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

　However, after three minutes, someone finally couldn't help but step forward. "That's more like it! We're all users of Dragon decks, how can we be so timid?"

　A slight smile played at the corners of Dark's lips as he squinted slightly to observe. The duelist who emerged from the crowd was a refined-looking young man, probably around twenty-three or twenty-four years old.

　Many spectators were staring at him, which showed that he was not an unknown person.

　—Although Dark didn’t know his name.

　The young man was dressed relatively simply, in black on top and white on the bottom, with a dragon claw emblem embroidered on the chest of his black shirt. However, it was not the emblem of the "Dragon Claw Knights" that Dark knew.

　Judging from its texture, it could be the emblem of an adventurer's team or the badge of a Dragon Cancer Club.

　But at first glance, one could tell he was a mage who was devoted to dragons.

　The young man was quiet and unassuming.

　After he walked up to Dak, he simply showed his points card without announcing his name.

　Dak was happy to shut up and also showed his points card.

　Surprisingly, the young man also had a total score of 43 points, only 6 points lower than Dark.

　The two players have similar scores, which gives the impression that they are evenly matched.

　Therefore, after the score was presented, the young man's expression clearly changed.

　The noise from the audience also grew louder.

　"Begin," Dark asked.

　“Okay,” the young man nodded. His name was Servis.

　"Domain Deployment!" "Domain Deployment!"

　With the domains connected and the Life Card activated, a duel with no fluff officially began.

　Since it was a Dragon-type deck exclusive, Dark didn't have much to consider and directly brought out his White Dragon deck.

　Start with "Dragon Egg" and Special Summon "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" on the first turn. This standard method needs no further explanation.

　But when the "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" answers the call, that's when his identity will be revealed.

　—How could a Dragon fanatic not know "Blue-Eyes White Dragon"! Dark's White Dragon deck is already common knowledge in the Dragon fanatic community. Although many in this group only know "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" and not Dark Demon, once even one person knows, it quickly becomes known to everyone—that's the phenomenon of word-of-mouth. Exclamations of surprise immediately rang out from the audience.

　Within the dueling arena, Servis's eyes visibly brightened, and a slightly fanatical expression appeared on his face.

　He was even more excited than before!

　Dark starts by Special Summoning "Blue-Eyes White Dragon".

　Servis was not inferior at all; he was only a beat slower, but he summoned a nine-star dragon using his special method.

　It was a giant dragon, entirely emerald green, with horns resembling pine trees, scales etched with growth rings, and wings whose scales were even more peculiar, like slender leaves spread out. Its name was "Emerald Tree Dragon," a grass-type dragon.

　There is no type advantage/disadvantage between Light and Grass types. However, Dragon types are mutually super effective against each other.

　The battle between the two nine-star dragon species was exceptionally fierce.

　Dark's Blue-Eyes White Dragon has an advantage in terms of its three stats. However, the Emerald Dragon Spirit that Servis uses to Special Summon Emerald Tree Dragon will possess the Emerald Tree Dragon after it is summoned, providing it with additional stat boosts.

　This gives the Emerald Tree Dragon the right to challenge the Blue-Eyes White Dragon.

　In close combat, it is not advisable to use any special moves that require charging up before they can be released.

　Therefore, the "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" is directly a "dragon's reverse scale," showcasing its ferocity and power as a dragon species to the fullest extent.

　However, the Emerald Tree Dragon used its ultimate move, Emerald Gem, to create an emerald barrier on its body that resembled a gemstone. With its passive ability to regenerate health, it managed to withstand the Blue-Eyes White Dragon's frenzied attacks.

　Dark felt the pressure of the duel and gradually became more engaged.

Chapter 1502 The Dragon King Must Not Defeat (4k)

　Servis's "Emerald Tree Dragon" is undoubtedly a defensively specialized dragon species.

　Its ultimate move, "Emerald Gem," creates an emerald barrier that forms a layer of gemstone shell around the body. This not only greatly increases its defense but also provides a significant reduction in physical damage.

　Furthermore, the "Emerald Tree Dragon" can infuse its own magic into the "Emerald Barrier" to quickly repair it.

　Therefore, to break through the "Emerald Gem," in addition to having high attack power capable of damaging it, you also need an attack frequency that can outpace its repair speed.

　Furthermore, the "Emerald Tree Dragon" has its own life regeneration ability, which can continuously replenish its own magic power, making it even more difficult to break through its defenses.

　After the Blue-Eyes White Dragon used Dragon's Reverse Scale, although it possessed attack power exceeding the defense limit of Emerald Gem, it was still unable to shatter it in one blow.

　This gave the "Emerald Tree Dragon" time to repair the barrier.

　The Blue-Eyes White Dragon's destructive power is specifically designed to attack life and cannot prevent matter from repairing itself.

　If the "emerald gemstone" cannot be broken, its self-renewal cannot be prevented.

　However, its mana regeneration rate isn't particularly fast. If the Blue-Eyes White Dragon were allowed to attack at full speed, it definitely wouldn't be able to withstand it.

　Although it lacks sentience, it is not a stationary wooden stake. It can parry, dodge, and counterattack, and is surprisingly agile. This is not its own ability, but rather an ability granted by the "Emerald Dragon Spirit."

　Servis's "Emerald Dragon Spirit" is merely a one-star Magical Spirit card.

　However, its existence is similar to that of the magical beasts of St. Marian Academy. It not only displays its own characteristics but also possesses extremely special abilities.

　The offensive and defensive performance of the "Emerald Tree Dragon" is actually entirely controlled by the "Emerald Dragon Spirit".

　Servis and the Emerald Dragon Spirit are extremely close in spirit, and it is clear that they have formed a bond.

　As the duel continued, Dark's expression grew increasingly serious. Although the Blue-Eyes White Dragon held the upper hand in its battle against the Emerald Tree Dragon, it lacked the ability to regenerate mana.

　If the attack continues unsuccessfully, there is a risk of being worn down and killed by the "Emerald Tree Dragon".

　The "Blue-Eyes Baby Dragon" that hatched from the "Dragon Egg" was only a six-star purple card and did not have the "Hall of Light".

　Once the Blue-Eyes White Dragon is worn down to death by the Emerald Tree Dragon, it is truly dead.

　“There’s no other way, so I’ll have to summon the Blue-Eyes Priestess.” So, Dark summoned the Blue-Eyes Priestess – “Blue-Eyes Priestess, use the Shrine of Light.” And then light appeared in the duel arena.

　After that, Dark used "White Dragon Ritual" to offer "Blue-Eyes Priestess" as a sacrifice, activating White Dragon Ritual and adding two more "Blue-Eyes Dragon Eggs" from the deck to his hand.

　Then came the round of the three "Blue-Eyes White Dragons".

　Justice prevails over three against one.

　The situation turned around instantly.

　Servis's Emerald Tree Dragon is indeed powerful, possessing strength nearly equal to that of Blue-Eyes White Dragon. However, its special move is clearly not as fast as Darkrai's.

　As for whether he still has dagger peptide production, TP? When three "Blue-Eyes White Dragons" appeared in the sky above the field at the same time, this...

　The duel could already be declared over.

　Dark's "Blue-Eyes Deck" is already relatively strong in terms of searching and special effects.

　The only drawback is the lack of "Advanced Fusion," so the only way to increase the upper limit is to add "Fossil Aerodramus."

　Even so, he was not someone that an ordinary mage could contend with. Servis had put up a struggle, but unfortunately, in the end, he only became a stumbling block in Servis's path.

　After the duel ended, Dark's total score reached fifty points, but his ranking dropped instead of rising.

　It's clear that he has wasted too much time since he earned 49 points.

　However, if we can take down this Dragon King Arena, given its scoring efficiency, the wasted time can be made up immediately.

　Conversely, if you fail to win, you need to find the next way to quickly rack up points.

　Dark withdrew from the duel field, pondered for a moment, and then turned and walked towards the dragon's head.

　Winner takes all, loser for Kou.

　Although Servis's performance was not bad, he quickly lost the attention of some viewers after the defeat.

　The audience in this ring had almost completely been drawn to Dark Dimon, with many cheering and shouting excitedly as they followed Dark Dimon's figure toward the ring at the dragon's head.

　But at this moment, outside the duel area at the dragon's head, there was already a contestant waiting.

　Although Noah Sharp was standing there, he did not pay attention to the "Dragon King" Raqi who was dueling in the field. Instead, he turned his back to that side, facing the direction of the dragon's neck, and smiled and greeted Dark.

　He didn't pay attention to the other arena at first, since it was a duel that was temporarily irrelevant to him.

　But when the Blue-Eyes White Dragon answered the call, his gaze was fixed on it and he couldn't look away.

　He was dueling with another player at the time, and almost got caught off guard and lost because he was distracted. He breathed a slight sigh of relief after the match.

　However, after winning the battle, I can focus on watching Dark's duel more closely.

　There was no animosity between him and Dak; at most, they had different stances and served different people.

　The year I graduated, at the College Cup

　Although he was furious when Dark successfully challenged him despite being above his level, he later realized that it was all meaningless after calming down.

　The two sides were never on the same level to begin with.

　What he was trying his best to obtain, the other party had already possessed from birth.

　From status and bloodline to talent and ability, he was inferior to his opponent in every way, so what was the point of competing?

　Just based on hard work?

　But everyone at St. Marian Academy knows that Darkdemon is also exceptionally diligent and hardworking.

　If hard work is a talent, then Dark clearly possesses that talent as well.

　But should we just let our fighting spirit naturally fade away and admit that we will always be inferior to others?

　impossible.

　Absolutely impossible!

　Noah Sharp could withstand failure, but not perpetual failure. He rose from commoner to nobleman, from the masses to hero, all thanks to that spirit.

　That was his pride.

　He will not stop here, even if he cannot surpass it now. Even if everyone says it is impossible, he will keep moving forward.

　No one can define his future!

　After Noah Sharp smiled and greeted them, he turned to look at the duel between "Dragon King" Raiqi.

　Raqi Hodge's duel began before his and Dark's, but it is still not over.

　This is partly because his opponent's shell was harder than Servis's, making him, in some respects, a "master of defense."

　On the other hand, there is "Dragon King" Lei Qi, who does not have the strength to match his ranking.

　Noah Sharp's willingness to challenge him was by no means a blind act or a rash decision.

　He was well aware that there were many mages stronger than himself in this World Cup, but Reichocia was not one of them.

　The reason why Raqi Hogia was able to climb to seventh place in the rankings is simply because he found a way to quickly rack up points and took advantage of the players' fervent love for dragon-type magical spirits.

　But the game has come to an end.

　Even if he doesn't come, those players who are unhappy with his title of "Dragon King" will still come to challenge him.

　News of the arena had begun to spread during lunchtime. Noah Sharp was one of the fighters who came after hearing the news.

　He originally thought that after coming here, he would have a chance to meet the "White Dragon". He did meet it, but it wasn't the "White Dragon" he had imagined.

　But whatever.

　It doesn't matter whether it's him or her.

　Noah Sharp felt that he had successfully honed his mindset.

　He crossed his arms and waited quietly.

　His profile alone attracted a lot of attention. "The Night Baron" remains popular.

　Dark stood about five meters away from Noah Sharp. According to the default rules on Dragon Cliff, he had to wait until Noah Sharp challenged "Dragon King" Raqi before he could go up and duel with the "Dragon King" who was left in the arena.

　As for whether that "Dragon King" is new or old, that depends on who is stronger.

　He had initially assumed that Lei Qi, who had managed to climb to seventh place in the rankings, must possess professor-level strength. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to dominate Dragon Cliff for so long. Even after seeing Senior Noah Sharp's arrival, he only harbored slight doubts about the outcome of the match.

　But now, observing Reichholzia's duel up close, those doubts suddenly began to grow.

　Ultimately, the problem was that the duel dragged on for too long, resulting in a very poor viewing experience.

　Lei Qi's opponent was a player using the Nine-Star Dragon Turtle.

　He had already summoned three dragon turtles on the field and used the special magic card "Link Defense" to link them together into an impenetrable wall.
