Chapter 1006 - 575: You Wenqi Gets Caught in the Crossfire (2)
However, the experiences in the Soul Card World are the secrets of the Life Card Masters, and Shen Sui certainly wouldn’t deliberately inquire about them.
Just looking at You Wenqi’s serious expression, it seems that this matter is not trivial.
As Shen Sui pondered, he glanced up at the stage.
As everyone knows, the world’s number one is Theis, the world’s number two is Dongye Youzai, and You Wenqi is steadily ranked third in the world.
These three have far surpassed everyone else in points, even though You Wenqi retired for half a year due to personal matters and didn’t participate in any competitions during that period, he only lost his second place to Dongye Youzai, but no one could shake his top-three position.
And now, the person dueling on stage is the world-ranked fourth Life Card Master.
By the way, the rankings are not directly related to the Life Card Master’s strength; they’re only based on competition results.
Of course, if one is weak, the competition results certainly won’t be good.
Nevertheless, there are many Life Card Masters with great strength who have no interest in appearing in competitions.
Additionally, many card decks have counter relationships, leading to situations where lower-ranked Life Card Masters defeat higher-ranked ones quite frequently.
And this very situation was happening before Shen Sui.
This time, unlike Shen Sui’s duel with Kase, where there was an obvious targeting of card decks, the opponent relied solely on their deck’s raw strength, consistently suppressing the world’s fourth-ranked Alyosha Allovsky.
No surprise if the opponent becomes Shen Sui’s next opponent in the following round.
Shen Sui, however, took some interest in the opponent’s deck.
The Fantasy series, huh...
Seeing the various mystical Fantasy Spirit Beasts appearing on stage, Shen Sui thought he was seeing Vivian’s kind.
After all, Vivian’s deck comprises Fantasy Beasts.
But soon, with the opponent’s summons of a Soul Card, Shen Sui’s guess was refuted.
The opponent’s Soul Card was undoubtedly a human.
And a white-collar woman wearing professional attire.
Those Fantasy Spirit Beasts seemed more like this white-collar woman’s control objects.
This style was certainly not of the Beast Taming World’s style, as Shen Sui had never seen a Life Card Master’s Soul Card from that world being a human.
However, Shen Sui had never heard of the name Qiu Ende.
Based on appearance, he seemed to be Chinese, possibly a new teammate of Theis.
In terms of fame, the opponent wasn’t even as well-known as Shen Sui, who at least had some renown on the global stage.
Shen Sui watched the duel intently, beginning to speculate on the opponent’s Soul Card World.
There are so many Soul Card Worlds, and similar worlds abound, even the most experienced Life Card Masters can only define a rough style based on card deck themes.
Shen Sui was not intent on finding the opponent’s weakness through their Soul Card World; this was more of a habit for him.
Most Soul Card Worlds have some relationship to Shen Sui, hence whenever encountering a new opponent or a new card deck, he instinctively speculates, wondering if the deck shares some connection with his own.
Under the boost of Extraordinary Power, Shen Sui’s memory was exceptionally excellent, and he quickly recalled a game with a style similar to Qiu Ende’s deck from his memories.
Monsters appearing in dreams.
Dream Seekers fighting within dreams.
Various lovely units fighting for their cause.
In terms of setting, these lovely units were all spawned from the Dream Seeker’s fantasies and dreams.
If I’m not mistaken, this is like a card-drawing mobile game borrowing inspiration?
Thinking of this, Shen Sui felt slightly speechless.
Damn, why do I feel I’m especially tied to these kinds of games.
Yet Shen Sui initially played this game simply because of the outstanding L2D visuals, where the vast bosom nearly bounced out of the screen and there wasn’t any fabric at places it shouldn’t be, constantly pushing the boundaries of censorship.
Just for this aspect alone, Shen Sui couldn’t resist tasting it.
Moreover, the aesthetic of the art style was very much to Shen Sui’s taste.
Thinking of this, the duel on stage gradually reached its end.
With Qiu Ende’s Event Card "Fantasy Invasion" activation, Alyosha’s defenses completely collapsed, and Qiu Ende emptied his Life Value.
"Huh?"
Shen Sui watched the scene unfold on stage, as numerous Dream Seekers flashed by to face the monsters, blinking his eyes.
One of the girls in a Lolita outfit looked rather familiar.
Felt like he’d seen her somewhere.
Not from past life memories, probably seen somewhere in this world.
While Shen Sui was reminiscing, You Wenqi beside him let out a light exclamation.
"What’s wrong?" Shen Sui asked.
You Wenqi’s expression was very tense: "Similar monsters also appeared in the Starry World."
"Similar monsters... in what sense?"
"Though judging based solely on text descriptions seems quite presumptuous," You Wenqi pointed to a motionless Boundary Breaker far away and said, "if I’m guessing correctly, it should be creatures of this type."
Has the Starry World been invaded by Broken Boundary Creatures?
But hasn’t Haral already located the traces of Antipus? Little Insect Lady hasn’t been to the Starry World either, so why would they attack the Starry World?
Not just Shen Sui, You Wenqi who experienced it was also completely baffled.
As he spoke, sweat was already seeping from his forehead, his hands continuously inputting commands, unable to spare a moment to converse further with Shen Sui.
You Wenqi’s combat strength in the Soul Card World is undoubtedly strong, evident from his ability to evenly match Alice purely by personal capability, even without summoning those Starry Gods.
Yet even with such formidable strength, from You Wenqi’s behavior, it seemed that this battle in the Starry World was anything but simple.
Just at that moment, El Lado appeared before everyone.
With the appearance of the final four, the first half of the competition was concluded, and he summoned a girl draped in a beautiful facade, carrying delicious wine and food, walking up to everyone’s presence.
All present remained unmoved.
Who knows what these meals actually are?
Seeing this, El Lado said nothing more, just as he was about to speak, Haral’s right eye above exploded in a furious roar.
"Kill you all! Kill you all!"
El Lado looked up in shock.
He couldn’t comprehend why his Main God was so irritable today.
He hurriedly left to pacify his Main God.
This old man probably has never been so busy.
You Wenqi was also startled awake by the ceiling eye’s roar, cautiously glancing at the eye above the dome.
Shen Sui noticed You Wenqi’s expression and sent a doubtful look.
"Don’t underestimate this eye," You Wenqi said to everyone present, "if it loses control, it will undoubtedly destroy our world. The best way is to drive it away through a duel."
You Wenqi didn’t even hope to kill the opponent through a duel; driving it away was already the limit.
Always observing You Wenqi’s actions, Theis quickly spoke: "Did you just encounter it in the Soul Card World?"
You Wenqi swallowed a mouthful of saliva and nodded: "Had a fight."
Theis was well aware of You Wenqi’s strength.
The strength of his nine Zodiac Gods definitely wasn’t inferior to his own Divine Followers.
Thinking of this, Theis quickly asked, "How was it?"
"Narrowly won," You Wenqi smiled bitterly.
And it was a narrow victory after exerting all effort.
The opponent inexplicably showed both hands, attempting to sweep the entire Starry World, still muttering, wanting this world to give back his left eye.
You Wenqi was speechless, like hell anyone knows where your left eye went.
Initially hoped to negotiate persuasion with the opponent to leave, but the opponent insisted people here had stolen his eye.
Of course, You Wenqi couldn’t admit that.
Then they fought, and You Wenqi nearly got reset, fortunately, his body awakened the Starry Gods, managing twenty-to-one to reluctantly drive off the opponent.
But till the end, You Wenqi still couldn’t figure out, damn it, who really took your left eye?
Haral similarly covets this world now, hence You Wenqi wasn’t concealing this encounter, giving everyone present a chance to analyze it.
Shen Sui’s mouth twitched slightly.
Haral probably mistook the sealing force of the Star Night Power for the power of the Starry World, considering the two truly do resemble each other.
