Chapter 212 The gaze on the bench
Gu Jieshuang admitted defeat.
In fact, she also knew that her chance of defeating Yu Cang could only exist in the early and middle stages.
As long as Yu Cang summons the first epic, it will be basically difficult for her to win.
After all, her deck is still at level four, and the soul energy consumption of various spell cards cannot keep up with the battle rhythm of level five.
If she had a buff spell card that matched the current soul energy consumption, she would still have a chance to fight against Yu Cang's various epics.
In fact, if her opponent was not Yu Cang, but another level five soul card master, Gu Jieshuang would still have the possibility of winning - bypassing the summoned beast and directly threatening the soul card master is also one of the skills that melee soul card masters must learn.
But Yu Cang directly summoned the Weeping Girl. With her around, it would be difficult for Gu Jieshuang to break through the Sword Saint by relying solely on martial arts.
The Weeping Girl's martial arts skills were not much better than Gu Jieshuang's, but she had more combat experience and a sharp eye. She could see through what Gu Jieshuang wanted to do at a glance. Coupled with the Sword Saint's impressive panel, she could easily stop Gu Jieshuang.
Although she also has an aunt, she doesn't have a second epic summoning card for the aunt to use. Even if the aunt controls the Frost Sword or the Cold Iron Sword, she probably still won't be able to stop the Weeping Girl.
Gu Jieshuang loosened her grip, but the Bingxin Sword did not fall to the ground. Instead, it was covered with a layer of ice and floated in the air. From it came the voice of the aunt:
"Jie Shuang, it's okay. It's not shameful to lose to Yu Cang."
Frost Wings has always known that Yu Cang is a very powerful fighter.
As a conscious being, she naturally recognized that the Dragon Eye Sword Saint in front of her was played by another conscious being.
Even though she'd been getting beaten by the Weeping Maiden, Frostwing had no desire to fight back. While she had a short temper, she was a very calm person unless someone provoked her... She'd been that way in life, and now that she'd died, she was even more so.
What's more, she recognized the Weeping Girl.
Back in the Bloodline Empire, wasn't it the Weeping Girl who manipulated the Dragon Girl Qi'er to save herself from Yaoqi?
Therefore, she didn't really care about her savior being beaten.
Moreover, the young people nowadays are too ruthless in their attacks. If Frostwing really uses his real skills to deal with Weeping Maiden, but still fails in the end, wouldn't that be very embarrassing?
It would be better to just lie down from the beginning... Gu Jieshuang didn't ask me to help anyway.
"I know, auntie."
"Okay, then I'll go back to sleep. Call me if you need anything." Frostwing's voice seemed to yawn, and then the ice layer quickly dissipated from the sword.
The Bingxin Sword lost its support and fell from the air, but before it hit the ground, Gu Jieshuang canceled the summons and it turned into soul card fragments and dissipated in the air.
"Boss, don't get too complacent. Once I perfect my deck, I'll definitely come back for another fight with you!"
"Okay, I'll wait." Yu Cang smiled.
He waved his hand, and the Sword Saint of Dragon Eye and the Dragon Slayer also turned into soul card fragments and dissipated.
After possessing the combined dragon scales, Yu Cang's deck's operational capabilities have been taken to a new level. Victory is inevitable against Gu Jieshuang, who has just reached level five.
Nong Weiran was right. Yu Cang did indeed let go a lot of pressure in the battle.
Summoning the Plague Beast at the beginning is not a good choice. Even if Feng were to control this big guy, he probably wouldn't be able to catch the agile Gu Jieshuang. If Gu Jieshuang was a little smarter, he wouldn't attack the Plague Beast to earn dragon scales for Yu Cang.
This step is a waste of soul energy and useless, it's nothing more than giving up.
However, because it was a duel with Gu Jieshuang, Yu Cang didn't care much about winning or losing. After all, whoever won between the two of them didn't matter. When it came to the swordsmanship competition later, Yu Cang was already playing around.
After all, she couldn't let Gu Jieshuang suffer a setback all the time. She had to let Jieshuang surpass her in swordsmanship, so that she wouldn't say later that she had been bullying her.
As for whether Gu Jieshuang would be angry because he deliberately let her win - definitely not. If she really took this duel so seriously, she wouldn't have come to him without upgrading her deck as soon as she reached level 5.
When Gu Jieshuang really wants to fight seriously, Yu Cang will definitely give his all.
Didn’t you see that Gu Jieshuang’s first sword strike was also deliberately crooked?
Thinking of this, Yu Cang couldn't help but chuckle.
Gu Jieshuang puffed out her cheeks: "Boss, what are you laughing at?"
"No, I thought of something happy."
"You!" Gu Jieshuang glared.
"Come to think of it," Yu Cang changed the subject. "It seems your roommates are all gone. Are they okay?"
"They..." Gu Jieshuang took out his personal terminal and found that Nong Weiran had sent him several messages.
The gist of it is to let her be affectionate with the boss, and they went back to the dormitory.
Gu Jieshuang coughed lightly a few times and with the help of her aunt, she did not let her face turn red.
Really, what does it mean to be so affectionate?
She and the boss haven't confirmed their relationship yet, so she's completely innocent!
Gu Jieshuang put away the terminal as if nothing had happened: "They have something to do, so they went back first."
"Well... shall we go to the card making house for lunch?"
"Okay!" Gu Jieshuang nodded repeatedly.
Alas, ever since the boss became busy, the chances to eat his noodles have become less and less!
"By the way, I think I have a level 5 Frost Sword deck in my shop. You can take it directly... I'll think about it later and make a few special soul cards for you."
"Okay, boss." Gu Jieshuang patted his chest. "Don't worry, just put the money for the deck into my account. I won't default on it!"
She owes a lot now and doesn't care so much.
A level 5 card deck costs only a few hundred thousand at most. Compared with her 20 million in debt - it's nothing!
She later secretly asked Ren Zheng to estimate the price of the heirloom soul card "Ancient Frost Sky Will".
As a result, this time, even Ren Zheng seemed very hesitant.
There was no way around it. He had never seen a similar soul card before, so he had no way of estimating its price. However, Ren Zheng believed that based on his experience with this card, it was definitely more expensive than Frost Sky Slash.
For some reason, when Gu Jieshuang heard the news, the pressure in her heart was relieved a lot.
This may be what is meant by "the more debt you have, the less worry you have."
Anyway, that’s the worst that can happen.
…
In the next few days, Yu Cang implemented the soul card patterns combined with dragon scales on every soul card in the deck.
Now, any dragon scales created from the soul cards in his deck will have the power of fusion, which means his battle rhythm will be greatly accelerated.
Originally, the Light and Shadow Dragon deck was a late-game deck, but now with the combination of Dragon Scales, it can directly exert its strength in the early and middle stages and remain strong until the end of the battle.
No tricks, just intensity.
Now, his focus on attribute implantation has fallen on upgrading several Dragonborn. As long as these Dragonborn are given some powerful abilities, he will no longer have a weak period.
But perhaps his luck had run out, as he hadn't produced any useful abilities in the past few days.
The results of entry insertion are mostly too fancy, as if taking a detour.
Yu Cang was not in a hurry and just tried it slowly.
Gu Jieshuang has been busy again these days, and sometimes she doesn't even have time to go to the card-making shop.
After all, she is the vice president of the Combat Club. She has been in the treatment bureau for the past few days. The Combat Club has accumulated a lot of things that need her to deal with.
After all, it would be inappropriate for her to leave everything to Shang Youshan.
This day.
Yu Cang was sitting in a corner of the Jieying campus, thinking about something.
The appearance of the Jieying campus has changed a lot today. The buildings generated by Jieying itself at the beginning are indeed very exotic, but after all, Jieying directly copied other worlds, so many places are not suitable for human habitation.
Although everyone in this place is just a line of sight and there is not much demand for space, but considering that the rhythmic body will definitely need to be condensed later, Guan Qingrui still asked his researchers to renovate this place during this period of time.
What can be expanded will be expanded, and what cannot be expanded will be demolished and rebuilt. Anyway, everything here is composed of rhythm. These demolition works are free of charge, and researchers can even deepen their understanding of the starry sky field in the process.
But no matter what, no one touched the big tree in the center.
Principal Ren Zheng had already requisitioned this place for a library, practically living there these days. Yu Cang had been inside a few times before, and while the lower floors were still empty, the middle and upper floors had a number of "Rhythm Books" that he could browse through, all containing Ren Zheng's own knowledge.
It has to be said that since Old Man Ren holds the mythical guardian of the country, his card-making skills are unquestionable. Now Ren Zheng is just making some unimportant rhythms in his memory into a book of rhythm, but even so, when Yu Cang flips through these books, he has an epiphany every few pages.
It must be said that this method of directly turning the rhythm itself into a book is extremely convenient. If it were outside, this level of knowledge would no longer be possible to be transmitted through text. If a teacher wanted to teach it to students, they could only make it into related soul cards or resonance stones.
The former is inefficient, while the latter is complex and cannot be mass-produced.
But in the Jieying Library, flipping through these rhythms is no different from reading a book, and the Book of Rhythms can be flipped through repeatedly, unlike the Resonance Stone, which will disappear after a few uses.
Of course, there are drawbacks. Flipping through the Book of Rhythm is essentially the same as perceiving the world outside the Jieying Campus. It requires a very high level of mental strength from the user, making it impossible to flip through it for a long time.
Even Yu Cang, who had condensed his rhythmic body, could not see much at one time and had to rest, not to mention others.
This place is destined to be deserted in the short term.
But this did not dampen Ren Zheng's enthusiasm.
In fact, if he didn't have so much knowledge of rhythm that could not be made public in his mind, he would have to screen them one by one when making the Book of Rhythm, and there might be a few more floors filled up now.
Yu Cang did not go to the Jieying Library, but just found an inconspicuous corner in the Jieying campus and sat on a bench.
Around him, light pink clouds and mists swirled, dotted with stars, making the place look like a fairyland.
There was no one around. Those researchers couldn't stay in the Jieying campus for long. They didn't have enough time to study, so they definitely wouldn't wander around the streets.
But for Yu Cang, the scenery here is nice and there is no one to disturb him, which is very suitable for thinking.
There is not much time left before the agreed duel with Duan Feng.
He had tried to inquire about Duan Feng's deck construction and did get some information, but it was all too outdated.
The most recent piece of news was from before he reached level five.
Although it seems from these information that Duan Feng is using an ordinary Light and Shadow Dragon deck, Yu Cang dare not use the method to deal with a normal Light and Shadow Dragon to deal with Duan Feng.
Just like him, the playing style of his deck is very different from that of the Light and Shadow Dragon. If he wants to use the same method to deal with an ordinary Light and Shadow Dragon to deal with him, he will definitely suffer a loss.
His deck is already like this. Duan Feng has so many card makers, even national card makers, standing behind him. His deck definitely cannot be calculated by common sense.
There is still a lot of room for improvement in the Light and Shadow Dragon deck.
Therefore, gathering intelligence is very important. However, as of now, the Duan family has hidden Duan Feng's deck information very well. Yu Cang has tried many methods but has not been able to obtain any useful information.
Forget it then.
Although the lack of intelligence made him feel a little uncertain, Yu Cang was no longer afraid of him. If he couldn't gather any intelligence, he could just focus on improving his deck.
Suddenly, Yu Cang's eyes moved.
He seemed to sense something, and his rhythmic body turned slightly, looking in a certain direction. His gaze spread beyond the Jieying campus and focused on a certain flowing rhythm.
The rhythm of that place meant... there was a person there, and Yu Cang could feel that this person was looking in this direction.
He discovered the Starry Sky Vision?
Yu Cang was very interested.
It was the first time he met someone who discovered the Starry Sky Vision without the help of the channel to the other world.
No, to be precise, it was not the Starry Sky Vision that was discovered, but the Jieying Campus.
The Jieying Campus covers the Ancient Capital University and is independent of the Starry Sky Vision. This is the world formed by Jieying separating a part of his body. It is closer to the real world than the Starry Sky Vision and is easier to be perceived by the outside world.
It’s already amazing to be able to see the Jieying campus on your own.
Of course, seeing and entering are not the same thing. Now, he may only be able to vaguely sense that there is a world here, but he doesn't even know what is in the world.
"Interesting." Yu Cang patted the bench beside him and said, "Jieying, please invite him in and have a seat."
Since this person was within the boundaries of the Ancient Capital campus, he must be either a student or a faculty member. Yu Cang was also willing to communicate with such a talented person - after the two professors' researchers had mastered the Starry Sky Vision, such a genius would undoubtedly be the most suitable person to learn the Starry Sky Vision.
"Yes, Master Scholar."
Jieying's huge body swam and dived outside the bubble. The next second, a vague light and shadow rose beside him, and his sight was sent to the bench.
He was obviously a little confused, looking around, not knowing what was going on.
"Hello." Yu Cang said with a smile, "This is the Jieying Campus of Gudu University. What's your name?"
The sight formed by the interweaving of light and shadow was somewhat silent.
Yu Cang was not in a hurry either. He knew that being suddenly dragged to such a place would definitely require some adaptation.
So he didn't urge her, but just smiled and looked at the sight.
After an unknown amount of time, a voice came from within the sight:
"Hello...you can call me Feng."
Thanks to Xiang Nanmuyun for the tip! Also, thank you all for your blessings!
