Even as a 3D projection, she could almost feel the searing heat waves—and before the demon stood a massive iron cage, imprisoning the senior as if engaged in some kind of bondage play.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Molten Demon God, DEF 2500】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then You Xuan continued: “Activate the Spell Card ‘Desire’s Urn,’ and draw two more cards from your deck.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then activate this card from your hand—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—Spell Card—Planetary Transformation!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Add one Field Spell Card from your deck to your hand.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although this turn’s Desires’ Urn had accelerated filtering, she still hadn’t drawn the key Field Card—but drawing a search card was close enough. You Xuan reflected internally: he still had a long way to go on the path of divine draws, needing both persistent practice and more real-battle refinement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Add the Field Spell ‘Giant Machine City’ from your deck to your hand,” You Xuan said. “Then activate the Field Spell ‘Giant Machine City!’”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A rumbling roar echoed as intersecting bridges rose, and the metallic metropolis of mechanical commuters seized the duel field.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then set one card face-down on the field.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A black card’s projection appeared beside You Xuan’s feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Activate the effect of ‘Giant Machine City!’” You Xuan waved his hand. “Once per turn, destroy one card on your field and add one ‘Machine’ card from your deck to your hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I destroy this face-down card I just set.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The face-down card exploded into shards, revealing a massive garage projection before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“According to ‘Giant Machine City’s’ effect, add a second ‘Submarine Machine’ to your hand,” You Xuan said. “Although I cannot perform a Normal Summon this turn after summoning ‘Molten Demon God,’ the face-down card I just destroyed was ‘Miracle Garage.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When a face-down ‘Garage’ is destroyed and sent to the graveyard, Special Summon a Level 4 or lower Machine-Type monster from your hand.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He slapped the monster he had just searched onto his dueling field.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Appear! Submarine Machine Unit Two!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A second tiny submarine leapt onto the field, its expression glaring with “Super Scary.JPG.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Submarine Machine, ATK 800】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiang Xinghua’s lip twitched; though she held back words, her “what the f***” glare clearly said—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—It’s you again!?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some nearby La-Huang students who witnessed this scene felt an eerie familiarity, pitying the beautiful senior while secretly indulging in a slightly twisted satisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially those students who had personally endured the submarine’s torment over the past week—now they cursed You Xuan for having zero mercy, yet silently begged him to go even harder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“First, switch your first ‘Submarine Machine’ to Attack Position.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then enter the Battle Phase. First, the first ‘Submarine Machine’ attacks directly!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first submarine fired—two torpedoes shot past the front row, sweeping straight toward the senior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Flip the face-down card!” Xiang Xinghua shouted. “Trap Card—Growth! Double the ATK and DEF of one monster on your opponent’s field!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I double the ATK of your ‘Submarine Machine’ Unit One!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Submarine Machine, ATK 800 → ATK 1600】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Spectators: “Nani? She deliberately doubled the opponent’s ATK?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The other effect of ‘Growth!’” Xiang Xinghua said. “A monster whose ATK was doubled by this effect cannot perform a direct attack!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd finally understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“She sacrificed ATK to cleverly avoid direct attack. No wonder she’s a senior.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Moreover, now You Xuan can only target her face-down ‘Wild Warrior Woman’—and when that warrior is destroyed, she can Special Summon a Warrior-Type monster with ATK 1500 or less from her deck.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You Xuan had already anticipated this: “Then I accept the battle rebound from ‘Growth’—I forfeit Unit One’s attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But I still have Submarine Machine Unit Two. Unit Two, attack directly!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unit One retreated; Unit Two stepped forward with military precision, launching its torpedo missiles with a trail of bubbly visual effects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“At this moment, the Field Spell effect of ‘Giant Machine City’: when a ‘Machine’ monster battles, send one ‘Machine’ monster from your deck to the graveyard, and swap that monster’s original ATK and DEF!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Submarine Machine, ATK 800 → ATK 1800】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiang Xinghua’s face paled: “Direct attack with 1800 ATK?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before she could finish speaking, the torpedo jammed into her mouth. She let out a choked “Ugh!” and staggered backward under the explosion effect, her violent motion sparking a commotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Xiang Xinghua, LP 3200 → LP 1400】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You little brat,” Xiang Xinghua growled through gritted teeth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She struggled to suppress the urge to physically slap the opponent, clinging to her idol and ladylike image.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The ‘Submarine Machine’ that attacked switches to Defense Position. Then I set another face-down card. End my turn.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiang Xinghua forced herself to calm down, refocusing on her duel rhythm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My turn, draw!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“At this moment, ‘Molten Demon God’s’ effect!” You Xuan said. “During the Standby Phase, the controller of ‘Molten Demon God’ takes 1000 damage!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Nani?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiang Xinghua’s face turned ashen. She looked up—there, the ugly, clumsy lump was staring down at her, grinning like a fool.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then a torrent of scorching hot substance rained down, drenching her completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ugh!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Xiang Xinghua, LP 1400 → LP 400】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She glared upward, bloodshot eyes fixed on the opponent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that instant, her title as Duel Academy Miss, her three-time champion status—all vanished from her mind. Even the reason she was dueling now might have slipped away; only one pure thought remained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crush this old fox!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The card I drew is Equip Spell—Demon’s Axe!” she roared. “Change ‘Molten Demon God’ to Attack Position and equip it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The equipped monster gains 1000 ATK!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Molten Demon God, ATK 3000 → ATK 4000】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now your own monster’s ATK has reached 4000!” she snarled. “Feel the power of your own monster!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Molten Demon God’s attack—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Flip the face-down card,” You Xuan said calmly. “Continuous Trap—Torture Wheel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bind one monster on your field; that monster cannot attack or change its battle position.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I lock down ‘Molten Demon God’s’ attack!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiang Xinghua was about to explode.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What the hell is this? It burns my life, drains my blood, and now it won’t even let me attack?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, the Torture Wheel was tiny compared to the massive Molten Demon God—yet the dumb lump cooperated perfectly, extending its arms as if surrendering the moment the wheel flew toward it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The iron wheel shackled the lump’s arms; the Molten Demon God groaned a muffled “Aow!” and extended its bound hands toward Xiang Xinghua as if to say, “I’m sorry, I’m helpless.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>See? I’m not refusing to help—I’m under arrest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiang Xinghua’s blood pressure kept climbing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You two are in cahoots, aren’t you?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh, she just realized—of course these two bastards were obviously partners.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then it’s my turn. Oh, I forgot to mention.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You Xuan smiled brightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Torture Wheel has another effect, Senior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whenever a monster is bound by ‘Torture Wheel,’ its controller takes 500 damage during each of my Standby Phases.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiang Xinghua: “!!??”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What? How much damage?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Xiang Xinghua, LP 400】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiang Xinghua looked up in horror—the burning lump stared down at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For some reason, she thought she saw innocence in its hollow eyes, slowly offering her the spiked, spinning wheel as if to say—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t blame me. I really have no choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiang Xinghua collapsed onto the ground, screaming “Aaaah!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t come near me!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t get any closer, aaaaah!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spiked Torture Wheel rolled over her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Xiang Xinghua, LP 400 → LP 0】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1269,"2026-06-19T08:58:34.393Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","730c11702c5a2d5b253f95cba4e13d06312d590892d3e8df677045f78351b23e","who-let-him-play-yu-gi-oh-chapter-73","who-let-him-play-yu-gi-oh-chapter-71",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fwho-let-him-play-yu-gi-oh-cover.jpg"]
