“It’s not just that. As long as my graveyard isn’t empty and I still have monster cards in my hand, the fusion will continue endlessly.”
Yu Xuan used the same trick again, banishing Gem-Knight Seraphinite from his graveyard.
He added the Gem-Knight Fusion to his hand.
“Let’s end this battle with this fusion. I’ll fuse Gem-Knight Lapis Lazuli in my hand with Gem-Knight Topaz on the field. Come forth, Gem-Knight Alexandrite!”
“Gem-Knight Topaz, like Seraphinite, has a graveyard effect that triggers when it leaves the field. I can choose one of your cards on the field to return to your hand. You know what you want to return, right?”
“You…!”
Facing Yu Xuan’s series of plays, Ryoki felt his defenses crumble before he even knew it.
He checked his Duel Disk to confirm the card’s effect. It was exactly what he said.
With no other choice, Ryoki could only send the Giant Rex from the field back to his hand.
At this point, Ryoki thought his seemingly unbreakable defenses had been shattered by Yu Xuan.
His field was now empty.
“Alexandrite, attack directly.”
Entering the battle phase, the Gem-Knight King swung his sword towards his opponent.
Ryoki had no way to defend and had to take the battle damage.

“Ah!”
Ryoki let out a cry, struck by lightning. His limbs collapsed onto the ground, his hand cards scattered.
Was it really necessary to be that dramatic?
Even though he had attacked, this battle was just a normal duel. Yu Xuan hadn't used the power of the card spirits.
Well, it’s just that the Duel Disk simulator of Kaiba Corporation is really amazing. The monsters are so lifelike, and it looks quite impressive.
It’s possible to be scared.
“According to the rules of the Duel City Tournament, the winner can take one rare card from the loser, as well as the chip board. Hand them over.”
Yu Xuan approached the collapsed Ryoki, ready to take what was his.
He noticed the shattered armor lying on the ground. He thought, "No way, no way. The card he had set was not that, was it?"
Then Ryoki's loss was really no injustice.
The effect of Shattered Armor has never been successfully used, a history of tragedy!
“My Evil Knight Dragon.”
Ryoki felt a pain in his heart, but still handed over his precious card.
Dinosaur Ryoki may have done a lot of wrong things in Yu-Gi-Oh, but the good thing is that he is willing to admit defeat.
“Uh, I don’t want this card.”
Seeing Ryoki hand over a high-star, mediocre card with a pained expression, Yu Xuan couldn't help but laugh.
What was he doing with this card in a Fusion Deck? One White Crystal Dragon was already enough to clog his hand.
With another one, he might actually die in a hand-to-hand accident during a duel.
“If you don’t want this, what do you want.”
Ryoki watched Yu Xuan warily, afraid he had something bigger planned.
But he still showed Yu Xuan his entire deck, abiding by the tournament rules.
Hmm? This guy's deck actually has fusion. Considering the risk of a hand clog, it would be good to take this card.
Giant Rex and Swift Galloping Dragon are also valuable, and I might need them in the future…
What to do? He wants all three.
“Since you want to keep Evil Knight Dragon, in exchange, I want Swift Galloping Dragon, Giant Rex, and Fusion.”
Yu Xuan gave his exchange condition.
“You really only want those three cards? Alright, just don’t ask for my Evil Knight Dragon anymore.”
Hearing that he could keep his most valuable card, Ryoki did not hesitate to hand over the three cards Yu Xuan chose.
Although those three cards were also excellent, it was heartbreaking to hand them over to someone else.
But these three cards were less valuable than Evil Knight Dragon. In order to keep his ace card, he could only sacrifice them.
“Yu Xuan, I didn't expect you to be so strong.”
After Yu Xuan received Ryoki’s cards and the chip board, Jounouchi came over to greet him.
Yu Xuan’s fighting style was completely new to him. The rules of the Duel City Tournament were supposed to restrict Fusion Summons.
But he could skillfully use Fusion and deploy it quickly.
Powerful monsters appeared one after another. He had never seen this kind of duel before.
Yu Xuan slightly smiled and accepted Jounouchi’s praise.
“Where did you get your Duel Disk?”
Yu Xuan noticed the Duel Disk in Jounouchi’s hand. It was inevitable that he would get a Duel Disk.
But he was also curious about what happened to Jounouchi after the Rare Card Hunter was hunted down.
“Well, a generous game store owner gave it to me. Both me and Yugi got one for free.”
Jounouchi was happy every time he thought about getting the new Duel Disk for free.
If he had to buy it, he didn’t know how long he would have to work to save up enough money.
Yu Xuan understood this heartfelt joy of Jounouchi. Is free the source of human happiness?
“Have you dueled anyone since you got this Duel Disk?”
Yu Xuan asked.
“No. I got this Duel Disk yesterday and it was already late. Plus, I had other things to do, so I didn’t duel. But I’m going to make up for it today, double time.”
Jounouchi clenched his fist, with a blazing fire in his eyes.
Yugi smiled innocently, facing Jounouchi, whose card addiction had flared up again.
Hearing that Jounouchi didn't duel last night, Yu Xuan understood that he went to see his sister, Shizuka, last night.
It seems that things have changed because of me. It's a good thing. I remember from the story that last night was a crucial night for Shizuka's eye surgery. It’s good that everything went well.
“You have to work hard then. Collecting six chip boards within 48 hours is not easy. I still need to keep dueling, so I’ll talk to you later.”
Yu Xuan turned to Insect Cerulean, taking out his own two chip boards.
“You said that you need two chip boards to duel me. Now I have them. You wouldn’t refuse, would you? National Champion of Japan, Insect Cerulean.”
Insect Cerulean frowned. His provocation made him very unhappy.
Hearing that Yu Xuan was going to duel again, Ryoki, who was listless after losing the duel, suddenly lit up. He pinned his hopes on his companion.
“Cerulean, teach him a lesson for me. Help me win back the card and the chip board I lost.”
At this point, Insect Cerulean naturally had no reason to refuse and could only accept the challenge.
“Alright, since you don’t know how to give up, a crushing defeat at my hands is your own fault. Let’s duel.”
Insect Cerulean got into a dueling position.
Now, he was a little relieved that he let Ryoki go first. Ryoki, no matter how bad he was, had tested the opponent's deck.
This was his advantage. With this knowledge, he could formulate a flexible tactic and target Yu Xuan.
“Duel!”
