My Stubborn Soul Card Follower

"I didn't expect you to choose this place as the dueling arena."

Shen Sui walked onto the rooftop of the teaching building of Tianyi Academy, looking at An Hai, who was standing in the open space of the rooftop in a white coat.

The autumn breeze lifted the hem of his coat, and his tall, strong figure stood against the sun, towering over Shen Sui like a giant.

Life Card Masters use every tactic to apply more psychological pressure on their opponents before and during a duel.

The trash talk before a match and the arrogant disdainful words during a duel are not just childish acts by the Life Card Masters; they are part of the battle.

Unmoved, Shen Sui glanced at the lock on the rooftop door, rare to see a building where one can just walk onto the rooftop.

In his previous life, all the tall buildings he encountered usually had locked rooftops.

"The environment here is quite good," An Hai said quietly, gazing at the distant buildings of Modu, "Compared to the oppressive city center, I prefer dueling here."

"I originally wanted to see the beautiful spectacle of your Rose Followers in bloom," Shen Sui remarked.

Since they chose to duel on the rooftop, there was no need to expect equipment that could project followers more clearly and realistically, only the basic Dueling Device's imagery.

"Don't worry, you will see it," An Hai revealed his Dueling Device, "very soon."

Seeing the duel invitation light up on the Dueling Device, Shen Sui said, "You're straightforward, starting just like that?"

"My purpose, Wang Ming has already told you," An Hai said seriously, "So why waste words? Let's begin! I hope your strength changes my view of you!"

"If it's only the level of facing Yang Liguang that day, then you have no right to be the master of the Fairy Rose!"

"I'm a reasonable person, but I have one bad habit," Shen Sui activated his Dueling Device, "Any Life Card that enters my hands, don't expect to take it away from me!"

Clicking agree, the duel begins!

The two Dueling Devices connected, and a field enveloped in light was divided out.

The turn cards were drawn, determining the owner of the first turn.

"My turn!" An Hai shouted, a white light flying out from his hand cards, "Pay 2 Soul Points, activate from my hand, Spell Card [Flower Field Dew]!"

"By the end of this turn, if I summon or special summon five or more [Rose] or [Rose] followers this turn, I can refill my hand to three cards."

"Because [Flower Field Dew] left my hand zone." An Hai immediately drew another card from his hand, "I activate the effect of my Follower Card [White Rose·Lu Ya] from my hand, which can be activated when my hand leaves the hand zone outside of the end phase of my turn to special summon it from my hand."

"Then," An Hai extended his hand towards Shen Sui, "because I lost one card from my hand this time, I can exile one card from your hand, and at the end of the turn when Lu Ya is specially summoned, this exiled card will return to your hand."

One of Shen Sui's cards was sent to the banished zone.

No Hand Traps in the starting hand, as long as the opponent doesn't use some sneaky move to seal off his banished zone, Shen Sui didn't suffer much loss.

But you have to admit, the effect of this card is quite impressive.

If luck is on your side, you can exile all of your opponent's hand cards.

It's like the Life Card Duel version of Conqueror, as expected.

Although it only defends against Hand Traps, it's definitely useful against Underworld decks. What if at the critical moment of you turning the tables with the last bit of health, the other side pulls out a War Eraser on you?

If it were me, I could use it in combination with [Embers Clearer Alice] or [Broken Boundary Empress Antipus], both of which can seal off the opponent's banished zone, exile your cards, and then lock your banished zone!

"Pay 14 Soul Points, transform the form of my field's [White Rose·Lu Ya]!"

An Hai raised his hand, a beam of light burst out from the adorable flower maiden on his field.

14-star form?

Shen Sui's heart tightened, as he already knew which card this was.

At the moment when An Hai activated the Form Transformation, countless blood-red roses blossomed on his field.

Beautiful yet dangerous.

Resplendent yet terrifying.

"Humble plants, let everyone know your terror!"

"Form Transformation!"

"Radiant Dragon Spirit Rose! Lu Ya!"

Roar—!

A furious dragon roar that roses shouldn't have made echoed throughout the entire academy.

"What's that?" A student pointed fearfully towards the rooftop of the teaching building.

Layer upon layer of dazzling red roses with barbs covered the whole rooftop.

And these layers of captivating roses stacked and bloomed, ultimately forming a giant dragon made of rose flowers.

"It's Radiant Dragon Spirit Rose!" someone recognized the follower, "It's An Hai's Soul Card!"

"An Hai? Why is An Hai here?!"

"He seems to be dueling with someone?!" the students murmured.

"Even though it's just the Dueling Device's special effects, it's still so realistically beautiful," Shen Sui said, clicking his tongue as he watched the Radiant Dragon Spirit Rose blooming before him.

The appearance of the Radiant Dragon Spirit Rose was not the end of An Hai's display.

As a premier field control player, exhausting his Soul Points was just the start of An Hai's setup.

"Activate the effect of [Radiant Dragon Spirit Rose·Lu Ya], in the turn she debuts with form transformation, special summon a [Rose] or [Rose] follower of the same star level from my deck," An Hai unfolded his deck, "Followers special summoned this way will be sent to the graveyard at the end of the turn."
