Upon speaking, An Hai opened his graveyard and activated the effect of Nether River Rose, banishing any number of [Rose] or [Roses] followers from the graveyard, and then special summoning a [Rose] or [Roses] follower from the deck whose stars equal the total stars of the banished followers.

A pretty good effect.

Shen Sui sighed inwardly upon hearing the description of Nether River Rose's effect.

This kind of grave effect is one that can create much excitement, and if it could be activated during the opponent's turn, it would be perfect.

Of course, this type of effect is still quite dependent on the deck's composition.

Hmm, it also relies on the Life Card Master's mind.

If one's mind isn't sharp, even calculating gains might make their brain smoke from overthinking.

At this point, the resources Bai Ye left Shen Sui to stop An Hai's expansion had been nearly exhausted, and from then on, he could no longer obstruct An Hai's development.

It's just, Beast Taming class decks are truly formidable, even with such limitations, An Hai still managed to leap into an explosive unfolding with the single-card effect of Nether River Rose.

If only he had included a Deep Sea Fish King in his deck.

Shen Sui grumbled inwardly as he watched An Hai's incessant explanations.

Five special summons, then eat a Deep Sea Fish King, An Hai would definitely be pleased.

The audience felt quite thrilled seeing Shen Sui's bored expression.

You brat also have times when it's your turn to duel!

Finally, after nearly ten minutes of narration, An Hai eventually laid out a relatively satisfactory front field for himself, then ended his main phase, declaring the entrance into the battle phase.

In a tag duel, both sides have a Life Value of sixteen thousand, and for An Hai's non-aggressive deck, dealing sixteen thousand damage in one turn, especially when the opponent has a high-star high-Spirit Value follower on the field, is indeed challenging.

"When the opponent enters the battle phase, I activate on my field the effect of [Grafa's Dragon Princess Onira]." As An Hai entered the battle phase, Shen Sui decisively activated Onira's effect, "I discard two cards from my hand, and until the end of this turn, you can only target Onira as the target of your attacks."

Onira is a thirteen-star follower with a Spirit Value of 5000.

For An Hai, who had just completed the finale, this kind of follower was not something that couldn't be destroyed.

Since you're the taunting unit, I'll destroy you first!

An Hai decisively launched an attack.

However, as the crazy plant of the rose attacked Onira, just when it was about to destroy Onira, Shen Sui's voice rang out again: "When Onira is battle-destroyed, I can activate her effect, selecting a follower from my deck. If a follower card is chosen successfully, Onira is spared from this battle destruction."

As his words fell, Shen Sui's deck automatically cut two facedown Life Cards.

Shen Sui chose one of them.

[Loli Dragon Princess Mista].

Subsequently, the other chosen card also flipped, revealing a Spell Card.

Shen Sui did not place this Spell Card on top of the deck for control but shuffled it back into the deck.

As for the revealed follower card, it was discarded to the graveyard according to the selection rules.

With the smoke clearing, Onira stood firm on the field, truly embodying the principle of smoke without injury.

"Hmph, I don't believe your luck is that good." An Hai said defiantly, launching another attack.

Shen Sui naturally didn't show weakness, activating Onira's effect and making another follower selection.

This time, the follower card [Loli Dragon Princess Aula] was sent to the graveyard.

Seeing Onira still standing firm, An Hai sighed.

The remaining two followers had lower Spirit Values than Onira, not even having the qualification to destroy Onira in battle.

"My turn ends." An Hai decisively concluded this round.

"Then my turn begins." Almost the moment An Hai's turn ended, Shen Sui announced the start of his turn.

"Draw card."

Instead of rushing to summon Qishala from his hand, he paid Soul Points to normally summon [Loli Dragon Maid Mitole] first.

"Activate the effect of [Loli Dragon Maid Mitole]. When she's summoned or special summoned, I can activate it to send the top three cards of my deck to the graveyard."

Shen Sui activated Mitole's effect and sent the top three cards of his deck to the graveyard.

Glancing at these three cards, Shen Sui shook his head internally, not very satisfied.

The reason he chose to play after Bai Ye was to put on a gratitude performance for his fans, but his luck in this duel didn't seem very good. Although Onira's two follower selections succeeded every time, he neither drew [Alice] nor acquired any Life Card like Golden Ship to search for Alice, leaving Shen Sui without the means to put on this gratitude performance.

Not to mention [Alice], he didn't even see the Golden Ship or any other Life Card that could search for Alice. It seems today's luck isn't willing to let Shen Sui perform something beyond humane.

Of course, if it were only [Alice], Shen Sui wouldn't be able to do such a performance either.

"Activate the effect of [Loli Dragon Princess Aula] in the graveyard." Shen Sui said, "Once per turn, send the top three follower cards of my deck to the graveyard, return one [Dragon] follower on my field to my hand, and then restore the corresponding Soul Points for that follower's star level."
