Chapter 972: A worthy opponent!

"Tsk! It looks like just a shabby D-wheeler, but I didn't expect it to be so fast!"

Because of his age, the D-wheel vehicle driven by Long Ya does not have a speed limit like those driven by adults. The reason for adding this system is actually because Li Youfeng does not want to see Long Ya get into an accident.

It's slightly different from the original story, because the D-wheel car broke down during practice, and the Suns team ended up in Youxing's repair workshop by accident.

With a serious and responsible attitude, Youxing and Bruno helped the three members of the Sun Team repair the D-wheel car, and at the same time, they "inadvertently" increased the output power of the D-wheel car. The consequence of this was that the "Twin" D-wheel car driven by Long Ya could no longer catch up with the speed of the former.

Without any suspense, driving the D-wheel car modified by Youxing and Bruno, Ji Zang gradually widened the distance between himself and Long Ya at a speed visible to the naked eye.

After passing the first corner first, Ji Zang successfully seized the initiative in the first round.

"Great! I got the first turn!"

"Tsk! Don't be too complacent. Even if I let you take the first turn, it's no big deal. In this duel, I will definitely defeat you!"

"Duel!" X2

Jizang LP4000

Longya LP4000

"My turn, draw a card!"

After drawing a card from the deck, Ji Zang raised his hand and slapped a Mortal Bone card on the duel disk.

"I Normal Summon Heart Key Fairy in Defense Position!" (Attack 400, Defense 300) (1 turn)

After Normal Summoning a one-star Mortal Bone Monster to his own field, Ji Zang then took out two more cards.

"Next, I'm going to cover two cards on my backfield. The turn ends!"

"Haha! What good can a Normal monster with only 300 defense points do? I finally have it!"

Unexpectedly, the Suns team really used common cards as the rumors said. Long Ya couldn't help laughing.

"My turn, draw a card!" (2th turn)

【High-speed counting point Jizang 1】

【High-speed counting point Longya 1】

After temporarily storing the drawn card in the card slot of the D-wheel car, Long Ya smiled sinisterly and then slapped a monster card on the duel disk.

"I Normal Summon Death Wombat in Attack Position!" (Attack 1600, Defense 300)

"At this moment, the trap card is activated, ambush!"

Just when Long Ya had just Normal Summoned a monster, Ji Zang also hurriedly opened a cover card on his backfield.

"This card's effect is that when the opponent player Special Summons a monster, I can Special Summon a Level 4 or lower Dark monster from my hand."

"Using this effect, I will Special Summon Hand-in-Hand Demon from my hand in Defense Position!" (Attack 1000, Defense 1600)

After slapping a monster from his hand onto the Duel Board, Ji Zang then shouted, "Hand-Hand Demon's continuous effect is that as long as this monster is in the Monster Zone, the opponent cannot target other monsters. In addition, this monster's Defense increases by the total Defense of all face-up Defense Position monsters on your field except this card!"

"The Heart Key Fairy's defense is 300 points, so the Hand-in-Hand Demon's defense will become 1900 points!"

Hand-in-Hand Demon's defense 1600＞1900

Long Ya: “!!!”

"Oh my god, you're actually trying to play Turtle Senryu with me, right?"

Unexpectedly, Ji Zang actually used such a tactic. Long Ya's competitive spirit was immediately aroused. He knew very well that because the defense of the Hand-Handed Demon had been greatly improved, Long Ya, who was unable to attack, could only start to use the tactics he had prepared long ago.

"In that case, I cover three cards on my backfield, and then the turn ends!"

"Yoshi, it's my turn, draw a card!" (3 turns)

【High-speed counting point Jizang 2】

【High-speed counting point Longya 2】

Starting his turn again, Ji Zang took a deep breath, raised his hand and slapped another monster card on the duel disk.

"I Normal Summon Water Mage, Defense Position!" (Attack 1600, Defense 1500)

"At this moment, a new monster in Defense Position appears, so the Hand-in-Hand Demon's defense power rises again!"

Holding Hands Demon's Defense 1900＞3400

"Okay, my turn is over!"

"3400 points of defense? What on earth does this guy want to do?"

In just three rounds, the defensive strength was improved to an astonishing level. At this time, Ji Zang had made his field like a tortoise shell.

Fortunately for Long Ya, Ji Zang obviously had no intention of taking the initiative to attack, so the initiative on the field was obviously still in Long Ya's hands.

"Hmph, you're playing that trick on me? Fine, I'll have some fun with you! Draw a card!" (4th turn)

【High-speed counting point Jizang 3】

【High-speed counting point Longya 3】

After replenishing his hand, Long Ya first clicked the card cover start button.

"The continuous trap card is activated, the temptation of the undead!"

"This card's effect is that as long as it exists in the backfield area, each time both players send a card to the graveyard, they will receive 300 points of effect damage!"

"It's not over yet, the continuous trap card is activated, Magic Thorn!"

Pointing to the card he had just activated, Long Ya continued to explain.

"This card's effect is: When your opponent discards a card from their hand to the Graveyard, you can inflict 500 points of effect damage equal to the number of cards discarded by your opponent!"

With a sinister smile, he activated the two permanent trap cards on his backfield, and Long Ya then opened the third cover card.

"Trap Card activated, dark strategy!"

"The effect of this card is that both players choose to discard two cards from their hand, and then draw two cards from their deck. In addition, the other player can discard 1 card from their hand to negate the effect of this card."

"Sa, what are you going to choose?"

"Tsk! This brat actually used this kind of tactics?"

Unexpectedly, Long Ya's dueling style was so weird. After taking a look at the cards in his hand, Ji Zang could only raise his hand nervously and throw a card into the graveyard.

"I choose to discard a card in my hand to negate this effect!"

"Very good. At this moment, the effects of the Continuous Trap Cards Temptation of the Dead and Thorns of Magic will be activated! Because you discarded a card, you will take 800 points of damage from these effects!"

Jizang LP4000＞3200

"Wait a minute!" Seeing that Longya's trap card had also entered the graveyard but had not lost any health, Ji Zang shouted in confusion, "The permanent trap card Temptation of the Undead has an effect on both players, so why can't you be harmed by it?"

"Oh? Did I forget to explain that?" Long Ya raised his hand and pointed to the field in front of him. "The passive continuous effect of Death Wombat is that as long as this monster exists face-up on my field, all effect damage I receive will be reduced to 0!"

"Hey, now you should understand, effect damage is useless to me!"

Ji Zang: “!!!”

"Damn it! This brat is so strong!"

Although he was unwilling to admit it in his heart, Ji Zang knew very well that he was in a completely beaten state.

"Hehehe, the mystery is solved, then I will continue to launch an attack!"

First, he took away Ji Zang's life points, and then Long Ya smiled sinisterly and put a monster on the duel disk.

"Next, I'm going to Normal Summon, Praise Fire, Attack Position!" (Attack 800, Defense 300)

Summoning a cute little elf monster to his own field, Long Ya then said with a grin: "The special effect of Praise Fire is activated!"

"When this monster is successfully Normal Summoned, you can send as many cards as your opponent has on the field from the top of their deck to their Graveyard."

"There are currently four cards on your field, so you must continue by sending four cards from the top of your deck to the Graveyard!"

Ji Zang: “!!!”

"Gu~!" He swallowed hard, because the temptation of the perpetual trap of the undead was present, so Ji Zang naturally knew what he would encounter next.

With a cold sweat, he sent the card from the top of the deck into the graveyard. At the same time, Ji Zang also paid another 1200 life points.

Jizang LP3200＞2000

"This kid Long Ya seems to have changed his tactics!" Kro sat in the audience, watching Long Ya's duel intently, and the notebook in his hand kept recording Long Ya's every move and strategy.

Gui Liu beside him nodded in agreement: "Just as we suspected before, he has indeed grown a lot in this duel competition!"

Jack said thoughtfully, "Well, I have to say that Mr. You Feng's teaching is truly extraordinary. Under his influence, Long Ya's strength has improved by leaps and bounds. He's becoming increasingly difficult to deal with!"

Youxing took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "However, we have no way out. To achieve the ultimate victory in this duel, we must definitely fight the Pioneer Team. Therefore, even if we can't stop Mr. Youfeng and Mr. Kaiba from appearing, we must make full use of Longya and try our best to establish sufficient advantages before the confrontation with them!"

Crow & Gui Liu & Jack: "That makes sense!!!"

"Hey, you think you'll be alright just by building a turtle shell? I'm so sorry, but your dueling style and mine seem to be very incompatible!"

He also had no intention of launching an active attack, so in Long Ya's opinion, the tactics adopted by Ji Zang of the Sun Team obviously hit the back of his own gun.

"I cover a card on my backcourt, the turn ends!"

"Tsk, it's my turn, draw a card!" (5th turn)

【High-speed counting point Jizang 4】

【High-speed counting point Longya 4】

He knew very well what role he played. Even when facing Long Ya's blood-reducing tactics, Ji Zang continued to implement his duel strategy.

"I Normal Summon, Iron Demon, Defense Position!" (Attack 900, Defense 1600)

The fourth normal monster was summoned on his own field. Because the defense of this monster was increased, the defense of the Hand-in-Hand Demon increased by another 1600 points!

Hand-in-Hand Demon's defense 3400＞5000

Audience: "Defense 5000 points!"

"What impressive defense!" Catching the audience's astonishment, host Hiro Tsuda commented, "Kichizo already has four monsters on his field, and the Hand-in-Hand Demon's defense has reached a terrifying 4 points. Facing the Wall of Sighs' defense, how will Ryuya break through?"

Because this riding duel competition uses a city circuit, Yoshizo and Long Ya couldn't hear Tsuda Hiro's commentary at all, which further increased the defense of the Hand-Holding Demon. With only one card left in his hand and knowing that the damage effect would not work on Long Ya, Yoshizo could only continue to hold on with trepidation.

"That's how I end my turn!"

"Tsk, we're still strengthening our defenses after all this? Draw a card!" (Turn 6)

【High-speed counting point Jizang 5】

【High-speed counting point Longya 5】

Knowing that his attack could not break through the Hand-Holding Demon's defense, Long Ya suddenly revealed a lewd smile after confirming the card he had just drawn.

"Hehe, since you choose to continue strengthening your turtle shell, don't blame me from now on!"

"I cover a card on my backcourt, the turn ends!"

"Great, I made it through another round. Draw a card!" (7th round)

【High-speed counting point Jizang 6】

【High-speed counting point Longya 6】

He knew his position very well in his mind, however, just as Ji Zang drew the card, he saw Long Ya raise his hand and open the card he had just covered the field.

"Activate the trap card, shoot it down!"

"This card's effect can only be activated during your opponent's Draw Phase. Discard 1 card your opponent draws during that phase directly to the Graveyard."

"Hurry up and discard the card you just drew to the graveyard!"

"Goo!"

With a twitching mouth, he looked at the monster card he had just drawn and could only helplessly throw it into the graveyard.

"Haha, at this moment, the chain effect of my continuous trap card is activated again!"

"Because you discarded a card, at this moment, you will pay another 800 points of effect damage!"

Click!

Two black mists wrapped around Ji Zang like ghosts. Amidst the bursts of red light, his health points began to decrease again.

Jizang LP2000＞1200

"Oh, Ji Zang's defensive tactics are completely ineffective against Long Ya!"

Seeing that Ji Zang's health points had dropped to a dangerous level, Tsuda Hiro continued his report: "Although it's unclear what tactics Ji Zang of the Sun Team will use, for Long Ya, the consequence is that he will be trapped in a cage with his own hands. If this continues, does the Sun Team really have a chance of a comeback?"
