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

Zhou Jiaping had a furrowed brow and slight dark circles under his eyes, as if he hadn't slept well all night.

"I'll go and ask the dean for instructions," he said with a deep sigh.

The other team members began to complain: "Why did the league fire the coach at this time? Even if..."

The sentence, "Even if there is a mistake, it should be judged after the game," was not uttered before being interrupted by the sound of a door being pushed open.

"Click—"

"Uh—" Faced with a barrage of gazes, Luo Bai stammered, "I knocked, but no one answered, so... I came in first."

"A new team member?" Everyone was stunned and even more confused.

Recruiting new players so close to the start of the competition is unwise, as there is no time for them to gel as a team.

"Did you pass the dean's interview?" Captain Zhou Jiaping asked.

Luo Bai glanced left and right, then nodded blankly and said, "Uh—yes."

"I guess it's considered approved. I was recommended by her."

“Well…” Zhou Jiaping looked even more worried. After thinking for a moment, he called out to someone not far away, “Binair, show the new recruits around. I need to talk to the dean.”

"Alright!" A clear, girlish voice rang out from not far away.

Yu Chengbinai ran over excitedly, but her smile froze the moment she saw Luo Bai: "What, it's you?"

"Pah! Pretty boy!"

"..." Luo Bai was speechless.

I have a feeling there's some misunderstanding.

"Come here!" Binel shouted in a seductive voice, "Let's have a match at the Guidance Bureau and see how strong you are."

As he spoke, he dragged Luo Bai away from the crowd and led him to a mechanical dueling table, attracting many team members to watch.

"Let me tell you, a duel is about strength!" Binel instructed like a seasoned veteran, her words carrying a warning, "Don't think that just because you're handsome you can get in through the dean's connections..."

"No matter which path you're from."

"The Dean's personal attendant..."

"It can only be me, Youcheng—Binail!"

"Snapped--"

She slammed her deck down, unleashing an astonishing aura.

"Come on, newbie, bet your status as my underling!"

Bina was radiating a chilling aura, which stunned Luo Bai, leaving him momentarily speechless.

"Uh—" Luo Bai said, recovering his senses, "Sure."

After saying that, he took out the [Cursed Eye] deck that he had perfected the night before from the supercomputing ring and shuffled it on the duel table.

"Don't say I'm bullying the newbie," Binel said haughtily. "I'll let you get away with it twice!"

She glared at Luo Bai and set her card count to [1] on the display screen in the center of the dueling table.

"One Kacha will suffice to deal with you."

"Hmph, let me show you the intelligence network of a veteran!"

...

Three minutes later.

"Effect destroyed [Valkyrie Elda]." Luo Bai said calmly, "[Sariel]'s attack power increased to 4600, with increased resistance to 'Might', immune to 'Battle Break', and can attack directly upon entering Battle Rank."

"Excuse me... are there any chain stores?"

Bina and the people behind her were struck dumb, their eyes wide open, speechless.

Like an old black and white television.

It can't connect. It can't connect.

...

...

Struggle progress: 30/30!

"Ah—it really did it!"

I originally thought that completing the reading target would get me the "Spark Award," and I wanted to try to update twice a day for the 1200 yuan prize. But halfway through, I found out that fanfiction doesn't give out Spark Awards, but I had already made a promise.

They were forced to struggle for the full thirty days.

Next month, in principle, will be a single update.

[Gifts totaling 100 will unlock a double update tomorrow]

(13,000 followers, less than one cent per person)

A progress bar will be attached at the end of the chapter.

Double update progress for day 2: 99.9% (Thanks to the two big bosses today)

Chapter 236 Onboarding Duel (1)

"4600 ATK [Sariel] direct attack, is there a chain effect?"

Luo Bai waved to the stunned crowd.

"Open the card quickly!" Jiang Shu was the first to come to her senses and urged Binaier.

Binael snapped back to reality, her gaze sweeping over her three backrow cards as she said, "Activate face-down cards—"

"【Divine Protective Shield - Reflective Mirror Force】!"

Divine Shield - Reflecting Mirror Force

"Destroy all face-up Attack Position monsters on your opponent's field!"

“But…” Luo Bai raised an eyebrow and smiled, “The effect of [Sariel] equipped with [The Curse Eye of Taiyin] will not be destroyed.”

“My chain isn’t over yet!” Binel shouted, flipping over another card. “Chain C2 [Whirlwind].”

"Destroy the [Curse Eye of Taiyin]!"

"That removes the resistance to [Sariel]!"

“Not bad.” Luo Bai nodded slightly and opened a face-down card as well. “Chain with C3 Counter Trap [Eye of Judgment].

"Invalidates and destroys [Whirlwind]."

"Hmph!" Binel chuckled smugly, "I'm still a cut above the rest!"

"Chain activation of the Counter Trap [Counter-Check] negates [Judgment Eye] and returns it to the deck!"

"You've run out of cards to follow up with, I've won this chain, hehehe!"

"Indeed," Luo Bai said with a faint smile, "I really can't keep up with C5, but..."

As he spoke, he sent [Judgment] to the graveyard, instead of returning it to the deck as described for [Reverse Investigation].

The AI ​​referee did not issue any warnings about the violation.

"W-what's going on?" Binel scratched her head in confusion.

“When the [Cursed Eye of the Moon] is present in your own spell zone,” Luo Bai explained, “the activation and effect of the [Cursed Eye of Judgment] will not be nullified.”

"Even if God comes, He cannot stop the judgment."

“This…” Binel was speechless for a moment, and looked around in a panic, but there was nothing that could be activated.

Effect processing: [Reverse lookup] empty, [Conviction] invalid [Whirlwind].

【Sariel】attacked directly while protected by 【Holy Shield】, displaying a similar imposing presence to 【Colossus】.

"Click—"

The red team's field erupts with a shattering effect, the mascot withers, and the light gradually dims.

Red team LP: 4000-0

The guidance bureau generally does not have pain detection devices and is more of a social networking device.

The winner takes all.

[Blue Side]

"Does anyone else need guidance?" Luo Bai looked up at the crowd, without a hint of mockery.

He genuinely wanted to play a few more rounds with them.

Firstly, I wanted to get a feel for it, and secondly, it was really fun.

The game at the card table almost made him feel like he was back on Earth, giving him a relaxed and comfortable feeling.

There's no need to worry about losing anything or your personal safety; it's just pure card playing.

It just feels like... there might be some misunderstanding...

"I refuse to accept this!" Binel held her breath, and it was clear she was about to cry.

"Again!"

"bo3!"

bo3 means best of three games.

"Sure," Luo Bai said calmly. "Would you like to change your sideboard or your deck?"

He said that to test their meta capabilities.

"Meta" is a card game term referring to a pair or pair. There's a specific type of deck called "metabeat," with "Raid" being a prime example.

"I...I need to study this!" Binaire, no longer caring about her pride, declared, "Two minutes!"

After saying that, she sneaked into the crowd and whispered to her sisters.

"Sisters, how do you beat this [Cursed Eye] deck?"
