Yu-Gi-Oh!, the Roar of the Weak

Chapter 354 The Hero Arrives

"What?" Lian Shi's expression froze for a moment, but then returned to its serious and gloomy state. "Hmph, whatever. Who told me to be the cursed one? Well, at least I used the Twin Dragon Sun Slash, I'm already satisfied."

"One pound of pears!" Di Xing pointed, and rousing music immediately followed.

"The name 'Twin Dragons Sun Slash' completely fails to capture the element of fire and is utterly unacceptable. It should be changed to 'Star Flash Flame Burst Slash'."

Lian Shi pulled out a table from somewhere, slammed both hands on it, and pointed at it, saying, "That's bullshit! Doesn't having 'sun' mean it represents the sun?"

"That's utter bullshit!" Di Xing slammed his hands on the table. "You're saying the Twin Dragons Sun Slash will make people think you've cut the sun in half!"

"That's bullshit! The sun is way more powerful than the stars, and my clapping was louder than yours."

"I took the picture faster than you."

Ai Xiao and the others couldn't help but facepalm.

"Hahaha!" Li Hai's hearty laughter rang out. "You two are quite interesting, but could you please move aside? This is the stage for heroes."

Di Xing and the other man made way for Li Hai.

Li Hai strode to the dueling arena, then suddenly remembered something and asked Li Qi, "Sister, can I use my own dueling disk?"

"No, we need the ones for the exam," he said, then handed over a very stylish-looking duel disk.

Li Hai put it in his hand, and the Duel Disk emitted a crisp "plete" sound before automatically unfolding.

"My turn, draw a card!" Upon seeing the card he drew, Li Hai revealed a hearty smile. "I activate the Spell Card 'Hero's Arrival'! If I have no face-up monsters on the field, I pay half of my Life Points to activate this effect. I Special Summon one Level 4 or lower Elemental HERO monster from my Deck, and I Special Summon 'Elemental HERO Sky Warrior'!"

"When Skybreaker successfully summons two monsters, you can choose one of two effects to activate. I choose to add one Elemental HERO monster from my Deck to my hand. The one I added is [Elemental HERO Neos]."

"OH!!!!!!!!! He actually has a Tenth Generation ace monster?" Di Xing exclaimed in astonishment.

"It's just a Spirit Gift Card. That card is very expensive; after all, it's the Savior's Card. He begged his dad for a long time before he finally got it for him," Ai Xiao said, rubbing her forehead.

Li Hai, unaware that he was being teased by his friend Ququ, continued loudly, "Then, a hero doesn't lay a hand on an unarmed person! I Special Summon [Thunder Emperor's Retainer Mitra] from my hand, and Summon a Retainer Token to your field."

"Then I sacrificed the Elemental Hero Skywalker and Mitra, a retainer of the Thunder Emperor, to summon the Elemental Hero Neos."

"Wash your socks! (Shoot!)" New Universe Warrior shouted, extending one fist forward in Ultraman's classic entrance.

Wow, is this what you'd expect from a hero deck user? A legendary four-for-one trade, paying homage to Jaden's iconic moment. Hmm, slightly better than Jaden's five-for-one trade.

The Neo-Ultraman, like Ultraman, looked down at the weak, derivative retainers opposite him.

"A hero doesn't bully the weak; a suitable opponent must be prepared for the hero. I'll release your retainer tokens to Special Summon [Multidimensional Monster Radion] to your field."

A distant cousin of the Baltan alien ninja has appeared! Looking at this powerful monster before him, Crybaby's mechanical mind is a bit blank; he shouldn't have anything on his field!

Neo-Ultraman and Radian are facing off across the field. Oh, is this Ultraman versus Baltan aliens?

"I'm using Neo-Universe to attack the multidimensional villain Radion!"

"What? Is he crazy? Xinyuxia's attack power is only 2500 points, but Radian's attack power is 2800 points!" The freshmen were all dumbfounded.

Neos Knight landed a punch on Radian, but it turned out to be just an illusion. Radian's real body then appeared behind Neos Knight and knocked the invincible Zoffy... oh no, Neos Knight to the ground with a single claw strike.

The blast wave from the explosion damaged Li Hai.

LP4000-2800+2500=3700

However, Li Hai became even more excited. "Heroes don't fall so easily! I activate the Quick-Play Spell [Soul-Suppressing Duel]. Both players can Special Summon one monster from their Graveyard that was destroyed by battle this turn in Attack Position. Revive, hero!"

Neos reappears, hands on hips, while countless burning and shattered buildings rise from the ground, resembling a city where Ultraman and monsters are battling.

"OH!!!!!!!!!!" Di Xing and Lian Shi exclaimed. They had somehow gotten their hands on movie glasses and popcorn, and were enjoying Li Hai's performance while munching on the popcorn.

"It's not over yet. I discard [Elemental HERO True Neos] from my hand, increasing the ATK of all my Neos on the field by 2500 until the end of this turn."

The new Yu Xia was enveloped in light, and huge wings sprouted from his back, increasing his attack power to 5000 points.

"Come on, I'll use Neo-Universe to attack your Dimensional Beast Radian!"

"At this moment, the Duel Effect of Soul Reaper is triggered! Its effect allows my Special Summoned Monster to have its ATK doubled during the Damage Step of the battle against your monster."

Neo-Ultraman's muscles bulged, and his body seemed to burn with light, transforming him into a giant of light! His attack power surged to its maximum.

"Go, Neocosmos, Spy...Stroheim Impact!"

"You were just thinking of the Specium Ray, weren't you?" Di Xing thought to himself. "Wait! Stroheim?" Di Xing's face flushed red instantly, and the image of Superman using a machine gun mounted on his crotch to unleash a devastating barrage flashed through his mind.

So, with a hint of anticipation, he looked towards the arena, only to see Xinyuxia get into position and instantly disappear from his spot! Then, an iron fist slammed heavily into Radian's face, smashing it to pieces!

"Huh?! He actually used his fists?!" Di Xing thought to himself, "However, it's unexpected enough, and watching those punches is quite stress-relieving. I'd give this movie an 8.1."

Di Xing and Lian Shi stood up and applauded, thinking to themselves: "We must befriend this guy so we can watch movies anytime, anywhere!"

“Li Hai, a freshman…” Li Qi calmly looked at her cousin, “7200 points, not 8000 points, you fail!”

"Huh? Sister Qi, you didn't say you had to get 8000 points!"

"How can you kill an enemy if you can't even hit 8000? You're useless. Don't tell anyone I'm your sister when you get out of here!"

Di Xing and the others were dumbfounded. Was this what they called a flurry of actions that turned out to be a 0-5 score?

Li Hai sighed helplessly. He knew it was pointless to reason with his older sister, who had always suppressed him. Well, at least he had some points.

"Next! Freshman Xian Yiji!"

Wearing large glasses, Xian Yiji smiled confidently. "My reasoning and calculations are perfect."

Then he put the Exam Duel Disk on his raised left hand.

“plete”

"My turn, draw! Normal Summon [Light Water Dragon]"
