Chapter 150

The blade of chaos slashed down, drawing the curtain on this duel.

Until the duel image disappeared, the card professors were still stunned on the spot, looking at the position where Black Luster Soldier disappeared for a long time, unable to speak for a while.

Still immersed in the shock of "your blank card actually has effects"...

Master Tianma Tiamen Yexing stood up again very quickly.

"A good duel, I lost." He pondered for a moment. "However, Black Luster Soldier... actually obtained such powerful abilities through Ritual materials, so is this the correct evolutionary direction for chaos?

It turns out that the direction of research until now has always been wrong..."

He glanced at Mokuba beside him.

"As expected of the Kaiba Corporation, known for its research capabilities, to have achieved such an astonishing breakthrough. In this way, the academic claim that Black Luster Soldier had long reached a bottleneck is self-defeating."

"Thanks for the compliment, but this time it's not our credit." Mokuba smiled and gestured to Fujiki You Xuan. "It was Black Luster Soldier who chose him.

Just the opposite of what you said, we are the ones who owe it to him that we could achieve this result."

Tiamen Yexing was a little surprised and looked at Fujiki You Xuan again.

He squinted his eyes. Fujiki You Xuan noticed that he seemed to be looking at something behind him.

Fujiki You Xuan followed his gaze and looked back, seeing Black Luster Soldier, who had returned to his spirit state after the duel ended, standing behind him like a bodyguard with his hand on the hilt of his sword.

Fujiki You Xuan realized something: "Can you see it?"

"Yes. My 'Spirit Affinity' is quite high." Master Tianma Tiamen Yexing smiled. "I see, no wonder you have this level of power... Are you also a 'Chosen Duelist'?"

After all, having been a holder of the Wicked Gods, it was normal for Master Tianma Tiamen Yexing's spirit affinity ability to be high.

"Powerful spirits are indeed the duelist's reliance, but aren't first-class duelists also the spirit's good fortune?"

Tiamen Yexing closed his eyes and smiled lightly.

"I lost, there's nothing to say. Even..."

He paused and looked at Fujiki You Xuan and the Black Luster Soldier behind him.

"That form of 'Black Luster Soldier', actually didn't show its full power, right?"

The card professors felt a chill in their hearts when they heard this.

Even like this, it's still not its full power?

At least in their view, the suppression power Black Luster Soldier just showed was already incomparable to ordinary monsters.

"Mr. Master Tianma is really sharp..." Fujiki You Xuan also admitted. "Indeed."

Beginning and Evening Twilight, the two materials actually endowed Black Luster Soldier with more effects.

The Black Luster Soldier summoned using these two knights as materials at the same time could actually activate "Dimension Slash" up to twice per turn, choosing two monsters to banish from play.

Or it could also separately choose the abilities of "additional attack after destroying a monster by battle" and "sealing a card in the hand until the end of the next opponent's turn".

So this blank card not only had effects, but also had a variety of effects, and the skills were very rich. In actual combat, it was easy to give the opponent the illusion that "because it's not written on the card, I can have whatever I want"...

"Sure enough, then it's a pity I didn't get to see his remaining abilities. Then I hope I can have the chance to visit again in the future."

Tiamen Yexing smiled, then turned around, and suddenly said toward the high place.

"Then does President Kaiba have any pointers for this duel?"

Everyone followed his gaze and only then discovered that President Seto Kaiba had appeared on the second-floor railing of the dueling arena at some point without a sound.

Mokuba was pleasantly surprised: "Brother!"

Kaiba said nothing, leaped over the railing, and landed in a half-squat.

The first reaction that posture gave Fujiki You Xuan was that landing like this really hurts the knees.

The next thought was, humans can't handle this height, right? President, are you sure you haven't taken something like Super Soldier Serum?

Can you give me a shot too...

Mokuba quickly went up to meet him. Kaiba walked up with his arms crossed and looked at Tiamen Yexing.

After a few seconds of silence, Tiamen Yexing spoke first.

"I've actually always wanted to have the chance to say this..."

Tiamen Yexing said softly.

"I'm very sorry about what happened back then, President Kaiba."

Kaiba looked at him for a moment, didn't pay attention, and just turned his back to him.

Several card professors seemed a bit angry at this suspected contemptuous display and wanted to say something, but were stopped by Tiamen Yexing's glare.

Kaiba walked two steps, stopped briefly, and said without looking back.

"You guy... at least count as a duelist." He said. "If you are a duelist, then become stronger, and then challenge me head-on."

As he said this, the President turned his head and gave a confident, cold-smiling profile.

"Of course, I'm afraid you don't have that courage anymore."

Tiamen Yexing was stunned, then smiled too.

"I understand." He said seriously. "This is a promise as a duelist."

"Hmph."

Kaiba didn't look back again, this time looking at Fujiki You Xuan.

"Fujiki You Xuan's performance today was simply divine, first fighting the card professors in the Link System, and then the duel just now..." Mokuba immediately said good things. "And he just got the new Black Luster Soldier card today, and he can already use it so skillfully, right brother?"

Kaiba didn't speak, but his eyes indeed contained some approval.

It hadn't been long since he last met Fujiki You Xuan, but in such a short time, the progress shown was so astonishing.

The card addiction was starting to show signs of flaring up again.

"Battle City, don't forget." Kaiba reminded. "Don't let me down when the time comes."

"Of course." Fujiki You Xuan nodded.

The premise is that there must be resources...

"By the way, President, I also remembered one thing." Fujiki You Xuan said. "Actually, I have been very passionate about Duel Monsters since I was a child, not just dueling, but also the excavation of Duel Monsters, card design research, etc., I am also very interested.

Recently, the academy teachers also discovered my extraordinary talent in this area and intend to guide and cultivate it. With the support of the academy, I am establishing a laboratory..."

"Get to the point."

The President interrupted.

So Fujiki You Xuan honestly cut to the chase: "We lack money."

That's how honest and unpretentious he was.

This was actually something he had done a background check on before coming to the Kaiba Corporation headquarters today. He knew that the President had been vigorously promoting Duel Monster scientific research and development in all fields over the years, not only with many research teams under his own command but also with many investments.

Many research institutes and individual teams had received investments from the Kaiba Corporation through different channels. The President seemed to have specially set up a related fund to invest in and develop Duel Monster research teams that he felt had potential.

Fujiki You Xuan now had a small laboratory of his own, which could be considered a research team at the starting stage. The President investing and allocating funds was just a matter of one sentence.

Sure enough, the President, who heard about needing money, was not angry, but rather quite approving.

It seemed he felt that he had promise.

He had always advocated scientific card printing; his own basket of White Dragon armors all came from this.

For the President, this was originally just a small matter of lifting a finger, so he didn't hesitate and said one word.

"Fine."
