In the sea of spirit.

In a dark, smoky room.

The outlines of a dozen cards were quietly arranged.

Only two cards were revealed.

The sealed left wrist, the sealed right wrist!

What Lin You truly controls now is only his sealed left wrist.

The sealed right wrist was unlocked, but only information was unlocked.

To fully unlock it, you need to accumulate 1000 points of Dark Source.

At this moment, a deep yellow light vibrated, and the sealed right wrist, which was also bound by a deep yellow chain, finally revealed its appearance completely.

In appearance, it is exactly the same as the left wrist, except that there are one left wrist and one right wrist.

【The Duelist has unlocked his sealed right wrist! 】

The brown subtitles appeared again, announcing Lin You's successful unlocking this time.

The subtitles appeared for a moment, and then a slight fluctuation was heard in the room.

Under this fluctuation, the information of a card gradually emerged!

It is the third card in the Black Source card book.

What will it be?

Are they still similar body parts?

Could it be the left foot's turn this time, or the right foot's, or even...

Lin You was thinking about this in his mind, his eyes fixed on the revealed card.

When he saw it clearly, he was immediately surprised.

【Lava Demon】

Star rating: Dark red

Attribute: Fire

Race: Demon

Attack power: 3000, Defense power: 2500

Special effect: This card cannot be Normal Summoned, but it can Release 2 monsters on the opponent's field and Special Summon them on the opponent's field. When this card is Special Summoned, you cannot Normal Summon within 30 seconds. If you have Normal Summoned within the past 30 seconds, this effect cannot be activated. The soul linker of this card must pay 1000 soul points per minute.

Unlock condition: 'Source of Darkness' accumulated points reach 2000.

Current Dark Source: 1000 points

…

The third card unlocked in the Black Source card book is no longer the sealed body parts, but a monster that has reached the Dark Red Star level!

Not only that, this dark red star monster also has an extremely special effect.

It cannot be summoned by itself, but needs to be special summoned to the opponent's field by sacrificing the opponent's monster!

At first glance, this effect seems to be a bargain for the other party.

But what if the sacrifices were two dark red star monsters?

This is equivalent to relying on one's own strength to forcibly kill two monsters of the same level in an instant!

Moreover, this type of forced liberation is even more overbearing than forced destruction and forced exclusion in terms of effect!

Especially the Lava Demon itself, it has the powerful level of Dark Red Star!

In this case, liberating the two dark red star monsters is almost inevitable!

After being liberated, the control of the Lava Demon fell into the hands of the opposing duelist.

Since it is not a short-term transformation, the soul connector naturally becomes the other party!

The cost of 1,000 soul points per minute mentioned in the effect is exactly what the other party needs to bear!

1000 points per minute. For a duelist whose soul value is still at 2000 points before the fusion of spirit and demon, this is a fatal countdown!

After all, not everyone would bring cards that restore soul points, and even if they did, the number should be limited.

In this way, the deterrent power generated by the Lava Demon in the duel is even more difficult to estimate.

“I didn’t expect there would be any changes…”

Lin You felt a little emotional, but also felt that it was unexpected but reasonable.

After all, there are more than a dozen cards in the Black Source card book, so naturally not every card is a body part.

In addition, it is a pity that even though it is unlocked now, it does not mean that you can use it.

There is still a full 1,000 points of Dark Source missing!

I don’t know how long it will take to completely unlock this card!

At least during this competition, it is difficult to rely on this aspect.

Unless there is a dark duelist hidden among the contestants, and a dark duelist who can mobilize a huge source of darkness!

Is this possible?

Lin You shook his head. It was too ridiculous. Could anyone hide it from the vice president of the Bird City Association?

As I was thinking about this, my vision suddenly went dark.

A ray of light enveloped him, and this round of competition ended here!

…

After a long time, vision finally returned to normal.

What appeared before their eyes was the social hall. Lin You and others returned here again.

As soon as he came back, a look of surprise appeared on Lin You's face.

The entire hall suddenly seemed unusually empty!

Although the hall was already huge, there were at least thousands of people there before, and now...

Lin You couldn't have imagined it!

How come there are suddenly more than 20 people!

I took another quick look and this time I could confirm, 21 people!

Including myself, there are only 22 people in total.

In this second round of resisting darkness, nearly a thousand people were eliminated?

Not really!

Lin Youzhen was a little bit unbelievable. In his opinion, the difficulty was average, and it could even be regarded as the second round of the welfare link, but it turned out to be an astonishing sweep!

This place is almost cleared!

While he was still digesting all this, Chestnut Ball suddenly flew out, pointed somewhere, and motioned Lin You to look.

Lin You forced himself to swallow the shock in his heart and looked over.

Did the little guy discover anything again?

His eyes quickly locked onto one person, but because the other person had his back to him, Lin You could only see the back.

The figure from behind looked a little thin. In addition, one could see that the man's hair was unkempt and messy, like a chicken coop.

Looking at the chicken coop-like hairstyle and then at the other person's figure, Lin You was stunned as he suddenly thought of something.

At this moment, whether by coincidence or by awareness, the other party turned around, revealing a face that Lin You was no stranger to.

Especially the other party's face was filled with a smile of madness and fighting spirit.

Xu Feng!

He is here too?

Lin You, who finally reacted, was a little surprised.

But then he thought of the other party's pathological warlike character, especially when fighting against the strong, and he was immediately relieved.

This place is perfect for each other!

Moreover, with Xu Feng's talent, combined with his background as the Rookie King of the Imperial Capital, even in just a few months, the progress in his strength is quite terrifying!

After all, during the national competition, the opponent's strength was astonishingly strong.

His magic power is extremely deep, and his soul strength is also quite high, so he can easily carry cards engraved with the middle star spirit pattern.

He lost to himself because the Red Star was an insurmountable barrier that stood in front of Xu Feng at that time.

And now Xu Feng should no longer be isolated by such barriers.

With the strength of his soul, after achieving a glory-level breakthrough, he would most likely have no problem carrying the dark red star monster.

Lin You has a high opinion of Xu Feng.

I believe he has this ability now!

However, there are also differences in the carrying capacity of the dark red star monster.

Single dark red star, double dark red star, triple dark red star and even more are all different concepts!

For Lin You nowadays, as long as he has enough magic power and it does not exceed the carrying limit, it doesn’t matter how much he carries!

Thinking of this, Lin You also smiled.

Xu Feng, you are making rapid progress, but the distance between you and me may be even greater than it was then!

"It's so scary, so terrible!"

Suddenly, a frightened voice came to my ears.

No longer looking at Xu Feng, Lin You turned his head and looked over, a little surprised: "Brother Chu, what's wrong? Why do you act like you've been abused?"

"Isn't that torture?"

Chu Jie said angrily, "This second round was too dangerous and too unexpected. How can you play it like this? I almost didn't make it until I was teleported back. Look at the number of people eliminated. What is the Bird City Association trying to do? Are they short of funds and are they in a hurry to end the competition?"

"You almost couldn't hold on?"

Lin You was surprised again. Chu Jie was a duelist whose magic power reached 30,000 points and had reached the stage of combining spirit and demon.

Although we have just reached the starting point, it should be of great value.

Judging from the opponent's strength, his ranking in this competition should be quite high!

But on second thought, there are only a little over 20 people now.

Even if Chu Jie's ranking is high, it won't be much higher. It's reasonable that he almost couldn't hold on.

But it is still shocking. From this point of view, no one in the hall is easy to deal with!

He glanced around again and suddenly noticed an acquaintance.

Kobe Ryohei!

That spiritual kingdom duelist!

"He advanced too...that's good."

Lin You smiled. It seemed that his strength was still considered strong among these people.

At this time, Kobe Ryohei also noticed Lin You's gaze.

The duelist from the Spirit Kingdom is quite sharp.

But no matter how perceptive he was, he didn't expect that Lin You quietly used him as a unit of measurement.

Otherwise, with his temper, he would probably be so angry that he would jump up and down.

At this moment, Kobe Ryohei seemed to be communicating something with someone next to him.

He was a young man with a slicked-back hair. Perhaps due to his strength, his eyes were full of confidence.

But when he looked at Lin You, he became more serious.

This guy... is not simple!

A Chinese duelist with monstrous talent!

Seeing him staring at Lin You for a while, Kanbe Ryohei couldn't help but send another voice message: "Yue Yong, what do you think? Do you see anything special about him?"

Yue Yongmingdou said in a serious tone, "I sensed the aura of a powerful person. Given his strength, it's still too early for him to participate in the core stage of this competition. But in two or three years, he will not lose to any of the participants this time!"

"You mean..."

Kanbe Ryohei's face changed drastically. He understood what Yue Yong meant.

In two or three years, Lin You will become a master!

And he is not even twenty years old yet, a master duelist of twenty-two or twenty-three years old?

My scalp tingles just thinking about it!

In the Spirit Kingdom, he had never heard of such a young master duelist!

According to Tsukuyomi's evaluation, has that guy risen to the level of a historical duelist?

Kobe Ryohei was extremely uneasy.

My mood became extremely complicated for a moment.

Losing to such a person seems to be justifiable.

But why isn't such a genius myself?

Lin You naturally didn't know about the private conversation between the two Ling Kingdom duelists, and he didn't pay any attention to it.

At this moment, everyone's gaze in the hall suddenly shifted.

Chen Feiang's figure appeared in the hall at some point.

Seeing everyone's look, Chen Feiang was all smiles, with no intention of explaining further about the second round in which a large number of duelists were eliminated.

"Congratulations! You've successfully passed the second round. Everyone standing here will have the opportunity to compete for the title of 'World's Strongest'!"

The words that were suddenly thrown out greatly elevated the significance of this event.

The strongest in the world!

In a sense, there is nothing wrong with such an exaggerated name.

It simply defines a scope.

And this category is exactly the Honor Level!

Whoever wins the final victory in this competition will undoubtedly be the most powerful glory-level duelist in the dueling world!

But generally speaking, no one would specifically give such great significance to the Honor level.

At this moment, in the hall, some people's eyes have revealed their burgeoning ambitions.

That is the ambition to win and become stronger!

After two rounds of competition, they stood out from thousands of glory-level duelists from all over the world. For them who are still standing here, the seemingly distant mountain top seems to be just around the corner.

At this moment, everyone's thoughts were surprisingly consistent -

Reach the top of the mountain!
