Yu-Gi-Oh!: Ultimate Duelist

As the duel ended, the teacher on the duel field announced, "This duel is won by Lin Hao from the first year of high school and he will advance to the next round."

After Lin Hao and Jia Zong left the duel, the presiding teacher continued, "Next, Huang Yao from the first year of high school will face Lu Xiaochuan from the third year of high school. Please come on stage, both students."

……

Lu Xiaochuan and Huang Yao stood facing each other, their eyes burning with fighting spirit.

Soon, the duel began, with Lu Xiaochuan attacking first.

Lu Xiaochuan narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes revealing determination and confidence. He stretched out his hand and said, "My turn, draw a card."

Looking at the newly drawn card in his hand, he thought for a moment and then took decisive action.

He flicked his wrist, and a card slid out. "In Defense Position, summon [Seagod's Witch] (ATK 700/DEF 2000). Activate its effect: As long as this card is face-up on the field, the Terrain on the field is [Sea]. This effect does not apply if there are Terrain Cards on the field."

After saying that, he gently placed a card on its back and inserted it into the duel disk. Then he crossed his arms over his chest and said seriously, "My turn is over."

"My turn, draw a card."

Huang Yao's expression was as calm as water, without a trace of emotion. She gracefully reached out and drew the card, her movements gentle and smooth.

Looking at the card in her hand, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing an imperceptible smile.

"Activate the Spell Card [Shield Break], its effect is: Select 1 monster in Defense Position on the field and destroy it. The monster I want to select is your [Poseidon's Miko] in Defense Position on the field."

In an instant, the card that Huang Yao had just activated shot out a golden light. The light was like an extremely sharp arrow, whizzing directly through the monster in defense position on Lu Xiaochuan's field.

[The Poseidon's Witch] let out a shrill scream, and instantly turned into pieces and disappeared.

Huang Yao raised her chin slightly, a hint of pride in her eyes. "Summon [Hawk 1] (ATK 1300/DEF 1400) in Attack Position. Its effect is: Treat this card's name as [Hawk]. As long as this card is on the field, all WIND monsters on the field gain 300 ATK."

"Then activate the Equip Spell Card [Windwings]. Its effect is: Only Beast-Type monsters can equip this. The equipped monster's ATK and DEF increase by 300."

At this moment, she spread her hands slightly, as if everything was under her control.

"During the Battle Phase, since you have no monsters on the field, [Harpie 1] (ATK 1900/DEF 1400) attacks the player directly."

In an instant, Lu Xiaochuan's health points dropped from 4000 to 2100.

But Lu Xiaochuan just frowned slightly, his eyes still firm.

Huang Yao crossed her arms, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and said, "I'm covering a card on the field. The turn is over."

Lu Xiaochuan took a deep breath, and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes.

He reached out and drew the card, his movements steady and powerful.

Looking at the card in his hand, his lips curled up slightly, revealing a confident smile. "Activate the effect of [Warrior of Atlantis] in your hand. Discard this card from your hand to the Graveyard. Add 1 [Legendary City of Atlantis] from your deck to your hand."

Then, Lu Xiaochuan took out his deck from the duel disk and took out a card.

His movements were skillful and decisive, as if everything was under his control.

Then, he said loudly, "Activate the Field Spell Card [Legendary City of Atlantis]. Its effect is: This card's name is treated as [Sea]. Reduce the Level of Water monsters in your hand and on the field by 1. Increase the ATK and DEF of Water monsters on the field by 200."

In an instant, the duel arena turned into a world of the ocean, with turbulent waves constantly hitting the reefs, beautiful coral reefs swaying in the sea water, and strange marine creatures swimming around, like a mysterious ocean kingdom.

Lu Xiaochuan stared at the field with a determined look and said loudly, "Summon the [Legendary Fisherman] in Attack Position (Attack 1850/Defense 1600)."

His eyes were fixed on the situation on the field, ready to respond at any time.

“进入战斗阶段，【传说的渔人】(攻 2050/守 1800)攻击【鹰身女郎 1】(攻 1900/守 1400)”。

At this moment, Huang Yao's eyes glared, and she quickly said, "Activate the Trap Card [Universal Mine Broadsword] on my field. Its effect is: When your opponent's monster attacks, destroy the monster with the highest ATK among your opponent's Attack Position monsters."

Lu Xiaochuan, however, showed no fear at all. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a confident smile. "Activate the Trap Card [Trap Interference Array]. Its effect is: This card can only be activated when the opponent activates a Trap Card during the Battle Phase. It negates the activation of the Trap Card and destroys it."

With the destruction of [Harpie 1], Huang Yao's health dropped to 3850 points.

Lu Xiaochuan was full of vigor at this moment. He crossed his arms, raised his chin slightly, and said, "I'm covering a card on the field. The round is over."

Huang Yao took a deep breath and drew a card. She frowned slightly, then after a moment's thought, quickly summoned a face-down monster to the field in Defense Position. Then, she hurriedly ended her turn, seemingly plotting some mysterious strategy.

"My turn, draw a card."

Lu Xiaochuan looked extremely excited, with a fiery light flashing in his eyes.

He shouted, "Due to the effect of the Terrain Spell card on my field, the Level 5 monster in my hand has been reduced by 1, becoming a Level 4 monster. Therefore, I summon [Cruiser Shark] (ATK 2000/DEF 2400) in Attack Position."

In an instant, an amazing monster appeared on Lu Xiaochuan's field.

The Cruiser Shark's body is a typical shark streamlined shape, with extremely smooth lines, as if it was carefully built to move through the water at the fastest speed.

Its main color is deep blue, which is like the shadow of the deep sea, mysterious and intimidating.

The blue surface of the body seems to be reflected by the waves of the ocean, emitting a faint cold luster.

The head is the most intimidating part of the Cruiser Shark. Its wide-open mouth is filled with extremely sharp teeth. These teeth are like gleaming daggers, each one so sharp that it makes people shudder. It seems that just a slight bite can tear the prey into pieces.

Lu Xiaochuan waved his hands and said excitedly, "Into the Battle Phase, [Legendary Fisherman] (ATK 2050/DEF 1800) attacks the face-down Defense Position monster on your field."
