"Lin You, it's Lin You who went up!"
I don’t know who shouted excitedly first, but then it seemed like a chain reaction was triggered.
The 17th freshman class was instantly excited!
Some people even started cheering.
"It's really Lin You, haha, just waiting for Lin You to 'kill like crazy'!"
"I haven't seen him here for quite a while. Was he in seclusion before? After such a long period of seclusion, shouldn't it be a problem for him to move up 20 or 30 places this time?"
"20th or 30th place is a bit exaggerated, but it's not impossible. Maybe I can really get it. Without saying more, it's safe to say that I can get into the top ten."
While cheering, the freshmen were guessing what kind of results Lin You would achieve this time and how many places he would move up.
They were obviously confident in Lin You.
The estimated ranking is not low at all.
But no one refuted it.
Even the old students couldn't say anything.
Can Lin You steadily move up a dozen places on the list?
It seems to be possible.
Originally, the opponent in the last challenge was Zhao Hongyu, who was ranked 170th on the list.
This ranking is not low, but what is the result?
They won the victory directly and decisively, with a clear advantage.
Just this performance, this talent.
More than a month has passed. Will it be difficult to kill another dozen people?
No difficulty!
I'll beat you without any negotiation!
A few old actors don't know much about Lin You.
Someone couldn't help but look at the people around them and asked, "Who is that guy? He looks quite famous."
The senior student who was asked looked at him in surprise, but still said, "That's Lin You, this year's rising star."
"newborn?"
This time it was the person asking the question who was surprised. "Brother, what's going on?"
Didn’t you see how enthusiastic the response was?
If you didn’t know, you might think it was some idol duelist visiting.
And you tell me that this is a freshman?
So what if he’s the Rookie of the Year?
Which year has no Rookie of the Year?
Jiangcheng universities produce many talented students, and this is the case every year.
Even if someone stands out and is elected as the Rookie of the Year, it stands to reason that it is not easy to convince the public, let alone the scene of attracting so many fans!
Even though Zeng Xi appeared earlier, he also caused quite a reaction among the freshmen.
But that is nothing compared to this!
You've already reserved a spot before even starting the challenge?
"I'm not kidding you."
The old student who was being questioned smiled bitterly and said, "That's the situation. I don't want to explain more. I'm tired of talking too much. You can read it yourself later and you will probably understand."
Is it so mysterious?
The man was stunned, and at this time, Lin You had already entered, and he couldn't help but pay more attention.
I want to see what’s the difference between this year’s Rookie of the Year and previous years?
I was thinking to myself, Chen Yi didn’t cause such a big fuss last year!
Could that guy be more talented than Chen Yi?
now.
On the field.
The senior with a high hairline was also wondering.
Who is this person?
It looks like a big list, top ten?
While he was still confused, Lin You said with a smile, "Senior, I want to challenge Senior Gao Shan, who is ranked 140th on the list. Thank you for your help."
140 digits?
The senior with a high hairline was even more confused, but he didn't think much about it. He nodded and quickly conveyed the message.
It was still the familiar dog-headed monster.
It seems that this monster is not privately owned by the senior with scar from last time, but is exclusively owned by the notary here.
Of course, it may not be the same one.
When the dog-headed man appeared, he shot decisively.
Bang!
The bullet cut through the air and exploded in the air like fireworks.
A number appears.
140!
The appearance of this number caused another uproar.
A freshman immediately exclaimed, "Holy crap! If I'm not confused, Lin You should be number 170 on the list right now. If he challenges number 140, wouldn't that mean he's directly at the top of the rankings?!"
Pulling the maximum rank is the maximum challenge limit,
Those on the list can only challenge opponents whose ranking does not exceed 30 of their own.
Lin You, who is ranked 170th on the list, can choose Gao Shan, who is ranked 140th, as his strongest opponent.
In this case, the meaning behind this challenge is not simple!
You know, a challenger will usually only adopt this kind of challenge when he has absolute confidence in his own strength.
The meaning is very straightforward.
This ranking is really not good enough, there is no other way, I have to choose an acceptable one.
At least we can rush to the top of the list faster.
The ranking is full!
Even though some people had guessed that Lin You would make this choice before, when they really saw him make such a choice, they still couldn't help but sigh.
So tough!
If they can really take it down, their strength would be truly terrifying.
Still a newcomer!
Even Guangmu and Qiu Shui, the two rookie kings who graduated from prestigious universities, are currently trying to rank around 170th, which is their limit.
Senior Gaoshan was also present.
It was a bit unexpected to be called into the game now.
His eyes couldn't help but fall on Lin You who entered first.
With a little solemnity.
Lin You's name is now quite famous, at least among the first and second year students.
Many people have heard of it, and Gao Shan is no exception.
But I have never witnessed Lin You’s duel in person.
However, I also learned a lot of information related to it from other people and some hot posts on the forum.
I have some understanding of his strength.
Super black star fusion monster!
So scary!
He actually has such an ace in his hand.
However, at present, it is not possible to develop corresponding tactics around that trump card.
Magic won't allow it.
The monster itself has a limited intensity of training.
Even if the opponent's fusion monster is also not at the duel level, it would be difficult to gain an advantage in a head-on confrontation.
But there is still a chance to win.
Maybe not small!
But this "not small" is based on the battle against Lin You who appeared in the last challenge day.
Gao Shan's understanding of him stopped there.
In the past month or so, Lin You seemed to be in seclusion and had not appeared in the New Star Duel Arena again.
Now that he appears again, who knows how much he has improved.
That's a super genius!
With steady steps and a solemn mood, Gao Shan also went up to the stage under everyone's gaze.
Some cheers and encouragement were heard.
It comes from some second-year students, but the voices are relatively soft and don't sound very confident.
Although before the challenge began, few old students believed that Lin You would choose the one with the highest ranking to challenge.
But when he really made the choice, no one thought he was arrogant.
On the contrary, I feel that Gao Shan probably has no chance of success.
The maximum ranking challenge is very difficult, but it also requires points.
To this guy Lin You?
Forget it.
…
For a while.
The atmosphere in the stands became very subtle. Not only were the freshmen unanimously optimistic about Lin You, but even the sophomores did not have high expectations for Gao Shan.
Gao Shan, who ranked 140th on the list, turned out to be the underdog!
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the two of them kept a proper distance, ready to fight and waiting.
"The duel begins!"
The senior with a high hairline who was in charge of acting as notary spread the word and quickly announced the start of the duel.
Hearing the sound, the two people in the field attacked at the same time, forming a soul connection in an instant.
No drag at all.
Lin You directly activated the fusion, and a blue-purple vortex emerged.
The Beast King and Baphomet, the fusion materials, were involved.
On the other side, Gaoshan summoned a white star monster first.
With his ability, he might be able to drive a super-black star-level monster, but to activate it, he also needs a sacrifice.
However, if you want to perform a higher-level summon, you still need to wait for the summoning interval to pass if you do not rely on the special effects of some cards to speed up or even skip the process.
The summoning interval of thirty seconds is hard to ignore!
If the process cannot be accelerated, we need to rely on various methods to delay it and buy time.
Gao Shan knows this kind of thing very well.
After that monster is summoned, an effect is activated immediately.
It's not a magic trap, but a monster effect!
The monster closed its eyes and was surrounded by a ball of red light.
Bang!
There was a sound of breaking.
He actually sacrificed himself!
The special effect of the sacrifice beast is activated!
Destroy this card on the field, then banish this card in the Graveyard to perform a valid Advanced Summon.
To be effective, it must be a high-level monster that requires a sacrifice.
Whether it is a Black Star or a Super Black Star monster, the required sacrifice is only 1!
With this effect, Gao Shan can directly skip the summoning interval and summon his ace monster.
But it was at this moment.
Whoosh, whoosh!
Several pitch-black chains broke through the air and quickly pierced into Gao Shan's soul barrier.
"What's this?"
Gao Shan subconsciously wanted to dodge away, but failed to get rid of it. Looking at the chains that were inserted in him, he felt uneasy.
But this did not affect his movements.
No matter what, it’s better to play your trump card first!
With this thought in mind, he drove his magic power and was about to activate the card when his eyes suddenly changed!
He looked flustered.
The students in the stands were also a little surprised.
What is this doing?
He sacrificed his own monster, and now he's just standing there like an idiot?
I don't understand.
They didn't understand, and Gao Shan in the field was even more confused.
For some reason, he suddenly couldn't drive his magic power to connect with the cards normally, as if those cards were suddenly frozen.
He couldn't help but look up at the dark chains rooted in front of the soul barrier.
Is it because of these chains?
But there is no reason. How can such a card directly seal one's ability to drive cards!
"roar!"
While I was still panicking about these things, a roar that echoed throughout the entire venue was heard.
Accompanying it was a violently sweeping dark aura.
The powerful aura of a super dark-level monster!
The winged mythical beast Chimera!
Gao Shan became even more panicked and even tried to use his hands to peel off the chains that were piercing his soul barrier.
But this is obviously wishful thinking.
Chimera didn't care what he thought. It flapped its wings and rushed to the other party at the fastest speed.
The effect of the seal takes effect.
This is perfect timing.
Previously in the Mutated Cave, the Seal was directly invalidated by the Dark Duelist with a Trap Card, which made Lin You depressed for a while.
Such a powerful card can play its role smoothly and its impact on the battle situation is really huge!
Lin You was very clear about this.
It’s just right. I’ll use it right now and the effect is quite outstanding.
This was also the first time he used the Seal of Engraving in this venue.
I wanted to use it before, but I didn't have enough magic power.
After fusing with Chimera, there is basically no backup plan.
The only way to activate other cards is to rely on the Swift Mole and restore 50 magic points first. There is still hope.
But now, the magic power has increased a lot.
Even if it is fused first, it can still fully support the activation of other cards.
With the linkage of cards, the combat power is also greatly increased!
After all, a duel is not something that can be decided by a single trump card.
Bang!
The soul barrier fluctuated violently, and it was Chimera who rushed to the front of the mountain and took action.
The completely empty mountain looked no different from a toy in front of the huge Chimera.
He felt like crying but had no tears.
Damn it, I'm not going to perform a higher-level summon, so I can just use a trap card to 'save my life', right?
Unfortunately, no!
Really no card works.
This ban was clearly given to him!
Bang!
Another claw was swung out, carrying with it several wind blades, which crashed into the soul barrier in front of Gao Shan.
There is no suspense at all.
The barrier shattered.
Gao Shan fell to the ground with a thud.
This was not an attack. The duel arena helped him absorb the excess impact, and Gaoshan himself would not be injured because of the loss of the duel.
He fell out simply because he didn't stand firmly and was always panicking.
He tried his best to pull out the chains that were stuck in front of him.
The noise of this fall was particularly obvious.
Nothing else.
The scene at this moment was so quiet that it was a little scary.
Many people had dazed expressions on their faces, some unable to speak.
Even the gunshot that declared Lin You's victory had not yet been heard.
The senior with a high hairline was also a little confused.
What is this?
Shouldn't the duel have just begun?
Why did it end?
It seems like it took less than ten seconds?
Are you sure this is a duel and not just a stunt?
Are you kidding me!
"Senior, are you okay?"
While collecting the cards, Lin You trotted to Gao Shan, feeling a little embarrassed.
This senior was fine, how could he fall down on the ground?
I'm not afraid of being criticized for being unprofessional when I go out to scam people.
Gao Shan, who had stood up again with his support, managed to regain his composure. He looked at him with a complicated expression, and after a moment's hesitation, he couldn't help but ask, "Could you please tell me about that move you made just now? It's so hard to explain how you died."
"Why is that inconvenient?"
Lin You also smiled. The effect of the seal was not a secret. They were all students from the same school, so it was okay to tell each other about it.
Besides, anyone with a discerning eye can actually see the effect of this card with a little analysis.
After all, there are other cards with similar effects in this world.
The seal of engraving is not as unsolvable as imagined.
There are actually quite a few countermeasures.
But for now, it is really difficult for these students ranked in the bottom 100 to fight back.
Even if you know the effect of this card, it is still difficult to deal with it.
It’s quite a headache!
At that moment, I simply told the other party about the effect.
Confusion dispelled, Gao Shan first thanked him, then said with some emotion, "Junior Lin You, I've heard of your reputation for a long time. You were the 17th Super Rookie of the Year. I used to think it was a bit exaggerated, but after meeting you today, I can only say that your reputation is well-deserved!"
"Senior, you are too polite."
Lin You smiled modestly, but he was not a particularly modest person.
But in his eyes, this battle was really nothing to brag about.
Victory is already in our grasp.
I won, isn't that normal?
When I defeat Chen Yi one day, I can consider showing off.
Of course, it’s still quite far away now.
I've heard before that the guy has already passed the apprentice stage and officially become a one-star duelist.
The total amount of magic power is over 1,000 points.
In addition, the opponent is a rookie king-level genius of the 16th session, so his progress should be rapid.
If we really want to catch up, it will probably be a bit difficult.
It would be worth mentioning if we surpass him in our freshman year.
This is what Lin You was thinking about.
If his idea were to be known by outsiders, it would probably cause another uproar.
Bang!
Suddenly, a gunshot rang out into the air.
The senior with a high hairline finally reacted and quickly asked the dog-headed man to shoot.
The gunshot interrupted the thoughts of many people, and the stands gradually became boiling.
"Holy crap, is this true? It only took a few seconds, and Lin You already won?"
"Outrageous, outrageous, out of this world, is this really a blitzkrieg?"
"Did anyone understand how they won? Why did that second-year Gao Shan suddenly become like an idiot, almost giving up resistance?"
"I couldn't see it clearly, it happened too fast, but just now, if I wasn't dazzled, Gao Shan's soul barrier seemed to have been broken."
"Yes, I saw it too. It's visible. There are a few black chains stuck on it. It must be a special effect of some card."
"I agree. What else could it be? Is it a match-fixing? With a notary public here, that's impossible. Besides, with Lin You's strength, does he need to rely on match-fixing to win?"
"Indeed, his strength is beyond reproach, but isn't it a bit too overwhelming? Destroying a mountain in a few seconds is like telling a story!"
“…”
The freshmen in the stands were discussing enthusiastically and were extremely excited.
The second-year students had complicated expressions.
I don’t know whether to be happy or depressed.
Some older students who had never met Lin You before or had limited knowledge of him were still confused.
Who is this person?
newborn?
Bullshit!
Can your freshman defeat a mountain with over 400 magic points in ten seconds?
This guy is almost like a repeater!
Of course, this is just talk to help digest the shock in my heart.
Everyone knows that freshmen in Jiangcheng universities cannot repeat a grade.
But if it is not explained in this way, it is really hard to understand.
Can't understand!
How can a freshman be so strong?
As for joy.
There is no need to elaborate on this.
As for the exchange competition in March next year, if Lin You can still perform well in that competition, it will bring honor and fame to the entire Jiangcheng University!
Thinking about it, I couldn't help feeling a little jealous.
Why isn’t this talented person from the 16th class?
It’s okay to switch bags with Chen Yi!
What's more, when such a thought flashed through his mind, he didn't know whether Chen Yi would pick him up and beat him up if he knew about it.
There was constant discussion in the stands.
Lin You did not leave immediately.
"My fellow student, do you have any other challenges?"
The senior with a high hairline looked at him and added a challenge. This was also possible, but it had to come after him.
Lin You himself also needs to restore his magic power.
If you want to challenge again after winning, you can get a bottle of 'magic recovery product' to help you recover during the recovery period.
Receive different recovery items according to different levels.
The drug takes effect for one hour.
This type of magic recovery product is also more stable and safer to digest.
"Yes, next, I'd like to trouble the senior ranked 110 on the list."
Lin You smiled and answered straightforwardly.
