"What the hell kind of card is this?"

"Damn? I feel like I must have seen it wrong, wasn't the first move of this duel done by the God of Age?"

"Ridiculous! Absolutely ridiculous!"

"I just got here because of the traffic. Has Shen Sui's match started yet? ... Damn! It's already over? Wasn't it supposed to start at 9:30?"

Shen Sui's efficiency this time had most of the audience shocked.

Even those who thought Shen Sui would surely win were frightened by this duel.

They speculated that Shen Sui would win, but they didn't expect him to win in this way.

Confronting an established deck, he executed a move during his opponent's turn, even blowing up the field that was barely set up.

Are you not going to let anyone else play cards?

Is a Life Card Duel a single-player game?

Compared to the audience's astonishment, the professional Life Card Masters were relatively calm.

Although equally surprised, they were more amazed at how complete Shen Sui's deck system had become.

As for Shen Sui expanding his field during An Yang's first turn and blowing up An Yang's setup, they could barely accept it.

The effect of the Destiny Ring Snake is random, and which Follower Card gets summoned depends entirely on the deck's order.

This time, it was purely Shen Sui's good luck.

First, he revealed [Magic Apprentice Alice], which limited An Yang's play and disrupted his thoughts.

Then he turned up [Wood Element Empress Andori], which could specially summon the Fire Element Empress, completing the mid-turn explosion.

And furthermore, he specially summoned Oshana to safeguard and escort.

These three cards appeared together, which was just An Yang's bad luck.

"Shen Sui's stacked specially summoned Follower Cards are quite strong." Tan Song, sitting in the guest seats, commented after reflecting on the just-finished match.

"Yes, quite formidable." Beside him was another ninth-tier Life Card Master, Zhou Hao, who introduced Zhou Keji at the Duel Enthusiasts' Dinner Party, "Especially when combined with those Puppet Follower Cards with grave effects, it can produce stunning results."

Tan Song shared the same thought.

Even without special summoning, the normal summon was already unbelievable.

Because these stacked effect Follower Cards are essentially used for liberation or material extraction, normal summon and then liberation, costs aren't wasted at all, generating free gains by stacking two grave-effect Follower Cards, such effects can no longer be described as excellent.

"This guy's deck is always so ridiculous." Tan Song remarked with a smile, recalling his own experience of being paralyzed under Shen Sui's cost-cutting strategies, finding a sense of empathy with An Yang.

Zhou Hao seemed to pick up on something, chuckled, and asked, "Sounds like you've had a duel with him?"

"A duel invitation at the dinner party." Tan Song replied.

Zhou Hao squinted and didn't say much more, but casually asked about the Exploration Bureau.

Lately, the Exploration Bureau has been frequently contacting ninth-tier Life Card Masters.

But many ninth-tier Life Card Masters from dueling families haven't been invited by the Exploration Bureau, which made many dueling families feel a bit uneasy.

Tan Song revealed none of the contact details, knowing full well that what he saw at that time could never be talked about.

This world is being invaded by extraordinary powers from the Soul Card World.

The way to expel these extraordinary powers is by defeating opponents in duels.

Such a seemingly magical setting has appeared in the real world. If public opinion isn't managed well, it could easily cause social unrest.

Under these circumstances, ninth-tier Life Card Masters, who ostensibly possess the strongest dueling abilities, will become the theoretically strongest force to resist the invasion of extraordinary powers.

This is why the Exploration Bureau is unwilling to engage with ninth-tier Life Card Masters from established families.

Before, those so-called dueling families only postured in the professional realm of Life Card Duels, achieving their goals through power and money transactions with various personnel from the Life Card Association. Once the significance of duels is elevated to the level of world safety, what these families might do by exploiting this status is unimaginable for the Exploration Bureau.

Therefore, ninth-tier Life Card Masters with past misdeeds will never be included in the official organization by the Exploration Bureau.

Moreover, the level of ninth-tier Life Card Masters in Huaxia at the present stage is still questionable. Who knows if they, like the You Family, climbed up by cheating.

The quarterfinals proceeded one after another, and results came quickly.

In the evening, Xinyuan Yingxue finished her bath, walked to the window, pulled back the curtains, and looked at the distant sea.

Knock, knock, knock.

The door was knocked.

There was no need to guess; this knocking rhythm was undoubtedly her mother, Wang Chunxue.

"Mother." Xinyuan Yingxue greeted her mother with a smile.

Wang Chunxue stood by her daughter, gazing at the beautiful seaside scenery outside the window: "Tomorrow's duel is crucial."

"Mm."

"If we lose, all our efforts over the past few years will just be making wedding clothes for that boy," Wang Chunxue said again.

"Mm." Xinyuan Yingxue nodded.

"So you must not lose the duel, Xue." Wang Chunxue placed her hand on Xinyuan Yingxue's shoulder.

Feeling the warmth of her mother's palm, Xinyuan Yingxue nodded: "I will do my utmost."

"It's not about doing your utmost." Wang Chunxue's grip tightened, even hurting Xinyuan Yingxue, "It's about ensuring victory. This is your father's wish as well, Xue."
