Playing cards, I am your ancestor!-Chapter 364: The Opponent Chose Hou Yi

"Helena."

Johnny was also thrilled: "A genius girl who can make cards. Look at the A-Rank card she’s using right now, it’s going to be our Divine Punishment’s upcoming main card, and she made it. She has the powerful strength to match it, and I’m really lucky!"

Mr. Di had a faint smile on his lips.

But his gaze on the screen towards the girl was profound and dangerous.

"Helena..."

Even saying her name carried a hint of danger.

He was the Blood Emperor.

Upon realizing that Karin could not possibly handle Helena.

The Blood Emperor did something against his own nature.

He came to the Sanctuary in secret from the Celestial Maiden.

He knew his strength would alert those old folks, so he suppressed himself to prevent anyone from noticing.

But he couldn’t wait any longer.

Because back when the incident in Ceylon City happened, this was the first time someone could break through the constraints and remember his name.

It hadn’t happened for many years.

He couldn’t remember clearly; his identity had been lost for too long.

"She’s A-Rank?"

Johnny nodded: "Yes, she’s an excellent A-Rank Spirit Card Master."

Di Jizhou let out a low chuckle.

An A-Rank Spirit Card Master couldn’t cause such a big commotion.

As expected, Helena is a Spirit Card Master with significant issues.

"Interesting, if there’s a chance, I would also like to meet such an outstanding Card Maker."

"After the exchange meeting ends, it should be possible," Johnny was not unwilling, but thinking about Helena’s somewhat arrogant personality, he was slightly hesitant: "But Mr. Di, Helena is just a young girl, with strong talent in card making, and has a bit of a temper."

The implication was that she wasn’t easy to deal with.

After all, you can’t offend investors, and if he wanted to meet Helena, it would really be hard to say.

But Helena is also a hard nut to crack, so Johnny could only tactfully express that Helena wouldn’t easily cooperate; she might not necessarily want to meet investors.

"I understand." Di Jizhou smiled: "A smart girl will have her own pride."

He remembered seeing Helena before.

Although she had to bow her head for the moment, the rebelliousness hidden in those eyes couldn’t be faked.

She is a person with a very proud character.

Johnny organized his materials: "Mr. Di, this way please."

-

After Wen Jiang finished handling Gloria, the other competitors already had a sense of fear towards Wen Jiang.

The Divine Punishment Association itself was a dominant force in the Sanctuary with strong oppressiveness.

Now Helena’s appearance seemed to deepen this shadow.

With such a strong competitor from Divine Punishment, the other associations would never have a chance to rise.

So when the list for the second round came out, the person chosen to compete against Helena had a subtle and stiff smile.

And the others were even more surprised.

Because it was from the Shaliye Association.

Shaliye, the undisputed second-largest association in the Sanctuary,

Moreover, it was the old association where Wen Jiang used to compete in the A-Rank Group.

This time, it was even more coincidental.

Zero Egg also saw it on the livestream: [Hey, isn’t this our old rival?]

Calling them an old rival might be an overstatement, but back in the day, Shaliye was directly wiped out by Mount Flower, creating the fastest failure in a match world record, which people still talk about enthusiastically.

And this person was one of Shaliye’s five-member team’s output players.

Luer Carter.

Back then, Shaliye lost so miserably that even though the Temple of the Gods later suffered a similar fate against Mount Flower, it couldn’t mitigate Shaliye’s own missteps.

The competition within the Holy Hall Association had always been fierce.

The competition among internal A-Rank Spirit Card Masters was even harsher.

Upon returning to the country, four out of the five competitors directly withdrew, not completely though.

Instead, like Luer, they were relegated by the league.

Being able to compete in world leagues before, now the most they could do was play in other matches.

Luer even directly withdrew from team events to participate in individual matches.

As an output player, he had an advantage in individual matches, but the events of the past still cast a shadow over him.

Even now, many fans from other associations would still mock him for it.

After all, they created the most shameful match in Shaliye’s history.

Julia whispered to Wen Jiang: "Luer Carter, the individual output from Shaliye. He used to play team matches and was a world runner-up, you—"

"I know." Wen Jiang smiled, cutting her off: "That match where Shaliye lost to Yunxia was very impressive, truly breathtaking."

Julia: "..."

Despite being a member of the Sanctuary, Julia also felt ashamed about that match.

She rarely spoke for Shaliye, saying: "There’s nothing they could do, after all, they encountered Wen Jiang at his peak. Oh, right, Wen Jiang, you know, right? That genius player from Yunxia, last year still A-Rank, and she’s already started participating in S-Rank matches this year, you..."

Julia thought of Wen Jiang’s performance in the A-Rank Group just now and praised her begrudgingly: "I think you’re not any worse than her."

"I’m not worse than her?" Wen Jiang’s eyes subtly shifted, and the sarcasm in her voice was almost undeniable: "No one can compare to me."

Julia: "..."

No matter how shameless, those words were really hard to respond to.

Wen Jiang, that competitor, at least left many famous moments in world matches and is currently shining in S-Rank.

Helena is still just an A-Rank, yet she’s so arrogant.

Arrogance is a good thing, but excessive pride can easily lead to problems.

Julia didn’t know what to say as Wen Jiang already stood up, chin slightly raised: "I’ll take care of him quickly."

On the other side, Luer felt even more oppressed.

He initially thought that facing a Divine Punishment competitor wouldn’t be too humiliating, but Helena’s presence nearly made him freeze.

What the hell.

Upon seeing Helena, what came to his mind wasn’t that she was from Divine Punishment.

But strangely, he thought of last year’s Wen Jiang.

Because he had directly competed against Wen Jiang and experienced her oppressiveness, he actually felt a similar pressure from this Helena.

Perhaps Helena was just too strong.

He had to admit, he couldn’t defeat Gloria in ten seconds.

But in this match, he couldn’t lose as miserably as Gloria did.

Otherwise, could he continue to mingle here?

Even being able to participate in this exchange meeting was already an opportunity given by Shaliye.

So, Luer’s initial thoughts were somewhat wicked.

He knew the Divine Punishment Association wanted to build Helena’s reputation and that they would consistently have Helena use that card of the Flame Dragon.

And the strength of the Flame Dragon was undeniable; using old cards might not be an effective strategy at the moment.

Thus, Luer thought of a card.

When the match began.

As soon as Luer chose the card, the entire scene was in an uproar.

Even Wen Jiang paused for a moment.

Then lifted a quirky smile at the corners of the mouth.

Because what the opponent chose was Yunxia’s card.

That card she had created herself, a strong control output.

Hou Yi.
