Are these cards authentic? (Seeking follow-up reading!!!)

One hundred and fifty thousand.

This was the final compensation price Shen Sui negotiated.

The Soul Card Association was so generous because they were in the wrong.

After all, banning a card belonging to a student who hadn't even become a professional player yet was indeed hard to justify.

Looking at the huge sum of money added to his account, Shen Sui was instantly satisfied.

Sell cards? Sell what cards?

Could a 13-star card sell for one hundred and fifty thousand?

As expected, banned cards were the quickest way to make money. It was a pity there was a price limit in the country, otherwise Shen Sui would already be a multi-millionaire.

Shen Sui glanced at his Duel Instrument, wondering how he could get another card banned.

Perhaps the Heaven's Chosen Cup was an opportunity. Although the participants in the Heaven's Chosen Cup were amateur players, there were also many online celebrity Soul Card Masters among them. Defeating them might bring him popularity.

But Shen Sui still needed to control the extent. If a large number of cards in his deck were added to the banned list, even with Alice's astonishing card-drawing ability, he wouldn't be able to handle it.

Banned cards could be used in the Academy PK Competition, but not in the Ranking Tournament.

Shen Sui was still planning to break through the Ranking Tournament in one go to become a professional player and secure the Soul Card Association's basic income. If a key card was banned at this time, it would be very troublesome.

Forget it, he'd be a bit more reserved during the Heaven's Chosen Cup.

Thinking this, Shen Sui walked non-stop towards the academy's express delivery point. The laptop he had purchased had arrived.

No matter which world he was in, as long as his pockets were full, most of his troubles would automatically disappear.

"Shen Sui!"

Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded beside Shen Sui. He followed the sound and saw a slightly overweight boy running towards him.

"You are..." Shen Sui thought for a moment and said, "Yue Tao?"

"Haha, I didn't expect a big celebrity like you to still remember my name." Yue Tao scratched his head awkwardly.

"See, I told you we would become classmates," Shen Sui said with a smile.

"I was lucky, I drew a divine card and defeated the examiner," Yue Tao said. "And my examiner had just been promoted to Tier 3, unlike you who directly defeated a Tier 5 Soul Card Master."

The two exchanged a few pleasantries.

Shen Sui walked straight towards his destination.

When he saw Yue Tao following him, he knew that the slightly overweight boy probably had something to talk to him about.

"Are you looking for me for something?" Shen Sui asked directly.

Unlike Shen Sui, Yue Tao didn't have the experience of entering society from his previous life. After his thoughts were exposed, he immediately hesitated.

"It's like this," Yue Tao said. "I don't know if telling you this is a good thing, it might make you feel uncomfortable..."

"Uncomfortable?"

"Yeah." Yue Tao nodded, leaned closer to Shen Sui, and whispered, "When I just came out of the club, I heard a group of people nearby discussing something about you... They said that your key card has been added to the association's banned list, and they also said something about you being so arrogant."

"Oh?" Shen Sui smiled faintly.

The banned list was released at the beginning of each month. It was only mid-June now, and the July banned list containing the Star Super Magic Array had not yet been released. The only people who could accurately know that this card would be added to the banned list at this time were the ones who reported it. The Soul Card Association had a clear response to every report.

Shen Sui had received a reply message from the Soul Card Association stating that the Star Super Magic Array would be added to the July banned list.

"This is your key card, isn't that combo only possible with this card? These people are too much, they're clearly classmates..." Yue Tao said indignantly.

"That's wrong," Shen Sui raised his hand and patted Yue Tao's shoulder, saying earnestly, "This Duel Academy isn't high school, there's no such thing as pure classmate relationships. Everyone is a potential competitor."

"It shouldn't be like this," Yue Tao said very seriously. "Even if we are competitors, we should get along harmoniously. If we want to defeat the other party, we should have a proper duel on the dueling field, not use such underhanded methods! Reporting the opponent's key card, this kind of behavior is too dirty!"

Ah...

Shen Sui, who had also reported the Star Super Magic Array, didn't know how to answer this question.

"Anyway, you still need to be careful," Yue Tao reminded kindly. "Don't let the card being banned affect your mindset. At least in the Academy PK Competition, your combo can still be used."

Shen Sui also understood the hidden meaning in Yue Tao's words.

Although this guy was as simple-minded as most high school graduates, he wasn't stupid. His words were clearly reminding Shen Sui that there was no need to bring out new things in the Academy PK Competition, and he should just continue using this combo.

"I was planning to do that," Shen Sui's mouth curved upwards. "By the way, can you tell me the names of the people who reported my card?"

Yue Tao said nervously, "Don't mess around, if you do anything irrational, you'll be expelled!"

It wasn't uncommon for students to have their key cards banned due to reports from classmates or roommates, and then summon their fists to directly attack the reporters, as reported in the news.

"Don't worry, Soul Card Masters resolve all conflicts through duels," Shen Sui patted his chest. "I'm broad-minded, I've already forgiven them. I just want to get to know them, and then in the Academy PK Competition, bring a smile to their faces."

There were no elimination rounds or anything in the Academy PK Competition. You just needed to keep finding duel opponents in the academy. When you won three duels in a row and were among the top ten in the PK Competition to achieve this, your Duel Instrument would remind you that you had obtained the qualification to challenge the coach.

Of course, since only the top three in a single PK Competition could have this qualification, when someone had two consecutive wins, someone would specifically run over and initiate a duel invitation to break that person's winning streak, commonly known as sniping. Since a duel invitation only required reporting the opponent's name to the match referee, there was no possibility of hiding and seeking, it all depended on luck.

When too many people challenged the same person at the same time, the referee would randomly select a match.

There were no champions or runners-up in this competition, only a points ranking. Winning a duel accumulated one point. Generally, those at the top of the points ranking would get the qualification to challenge, but if you were really unlucky, it wasn't impossible to win one match and lose one match and still appear on the points ranking.

In the PK Competition, students could not refuse other people's duel invitations.

Of course, the invited party also has a privilege, which is the freedom to choose whether to go first or second.

Yue Tao looked at the smiling Shen Sui and for some reason felt a chill.

The "bringing smiles" Shen Sui mentioned, was it legitimate?

Yue Tao still mentioned a few people he knew. Shen Sui kept these names in mind, and when the Academy PK Competition arrived, he would duel them one by one.

"Thank you for the reminder." Shen Sui found Yue Tao quite likable. He probably came specifically to remind Shen Sui about this matter. "If you need any help, you can come find me."

"Uh, if you're talking about needing help..." Yue Tao said somewhat awkwardly, "Actually, there is something I'd like to ask for your help with."

"What is it?" Shen Sui asked with a smile, seeing Yue Tao's embarrassed look.

"Your Soul Card world is also a fantasy world, right?" Yue Tao said. "I wonder if there are any elemental spirits in your Soul Card world."

"Elemental spirits? Oh, those little guys made of elements? Yes, there are."

"Really?" Yue Tao's eyes lit up. "Could you help me get a few Follower Cards of elemental spirits?"

As he spoke, he took out a card from his Duel Instrument: "I'll trade you this card."
