Chapter 139: captain of the charge

As Scar Senior finished speaking, today's challenge officially began.

The eyes of the people in the stands suddenly shook, and the discussion became more intense. Everyone wanted to see who would go up first.

Most of the students who were planning to take on the challenge sat at the bottom of the stands.

But at this moment, most of the challengers did not move.

Going first is not a good thing.

Even though you can choose the challenger first, the challenged person can't be selected only once during the challenge day.

Even if you win a challenge, if someone else challenges you, you have to accept the challenge.

It will just be given enough time to recover to its peak.

In this way, the later challenger can take the opportunity to observe the strength of his challenge target.

With the beginning of a new year, everyone's strength will inevitably fluctuate. Who knows whether the other party has become stronger.

Maybe the one ranked 100 is now stronger than the one ranked 95.

If you choose again, it will be easy to be cheated.

The challenged person can indeed accept multiple challenges in a day, but the challenger only has one chance a day.

Of course, this "once" actually refers to a chance of failure.

If you can win the challenge, after adjustment, you can choose to challenge the students with higher rankings on the list again. This is no problem.

At this moment, no one was in a hurry to go on stage.

But there was a figure that immediately attracted widespread attention as soon as he stood up from his seat.

The first ones to react were basically the first-year students.

Under the focus of all eyes, the man walked down the stairs with steady and powerful steps and a serious expression on his face.

Cheers and cheers suddenly broke out.

"Wuhu, it's Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi is awesome!"

"Let's do it! Once we top the Rising Stars list, we'll be done. Let the seniors see what our new batch of students are capable of."

"Fuck, this is awesome, Xiao Yi is here right now?!"

surprise!

excited!

Blood boils!

No wonder they were making such a fuss, it was impossible not to be excited!

Although I had been looking forward to it before coming here, after all, the school has just started and this is just the first challenging day of this semester.

On this challenge day, even the lowest ranked Rising Stars were still in the top 200 of their grade.

Students like this, when they enter school, must at least be the top students in Class B.

In a top-notch duelist school like Jiangcheng University, after a full year of training, his strength has obviously improved by leaps and bounds.

On the other hand, no matter how famous Xiao Yi is, he is still a freshman after all.

The chances of winning are obvious.

But even so, Xiao Yi still went up and was the first to take the lead!

Of course, there are also many people who believe that Xiao Yi can win the first battle.

This is thanks to Lin You's victory over Zhu Hui, which made many people feel that their class is awesome and full of geniuses!

If Lin You can do it, then Xia Mu and Xiao Yi, who are almost as famous as him, should be able to do it too!

Without saying too much, it’s not a problem to be ranked last on the list and get kicked off!

But even those who thought so were still very excited and surprised when they saw that the person who kicked off this challenge was Xiao Yi!

Afterwards, they all cheered loudly.

For a moment, the huge venue was filled with the noises of the first-year students, which seemed to be "stealing the main event".

This scene naturally caused discomfort among the old students.

"What's going on? Are there any freshmen who dare to interfere in today's challenge? These people are shouting so loudly. Are all the freshmen this year so arrogant?"

"They're a bit ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth. These youngsters, fresh out of school, haven't been taught anything yet? Even if they're the Rookie King, so what? Do they think they can defeat the top students right now? Even the ones ranked last, if they really fight, they should have a significant advantage, right?"

"It's really a bit surprising. Where do they get their confidence from?"

Many senior students gathered in groups of three or five to discuss the matter, and were extremely surprised that the first person to take the lead today was a freshman.

But as soon as these discussions began, some senior students gave answers without much interest.

"Tsk, what else could it be? It was that duel a few days ago. Zhu Hui humiliated us. He lost to the freshman king, and he was clearly suppressed."

"Is it just because of this? Why does Zhu Hui represent us? Is this the same as the Rising Stars List?"

"Zhu Hui? I've never heard of that name before. What the hell?"

Someone immediately retorted in dissatisfaction.

"Yes, Zhu Hui is nothing, but those 'cute' juniors don't think so. They actually think we're the last one in the second grade. But never mind, the facts will soon show them that we're a bunch of fledglings, so it's best not to flutter around too fast."

The freshmen were shouting and the seniors were talking about it. Xiao Yi's appearance instantly attracted everyone's attention and became the focus of the whole audience.

With his back to the stands, Xiao Yi walked slowly towards the center of the field with a serious expression and said nothing, but he felt a long-lost sense of relief in his heart.

This is what he wants and what he should have!

He, Xiao Yi, is not an ordinary person!

"Pick someone."

Senior Scar took a puff of his cigar, completely unconcerned about how enthusiastic the reaction in the stands was.

It doesn't matter to him who comes first or later, or whether they are freshmen or veterans.

Xiao Yi's eyes remained the same, and he said calmly: "No. 192 on the list, Sun Feiyu."

After he finished speaking, Scar Senior remained calm, but he used his magic power in vain to flip a card.

A moment later, a dog-headed monster holding a silver-white revolver appeared.

There is a circle of numbers engraved on the body of this revolver.

After the dog-headed man appeared, he didn't waste any time and raised his hand and fired a shot into the air.

Bang!

A bullet broke through the air, rose into the air in an instant, and then exploded like a firework.

In the air, a bright number appeared - 192!

Since it was a challenge day, many of the students on the list came to the scene. When they saw this signal, they knew that they were being challenged.

As for those who are absent, they will be notified in other ways.

But generally speaking, those who were not present were often quite confident in their own abilities and believed that no one would challenge them at this stage.

These students are naturally ranked higher.

If you are really challenged, it’s because you are targeted by people of similar ranking.

In this case, you will usually receive a notice in advance, set a time, and arrive as if you were making an appointment.

But Sun Feiyu is obviously not among them, and he is also present today.

But after seeing that Xiao Yi was going to challenge him, the crowd at the scene went into an uproar.

Most of the freshmen were just excited and cheering, and only a few realized the seriousness of this challenge.

But the old man was really getting restless.

What the hell?

A freshman wants to challenge Sun Feiyu, who ranks 192nd on the list?

Are you okay?

How many dishes are there? Why are you drinking so much?

You really don't know that those at the bottom of the list cannot be confused with those ranked 192, right?

The old students just thought it was ridiculous!

But after that, he soon smiled with relief.

It is a well-known fact that there are 200 places in the Rising Star List.

The last five positions on the list, 195-200, have the highest turnover rate!

And this change refers to being brought down by students who are not on the list.

But the rankings after that are relatively stable, and even if they change, they are often internal changes.

Perhaps the gap between the 193rd and 192nd places is minimal, but compared with the few people on the edge, this "stability" alone says a lot.

There is a big gap in strength!

Therefore, although Sun Feiyu's position is not much different from the most marginal ones, in fact, they are two levels apart.

It is understandable that freshmen are unaware of this.

No one will remind you, maybe they think that moving a few more people forward will make you look more stylish and prestigious.

As a result, I fell into this trap and paid the price for my ignorance.

This person dared to come up and challenge, so I think he must have some strength, and he might be at the level of Rookie King.

This kind of freshman might actually have a chance to challenge those at the back.

But now, you are asking for trouble!

At this time, somewhere in the stands.

Seeing the signal calling him, Sun Feiyu raised his eyebrows.

Interesting, a freshman comes to challenge himself?

Someone around joked, "Brother Yu, why don't you break it for him? Let this kid know what the difference is. Does he really think our studies were for nothing?"

"Yeah, Brother Yu, that guy Zhu Hui ruined our reputation last time. You have to do your best this time and suppress him as hard as you can. Although others think it's only natural to win against a freshman, it's satisfying enough to suppress their arrogance. Otherwise, they'll really treat our class like idiots."

"I will definitely try my best."

Sun Feiyu also laughed and said, "He's most likely one of those 'High School Rookie King' guys. He's quite talented and confident. I don't think he's completely clueless. Challenging me? I think he's probably been provoked by someone and is anxious to prove something."

"Alright, if you want to use me to prove something to him, no problem. Just show me the corresponding ability! If you're not capable enough, then you deserve to be treated worse to your sting. A little more frustration, giving me this opportunity to bully a genius is really great!"

Being selected by the freshmen, Sun Feiyu did not think that Xiao Yi was arrogant. Not to mention how powerful the other party was, he dared to stand up at this time and take the lead. This courage alone was enough for him to admire!

It was far worse than this when he first entered school.

Soon, Sun Feiyu walked down the stairs and entered the venue.

"Everyone take your positions."

Scar senior shouted casually, and the two of them immediately distanced themselves from each other until the distance between them reached fifty meters.

Both sides took their positions, the duel was about to begin, and the atmosphere on the scene was completely ignited.

Cheers and cheers rang out one after another.

Even those second-year students who believed that Sun Feiyu would win were inexplicably nervous at this time. They shouted out loud to cheer for Sun Feiyu and vent their nervousness.

"Why don't you try opening this game?"

Turning his gaze from the field to look at Guo Rui, Lin You started joking.

"I didn't connect with him!"

Guo Rui shook his head and said, "Besides, I don't have the same confidence in him as I do in you. 192, this ranking means the level of strength is different. It will probably be difficult for Xiao Yi to win."

"These two idiots... ahem, maybe they have some hidden cards."

At this point, Lin You coughed and almost said it out of turn, which was a bit awkward, but fortunately he adjusted himself in time.

"It's still not safe enough."

Guo Rui was still worried, "If I wasn't careful, I'd lose all my pants. I wouldn't even be able to cry."

"Okay, whatever you want."

Lin You was just talking casually and didn't dwell on it anymore.

At the same time, in the venue, the senior with scar had already announced the start of the duel.

The moment they heard the command, Xiao Yi and Sun Feiyu in the venue formed a soul connection at the same time.

Then, the monster was released.

There was a violent movement on the ground and a rumbling sound.

After a while, a monster about seven or eight meters tall, whose body seemed to be made of huge stones, stood in the middle of the field.

【Destiny Hero Defender】

Warrior clan, dark attribute.

Attack power/100, defense power/2700.

It was the powerful monster that Xiao Yi had used in the entrance examination.

Nothing else to say about the appearance of this monster.

The momentum is overwhelming!

It also instantly caused exclamations from the stands.

As for Sun Feiyu, he also summoned a warrior monster.

Humanoid, with yellow hair, wearing silver-white standard armor, holding a standard long sword in each hand.

He held one of the weapons on his shoulder, and the cloak behind him was lifted up, which gave him a very imposing aura.

I'm just afraid of comparison in everything.

Such a humanoid warrior monster does seem a little small compared to the stone giant-like defender opposite.

【Captain of the Charge】

Warrior, Earth attribute

Attack power/1200, defense power/400.

Judging from the panel data, there doesn't seem to be anything worth mentioning.

But the moment the monster appeared, he raised his right hand, pointed his sword to the sky, and shouted, as if he was shouting something.

The moment the voice fell, white light flashed and another figure emerged.

Looking at that figure, it was exactly the same as the previous one.

The second captain charging into battle!

After the captain appeared, he quickly performed the same action, raised his sword and shouted.

The third summoning white light appeared, less than a second after the first two!

But this time, it was no longer the same monster that appeared, but it was still a humanoid monster.

A man with a fierce face, wearing only a bulletproof vest, revealing his well-developed muscles.

Tattoos covered his iron-like muscles, and the man also held weapons in his hands.

But it wasn't a sword, it was a gun.

Submachine gun!

【Leader??Zarug】

Warrior clan, dark attribute.

Attack power/1400, defense power/1500.

In a short period of time, three monsters were connected on Sun Feiyu's field.

This is thanks to the captain who charges into battle. This monster can special summon a white star monster from the deck when it is successfully summoned, thus helping Sun Feiyu to suppress the situation in an instant.

Of course, even if it’s three to one.

Judging from the momentum, the defender has the advantage. The visual impact of this big guy is indeed huge!

At this moment, Sun Feiyu suddenly felt uneasy.

He had this feeling, of course not because he was really scared by the size of the defender, but because he noticed that a card in his deck suddenly moved.

The magical restrictions on it were erased.

This means that this card temporarily becomes a zero-cost card.

And this abnormal change obviously did not occur on its own.

After a year of studying at Jiangcheng University, Sun Feiyu had a lot of dueling experience and immediately realized that something was wrong.

This effect is most likely a side effect of the opponent's card effect.

After all, a defender with a defense power of up to 2700 points has a panel data that is a bit "over the top". It is almost impossible for a regular White Star monster to reach this strength.

It is not surprising that there are side effects.

However, any clever duelist, if conditions permit, will often find a way to take advantage of this so-called 'side effect', thereby forming a linkage of card effects.

Sun Feiyu has had many similar experiences!

Therefore, his vigilance came quickly.

The next moment, a trap card and a magic card were revealed in front of Xiao Yi one after another.

A pair of bright red fists landed between the defender's huge fists.

Immediately afterwards, a knight wearing dark yellow armor appeared, holding a shield in his left hand and a sword in his right.

This figure originated from that magic card.

After the knight appeared, he did nothing else but switch the positions of the shield in his left hand and the sword in his right hand.

The moment the weapons were exchanged, a strange force instantly covered the entire field!

Sun Feiyu noticed that the offense and defense of the three monsters on his field seemed to change at this moment along with the weapons exchanged in the knight's hands!

It was another abnormal phenomenon, even though it only happened briefly, he still caught it.

There is a problem!

There is definitely a problem!

The alarm bells in my mind began to ring wildly.

Seeing this scene in the stands, Lin You couldn't help but smile, "It's this familiar trick again. It doesn't seem so easy to defend against it."

What tricks?

Guo Rui, who was standing by, looked confused and didn't quite understand.

He did notice some clues, especially when he saw that the defender's attack power was as high as 2700 points, he was also shocked.

But at the same time, its defensive strength was reduced to a pitiful 100 points after the exchange.

He is obviously a big guy, but at this moment he is as fragile as paper.

What’s the use of having high attack power?

It is easy to be exploited and killed in one fell swoop.

All in all, this exchange is not cost-effective.

Or does Xiao Yi have another trick?

Guo Rui didn't ask any more questions, but just continued to look back at the scene with some curiosity.

Anyway, it’s not open.

Winning or losing doesn't matter, he has no pressure!
