With the order of the referee Isono, the grouping process ended here. The lifts under all the contestants started at the same time, and they bounced toward the top of the tower with a swoosh.

After a while, the four of them came to the top of the dueling tower one after another.

This was the same as the schedule in the animation. From the grouping process to the first game of the semi-finals, there was not much rest time, and the players in the first game only had about ten minutes to adjust.

Players could choose to use these ten minutes to make the final deck tactical adjustment according to the opponent they would face, or they could choose to interact “friendly” with the opponent’s players, greet each other’s family members or something, and warm up for the upcoming duel.

As for the deck, Yuei Vu has already adjusted it a long time ago, and now he just needed to check it for the last time. Because of the understanding of the anime plot, Yuei Vu already knew that Kaiba would use the Battle Royal method to decide the opponent. Naturally, it was easy to predict that his opponent in the first battle would be Marik, so the deck was adjusted a long time ago.

As the so-called “high risk, high return”, although if he lost against Marik, there was a risk of being consumed by the Shadow Game, from the perspective of promotion, among the top four he would have a slightly greater chance of advancing when fighting against Marik.

In the animation, Marik’s arrogance was all based on out-of-the-table tricks. The effect of The Winged Dragon of Ra was awesome, and the key was that no one except him knew the specific effect.

However, this problem did not exist for Yuei Vu, as he knew exactly what effects The Winged Dragon has.

Strictly speaking, Marik didn’t win against Mai and Jonouchi in the anime. Yuei Vu felt that he has a good chance.

At this moment, the onlookers also came from the passenger elevator to the top of the tower. Jonouchi and a group of friends came up and started shouting, “Come on, Yuei Vu!”

Sister Shizuka blushed: “Yuei Vu, come on~”

However, none of them did as hard as Snow Wave and Miss Yuehua: “Yuei Vu! Use your invincible Elemental HERO to kill that pervert!”

It seemed that suddenly everyone has become a fan of Yuei Vu and a cheerleader, in stark contrast to the lonely six-year-old standing across from him with his arms crossed.

Even Marik’s own sister cheered for his opponent.

At this moment, Ishizu also came to the top of the tower and solemnly bowed to Yuei Vu: “My brother Marik… Please. Please eliminate the evil thoughts in his heart.”

Yuei Vu nodded: “Well, I will try my best.”

President Kaiba, of course, would not express his dissent as clearly as others. However, he stood aside with his arms crossed, and pretended to casually remind: “‘The Winged Dragon of Ra’s abilities are far beyond your imagination.

Take it easy. After winning Yugi, my next target is you. I’ll be waiting for you in the final, don’t let me down. ”

There was a reason for the president to remind him so. After all, he was the man who interpreted the effect of The Winged Dragon of Ra on Marik’s Duel Disk through satellite aerial photography…

What? You said he was cheating by peeping?

He was the organizer of the competition… Could that be called cheating?

If you didn’t believe me, ask the referee on the stage to see whether or not this was cheating.

Then Isono might say: This competition adopted the special duel rules of Kaiba Corp! Peeping Duel Disk with satellites… did not count as cheating! (if you can afford to buy satellites)

The lonely six-year-old stood in front of everyone by himself, holding a Millennium Rod and cradling his arms, laughing.

To be honest, he didn’t take Yuei Vu to heart at all.

Although the six-year-old was not good at playing cards, he was very addicted to cards, and he was inexplicably confident that he was very good at it.

He felt that Ghouls had suffered many losses in Yuei Vu’s hand until now entirely because his main personality was too naive. His current mentality was a bit like an audience who was watching the whole process and feel that “if it was me, it would do better.”

After all, from his point of view, Yuei Vu has no Millennium Items or background, and he was not the reincarnation of a big boss, but a mere mortal.

Facing him, wasn’t it a one-sided massacre?

“The first game of the semi-finals,” the referee Isono, who was used to seeing big scenes, waved his hand, “Player Yuei Vu vs. Player Marik, start!”

【Yuei Vu, LP 4000】

【Marik, LP 4000】

“I’m the one who goes first, draw!” The duel started from Marik’s side.

Player Marik came up to perform a wave of face art, and then laughed vainly for a while, and without a word, took out a Millennium Rod from the four-dimensional asshole.

“Come on! The Shadow Game of betting on both sides’ lives has begun! Hahahaha!”

The darkness was released, and the pitch-black field instantly swept the audience, enveloping the two people in the battle and the entire field.

The powerful force hit immediately, and the pressure was so overwhelming. The field surrounds like a sphere, and there seem to be countless ghosts traveling back and forth in the surrounding darkness.

“Master!”

The Dark Magician Girl appeared in time to relieve Yuei Vu’s pressure.

At the same time, Yuei Vu can also feel another power released from the deck in his hand – a power even stronger than Dark Magician Girl, like forming an invisible force field to protect him in the center.

There was no doubt that the Sky Dragon in his deck was also protecting him.

This was also one of the reliances on which Yuei Vu dared to accept the challenge of Marik’s Shadow Game.

As long as there were means to check and balance the opponent’s off-board moves, he had confidence in playing cards.

“Hey, you’ll soon know what’s the use of this.”

Marik said and took out a card, licked the back of it with his tongue, and said, “This guy is what I’m going to summon this turn – Vampiric Leech!” (anime card)

A huge maggot with a disgusting shape and constant squirming appeared on Marik’s field, and the red tentacles around it kept flapping.

[Vampiric Leech, ATK 500]

“Hey, Vampiric Leech has the special effect that allows it to attack in the first turn.” Marik’s eyes turned white, and he waved his arms, “Go, Vampiric Leech! Directly attack Yuei Vu!”

The Vampiric Leech flew out, and its sharp teeth bit Yuei Vu’s arm.

Although it was only a mere 500 points of damage, the intense pain still struck violently. A tingling shock to the scalp, and a brief loss of sensation in the arm. Yuei Vu felt his feet stumble, and his breathing in his chest was interrupted for a moment.

【Yuei Vu, LP 4000 → LP 3500】

It should be said that it was indeed the power of the Millennium Items. Although Yami Marik was not good at playing cards, his dark power level was much more powerful than an average Shadow Duelist.

“Hahahaha! Pay attention to your own right hand!”

Yuei Vu turned his head to the side, and a small part of his arm… disappeared out of thin air!

Although it did not affect the movement of the hand at all, it really looked like the arm has been cut off from his body.

“Hey, the rule of this Shadow Game is that if you get LP damage in this game, part of your body will be swallowed by darkness.” Marik sneered, “People whose LP is zero will be buried by darkness from head to toe. There is no bone left.”

Yuei Vu was mentally prepared, but his spirit partner was a little frightened.

“Master…Master…” The Dark Magician Girl looked worried.

“It’s okay.” Yuei Vu waved his hand and turned to Marik, “Okay, stop talking nonsense, are you done?”

“Humph.”

Marik was a little unhappy that his intimidation didn’t have the desired effect – he had hoped that Yuei Vu would piss directly when he saw this scene.

But he has more opportunities.

“I set a card. Then at the End Phase, activate the follow-up effect of ‘Vampiric Leech’. This card can be changed to Defense Position by discarding a card from my hand.”

Marik discarded a card from his hand, and the disgusting maggot on the field crouched down and turned from offense to defense.

[Vampiric Leech, DEF 1200]

Yuei Vu looked at the card Marik threw into the Graveyard and narrowed his eyes.

In the animation, Yami Marik’s tactics were completely different from those of the main personality. He did not intend to gather three sacrifices to summon The Winged Dragon of Ra at all, but always tried to throw The Winged Dragon of Ra to GY first, and then used “Monster Reborn” to pull it back from the Graveyard to make an OTK.

Therefore, there was a high probability that the card he threw in the Graveyard just now was “The Winged Dragon of Ra”.

“Okay, I end my turn.” Marik lowered his arms. “Come on, it’s your turn. Try to please me, hehehe…”

Then he took out the Millennium Rod and licked it with his tongue.

Yuei Vu couldn’t help but think: This guy sticks his tongue out and licks everywhere, is he really not afraid of licking something that shouldn’t be licked one day…
