Chapter 27. This child is an unparalleled genius! A hero? A tyrant!
Youfeng took a look at this deck and found it to be quite advanced.
At least in the Fourth Village, they have already completely overwhelmed the primitive people.
It would be really difficult for an average person to master.
Let alone ordinary villagers, even Qin Jian and Hai Huang, the most experienced people in Luoshen Village, might not be able to operate smoothly if they were to start hastily.
This requires not only a thorough understanding of the effects of each card, but also a deep practical understanding of the tactical framework and resource conversion rhythm of the entire [Hero] system.
Even more urgent was the fact that the pale blue hourglass phantom above the simulated duel arena began to flow—the system had only given them five minutes to launch their first attack.
The pressure was invisible, but Youfeng's eyes grew increasingly calm.
"My turn."
Without the slightest hesitation, he drew a card smoothly and naturally, and then placed a card in the spell trap zone without any hesitation.
"I activate the Spell Card from my hand—[Hero's Arrival]!"
The phantom image of the card lights up, depicting a stirring scene of heroes facing battle.
Pay half of your Life Points to Special Summon one Level 4 or lower Elemental HERO monster from your Deck!
[Wind LP: 8000 → 4000]
A flash of light, a surge of air! A lithe blue and white figure, accompanied by the hum of a jetpack, crashed into the monster zone of the wind!
"Special Summon - [Elemental HERO Sky Knight]!"
Clad in streamlined blue and white armor, the warrior's phantom stood proudly with sharp, eagle-like eyes, the thrusters on his back emitting faint flames, exuding an aura of authority.
"So fast?!" On the other side, Huang Yixiao, who had been calm and composed with a confident smile on his lips, suddenly narrowed his eyes and leaned forward slightly involuntarily.
He went first, making the first move without hesitation, immediately sacrificing half his health to summon [Elemental HERO Sky Knight]! This isn't the decisiveness a newbie would have! Is this kid just randomly attacking?
No, maybe they just know the effect of [Hero's Arrival], but how could it be such a coincidence that [Elemental HERO Sky Knight] is specially summoned?
Huang Yixiao forcibly suppressed his surprise and doubt, telling himself to take another look.
However, Youfeng's offensive was like a whirlwind, giving him no chance to catch his breath or think.
"Next, activate the effect of [Elemental HERO Sky Knight]!" Yufeng's voice was clear and steady, with a rhythmic quality that commanded the entire field. "When this card is Normal or Special Summoned, you can activate one of the following two effects."
He raised his hand and pointed to the [Elemental HERO Skywalker] on his field, or perhaps to the invisible deck.
"I choose: Add one 'Hero' monster from my deck to my hand!"
"I've chosen to join—[Phantom Hero: The Alone Good Man]!"
A card at the top of the deck was pulled out by an invisible force and landed precisely in Youfeng's hand.
"What?!"
Seeing this, Huang Yixiao could no longer remain calm and suddenly stood up from his chair!
His composure was completely replaced by shock, and his eyes were filled with disbelief.
Paying for a half-health summon for [Elemental Heroes Sky Knight] might be luck or a basic skill, but what about immediately and precisely searching for [Phantom Heroes: The Solitary Good Man]?
This is absolutely not a choice that someone with a superficial understanding of hero decks could make!
【Phantom Hero: The Solitary Good】is a key component and resource engine in the hero system. Its retrieval means that the operator is very clear about the next development chain!
This guy... isn't just messing around!
He truly understands! And he understands it very well!!
Huang Yixiao's heart was filled with turmoil.
Regardless of the outcome of this duel, the mysterious young challenger's ability to instantly understand and master an advanced and complex deck far exceeds the scope of mere knowledge; he is nothing short of a prodigy!
Such talent is one in a million!
A strong thought instantly surged in his mind—this child must not be buried in such a small market; he must be introduced to a wider stage!
Compared to the shock Huang Yixiao felt, most of the onlookers seemed somewhat bewildered.
They might recognize [Elemental Hero Sky Knight], but know very little about [Phantom Hero Sole] and the tactical significance behind him. They only think that Youfeng's operation is fast and cool, but they can't explain why he is so powerful.
Youfeng, however, paid no attention to the opinions of others. His entire focus was on the resonance with his deck and the race against time.
His fingers were long and steady, like spirits imbued with soul.
He picked up the newly acquired "Phantom Hero: The Almighty," slightly twisted his wrist, and exerted force with his fingers. The card seemed to come alive, spinning half a circle on his fingertip, tracing a graceful arc, and precisely tossed into the monster zone—not a simple swipe, but a rhythmic and visually stunning fancy maneuver!
"Next, activate the effect of [Phantom Hero: The Sovereign]!"
His movements were stylish, yet his speech remained perfectly organized.
"Discard one other 'HERO' monster from your hand, and Special Summon this card from your hand!"
A card in hand transforms into a stream of light and is sent into the graveyard area.
"Then, when this card is successfully Special Summoned, its effect activates!" Yuufu's voice flowed smoothly and effortlessly. "I treat one 'Phantom HERO' monster from my Deck, other than 'Phantom HERO Soleil,' as a Continuous Trap Card and place it face-up in my Spell & Trap Zone!"
The deck shines again.
"I've chosen to place—[Phantom Hero Incremental Man]!"
A phantom image of a card quietly appeared in Youfeng's back row, like an ambush.
"This isn't over yet!" Yufeng's offensive continued relentlessly. "Activate the effect of [Phantom HERO Incremental]! If this card is on the field as a Continuous Trap Card, during your or your opponent's Main Phase, you can Special Summon this card by Tributing 1 'HERO' monster you control!"
He pointed at the [Phantom Hero Almighty] on the field: "I release the [Phantom Hero Almighty] on the field! Special Summon—[Phantom Hero Increment]!"
The newly entered [Phantom Hero Alone] vanished into specks of light, while the phantom of the [Phantom Hero Incremental] card in the back row suddenly solidified, transforming into a blurry, agile hero seemingly composed of data and light, leaping onto the field!
"Furthermore, if [Phantom HERO Incremental] is successfully Special Summoned from the Spell/Trap Zone, its effect activates again!" Yuufu's voice suddenly rose, carrying an unstoppable momentum, "Special Summon one Level 4 or lower 'Phantom HERO' monster from your Deck!"
His hands seemed to have turned into phantoms at that moment.
As he flipped through the deck, his right fingertip accurately flicked out the target card, while his left hand flicked it in mid-air, making a receiving motion.
The card spun out and was caught firmly between the index and middle fingers of the left hand, stopping it in mid-air!
The movements were fluid, precise, and full of an indescribable rhythmic beauty and sense of power, as if they were not engaged in a tense duel, but performing a magnificent card magic show!
"I want to Special Summon—"
Youfeng slammed the card he was holding between his fingers onto the duel disk with a powerful, resounding sound that echoed throughout the arena.
"【Phantom Hero Android】!"
The phantom of the third hero descended upon the battlefield amidst ever-brighter light!
