Chapter 75 KC Cup Opening
Two and a half days passed quickly. During this period, due to the strengthening of network management by Kaiba Group, the second modification of the duel terminal intrusion did not succeed.
In these two days, many contestants planned to successfully challenge the "Champion" difficulty like Fujiwara Yukino and Yuan Lihua on the first day, but it is obvious that there are very few successful people - even if the number of contestants challenging the "Champion" difficulty increased dramatically, some players could buy the previously confidential champion deck information from those losers, but it is extremely difficult to specialize the deck for the "Champion" difficulty, after all, the deck you can choose to play against you is random.
The nine champion decks have different styles. For example, the card "Creative Man Soga" is quite powerful when countering Luo Likong's pit deck, but what if you draw Kaiba's deck?
In the past few days, only a few people have successfully completed the challenge of "Champion" difficulty, and these people are players who are ranked very high in the duelist. With their strength and some luck, it is not surprising that they can defeat the simple-minded computer.
"It's finally about to start..." Yukino stood at the door of the hotel inside Kaiba Paradise, looking at the bustling crowd - most of the people here carried duel disks, but few had competition badges on their chests. It was obvious that Kaiba's audition strategy was effective. After many trials and tribulations, those who can still stand here are at least somewhat capable. "I wonder how Kaiba will announce it?"
"Just wait and see." Natasha responded silently. She was taller than Yukino, but now she was more nervous than Yukino.
"...So, gentlemen, I long for a subversive duel! Longing for a duel that can show the passion and wisdom of the duelists! Treat this Kaiba Paradise as your hunting ground, and hunt only for the strong and the wise!" Kaiba's speech was still so sonorous and powerful, and even many years later, the original manuscript of this speech titled "Gentlemen, I Like Duels" was sold at a sky-high price at an auction.
When Kaiba's passionate speech brought the atmosphere to a climax, Keihei stood up and took the microphone. The growth during this period has slightly polished this boy who was still nervous when participating in the party held by Bekas. He said to everyone present in his immature voice: "In the end, let me introduce to you the strong people who gave up participating in the competition this time and chose to wait for you at the finish line. They are--"
A huge three-link electronic display screen behind Keihei began to work. The electronic display screen that had been shooting Keihei's close-up began to show three different areas, and the three single-digit figures in these three areas looked at the camera in front of them calmly, playfully, or without any expression: this was obviously live shooting at three different places at the same time.
"Ah, the one on the left is Dongfeng Gu Hui! I'm a real fan of Hui-chan! I really want to be stared at by the expressionless Hui-chan with trashy eyes..." "She is in... seems to be the haunted house in the park?" "The one standing on the balcony of the retro castle on the right... is definitely Yuan Xiaobai; when fighting with his 'Emperor', you have absolutely no chance of turning the tables!" "The one sitting on the victory throne in the middle... is Yugi Muto who uses the 'Chaos' deck?" "Not only that, it seems that most people recognize Yugi as the current Duel King..."
All around, whether it was the contestants or the onlookers, they were talking a lot, and at this time, Yukino was talking to Li Zheng and didn't pay attention to it for the time being.
After all, Xueno had already been spoiled about the identities of the three single-digit players, so she naturally lost the excitement and anticipation that a normal person should have. Many people had previously guessed that the three people should be Yugi, Yuan Xiaobai, and Yuan Jiu, the three serial numbers one, two, and three, but they didn't expect Yuan Jiu to drive his "Duel Supercar" to sign up for the competition yesterday; many people also guessed Kaiba, but they didn't expect that Kaiba, as the organizer, couldn't participate in such an action...
["Anyway, you have to be careful this time, and I don't want to say anything else."] Li Zheng reminded Xueno a little, ["Although there are not many people who can fight you evenly with your current deck, many people will show their true skills in this competition, and you are not good enough at the attributes of this deck. If you mess up at that time, it will be fatal - ritual decks often require carefulness, and the tolerance rate is never particularly high."]
"I know." Xueno replied casually, "When the time comes, if I I have no other options... Can I let you come?"
["Hmm?"] Li Zheng was a little surprised by Xue No's sudden question, ["I come?"]
"Yes, I heard everything from Hui-chan." The purple-haired girl with twin ponytails said that she had seen through everything a long time ago, "She told me that you are her teacher - then I think I should call you... Master?"
["No, it sounds like a dog-headed military strategist in a mountain village. You should just call me Li Zheng directly."] Li Zheng immediately rejected this title with a black line on his face, ["What else did she tell you?"]
"I always feel that the generations are mixed up..." Xue No tilted her head, and then continued: "Hui-chan told me that the spirit behind you can take over your body, and your combat power will skyrocket at this time... Although I think it's very mysterious."
Li Zheng: "..."
Feeling the distrust coming from Xue No's thoughts, Li Zheng said that it was painful - this is the harm of being a golden finger, but not brushing enough majesty. [Maybe, I should do something to let this girl know that this world is not easy to get along with?]
————————Creative Human Soga·Psycho Shocker——————
After the opening ceremony, the KC Cup and KC Cup Gorgeous Competition will begin soon. The contestants enter the Seahorse Park through two gates. After entering, the contestants first take the train in the park to an artificial lake. From here, the contestants can challenge any duelist with the badge of the contestant. The winner gets all the badges of the loser. When they have accumulated ten badges, they can go to the main venue to participate in the subsequent elimination rounds. The contestants of the Gorgeous Competition are different. Although they can challenge any duelist who thinks he holds the badge of the Gorgeous Competition at any time, they must start the duel in a place with park facilities and spectators. At the same time, after the gorgeous duel begins, the park facilities where the contestants are located will also operate automatically and participate in the duel.
How to use the park facilities to make a card game more "gorgeous" is also a question that contestants need to think about.
"Well, let's separate here first - I remember that you have privileges, Yukino-chan? As the seeded player who defeated the 'Champion' deck." After the competition began, Natasha said goodbye to Yukino temporarily, "Yes... you can refuse challenges, right?"
"To be precise, you can refuse the challenges of seeded players." Yukino shrugged, "Maybe the officials want to keep more seeded players in the finals?"
