"That person is very powerful."
In the audience, Ryo Marufuji narrowed his eyes as he watched the duel end.
"Are you powerful? But why do I think you are more powerful, brother? If you duel with that guy's opponent, I believe you will be able to win magnificently and you will not be forced into a desperate situation at all."
Sho Marufuji was referring to the low health volume of No. 1123 left on the field after the game. He believed that it was not as advantageous as his brother's situation where high health volume would lead to victory.
"The remaining blood volume after victory is not enough to measure the strength of a duelist. What really determines the strength of a duelist is the duelist's heart. I saw it clearly just now. Even after being forced into a desperate situation, that person can't The fact that he didn't show any signs of panic shows that he has a very strong heart and can handle situations calmly even when faced with situations that are not favorable to him, which is very important for a duelist."
After a pause, Marufuji looked at the duels elsewhere, and then continued: "Besides, the other people I know have become different now."
Marufuji knew all the students participating in the exchange competition in school. Marufuji knew how powerful most of them were.
But now, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that during the time when he left school to be exposed to and experience the professional game, the strength of these classmates he knew before in the school could have changed so differently. , as if he had gone through the test of life and death and was reborn.
And I heard that it was that person who caused all of this. The contestants all received special training from that person before the exchange competition started. This allowed so many people to improve their duel strength. You can imagine the strength of the opponent, and it is absolutely not the case. As his brother Xiang said, he is not as good as himself.
Wu Ke took the lead in ending his half duel, but the others are still struggling in their own duel.
With the first three duel universities as victims, Beihai University has made sufficient preparations, relying on the home field advantage to GX Academy to arrange duel opponents for the exchange match. It can be said that except for the students who changed decks, almost every one of them The participating students from GX Academy all encountered opponents with sniping and counterattack decks.
"It's a shady story, it's a fucking shady story!"
Principal Jiaodao's assistant was complaining dissatisfiedly.
"There is no other way. If we communicate with schools one by one, it will be easy for others to collect deck information, so that we can come up with targeted decks and arrange targeted opponents."
Principal Jiaojiao was a little helpless. There was really nothing to say about people collecting intelligence and coming up with targeted decks. Even professional competitions recognized this behavior.
"But, Principal Kashishima, if they didn't deliberately arrange the duels, how could they have allowed the participating students from their own school to face the decks of the participating students from our school that they can control?"
The assistant was indignant. He dared to use his own deck to guarantee that Beihai University was definitely manipulating the duels secretly. He believed that GX Academy should protest with Beihai University about the order of duelists in this exchange competition. A game in which a player is restrained is not fair.
"There is no fairness in this world. Any disadvantages are caused by one's own lack of strength."
Just then, No. 1123 came over.
"But, are we just going to watch like this, watching the students of our academy fall into a disadvantageous situation, watching them face enemies who suppress their own decks alone, and watching them fall into the painful abyss of defeat step by step?"
The assistant witnessed the painful struggle of the students and understood how hard they worked to stand on today's duel stage. It would be fine if they were defeated in a fair duel, but the duel in Beihai University today is not fair at all. How can this be tolerated?
What is even more incomprehensible to the assistant is that it is okay for Principal Jiaodao to be a bit pedantic, but why is Mr. Wu Ke, who brings pain to students and gives them hope, so cowardly?
At this time, shouldn't it be time to argue with the principal of Beihai University and then have a fair and upright duel?
"I believe them!"
The words from No. 1123 silenced the assistant.
[Even if the participating students from GX Academy were sniped by their opponents and were targeted with targeted decks, the person in front of them was still willing to believe that they could defeat their opponents. What kind of trust is this! 】
After a moment of silence, the assistant said: "I am as willing to believe in them as you are, but inverse attributes are inverse attributes. If the deck is restrained, it is restrained. This is an objective factor and will not change because of our belief. Change."
After a pause, the assistant continued: "They work hard, they struggle, they fight hard, but not everyone has your strength, and they can still easily defeat their opponents even when the deck is restrained... "
"I know, that's why I ended my duel early to cheer others up!"
No. 1123 said in approval and looked at Principal Jiaodao next to him.
"Principal Jiaodao, I hope you can negotiate with Beihai University. I need to borrow their radio to encourage our students. Of course, if possible, it would be better to borrow some ready-made instruments, including pianos and violins! "
Principal Jiaodao didn't understand what the other party wanted to do, but the serious expression on the other party told him that he just needed to be an obedient tool. He also hoped that the students could win. He nodded and ran to negotiate with the leadership of Beihai University. .
"What, you want to cheer the students on the radio and borrow some musical instruments?"
"Hahaha, no problem, no problem. I understand why I want to encourage students. Our school borrows them all!"
Principal Jiaodao's negotiations went very smoothly. After all, the leadership of Beihai University thought the other party was here to protest.
After Principal Jiaojiao left, the group joked: "I didn't expect the other party didn't protest."
"But if he borrowed the radio, why would he borrow the musical instrument?"
"Perhaps it is used to cheer people up and improve student morale.
After all, during the wars in the past, there were still drummers in the army. "
"Yeah, that makes sense."
"Hey, can we borrow musical instruments?"
"Why not, you really don't think music is useful, do you? We came up with a targeted lineup this time, and also controlled the duel times of the duelists.
If we compare this exchange match to a war, we are a well-equipped army with perfect formation, while the opponent is a stragglers with shabby equipment.
If you can still be overturned like this, then I will step down from my position as principal! "
Principal Beihai said very confidently.
.
.
"So smooth?"
No. 1123 was a little surprised, but then suddenly realized that the other party probably didn't think it mattered.
It's a pity that the opponent definitely doesn't know that music, in this world of card games, really has the power to stir up the souls of duelists.
After arriving at the music classroom, the broadcast microphone was also connected. No. 1123 moved his fingers and started selecting cards.
He found several cards including [Healing Mind], [Emotional Rhythm], and [Infrasonic Wave] from the cards, and used them directly for himself.
Then, he sat next to the piano, opened the lid, and pressed his fingers on it: "Dang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang..."
There is a heavy bass as soon as it comes up, and the heavy prelude of "Symphony of Destiny" makes the hearts of everyone who hears it shrink.
This is true for ordinary people, but it is even more so for those GX Academy participating students who are in a difficult situation as they are fighting it out in the duel field.
To describe it in one sentence, fate suddenly grabbed their throats, like fish out of the lake, struggling in an instant.
[An app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old book-chasing tool, used by all old bookworms.
Playing cards and playing cards to the sound of the piano, their faces were painful and distorted, like puppets unwilling to be controlled by fate. Finally, they broke the long strings on themselves, broke free from the control of fate, and defeated their opponents. The monster on the card used the final attack to finish off the opponent whose deck had completely restrained itself.
The sound of the piano also became calmer at this time, the violent storm had disappeared, and what was left was the gentle rhythm of the sky clearing after the rain, as if welcoming the rainbow after the rain, and also like welcoming the joy after victory.
Some people had dark faces, while others were smiling like flowers. The participating students from Beihai University looked pale, and the faces of the participating students from GX Academy were all filled with the joy of surviving the disaster. The audience in the auditorium enjoyed this. A double feast of sight and hearing.
After all, in reality, very few people bring their own speakers to play comeback BGM, let alone so many people who come back against the odds. This shows that they think the tickets are worth the money.
"Brother, what's wrong with you?"
Ryo Marufuji knelt down, clutching his chest. The music just now was very suitable for his recent state of mind. In the process of experiencing the professional game recently, he was also struggling. Although his body and mind had recovered from a good night's rest, Some relief, but fell down because of the powerful piano music this time.
"My heart hurts so much, I can't breathe..."
"elder brother?!"
Marufuji Xiang was dumbfounded. His invincible brother suddenly fell down.
He was a little at a loss, but fortunately the assistant lady next to him reacted and quickly called the hospital for emergency help.
"What's wrong, no one fell down on our side, why did the audience in the auditorium fall down?"
Struggling is a terrible job, and there are people who can't resist and faint, but what's the situation now?
"Don't be distracted, stay calm and be prepared for the second half of the duel!"
Principal Jiaojiao said to the distracted students, without paying much attention to the situation in the auditorium.
Hoikai Hospital is not far from Hoikai University, so the ambulance arrived quickly. The medical staff carried away the fallen Marufuji, who left the scene as a relative.
After a storm, the duel continued in the second half. However, Beihai University refused GX Academy's musical encouragement to its students on the grounds of broadcast failure and instrument maintenance.
However, this was of no use. The high morale had been suppressed. The discouraged Beihai University students, even if they used targeted decks, were defeated one by one by the participating students from GX Academy.
In the end, among more than 600 rounds of duel, Beihai University only achieved more than 50 wins, temporarily ranking second among the losing schools.
The worst was the school that was exchanged first, and the number of wins was only in single digits. The best was the school that was exchanged second. On average, each participating student still got two wins.
Ryo Marufuji's collapse was just a minor incident. Not to mention that No. 1123 didn't know that he was almost challenged. Even Principal Kakushima, who was Ryo Marufuji's electronic flow master, didn't know that his student had been to Hokkai University today. At the duel site of the exchange competition, he walked in vertically and was carried out horizontally by the medical staff.
"Your brother's heart is not very good. He has a congenital heart disease. He has been too tired recently, which led to this angina pectoris and syncope."
In Beihai Hospital, the chief doctor of the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine said seriously to Sho Marufuji, the patient's family member.
"In the future, don't let your brother work too much, and don't let him suffer too much heart stimulation. For things like duels, it's best not to let him continue and take good care of his body."
Sho Marufuji was confused when he heard this. His brother, who was once such a strong duelist, was suddenly told that he could not duel.
"Remember, try to let him relax as much as possible, otherwise the next time he collapses, he may end up in the hospital or the crematorium."
Say important things several times, and the director of the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine at Beihai Hospital once again told him that he had obviously seen many patients who did not follow the doctor's instructions, so he could only tell his family members to pay more attention.
"Xiang, how are you? What does the doctor say about my situation?
"
Back in the ward, Ryo Marufuji had woken up and was sitting on the bed. He asked when he saw his brother coming in.
"Brother, it seems you can't play cards anymore. You have a heart problem."
The assistant lady who was following behind and preparing to reassure Marufuji that Ryo was okay heard this, her eyes widened and she looked at Marufuji in disbelief as she said these words.
It's so outrageous that your mother opened the door for outrageousness - it's so outrageous that the doctor asked you to go out to talk about your condition, isn't it because he's worried that your brother will be stimulated?
It turned out that this guy was so good. After his brother asked about it, he told the truth directly. The assistant lady who knew how much Ryo Marufuji loved playing cards looked nervously at Ryo Marufuji's situation. She stood at the door of the ward. Be prepared to rush out and call the doctor for emergency treatment if the other person can't stand the stimulation anymore and gets sick.
"..."
Ryo Marufuji was indeed shocked, but the surprise was not as serious as others thought. After all, he was still a perfect duelist.
"Really? It seems that I also inherited my father's disease."
The father of the Marufuji brothers also died of a heart attack. At that time, Marufuji Sho was still young and had no memory, but Marufuji Ryo remembered it clearly.
It was a little complicated in my heart, a little hard to accept, but it seemed a little relaxed. The feeling that being seriously ill could have an excuse to escape the high expectations of others affected Marufuji without even knowing it.
"For the sake of good health, you should also check the condition of your heart in detail."
"Brother, are you really okay?"
"I look like something is wrong, go ahead."
After his brother left and only the assistant lady was left in the ward, Marufuji Ryo said with a wry smile and a slight apology: "I'm sorry, Miss Yuzuki, I need you to go back and tell Mr. President that I may not be able to sign your contract." Duelist Company."
A duelist who can't fight a duel will definitely not be able to become a professional card player, and no professional duelist company will sign him.
Of course, he might be able to hide his condition until he is signed to become a professional duelist, but Ryo Marufuji, who has not yet truly transformed into Hell's Caesar, would naturally not do such a thing.
"I will tell President Yoshida."
The assistant lady looked at Ryo Marufuji with somewhat complicated eyes. As a duelist, the opponent had a princely charm about him, but he didn't expect that he had a heart problem.
[Lanyan is miserable...]
When this adjective came to mind, the assistant lady asked the young man to have a good rest, and then withdrew.
When there was no one in the ward, Marufuji became a little confused.
"what can we do about it?"
