“I’ll take the first turn.”
Yuga sneered, taking the first turn without hesitation.
“Heeheehee, what luck! I got all my cute little bugs right away. I’ll summon my Larva Baby defensively, and then use the Evolution Cocoon as an Equip card and equip it.”
A caterpillar the size of a man’s leg appeared on the field, quickly spinning a cocoon around itself, covering its entire body in an instant.
Larva Baby: Defense 2000.
“My trump card is ready. Cherish the few turns you have left.”
Yuga grinned maliciously and placed another card face-down on his back row.
“My turn, draw.”
Yu Xuan’s six cards were: Jewel Knight: White Crystal, Bright Fusion, Jewel Knight: Xiao Li, Jewel Knight: Obsidian, Crystal Rose, and Angel’s Grace.
This starting hand was pretty good. Yu Xuan breathed a sigh of relief. At least he didn’t get stuck like last time, and he could play normally.
He looked at the Larva Baby on the opponent’s field and already had a plan in mind.
Yuga, as the top villain in Yu-Gi-Oh, is undoubtedly unlikeable, but also memorable.
The trump card he mentioned was the Great Ultimate Ultimate Moth, with an attack power of 3500.
This card had no effect, but its high attack power wasn’t bad for the original series.
The problem was that it takes six turns for the Great Ultimate Ultimate Moth to evolve from a Larva Baby, which is quite useless.
Yu Xuan didn’t plan to drag this out, he wanted to get an OTK (ONETURNKILL) this turn.
“I activate Angel’s Grace.”
There’s no hesitation for such a mindless draw card, use it directly.
Yu Xuan drew Big Wave, Swamp King, and Jewel Armadillo.
Then Yu Xuan sent Jewel Knight: White Crystal and Xiao Li to the graveyard, then brought White Crystal Captain back to his hand.
With a card that has graveyard effects, using Angel’s Grace is so profitable.
“I don’t know what you have face-down, but get ready to be destroyed.”
Yu Xuan played Big Wave, destroying the magic and trap card effects of both sides. It’s simple, crude, and direct.
“What a terrible storm, oh, my face-down card is about to be destroyed!”
Seeing the storm approaching, Insect Yuga looked panicked, as if he was terrified.
“Hehe, just kidding! You can’t possibly think I wouldn’t have a counter to your battle methods. I was going to wait a few more turns before revealing my noble trump card, but since you can’t wait, I’ll indulge you! Come forth, my trump card!”
Insect Yuga laughed maliciously and revealed his face-down card.
His face-down card was Super Evolution Cocoon, which can be activated to release one Insect-Type monster on your field with an Equip card equipped, and Special Summon an Insect-Type monster from your Deck regardless of its Summoning conditions.
The light pink cocoon glowed with a golden hue under the effect of the Speed Spell, just like in the card art.
Soon, the golden cocoon shattered, and a giant moth with flapping wings appeared on the field.
Great Ultimate Ultimate Moth: Attack 3500, Defense 3000.
“How about that? Even your Jewel Knight King can’t easily defeat my Great Ultimate Ultimate Moth!”
Insect Yuga was confident as he pulled out his trump card during the opponent’s turn.
“Since you’re so confident in your trump card, you’d better watch closely, because the real show is about to begin!”
Yu Xuan looked at the big moth on the opponent’s field, not minding in the least. It’s just an empty shell, it has high attack but no defense.
The Super Evolution Cocoon that the opponent used reminded him that this card was actually a strengthening card that Konami released because they felt Yuga’s deck was too weak and unpopular.
Why would Yuga have this?
But Yu Xuan didn’t dwell on it. He had all the pieces in place, and it was time for his turn.
“I activate Bright Fusion. I send Jewel Knight: Qing Yu and Xiao Li from my Deck to the graveyard. Come forth, Lan Yu!”
Yu Xuan put Jewel Knight: Lan Yu on the field, and according to Xiao Li’s effect, he returned Qing Yu to his hand.
“This card is…”
Seeing Lan Yu on the field, Yuga’s face turned pale.
“Seems like you still remember the effect of Lan Yu. Next, I send Swamp King from my hand to the graveyard, and add Fusion from my Deck to my hand.”
To prevent the kind of hand stall that happened last time, Yu Xuan added Fusion to his hand from the cards he got from Longqi.
After all, three Swamp Kings can be used as Fusion materials.
“I send Jewel Knight: Lan Yu on the field, Qing Yu and Obsidian in my hand to the graveyard. Come forth, Liang Zhuan!”
The dashing Jewel Knight Lady: Liang Zhuan made her entrance, and at the same time, a black and blue light exploded in Yu Xuan’s graveyard.
It was the effect of Lan Yu and Obsidian being sent to the graveyard.
“According to Obsidian’s effect, when this card is sent from my hand to the graveyard, I can choose one Normal monster with a level of 4 or less in my graveyard to Special Summon. Rise again, Qing Yu! And Lan Yu activates at this time!”
The Great Ultimate Ultimate Moth was enveloped in a blue gem light, and turned back into a card in Yuga’s hand.
“No, my trump card!”
Yuga went crazy. His trump card can only be summoned through the evolution of the Larva, not through higher-level summoning.
He has no Larva or Evolution Cocoon in his hand, and now that it has been bounced back to his hand, he has no other means to Special Summon.
The situation on the field turned upside down in an instant.
“This scene seems familiar.”
Dinosaur Longqi, watching the match, remembered how his own trump card was negated like this, and couldn’t help but sweat for Yuga.
“Go ahead and cry, or you can wait until later. I activate Liang Zhuan’s effect. I release Qing Yu on my field and Special Summon one Extra Fusion Monster.”
Liang Zhuan breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Yu Xuan’s words, and without hesitation, she covered Qing Yu with her cloak and performed a disappearing act.
As if she was relieved that her master didn’t release her this time.
The effect of Liang Zhuan didn’t necessarily require her to be released. Yu Xuan had insufficient resources before, but now with sufficient resources, he naturally kept this powerful monster on the field.
On the field, Hui Zhuan made his appearance. This was the first time Liang Zhuan and Jewel Knight King appeared on the stage at the same time.
Facing the pressure from Jewel Knight King, Yuga felt overwhelmed, but he still pretended to be calm and threw a tough line.
“So what if you summoned Jewel Knight King? He doesn’t have enough attack to defeat me. Wait for my turn, and you’ll get a taste of the humiliation I just felt!”
Yuga wasn’t wrong this time. Yu Xuan had piled up his graveyard, but he didn’t have eleven cards yet. Hui Zhuan’s attack power wasn’t 4000 yet.
Liang Zhuan could not attack this turn due to the rules.
To this, Yu Xuan simply responded with the look of someone looking at an idiot: “You’re right, but did you forget something? I haven’t done my Normal Summon this turn.”
