Inside the room, Téa Gardner had already fallen into a deep, heavy sleep. Perhaps because she had transformed her worry into strength, the two of them had been incredibly wild.
After Yufeng tucked her in with the quilt, he got out of bed, dressed, and left the room.
"Téa was even more wild than before. It seems longing has become a source of motivation for everyone." Yufeng closed the door and promptly exited the dungeon.
The Duel in the Sky was not over yet. He expected his next match to be against either Yami Yugi or Kaiba. However, now that even the Egyptian Gods had been dealt with, could Yami Yugi and Kaiba really have any trump cards more terrifying than those?
Yufeng felt that if this were reality where the physical cards were nerfed into the ground it might be possible. But against the anime-effect Three Egyptian Gods, how could Yugi and Kaiba even stand a chance against him?
[Ding! The dungeon mission has been completed! Reward: Priest Piwen's ability! Shadow Game permissions are being initialized Supreme Darkness suppresses all Shadow Games! Reward: High Grade Card Pack x15!]
[Ding! Reward: 50,000 Duel Points!]
[Ding! Based on the Millennium Eye, you are rewarded with your first Spirit Partner skill: Mind Scan. When Life Points are above eighty percent, you can see through the opponent's thoughts. This skill is available after possession!]
Yufeng finally realized that the Spirit Partner's skills didn't just stem from intimacy; they were also tied to his Millennium Items.
Previously, the power of the Millennium Eye required the use of Toon Kingdom. Now, things were different; he could use it as long as he coexisted with the spirit. To be precise, it wasn't exactly possession, but coexistence distinct from the Pharaoh's situation and more akin to how Jaden and Yubel existed as two consciousnesses at the same time during possession.
Regardless, it was a significant leap in power.
By the time he returned to the real world, only twenty-odd minutes had passed.
"Ten minutes left until the next wave of card pack airdrops." Yufeng immediately began to move. He had already solved the previous mystery. He had always felt as if someone was secretly monitoring him, and it turned out that sensation was the presence of Holactie the Creator of Light.
To be honest, while Holactie was powerful, fulfilling her summoning conditions was even more difficult and niche than Exodia the Forbidden One.
Usually, summoning a single Egyptian God was enough to win a duel. Holactie, who required all three Egyptian Gods just to appear, was indeed impractical. She would likely only be used once in a truly epic, legendary battle!
However, none of that was a concern for Yufeng right now. The Battle Royale had reached a fever pitch.
"Smiling Face Masked Man is out!!"
"Crying Face Masked Man is out!!"
"Ghost Face Masked Man is out!!"
In rapid succession, the remaining three masked men had all been eliminated. As these three announcements broke, the entire audience was sent into a state of shock.
It was clear to everyone that the remaining four participants were exceptionally powerful. The survivors were Ma Qingxue, Ning Yuxiao, the mysterious White Masked Man from Wind Thunder Academy, and Yufeng.
Moreover, unbeknownst to the duelists on the field, the Battle Royale was being live-streamed. It was being broadcast nationwide in real-time.
Instructor Du knew full well that if the duelists knew they were being watched, they would act differently. To ensure they dueled with genuine intensity while still broadcasting the event, he had kept them in the dark.
Now, the entire country was abuzz. In every small restaurant, customers ignored their meals to stare at the television. In every street and alleyway, people were glued to the broadcast. Even schools were playing the stream, treating it as a live teaching model.
In a world where duelists reigned supreme, such an event naturally drew immense attention.
The top three finishers of this Battle Royale would become prime recruitment targets for major corporations, destined for a life at the pinnacle, because the standard of the Whampoa Military Academy's Battle Royale was incredibly high. Even though it was technically a city-level competition, its prestige was more than sufficient.
This was precisely why such a massive audience was tuning in. Currently, the vast majority of the online commentary revolved around Yufeng.
"My god, who is this Yufeng? Why have I never heard of him before?"
"There are only two people in there that no one recognizes. Everyone knows Ma Qingxue is Jack Ma's daughter, and Ning Yuxiao is the young master of the capital's Ning Family military district. Only Yufeng and that white-masked mystery man seemed to have popped out of nowhere."
"I heard Yufeng is already the top student at Emperor Academy. Apparently, just a month or two ago, he was still just a first-year freshman. My god, what kind of monster is he?"
"That's nothing. Have you heard? Word is he possesses monster cards with the DIVINE Attribute!"
"Holy crap! I've studied all these years for nothing. There are actually monsters with a DIVINE Attribute?"
"One 'holy crap' to rule them all... I've studied for nothing too!"
"Gods? Do they really exist? A man who can command a god... how incredibly charming. I'm dying!"
