is the strongest!"

[Bai] glanced back and forth, then suddenly noticed something. It felt as if an electric current had passed through his body, sending a shiver down his spine, and his voice trembled.

"You, you guys are saying... do the [Tokens] Special Summoned by [Sword of the Axe] count as... monsters that aren't affected by effects? Can they help trigger the effect of [Heavenly Might]?"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone fell silent and stared in astonishment.

They stood there, stunned, their young minds flashing through a vast array of knowledge—astronomy, geography, love, hate, and grudges—before finally giving up and blurting out:

"I think it's okay."

Me too.

Immy was slightly taken aback and exclaimed, "You can play it like that?"

A simple question elevated everyone's understanding of the game to a new level.

Based on this simple combination (Kondratiev wave), further filtering leaves seventy cards.

The problem is coming again.

The remaining cards have various abilities: some can destroy the opponent's cards, while others can increase attack power... they all seem quite useful.

It's getting a bit too tough to remove.

But time waits for no one...

"Everyone..." Just as everyone was hesitating, [Bai] suddenly spoke up, "It sounds a bit crazy, but I need to take a nap now. If I don't wake up in 10 minutes, then wake me up."

After saying that, amidst everyone's puzzled expressions, he sat down next to Filina again, slowly closed his eyes, clasped his hands together, and prayed frantically in his heart.

"Please, please... let me see him one more time..."

"Wow—"

The soul traveled through time again, arriving directly at the Sanbai Chess and Card Room.

"There's a ghost!!!"

"Meow!!!"

Xiao Luo Bai scooped up Teacher Tony in one swift motion, and the two of them let out a bloodcurdling scream.

"Holy crap!" The card players dueling inside the shop were startled and took a deep breath, saying, "Young manager? What's going on? What the hell?"

Chapter 119 The First Duel (Part 8)

"You, you can't see it?" Xiao Luobai pointed at a ball of air, looking quite frightened.

From his perspective, this "new guest" first vanished in a flash, then suddenly returned, which was rather frightening, and also rather frightening for the cat.

The card dealers in the shop were even more puzzled. A bespectacled man, who clearly suspected that Xiao Luobai had mental problems, patted him on the shoulder and asked, "Young shopkeeper, C1 Strange Effect, C2 Bubble, C3 Moon Book, C4 One Drop."

Will the strange effect of C1 be approved?

This is a famous question among the card players in the shop, used to distinguish between ordinary players and high-level players.

"Huh?" Xiao Luobai was taken aback at first, then pondered for a moment in a daze before saying, "It probably won't pass..."

"That's it," the bespectacled man sighed. "You even got this wrong? Shopkeeper, you've been playing duel disks all day, you must be a little dazed. Why don't you take a break?"

The onlookers, with expressions of pity that suggested he'd been playing Yu-Gi-Oh!, glanced at Xiao Luo Bai before returning to their seats to play cards.

Bai glanced at the clock in the shop and realized that less than half a minute had passed. Knowing that time flowed slowly in this "dream," he didn't rush to explain when he saw Xiao Luo Bai looking so frightened.

I don't know how much time has passed.

Xiao Luobai finally mustered up her courage again, walked forward blankly, and tried to grab the [ghost], but as expected, she missed.

However, this time he came up with a cool and romantic explanation.

"You are another version of me!"

Xiao Luobai exclaimed in surprise, thinking of Yugi Muto from the anime.

“It’s hard for me to explain right now.” [Bai] glanced at the wall clock, a hint of anxiety appearing on his face. “Could you give me some advice?”

"I have some cards, but I don't know how to build a deck..."

"Did you bring the reference card?" Xiao Luobai asked.

When giving deck building advice, you should at least provide a range of options.

"I can't bring them all, but I've memorized the card names," [Bai] said truthfully.

Xiao Luobai was clearly stunned for a moment, unsure of what expression to make, but he felt that Luobai was incredibly awesome.

Soon, the two arrived at the shopkeeper's desktop, opened the [YGO] client - deck builder, and placed the seventy cards that [White] had memorized into the main deck and side deck.

An obvious problem immediately emerged.

"Then, where's the terminal?" Xiao Luo asked, startled.

Seventy cards, not a single extra, not even an Amalgam, let alone Synchro, Xyz, or Link.

“No…” [Bai] lowered his head dejectedly, looking somewhat embarrassed. “This…this is all the cards we have. Apart from that, they are all Level 1 and 2 Normal Monsters.”

"This is a bit difficult..." Xiao Luobai also looked troubled.

Without a terminal, there is no output.

He thought for a moment, then stood up and waved towards the store lobby, shouting, "Kami, Lightning, come and help me take a look at my deck!"

"Ok?"

"What's the matter?"

Two men approached the shopkeeper's counter with questions in their eyes. They were two of the more professional duelists in the shop; Kami and Lightning were nicknames for duelists.

After some explanation...

"Sure, it'll be a bit challenging."

"Little shopkeeper, have you been having a tough time lately? If you don't upgrade to a rare item, the mini-program [Chixiao] is only one yuan, and [Chengying] is only twenty-five yuan."

It's really hard to understand; what kind of family can't even get a terminal?

"Hey, don't worry about that for now, help me figure out how to assemble it." Xiao Luo glanced around furtively. "Once it's done, I'll secretly open an enhancement pack for you guys."

A sharp glint flashed across their expressions.

"I'll give you the optimal solution in thirty minutes."

"First up are [Magic Warrior Destroyer] and [Destiny Lady Wendy]... I've already summoned them..."

"【Rank Reduction】, 【Sandwich】...the card effects are too weak..."

"【Chun Jun】? Who is that?"

"Without a terminal, I'll have to stick with [Spellcaster] as my main DPS, and go for a mixed 3/6 and 4/5 rotation..."

[Bai] stood there blankly, not understanding many of the technical terms, but even so, these people always gave him a strange sense of trust, which was incomparable to the bunch of oddballs in the snake cave.

"Hey, hey, hey." Little Luo waved his hand in front of [Bai] and said, "Didn't you say you were going to teach me how to build a Duel Disk?"

Children remember agreements very well.

“Oh...right, sorry, I almost forgot,” [Bai] said in a low voice.

Seeing his guilty look, Xiao Luobai quickly waved her hand to comfort him: "It's okay, it's okay. Here, this is the design blueprint for the Duel Disk, hehe."

He patiently turned the pages of the blueprints one by one in front of [Bai]...

"Hmm...it's not difficult. First, assemble the [Graveyard Block], then..." [Bai] glanced at the design and began to explain in an organized manner.

More than an hour later.

"Holy crap, done!" Camille said, relieving his neck. "A quick test has been done, and it's the optimal solution considering [startup], [endurance], [field clearing], and [resistance]."

Lightning glanced at the final build and nodded, then looked puzzled: "It's alright, but I really can't understand this [Witch's Strike]..."

During the build process, the client's shopkeeper claimed that the "Witch's Strike" card was a must-have. The two of them didn't really understand it, but they didn't ask too many questions, since they had already received the enhancement pack.

On the other side, Xiao Luobai excitedly held up the model in her hand, her cheerful shouts filling the entire card shop: "It's assembled!!!"

Under the guidance of "another me," he painstakingly assembled the more than 800 puzzle pieces, one by one, and had never been so happy.

"You're so amazing!"

The old man wasn't lying to him; the moment he set up the duel disk, he really did meet a new friend.
