Houston, Texas.

Located southwest of downtown, next to the Texas Medical Center, Herman Park is home to thousands of people. Most of them are students at local Houston elementary, middle and university levels, with more than two-thirds white and very few black Asian-Americans.

Peter was among them......

On a rare weekend vacation, he had made an appointment with Gwen to go to the Houston Zoo with him. But a phone call from Tony forced him to change his mind and run to Herman Park to bask in the sun with his bulky camera equipment.

There's an event today!

Hosted by the PD House Houston, the first "Duel City Houston" challenge will be held at 9 a.m. today at Herman Park in downtown.

The prize money is not high, and the champion is only 5,000 dollars.

The reason why everyone is so enthusiastic is mainly because of the "global limited" edition of the [Blue-Eyed Ultimate Dragon] gold-plated figure. Of course, the place in the "PD Carnival Exhibition Competition" is also the focus of everyone's competition.

Tony signed up for the event.

He is only 10 points short of being promoted to a [Master 1 Star] Duelist. According to the official announcement of PD, duelists with 1 star and above of the global master can receive a free admission ticket to the "8th Carnival" in the member center.

Round-trip carriage and horse fare, PD all-inclusive!

Sounds like a great perk, but it's a pity that the bar is too high.

It's only been a few months since the launch of the duelist level, and 99.99% of the world's duelists are still hovering in the deep pit of [beginner 1-5 stars] and [intermediate 1-5 stars], and only a few people have been promoted to [advanced] duelists with their powerful decks.

As for the Master Duelist?

That's too little!

According to the documents issued by the World Dueling Federation, after a duelist is upgraded to [Master 1 Star], the rule of 100 points will no longer be used. Rather, it is based on global rankings.

Global ranking 10,001-100,000, 1-4 stars for masters. 5001-10000 people, 1 star for Duel King!2001-5000 people, 2 stars for Duel King. The first two thousand are 3 stars for the Duel King, the first 1,000 are 4 stars, and the top 100 are the highest five-star Duel King!

It is said that the top 10 players will receive the [Yu-Gi-Oh· S1] Certificate of Honor and Trophy.

100,000 masters around the world, sounds like a lot?

However, this is the new season!

Not to mention 100,000 masters, there are only more than 1,000 people in the current global rankings. As long as Tony is promoted to master, according to the ranking mechanism, he will be upgraded to [3-star dueling king] at one time!

That's why he's so excited.

In order to record the moment when he was "the king of duels in seconds", he specially called his good brother Peter to record this great moment with a camera, so that he could show off to his grandchildren when he was old in the future.

After all, they were good brothers, and Peter couldn't refuse.

Even if it is a pigeon girl, she has to carry the camera to witness the happy moment when the good brother is promoted to the king of the duel.

"Tony is still strong!"

When Tony is mentioned, Peter is filled with admiration.

This good brother, although his academic performance is terrible. But in the area of eating, drinking, and playing with girls, he is definitely a talented god!

He used to play yo-yo and he was a professional player. Playing the PD League, he went from zero to the king in half a month. Playing in a four-wheel drive, he was just one step away from reaching the World Championships. When it is Yu-Gi-Oh cards, he can also become the king of dueling......

This talent, no one!

This game is an official tournament, and the bonus points for winning one game are high. Tony's missing 10 points can be made up for as long as he wins one game, up to two games.

For him, it's a trifle.

So far, there are more than 1,200 masters in the world. As long as you don't run into a master, Tony's carefully prepared deck will make it easy to win two rounds.

His deck is the "Protagonist" collocation.

Obsessed with animation, Tony gave himself a deck of the same game as the game. The core monsters are the Dark Wizard series, Exzodia Pieces, Chestnut Ball, Magnet Warrior αβγ, Dark Knight Gaia, and Chaos Warrior, among others.

In the animation, this set of cards can be described as strong enough to explode, and the game kills all sides.

But in reality, the results of this deck are really not as good as they could be. Fortunately, Tony spent a lot of money to get a Chaos Warrior's vest card [Chaos Warrior - Pioneer Messenger], and replaced a batch of mortal bone monsters with Chaos cards, which gave him a certain amount of combat effectiveness.

It can only be said that it is really good to be rich!

The Chaos Pioneer is a card with powerful effects and simple summoning, and is loved by many duelists. It's a pity that the encapsulation rate of this card is too low, and the probability of drawing it is no less than that of a lottery ticket.

Tony can't pump it either......

So, he chose banknotes to open the way!

"Tony, I've heard people say ......"

While Tony was sorting out the deck to prepare for the tournament, Peter hesitated, "The Duel League is considering putting the Chaos Pioneer on the banned list. ”

"Who dares to ban it?"

Tony raised an eyebrow and said, "This is a card I got for $10,000, why should I be forbidden to use it? If it is really banned, then I will sue them and demand compensation!"

"It's useless, is it?"

Peter sighed, "The Duel League has banned so many cards, and it's not once or twice that they've been prosecuted. But you see, they haven't changed their minds!"

It's true!

Since Meng Lang came up with the "Banned Card List" and "Restricted Card List", European and American consumers who advocate freedom always feel that Black Pig has violated their "right to freedom of play", and they have sued and applied for compensation.

It's a pity that I didn't win once!

As we all know, the user license of the PD comes with relevant provisions, and the lawsuit against the PD must be accepted by the Jiangchuan Court, that is, the location of the defendant. Once you go to Jiangchuan to sue, who can win Jiangchuan Pizza Hut?

Young man, don't go up!

Tony was just saying a few angry words, and he admitted that Peter's concerns were right. The Chaos Pioneer may be banned next season, and he must think about the back path and find a suitable replacement.

The problem is, there are no suitable cards!

Cards with powerful effects are basically all in the forbidden card catalog. The rest of the cards, Tony didn't like very much......

"Forget it, wait for the new card. ”

Tony pondered: "According to Uncle Meng's urine, the carnival should issue new cards, right? I don't know what the effect of the new cards is, can they replace the Chaos Warriors......"

"It should be possible...... Wait!"

Before Peter could finish his sentence, he suddenly remembered a rumor from distant China.

It seems to be some kind of three phantom gods?!

Named "Phantom God", the effect must be very perverted, right? If that's the case, then Tony doesn't have to worry about the Chaos Warrior being banned.

So, he told Tony about the rumors.

"Three Phantom Gods?"

Tony touched his chin and said, "It's a bit interesting! It seems that I have to bring more money to Jiangchuan this time." Three Phantom Gods, I'm sure I'm going to get my hands on it!"

"Good luck!"

Peter's smile stiffened, and he couldn't help but mourn for Tony.

The Three Illusion Gods, which are very powerful just by hearing the name, must have an extremely touching packaging rate. Whether Tony is gacha packs or trading with other people, the money spent is never a small amount.

When I come back......

Uncle Howard is probably going to go berserk, right?
