Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh! Chapter 8

Chapter 8 Duelist Times

Tsubasa Nakamura ended up screaming.

The first round of the qualifying round got off to a good start, and You Xuan was very satisfied with his performance in this round. He also taught by words and deeds to make a person feel what the true meaning of Yu-Gi-Oh is.

I believe that this player will also feel something when he goes back to review the game. He has learned a lot from this and will definitely thank him in the end.

You Xuan played several games on the first day, and the density of games was quite high. However, the Yuehua Cup is not a competition with a high registration threshold. There are really many players from all walks of life participating. The qualifiers are held at the same time with many players in different venues, which can greatly save the time of the competition.

But nothing was beyond his expectations. There are no prominent characters in the qualifiers, and according to the animation performance, most of the ordinary passerby duelists outside the perspective of the protagonist group are relatively average in strength. For the time being, there is no structure that makes him shine.

Of course, You Xuan will not underestimate his opponents because of this. After the first day of competition, he briefly looked at the other competitions and learned a little about the competition of the promoted players.

Although the chances of overturning against most of the opponents were low, You Xuanxunsi still erred on the safe side. There is a saying in the art of war that if you know yourself and your enemy, you will be victorious in any battle, and this is even more true in Yu-Gi-Oh!

If you can understand your opponent's deck configuration and tactical style in advance, and make targeted adjustments before the start of the game, you can effectively improve your winning rate.

Before the Yuehua Cup, the gym had already allocated some subsidies to him in advance, saying it would be used to strengthen the deck and upgrade the configuration.

You Xuan accepted it without any politeness. With this budget, he was able to adjust his original strategy. He went on a shopping spree these days and tried to put together a few more decks.

[Erasure with Notes] Although he was the world champion back then, in the animation world, it is obviously unrealistic to rely on just this one trick to conquer the world. Once someone knows that he is going to be targeted, that's definitely something he doesn't want to see.

So after You Xuansai went to the market to purchase, based on the cards he could receive, he tried to piece together two or three decks that felt more playable and more likely to bring happiness.

He has been changing the deck and adjusting the construction according to the opponent's deck tactics, making his tactics more flexible and difficult to figure out. On the one hand, it allows him to always have a matchup advantage in front of his opponents, and on the other hand, it also makes it more difficult for others to target him.

Master Takeuchi made a cup of coffee, sat comfortably on the soft sofa in the afternoon sun, and flipped through the latest "Duelist Times".

"The Duelist Times" is a newspaper owned by the Kaiba Group, and it reports on all kinds of anecdotes in the dueling world.

He has been busy at home these two days and can't spare time to watch the students' games. But he had already heard that the first day of the preliminaries for the two students in the dojo had gone smoothly, and he was quite relieved.

I opened the newspaper and saw that there were reports about the Yuehua Cup qualifiers.

[There were almost malicious attacks on the opposing duelists in the Yuehua Cup preliminary round. 】

[A contestant lost control of his emotions during the duel, burst into anger and attempted to directly harm the other duelist, but failed and was disqualified.]

"Um?"

Master Takeuchi looked at the reports here with some curiosity.

Is there such a thing?

The quality of today's duelists is really getting worse and worse. There are actually some who get angry and attack directly if they can't beat them. They have no basic dignity as a duelist.

Take a brief look at the coverage. No real names appear in it, all pseudonyms are used, which seems to be intended to protect the privacy of the contestants. One of them is named Jian Ren, and the other is named Zhi Shu.

Then look back.

[On the third day of the Yuehua Cup, player Shota (pseudonym) suffered an unexpected hemorrhagic stroke during a duel with player Kento (pseudonym). Fortunately, the rescue was timely and player Shota is now out of danger.]

Got a cerebral hemorrhage from playing cards?

The master was surprised. Is this year's Yuehua Cup so dangerous?

Wait, he suddenly wanted to discover Hua Dian.

The alias of the duelist in both incidents was Kento, so they couldn't be exactly the same person, right?

If true, it was an accident once, but twice in a row

Could it be that it's actually the other guy's problem?

Master Takeuchi immediately thought of the phenomenon of his blood pressure gradually rising as the duel progressed when he dueled with the student named Yu Xuan in the gym two days ago.

He suddenly had a bad feeling.

It can't be that coincidental, right?

Three days later.

"You're already in the quarterfinals?"

It was a little too easy to get the ticket to the top eight, so much so that You Xuan even felt a little unenjoyed.

Sure enough, the level of competition at this level is just that. You can't expect too much. Most of your opponents are just so-called private experts. I don't know if the intensity will increase after reaching the quarterfinals.

Looking at You Xuan's expression of regret after successfully advancing, Hao Er felt the urge to hit someone.

Yes, unlike Yu Gen, who pushed all the way to the quarterfinals as if he was cheating, Sato Koji was eliminated on the second day of the qualifying round.

He had no competition to play and nothing to prepare for, so he had no choice but to come to the side of his junior brother who had been promoted in the same gym to have a lemon.

But the good news is that at least he was eliminated before he could hit Yu Xuan, so he didn't have to be tortured in the open court again. And at least now he can watch from the front row, admiring the other players being tortured.

Strange to say. When I was tortured by my junior brother, my blood pressure would soar involuntarily, but when I saw others being treated in the same way on the field, I would feel very happy.

Sure enough, humans are really strange contradictory creatures.

"By the way, junior brother, have you seen your battle list?" He asked from the side, "Who is your opponent in the quarterfinals?"

He was anxious to have the first victim come forward.

"Oh, he's a student in the middle school of Duel Academy."

You Xuandao.

"It's called Wan Zhang Eyes."

"Brother Wan Zhangmu is so powerful that he is incredible!"

Wan Zhangmu, who came from the middle school affiliated to Duel Academy, was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, enjoying the eloquent licks of his two younger brothers with a contented look on his face.

Wan Zhang Mu is accurate, the third young master from the famous Wan Zhang Mu Group, is currently the first in the elite class of the middle school, and will be exempted from the exam this year and will be directly recommended to the super elites of Duel Academy's high school.

Wan Zhangmu was raised by his family as a duel elite since he was a child. According to the family's plan, one of his two brothers was arranged to be a business boss, and the other was a high-ranking political figure. The expectation for him was that he would dominate the dueling world as a duel king in the future and become the future pillar of the Wan Zhang Mu Group.

At first glance, this "man who wants to become the best card player" seems a bit ridiculous compared to his two brothers. However, looking at President Seto Kaiba, you can understand that in this world, playing cards well has a better future than pursuing a career in business or politics. too much.

So it is conceivable that Wan Zhangmu has been arranged to participate in various competitions since he was a child, and he has won championships and medals in various large and small competitions.

Participating in the Yuehua Cup this time is also the intention of his family. It is his last experience before entering the upper division of Duel Academy.

Like many previous games, the instructions given by his two brothers were also very clear. He entered the competition just to win the championship.

To the family, second place equals defeat. There is no point in competing if you don't win first place.

But this time even Wan Zhangmu felt a little pressured.

Because among the contestants this time, there is actually Dinosaur Ryuzaki. The man who was the legendary national runner-up in his early years and fought against the legendary Katsuya Jonouchi!

Can he really win such a legend?

Wan Zhangmu rubbed his fingers and stared at the floor in trance.

"But I've never heard of Wan Zhangmu's opponent in the top eight. What's his name? Fujiki Yugen. Is he a newcomer?"

"Um?"

Wan Zhang Mu came back to his senses and inquired about his opponent's information.

Duelist level.

A star?

He even wondered if he had seen it wrong.

Isn't one star a fighter among rookies? Can a guy like this compete? Still in the top eight? ?

Another look at competition experience and public honors is blank.

"The resume is just a blank piece of paper. He looks like nothing but cannon fodder." Brother A curled his lips disdainfully, "How did such a guy get to the quarterfinals?"

"Maybe it's just good luck?" Brother B said.

"Even if it's just luck, I think this step still requires some strength."

And no matter what, after participating in a public competition for the first time, he was able to reach the quarterfinals. After this competition is over, he will definitely not be able to get one star.

"Maybe they are the kind of dark horses who show up for the first time. Occasionally, there are such talented players." Junior Brother B said, "Well, it's okay to be cannon fodder in front of Big Brother Wan Zhangmu."

"That makes sense."

Little Brother A nodded in agreement, then smiled.

"But having said that, this guy named Yu Xuan is really miserable. He faced the big brother Wan Zhangmu so quickly. It seems that he can only stop at the top eight."

Wan Zhangmu smiled slightly and remained silent, as if he wanted to appear cool and pretend to be a master. However, the corners of his mouth that couldn't stop rising and his instinctive tactical leaning back revealed the pride in his heart.

Although Wan Zhangmu didn't say anything, he agreed with his younger brother's speculation in his heart.

Fujiki Yugen has never heard of it.

Even though he is a dark horse, this is his first time competing. Can you still beat me, the No. 1 in the elite class of the middle school, to a second?
