Chapter 5 - Chapter 5: Three Rare Cards!

"The game is over? Even if you have a monster with 2800 attack, you won't defeat me in a single turn!" Hua Shao felt a wave of humiliation wash over him. Doing this in front of the gate of Emperor Academy, with tens of thousands of students watching, made the stakes much higher than just a villa. He couldn't afford to lose face like this.

"I told you, I'll let you experience the fun of Anki! Anki, attack Troposphere!" You Feng pointed a finger forward like a sword. Masked HERO Anki immediately leaped into the air, its claws tearing Troposphere apart on the spot!

-400 LP!

After a series of electronic beeps, Hua Shao's Life Points dropped to 6500!

"Ah!" Hua Shao screamed in pain once more.

The sound was so wretched that the onlookers couldn't help but shiver.

"I activate Anki's effect! When it destroys a monster in battle, I can add one Mask Change from my deck to my hand," You Feng said calmly. His fingers waited like a pair of shears for the card to pop out of the deck before he caught it firmly.

"Drilldark, attack the opponent directly!"

-1600 LP!

Another series of beeps followed. 4900 LP remaining!

"Aaah!!" Hua Shao was now down on one knee, his forehead drenched in cold sweat.

"Not bad. That scream is quite moving. Let's make it a little more intense! I activate the Quick-Play Spell Card: Mask Change!" You Feng flicked the card out, transforming Anki into another version of itself.

Another shredding strike!!

-2800 LP!

In an instant, accompanied by another scream, Hua Shao's health plummeted to 2100 LP!

"It's not over yet! From my hand, I activate the Quick-Play Spell Card: Form Change! By targeting one HERO Fusion Monster I control, I return it to the Extra Deck to Special Summon a Masked HERO monster from the Extra Deck with the same level but a different name, and this is treated as a Special Summon via Mask Change!"

As You Feng spoke, the audience stood rooted to the spot, mouths agape. Had he drawn a god hand?

This chain was simply too powerful. Even the Student Council President had never shown them such a combo!

"How is this possible... you... you!" Hua Shao staggered back a few steps, nearly collapsing onto the ground.

"I return Anki to the deck to Special Summon Masked HERO Dian from the Extra Deck!" You Feng stepped forward, his school uniform billowing behind him like a cape. His aura enveloped the entire field, radiating the presence of a sovereign.

A beam of light descended, piercing the darkness as a warrior clad in white armor dropped from the sky.

*Masked HERO Dian*

*Earth Attribute / Level 8 / Warrior-Type*

*ATK 2800 / DEF 3000*

"This means..." Zhao Mengmeng's mouth hung open as she covered it with both hands, her face filled with shock. This deck was terrifying it was easily on par with the President's!

Was this really You Feng?

"Dian, attack directly!" You Feng delivered the final blow. Dian raised its weapon and struck, sealing Hua Shao's fate.

"Aaaaaah"

With a heart-wrenching scream, Hua Shao collapsed completely onto the pavement.

Dead silence!

The gate of Emperor Academy was currently at peak after-school hours, yet it was as quiet as a grave despite the presence of tens of thousands of students.

You Feng retracted his deck and walked toward Hua Shao with a casual, airy stride. He reached down and pulled the other boy's deck straight out of his Duel Disk.

After glancing through it for a few seconds, he picked out three cards.

"A 'genius's' deck, yet there's hardly anything worth keeping. Oh well, I've made my choices. First, the Trap Card: Sakuretsu Armor!" You Feng flipped it over.

"That... that's my UR Card!" Hua Shao felt a stabbing pain in his chest, but in the world of dueling, one had to accept their losses or face even greater public scorn.

"Hmm? If I wasn't after your UR cards, what would I want? You think I'm interested in your body?" You Feng chuckled softly.

"Second, the Quick-Play Spell Card: Concentrating Current. This card doesn't suit you anyway."

"As for the third one, the only thing actually worth keeping... Monster Reborn!" As You Feng revealed the final card, Hua Shao looked like he wanted to die. A single copy of Monster Reborn was worth as much as a villa.

"My god! He's ruthless. Is this really that coward, You Feng?"

"Something is wrong. Where did he get a deck like that?"

"I... why do I feel like You Feng is actually kind of terrifying?"

Once You Feng finished picking the cards, Hua Shao reached out his hand, intending to take back the rest of his deck. He was already utterly broken and humiliated.

Clatter

You Feng simply tossed the deck back at him. The cards scattered into the air before raining down across the ground.

Hua Shao's eyes widened, his hands trembling violently.

"Wait! You Feng, you're going too far! You've already won, why would you do that?" Zhao Mengmeng rushed forward.

"I won, sure. But what if I had lost?" You Feng kept one hand in his pocket and gave her a cool, indifferent look. "I can guarantee he would have humiliated me a hundred times worse. Besides, since when do I need you to teach me how to handle my business?"

"Don't you just want a date with me? Fine, I'll give you a chance, but you have to apologize. You're being way too much," Zhao Mengmeng said.

"Hahaha..." You Feng reacted as if he had just heard the world's biggest joke.

*Author's Note:* At the start, the opponents' decks won't be too strong, so let's enjoy the easy wins first! Sometimes I get a bit confused while writing, so feel free to remind me and I'll make corrections. Everyone has been great; I'll keep updating. It won't be long before the "Original World" makes its appearance.
