Chapter 39 Seven Years
Time flies, seven years have passed.
A lot of things have happened in these seven years.
Since Taiyi broadcast the "Battle of the Gods" live to the world, billions of eyes around the world have focused on a seemingly simple card game like "Duel Monsters". Countless people want to figure out what this game is all about. Are there really those powerful duel elves alive in the world?
This was originally the best opportunity. As long as Taiyi used the influence of "Jose Bank" and other forces to hold a global summit, he could choose to announce the "Dyson Sphere Project" or make the next arrangements that would be beneficial to this plan. But at this most critical moment, Taiyi's top leader Li Zheng suddenly disappeared!
When a bald eagle waiting for Li Zheng's next instructions in the cemetery of the empire learned the news, he scolded Li Zheng for several hours.
But there was no way. Li Zheng disappeared and could not be conjured out of thin air, so z-one, who was originally bored in the laboratory, and Nero and Xiao Shanshan, who played games all day, took over Li Zheng's banner.
Before becoming a space-time corrector, z-one was also the leader of the largest refugee force in the doomsday of the Machine Emperor. He had sufficient leadership and was very stable, and he seemed to never panic. Nero and Twinkle were once kings, and now they can naturally control the situation if they return to their old jobs.
Soon, under the planning of z-one, an international conference was held. However, z-one did not mention the "Dyson Sphere Project" at this conference. He only strengthened everyone's attention to the "Duel Monsters" and described a bright future that can be developed from "Duel Monsters" and "Wandering Particles".
Of course, z-one did not say the secret that "Wandering Particles" can convert information into energy, and even showed signs of deliberately misleading everyone present.
During this period, z-one faced questions and attacks from elite scientists from various countries and international organizations, and answered them fluently, making them all lose their temper - after all, many things that are already very profound in the eyes of modern scientists may be only a little more difficult than the homework of elementary school students in the eyes of z-one.
At the same time, z-one, who is good at public speaking, does not have the poor communication skills of ordinary scientists. It is not easy to convince the elites of this era.
After the meeting, the heads of various countries and international organizations returned with their own thoughts and began to plan plans related to "Duel Monsters". There are too many undercurrents and interests to mention here. Outsiders only need to know that among the plans of so many countries and organizations, the most important ones are only two points:
1. Organize a professional duel academy-the situation in each place is different;
2. Formulate a new step of ifd and ifgd world duel rules, and replace the current overly detailed "duelist number" with a rougher "duelist level".
Half a year later, the first set of "duelist level" was published, and now duelists can be called "bronze level" after logging into the duelist league. In the Duelist League, duelists will fight one after another, and become "Silver", "Gold" and "Platinum" players based on their combat experience. Finally, those who win the national level competitions can enter the "Diamond" ranks and join the "Champions League".
Duelists who enter the "Diamond" level do not need to continue to play games, but to find "Duel Dojos" all over the world, and win "Duel Ribbons" from the trainers of the dojos... oh no, from the Duel Masters. "Diamond" players who collect twelve ribbons can participate in the "Master Competition". The winner of this competition can get the title of "Duel Master".
For the "Duel Master", he/she has two choices. One is to choose to open a Duel Dojo somewhere in the world, change his/her identity and position to do what he/she did twelve times before; the other is to keep moving forward until he/she becomes the top one...
Duel King!
The Duel King has a three-year term. Those who have not lost a battle within three years or have made significant contributions during their reign can retire from the throne and be crowned "Honorary Duel King". The throne is vacant and left to future generations.
It is said that many people feel that the top executives of ifd are a bunch of Pokémon otakus when they see this level of duelists.
(Becas, who is reading Pokémon with great pleasure: That's right, do you have any opinions?)
In short, more and more professional duel circles are gradually appearing in this world. In the eyes of everyone in "Taiyi", this is a good thing. At least after Li Zheng returns, he can see a duel circle with a large number of highly professional duelists, strong standardization, and mature rules.
However, everyone in "Taiyi" did not expect that this wait would take seven years.
In these seven years, the world has never been peaceful:
In the second year after the end of "War of the Gods", the current Duel King Muto Yugi abdicated and became the "Honorary Duel King". At the same time, on an island in the Pacific Ocean, the "Three Evil Gods" appeared, smashing passing ships, changing ocean currents, and causing harm to the area.
One month later, Tofutani Hui defeated the "Three Phantom Demons" with the "Four Flower Princesses of Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter" and sealed them on the island.
In September of the same year, Tofutani Hui, who sealed the Three Phantom Demons, was crowned the second generation Duel King.
A year and a half later, Dongfeng Gu Hui was able to abdicate early and be crowned the "Honorary Duel King" because of the successive sealing of the "Three Evil Gods", "Earthbound Gods", and gaps in different spaces around the world.
Half a year later, the "Phantom Dragon" in the Atlantic Ocean caused trouble, smashed ships, triggered a tsunami, and killed more than a thousand people.
After sinking the US Navy destroyer that came to attack, Yuan Xiaobai took a small boat and used the power of "Frozen Ice Emperor Mebius" to seal the "Phantom Dragon" in the deep Atlantic Ocean.
In August of the same year, Yuan Xiaobai was crowned the third generation of Duel King. At the same time, human society had a large-scale understanding of "Duel Elves" for the first time, and many people even felt fear. Under the repeated calls of a large number of human rights organizations, countries around the world had to suspend their research on Duel Elves.
Three years later, Yuan Xiaobai, who had no defeats during his reign, abdicated. During his tenure as Duel King, he also sealed and defeated many troublemakers, including humans, elves, and demons.
In the same year, "Sea Turtle Bad Beast Jamsil" approached Tokyo Bay and was defeated by Kaiba Seto in the sea. However, because he had to take care of the operation of Kaiba Group, Kaiba Seto refused to be crowned the fourth generation Duel King.
Now, seven years have passed.
At this time, the concept of "Duel Monsters" and duelists in human society has gradually changed from dependence and fear at the beginning to a more worshipful mentality - powerful and gorgeous duelists are like movie stars, sought after by countless people.
Now, it is August, and there is less than a month before the opening of "Pacific Rim Duel Academy", one of the most famous "Duel Academy" in the world.
A duel of a more entertaining nature is taking place in a courtyard in District 11. One of the two sides of the battle is a girl with beautiful rose-colored long hair, using a plant deck; the other side is a girl with short pink hair, and standing next to her are several samurai who are somewhat different from the traditional costumes of District 11.
They are called the Six Samurai.
