Yu-Gi-Oh!: Ultimate Duelist

As the sun sets, the soft and warm sunlight is like a golden veil, slowly falling on the school's spacious playground.

At this moment, the playground was crowded with people. However, what was surprising was that with so many people gathered here, there was not much noise.

Even if a few students were chatting in low voices, they subconsciously lowered their volume to the lowest level, as if they were afraid of breaking the quiet yet tense atmosphere.

Everyone's eyes, without exception, were fixed on the two people standing in the middle of the playground.

They are like the focus in the center of the stage, attracting every pair of eyes and every attention.

The people around were either standing or ready, some leaning forward slightly, and some with their hands folded on their chests. Everyone's expression seemed very focused and solemn, as if they were waiting for a thrilling showdown, or a moment of great significance.

In this silence, there was only the occasional sound of the breeze blowing the corners of clothes and the chirping of birds in the distance, as if the whole world was holding its breath for the two people in the middle of the playground.

Tan Cheng's eyes were determined as he spoke in a resounding voice, "I summon [Cannibal Doll] (ATK 1200/DEF 900) in Attack Position, then ambush two cards to end this turn."

As soon as Tan Cheng finished speaking, a large, adorable plush doll suddenly appeared on the field. On the chest of this plush doll was a very eye-catching large zipper, giving the impression that someone had deliberately put on the plush doll's coat.

At the same time, two covered cards slowly emerged from behind the plush doll. Surprisingly, these two cards weren't as small and exquisite as the one in Tan Cheng's hand; instead, they were magnified several times, making them particularly eye-catching.

"It's my turn, draw a card. I summon [Winged Dragon Guarding the City] in attack position (Attack 1400/Defense 1200)." Tang Shengzhi's voice sounded immediately afterwards.

As he finished speaking, a blue pterosaur suddenly appeared on the field. This pterosaur had long claws on its back, an enormous head and mouth, and even wider and larger wings.

Lin Hao watched on, stunned and deeply shocked. After all, all he had seen before were images from cartoons and anime, but now he could see such a real monster standing before him, as if it were alive. The strong visual impact was truly indescribable.

Because of this, Lin Hao's desire to have his own duel disk has become stronger and stronger, and he is also full of endless yearning for his future duel career.

Tang Shengzhi's expression was solemn as he spoke loudly, "I'm going to use [Winged Dragon Guarding the City] to attack your [Man-eating Doll]. My [Winged Dragon Guarding the City] has an attack power of 1400, while your Man-eating Doll only has 1200. So, destroy it, [Man-eating Doll]."

The pterosaur guarding the city suddenly spread its massive wings and flew towards the man-eating doll. As it neared the doll, it suddenly opened its abyssal-like mouth, seemingly ready to swallow the doll whole.

At this critical moment, Tan Cheng calmly said, "Display the Face-Up Trap Card - [Shield Spear]. Before the end of the turn, it can increase the ATK and DEF of a monster on our side of the field by 400 points. So my [Man-Eating Doll]'s ATK is 1600. So it should destroy your Wyvern defending the city."

Tang Shengzhi was so excited that he shouted, "Haha, I've been waiting for this move of yours. I've specially prepared a card this time. I suffered a loss here last time. How could I fall twice in the same place?"

"Activate the Quick-Play Spell Card in your hand - [Angel's Dice]. Its effect is: Roll a dice. Add the rolled value multiplied by 100 to the ATK and DEF of all monsters on your field until the end of the turn."

As the magic card in Tang Shengzhi's hand was activated, a rag doll wearing a pink top hat with a pair of snow-white feather wings on the hat appeared out of thin air on the field.

The rag doll flew out of the card with a dice in both hands that was much larger than its body, and then threw the dice in its hand with all its might.

As the dice rolled rapidly on the ground, Tang Shengzhi couldn't help but feel nervous.

After all, at this moment, the attack power of his monster and Tan Cheng's monster differed by only two hundred. If the point was less than two, his monster would still be defeated by Tan Cheng's monster; if the point was three, his monster would die together with Tan Cheng's monster; only if the point was more than three, the attack power of his monster could surpass the attack power of Tan Cheng's monster.

Tan Cheng stood aside with a calm expression, as if no matter what the number of points was, it had nothing to do with him.

Soon, as the dice stopped rolling, the number on it was clearly revealed.

Tang Shengzhi was overjoyed and said excitedly, "Great, it's five points. The attack power of my [Winged Dragon Guarding the City] has increased to 1900, surpassing the 1600 of your [Man-eating Doll]."

With a loud bang, the [Cannibal Doll] was instantly destroyed, and Tan Cheng's LP dropped to 3700.

Tang Shengzhi then ambushed a card and ended his turn.

"My turn, draw a card." Tan Cheng added the card he drew from the deck to his hand, then said, "I activate the Spell Card - [Reinforcement], which allows me to select a Warrior-Type monster of 4 or lower from the deck and add it to my hand. I chose the 1700-star Warrior-Type card - [Great Axe Raider] (ATK 1150/DEF ). Since adding a card to my hand requires reshuffling the deck, I need to take it out and shuffle it."

After Tan Cheng finished speaking, he skillfully took out his deck from the duel disk, shuffled it, and then put it back into the duel disk.

"Summon [Axe Raider] in Attack Position. Also activate the Spell Card - [Legendary Sword] to increase the ATK of a Warrior-Type monster on the field by 300 points. I chose to equip [Axe Raider], so [Axe Raider] now has 2000 ATK."

"Wow!" As soon as Tan Cheng finished speaking, the students in the room erupted in excitement. You know, in this era when combat monsters generally have relatively weak attack power, a monster with an attack power exceeding 2000 can already be considered extremely powerful.

"The attack power is actually over 2,000. Tan Cheng is still as powerful as ever."

"Although I've seen other duelists summon over two thousand monsters online, this is the first time I've seen it in real life."

"It's just the beginning, and such a powerful monster has appeared. It seems that Tang Shengzhi has no hope."

Various discussions arose one after another, and even Tang Shengzhi's face became extremely ugly, with a furrowed brow and a solemn expression.
