"Oh yeah? Let's see if you even survive first!"

Tyrannosaurus Rex, as expected, ignored You Chen's words.

"I activate the effect of Lost World."

"Once per turn, if a Normal Monster on the field would be destroyed by battle or card effect, you can destroy that many Dinosaur-Type monsters from your hand or Deck instead."

"So, as a substitute, I can choose two Dinosaur-Type monsters from my Deck!"

"I choose two Babycerasaurus!"

Suddenly, two more Babycerasaurus from the Deck were destroyed and sent to the Graveyard.

Even from the Deck, they couldn't escape their fate of destruction.

In a sense, Babycerasaurus were even more tragic than Warm Worm.

And just like that! As soon as Babycerasaurus entered the Graveyard, they transformed into white vengeful spirits, rising from the Graveyard and passing directly through Tyrannosaurus Rex!

As if seeking revenge on Tyrannosaurus Rex.

600 Life Points!

In an instant, due to the effect of Lure of the Dead, Tyrannosaurus Rex's Life Points dropped to 2400.

"Having Life Points remaining is the difference between having them and not!"

"These chip damage methods are insignificant!"

"I activate the effect of Babycerasaurus! I Special Summon Frost Brachiosaurus and King Rex from my Deck!!"

In an instant, two more beams of light erupted in Tyrannosaurus Rex's Monster Zones.

First to appear was a giant long-necked dragon covered in ice crystals, with layers of ice crystals forming on its body, and its back rose up like an iceberg, emanating a chilling aura.

Frost Brachiosaurus WATER/Level 6/Dinosaur/Effect ATK: 2600 / DEF: 1700

On the other side, another King Rex appeared.

"Also, due to the effect of Lost World, I can Special Summon two Jurraegg Tokens to your field!"

At this moment, You Chen's Monster Zones were completely filled.

This field state, to many, was already quite sinister, almost suffocating.

"You must be curious how I plan to attack?"

"You wouldn't think that just because you have Eggs on your field, I can't attack, that it's my weakness, would you?"

Tyrannosaurus Rex showed a hint of a smile at this moment.

You Chen: "."

In fact, he wasn't curious at all.

He was already well-accustomed to these tactics.

And if it was truly the tactic he expected, then it was exactly what he wanted.

However, to play along with Tyrannosaurus Rex, You Chen still responded, "I am indeed very curious. Please begin your performance."

Tyrannosaurus Rex suddenly raised his large hand, his eyes instantly turning sharp, and he roared, "I activate the Spell Card Card Reverser from my hand!!"

"Discard 1 card from your hand to activate. Change the battle position of all monsters on your opponent's field."

"Everything is according to my plan, and this card will be the cause of your defeat."

The appearance of this card immediately made everyone present's expressions change drastically.

Mi quickly explained at this moment, "This is bad. Once the cards are reversed, all monsters on You Chen's field will be flipped face-up."

"The four Eggs have 0 ATK, they're just sitting ducks!"

"Although the two monsters Babycerasaurus Special Summoned cannot attack this turn, King Rex's ATK is already enough to finish You Chen off."

"Not to mention it can attack twice in one turn!"

"Unless there's a Set card that can have a miraculous effect!"

Tyrannosaurus Rex's offense and field setup were undoubtedly textbook examples, with power and pressure that were truly suffocating.

Many students tried to put themselves in You Chen's shoes and might have already surrendered.

However, despite this situation, You Chen remained very calm, as if nothing could affect his emotional fluctuations.

Or rather, nothing was enough to affect his emotions.

Many people even looked at him, and whether it was an illusion or not, You Chen seemed to be on the verge of laughter?

Duoduo, the commentator, suddenly said, "There's something I want to say, but I'm not sure if I should. I just saw You Chen looking like he wanted to laugh."

Mi said, "Huh? Really? Was it a bitter laugh?"

As they were discussing, You Chen's monsters on the field all switched to Attack Position, including, of course, the face-down monster that had been there the whole time.

The moment it flipped up, it was a Needle Worm!

A worm with a single horn on its head.

Needle Worm EARTH/Level 2/Insect/Flip ATK: 750/DEF: 600

"I guessed right after all. These eggs on the field, while they hindered me, would also become an obstacle to your offense. Therefore, you must have a card that changes battle positions."

"And my Needle Worm has been waiting a long time."

"Thank you. I activate Needle Worm's effect: when this card is flipped, I can send the top 5 cards from your Deck to the Graveyard."

"Let me help you mill your Deck. You're a little slow." You Chen said with a light chuckle.

It was then that Tyrannosaurus Rex realized that Card Reverser had actually helped You Chen? And You Chen had anticipated it beforehand?

No wonder he was smiling.

How was that possible? Could anyone really think that far ahead?

Tyrannosaurus Rex didn't believe it, or rather, couldn't believe it.

Five cards were sent from the top of the Deck to the Graveyard all at once.

1500 LP!

Another reduction in Life Points!

"Ah!!" Tyrannosaurus Rex gnashed his back teeth and couldn't help but cry out.

His Life Points were down to 900 LP.

At this moment, he realized that You Chen, whom he had somewhat looked down upon earlier, had now reduced his Life Points to 900 LP.

"What I wanted was destruction, not sending to the Graveyard!"

"And there are so many cards that change battle positions, how did you know I was using Card Reverser?"

Tyrannosaurus Rex's blood pressure started to rise.

Emotion Value +350!!

After all, how was he down to only 900 LP?

And on top of that low LP, his opponent was even saying he was helping him mill his Deck.

He didn't need to mill his Deck, okay?

"But it doesn't matter! With this one attack, you are sure to lose!"

"Battle Phase!!"

"Your petty tricks ultimately won't win!"

Tyrannosaurus Rex was furious, pointing a finger.

You Chen seemed to have realized something and, maintaining a faint smile, said, "Is that really so? I activate the Trap Card, Messenger of Peace!"

"This turn, my monsters cannot be destroyed by battle, and any battle damage I take becomes 0."

"Sorry, this turn you can't destroy my monsters, and you won't take any battle damage."

"And to respond to what you just said."

"It's true it wasn't necessarily Card Reverser."

"But if it were a face-down flip effect, it would be easily destroyed, which isn't good for a one-turn kill. Therefore, a Spell Card would be the first choice."

"And Card Reverser is the first choice."

"And even if you didn't use this card, it wouldn't matter to me. The result is still that you can't break through my defense."

You Chen raised his profound eyes, explaining it casually.

When he finished speaking, everyone present realized that this You Chen wasn't simple after all.

In fact, he saw many things more clearly than anyone else.

But his appearance of being wise disguised as foolish led others to underestimate him.

Xiao Shan's eyes gleamed as he watched.

Tyrannosaurus Rex also raised an eyebrow, finally taking him seriously.

"I underestimated you!"

"But it's useless!"

"Activate face-down card! Counter Trap Card, Trap Jammer!!"

"Can only be activated during the Battle Phase. Negates the activation of an opponent's Trap Card and destroys it."

The tide of the duel turned once again!

Tyrannosaurus Rex revealed a chilling smile, determined to finish You Chen this turn!

No one could have imagined there would be so many twists and turns in this duel!

"King Rex attacks Jurraegg Token!! Hahaha!! Be annihilated!"

Tyrannosaurus Rex's laughter was uncontrollable as King Rex charged forward!

The author can state that I will try my best not to stick to overly formulaic plotlines, but there are some unavoidable parts. Still, I'll try to keep every duelist's intelligence online, otherwise it won't be good to read.

The worldbuilding is grand and will gradually unfold. Any suggestions are welcome.
