Chapter 110: Sword Fighting
The player sent by the opposing camp was a short-haired girl of about seventeen or eighteen years old.

The summer camp has students from middle school to college students.

Judging from her age alone, she should be a first-tier player for the other team.

The girl said something to the host on the stage and then made a gesture of invitation.

The host translated, "This female student said that since you have come from afar, we should fulfill our duties as hosts and let classmate Ye Huan go first."

Ye Huan shook his head and refused, saying: "Since it is an exchange, both parties must be equal."

Seeing that Ye Huan was not fooled, the short-haired girl stuck out her tongue and muttered, "What a pity."

After unfortunately getting the right to choose sides, she took the initiative to choose the back hand.

"I just like to do these little tricks."

Seeing this scene, the students present were immediately outraged.

"Fortunately, Ye Huan is smart, otherwise he would really think that his opponent is kind and would have to thank him after falling into his trap."

Xia Qing looked at the girl on the stage and guessed with his chin in his hand: "Bad beast? Witch control? Hellfire machine?"

Judging from the thickness of the deck, it should not be a level 60 Hellfire Machine.

The most likely ones are Kaguya's Beast and Witch, both of which happen to be the characteristic card decks of the Sakura Country.

It is indeed troublesome for Xiangjian to face these two card decks, and there is absolutely no way to deal with them within his own system.

8+10 equals Lava Golem.

"Otherwise it will be in vain and no monsters will appear." Xia Qing muttered.

His words were heard by the students around him.

"Siang Jian has no backfield resistance, how can he pass through?"

"Even if the opponent lets you go first, it doesn't mean you have no ability to go first."

Since he didn't know the opponent's deck clearly, Xia Qing couldn't refute it. It was up to Ye Huan to make the choice.

On the stage, Ye Huan looked at the cards in his hand, thought for half a minute and then said, "I'll end my turn like this."

"Hey, did the Chinese player get stuck?"

In the audience, people who were not aware of the situation expressed surprise.

Only the students around Xia Qing exclaimed: "They actually chose to give up the round."

Then, he couldn't help but look at him in surprise.

It seems that Ye Huan did his homework before participating in the event.

The opponent's short-haired girl's expression froze.

Just as Xia Qing guessed, what she used was the Witch Control deck.

This deck focuses on a "bumping" strategy. The monsters on this deck all have 0 attack and can transfer the damage they receive to the opponent.

But if the opponent doesn't summon monsters, it will be very uncomfortable.

Helplessly, she could only use the "Inherited Great Shaman" to specially summon the "Shaman of the Great Sun Girl", and then general summon the "Shaman of the Pearl·Fox Li", and equip her with the "Shaman's Dance·Confusing Bird".

Both monsters have 0 attack, so the battle is meaningless.

After the girl covered 2 traps, her turn ended.

However, even in such a situation, Xiang Jian still found it difficult to handle.

"Witch" monsters with equipment cards cannot be destroyed by battle or effects; "Fox Li" can provide all Witch cards with resistance to target acquisition.

It is resistant to attacks and will not be destroyed in battle, which is equivalent to every Witch-controlling monster having a double dome of IP.

Ye Huan's face was solemn. Xiang Jian's breakthrough ability was almost entirely dependent on the system.

He took a deep breath, praying that he could draw the only Lightning Storm in the deck and deal with the opponent's backfield.

"My turn, draw a card."

There was a strange touch on the back of the card, and Ye Huan was stunned when he saw the drawn card.

It turned out that Xia Qing gave him the "competition for victory" before the game.

A rare card that can perfectly solve the current dilemma. Because it is a face-down exclusion, it is even more suitable for the current situation than Lightning Storm.

He turned his head and glanced at Xia Qing's position in the audience, as if he felt a breath of fate.

"Advance to the battle stage, and then end the battle stage."

"Masaka?" Upon hearing the opponent's declaration of phase change, the short-haired girl's pupils contracted violently as if she had foreseen something terrible.

When the girl saw Ye Huan put a trap card on the field, she felt a deep despair in her heart.

"Even if you have no cards on the field, you can activate 'Fighting Victory' from your hand.

"At the end of the Battle Phase, if your opponent has more cards on the field than you do, you need to bring the number of cards to the same as yours, except for the extra cards facing down."

Ye Huan raised his lips and said, "I only have one card on the field right now, 'Win or Lose', so you can only keep one card."

The short-haired girl's face turned pale as she reluctantly threw away her cards one by one.

After a painful decision, she only had one "Big Sun Girl" left on the field, but a large number of resources were excluded, and she could no longer stop Ye Huan's Xiangjian.

After two rounds, the short-haired girl's health was reduced to zero by Chengying.

After stepping down, Ye Huan returned the card to Xia Qing.

"Thanks. If I hadn't drawn your card, I really don't know how I would have won."

But he was confused again: "How do you know I will use this card?"

"Maybe it's some kind of sixth sense." Xia Qing answered casually.

As for the reason, it was purely because of the Peruvian Sword Master in his previous life, who performed two consecutive "defeating" operations in the world finals, which made him astonished.

In 2023, with a set of Xiangjian, he broke through the blockade of new-era decks such as Brand, Silver City, and Machine Slash, and entered the world championship finals.

Even if we only won the runner-up in the end, it is still a feat.

So much so that Xia Qing always thought that a sword fight without a victory or defeat seemed to be missing something.

Ye Huan nodded thoughtfully and said, "This card is indeed very convenient to use. I will find a way to get one when I return."

Although the first day of exchanges ended with the Chinese team's victory.

But in the following days, the Sakura Country started to get serious and sent out strong players one after another to regain the upper hand.

The duel became more and more intense, resulting in no one paying attention to the daytime activities, and it became a time for everyone to discuss tactics.

The activity for the day was camping and mountain climbing. During the break, the students gathered together to discuss.

"The score is a bit dangerous. We can't send anyone up at random."

A student suggested: "Why don't we let Brother Twelve play first and even the score first."

"No, no, if we send out the Twelve Beasts now, the other party will definitely ask for a change in the rules of the game later."

"Don't we have anyone more powerful here?"

"Ye Huan, Bai Wenjun and the others have already appeared. The other side will definitely find a way to target them."

Yun Xi on the side wanted to volunteer, but considering the style of her deck, it seemed not suitable for this occasion.

Chen Qingyuan and other students fell silent. The selection of people by the Chinese side this time was indeed a bit random.

Xia Qing sighed, stood up, and said, "I'll go today. In addition to the Twelve Beasts, I have other decks."

"Is this true? How strong is the deck?"

"Are you sure you can win?"

Facing everyone's doubts, Chen Qingyuan immediately responded for him: "Xia Qing is a player of the magician family card deck. The previous championship was not won by relying on the twelve beasts."

"I think it's okay." Ye Huan raised his hand in support.

Thanks to the victory on the first day, he had a very high prestige. Seeing that the big boss Ye Huan agreed, others no longer questioned it.

The sun gradually set, and because they would be camping in the wild today, the duel was moved forward to the evening.

After dinner, the students came to a flat hillside in tacit understanding.

The players on both sides walked into the duel area.

"Damn it, dad."

"Brother Twelve, come on."

The camera swept across the students on both sides. When it landed on Xia Qing's face, the photographer showed a surprised expression, "Have we sent out our trump card so soon?"

In fact, he had long discovered that the preparations of the two sides were not on the same level.

On the Chinese side, they are also thinking about showcasing regional specialty decks; on the Sakura Country side, they are really preparing for the tournament level.
