After hearing this, Hua Ningning's pretty face showed a trace of anger. Why was this guy so stubborn?

This was clearly giving him a way out, and it could preserve the Rare Cards as well. It benefited both sides.

Yet he had actually accepted a duel with a Rare Card Hunter?

Didn't he know why these people were called Rare Card Hunters?

Hua Ningning shook her head. Forget it. Good advice could not save someone determined to die.

Poison Wolf raised an eyebrow as well, revealing a meaningful smile.

In the past, he had relied on chains in his duels, and his prey would flee at the very mention of them.

He had never expected to encounter a Duelist who did not run.

And that was one thing, but this guy had actually set his sights on his deck?

Was he questioning Poison Wolf's ability to pick his prey?

Poison Wolf was not worried in the slightest. This guy was so young that he was probably just a student. What kind of waves could a student make?

He could not even imagine how he could lose to a student.

Poison Wolf put on his Duel Disk and pressed the chain device. A black chain shot out from its tail fin, automatically tracked You Chen's Duel Disk, and locked onto it firmly!

You Chen gave a faint smile when he saw that. "Completely unnecessary."

A coin fell from the sky.

This time, it landed heads-up. You Chen went first.

Hua Ningning stepped back beside You Chen. This was the perfect time to see how well the deck-building ideas behind his newly assembled deck would perform.

And since his opponent was a Rare Card Hunter, it would test this deck even better.

You Chen Set two cards and ended his turn immediately.

It was extremely decisive and plain.

This time, he had not Set five cards, and Hua Ningning actually found herself a little unaccustomed to it.

"You're just Setting cards and passing? My turn! Draw!" Poison Wolf's lips curled upward uncontrollably. Going second was practically heaven's help.

"I Normal Summon Geargia Soldier from my hand!"

Poison Wolf gave a sinister grin and pressed down a card held between two fingers.

A flash of light appeared in his Monster Zone.

A green armored soldier descended onto the field, wielding a saber.

Geargia Soldier EARTH Attribute/Four Stars/Machine-Type ATK: 1600/DEF: 1500

"Then I activate its effect! If there are no other monsters on my field, when this card is successfully Summoned, I can activate it. I Special Summon 1 'Geargia' monster other than 'Geargia Soldier' from my hand."

"The one I'll Special Summon is Geargia Gear!"

In an instant, an enormous Geargia unit descended before Poison Wolf. Its right hand was a giant gear-like wheel, while an anti-aircraft cannon rested over its left shoulder.

Its heavily armored alloy frame and saw-toothed arms radiated overwhelming destructive power.

Geargia Gear EARTH Attribute/Eight Stars/Machine-Type ATK: 2600/DEF: 1500

"Not only that, I'll discard Mecha Fortress and Geargia Peacekeeper from my hand."

"By discarding Machine-Type monsters from my hand with a total Level of 8 or higher, I can Special Summon Mecha Fortress from my hand or Graveyard!"

"Hehe, rise from the Graveyard, Mecha Fortress!"

Poison Wolf's laughter spread through the air, carrying an endless sense of oppression in the night.

The ground in his Monster Zone cracked apart, and a Mecha Fortress like a tank drove up from beneath the earth, rumbling forward as its anti-aircraft cannon crushed across the ground.

Mecha Fortress EARTH Attribute/Seven Stars/Machine-Type ATK: 2500/DEF: 1600

In just a few moments, Poison Wolf had completed a triple summon!

The three mechas stood as if ruling the world, leaving everyone around them breathless.

"That's terrifying! Is this the strength of a Three-Star Rare Card Hunter?"

"So scary. Good thing he didn't target me."

"That Duelist is just too pitiful."

The surrounding crowd could not help casting sympathetic looks his way.

Of course, there were also plenty of people who enjoyed watching the show and took pleasure in his misfortune.

The moment Hua Ningning saw this scene, she froze in place.

There was no way to fight a Duelist like this.

He had already summoned three high-level monsters in a single turn!

It was far too smooth, and incredibly aggressive.

This was absolutely not something a student could withstand.

Well, that was it. You Chen was done for. He was definitely done for.

"How is it? Feeling a little helpless already?"

The smile beneath Poison Wolf's sunglasses became increasingly wild.

You Chen blinked and glanced at the three colossal mechas.

He had to admit, they were indeed impressive.

But that was all.

"Impressive, sure, but useless. I activate my Set Card, the Trap Card Threatening Roar!"

"This turn, my opponent cannot declare an attack."

You Chen defended himself with a single card.

This kind of cowardly tactic had already made Poison Wolf extremely unhappy.

"I'd like to see how long you can keep hiding. End turn." Poison Wolf narrowed his eyes.

"Are you sure you aren't Setting any backrow?"

"Still, for high mobility, mechas generally do not run many defensive Traps. They focus on offense."

"Hmm, if that's the case..."

You Chen pondered for a moment but said nothing more.

After all, it was already his turn.

"My turn, draw." You Chen placed two fingers atop his deck and slowly drew a card.

"I activate the Magic Card Pot of Greed from my hand! I draw two cards from my deck!"

That brought You Chen's hand to six cards.

The moment Poison Wolf saw that card, his eyes lit up even more brightly, and his grin grew increasingly ferocious.

"Just as I thought! You have even rarer cards!"

"Hahaha, I've struck it rich this time! Pot of Greed is worth five million. This haul is a massive profit!"

Poison Wolf could no longer suppress his greed. He was nearly laughing himself into Face Art.

Spittle flew everywhere, as though he would swallow You Chen whole the next second.

Hua Ningning was equally stunned. She had not expected You Chen to possess such a precious Rare Card.

Even she could not afford that card.

What the hell.

Yet You Chen paid it no mind and casually placed down another card. "I Normal Summon Assassin of Instant Kill."

As soon as he spoke, a flash of light appeared in his Monster Zone.

A dark-skinned, one-eyed man emerged, bare-chested and draped in a red scarf. He held a short blade and crouched low, as though he would burst forward at any moment.

Assassin of Instant Kill DARK Attribute/Four Stars/Fiend-Type ATK: 2000/DEF: 2000

"This card's effect reduces its ATK and DEF by 400 times the number of cards in my hand."

"So its current ATK and DEF are both 0."

After You Chen explained it, not only were the bystanders confused, but Poison Wolf himself furrowed his brow. He could not understand what You Chen was trying to do at all.

Even a Three-Star Duelist could not understand this play.

This showed just how unconventional You Chen's deck-building ideas were.

Hua Ningning's bright eyes were filled with confusion as well.

She tried hard to think of his next move, but no matter how she considered it,

she still could not figure it out.

"Then I activate the Equip Spell Card Bow of Shooting Star - Flare Flame! I equip it to Assassin of Instant Kill."

"The equipped monster loses 1000 ATK. The equipped monster can attack my opponent directly."

The moment he said that, Poison Wolf sensed that something was wrong. What was this guy trying to do?
