Let them print cards, not slay gods 146

Chapter 146: The Blue Seal Gravekeeper

Yuan Youxin glanced at Shen Sui, then at the Sinful Saint Anna that Shen Sui had sent to the graveyard.

“Isn’t this a bit excessive?” Yuan Youxin looked at Shen Sui speechlessly.

“No way, that’s how hand traps work,” Shen Sui shrugged, feigning helplessness.

Yuan Youxin’s magic cards were rendered useless by Anna’s effect.

This was actually fine; without this card, he still had other means to unfold in his hand.

But since this Anna was in the graveyard, as long as he continued to unfold, he would be continuously sending cards to Shen Sui.

Yuan Youxin had already suffered a loss from Anna during their last duel, so how could he possibly keep unfolding while focusing on Anna?

However, people grow.

Although a month was a short time, Yuan Youxin hadn’t obtained many revolutionary Fate Cards from the Soul Card world.

But after suffering a loss from Shen Sui’s hand trap last time, Yuan Youxin reflected deeply and decided to use every means to draw a card that could deal with this situation. My luck is terrible; twice encountering the same opponent, both times with similar scenarios. But my effort is enough to change my luck!

Yuan Youxin took a deep breath and said to Shen Sui, “Don’t think you can defeat me with just one card like last time.”

Shen Sui thought, last time I won because you stubbornly kept unfolding despite Anna’s effect, okay? What’s with this look like you were tricked into losing?

Before he could speak, he saw Yuan Youxin draw a card, and then say to his field, “Paying 5 soul points, I Normal Summon from my hand, the Follower Card, Blue Seal First Disciple Yuan Bu Tong.”

“Activating the effect of Blue Seal First Disciple Yuan Bu Tong,” Yuan Youxin didn’t pause at all. He had already simulated all the steps in his mind when he saw Shen Sui discard Sinful Saint Anna. “When he’s summoned, I can choose one Blue Seal Follower from my deck and Special Summon it to the field.”

With Yuan Youxin’s Soul Card’s effect, he took his deck from the Dueling Instrument and spread it out in front of him.

“I choose to Special Summon from my deck!”

“Blue Seal Gravekeeper Su Tian Yang.”

With Yuan Youxin’s summon, a dejected old man appeared on Yuan Youxin’s field.

“At this time, activating the effect of the Sinful Saint Anna in the graveyard,” Shen Sui became alert when he saw the Gravekeeper on Yuan Youxin’s field.

As everyone knows, in card games, almost all Followers whose names are related to the graveyard have effects that specifically target the graveyard.

If Shen Sui wasn’t wrong, Yuan Youxin’s Blue Seal Gravekeeper Su Tian Yang had a similar effect.

Shen Sui had a general idea and activated Anna’s effect without hesitation.

Five hundred life points for a card; it’s very worthwhile.

Shen Sui drew a card and then took five hundred points of unexplained damage.

“Then,” as expected, Yuan Youxin immediately activated the Gravekeeper’s effect, “activating the effect of my Blue Seal Gravekeeper on the field, during the turn it was summoned, until the end of the turn, neither player can activate the effects of Fate Cards in the graveyard.”

It came.

Shen Sui wasn’t surprised.

A graveyard lock effect? It truly counters Anna.

Anna is defenseless in the graveyard.

Although it’s only a one-turn graveyard lock, it’s enough for Yuan Youxin’s deck.

Shen Sui narrowed his eyes, knowing he could no longer stop Yuan Youxin’s first-turn explosion.

Sure enough, without Anna’s restriction, Yuan Youxin began to unleash his full potential.

He first performed a form transformation on his Soul Card, transforming into Blue Seal Drunkard Yuan Bu Tong, then activated the effect of this form of Yuan Bu Tong, discarding one card from his hand, and then drawing three cards from his deck.

If he did this, Yuan Youxin would need to discard all his hand cards at the end of his turn.

Another fake card.

Even faker than the Blue Seal Summoning Order.

But because it’s a Soul Card, this card won’t be banned.

For decks that can fill the graveyard, the effect of one Blue Seal Drunkard card is at least four times the benefit. If Yuan Youxin can draw more cards through card effects, he’ll gain even more.

Of course, because Yuan Youxin has a Gravekeeper on the field, at least this turn, the graveyard he fills won’t take immediate effect.

But Shen Sui already saw from the composition of Yuan Youxin’s Follower Cards that he wanted to unfold around the graveyard.

I underestimated him.

Next time I’ll print you a Big Universe, have some fun.

Shen Sui muttered in his heart.

About ten minutes later, Yuan Youxin’s storytelling finally came to a close.

On his field, five Followers had been replaced batch after batch. Using the method of releasing cards to recover cost and then using that cost for more Fate Cards, Yuan Youxin managed to complete a ten-minute storytelling first turn.

Even in high-end tournaments where everyone is playing explosive unfolding, this is rare.

It can only be said that Yuan Youxin’s ability to be a top player in amateur competitions is due to his actual skills.

Of course, field building isn’t mindless. The ultimate goal of all first-turn field building is to restrict the opponent’s next turn’s offensive.

Yuan Youxin was naturally adept at this.

Shen Sui looked at Yuan Youxin’s field, guessing the effects of some of the Followers.

Yuan Youxin used up all his soul points and placed a card face-down on his field.

“My turn ends,” Yuan Youxin entered the end phase.

“At this moment,” the moment the time light lit up, Yuan Youxin spoke again, “activating the effect of my Blue Seal Gravekeeper Su Tian Yang on the field, sending one of my Followers to the graveyard to activate its effect, until the start of my next turn, he cannot be destroyed by card effects or battle.”

Blue Seal Sect, Su Tian Yang.

On the surface, he is the Blue Seal Sect’s Gravekeeper.

But in reality, he is one of the strongest ancestors of the sect.

But Yuan Youxin didn’t obtain this Follower Card by brushing up Su Tian Yang’s favorability with Yuan Bu Tong.

Looking at Su Tian Yang on the field, Yuan Youxin didn’t show the pride a Card Master should have for his powerful Fate Cards.

His attitude toward this card was very complex.

Because Su Tian Yang is the typical in-sect villain.

It was Su Tian Yang who buried Yuan Bu Tong in the graveyard, almost killing him.

However, the effect of this card was indeed useful to Yuan Youxin.

“Sending Blue Seal Drunkard Yuan Bu Tong to the graveyard,” Yuan Youxin once again reenacted the plot in the duel.

“My turn.” Shen Sui didn’t know what Yuan Youxin was thinking; he only knew that Yuan Youxin’s current field seemed difficult to solve.

He didn’t have any cards to clear the field in his hand.

Four Follower cards, what kind of field clearing method is there?

Let’s put all hope in the next draw!

Shen Sui placed his hand on his deck.

To be continued.
