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

　If the previous Hank Willard was like a raging giant bear, then now he is a giant bear from the 8th realm.

　He was somewhat surprised: "What happened?"

　After his attitude changed, Hank Willard clearly became more difficult to deal with.

　Dark took the deck out of his card pack, placed it in the card slot on the table, activated it, and said, "Senior Willard, no one's been bullying you, right?"

　This unexpected question not only baffled Hank Willard himself, but also brought laughter to the audience.

　After a brief moment of stunned silence, Hank Willard suddenly snapped, "Shut your mouth! You don't want Robert to get bullied, do you?" Darke chuckled, "I suggest you use a little more force." Robert, who had been watching the spectacle from the ring belt, was completely dumbfounded.

　Hank Willard roared, "Don't think you can anger me like this. This won't give you an advantage. Three rounds, you only have three rounds left to live!"

　Dark: "I understand, I understand, my life is already hanging by a thread." In the players' lounge, Shrek Holmes, standing at the window, suddenly clutched his head: "Damn it, all that lecture was for nothing!"

　Hank Willard finally uttered the same boast he'd already told himself to death in public.

　That angry roar became the clarion call that ignited this fierce duel.

　The audience naturally enjoyed watching the contestants compete, but the supporters of both sides were not so friendly.

　In some of the branch venues, small-scale incidents even occurred where fans from both sides threw trash at each other.

　Outraged supporters placed a massive bet on the betting platform!

　"Both players are in position, proceeding to the preparation phase!"

　The referee's whistle suddenly blew, and the words "Preparation Phase" appeared in the sky.

　Both players focused their attention, placed their fingers on their decks, and waited for the "30 seconds" countdown to begin.

　v

　"Preparation Phase" [30s]

　The battle begins!

　Both players draw cards simultaneously.

　Dark quickly spread out his hand in his left hand and looked at it intently.

　At this moment, his mindset was actually quite calm, but his desire to win this duel became even stronger.

　Young people always need some vigor. He looked at his hand of cards.

　v

　"Pot Pot" [Bu Pa]

　[Cursed Cage: Gabumon] [Dream Fairy]

　[Fantasy Beast: Fusion Cursed Creature - Dragon]

　"Haha, this kind of thing happens all the time, doesn't it?" When you walk by the river, you're bound to get your shoes wet.

　It's better to draw five Tier 1 Magical Spirit cards from your starting hand in the first round than to draw five Tier 2 or 3 Magical Spirit cards in one go.

　Isn't that right?

　Thinking of this, Dak couldn't help but laugh.

　But Hank Willard, who was opposite him, frowned sharply after hearing his laughter, instinctively thinking that he must have drawn an excellent hand.

　Those who have studied Dark Demon have long wanted to witness firsthand the power of his signature decks when his luck is at its peak.

　Hank Willard's vigilance was heightened to the extreme!

　This led him, who always started with a strong attack, to make some different choices this time.

　v

　[Battle Phase (1)][30s]

　/

　Turns change, battle phase begins!

　Both players, without a doubt, began casting normal summons. Dark drew a card from his hand and quickly summoned a minion.

　"In the name of Dark Deemon, I summon—'Shuttle'!" The little devils come and go, but Shuttle remains.

　Dark started with "Potpot" as usual, then immediately looked up to observe his opponent. Hank Willard was known as "The Beast," not for his appearance, but for a title earned through sheer hard-fought battles in magical duels.

　He built a very unique deck centered around the orcs from the "demi-human" race.

　"In the name of Hank Willard, a magical summoning—[Mobile Fortress]"

　A massive summoning circle rapidly unfolded on the blue team's field.

　Points of light formed from condensed earth elements rose from beneath the ground, and a steel fortress with a diameter of about four meters materialized in the light of summoning.

　That wasn't a special magical spirit, but rather a building-type item card that Hank Willard usually used!

　When this "mobile fortress" was summoned, Hank Willard's supporters immediately shouted.

　The members of the "Sports Club" watching from the ring also cheered for him.

　Clearly, this "mobile fortress" must be incredibly effective.

　Dark quickly thought it through, preparing to begin the summoning (bupa) in three seconds.

　0

　"Huhu" is responsible for defense, while "Buyao" is responsible for attack.

　This is the limit of what he can achieve with all five cards in his hand right now. Next, he can consider summoning "Dream Spirit," which would bring all three three-star magical spirits to the field.

　Of course, if there is any leeway, it is best to keep one or two Magic Spirit cards and adjust your strategy in the next round based on the two new Magic Spirit cards you draw.

　However, he also considered that if Hank Willard continued his aggressive style, he might have a hard time getting through the early game.

　Who knows, he might just take them all down in one fell swoop—

　"Bap pap pap!"

　"Potpot" seemed to respond to him, chirping a few times. Then it extended its tentacles to protect the red magic orb. One man against a thousand.

　Meanwhile, the "mobile fortress" summoned by Hank Willard was slowly advancing towards the red team's field, driven by its internal mechanisms.

　That "mobile fortress" has a defense of up to 3000 points, and its wall durability is equivalent to 3000 points of magic power. Its attribute is steel.

　It possesses an additional ultimate skill, "Phantom Shift," which grants it the ability to instantly teleport.

　This was an impregnable steel fortress for the first-tier magical elves.

　Starting with a summon makes you almost invincible!

　In the mid-to-late game, it can also serve as a shield in crucial moments.

　The two players exchanged a glance and immediately began their second summoning the moment their usual summoning spells were off cooldown.

　"In the name of Dark Dimon, a magical summoning—'Bubu'!" "In the name of Hank Willard, a magical summoning—[Lancer Array]!"

　In the red team's summoning area, a lazy-looking gray "Bupa" materialized from the summoning light. It glanced around, then suddenly flipped its palm, pulled out a glittering gold coin, flicked it with its thumb, and played with it high in the air.

　"Hmm, all that's missing from the railgun is the electromagnetic railgun!" Dark shouted the order. "Let's go, boom boom!"

　"Meow—" Wei Bu grinned in response, then leaned forward and suddenly charged out.

　Meanwhile, in the blue team's summoning zone.

　The "spearman array" summoned by Hank Willard was lined up in a row, consisting of a full twelve orc spearmen!

　"Legion-type Magic Card!"

　A faint gasp could be heard from outside the stadium.

　Hank Willard's "Spearman Array" is an ultra-rare legion-type magic spirit card with a total of twelve units. The orc spearmen summoned from it are all at the standard level of a three-star magic spirit.

　However, they must be combined with magic cards such as "Great Release" to break down into twelve independent individuals, so they cannot be used as sacrifices on their own.

　Moreover, the individual stats of this orc spearman are there, but they are only at the standard level of a three-star magic elf.

　v

　【Card Name: Spearman Formation (Single Target)】[Type: Elf Card]

　【等级：6o6】「种族：亚人种」【属性：格斗系】（魔力：1000】[攻击：1400）【防御：400】

　[Ultimate Skills: Battle Formation Aura, Bone Spear]

　The "Spearman Formation" increases attack power by 50 points for every two Orc spearmen in a group, and by 300 points for every twelve Orc spearmen in a group.

　The Bone Spear increases attack power by 200 points and has a bloodlust effect.

　With these multiple buffs, each orc spearman's attack power can be increased to 1900 points, and with each attack, 10% of the damage can be converted into magic absorption.

　Hank Willard didn't have any cards like "Great Liberation" in hand at the moment. But after summoning "Spearman Array," he immediately issued orders.

　Twelve spearmen immediately surged into the fortress.

　The middle section of the "mobile fortress" immediately folded upwards, revealing a row of windows.

　Each spearman came to a window, raised his "bone spear," and the sharpness of the spear tip was faintly visible.

　"I'll finish you off in one round!"

　Hank Willard stared at the magic orb still floating in the red team's summoning zone and muttered to himself.

　His voice was amplified.

　Then, in an instant, a summoning circle appeared beneath the "Mobile Fortress"—"Phantom Shift"!

　"coax!"

　A loud bang came from the blue side's half of the map. The "Mobile Fortress" suddenly disappeared from its original spot, and in an instant, it teleported to the red side's summoning area with a full twelve orc spearmen!

　Just then, "Bupa" ran out, and "Jug" guarded the magic orb. "Mobile Fortress" suddenly teleported in front of "Jug," almost face to face with it.

　"Stab!"

　Hank Willard roared, like a general issuing a command. From the "mobile fortress" directly facing "Jug" and the red team's magic ball, six spears shot out like lightning!

　These six beast bone spears, each shrouded in a faint aura of blood, thrust out with unparalleled ferocity!

　"Potpot" swiftly retracted its head, and one of the beast bone spears almost grazed its head, piercing through the air.

　But the other five spears all bypassed it and thrust towards the "Red Magic Ball".

　If these five shots hit, they will deal 1900x5 damage, enough to shatter the red team's Magic Orb's life barrier instantly!

　For inexperienced duelists who are unable to react in time, this could be a fatal blow.

　But Hank Willard was dreaming too much.

　In the instant that the match was about to end, the red player suddenly unleashed an extremely terrifying magical fluctuation on the stage.

　The red magic ball, which was about to be pierced, accelerated almost instantly and avoided the five simultaneous thrusts!

　Darko Dimon, however, was prepared.

　"The 'Mobile Fortress' only has the ability to 'Apparate' once. Once that 'Apparition' is lured out, it will be mostly useless."

　"The 'Spearman Formation' cannot break through the 'Potpot's' defenses, so we can ignore it for now."

　"At this point, the blue team's half of the court is no longer protected by magical sprites. I will attack the blue team's magical ball with 'Scream,' and Hank Willard will definitely control the magical ball to fly into the air to dodge."

　"At this point, I'll summon 'Dream Spirit' again to chase down the blue team's Magic Orb from the air."

　"In terms of the situation, the blue team will be at a disadvantage."

　"Hank Willard will be furious and will try to retaliate." "But it doesn't matter, no matter how he retaliates, I have a backup plan." Dark spoke very quickly, and "Bubu" had already pounced into the blue side's half of the court. As expected, Hank Willard manipulated the blue side's magic ball to fly into the air.

　The "Dream Demon" was summoned, squealing excitedly as it flew towards the blue team's magic orb. Hank Willard, seeing this—who had been burning with rage—felt as if doused with cold water, and looked quite disheveled.

　However, he still followed Dark's advice and performed a third summon at the end of the first round.

　But this time, the summoning was quite powerful. He charged up for about ten seconds.

　"In the name of Hack Willard, the Magic Platform roars—Jiang P"

　Spell Card? Frenzied Bloodlust, a high-ranking spell card that can only be used when there is an Orc on the field.

　It has a range of five to six meters and an attack distance that easily exceeds one hundred meters, but its power decreases as the distance increases.

　However, eliminating a magic spirit with less than 3000 points of defense and magic power is more than enough!

　Before the "Dream Demon" could react, it was stunned by the deafening roar of the beast. Before it could even release the "Fear Gem", it was swallowed up by the shockwave of the "Raging Blood Beast Roar".
