After circling around, it was Light Mask's turn again.
"My turn."
After drawing a card, Light Mask stared at Yu Xuan with a look of hatred.
The opponent's powerful "Big Storm" had disrupted his useful backrow and his pre-prepared plans.
The only thing worth celebrating was that the opponent probably only had one of this powerful field-clearing magic card, so he didn't have to worry about it in his next turn.
"I activate 'Curse Soul Mask', equip it to 'Bloody Beast Warrior'."
Light Mask activated the magic card, and Kaiba's 'Bloody Beast Warrior' instantly donned a hideous, painful mask.
"Equip my card?"
Kaiba looked at the Equip Magic Card with a puzzled expression.
"That's right, this is a good thing. Monsters equipped with this mask cannot attack. In addition, during your Standby Phase, inflict 500 damage to the controller of the equipped monster."
The negative Equip Card successfully targeted its target, Light Mask smirked sinisterly.
"It's just a little trick, watch me resolve it right away."
Kaiba snorted in disdain, not taking it seriously.
"If you can, give it a try, hehehe. I'll set two cards and end my turn."
Light Mask set two cards, not summoning any monsters, and ended his turn like that.
"Draw."
Just before Kaiba drew from his deck, 'Curse Soul Mask' emitted purple-black mist, spreading towards the controller of 'Bloody Beast Warrior'.

Noticing his life points being reduced, Kaiba didn't even frown, directly using the monster on the field with the negative Equip Card as a tribute to prepare for an Upper Summon.
"I will use 'Bloody Beast Warrior' on the field as a tribute…"
"Wait, at this moment, I activate trap card 'Sacrifice Seal Mask'! You want to sacrifice your own monster, right? You think I wouldn't see something so obvious?"
Light Mask interrupted Kaiba's actions, flipping over the trap card he set last turn.
A mask with the character "Seal" written on its forehead appeared, directly interrupting the tribute process.
Yu Xuan watched this with his jaw dropped. Wait, you guys don't care about timing?
Kaiba was already preparing for an Upper Summon, how can you still interrupt it?
He also knew the trap card 'Sacrifice Seal Mask'. It's effect is that as long as this card is on the field, neither player can tribute their cards.
Even in the real card environment, it's useful and would be used as a counter card against decks focused on Upper Summons.
But looking closely at the card on the field, Yu Xuan realized that the opponent wasn't bluffing, this card, compared to the real 'Sacrifice Seal Mask', had an extra line.
—When the opponent player declares to use a monster as a tribute, activate this card. That monster's use as a tribute is negated!
Yu Xuan could only give up reminding Kaiba about the opponent's bluff.
Kaiba clenched his fists. Besides this Upper Summon, he was also planning to gather enough tributes to summon 'Giant God Warrior'.
But 'Sacrifice Seal Mask' in the Spell & Trap Zone thwarted his plans.
"It's only sealed Upper Summon, this can't stop me! Come out 'Dragon Master- Dragon Ruler'! I activate his effect, discard one card from my hand and add 'Dragon Horn Flute' from my deck to my hand."
The Dragon Ruler, clad in a black cloak, wielding a three-headed guitar, and covered in dragon bones, took to the stage. He blew the 'Dragon Horn Flute' in his hand, performing the combo that was so familiar it couldn't be more familiar.
"'Dragon Horn Flute' allows me to special summon up to two Dragon-type monsters from my hand. I will summon my strongest servant, descend 'Blue-Eyes White Dragon'!"
A mighty roar echoed through the sky, the dragon's power swept over the earth, a whirlwind arose on the Duel field, dust flew up, as if everything in the world was giving way for the dragon king's arrival.
Shadows flickered, the White Dragon descended, its wings stirring up a storm. It roared towards the sky, under its dragon power, plants swayed, clouds dissipated, all things trembled.
The appearance of 'Blue-Eyes White Dragon' was extremely eye-catching, drawing everyone's attention.
Yu Xuan looked at the White Dragon's figure, his eyes narrowed.
This smooth body, this graceful curve.
Ah, the president's wife is so beautiful!
However, Yu Xuan had no inappropriate thoughts. 'Blue-Eyes White Dragon' was incredibly imposing, comparable to a god. This was the power emanating from the monster's spirit, not simply based on the stats on the card.
Like Feather's Ace Monster, 'Ultimate Perfect Great Moth', whose attack power was higher than White Dragon's, in Yu Xuan's eyes, it was just a big fluttering moth, completely different from White Dragon.
"Hahaha, 'Blue-Eyes White Dragon' attack! 'Destructive Blast Gale!' "
The president gave his classic three-part laughter, pointing at Light Mask who had no monsters on the field.
'Blue-Eyes White Dragon' opened its mouth, a sharp white light surged within it, its powerful energy was about to roar out.
"'Blue-Eyes White Dragon' is indeed terrifying, but my deck can even seal gods, let alone White Dragon. I activate 'Curse Soul Mask'."
Light Mask once again used a magic card as a trap card, placing it on White Dragon, directly sealing its attack.
"To dare put such a hideous mask on my servant is unforgivable, 'Dragon Master' direct attack!"
Originally, 'Blue-Eyes White Dragon' plus 'Dragon Master- Dragon Ruler' would have dealt 4200 damage, enough to directly kill Light Mask.
But under the effect of 'Curse Soul Mask', only 'Dragon Master' could act. He carried his master's anger and punched Light Mask in the stomach.
【Light Mask lp4000→2800】
"Set two cards and end my turn."
"Heehee, not painful at all. Next is my teammate's turn. Let you witness our true power."
Amidst Light Mask's sarcastic words, it was Dark Mask's turn.
"My turn, I activate magic card 'Mask Monster's Ritual', releasing 'Shining Abyss' on the field and 'Mask Magician' in my hand, come out 'Mask Monster Ghost Face Monk'!"
Dark Mask clearly knew that his teammate's deck had 'Sacrifice Seal Mask', so he didn't Upper Summon, instead choosing to use a Ritual Monster.
Ritual Summoning is a special summon using monsters from your hand and field as tribute, bypassing the restriction of not being able to Upper Summon.
Dark flames burned on the field, amidst the howls of the two monsters, a strange-looking monster wearing several masks appeared.
Mask Monster Ghost Face Monk, Level 8, ATK: 3200 DEF: 1800
"What? A monster with attack power exceeding 'Blue-Eyes White Dragon'."
Kaiba saw the monster appearing, and couldn't help but worry about his 'Blue-Eyes White Dragon'.
"Hehehe, fear our mask power! But this time we'll spare you, 'Ghost Face Monk' attack!"
Dark Mask and Light Mask exchanged glances, deciding to take out Yu Xuan first.
They knew from the information they had that Yu Xuan's deck was fusion-based, 'Sacrifice Seal Mask' wouldn't stop it.
Besides, he used 'Big Storm' to blow up all their cards, which was really infuriating!
"Good. Submit to the supreme power of 'Hannno Knight' and fall into the abyss of despair!"
As the opponent launched his attack, Yu Xuan moved in a peculiar stance, activating the trap card he had already laid in wait, 'Sacred Protective Barrier - Reflection Mirror Force'!
