Dancing with the Rising Sun

Chapter 497 - 364: Summoning Spirit Card Master VS Beast Taming Card Master, The "Shadow Duel" Reappears! (Seeking monthly passes at the beginning of the month)_2


To say that one does not envy is certainly impossible.


After all, with the help of various Skill Cards, Li Chengyi is strong in both attack and defense.


And the only weakness lies in Star Power.


Star Power is insufficient.


This is a weakness all Skill Card Masters have.


The difference is that Skill Card Masters with single or dual attributes may not have many cards in their hands, so with some Star Power recovery cards, they can just manage to make ends meet.


Further strength improvement later on makes this even easier.


However, for a full attribute Skill Card Master, it is different.


If there are not five or six cards that can significantly restore Star Power in use at the same time, then the Star Power is absolutely impossible to manage.


For single-attribute and dual-attribute Skill Card Masters, after the improvement of their strength, things will be a lot easier.


But for full-attribute Skill Card Masters, the higher their strength increases, the more Star Power consumed and the less sufficient it becomes.


As a full attribute Skill Card Master, with a vast variety of cards, there is no need to worry about skill cooldowns.


Often a round of skills has not been fully released, and the first skill used has already cooled down.


Of course, that's if Star Power is sufficient.


His current problem lies in the insufficient Star Power, having to carry Star Power recovery cards and also calculate Star Power usage.


It is indeed very difficult.


"If Jiang Yuan has effective Star Power recovery cards in hand, when he makes his breakthrough later on, his traits can change, possibly allowing him to recover Star Power faster."


Li Chengyi watched Jiang Yuan on the field and sighed, "However, he is about to breakthrough, this matter cannot be delayed any longer."


"We'll find him after the battle ends."


Ye Jinhuan smiled, not seeming to care much, and looked up towards the field, "I suppose he won't refuse, after all, he does sell cards, doesn't he?"


"Mm."


Li Chengyi nodded, then began to watch the battle seriously.


On the field, after Nezha threw the Qiankun Ring, Huang Huanqing's Purple Quality Cards started to shimmer.


A total of six Purple Quality Cards.


Apart from the five Beast Taming Cards, there was also a Skill Card.


Mechanical Crow, Shadow Fire Weasel, Three-Patterned Magic Wolf, Diamond Octopus, and the final Decayed Wood Sorcerer.


Five Guardian Beasts, five types of abilities.


However, why does the first Purple Quality Card Huang Huanqing uses look somewhat familiar?


Jiang Yuan slightly tilted his head, and the next second, I saw the Qiankun Ring passing through Huang Huanqing's body, crashing on the ground.


"Shadow Duel!"


The moment Jiang Yuan saw this scene, he instantly understood which card Huang Huanqing was using.


[Shadow Duel], this was the card used by a player he forgot the name of during his fourth year when challenging the rankings.


If not mistaken, that guy seemed to have been defeated by the [Fiery Flame Formation], right?


"Do you really think I lack combat abilities?"


Jiang Yuan chuckled, although his combat ability was far too inferior compared to Nezha and Zhao Gongming.


But he still had some combat abilities.


Such as the Five Elements Magic and Thunder Skill.


Additionally, several Array Cards within the Ten Extremes Formation.


Under such circumstances, dealing with a Beast Taming Card Master is a piece of cake.


However...


Huang Huanqing, seeing Jiang Yuan's confident demeanor, also had a slight smile on his face.


"I am not as foolish as that guy, to boldly break through right in front of you."


Huang Huanqing spoke softly. She had watched all of Jiang Yuan's battle videos.


Of course, only those that were publicly available, which she found directly on the Zhongyuan Academy official website.


Of those that interested her, and were quite fitting for her situation, this card was undoubtedly it.


So she did not hesitate to find someone to get the card, and then purchased it.


Of course, the purchase of this card happened just as the joint examination's ranking tournament had just begun.


The initial purpose was to prevent Jiang Yuan from instantly killing her in the opening.


She had thought that she would encounter him during the previous battles, but as it turned out, they met in the finals.


But this was also good; in this manner, the value of purchasing this card was maximized.


"Damn it, I should have thought that person bought this card to target Jiang Yuan!"


Liu Xiaofei angrily hammered the armrest in the audience stand, speaking discontentedly.


The one who came to buy this card from him was an unknown person, said to be purchasing it to counter Huang Huanqing.


Indeed, it was the guy currently battling with their Academy's Jiang Yuan on the field!


Holding the belief that even if he himself could not participate in the final ranking matches, he still wanted to give the other side a hard time, he made another such card and sold it.


After all, the effects of using this card against a Beast Taming Card Master were also quite significant.


Unexpectedly, the buyer of this card turned out to be Huang Huanqing!


And it was even used against one of their own!


Liu Xiaofei was somewhat vexed; if they lost this battle, wouldn't he become the biggest sinner?


What difference was there between this and aiding the enemy?


But Jiang Yuan should be fine, right?


Liu Xiaofei thought somewhat weakly.


After all, originally Jiang Yuan had beaten him, a player with later phase Jianglu strength, relying on his early phase Jianglu power.


And it was under the influence of the effects of this card that he was beaten, too.


It should be noted that he is an assassin card master with absurdly high attack power, while Huang Huanqing was just a Beast Taming Card Master with not many attack methods either.


"It should be okay, right?"


Liu Xiaofei prayed inwardly, lifting his head to look at the arena.


In the field, Nezha, Zhao Gongming, and Shi Ji, along with the Undead Enslavement summoned by Shi Ji, were continuously attacking Huang Huanqing's guardian beasts.


In the sky, Nezha and the Mechanical Crow were frantically unleashing various attacks at each other.


Although Nezha's attack power was somewhat stronger, the Mechanical Crow's was not weak either.


Even if it couldn't match Nezha's speed, its agility was somewhat better.


For a time, Nezha actually couldn't do much about him.


Below the arena, Shi Ji, Zhao Gongming, and the Undead Enslavement were also launching attacks against their foes.


However, Huang Huanqing's quartet of guardian beasts coordinated very tacitly; under Huang Huanqing's command, the Diamond Octopus appeared in front of the three guardian beasts, effortlessly blocking off Shi Ji and Zhao Gongming's skill attacks, then formed an Energy Shield, blocking the attacks from the Undead Enslavement.


The Wood Technique Summoner continuously released dark and wood attribute skill attacks, attempting to restrict Shi Ji and Zhao Gongming.


But faced with tangible restrictions of wooden attributes such as vines and branches, it merely took a whip of Zhao Gongming's steel whip to completely destroy them.


And facing dark attribute restraining skills, Shi Ji was not at all flustered—who isn't familiar with my dark attribute?


He raised his hand, and a series of black energy rings appeared, blocking the Three-Patterned Magic Wolf's attacks while also repelling the Wood Technique Summoner's restricting skills.


The Shadow Fire Weasel lay hidden in the shadows, biding its time, and in the blink of an eye wiped out the Undead Clan's archers completely.


Seeing this, Shi Ji didn't hesitate; as he raised his hand, the Undead Amplification Card Master instantly exploded.


[Life Gift] was released, and a terrifying enhancement was instantly poured over Nezha.


Nezha drew his bow and let loose an arrow; the second arrow directly penetrated the Mechanical Crow's Energy Shield and struck its body.


However, unexpectedly, the second arrow of the Sky Shattering Arrow was actually deflected by the Mechanical Crow's defense?


Jiang Yuan looked up towards Huang Huanqing, knowing the problem lay with the Purple Quality Card Huang Huanqing had just used.


"I can't let her keep interfering with the battle outside."


Jiang Yuan made up his mind, and a Purple Quality Card suddenly appeared in his hand.


But Huang Huanqing, after just one glance at Jiang Yuan, continued to turn her head and command the Mechanical Crow.


What Jiang Yuan had was supposedly a Scene Card which had a range limit, and couldn't be moved; as long as she didn't actively enter it, there wouldn't be any problem.


Just now, the card she used was Defense Swap.


It switched the defense of the Mechanical Crow and the Diamond Octopus, enabling it to block the attack from the Sky Shattering Arrow.


But now, the defensive power of the now-weakened Diamond Octopus is relatively low, however, protected by the Energy Shield unleashed from the recently absorbed energy, there won't be any problems for the time being.


In Huang Huanqing's eyes, as long as they resolve Nezha first, Jiang Yuan's combat power could be directly halved!


Even if her Diamond Octopus falls first, trading one for one with Nezha, the Diamond Octopus wouldn't be at a loss.


Unfortunately, she overlooked one thing.


Jiang Yuan wasn't without combat ability.


"Five Thunders Technique, Palm Thunder!"


Purple light flashed, and in the next second, a burst of thunder emerged from Jiang Yuan's palm, striking towards Huang Huanqing.
