A duelist never gives up!

"I know, I know." Sera waved her hand, a cold glint flashing in her dark green eyes. "I activate the magic card - Fusion! Send the three heroes on the field to the graveyard, and Fusion Summon - Three Phantom Heroes!"

"I'm entering the combat phase. Go ahead, three of you! Defeat them all!!!"

Chapter 51: Your name is Yui?

"Boom!!!"

As the clear bells rang, the short hand of the clock on the clock tower slowly pointed to nine o'clock.

"Time is up. Please submit your winning love gemstones to the organizers. We will count the top four teams!"

A melodious female voice rang out from the radio. Yuan Qi put away the duel disk, looked at the couple lying on the ground opposite him, and said to Akro, "It seems it's over. How many heart gems did the first place winner get last year?"

"Twenty-three," Acro replied. "With three hours, twenty or so is probably the limit. Unless someone is willing to stake most of their gems in the last half hour, we'll probably have about the same number."

"Almost?" Yuan Qi touched the heart gem in his pocket and suddenly thought of a question, "By the way, are these really gems?"

"How is that possible? Liuli." Akro put his hands in his pockets and said in a flat tone.

Under the pink lights, the two walked side by side towards the host stand. After several doubles matches, the relationship between Yuan Qi and Akro improved.

So, men want to have good relationships with each other.

Let’s play a few games together first.

After about half an hour of recording, the organizers finally ranked the top four couples in the competition.

"Good evening, everyone watching." The host strolled onto the stage, his prepared script in hand. "Next, we'll announce the top four couples for Elro City's annual Qixi Festival Love Doubles Tournament. Until then, thank you to xxx, xxx, and xxx for sponsoring this competition..."

"Next, let's announce the fourth place couple who won the most love gems in this competition. They are a local couple from Elro City - Mr. Ike and Ms. Lorna!!!" As the host's voice sounded, a young man and woman walked onto the stage hand in hand with sweet looks on their faces.

"They won 13 Heart Gems in this competition!!!" the host cheered loudly. "Winning 13 Heart Gems in just three hours is a very good result. Let's applaud their performance!"

"Clap clap clap!"

"Next up, our third-place couple—Mr. Arthur and Ms. Snow White!" the host continued. "They've won 17 gems! It's hard to imagine how many opponents they've defeated. I'm already looking forward to their performance in the upcoming competition!"

As soon as the host finished speaking, Xuefeng took Nero's hand and walked gently onto the stage.

Then, the smile on the host's face became stiff at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Mr. Arthur?" the host asked tentatively.

"It's me." Nero said, wearing a black veil, taking a step forward.

"Are you Arthur?" The host's eyes almost popped out of his head in surprise.

"I am." Nero tilted his head slightly, "I can't be called Arthur?"

"No, of course." The host took out a white handkerchief from his pocket, wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "I'm sorry for being rude."

Although I heard that there were several same-sex couples in this competition, I didn't expect that one of them would make it to the semi-finals?

It won’t have a bad influence on the children, right?

That’s not right…Is homosexuality a bad influence?

No, no, we’re broadcasting live now, we can’t think about these things.

The host quickly recovered and continued, "Second place goes to Ikaros and Daedalus. They received 23 love gems!"

When the host saw these two names, he couldn't help but frown. These two names... look like two gentlemen.

"Clap."

"Crack, snap."

The sound of crisp footsteps was heard, and the host saw a purple-haired girl wearing a veil and a green-haired girl also wearing a veil walking onto the stage.

"I'm Daedalus!" Sera answered before the host could ask, and pointed to Julie beside her, "She's Ikaros!"

"Yes, I'm Ikaros." Julie nodded, and for some reason her face under the veil looked a little unhappy - she always felt that there was something wrong with this name, but she couldn't find what it was.

The host curled his lips. Fortunately, after being washed away by Xuefeng and Nero just now, his ability to accept things has improved a lot.

"Finally, let's reveal the first place winner!"

"That's Mr. Akero and Ms. Yui Natsukawa! They received 32 love gems in this competition! This is an almost impossible feat! Let's cheer for them!!!" The host felt a little relieved when he saw the list in his hand. It couldn't be that the only boy was named Yui, right?

It's impossible, right?

So this pair must be...

Yuan Qi and Akro walked up silently.

For a moment, the host froze in place as if he were staring into the eyes of the mythical Medusa.

After a long while, he finally said in a trembling voice, "Excuse me, who is Natsukawa Yui?"

Yuan Qi, wearing a mask, lowered his head and said, "It's me."

"You...your name is Natsukawa Yui...what a nice name." The host took a long time to utter.

"Well, thank you." Yuan Qi still lowered his head, not wanting to face the camera in the distance.

He would never want his face to appear on TV because of this kind of thing, even if he was wearing a mask!

"How could there be a man named Yui?" The woman in shorts in front of the TV hiccuped and looked at the woman next to her and said, "It's obviously a hint to you, Yui."

The girl named Yui didn't say anything. She just bit her lower lip lightly and looked at Akro on the screen with her eyes lowered. It was unknown what she was thinking.

"Say something, don't be so silent." The woman in shorts seemed to be drunk, hugged Yui impatiently and said, "Tell me what happened between you two."

"You just said you wouldn't ask." Yui said softly.

"Hic! That was me just now, not me now!" The woman in shorts said with a wicked grin, "What's important isn't the past, but the present!"

"If it's not important, why are you asking?" Yui said as if she didn't want to speak.

"Because you're still stuck in the past," the woman in shorts said to Yui, "If you don't sort it out, you won't be able to move forward."

Yui hesitated for a moment. Actually, she had called her best friend over today because she wanted to talk to her. So she opened her mouth slightly and said, "Actually..."

"Is that so..." The woman in shorts fell silent after hearing what Yui said.

"After all, you might be living there for the rest of your life after marriage, so it's a very serious matter," the woman in shorts said, expressing her understanding. "Then why not give it a try for now?"

"Let's try it for now?" Yui asked puzzledly.

"You stay with him in the small town near the Duelist Academy for a while, and he'll accompany you to the big city for a while." The woman in shorts took another sip of beer and said, "How about we experience it first, and then discuss it properly?"

Yui was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "Thank you."

"Then bring me some more beer!"

Chapter 52: I seemed to see someone familiar.

"Next, we'll proceed to the semi-finals with Group 1 facing Group 4, and Group 2 facing Group 3! The two winning teams will compete in the finals, and the winner will receive two couple's card sets designed by Master Harmant!"

Even though he was mentally shocked, the host was an old veteran who had hosted many competitions after all. He quickly recovered from the shock and looked normal in front of the camera.

At this moment, in the royal capital thousands of miles away, Honglian looked at the figure on the screen in the store through the glass and couldn't help but smile softly.

"Guren, what are you doing?" Shigure frowned. "We're still on a mission, and we're here to capture members of the Anti-Dueling League."

"Sorry, I just seemed to see someone I know on TV." Honglian lowered her head slightly.

After dozens of days of patrols and blockades, the guys from the Anti-Duelers Alliance finally showed their true colors.

Today they received news from an informant that several members of the Anti-Duel Alliance would arrange for some members to escape from the royal capital at twelve o'clock tonight.

The Duelist Alliance deliberately exposed 10 loopholes in the blockade, and Honglian's team was responsible for one of them - the sewer entrance in the alley at the corner of the commercial street.

"Don't do it again next time." Shi Yu said, and subconsciously glanced at the TV in the store next door, and found... he seemed to see a familiar figure.

That child... looks like Xuefeng.

That shouldn’t be the case... Doesn’t Xuefeng like that kid named Yuan Qi?

I probably overthink it.

……

"Shall we start?" Yuan Qi pulled out his deck, inserted it into the duel disk, and said to the young couple across from him, "Come on, duel."

"Oh! Come on!" The Ekko on the opposite side seemed to be a passionate young man, and he also inserted the deck into the duel board.

"Or do you go first?" Akro asked.

"This is faster." Yuan Qi said.

"Duel!" x4.

"Ding!" Yuan Qi's duel disk rang again.

"I choose to go first." Yuan Qi said, and drew five cards without hesitation.

"Good luck." Ai looked at the hand card in Yuan Qi's hand, and said with a slight smile on his face.

"Indeed," Yuan Qi agreed. "I enter the Main Phase and activate Pot of Gold and Humility, banishing six cards from my Extra Deck, flipping six cards from my Deck, and choosing one."

"Excluding six cards?" Ike couldn't help but hesitate.

If it was just three cards that needed to be excluded, he wouldn't hesitate.

Many times, you won’t find anything good even if you flip through the three numbers.

But turning over six is ​​different. It not only means losing six extra cards, but also giving you more choices.

Except for number six, this person is either a greedy person or a greedy person.

Or...he stopped moving!

Ike's eyes lit up, and he quickly sent the card in his hand to the graveyard and said, "I'm activating Gray Flowing Beauty, negating your Pot's activation."

Yuan Qi glanced at the designated person he had killed and nodded slightly: "Then my pot is invalidated."

That’s right, Yuan Qi is just a greedy person who cheats for the gray items.

On top of that, the dessert extras were really quite empty.

"Then I will summon the Witch Madeleine." Yuan Qi slapped the Witch Madeleine in his hand on the duel disk and said.

The lovely Witch Madeleine once again pulled her big hat and appeared on Yuan Qi's field with a playful smile on her face, but if you look closely, you will find that there is a trace of fatigue on the face of the Witch Madeleine.

She had been summoned countless times this evening.

I don’t know why, but every time Yuan Qi uses the magic dessert, he will appear in his hand.

Could it be... could it be that I want to go on stage? !

The Witch Madeleine quickly shook her head. It was okay to appear once in a while, but it would be really tiring to appear all the time!

"I activate the effect of Madeline Witch and add the Magic Dessert Pudding Princess from the deck to my hand." Yuan Qi continued.

"Have you been cheated?" Ike couldn't help but whisper.

"Your decision is correct." Luna shook her head. "If he draws the designated number on the flip of six, the result will be the same."

"Yeah, I know." Ike nodded.

"Then, I will activate the effect of Pudding Princess in my hand. When there are no monsters in the graveyard, this card will be special summoned." Yuan Qi said.

"Chain!" Ike sent another card in his hand to the graveyard and said, "I activate G of Proliferation!"

"Wow, they are worthy of being a team that can enter the semi-finals? They actually have Gray Flowing Beauty and Proliferating G?" Akro said intently.

"It's okay, I have one too." Yuan Qi sent a card in his hand to the graveyard and said, "I will chain activate Gray Flowing Beauty to negate your multiplication g."

"Is it a hand pit battle at the beginning? It seems that both duelists are not simple." The audience in the audience whispered.

"Many professional duelists don't have both types of hand pits, right?"

"I'm already looking forward to it!"

"Looking forward to it?" Ai chuckled. "Then watch carefully and see how the Magic Dessert doubles up."

"I activate Princess Sister's effect to Special Summon Pudding Princess from the Deck, reducing her Level by one." Yuan Qi spoke quickly. After all, he knew this combo by heart. "Then I stacked the two monsters!"

"Super Summon!"

"Magic Puppet Dessert Teacher - Glasses Soufflé!"
