Chapter 313 First Battle
"The title of Duel King."

This surprised You Xuan a little.

Since Yugi Muto retired, this title has been vacant. After the first Duel City Tournament, no other tournaments have used this title as a gimmick.

In fact, everyone knows that now that Pharaoh is gone and the game has retired, the title of Duel King is almost a piece of cake for Kaiba Seto if he wants it. There is almost no one in the world who can be his opponent anymore.

But he hasn't done so for many years.

Maybe it’s because Kaiba feels that if he doesn’t defeat “that person”, how can he be worthy of being called the king even if he wins all the duelists in the world?

So You Xuan was very surprised. Not only did Kaiba decide to return to the competition this time, he also decided to reopen the title of Duel King.

What does this mean? Has the president finally accepted the fact that Atum has left this world and decided to step out of the shadow of the Pharaoh?

After the opening speech, Keipi stretched.

"Phew~ I didn't sleep well last night because I was preparing for the competition. I'm so sleepy."

Keipi yawned and turned to Yugen.

"Okay, now the competition has officially begun, and it's almost time for you to go to the competition. Your opponents are all duelists in the entire Tongshiye area, so you have to hurry up.

There are limited places, and if you can’t get one of the eight places first, you will be eliminated.”

You Xuan nodded to show that he understood.

Indeed, this is also a replica of the same rules as the first generation of DM competitions. In this way, even high-level duelists who are confident in their strength have to have a sense of urgency. If they are a little slow, they may be overtaken by others.

"But this competition is not that simple." Keiping said, "You have to be careful. Some of our men have investigated, and the people from Shindoma may try to sneak in.

I think they probably have something they must win in this game.”

You Xuan understood: "'Sealing Vessel', is it?"

"Yeah, so you have to be careful. The appearance of this thing may be the clarion call for a decisive battle for them. But speaking of it, a fox has already revealed its tail."

Guiping stretched out his hand and made a light swipe, and a monitoring interface appeared in front of him.

The picture shows a sneaky man in a black robe, half of his body hidden in the shadows, and he seems to be looking at something.

"This guy has been hanging around for a long time, just outside this building. We have cross-checked it with the existing intelligence and confirmed that he should be a dark duelist under New Doma.

I think he is probably looking for you."

Keiping chuckled.

"This guy really underestimates the means of our Kaiba Group. Does he really think that our surveillance network has not discovered him?"

You Xuan looked at the man in the picture and smiled gently.

interesting.

"Thanks, Guiping." He stood up. "Then it seems that my first prey... No, my opponent has been identified."

Ye Ying rested in the shadows, staring at the building of Haiba Group.

Then he frowned slightly.

Strange, why hasn’t anyone come out yet?

The competition has already started. Shouldn't we hurry up and play now?
What about people?

Could it be that he came out from another exit?
Thinking of this, he thought about changing places to have a look.
So Ye Ying turned around and stepped back, ready to leave the alley. But after taking only a few steps, he froze.

dead end.

But this should be impossible. He was sure that he should be heading towards the exit. Ye Ying began to have a bad feeling. He turned around and felt that he seemed to be facing an ominous fog in front of him. He passed through the fog under the dim light and only took a few steps forward. The dark wall was in front of him again.

Still a dead end.

After all, he was more or less a dark duelist, so Ye Ying quickly realized that something was wrong. He frowned, turned around, and stood quietly for a moment.

Sure enough, a figure soon walked out through the dark fog.

"It looks like you're looking for me." You Xuan chuckled, "Here I come."

"You're really confident, kid."

Yeying narrowed his eyes. He looked around, taking in the ominous fog around him.

"The barrier of the Dark Game." He frowned and said, "Let me guess, only one of us can get out of here, right?"

"Heh, after all, he's an assassin from New Doma, so he understands things quickly." You Xuan smiled, "Yes, it's the barrier of the Dark Game. Anyway, you came to me with this idea, right? So I'll save you some trouble."

He simply raised the duel disk.

"Come?"

"Interesting. Indeed, this was my original purpose. But since you are so fearless, I will make a quick decision and get rid of you immediately before returning to report."

Ye Ying also unfolded the duel disk, but the one he used was a special one made by Doma, which was different from You Xuan's.

You Xuan smiled but didn't answer.

"Duel!" x2

[Night Shadow, LP 4000]

"Then I will attack first and draw a card." You Xuan said, "Cover a monster in face-down Defense Position, and then face down three cards. The turn is over."

It's a simple start, but it's also the norm in slow-paced competitive environments. In the early days, it was rare to use up all your cards to make a high-attack big brother when you attacked first. After all, there were almost no big brothers who could stand on the field. If you exchanged three or five cards for a big brother and someone else removed it with a removal card, you would almost go bankrupt on the spot, so few people did this except in animations.

"My turn, draw a card."

Ye Ying drew the card and looked at You Xuan uneasily for a while.

In fact, Yeying is no longer as confident as he appears to be.

He originally thought that he was just a student of the Duel Academy, how could he be difficult to deal with? But now that he saw the real person, he began to feel a little nervous.

He couldn't put it into words, but he felt that something was wrong with this boy.

Putting aside other things, it was obvious that I was the hunter and the other party should be the prey, but as soon as we met, I suddenly had the illusion that I had become the prey.

I really didn't expect that he would take the initiative to find me to play a dark game.

Moreover, when did this person get behind me, and when did he open this barrier?

Ye Ying soon realized that since the other party had already noticed him, he would not be able to stop him if he wanted to slip away silently.

But even so, You Xuan still appeared in front of him.

What do you mean?
Does that mean that he doesn't take me, a Doma elite, seriously at all?

"Oh, arrogant geniuses always have to hit a wall before they understand the vastness of the world."

A gleam of light flashed in Yeying's eyes.

"I'll let you realize this through a duel!"
