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

"【The Great Weasel Outbreak】?" Baiyun asked in confusion.

This is the card that [Silver Princess] summoned. I didn't have time to explain the effect in the first minute.

"This card's effect... um..." Luo Bai pondered for a moment, then explained in layman's terms, "Simply put, it means you must return the monsters on your field to the deck until their attack power is below my Life Points."

My current base score is 63.

"Hmm..." Baiyun nodded, seemingly understanding, "So... you have to return the monsters to the deck until... the combined ATK of the monsters on the field is 63 or less?!"

"Where am I supposed to find someone with an attack power below 63 for you?!"

Baiyun let out a wronged shout, her voice revealing helplessness and struggle.

"If it's too difficult, then let's not do it." Luo Bai waved his hand and said jokingly, "Let's go!"

His tone carried a hint of ease and playfulness.

Suddenly, eerie squeaks of rats echoed through the darkness, like strange musical notes leaping and dancing in the night.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a series of explosions rang out like thunder.

"Ah—" Bai Yun screamed with her eyes tightly closed, appearing fragile and helpless amidst the explosion and howling. The entire space seemed to tremble because of the rapidly spreading energy fluctuations.

With four monsters on my field having an attack power higher than 63, I had no choice but to return them all to the deck.

The fields and the area in front and back were empty, a scene of silence and desolation.

"Coach—you're bullying me!"

Baiyun's voice carried a hint of grievance and helplessness. Knowing that her defeat was inevitable, she simply squatted down and hugged herself tightly, as if trying to find some comfort and support.

They were very aware of their surroundings and prepared to be beaten.

"Repent, young lady!" Luo Bai declared, making a villainous declaration.

"Charge! [Raging Tyrannosaurus Rex], attack directly!"

Under Luo Bai's command, the mechanical behemoth [Raging Tyrannosaurus Rex] took heavy steps, unleashing a destructive aura. It opened its massive maw, and a beam of light converged into a spherical energy projectile, ready to be launched.

"Take this!"

Luo Bai waved his arms and shouted loudly. The energy ball gathered in the mouth of the mechanical dinosaur, flashing with a dazzling light, as if it was about to explode at any moment.

"what--"

A terrifying buzzing sound entered Baiyun's ears, and she immediately covered her head and screamed.

"Boom!"

The laser cannon fired a dazzling beam of light, shattering the darkness and leaving a shimmering trail as it swept across [Unbounded Realm - Death Prison], [Unbounded Realm - Tower of Babel], and [Unbounded Realm - Nine Dragons City] with a scorching heat.

The projected damage is low, but it is extremely provocative.

It was as if it were a declaration of war.

Red team's LP: 500 → 0

The winner takes all.

[Blue Side]

"Waaah—" A wisp of black smoke rose from Baiyun's body as she hugged herself and sobbed.

She looked disheveled and exhausted, as if she had just finished a tough battle.

Luo Bai walked to her side, squatted down, and gently patted her shoulder.

Baiyun thought he was trying to comfort her, so she raised her head slightly, pouted, and looked expectant yet stubborn.

"Do you still want to be a punk master?" Luo Bai asked, feigning fierceness.

It's like a thug picking up a naughty kid.

"Waaah!" Baiyun burst into tears instantly, "I don't want to do it anymore, I don't want to do it anymore, waaaah—"

Chapter 323 A Long Talk Under the Moon

...

Let me briefly explain a core logic.

Biantana had her [original body] first, and then her magic cards.

The idea that "Sister" is a "Siren" and "White" is a "Dragon" is actually flawed logic.

The correct logic is: there is something in the real world, such as an ordinary stone in a dragon's cave, and this stone has become shiny after hundreds of years of disasters.

Yi Na records the legendary story of this stone.

Later, the sacred stone tablet of the "Ancient White Stone" was created, and magic cards appeared.

You can't say this stone is an "ancient white stone," just like you can't say a father resembles his son.

First came Luo Qingling/Luo Qingyu, and then came [Hymn to Our Lady].

Following this logic, a single entity could even generate multiple magic cards.

Special commendation for Captain Bai Jing.

Wild Beasts are actually the "original form" of most Monster Cards. The Otsuka records their stories, and the sacred stone tablets and patterns appear, which is how the various Monster Cards that everyone is familiar with came to be.

Magic Cards are more of a story projection.

Sea turtles, which love to eat, are a real species.

However, its sacred stone tablet is submerged at the bottom of the sea, and ordinary people cannot access it.

...

"Still want to be a punk master?"

"I don't want to do it anymore, I don't want to do it anymore, boohoo—"

"Still getting cocky?" Luo Bai's eyes revealed a hint of amusement.

Baiyun buried her head in her arms: "I'm not floating anymore, I'm not floating anymore, boohoo..."

Seeing that she had entered a gloomy mode, Luo Bai stopped scolding her and instead bent down to sit on her shoulder on the water.

The bright moonlight was reflected on the gently rippling water.

"coach?"

A slight warmth came from her shoulder, and Baiyun was startled, her sobs subsiding a little.

"Don't let your guard down just because your deck is stronger," Luo Bai began to lecture. "The world of duels is vast."

"Hmm..." Baiyun nodded weakly.

“With only one [Dragon's Fury], you can’t play it like that when you’re going first,” Luo Bai continued. “If you only have one [Dragon's Fury], you should try to accelerate the Synchro during your opponent’s turn.”

"Accelerate [Dragon's Fury] can knock away three to four cards from the opponent's back row. Add the face-down card [Surprise Rip] to destroy one card, and if you draw [Whirlwind] by luck, you will definitely clear all five back row cards."

"You could have won this game."

Bai Yun was completely stunned, and exclaimed in shock, "You can do it like that?!"

"The strategy I studied all day... turned out to be wrong..."

She muttered to herself in self-reproach.

"You've only been researching for one day..." Luo Bai looked up at the eerie moon and whispered, "In another world, [Punk] players have been researching for countless days and nights..."

Baiyun was still immersed in her inferiority complex, muttering to herself, "I really am a loser..."

"Coach, you're so good, why don't you go up yourself?"

She slightly raised her head, her brow furrowed, looking quite puzzled.

"I can protect you for a while, but not forever," Luo Bai sighed. "Even if I help you win the championship by defeating five opponents single-handedly, once I leave, won't you still be brought back to square one?"

“A season is so long, I don’t necessarily intend to stay at Bian Yuelong forever.”

"We still have to rely on you guys."

"I would rather leave for a few weeks and come back to find that you have already won the championship."

"I...I'll try my best!" Bai Yun shouted, perking up, but then her voice became hesitant, "Coach...there's something I'm not sure if I should ask..."

"Stop being so long-winded," Luo Bai scolded lightly. "We're all on the same boat now, just say what you need to say."

"Well... um..." Bai Yun hesitated for a moment before stammering, "Coach, you have both the [Cursed Eye] and [Rabillins]... You wouldn't happen to have met our Bai family's ancestor, would you?"

"The [Rabilins] card...it'll be tough to get, won't it?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Bai paused and asked in return, "The ancestor you're talking about, is it Bai Tianqiu?"

"Mm," Baiyun nodded.

"Now many people in the clan do not recognize him as their ancestor. Many have gone to other fortresses or changed their surnames."

"The Bian Yue Long Bai family... only our branch remains..."

"Because of the curse on the eyes?" Luo Bai asked doubtfully. "You seemed to have said that it could actually be cured, right?"

“The term ‘curse’ is used by the Order of the Church, and it’s easy to understand,” Bai Yun said with a bitter smile. “But we still have to believe in science. It’s actually just a genetic disease, it’s just a bit strange.”

As she was talking, she suddenly asked, "Coach."

"If I were to go blind tomorrow."

What are you going to do today?

Baiyun's voice revealed a hint of heaviness and unease.

A blind version of "If Tomorrow Is the End of the World".

Blindness itself may not be so terrible; what is terrible is knowing that you are about to go blind and being helpless to do anything about it. The waiting process is the most agonizing.

"Me?" Luo Bai thought it over carefully and said, "Hmm... I'll probably pretend I don't know."

"Just like always."

"Huh?!" Baiyun asked in surprise, "Don't you have anything you particularly want to see, or...someone?"
