A duelist never gives up!

"Didn't you say that we are of one mind and should make decisions together?" Yuan Qi said, tilting his head.

"Okay then." Ai Yi seemed to be convinced by Yuan Qi. She stretched out her little hand and said seriously, "Then read it with me."

"Huh? Why?"

"Stop talking nonsense, we're going to miss the time." Ai's azure eyes began to emit a faint light, like the strong light reflected by sunlight on a cold glacier, flickering and dazzling. "I'm chain-activating the Magic Puppet Dessert Walk!"

"I chain-activate Puppet Dessert Walk." Yuan Qi said as he opened the cover card on his field.

"Target the [Happiness of the Doll] on your side of the field and the Owl on my side of the field!"

"Choose [Happiness of the Doll] on your field and the Owl on my field as targets to activate." Yuan Qi repeated.

"[Puppet's Happiness] negates the effect, then returns the owl to your hand!"

"[Puppet's Happiness] negates the effect, then returns the owl to your hand."

"Is it actually this kind of ineffective trap?!" In the rest area of ​​Tieji Academy below the stage, the leading teacher couldn't help but frowned.

"Airi's going to lose." Shiratori Nozomi, who had already returned to the rest area, couldn't help but hold her forehead when she saw this scene. "Doll's Happiness is the core card in her deck. If this card is negated, her system will be very uncomfortable."

Yes, Airi was starting to feel pain at this point, but...it wasn't over yet!

"Although you happened to negate my key card, you've already used up all the resistance on the field!" Airi pointed at Hara Nana's front field and said, "Now you have no means to stop me, and I... can still move!"

Airi slapped the monster in her hand onto the Duel Disk and said, "I Normal Summon Rescue Rabbit!"

The gray and white rescue rabbit hopped onto the duel field, looking around curiously with its scarlet eyes.

"I activate Rescue Rabbit's effect, banishing this card from the field and summoning two [Puppet Monster Girls] from my deck!"

As soon as Airi finished speaking, the rescue rabbit disappeared from the field in an instant, and then two little girls with blonde hair and blue eyes in sky blue dresses appeared on the duel field.

"There are two four-star monsters. Is she planning to..."

Yuan Qi's pupils shrank and he subconsciously wanted to activate the soufflé effect, but was held down by Ai.

"Don't worry. Don't forget that I'm an omniscient god. I already have a rough idea of ​​what her deck is." Ai raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing an enigmatic smile. "So there's no need to activate it yet."

Airi took a deep breath as she looked at the two monsters on her field and continued, "I'm stacking the two [Puppet Monster Girls] on the field! A Gyro Network of two four-star monsters, Gyro Summoning—Princess Kelong!"

The little girl, with a sky-blue bow, long golden hair, and sapphire-like eyes, appeared in front of everyone in a cute dress, just like Alice in the fairy tale. She stood in the duel arena with her cute little face proudly raised.

"Princess Kelong?"

"Cyber ​​Monster?"

"so cute!"

With the appearance of Princess Kelong, the audience seats immediately began to boil, not only because she was a super monster, but more importantly, she looked as if she really was a princess walking out of a dream, gorgeous and cute, not inferior even to the chocolate platter on the original seven fields. The two lovely princesses also confronted each other at this moment, and there seemed to be crackling electric sparks in the air.

"Princess Kelon... This Xyz monster actually has a special deck?" Yuan Qi was also shocked.

You know, he also collected a card of Princess Kelong in his card album, so he still has some impression of this card.

"Doesn't Princess Kelong have a field?" Yuan Qi asked in confusion.

"You just don't pay attention to it. The absence of a field doesn't mean there is no related card." Ai sighed.

Airi breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Princess Kelong on her field. She then inserted a card into the Duel Board and said, "I activate the Spell Card - Bitter Decision. I send a [Puppet Monster Bear] from my deck to the Graveyard and add a card of the same name to my hand."

"Then, I activate the Field Spell Card - Puppet House!"

A huge castle stood behind Airi. Unlike the Magic Dessert Castle, the Doll House looked more like an assembly game, full of childlike fun.

"Princess versus princess, castle versus castle, and both are puppets..." Xuefeng in the audience couldn't help but get nervous watching this scene. "I wonder if Hara Nana-san can win?"

"Don't worry, Yuan Qi has already won." Nafeili chuckled, "He still has one trick up his sleeve."

"Yeah, but hasn't the resistance on Yuan Qi's field been completely trampled upon?" Xuefeng asked curiously.

"Just watch, he's about to make a move." Nafeli said lightly.

"Aqi, now's the time! Sweep the bear cubs back from her graveyard! And then recycle the ghost rabbit!" Ai shouted loudly.

"Got it!" Yuan Qi stretched out his hand and said, "I chain-activate the effect of Soufflé, removing one Xyz material and targeting the Soufflé on my field. This turn, the Soufflé is unaffected by other monster effects. At the same time, I trigger the second effect, returning the Puppet Monster Bear in your graveyard and the Phantom Rabbit in my graveyard to the Deck!"

"Tsk! Is this really what they're going to do?" Airi said unwillingly as she watched the bear cub disappear from her graveyard. But it wasn't over yet. Her Doll House was still on the field. As long as she activated the Doll House's effect...

"Then I activate the effect of Golem Dessert Castle. If a monster named Golem Dessert is used, and the monster in my graveyard is returned to the deck, it can be returned to the hand instead of the deck."

Yuan Qi paused for a moment, then added the Phantom Rabbit from the graveyard to his hand and said, "So, I'll add the Phantom Rabbit directly to my hand."

Chapter 31: How about you join our Magic Puppet Dessert Dojo?

No.

Can't win.

Airi felt her hands and feet starting to get cold, and her breathing became uncontrollably rapid.

So that's why he Special Summoned Phantom Rabbit. It turns out he can use the Soufflé and the Golem Dessert Castle to recycle it. Once he activates the effect of the Golem House, he will definitely activate the Phantom Rabbit in his hand...

Airi gritted her teeth, clinging to a last shred of delusion as she said, "I'll activate the effect of the Doll House..."

"Destroy the chain reaction directly." Ai said lightly.

"I will chain activate the effect of the Phantom Rabbit in my hand, send this card in my hand to the graveyard, and destroy your Puppet House!" Yuan Qi shouted without hesitation.

The petite Ghost Rabbit jumped up and rushed towards the Doll House behind Airi, drawing its long sword.

"brush!"

With a flash of sword light, the huge castle was instantly shattered and vanished into thin air. As the castle collapsed, Airi's knees gave way and she fell to the ground, sobbing, "How could this happen... This is my first time participating in the National College Tournament, my first time stepping onto the stage... This is too much! I still have so many combos to show off..."

"Well, I have absolutely no resistance now. Just show me any combo you want to demonstrate." Yuan Qi said seriously.

Show off? You've already destroyed my card, what else can I show off? Dance in front of the whole nation?!

Airi glared at Yuan Qi fiercely, puffed up her cheeks and said, "You're awesome! I surrender, okay?"

"Are you sure you want to surrender?" the referee confirmed again.

"Are you going to stay here and get beaten instead of surrendering?" Airi asked unhappily. She was not stupid. She couldn't win if she continued to stay on the field. She would have to stay in the sun and her clothes would get dirty if she was attacked and it might even hurt. Only a fool would continue to duel!

"Congratulations to player Yuan Qi for winning again. This time, there is only one spot left for Tieji Academy. I wonder who they will send to compete?" Although the commentator said this, he actually already had the answer in his heart.

It can even be said that the audience in the entire stadium also has the answer in their hearts.

The captain of Ironthorn Academy, the duelist who led Ironthorn Academy to the runner-up in the last session and was invited by the Duelist Alliance - Ryan!

At this moment, Ryan stood up from his chair again. This time, the team leader did not stop him, but only warned him seriously: "You need to pay attention to the walk and the ghost rabbit, and protect the Six Warriors Gate."

"Yeah, I get it." Ryan said, walking towards the field with an expressionless face.

"The last contestant sent by Iron Thorn Academy is Ryan. Like Yuan Qi, he is also the captain of Iron Thorn Academy. This duel will be a captain vs. captain duel! The captains of both teams will shoulder the hopes of their teammates to decide which academy will advance to the next round!"

"Have you finally waited for this moment?"

"You have to win! Player Hara-seven!"

"That being said, isn't Ryan also very strong?"

"Hurry up and start fighting! I'm so nervous that my whole body is shaking!"

"It seems we've finally caught up." In the audience, Mo Xun from the Royal Academy, holding two ice cream cones, sat down in front of his two teammates, panting, and said, "Now, what's the situation..."

"That guy Yuan Qi from the Duel Academy defeated two opponents from the Iron Thorn Academy alone, and now he's about to meet Ryan." The long-haired girl said as she took one of the ice cream cones.

"Who do you think..."

"Yuan Qi." The girl with glasses took another ice cream cone and said.

"for……"

"Intuition." The girl with glasses said impatiently.

"No, I want to ask why you took my ice cream cone." Mo Xun looked at the girl with glasses who was licking the cone with resentment and said, "You clearly didn't say you wanted to eat it."

The girl with glasses was shocked: "I didn't tell you not to buy it for me? Didn't I tell you to buy two ice cream cones and let me watch you eat them?!"

"..."

Not to mention the noise in the audience.

On the field, Ryan officially stood opposite Yuan Qi.

"I still suggest the same thing," Ryan said suddenly. "Give up on the Golem Dessert. With your talent, if you invest it in a stronger deck, your future will be limitless."

"Huh?" Yuan Qi looked at the blond man in shock. Yuan Qi, who always thought he was good at understanding others, felt for the first time that he was unable to understand.

Not to mention where you got the stronger deck from, how can you casually judge other people's future?

Seeing Yuan Qi didn't say anything, Ryan continued, "I saw the two duels clearly from the audience. It's not so much that you won the duels with the Magic Dessert, but rather that you won with some powerful small systems and single cards. Even with the salon as a supplement, the dessert's own system is still struggling to unfold."

"So what?" Yuan Qibai said boredly.

"Come find me after this duel." Ryan said seriously, "Join our Six Warriors Gym. You will be stronger than you are now."

"Pfft, what's going on? So he's taken a fancy to you and wants to recruit students for the gym." Ai laughed so hard he fell forward and backward, patting Yuan Qi's shoulder and saying, "Tell him to come find you after this duel and join our Magic Puppet Dessert Gym. He'll be even more powerful than he is now!"

"No, no, no, I don't want to deal with such a weird guy... Besides, where would we get the money to open a dojo?" Yuan Qi said with a curl of his lips.

"You don't really need a dojo to open one. As long as you have people following you, you can spread the secrets of our Golem Dessert deck!"

"It's too much trouble, no."

"You won't answer? Well, let me show you how powerful the Six Samurai are in this duel!" Ryan looked at Yuan Qi who was standing there with his head down and not saying a word, and raised the duel disk directly.

"duel!"

"duel!"

"drop!"

A crisp sound rang out from the duel disk in Ryan's hand, and Ryan said without hesitation: "I choose to go first."

"This is troublesome," Nafeli, who was in the audience, frowned at the scene. "The Six Samurai is a typical first-strike, field-building deck, while Hara-shichi's Golem Dessert relies heavily on cards outside the system for its second-strike ability. The situation isn't favorable for Hara-shichi."

"Well, isn't that bad?" Xuefeng said worriedly.

"No, if Yuan Qi had that card in his hand, he should still have room for counterattack." Nafeili said, looking at Yuan Qi on the field.

While Nefeli and Xuefeng were talking, Ryan began to move.

"First, I'll activate the Continuous Spell Card—Zi Yan's Dojo." Ryan said, inserting another Spell Card into the Duel Plate. "Next, I'll activate the second Continuous Spell Card."

"Six Warriors Gate!"

Chapter 32: Even a Six Martial Arts Gate is enough.

The Gate of Six Warriors.

The core search card of the Six Samurai deck, and also the key factor why the Six Samurai are sought after by professional duelists.

It’s nothing, there is no search every round, it’s just too powerful!

"I'm so lucky that I got it right at the start?" Yuan Qi said with a curl of his lips.

"Maybe this is the bond." Ai said, glancing at Yuan Qi's hand and said with some displeasure, "But it seems that your bond with this card is quite high, tsk tsk tsk."

"What are you dissatisfied with?"

"Humph!"

Unlike Yuan Qi, who was chatting and interrupting Ai during the duel, Ryan, as a duelist who has been dueling since he was seven years old, has a great respect for duels.

His expression was solemn, as if he were performing some sacred ritual. He raised his right hand, slapped the card in his hand on the duel disk, and said, "I Normally Summon the True Six Warriors—Yin Gui!"

Crackling golden lightning sounded in the air, and a warrior in armor appeared on the soft grass with a knife in both hands. What was even more amazing was that behind him, there was a pair of sturdy weapon arms, also wielding two blades. In other words, this was the Four Swords Style!

"When the Yin Gui is successfully summoned, I can place two Bushido Counters on the Six Samurai Gate and one Bushido Counter on Zi Yan's Dojo!" Ryan spoke clearly, his tone heavy and powerful, as if he had repeated it countless times. "Then, I activate the effect of the True Six Samurai - Yin Gui. This card can only be activated when it is successfully summoned. Special Summon a level 4 or lower [Six Samurai] monster from your hand!"

"I Special Summon the Six Shadow Warriors in my hand - Wind Demon!"

If Yin Gui is a mechanical warrior, then Feng Mo is more like a ninja than a samurai. He holds shuriken in both hands and suddenly appears in front of everyone like the wind, ignoring everything around him.

"At the same time, the Six Warriors Gate once again adds two counters, and Zi Yan's Dojo once again adds one counter!"

"That brings the total to four." The bespectacled girl from the Royal Academy suddenly said, "Next, we just need to use the Six Martial Gates to search for Brilliant Slash and recruit Purple Flame, and the counters will start rolling."
