Chapter 454

Tenjou Hikari was gently rubbing his temples in the room, and Tiera on the side casually tossed him a piece of bread.

Tenjou Hikari closed his eyes, felt something being tossed over, caught it with his eyes closed, then opened his eyes to see, laughed, tore open the packaging, and started eating.

It was fortunate that the finals were tomorrow, otherwise Tenjou Hikari really wouldn't have been able to hold up.

Although it was said to be an ordinary duel and neither side used supernatural powers, the high-intensity mental consumption, as well as standing firm and drawing cards in the storm at high altitude, were very demanding on a person's physical strength.

Without resting and eating something, he felt he wouldn't even be able to stand firm on the airship deck.

"By the way, there is one more thing."

On the side, Tiera suddenly reached out as if digging for something, pulling at something in the rift of the dimension. After a while, she pulled a spirit out of the Great Universe Workshop.

It was Glow-Up Bulb.

No...

Tenjou Hikari noticed then that Glow-Up Bulb had grown much larger from its initial small bud.

Did it bloom?

Tenjou Hikari blinked gently. He raised his hand and greeted Glow-Up Bulb. Afterward, the little flower blinked its eyes and then whooshed back into the Great Universe Workshop.

This is also a characteristic of spirits, convenient and handy. Tenjou Hikari had no way to open a book and return to the workshop outside of school, otherwise, alchemy wouldn't have been so troublesome.

Tenjou Hikari opened the "Book of Emerald," flipped through it for a while, and sure enough, found "Blooming Flower."

It seems that the distance for the bulb to evolve into Aromage doesn't seem far.

"This little guy is much more serious than those two little brothers of Flame Swordsman." Tiera on the side said with her hands spread.

Flame Swordsman and Dark Flame Dragon brothers stayed in the Great Universe Workshop for so long, and in the end, it was only after she and Tenjou Hikari helped and refined them that they completely evolved. But Glow-Up Bulb was different; although it didn't say anything, it was seriously absorbing the power of the Philosopher's Stone in the Great Universe Workshop every day without the slightest slack.

Tenjou Hikari even only used Glow-Up Bulb for Synchro twice, and it had already evolved a brand-new card with the help of duel energy.

Its only problem might be that it is really too shy. This time, it noticed the Aromage sisters coming and really wanted to come out and act spoiled or something, but as a result, it saw a bunch of other spirits and hid directly.

It didn't even show Tenjou Hikari the card "Blooming Flower."

It was still Tiera, who could see everything at every moment, who noticed it, pulled the little bulb over, and then explained the situation.

Looking at the card, Tenjou Hikari thought for a while and said softly to the card: "Thank you for your support, don't worry, I won't waste your efforts."

The evolved Glow-Up Bulb, which is "Blooming Flower," is still a Tuner monster, and its level is still 1, but the difference is that the attribute of this card has become Dark, and the type has become Zombie.

Tenjou Hikari opened his deck and hurriedly took out "Vampire Fraulein."

Don't look at Tenjou Hikari being very calm every time he duels, but his deck is actually "precisely calculated."

Although Tenjou Hikari's control over Super Polymerization has become much higher, not every card will be directly fused away. Even some cards without Fusion monster protection won't actually be fused away at the first moment so quickly.

But that doesn't mean it won't happen.

So every monster in Tenjou Hikari's deck must be carefully selected every time it is placed.

Like Vampire Sorcerer and Vampire Fraulein, although they can be used as Fusion Materials by "Underworld Dragon," they are not cards of the orthodox Fusion faction after all. If they are kept in the deck for a long time, the risk is very high.

And another thing besides this is that although Tenjou Hikari hasn't been that bricked in formal duels, what if Vampire Fraulein is drawn directly one day? Wouldn't that be very troublesome?

So just in case, Tenjou Hikari still chose to remove Vampire Fraulein and another Tuner monster, put Blooming Flower into the deck, and then re-adjust it.

It is worth mentioning that Blooming Flower can even search for Zombie-Type monsters of Level 5 or higher, and at necessary moments, it can also get Vampire Familiar or Kuriboh, so its uses are still very extensive.

Besides that, it can also become a new Tuner in Tenjou Hikari's deck, and then Synchro into Muddy Mudragon.

These are all possibilities.

The duel with Wan Wan Wan Zhangmu definitely cannot use the same thinking as the duel with Maruto Ryō, so Tenjou Hikari prepared to adjust the deck slightly.

Although there was still one night to adjust the deck, Tenjou Hikari felt that taking advantage of the rest break to adjust slightly could also save some effort.

However, after he simply checked the deck for a while and replaced some components in the deck,

And just at this moment, a loud boom erupted outside.

Tenjou Hikari's movements paused. He quickly put away the deck, grabbed another piece of chocolate, picked up his Duel Disk, and walked out of the rest cabin.

Just after walking out of the rest cabin, Tenjou Hikari saw that in the distance, the duel had already begun.

"Am I late?"

"No, just in time, Tenjou."

Misawa greeted Tenjou Hikari from his side. He nodded, tore open the chocolate packaging, ate it casually, and walked forward.

Kaiser's coat had returned to its normal black color, and he was watching the duel with rapt attention.

Although he had already lost, he couldn't miss it when an excellent duel appeared before him.

At least in his view, almost every duelist here was worthy of "respect."

What's more, wouldn't it be interesting to watch a wonderful duel different from this one in the semifinals?

Seto Kaiba stood at the front of the airship, watching this duel begin.

Although he didn't specifically teach too much, Seto Kaiba had actually always been paying attention to Wan Wan Wan Zhangmu Jun.

From Wan Wan Wan Zhangmu Jun participating in elementary school competitions to losing to Jūdai Yuki last year in order to prove himself by entering Duel Academy, and thus feeling very disappointed.

Wan Wan Wan Zhangmu had been trying to imitate him since he was a child, but he—Seto Kaiba—could not be imitated.

However, last year, Wan Wan Wan Zhangmu met different friends at Duel Academy, dueled with different people, gained different growth, and even started to build his own company, striving toward a pure goal, so Seto Kaiba was very satisfied.

His only dissatisfaction was the "fear" that Wan Wan Wan Zhangmu Jun had developed since childhood.

Admiration, worship, imitation, these are not important. A true duelist does not need these things.

"Jun, let me take a good look at your growth."

And at this moment, the duel also proceeded to the next instant...

Wan Wan Wan Zhangmu looked at the Fusion and the three Ojamas in his hand, and a faint smile hung on his face.

"Yeah!" "Big Brother!" "It's here!"

If it were the Wan Wan Wan Zhangmu of the past, seeing these ugly, strangely shaped guys who were also noisy, he would definitely have scolded them.

But now it's different.

Wan Wan Wan Zhangmu has figured it out.

If you want to become the strongest duelist, you shouldn't despise or look down on any card.

"Here I go, I activate the Magic Card, Fusion! Fusing the three Ojamas in my hand, Fusion Summon, Ojama King!"

"Roar roar roar!"

A huge Ojama monster fell from the sky.

"Next, the effect of the card in the deck!"

"Deck?" The quarterfinalists exclaimed.

Everyone thought that Hikari and Kaiser had already performed all the tricks they could show, but didn't expect you to have another high-level move!?

"Transform! Armed Ojama King! When this card is on the field with a face-up 【Ojama King】, it can be added from the deck to the hand!"

"Then activate, by Tributing the Ojama King on the field, Special Summon 1 【Armed Ojama King】 from the hand/deck/graveyard!"
