Chapter 282 The upgraded Lan Jun!

Battle Club, Arena

"Yu Cang, this way." Wen Ren Ge waved.

Yu Cang, who had just walked into the gate, immediately noticed this place and hurried over.

It was only around seven o'clock, and there were not many people in the arena. In the empty venue, there were only seven members of the Combat Club and one teacher, Qin Yueran.

At this time, they were gathered in a corner of the arena, standing or sitting in a circle.

"Teacher Qin and everyone, good morning." Yu Cang greeted.

"Good morning, brothers!" Qi'er waved his little hand.

"Ah... so cute." Yan He was immediately addicted to Qi'er's porcelain doll-like face.

The others looked up and saw Yu Cang walking towards them with a smile, and a complicated look appeared on their faces.

The last time Yu Cang came to participate in the combat club assessment, although his performance was amazing, it was still within their acceptable range.

But a few days after the assessment, they learned that Yu Cang was actually the winner of the Flame Emperor Medal... This made them feel as if they were just attending an ordinary high school and suddenly a big shot who had won all kinds of competitions suddenly appeared in their class... or maybe it was even more exaggerated than that.

Xing Su clicked his tongue.

Compared to others, he knew about Yu Cang's honor after the duel, so when everyone else knew about it, he actually developed a sense of superiority.

Haha, I knew this news a long time ago!

Although this sense of superiority seems a little wrong, it doesn't matter.

Lan Jun secretly looked at Yu Cang, his eyes full of curiosity.

This is the first time I’ve seen a living recipient of the Flame Emperor Medal… Are all recipients of the Flame Emperor Medal so unique?

Normally, the dragon is rarely seen. Whenever it appears, it always brings a little girl with it, and sometimes the little girl holds a baby dragon in her arms...

If it were someone else, they would just think that this person was being too pretentious. Why didn't he send the little girl to kindergarten? Wouldn't it be too stressful to always maintain this dragon? But since he was the recipient of the Flame Emperor Medal, there must be a deeper meaning behind it.

Apart from anything else, every time Yu Cang appeared, he would sleep in Qi'er's arms or on Yu Cang's shoulder at night, but Yu Cang's mental state was always good, and there was no sign of sudden death.

Although I don’t know why, this willpower is really too strong!

During the last dinner party, everyone behaved very naturally in front of Yu Cang, but now, they became inexplicably reserved.

Especially, I heard that the giant tree that suddenly appeared and disappeared at the legendary Jieying Summit a few days ago was the work of Cang...

The fact that they were already able to get involved in matters of this level made everyone feel that there was a tragically thick barrier between them.

"Ahem, um, welcome, Yu Cang." Lv Zihe stood up. "You're here early, hahahaha..."

Yu Cang: “…Ah?”

He was completely confused.

Is this... a mockery of him?

When he came in, everyone seemed to have been waiting here for a long time. Now they said he came early. Are they blaming him?

But why do you look so embarrassed?

...Yeah, this is my first time attending a battle club meeting, so it's a bit rude to be the last one here.

Immediately, Yu Cang's face showed a hint of apology: "Sorry, I'm late."

Lu Zihe glared.

No, you misunderstood, that's not what I meant!

She touched her smooth forehead and said, "No, no, no, the appointed time hasn't come yet. We came too early... It's none of your business."

"...Alright, alright." Wen Renge stood up with a smile and laughed. "Yu Cang, I heard you've been busy with the Jieying Summit recently... As for your deck, are you ready?"

"Of course." Yu Cang smiled.

"It's like this," Wen Renge explained. "You just joined the Battle Club. According to the rules, you have to go first in today's competition. You have to fight each of the seven of us in turn, and then the others. What I mean is, if you want, you can go to the audience and watch for a while, and then go on stage after Lan Jun has fought once."

In his opinion, Yu Cang had no instructor after all, and was responsible for his own deck. He was busy with the World Shadow Summit some time ago, so he definitely didn't have much time to upgrade the deck.

Yu Cang didn't know about the top four decks in the Battle Club yet, so they could be easily killed by Chu Jian.

Therefore, it’s not too late to let him take a look first and get familiar with everyone’s decks before the duel.

"Is that so?" Yu Cang's expression remained unchanged. "It's okay, just follow the rules."

Wen Ren Ge's expression changed slightly.

So confident?

Or is there something to rely on?

Wen Ren Ge was silent for a moment.

Although he had seen the duel between Yu Cang and Duan Feng, and the Dragon of the Last Dawn had left a deep impression on him, but—

He later figured it out. Once this card was used, Yu Cang would probably lose his combat capability for a considerable period of time. A round-the-clock battle like today's would actually be of no use.

The biggest threat today is still the Saint of Breach.

But Yu Cang is so confident...

While thinking, Wen Renge remained calm, just smiled and said, "Well, since you have no problem, let's get started."

Yu Cang nodded.

…

The other members of the Fighting Club have retreated to the audience seats, leaving the venue to Yu Cang.

In the first game, Yu Cang's opponent was Lan Jun.

This is also an old friend. His deck is Night Walk in the Garden, and I got my Burial Bluestone Flower Ancient Dragon from him.

"Yu Cang." Lan Jun took a deep breath, easing the tension in his heart, and said from a distance, "We meet again... This time, I'm already level five!"

"Congratulations."

"Speaking of which, I should thank you," Lan Jun said. "You know, Yu Cang, I'm very aware of my deck's weaknesses and limitations. After that duel, your 'Burial Bluestone Flower Ancient Dragon' was simply my dream card...

"Unfortunately, that was your card. My advisor later tried to reproduce that soul card, but failed. Until a few days ago—you published a paper."

"Oh?" Yu Cang raised his brows, "The Creation Clan?"

"Yes!" Lan Jun looked excited. "My mentor asked me to thank you on his behalf... My mentor had some doubts when he created the 'Night Wandering Gatekeeper Statue'. This soul card was clearly from the Creation Clan, yet it could move slowly and even fight. My mentor had always wanted to figure out the secret, but always failed.

"It was your paper that inspired my instructor and also created my brand new deck today!"

Yu Cang understood.

He remembers goalkeeping like this card.

This soul card moves extremely slowly, but its strength and defense are very high, and it is not susceptible to sleep, so it has become the main player in the Night Garden deck.

When other night-wandering soul cards fall asleep, they will place their bodies in the palm of the gatekeeper statue and be protected by it.

Now that I think about it, the gatekeeper statue is the creator clan.

Lan Jun's teacher must have accidentally created this soul card. Because the "Night Wandering" field is related to sleep, it activated the racial characteristics of the Creation Clan, giving them a dynamic gatekeeper statue. However, they never connected this ability to the racial characteristics of the Creation Clan.

Yu Cang wasn't surprised by this. Although the Creator Soul Card was unpopular, there were many card makers researching it. It made sense that its characteristics would be discovered at any time; he just happened to be at the forefront.

"So." Lan Jun's eyes locked onto Yu Cang. "Let me warn you, today, you can't use your previous tactics against me... because they're no longer effective!"

"Thank you for the reminder." Yu Cang nodded.

"Then let's get started!"

bite!

Silent round begins!

"Come out, my new power!" Lan Jun waved his hand, and two soul cards were taken out.

boom……

The ground was broken by a huge stone pillar, and two not-so-tall tower-shaped stone pillars rose from the ground. On the top of the towers, a little devil statue carved out of stone was crouching on it, with a frozen expression full of ferocity.

"I summon the night-walking gargoyle!"

The mental pressure and soul energy consumption of the Creator Clan are not high, so it is easy to summon two gargoyles with one tube of soul energy.

The gargoyles summoned in this way have almost no abilities and are just two stone pillars... Of course, this is when they are not moving!

Yu Cang glanced over and said nothing.

From the surface, these two stone statues do not seem to have any function, but since Lan Jun was the first to add them to the battlefield, there must be some reason for them.

Yu Cang touched the card box and activated a soul card.

"I summon: Half-Dragon Headhunter!"

Buzz!

The soul card was flipped open in front of him, and in an instant, a bloody aura surged out of the soul card. A half-dragon man with hideous scales all over his body, rags wrapped around his limbs, and wearing sloppy cloth armor suddenly jumped out of it. His lizard-like vertical pupils were filled with coldness as he slowly swept across the field.

And the most exaggerated thing is.

Behind the half-dragon headhunter, three chaos dragon scales were suspended in mid-air, with light and shadow shimmering on the dragon scales.

…

auditorium.

Wen Renge raised his brows slightly.

"...It's changed." He stroked his chin. "Yu Cang started with two gray-white half-dragons... but now it's become a half-dragon headhunter..."

The consumption of the gray-white half-dragon man is half a tube of soul energy. In fact, there are soul cards with stronger and more practical panels than the gray-white half-dragon man, but as far as the beginning is concerned, the half-dragon man is undoubtedly the most suitable.

Because the gray half-dragon can drop three dragon scales, two of them means six, which is the limit of what a tube of soul energy can do. Moreover, compared to a single unit, two half-dragons are more flexible and have more tactics to choose from.

And now, if Yu Cang only summoned one summoned beast at the beginning...even if his panel would be higher, it would still be a bit thin.

After all, when it comes to panel, it's impossible to beat the Plague Beast.

Unless, the power of this soul card... is worth doing so.

Wen Ren Ge narrowed his eyes slightly.

…

While Wen Ren Ge was thinking, Yu Cang and Lan Jun's soul energy had been fully restored.

bite!

The silent round ends!

Lan Jun immediately stretched out his hand, and a soul card appeared in his palm: "I summon: The Great Spirit Envoy of the Night!"

Buzz!

The huge soul card shadow shattered in the air. In the cold fragmented light, a figure with skin that was incredibly white floated to the ground. It looked masculine, with long and pointed ears, and long golden hair with distinct strands. After landing, it opened its eyes, as if opening a treasure box filled with gorgeous blue diamonds.

The Night-Wandering Great Elf, whether it is the rare version or the epic version, consumes the highest amount of soul energy.

When it sleeps, it can release the fairy sword dance dream spirit, and its combat power is rarely matched... but also rarely used.

Because, anyone who uses this soul card, as long as they know how to play and are not a bully, will not use it to fight.

Instead, use its second ability:

[Dream of Hometown]: Sacrifice yourself and open a "Dream Spirit" field card at no cost.

It is plain and simple, but the card effect is amazing. It is a fake card of the original family.

Once this ability is activated, the only thing that limits Lan Jun's use of the venue becomes mental pressure - because the sacrifice process is a higher-level summoning, epic venues can also be deployed.

At level four, Lan Jun still had to meet the conditions to activate "Night Walk in the Garden", but at level five, there was obviously a more convenient and quicker way to activate it.

"Sleep peacefully, my servant—the old country you long for day and night will come to you from your bright dreams!"

ah--!

The great elf slightly opened his arms and raised his head, and his long golden hair flowed from his shoulders like a waterfall. He gently closed his eyes, but a shining light bloomed between his eyebrows, like a lone star in the sky.

At the same time, the invisible force suddenly spread out with it as the center, and in just a blink of an eye, it had spread across the entire field!

"Come in response to your dream—the deep garden of trees and flowers!"

Buzz!

Lush old trees grew rapidly from the edge of the arena, forming a circle around the venue. The treetops darkened the air in an instant, and small fluorescent insects in the air took over the task of lighting.

On the field, clusters of beautiful flowers bloomed everywhere, and under the fluorescent light, the place looked like a fairyland.

Yu Cang raised his brows slightly.

It’s a new venue… In the previous duel, Lan Jun used the most basic “Night Garden”, and now it has been upgraded to level five… Is he using the epic venue directly?

"Three seconds!" Lan Jun held up three fingers. "In the 'Garden of Trees and Flowers,' it only takes three seconds for any of your summoned beasts to fall into a deep sleep. With only three seconds to act, you won't be able to make any effective moves... You have no choice but to surrender. You have no room for resistance!"

"Really?" Yu Cang reached out and touched the card box.

"Oh, I know you still have a 'Burial Bluestone Flower Ancient Dragon' that grants immunity to sleep, but I won't give you the chance to summon that soul card! - Midnight has arrived, wake up, and use your hideous stone faces to awaken all those who are sleeping soundly!"

box!

The two stone towers that had existed since the beginning of the game suddenly made a strange "cracking" sound, and then a sharp and strange cry came from the gargoyle's head. With a "bang", the gargoyle on the top of the stone tower directly spread its wings, with red light in its eyes, and actually flew into the sky with its heavy base!

Although it was flying shakily and at a slow speed, and seemed to have the possibility of crashing at any time, it did fly!

These two stone towers are flying in the sky, and there is no need to talk about attacking. Just using their extremely heavy weight to fall from the sky is enough to kill many summoned beasts in seconds!

I don’t know if Yu Cang’s shield can withstand a few more hits.

"Thank you, Yu Cang." Lan Jun's lips turned pale, but a smile still appeared on his face. "It's shameless to say this, but it's true - it wasn't me who defeated you today, but your own achievements!"

Yu Cang was silent.

This is not wrong.

Originally, although the Night Garden deck can directly pull out the field after the silent round ends, at this time, the scene is simply not enough.

You have to know that this is an epic venue, and one that consumes a lot of energy. Once it arrives, Lan Jun's soul energy well will be extremely exhausted. It will take minutes to naturally replenish a full tube of soul energy.

At this time, apart from the field, the only things on the field were the things summoned by the tube of soul energy during the silent round... Normally, this tube of soul energy would mostly summon small fry.

Facing the opponent's summoned beast, even if the action time is only three seconds, it is still possible to be directly defeated by the spell card. By then, there will be no scene. If Lan Jun wants to win, he still has to cancel the scene himself.

However, the emergence of the Creator Clan gave Lan Jun the opportunity to create a bigger scene with less soul energy!

The Creation Clan consumes less energy and has low pressure. Even if these two gargoyles are just blank, their defense and durability are very high. They definitely cannot be dealt with within three seconds!

In the past, this tactic was paired with a goalkeeper statue, but compared to the slow goalkeeper statue, the gargoyle's flexibility is satisfactory, with a larger operating space and stronger power.

Not to mention, the gargoyle's [Heavenly Sense] is still unknown, and the Garden of Trees and Flowers definitely has other abilities...

Looking at Lan Jun, a smile slowly appeared on Yu Cang's lips.

"You seem to think that you have already won?"

Lan Jun was stunned. "Why, isn't it? Even if your deck has more powerful powers, you won't have the chance to deploy them during these three seconds of insurmountable slumber... Even if you successfully deploy them, you'll still fall asleep!"

The epic venue has a 100% impact on epic summoned beasts.

If you say three seconds, it will be three seconds.

"Three seconds...is that short? No, it's more than enough." Yu Cang stretched out his hand and gently threw down a soul card. "I summon the Mustard Seed Flying Gu!"

When he summoned this soul card, the half-dragon headhunter in front of him had already fallen into a deep sleep.

But, it doesn't matter anymore.

Connect Summon!

The mustard seed flying insect turned into a torrent of information before it even landed on the ground, and crashed into an anchor ring that appeared out of thin air.

The mind-devouring insect, Sequel!

As soon as Xu landed on the ground, he turned into a silver light and rushed out.

Lan Jun's eyes narrowed. Although he didn't know what abilities this bug had, it was obvious that no matter what Yu Cang wanted to do, he would not let Yu Cang get what he wanted.

"Gargoyle, activate: [Shock]!"

One of the gargoyles flapped its wings, and its body suddenly accelerated and fell downwards. At the same time, the red light in its eyes immediately dimmed, and the entire statue fell into silence again at this moment.

[Shocking] is the gargoyle's sensing ability.

After being affected by the [Sleep] effect, the Gargoyle will instantly come alive. It also gains [Shock], which will activate and return it to stone form, causing it to fall from the sky, dealing heavy damage.

The most powerful thing is that if the gargoyle "comes alive" multiple times in one summoning, then every time it comes alive, [Spirit Shock] will bring bonuses to the gargoyle's speed, strength, and defense. If this cycle continues, the gargoyle will become more flexible and stronger than some speed-type summoned beasts!

And under the cover of the deep garden of trees and flowers, it is too easy for the gargoyle to come alive.

…

On stage.

Wen Renge looked surprised.

"Lan Jun has made great progress during this period."

With this set of soul cards, the suppression power in the early stage is maximized, making it impossible for the opponent to pull out the big brother, and even if they pull out the big brother, they may not be able to defeat him.

In the last duel, Lan Jun was defeated because the entire venue was melted by the dragon of the Sacrifice Vortex Realm. This time... maybe that won't happen.

The Deep Garden of Trees and Flowers is much larger than the Night Garden, and the Dragon of the Vortex probably can’t eat it.

He hissed, "It seems that Lan Jun's ranking will have to move up in this internal competition."

"I feel the same way." Lu Zihe nodded. "Could it be that Yu Cang will lose this first match?"

There was nothing wrong with her expression.

Duels between soul card masters are ever-changing, and no one will always win.

Although Lan Jun lost to Yu Cang, it is very common for him to come back in the second game.

"I don't think so." Wen Renge smiled, his eyes flashing with undisguised expectation, "Yu Cang...he won't lose so easily..."

He has been looking forward to this day and the duel with Yu Cang for a long time!

He believed that someone like Yu Cang would not lose so easily... at least, not before he met him.

…

Yu Cang's expression did not change.

Three seconds is almost up.

If the timing is right, the gargoyle will hit Xu just when he falls asleep... Lan Jun's control of time is very accurate.

But, after three seconds, just three more seconds.

"Connection Summon!"

Buzz!

Xu's body suddenly turned into a torrent of information. The next second, the gargoyle fell to the ground with huge force, and dust scattered for a moment, but such an attack obviously could not break the torrent of information.

The torrent crashed into the anchor ring, and Kong's figure suddenly appeared!

box--!

The gargoyle's eyes glowed red again, and it looked like it wanted to fly up again as quickly as possible, relying on the [Shock] panel, but Kong naturally wouldn't let it go so easily!

brush!

A flash of silver light!

The sharp cold light flashed across the sky with the legs, and each leg cut the same place on the gargoyle!

Kela Lala!!

In an instant, stone chips flew everywhere!

A shallow cut was imprinted on the gargoyle's neck, causing it to scream and flap its wings before flying into the sky!

At the same time, Lan Jun's face changed.

what happened?

Why, that bug wasn't put to sleep? ...No, that's not right. It wasn't put to sleep, it was replaced by a different bug!

The anchor rings of Kong and Xu are located on the left and right sides respectively. Although this difference is not obvious, it can still be easily noticed with the observation ability of the soul card master.

Moreover, this is not the key point.

Click!

The duel shield in front of Lan Jun's face was emitting residual light, and six chaotic slash marks appeared on it. The slight shattering sound was transmitted into Lan Jun's ears at close range, making his hair stand on end!

What's happening...who's attacking him?

Is that... little bug?

He quickly raised his head, and the scene he saw made his pupils shrink.

Waves of silver light filled the sky, and the figure wrapped in insects rose up, flickering around the gargoyle like a ghost, making it almost invisible.

…

【Space Anchoring】!

Kong can be teleported to any target connected or indirectly connected to the soul card at any time!

When summoning it, Sora had already connected the anchor point to one of the gargoyles!

Even though Kong couldn't fly, he couldn't get rid of this gargoyle!

Sora's leg slashes didn't seem to do much damage to the gargoyle, but that didn't matter.

I can't scratch you, but I can scratch your master.

[Spirit Devouring] allows Kong to cause damage to the owner of the summoned beast at the same time when attacking!

Lan Jun, you can't hold on for long.

Three seconds passed quickly, but...

"Connect the summon!" Yu Cang ordered again.

Buzz!

Kong turned into a torrent of information and crashed into the anchor ring, and Xu's figure appeared in it.

When a sequence becomes the connection material of a void attribute soul card, it can immediately refresh its own death cooldown, which means... it can be summoned at any time!

Moreover, when Xu is summoned, she can also refresh the death cooldown of the soul card that serves as her material. Now, Kong has also been refreshed and can continue fighting at any time!

Three seconds?

That's enough.

Everyone has three seconds, three seconds plus three seconds, my time is endless!

As soon as it appeared, Xu's eyes were fixed on the gargoyle.

Compared to Kong, her fighting style is much crazier!

"I'm coming!"

When using Sky as a link material, the summoned beast can gain [Sky Flash].

Simply put, it is teleportation plus invisibility.

brush!

The silver light flickered, dancing among countless fireflies, carrying a terrifying, ghostly edge as it moved.

Thanks to Weihuohu nv for the reward!
