Chapter 169

Pegasus actually asked his name right away, without asking the other two people who were with him. You Xuan was a bit surprised.

Then You Xuan caught a glimpse of Tiamen Yexing, who was watching from behind without saying a word.

Should it be that Tiamen Yexing went back and mentioned their last duel to Pegasus?

It's not impossible.

So You Xuan answered politely without losing humor: "Fujiki You Xuan. Mr. Pegasus can call me You Xuan Boy~"

This is Pegasus's classic verbal tic; in the original work, it was "Yugi Boy," "Kaiba Boy." Now Pegasus is a senior and older than You Xuan, so it's not strange to call him "Boy."

Pegasus laughed loudly.

"Good good, You Xuan Boy~, as expected as Tiamen Yexing said, he is an interesting duelist~"

Hearing Pegasus's accent as intoxicating as in his memory, You Xuan felt relieved.

"Just as Tianma said, our card design needs not only passion but also wild imagination and the spirit of daring to explore."

Pegasus turned to face everyone and said.

"If you are only satisfied with the status quo, if you are afraid of making changes, the road will not open in front of us. So I hope everyone can be like You Xuan Boy, open your thinking, and be brave to try."

The big shot spoke, and the experts naturally echoed.

"Mr. Pegasus is right."

"It is exactly the role model for us researchers!"

Then Pegasus turned around, patted You Xuan on the shoulder, and said softly with a smile: "I'm counting on you, You Xuan Boy~"

After saying that, he turned and left.

Misawa, who was like a transparent person next to him, swallowed his saliva and looked at You Xuan strangely.

It was rumored that he was the man Kaiba Seto took a fancy to, and now it seems that Mr. Pegasus, who is known as the father of Duel Monsters, actually seems to be interested in him too...

Misawa became more and more convinced that his initial judgment was correct.

This guy, from construction, card playing to card printing, the whole person from head to toe exudes unscientific vibes. Or rather, precisely because it is so unscientific, he can naturally attract the attention of big shots wherever he goes...

Damn it, he was clearly standing right next to him shoulder-to-shoulder, why did the big shot who passed by ignore him directly?

Even though his grades are also very good and his research is also very hard-working...

Sishize Sky fell into deep thought.

It seems that Pegasus shouldn't have just arrived; he might have been observing in secret during the duel just now.

The reason why he appeared at this time after watching the game, You Xuan speculated, shouldn't just be because Tianma Tiamen Yexing mentioned him, mostly because the duel just now also aroused his interest.

Tianma Tiamen Yexing might also be responsible for the organization of this meeting, and it is possible that he told Pegasus something. So they know that although Asuka is the one using the Cyber deck as the main force, the one controlling the research direction is actually You Xuan.

In other words, that Cyber Angel with a strange style and quite a bit of Wei Wu's legacy just now must also be his idea...

Pegasus's attitude seems to appreciate this.

However, You Xuan thought about it and felt it seemed to be the case.

During the Duelist Kingdom period, when Pegasus was the BOSS, his Toon deck also took pleasure in turning the opponent's monsters into Toon versions. The Relinquished series, as the final trump card, was the ancestor of NTR that maxed out the underworld index in the early years.

And the deeds of taking out the Dragon Capture Jar to make President Kaiba smoke from seven orifices...

Tracing back like this, the one with the most Cao Thief spirit should actually be him. If one wants to rank the underworld people of Yu-Gi-Oh, even the famous Malik Ma-san would have to call him a senior.

You Xuan seemed to realize something.

Sure enough, avatars of the same type will attract each other; maybe it was similar hidden traits that attracted Pegasus's gaze...

It seems that after this meeting today, the sponsorship of the International Illusion Society is also within reach.

"..."

The meeting started, basically experts introduced the results of their respective teams one by one.

You Xuan soon also noticed that the so-called results are not necessarily printing new cards; many people just proposed some new ideas or directions that have been verified to a certain extent and organized them into papers.

After all, innovative breakthroughs are not every day, and not everyone is like him who opened a cheat that can predict the future.

It's not that there are no new cards at the meeting, but at least You Xuan felt that most of them looked like meaningless things that K-Group stuffed into card boxes to make up the numbers.

But it's also normal. In the bottomless card pool of Yu-Gi-Oh, the probability of fishing out a handful of meaningless things is really not small.

For example, the strangest one seen today is this one.

【Trap Card - Unlucky Report

Effect: The opponent performs two Battle Phases.】

You Xuan must admit that he really doesn't remember that there was such a card in the card pool.

How should I put it...

Can't say it's useless. Because big shots have said that there are no completely useless cards in Yu-Gi-Oh. It seems that no matter how strange and useless things look, there are always acrobatics that can play a role.

But it can only be said that it is indeed difficult to control, and it tests the imagination of card players.

There is another meaningless thing.

【Spell Card - Evil Ritual

Effect: The battle positions of all monsters on the field are swapped, and the battle positions of monsters cannot be changed in the turn activated. This card can only be activated in the Standby Phase.】

At first glance, hmm, no problem. A card that forces the change of battle positions on the whole field is still useful.

But at second glance.

Normal Spell?

Can only be activated in the Standby Phase?

One sentence stunned people.

As everyone knows, in this game of Yu-Gi-Oh, Normal Spell is a Speed 1 effect and can only be used in your own Main Phase. And in the Standby Phase, only Speed 2 effects like Trap cards and Quick-Play Spells can be activated.

In other words, the effect of this card looks contradictory at first glance, and it is impossible to use it at all...

Then I heard the expert who gave the speech explain, saying that their team worked hard overnight and went through many difficulties, finally managing to overcome the problem that this card can never be activated.

After their team's technical upgrade, 【Evil Ritual】, although still a Normal Spell card, can be set on the field and activated in the next player's own Standby Phase.

You Xuan: "..."

Hmm, it really is... an epic breakthrough.

In fact, the official ruling of this card in reality is indeed like this. As an ancient old card, many people feel that it was printed wrong because K-Group was not careful when designing it in the early days, but later, according to the additional explanation adjusted by the official, although this card is a Spell card, it can indeed be set on the field and activated in the Standby Phase of the next own turn.

This is also the only Normal Spell card in the entire Yu-Gi-Oh card pool that can be actively activated in the Standby Phase, which can indeed be said to be a breakthrough progress that can be recorded in history...

However, there are only these two meaningless cards today. Although other people's reports don't have anything very bright, they are all normal and nothing worth mentioning.

Soon, according to the list, it was You Xuan and their turn.

"The results from the student team from Duel Academy should have been shown in advance by way of a duel before the meeting."

Tianma Tiamen Yexing, who presided over the meeting, said.

"Then, do you want to explain in detail in the form of a report? Or..."

"Of course."

You Xuan stood up and smiled.

"That was just a part of the results display we brought this time."

Everyone: "?"

He and Misawa looked at each other, the latter understood, stood up, and took out a few cards that had already been printed and ready.

"Actually, our team's research projects are not just in the Cyber direction."

"We also have slight research on the relationship between the Yokai-type and the Undead-type and have strengthened several Yokai cards on the original basis."

Experts: "???"

Are there masters?
