The Wu Yue Cup, though like the Modu Duel Tournament, belongs to the B-class competition.
But there are differences between B-class competitions themselves.
Their only similarity is probably the same points that Life Card Masters can earn.
However, whether it's the number of spectators or the prize money, they are completely incomparable. By the time Life Card Masters reach higher ranks, many of them are not short of money. What they seek is greater attention and glory.
Obviously, for some competitions on the edge of B-class, they are not much different from chicken ribs to them.
Tasteless to eat and a pity to discard.
With this time to earn a few points, it would be better to study the next round of the Modu Duel Tournament.
However, Shen Sui still agreed to Xinyuan Tanchun's suggestion and signed up for the new Wu Yue Cup.
The Wu Yue Cup is a dueling tournament organized by travel groups from three nearby provinces, aimed at promoting the local customs and practices, so the competition venues are often set in ancient towns with the charm of Jiangnan water towns.
The prize money for the competition is not much, and the information of the players needs to be officially reviewed—after all, this is a cup mainly for promoting tourism resources and needs to consider the overall quality of the participants.
Therefore, the Wu Yue Cup does not have a complex preliminary round mechanism like the Modu Duel Tournament, and it starts directly with the main event.
Not long after submitting his information, Shen Sui received a message notifying him that he could participate in the Wu Yue Cup starting tomorrow.
"Why do I feel like you're deceiving me?" Shen Sui glanced at Xinyuan Tanchun, suspiciously saying, "Isn't it because there aren't many people signing up for this competition? How come for tomorrow's competition, I can still sign up today? Doesn't the organizing company need to make signs and schedule the event in advance?"
Xinyuan Tanchun said, "Isn't that better? This kind of competition is best suited to earn points quickly. Back then, I searched all over Huaxia for similar competitions."
"Also, isn't it possible that it's not the small number of people signing up for this competition," Xinyuan Tanchun looked at Shen Sui and said, "But your fame is there, allowing the organizers to let you jump the queue. This kind of organizer who screens the participants is often like this, notifying the selected competitors only a day before the game starts, otherwise why do you think more of these B-class competitions are held regionally? It's because participants from other places can't make it in time."
"So even B-class competitions are this hasty?" Shen Sui quipped.
"Now you know why so many people from the Life Card Association have been caught, right?" Xinyuan Tanchun chuckled, "Making money isn't just about banning or unbanning cards."
It was at this point that Xinyuan Tanchun disclosed the reason why Shen Sui was so eager to participate in other competitions, even to the extent of interrupting an important event to join others: "I heard that the Life Card Association is currently planning to reduce the number of B and C level competitions, and then add a national club A, B, and C class league to accommodate more Life Card Masters. So, hurry up and collect points, young man, the environment to earn points will not be so easy in the future."
Only then did Shen Sui understand Xinyuan Tanchun's painstaking intentions.
However, even though Xinyuan Tanchun downplayed the Wu Yue Cup, the next day, when Shen Sui arrived at the Wu Yue Cup venue in Modu, he felt that the organizers had indeed put effort into it.
The Wu Yue Cup was held in the suburbs of Modu, where there's a moderately sized Jiangnan ancient town.
The competitions didn't attract audiences by selling tickets; anyone who bought a ticket to the ancient town could stop by to watch the tournament.
The Wu Yue Cup in Modu consisted of the Sixteenth and Quarterfinal matches.
Then they would head to Zuili City to complete the Semifinals and the final matches.
Compared to the Modu Duel Tournament, the venue for the Wu Yue Cup was indeed rather modest.
But next to it was an ancient Jiangnan building, and on the other side was a quietly flowing river. For an unknown ancient town, the tourist numbers here were not high, giving off a serene feeling instead.
Of course, what pleased Shen Sui the most was this competition environment, which had a certain aesthetic of ancient beauty.
Unlike the environment of the Modu Duel Tournament, where one could accidentally be taken down by the opponent's card, in the Wu Yue Cup competition, Shen Sui felt more like he was bullying others.
This style of forcibly laying out cards without considering how to deal with the opponent afterward allowed Shen Sui to joyfully use his [arson] card.
The participants in the Wu Yue Cup were mainly Fifth Level Life Card Masters, with a few Sixth Levels.
Most of them were relatively unknown entities.
Of course, this anonymity was more in terms of national fame. To become a Fifth Level Life Card Master already meant being at the top of the professional Life Card Master pyramid.
Shen Sui wouldn't underestimate these opponents just because they weren't well-known. National fame required not only deck strength but also a bit of luck.
Just like Shen Sui himself, if it weren't for some internet bystanders who were irked by Xinyuan Yingxue's marketing strategies to mock the Xingyuan Clan's promotions, he wouldn't have gained some internet fame in such a short time.
Moreover, had it not been for Shen Sui proving himself by defeating Xu Tianzhi in the Ranking Tournament, how long that fame would last would still be uncertain.
Of course, now Shen Sui no longer needed to ride on anyone's coattails for fame.
The identity of being in the top eight in the Modu Duel Tournament was enough to prove his strength as a Fifth Level Life Card Master, and his enjoyable dueling style also helped him gather a fair number of fans.
For instance, even now, there were indeed some people who had come here specifically to watch Shen Sui's match after seeing the Wu Yue Cup announcement.
In contrast, Shen Sui's Sixteenth round opponent was rather unfortunate.
He was just an ordinary Fifth Level Life Card Master and originally thought, since the opponent was also a Fifth Level Life Card Master, there shouldn't be too much of a gap.
Then he realized what a huge difference there could be between the same level.
Some people are Fifth Level Life Card Masters because their level is only that.
Some people are Fifth Level Life Card Masters because their points aren't enough to advance yet.
"Open the face-down card now!" When the [Pure White Holy Steed Golden Ship] was destroyed in battle by the opponent, Shen Sui swiftly opened a face-down card, "Activate the Spell Card [Use Arson on It!]."
"It can be activated when my Follower Card on the field is destroyed in battle or by effect, destroying one card on the opponent's field. When the selected card by this effect leaves the field, all card effects on the field are negated, and all cards on the opponent's field are destroyed."
"Damn it! I won't let you have your way!" Shen Sui's opponent, being an experienced player, naturally wasn't willing to let Shen Sui clear his field so easily, "At this moment, activate my Follower's effect on the field! It can be activated when my Follower becomes the target of a card effect! Return the selected Follower to the hand!"
The effect of [Use Arson on It!] to negate all card effects on the field only triggers when the targeted card leaves the field, so at this moment, this Follower's effect could still be activated.
However, something unbelievable happened to him.
At the moment this Follower was returned to the hand, all the cards on his field were instantly devoured by the spreading flame, completely destroyed.
