A duelist never gives up!

"Uh..." Yuan Qi's face looked a little strange. He actually wanted to say that he already had a way to eliminate the duel power, but looking at Baiban's serious expression, he didn't know how to say it.

"Aqi, I also want to find out what's going on." Ai, who was floating in the air, suddenly spoke.

"Aren't you the person involved?" Yuan Qi said in a low voice.

"Even I have some unclear points." Ai shook his head and said, "Perhaps through human literature, I can learn something I don't know."

When Ai said this, a complicated look flashed in her blue eyes. As the god of duels, she actually had some doubts hidden in her heart.

"Alright, it's still early for the opening of the Origin Land." Yuan Qi nodded and looked at the empty room in front of him and said, "There's nothing here."

"Only after you pass the assessment will the documents appear on the wall." Baiban pointed to a handprint on the wall and said, "Put your hand here, and the assessment will begin."

"Okay." Yuan Qi stretched out his hand and gently pressed it on the handprint. Suddenly, a black mist floated out from all around the room. In the surprised eyes of the two people, it slowly condensed together to form a figure wearing a black cloak, floating in the air.

"Welcome, trial-taker. I am the guardian of the first level. As long as you defeat me, you can proceed to the next level." The figure said in a hoarse voice.

"Use duel?" Yuan Qi put the torch on the wall and took out the card deck from his waist.

The figure didn't answer, but simply stretched out his arm, and a black duel disk appeared in his hand.

"Since it's a duel, it's easy to talk about." Yuan Qi inserted the deck into the duel board and said:

"duel!"

"duel."

"Wait!" Baiban shouted hurriedly, "Don't be impatient!"

With a slight sound, Yuan Qi got the first move.

"I choose to go first."

Without hesitation, Harachi drew five cards from his deck and said, "I enter the Main Phase and Normal Summon Raynor Heart, the Pearl Tear Song Tribe."

Accompanied by a flash of white light, Renohart, holding a long whip, appeared in front of Yuan Qi.

"Is it really Pearl Tears?" Baiban couldn't help but hold his forehead.

"I activate the effect of Renoheart, the Pearly Tearful Song," Hara Nanada shouted. "This can only be activated if this card is successfully Normal Summoned or Special Summoned. Send one "Pearly Tearful Song" monster from your deck, other than "Renoheart, the Pearly Tearful Song" to the Graveyard!"

"I send the Little Mermaid from the deck to the graveyard, then activate the Little Mermaid's effect, returning the Little Mermaid and the Little Mermaid in my hand to the deck, and Fusion Summon - Pearl Tear Elegy Tribe: Narcissus Mermaid!"

However, although Yuan Qi shouted loudly, but...

The Narcissus Mermaid did not appear, and there was still only a lonely Raynor Hart of the Pearly Tearful Lament tribe standing there in his field.

"The Little Mermaid effect failed to activate?" Yuan Qi quickly discovered the reason, but became even more confused.

The opponent did not initiate a hand trap, and I did not do anything that would cause the special recruitment self-suppression operation. Why did the effect of the Little Mermaid fail?

"So, don't rush into a duel." Bai Ban walked up to Yuan Qi with a helpless look on his face and said, "Every trial of the Dark God of Duel has special rules."

"Special rules?" Yuan Qi had a bad feeling.

"That's right." Baiban nodded and said, "There are six rounds in total in the trial, namely graveyard blockade, additional blockade, front field blockade, back field blockade, unlimited LP, and hand card limit."

"Of course, unlimited LP refers to the Guardian, not you."

"......?" Yuan Qi's eyelids twitched, sensing a deep malice. How could a duel involve such a unilateral rule blockade?!

"Based on my assessment, your Tearful Lament deck is very reliant on the graveyard, so I suggest you surrender quickly, then go back and rest, and try again tomorrow with a new deck." Whiteboard crossed his arms and said calmly, "After all, if you fail, you can always try again."

"What a silly little trick." Ai scoffed. "You expect us to give up after this? Ah Qi, go ahead!"

"If the cemetery is blocked, it will be really difficult to fight." Yuan Qi glanced at the cards in his hand and said.

"Huh?!" Ai pouted and said angrily, "Are you saying you're just going to give up like that? Lose to the trial of the Dark God of Duel?!"

"Of course not." Yuan Qi thought for a moment and said, "Although it's a bit uncomfortable, I can still fight."

Seeing that Yuan Qi hadn't finished yet, Bai Ban couldn't help but feel puzzled. "Aren't you going to give up? There's no need. Wouldn't it be better to use a deck that doesn't use graveyard cards tomorrow?"

Yuan Qi raised the corner of his mouth slightly, showing a card in his hand and said, "As a duelist, you can't talk about giving up!"

"I activate the effect of my Siren Mermaid card to Special Summon this card, then send my Little Mermaid to the Graveyard!"

The Siren mermaid holding a silver sword gently swayed her white thighs and appeared in front of Yuan Qi like a water fairy.

"Then, I'll stack the Siren Mermaid and Renoheart on the field!" Hara Qi pulled a card from the Extra Deck, held it between his fingers, and held it high. "A Gyro Network formed by these two monsters, Gyro Summon!"

"No. 41 Mud Sleeping Monster, the Sleeping Tapir!!!"

Chapter 3: Ancient Vanguard Kyle Burke

No. 41 Mud Sleeping Tapir, holding a wine bottle and with a big mouth, appeared on Yuan Qi's field. Crystal liquid slowly flowed out of its mouth. Combined with its closed eyes, there was no doubt that this guy had fallen into a deep sleep.

"Hehe, right choice." Ai's cute little face lifted slightly, and the corners of her rosy lips curled up slightly as she said, "Let's use 41 to delay the opponent's expansion and accumulate resources!"

"You actually chose 41?" Baiban looked at the monsters on the original seven fields and said in surprise.

Although she doesn't know how to duel, she knows some famous monsters.

No.41 Mud Sleeper, the Sleeping Tapir, has a powerful effect that changes face-up monsters on the field to Defense Position as long as there is a Monster Zone in Defense Position, and negates the effects activated by Defense Position monsters.

It can be said that many card decks cannot break through. In this case, Yuan Qi may really have a chance!

"I'm ending this round, it's your turn." Yuan Qi said with a wave of his hand.

Yuan Qi stared at the figure standing opposite him and couldn't help but speculate: The trial should have existed for a long time, and it seems that it has not been maintained or updated. In other words... the deck used is likely to be from a few years ago, or even longer ago, and there is no link summon version. In other words, with only a 41, the opponent is likely to be helpless!

"Then it's my turn. Draw a card." The figure standing across from Harachi stretched out his aged hand and gently pulled a card from the deck. "I enter the Main Phase and Normal Summon Orcust Canon Cannon."

Accompanied by a burst of white light, the golden Orcust Canon cannon appeared in front of the guardian.

"...Hmm?" Yuan Qi raised his eyelids and looked at the monster summoned by the Guardian, lost in thought. "Excuse me, this is Orcust, right?"

"Yes." The guardian said lightly.

"Wait, why do you have Orcust?" Yuan Qi couldn't help but ask, "This Trial Ground must have been built a long time ago, right? Why do you have a deck like Orcust that only appeared in recent years?"

"We, the Guardians, are the followers of the God of Dark Duel. The information of every duelist who has used Dark Duel will be recorded by us to help us update ourselves." The Guardian said in a calm voice.

Yuan Qi looked at the whiteboard and said expressionlessly, "Why didn't you tell me this?"

"I'm so sorry, I didn't know anything about this." Bai Ban bowed slightly and said, "Anyway, I'll be supporting you from the sidelines. Go for it."

As he spoke, Bai Ban picked up two broken wooden sticks from the ground and waved them seriously: "Yuan Qi, come on! Yuan Qi, come on!"

"...Thank you so much." Yuan Qi curled his lips.

"If there is no chain, I will continue." The guardian said in a low voice.

"Please." Yuan Qi gently stroked the card in his hand, his expression becoming serious.

"Then I will place the Orcust Canon on the Link Marker." The Guardian placed a card on the Duel Board and said, "Link Summon—Link Chestnut Ball."

"Kuri Kuri!"

With a cheerful sound, the cute linked chestnut balls appeared on the Guardian's field.

"It's troublesome. I didn't expect it to be a self-playing deck. Now the blocking effect of level 41 is too weak." Ai couldn't help but pursed her lips slightly when she saw this scene.

"No rush, there's still a chance." Yuan Qi looked at the guard intently, waiting for his next move.

"I activate the effect of Orcust Canon Canon in the Graveyard." The guardian reached into the graveyard and said, "I can only activate this effect by banishing this card from the Graveyard. Special Summon 1 "Orcust" monster from your hand, other than "Orcust Canon Canon."

"Chain!" Yuan Qi fiercely sent the card in his hand to the graveyard and said, "I activate the effect of the multiplied G in my hand. Every time the opponent successfully Special Summoned a monster, I must draw a card from my deck!"

"Chain." The Guardian slowly inserted a card into the Duel Plate and said, "I activate the Quick-Play Spell Card - Designated by the Grave."

"Exclude the G that proliferated in your graveyard, negating its effect."

The green fingers were like insecticide, crushing the cockroaches into corpses and throwing them into the exclusion zone.

"That leaves you with only one card left in your hand," the Guardian said calmly. "Looks like it's almost over, Trialist. I look forward to seeing you next time."

The Guardian held out his hand and said, "I will deal with the effect of Orcust Canon Cannon. I will Special Summon Orcust Dream Collapse from my hand."

As she spoke, the puppet girl holding a huge sickle appeared on the duel field with a scarlet eye and a ferocious face.

"I set Orcust Dream Collapse and Link Gorilla on the Link Markers," the Guardian continued. "The requirement is to have two Effect Monsters, including an Orcust monster."

"Connection Summon."

"Oratorio Galatea."

A doll girl with purple hair appeared in front of the guardian, emitting a holy light, like an angel descending from heaven to earth.

"I activate the effect of Orcust Dream Collapse in the Graveyard," the guardian continued. "I target Orcust Galatea on my field and send Orcust Divertimento Demon from my Deck to the Graveyard. Orcust Galatea, the target, gains 100 ATK equal to the Level of the monster sent to the Graveyard."

"Orcust Divertimento's demon is level 400, so Orcust Galatea's attack power increases by ."

Orcust Galatea ATK: 1800→2200!

"This way, we will surpass No. 41 Mud Sleeping Beast Sleeper!" Baiban frowned slightly. Next, the guardian only needs to use attacks to directly destroy No. 41 Mud Sleeping Beast Sleeper, and then use the remaining cards to expand. The balance of this duel will completely tilt towards the guardian!

"Is it really too hasty?" Baiban murmured softly.

However, at this moment, Yuan Qi smiled.

"This is what I've been waiting for!" Yuan Qi showed a card in his hand and said, "I activate the effect of the card Ancient Vanguard Kyle Burke!"

"If a card from your hand or deck is sent to your opponent's Graveyard, you can activate this effect by targeting 1 Special Summoned monster on your opponent's field. Special Summon this card from your hand! Afterwards, return the targeted monster to its owner's hand!"

"Crack!"

The Ancient Vanguard, with golden electric current wrapped around its body, stretched out its sharp front claws and appeared on Yuan Qi's field. At the same time, Orcust Galatea in front of the Guardian disappeared from the field and returned to the Guardian's extra deck!

Chapter 4: God-killing Weapon! Arceus the Thunderbolt!!!

"This monster is not in my database."

After a long silence, the guardian slowly spoke, "This is the first time I've seen this monster. Where did you get it?"

"Of course I printed it myself." Yuan Qi glanced at Ai beside him and answered as a matter of course.

Ai and I are one and the same, what Ai prints is what I print, there is no problem.

"It's a new card again... You're printing cards too fast, aren't you?" Baiban opened her mouth slightly in disbelief. Although she had heard that Yuan Qi was known as a human card printing machine, she didn't expect that he would print out a new card so quickly.

But... does this card have any use in a Tearful Lament deck? Or is it just a hand trap?

Bai Ban stared suspiciously at the Ancient Vanguard on Yuan Qi's field, trying to figure out Yuan Qi's intention of putting in this card.

"I take back what I said before." The eyes under the Guardian's cloak stared at Yuan Qidao, "It seems that this duel will not end so easily."

"Of course, and the winner is me." Although Yuan Qi had almost no cards in his hand at the moment and there were only two monsters on the field, he still did not show any fear. As a duelist, he had to have a determination to win.

"Arrogance or confidence? Show me." The guardian said in a deep voice, "I'm ending my turn. It's your turn."

"No more points?" Yuan Qi glanced in the direction of the Guardian's Cemetery. There was clearly an Orcust Divertimento Demon in it, but he didn't use it. He probably didn't have any other special skills to replenish points.

"Then, my turn, draw a card!"

Yuan Qi suddenly drew a card from the deck.

"Hey, this card is pretty good." Ai looked at the card drawn by Yuan Qi and said with his eyes lighting up.

"Not only is it good, it's absolutely crucial." Yuan Qi looked at the card he had drawn and said seriously, "Let's start our counterattack with this card."

"I enter the main phase. First, I activate the effect of No. 41 Mud Sleeping Beast, Sleepy Tapir, on my field to remove an Xyz Material. Then, I convert it to Attack Position." Yuan Qi first stretched out his hand to convert the Sleepy Tapir on the Duel Disk into Attack Position. In this way, the blockade of the Sleepy Tapir was lifted.

"Then, I Normal Summon - Divine Shaman of the Proclaimer!" Yuan Qi said as he slapped the card he had just drawn onto the Duel Plate.

Accompanied by a burst of white light, a girl in a shrine maiden's costume appeared in front of Yuan Qi. She lowered her head slightly, hiding her pretty face in the hood, looking a little shy.

"The Proclaimer's Wizard?" Bai Ban looked at the monsters that appeared on the original seven fields and couldn't help but become more confused.

If it weren't for the fact that Yuan Qi's level as a duelist was far superior to hers, she would have been unable to help but question it.

It's nothing, Zhu Lei Ai Ge is either a water tribe or a warrior tribe, so he shouldn't be a wizard.

"I activate the effect of Divine Sorcerer. This card can only be activated if it is Normal Summoned or Special Summoned successfully. Send 1 Angel-Type monster from your Deck or Extra Deck to the Graveyard. This card's Level increases by that monster's Level until the end of this turn."

"Chain!" the Guardian said without hesitation, "I'll activate the effect of the Gray Flowing Beauty in my hand, negating the effect of your Divine Witch!"

"Gray this?" Whiteboard asked in surprise. "No matter what you stack with the Divine Witch's effects, there's no way they'll work in this situation, right?"

"It's the level." Yuan Qi stretched out his finger to explain to the white board, "Although it looks like I'm piling up the graveyard, in fact, my graveyard is used to upgrade two-star Divine Sorcerers to high-star monsters, and then perform Synchro Summoning."

As he spoke, Yuan Qi looked at the Guardian, his lips curled up slightly as he said, "And he realized this, so he used Gray Flowing Beauty without hesitation."
