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

Don't keep being fooled by him...

"Huh? He's trying to lie to me again?!"

How did you make it to the finals?

"Good cards."

【…】

Yilan listened to the advice and did not follow the chain.

"Damn it, I didn't fool her." Luo Bai cursed under his breath, dealing with the chain, "Send [Xiao Ye] to the graveyard, Special Summon - [Sky Striker Princess - Ryouri]!"

The third position cover card of the blue-clad figure shattered with a deafening roar.

"Hmm? [Echo]?" Luo Bai frowned, not dealing with the aftermath of [Disruptive Ripple] exploding monsters.

"Huh? Why isn't he destroying [Akrysia]?" Shen Shen noticed something was wrong and asked softly.

Mickey stroked his chin and said in realization, "Many face cards require a direct attack declaration to activate, so this [Axelcia] card is saved as a target."

"We've been fighting this far, and we've thought things through very carefully."

"How vicious!" Shen Shen exclaimed. "He was so eager to win, with so many details."

"It's a small detail, but the luck seems to be a bit off." Mickey saw something and chuckled, "Looks like they blew up a terrible bomb."

"Hmm?" Shen Shen looked at the dueling arena with a puzzled expression.

"Activate the effect of [Blazing Inferno]!" Luo Bai shouted, waving his hand. "Add [Black Widow Anchor] from the graveyard to your hand!"

He actually wanted to get [Flash], but there wasn't much left in his deck to search for.

Ilan smiled slightly and said, "Activate the effect of the Blue-Eyes Jet Dragon in the Graveyard, Special Summon this card!"

"Chain activation of the Graveyard effect of [Echo]: Add one [Tears of Elegy] monster from its banished state to your hand!"

"Except for you, who else..." Luo Bai was about to retort when his voice suddenly stopped, and his pupils trembled uncontrollably.

"Have you forgotten?" Yi Lan smiled seductively, with a hint of contempt and mockery, "The one you excluded in the first round."

"Hmph, I can—"

"【Tears of Elegy Clan. Sirens Mermaid】, add to hand!"

She tilted her head back and smiled slightly, as if showing off something, as if she had already won the duel.

"What are you being so arrogant about!" Luo Bai was furious. "Siren Mermaid can't jump up this turn, so I'll chain [Called to the Grave] to negate and banish [Blue-Eyes Jet Dragon].

"Advance to the combat rank!"

"[Sky Striker Princess - Ryouri], attack [Akrissia]!"

"when--"

A dazzling golden halo rose from the sky, and the blazing sword charged towards the enemy, engulfed in flames. Axelia raised her warhammer to block.

"boom--"

Sparks flew as Acylisia was thrown back several steps, leaving charred marks on her warhammer.

"The battle is over once the attack succeeds!" Mickey shouted excitedly.

Shen Shen looked worried: "Isn't there a [punishment]...?"

"[Punishment] Only monsters with higher attack power can be sent to the grave to be destroyed."

"[Liao Li] Current attack power—"

"A full 3800 points!"

"Doesn't that mean... if Ilan doesn't have any monsters with an attack power exceeding 3800...?"

"And this strike..."

"This is the fifth [Liao Li] strike in this duel. If this strike can end the duel, it will provide an enormous boost to spiritual energy!"

Xia Sheng seemed to recall something and murmured to himself, "Teacher..."

Helping [Liaoli] rise to the earth's resonance is not just empty talk.

Liao Li roared, his energy surging, and he forcefully deflected Aike Lixia's warhammer.

Under [Akrysia's] horrified gaze, [Liaoli] raised the flaming fire sword in his hand, and with a whistling sound, slashed down heavily through the air.

"Fredris, save me!" On the sixth floor, Exlicia cried out instinctively.

"Stop looking down on me!" Yilan shouted. "Open the cover card—[Punishment for Teaching]!"

"Send the [Ultimate Dragon Mage] to the grave, destroy [Sky Striker Princess - Ryouri]!"

"clang--"

A knight clad in silver-white armor stood in front of Excalibur, and the fire sword clashed violently with the shield, producing a deafening roar.

Liao Li was knocked back several steps, his brows furrowing tightly.

Lightning flashed and thunder roared high in the sky. Divine lightning, carrying the energy of the [Ultimate Dragon Mage], crashed down. [Liao Li] hurriedly raised his flashing sword to parry.

"boom--"

In the blink of an eye, [Liao Li]'s fire armor shattered into fragments, stirring up thick smoke.

Luo Bai groaned, his body swaying, his face turning pale: "Activate the effect of Graveyard [Zero Clothes]!"

Special Summon this card!

The storm swept by, the smoke cleared, and [Sky Striker Princess - Zero] stood before Luo Bai.

【Akrysia】 took up her warhammer and stood guard in front of Ilan.

Luo Bai and Yi Lan faced each other across the distance, silent and still, in complete stillness.

Chapter 704 The Final Duel (The End)

...

"There is no such thing as a romantic duel in this world."

"The essence of a duel is to kill the opponent to the last drop of blood."

—Duel Fairy Tale

...

Shen Shen paused for a moment, then suddenly exclaimed, "Wonderful!"

As the duel has progressed, both the streamers and the viewers have put aside their personal prejudices against the contestants.

"Player Yilan has [Akrysia] and two face-down cards on the field, and [Siren Mermaid] in her hand."

"Luo Bai only has one [Zero Clothes] on the field, and his hand contains one [Black Widow Anchor].

"Every story has an ending."

"It doesn't matter who wins this duel anymore!"

"Let's leave no regrets on either side, charge!"

Everyone held their breath, watching the ever-changing duel arena, not daring to blink.

The two monsters on the field, [Zero] and [Acrecia], have the same attack power of 1500.

"The battle continues!" Luo Bai's pupils suddenly constricted. "[Sky Striker Princess - Zero], attack [Akrissia]!"

With a shout, blue flames erupted beneath her feet, propelling her forward like lightning. Her flashing blade sliced ​​through the air as she swung towards Aklisia!

Yi Lan remained calm and said coldly, "No need to lie anymore, transform."

Luo Bai frowned; her little scheme had been seen through.

[Zero] and [Akrysia] have the same attack power, so this battle is not very meaningful. The purpose is simply to see if we can bait out a target card like [Magic Cylinder]. [Zero] can chain transform and jump away.

But ever since that older sister came online, she's not so easy to fool anymore.

"Activate the effect of [Zero Clothes]!" Luo Bai shouted, waving his hand. "Tribute this card to Special Summon—"

A gust of wind swept through, causing the surrounding vegetation to sway.

"【Sky Striker Princess - Soten】!"

Lingyi donned emerald green armor, raised the sniper cannon, aimed the muzzle forward, and flames gathered at the muzzle.

Yi Lan's eyes narrowed slightly: "They still came."

"The battle continues," Luo Bai commanded, his voice booming, "[Sa Tian] can now directly attack players!"

Sa Tian hovered in mid-air, squinting her right eye, her left hand steadying the cannon, her index finger on the trigger, blue arcs of electricity swirling around the muzzle, emitting a crackling sound, while the leaves in the distance rustled.

"it's over!"

Luo Bai suddenly waved his hand, and with a loud bang, a laser beam ripped through the night sky, falling towards Yi Lan like a shooting star.

"Can the attack pass?!" Shen Shen, along with thousands of spectators, held their breath at that moment.

A resolute glint appeared in Ilan's eyes as she slowly opened her face-down card: "Activate the Trap Card—"

"【Soul Relay】!"

Soul Relay

The sword light suddenly shone, as if a cold glint had torn through the night, accompanied by a crisp clang.

The laser beam disintegrated in the air, turning into countless points of light that vanished into the night sky.

[Sa Tian], who was in mid-air, raised his eyebrows in surprise and launched a direct attack on the retreating enemy.

The Siren Mermaid stands guard in front of Ilan and is connected to her.

Luo Bai was struck dumb, staring at the scene before him, frozen in place.

Shen Shen paused for a moment, his voice trembling with excitement: "[Siren Mermaid]?!"

"【Siren Mermaid】was Special Summoned to the field and protected player Ilan!"

"That one line is..."
