A duelist never gives up!

"I choose to add Super Athlete Super Stadium to my hand!"

"chain!"

Xuefeng suddenly opened his own cover card and said, "I activate the trap card - Rikka's Thin Ice!"

"I release Snowdrop on the field. This turn, the effect of your Car Navigator cannot be activated. Then, because I release a Plant-Type monster, I can gain control of your Car Navigator until the end of the turn!"

"Gain control?!" Costa's face suddenly darkened when he heard this, and a drop of cold sweat dripped from his forehead.

Anyway, the effect of the car navigation system has been used up, so it doesn’t matter if I can’t activate the leaf, but if someone gains control of it, I won’t be able to perform a synchronized summon!

As snowflakes danced, Costa's car navigation system on the field was suddenly covered by a thin layer of ice. Then his expression became dull for a moment, and he ran step by step towards the snowy field.

"Amazing! Yukikaze's move not only interrupted Costa's monster effect, but also gained control of the opponent's monster!" The commentator exclaimed upon seeing this scene. "With no tuning monsters and no points to replenish, Costa can only end the round like this!"

The commentator's voice made Costa's face darken, but he had to admit that Xuefeng's move did interrupt his opening move, so he said helplessly: "I'll end the round like this."

As soon as Costa finished speaking, the thin ice on the navigation device melted in an instant. When the little guy saw that he was standing in the enemy camp, his face suddenly turned red. He ran back quickly and made a vicious face at Xuefeng.

"Sorry." Xuefeng chuckled twice, but one of the petals of Liuhua in the cemetery stamped its feet anxiously. "Don't stand there and giggle like an idiot! Did you forget I was still in the cemetery?!"

"Don't worry, I haven't forgotten." Xuefeng stuck out her tongue and said quickly, "At the end of your turn, I will activate the effect of one petal of the Graveyard's Rokka to Special Summon this card!"

Then, a petal of Rikka that had been sent to the cemetery before jumped out of the cemetery again.

"Then, it's my turn, draw a card!" Xuefeng said confidently as he drew a card.

"brush!"

Xuefeng glanced at the card she had just drawn, and her eyes suddenly lit up: "I Normal Summon Lone Spark!"

The skinny little golden flower appeared on the duel field, but this time no one dared to underestimate it because of its petite body.

Because in the competition the day before yesterday, Yuan Qi used this little flower to tell the audience how excellent the solitary fire flower is as the first movement of the plant family.

"Immediately afterwards, I activate the effect of Solitary Flower, liberating Solitary Flower from the field and Special Summoning Six-Flower Spirit Leaf Peony from the Deck in Attack Position!"

The girl with a pink peony flower on her head landed quietly on the ground with an ice-blue umbrella in her hand, revealing a smile as bright as spring.

"I activate Leaf Peony's effect and add Rikka's Wind Flower from the deck to my hand." Xuefeng continued shouting.

With Rikka's Wind Flower added to the hand, the duel came to an end.

Because... the formula for victory has been assembled!

"First, I will activate the continuous magic card - Rikka's Wind Flower!" Xuefeng inserted the Rikka's Wind Flower that he had just retrieved into the duel disk.

"Then I activate the effect of Rokka's Petal and retrieve Snowdrop from the deck!" Xuefeng activated Rokka's Petal's effect again, and then sent Rokka's Petal to the graveyard again. "I activate Snowdrop's effect, liberating Rokka's Petal on the field and Special Summoning Iron Chopsticks and Snowdrop in Attack Position!"

"Boom!"

With the appearance of Iron Chopsticks and Snowdrop, the number of monsters on the Snow Wind Field increased from two to three.

"Also, due to the effect of Rikka's Wind Flower, this can only be activated when a Rikka monster on your side of the field is Tributed. Your opponent must Tribute 1 monster on their side of the field!" Yukikaze pointed at the two monsters on Costa's field and said, "Choose, Tribute one of your monsters!"

"..." Costa twitched his lips, looking at the three dark monsters on the snow wind field, and suddenly felt powerless.

What to choose? No matter which one I choose, after the field is cleared, I won’t have enough resources to turn defeat into victory in the next round.

"Really? Why are you fighting? You're not even on the same level." Costa said weakly, relaxing his arms. "No more fighting! I surrender!"

"Huh." Xuefeng took a long breath and said, "Then I'll give in!"

"The winner of the first round is - Yukikaze! Let us congratulate Yukikaze, and also congratulate Duelist Academy for winning the first game!" said the commentator passionately.

"Well, it's just so-so. If I can't beat an opponent of this level, that would be too bad." At the Duelist League headquarters, Shigure yawned as he sat on a black leather chair, watching the surveillance video and the live broadcast of Yukikaze's victory, and said lightly.

"Come on, sir, you can hardly hide the smile on your face." The police officer on the side chuckled.

"Oh? Really?" Shi Yu frowned and quickly took out a small mirror to look at himself. He found that the corners of his mouth were curling up uncontrollably.

"Ahem, have you finished watching the surveillance video? You still have the time to talk nonsense with me." Shi Yu coughed twice and abruptly changed the subject.

"I've finished reading it." The police officer beside him nodded.

"I've finished looking at it too." The police officer on the other side also spoke up.

"Me too."

"I've finished it too."

Everyone said in unison.

"Did you find out anything?" Shi Yu continued to ask.

"No." The police officer couldn't help but frown. "It's like the Anti-Duelers' Alliance just... appeared out of nowhere."

"Impossible." Shi Yu shook his head and said, "Everything has its own traces. There's no way the five of them would just appear in the arena out of thin air."

"But the camera didn't capture them entering the stadium." The police officer couldn't help but complain.

Shi Yu was slightly stunned, narrowed his eyes and said:

"Then this surveillance video might be a bit problematic."

"Everyone, watch it again and show me if there are any signs of editing!" Shi Yu said lightly.

"Ah?! Spare me, sir! I haven't slept in 24 hours!"

"Yeah, let's get help from other groups, we really can't hold on any longer!"

"Sir, look at the dark circles under my eyes. I have a date with my boyfriend in a few days. If I don't recover quickly, how will I be able to see anyone in the next few days..."

"Hmm?" Shi Yu glanced at them coldly, his right leg gently resting on his left leg, the corner of his mouth slightly raised as he asked, "What did you just say? Can you say it again?"

"No, it's nothing."

"Yes! Sir!"

Chapter 51: You don’t think you won, do you?

"Great! Duelist Academy takes the first round!"

"Hurry, hurry, play the next round quickly! I want to see Duelist Academy advance to the semifinals!"

In the dim tavern, several young people were clinking glasses filled with beer against each other, cheering for the victory of the Duelist Academy.

"This is the first time I've seen a Rikka deck. It feels pretty strong. Not only can the main traps be negated, but it can also gain control. The sustainable magic can even allow the opponent to liberate themselves. It's really cool!" A young man praised.

"Yes, yes! Especially that snowdrop. I wish my girlfriend Mary could be one tenth as pretty as her." Another young man expressed envy.

The other young men were stunned for a moment, then smiled evilly and said:

"This is your treat, or I'll tell your girlfriend Mary what you said."

"Same as above!"

"Same as above!"

"No way? Are you still brothers?"

"squeak--"

Just as several young people were fighting with each other, the heavy wooden door was pushed open and a long crutch was stretched out from behind the door.

Seeing this, the young people immediately stopped fighting.

"Grandma Anna is here." Someone said softly, and quickly stood up from the bar and walked forward to open the door of the tavern. An old woman holding a cane was standing outside the door. It seemed that because the sun was too strong, the old woman's forehead was covered with sweat. Her dark purple hair was messy and stuck to her wrinkled face. She looked very embarrassed.

"Hurry, hurry, come in!" The young man hurriedly helped the old woman into the tavern, and the others also put down their drinks and followed.

"Grandma Anna, where is your home? Can I bring you over tomorrow?"

"That's right, it's too dangerous for an old man like you to come all this way!"

"Go away, don't gather together. Bartender, please give me a glass of water!"

"Nonsense, do you still need me to say more?" The young female bartender came to the old woman with a glass of water and said softly, "Come, Grandma Anna, have a drink first."

The old woman waved her hand, her cracked lips parted slightly, and she asked in a hoarse voice, "Am I late today? Has the game started yet?"

"The game is over." A young man looked at the TV in the tavern and pointed at Xuefeng, who was still playing. "Look, is that little girl your granddaughter?"

The old woman narrowed her eyes, staring at the girl with long snow-white hair on the TV screen, and shook her head, "No."

"Not really." The young man beside him couldn't help but say disappointedly, "Is your granddaughter really a regular contestant of the Duelist Academy?"

"What are you talking about, kid?!" Someone poked him in the waist with his elbow.

The old woman coughed lightly twice, and a glimmer of clarity flashed in her cloudy eyes. "My granddaughter said in the letter that she has become a regular member of the Duelist Academy and will appear in the competition. She won't lie to me."

"But..." Several young people looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

There are now three contestants in the Duelist Academy, two women and one man. The remaining two contestants are most likely one man and one woman, or simply two men. It is impossible that there is only one man in a team, right?

This isn't some harem novel, how could such an outrageous thing happen?

Could the remaining female contestant really be Grandma Anna’s granddaughter?

If not...

"Next, the second round will begin. Both teams please submit your player lists."

"Clap."

In the quiet tavern, someone made a clear sound, attracting everyone's attention.

The man quickly stepped on the remote control that had fallen to the ground and said awkwardly, "It's okay, it's okay... I lost my car keys."

As he spoke, he lowered his head and tried to use the dim shadows in the pub to secretly turn off the TV.

"Who has the key to that tattered bicycle you parked at the door?" The young man beside him bent down angrily to pick up the remote control and stopped him. "Grandma Anna believes in her granddaughter, so I believe in her granddaughter too."

"Me too."

"Why are you panicking? There are still two people who haven't shown up yet. Maybe the next one will be the one."

"That's it."

The old woman looked at the kind young man in the tavern, smiled slightly, and turned her gaze back to the screen. At this time, the commentator's voice sounded again.

"The second round matchups are out!" the commentator yelled. "Julie from Duelist Academy versus Ai Huali from Yaoyang Academy!"

"Contestant Julie is a sophomore at the Duelist Academy. Like Contestant Yukikaze, this is her first official competition appearance. I hope she can show off her unique dueling style in this competition!"

"And contestant Ai Huali is the captain of Yaoyang Academy! That's right, Yaoyang Academy couldn't wait to send their captain into the field in the second round. Is this an attempt to make up for their failure in the previous round?!"

"both sides"

"Game start!"

"Another little girl!" The young people in the tavern couldn't help but exclaimed as they watched Julie walk onto the duel arena on the screen.

"Is this your granddaughter?" the young man looked at the old woman hurriedly and asked.

The old woman looked at the familiar face of the purple-haired girl and nodded proudly: "Yes, this is my granddaughter."

"Okay, okay! I knew it!" The big stone in everyone's heart finally fell. When they thought about how Grandma Anna, an old woman in her sixties, walked from the countryside to the town every day just to watch her granddaughter compete on TV, they couldn't help but feel sympathy for the old woman.

If Grandma Anna's granddaughter was actually lying to her, how sad the old lady would feel.

"But... the opponent seems to be the captain of Yaoyang College. Can we win?" The young man who stepped on the remote control suddenly spoke.

So a new stone was placed on everyone's heart.

"You're the only one with a big mouth, right?" The female bartender rolled her eyes secretly and muttered softly.

On the field, Julie skillfully inserted her deck into the duel disk, looked at the man with long, colorful hair across from her, and said calmly, "Duel."

"duel."

"drop!"

Julie's duel disk rang.

"What good luck, you guys took the initiative again." Ai Huali raised her eyebrows.

"Luck is also a part of the duel. If you're unhappy, you can just leave." Julie retorted bluntly.

"Haha, so what if you're lucky." Ai Huali glanced at Julie with disdain, "I heard about it from my brother."
