The villainous young master just wants to live a Buddhist-like life.

　It is an ultra-rare magic card that can infuse the power of stars into the body of a magical spirit, enabling it to undergo a transformation.

　But before today, everyone had seen that Dark Dimon's [Celestial Spirit Card] could at most make magic users...

　The elf has been promoted to seven stars.

　Although the Seven Stars also belong to the third tier, they give people a completely different feeling than the Nine Stars.

　Perhaps because that situation lasted for so long, many people have forgotten that Dark Dimon's [Celestial Spirit Card] was also gradually upgraded.

　James Gardson was clearly the same.

　However, just now, Dark Dimon used a new [Star Spirit Card] to forcibly upgrade the original six-star [Wu Tu Beast] to nine stars!

　A nine-star magical spirit!

　Even in their sixth grade, most of them regarded Nine Stars as their strongest trump card.

　However, Dark Deemon achieved this breakthrough with just one [Star Spirit Card]!

　Currently, the one that has been upgraded to nine stars is the Magical Spirit that was originally upgraded to six stars.

　But can that [Star Spirit Card] really only upgrade a six-star magical spirit to nine stars?

　Obviously not.

　James Gardson clasped his hands together, rested his chin on his hand, and looked serious.

　He believed that the [Star Spirit Card] could definitely upgrade a three-star magical spirit to nine stars!

　Two Magic Spirit cards are enough to summon a powerful nine-star Magic Spirit.

　This advantage, which can be gained in magical duels, can drive opponents to despair.

　"It hasn't been long since our last duel, and he's become even more terrifying!"

　"How exactly were those [Star Spirit Cards] forged? Was it merely by refining the power of stars?"

　That's obviously impossible.

　"Otherwise, someone should have already completed the process before him."

　"There must be something here that no one else can replicate!"

　"I heard he keeps a lot of cat grass. Could the key be the cat grass?"

　James Gardson truly lives up to his reputation as a potions expert, possessing an extraordinary sensitivity to plants.

　His thoughts began with this and gradually began to diverge.

　But the duel on the field will not stop because of his distraction.

　Although the Great Ape King has abandoned cold weapons, it has inherited the core ultimate skills of the three generals.

　It also belongs to the ape-man warrior lineage and has an innate fighting instinct.

　Claudia Meg failed to forge a nine-star magical spirit; this [Great Ape King] was the only one she could summon.

　The only one with nine stars.

　Her good luck with the cards today even made her think, "I can win." But after the [Antilo Beast] appeared, she quickly suppressed that thought.

　"As expected of Dark Dimon!"

　Claudia Meg's eyes lit up as she gripped a magic card in her hand and roared, "Great Ape King, Ape Soul Power!"

　The Great Ape King in the arena suddenly took a step forward, the ground beneath its feet shattering with violent force.

　A [monkey spirit], only slightly larger than its own size, burst out from its body and then attached itself to it.

　The Great Ape King, whose magic and defense were slightly inferior to the Antiro Beast, was immediately strengthened.

　Its defense, which was already superior to that of the [Antilo Beast], was further enhanced!

　The next instant, it clenched its right fist and, with a forward lunge, launched itself like a rocket towards...

　The [Antiro Beast] galloped up to them in an instant!

　[Antiro Beast]'s fighting spirit surged, and the "qi" within its body suddenly flowed through its right arm, transforming both arms into sharp, unparalleled forms.

　Bi's [Treasure Axe], carrying an attack power of 6000 points, slashed fiercely towards the [Great Ape King].

　The moment the two sides clashed, it was as if thunder had struck the earth, with the sound of metal clashing resounding endlessly.

　Each punch from the Great Ape King was powerful and heavy, its fists enveloped in a unique golden light, making them almost as strong as steel. The Antiro Beast's treasure axe was unable to cleave them!

　"Antilomon, Swordleaf Forest!"

　[Antiro Beast] narrowed its eyes, suddenly twisted its feet, and its entire body transformed into a tornado, its hands (treasure axes)

　A layer of gleaming blade light appeared on it, then it suddenly spun around, the blade light of the [Treasure Axe] slashing with incredible speed as it spun.

　The blow landed on the Great Ape King.

　But the Great Ape King's muscles bulged, and with a slam of his fists, a steel-like light suddenly appeared on his body.

　The radiance rapidly expanded, transforming into an iron wall, causing the entire blade of the [Treasure Axe] to strike it.

　Only a few shallow marks were left on the top!

　Dark had already witnessed this ultimate move once before; it was the [Yellow-haired General's] [I'll cover the rear!]!

　The "I'll Cover the Rear" skill has two effects: one is a basic increase in defense, and the other is the creation of steel.

　The Iron Wall has the special effect of blocking enemies.

　However, neither of these effects lasts for long.

　On the contrary, the golden light that had enveloped the fist lasted for an extremely long time!

　"Could it be a special attack that the [Blue-Haired General] has never used before?"

　Dak was moved, but continued to observe.

　A few seconds later, he finally understood the golden light effect.

　Originating from the [Blue-haired General], the [Rule of Justice] can balance the power of both sides in close combat, making the [Great Ape King] forever invincible!

　The effects of this [Rite of Justice] certainly have their limitations. However, given the attacks of [Antilomon] and [Great Ape King]...

　The power gap is clearly not outside of these limitations.

　Dach's mind raced as he quickly devised a solution.

　【Antilomon】is a master of melee combat and will never be at a disadvantage in close-quarters attacks, but that (Great Ape King)

　Although it is ferocious and violent, its ultimate move makes it more like a piece of chewy taffy, which is a perfect counter to close-range attacks.

　A combatant.

　The strongest finishing move of the [Antilomon], [Spell Hymn], also requires close-range attack and cannot be guaranteed to hit the target.

　It will definitely be effective.

　“We can only give it a try!”

　Thinking of this, Dark decisively said, "Antilomon, Psychic Shock!"

　[Antilo Beast] immediately turned around and kicked [Great Ape King], using the recoil to create some distance.

　He leaped away, then landed immediately, braced his hands, and suddenly concentrated his mental energy, releasing a mental energy wave targeting his brain.

　This is its only ranged finishing move!

　A white light, almost tangible, burst forth in that instant.

　The blazing white beam of light pierced through space and struck the Great Ape King's forehead with lightning speed.

　The roar of the Great Ape King abruptly ceased!

　In that instant, Dark realized that his guess was likely to come true.

　And indeed it happened.

　Under the gaze of thousands, the Great Ape King, who had suddenly frozen in place after being hit by the [Mental Shock], had red, yellow and blue lights emanating from its body one after another.

　The enormous body of the Great Ape King inexplicably disintegrated!

　As the three-colored light burst outwards like fireworks, the Great Ape King vanished from the arena.

　At the point where the three-colored light converged, the [Red-haired General], [Yellow-haired General], and [Blue-haired General] appeared again.

　Gather!

　"The fusion of the three-color warriors has actually been broken."

　On the red corner, Claudia Meg's eyes almost popped out of her head.

　She had considered that her "Great Ape King" might not be a match for Dark, but she never imagined it would be like this.

　The method has been cracked!

　"What kind of ultimate technique did that rabbit use? Can my generals reunite?"

　Claudia Meg glanced at her hand, feeling utterly hopeless, when suddenly she heard a "tick" sound. Startled, she instinctively drew a card. And just like that, a new [Hundred-Man Arena] card was in her hand.

　The summoning and fusion of the three types of generals both require the use of the [Hundred-Person Arena].

　Claudia Meg has never tried before: can the Great Ape King reunite after being forcibly disintegrated?

　Although the fusion time is inherently limited, and there is a cooldown after disintegration, this kind of fusion time limit is not present.

　This was the first time we had encountered a situation where something was forcibly dismantled upon arrival.

　Therefore, she couldn't help but retain a glimmer of hope.

　However, summoning the [Hundred-Person Martial Arts Arena] requires more than just the three-second summoning time; she needs to eliminate...

　Spend more time infusing it with enough magic.

　Therefore, if one wishes to test this in this duel, one must endure the period that follows.

　Claudia Meg thought very quickly and came to a conclusion in the blink of an eye.

　However, Dak Dimon's response was equally swift.

　Almost the instant the Great Ape King disintegrated, Dark gave orders to Antilomon and Rexmon.

　The order for a fast break was given.

　He didn't draw any cards after that, but immediately began to summon the [Single Sword Sheath (Weapon Form)], preparing to control the [Single Sword Sheath] to attack the red player's magic orb and cleanly win this duel!

　The disassembled tri-color warriors are no match for [Antilomon] and [Rexmon], unless Klaue...

　Dia Meg still has a trump card, otherwise the outcome of this duel would have been a foregone conclusion.

　Among the spectators, many had already grasped the situation and cheered for him on the spot.

　"Keep someone under control!"

　Suddenly, Claudia Meg, the red team player on the platform, shouted.

　Dak was taken aback.

　The [Antilomon] and [Rexmon], who were brutally beating three generals in the arena, also stopped their actions.

　Seeing this, Claudia Meg quickly said, "I admit defeat! I admit defeat!"

　"Beep-"

　Almost the instant she conceded defeat, the referee blew his whistle.

　"Second year? Noble Academy? Dark Dimon vs. Sixth year? Fools Academy? Claudia Meg."

　"The winner: Dark Dimon!"

　The applause was thunderous.

　Although the way this duel ended was somewhat unexpected, the audience certainly saw something different.

　They would also welcome such a duel.

　Darko Dimon always seems to bring unexpected surprises.

　While the audience cheered, the contestants in the arena did not actually stop.

　Even after conceding defeat, Claudia Meg still summoned a second [Hundred-Man Arena].

　She then immediately issued a command to the three generals to combine—but the combination failed.
