Chapter 003: Black Mist

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

He is unwilling to accept this; it is a card game showdown. If he fails, he will lose this rare domain card, which is something he cannot bear.

At this moment, Zhou Qing could not understand why Su Li, this bastard, actually possessed a second card. He had used the little white fox to attract his attention, and at some unknown time, had quietly released this beautiful girl card.

Zhou Qing only has one card. His financial situation is much better than Su Li's, but he did not purchase the card in advance. Instead, he deliberately waited until the certified card master received the free card before going to buy cards that could complement each other.

You see how happily he is smiling; he probably hasn't noticed Su Miaohan, right? Su Li speculated

Based on this 【Black Mist】 card, Zhou Qing can completely center a dark-themed deck around it. During battles, once the black mist envelops the area, it directly occupies the most advantageous terrain while simultaneously diminishing the opponent's strength

At this moment, Zhou Qing had already stealthily approached within five meters of Su Li. Observing Su Li's actions, he thought to himself that this kid must have been stunned by his own display, as he still had the time to manage that silly fox, preparing to use it as a projectile to throw at someone

Zhou Qing chose the second method without hesitation, weaving through the black mist, equipped with "night vision," his line of sight unobstructed. He saw Su Li standing in place, the white card in his hand glowing, as a pure white little fox was summoned.

Zhou Qing was not defeated; instead, he immediately reacted, rolling his body towards the denser part of the black mist while simultaneously activating his card skills

He continued to speak in comfort: "As the saying goes, there are no useless cards, only useless card masters"

Rank: Bronze II

Brother, do not be discouraged. I drew the "Toilet Cleaning" card. Due to my impoverished family background, I was in utter despair. However, the gatekeeper introduced me to a job cleaning toilets. After half a month of early mornings and late nights, I have already saved a considerable amount of money. The voice of the black-haired, crew-cut youth was rough, and his physique was robust

This is a domain card... a young card master said enviously

From a distance, I saw Su Li enter the Kashi Building, and immediately came to the entrance to stake out. The two of them had a past grievance and had fought fiercely, leaving each other with bruised faces.

After leaving the card master building, Zhou Qing immediately found a card master to conduct a test

However, Su Li remained calm, standing in place, as Su Miaohan had already swooped down from above, holding a coldly gleaming dagger in her hand, the time of which she had no knowledge of.

An unknown force attacked him

The previous graduating class of card masters has passed, and this current class consists entirely of newly appointed card masters, who possess little to no card storage, let alone rare cards such as domain cards.

Zhou Qing slightly crouched down, exerting force through her legs as she propelled herself forward, raising her fist in preparation to strike.

The first method is to summon a bat party. The bats summoned in the black mist venue are more than capable of easily dealing with Su Li

The "Black Mist" is merely a Bronze Tier 2 card, while the Bat Party is more for interference and lacks strong combat capabilities, ultimately being directly crushed by the Bronze Tier 3 Su Miaohan.

A significant stir has been created at Liangcheng Third Middle School

Once a newly promoted card master is engulfed by the black mist, even if their mental strength extends outward, they can only barely discern the vague surroundings within a radius of three meters, while simultaneously being continuously drained of their power by the black mist, finding themselves in a difficult predicament

The so-called white cards are cards without ranks, most of which lack combat power. Even if they do possess some, it is still inferior to the strength of a card master themselves. How could they possibly inflict a heavy blow without the card master reacting?

Bang

The initiator Su Li returned home and took out the three cards in hand

1 The Night Devours: The dark mist will gradually absorb the power of living beings within the dark mist

Zhou Qingfa let out a painful groan, the bat party had not yet launched its attack, when Su Miaohan emerged from the shadows and kicked him behind the knee of his left leg

Su Li naturally had no reason to refuse this duel, as he needed more cards

It is a common phenomenon for card masters to engage in decisive battles at the cost of cards, but for these novice card masters, it is quite novel. Moreover, stakes are raised, as a rare domain card may be lost and claimed by the victor

... ...

"How infuriating, why did I draw the 'Close the Door' card!" A young boy, filled with despair, clenched his fists tightly, tears streaming down his face uncontrollably

Overview: The black mist swirls, it is a party for the bats

Bat Party

In fact, when Zhou Qing's card took effect, he almost burst out laughing; it was simply tailor-made for the Shadow Assassin. Zhou Qing was sending him a card.

The little white fox fluffed up its fur and kept burrowing into Su Li's embrace

The blades glimmered, and these bats were instantly sliced into pieces.

If Su Li were rational enough, he would not have agreed to the duel with a white card, but to Zhou Qing's surprise, Su Li actually nodded in agreement

According to the rules, this card belongs to me now

Certainly, to capture the thief, one must first capture the king. If the card master loses consciousness or is directly killed, the cards they used will also lose their power. Targeting the opponent's card master directly is also a common method of combat

The battle was about to begin, and Zhou Qing let out a cold laugh, pinching a bronze-colored card between two fingers

The young card master did not deceive me; this card indeed had an effect. He deliberately manipulated the actions of the little fox, which, in its foolish cuteness, perhaps attracted Zhou Qing's attention, while he secretly tossed a bronze card behind him.

Using cards, maintaining cards, and utilizing the power of cards all require the support of the spirit gem from the card master. Newly promoted bronze-level card masters can directly use silver cards, and may even need to expend more mental energy to maintain stability.

The card continuously emits black mist, creating a field of black mist. Within the black mist, all non-dark units experience a reduction in their senses, while allied units gain "night vision"

He then suffered a merciless beating from Su Miaohan, his physical skills were completely crushed, and he ultimately fell to the ground, bruised and battered.

Zhou Qing is very proud. Yesterday, he successfully condensed the Spirit Jade, and today he became a certified card master. He also drew a second-tier bronze card, making his journey as a card master very smooth

Shadow's Thorn · Su Miaohan

Nowadays, a considerable number of card masters have emerged, and the three schools provide battlefields for the card masters to compete.

Su Li fell silent

At this moment, due to the emergence of the "Black Mist" domain card, this battleground has already attracted the attention of several card masters.

Black Mist

He fell heavily to the ground. The spirit of the card master was strong, and his will was resilient. Zhou Qing immediately endured the pain and sprang up from a half-squat position, his pupils rapidly scanning, but he only saw Su Li holding the little fox in place

Awoo

When Zhou Qing drew this card, he was filled with immense joy, as the domain card is one of the most valuable types among the cards! It can even be said to be the core of a deck.

Upon seeing Su Li walk out of the Card Master Building holding a white card, he immediately intercepted her and initiated a card gambling duel

Continue to strengthen the cards

Suddenly, Zhou Qing felt a darkness before his eyes, and immediately after, his whole body was sent flying backward. A footprint appeared on his face, and two teeth, stained with blood, fell out.

The little fox, feeling a chilling atmosphere all around, immediately became agitated and screamed in fright, burying its head between Su Li's feet and trembling with its rear end raised.

Lost Little Fox

Type: Field

A cloud of black mist suddenly erupted from the center of the venue, spreading throughout the entire area within a few breaths.

The second option is to throw a punch directly. Considering the previous grievances, it is only natural that a punch to the flesh would be more satisfying.

Zhou Qing traversed through the black mist, the cards in his hand flying into the air, suspended there like a black portal, continuously inhaling and exhaling the black mist

The young card master once said: "You are quite lucky; among these more than one thousand cards, there are only ten rare domain cards."

Su Li and Zhou Qing arrived at an empty venue

The duel of card masters is naturally not just about drawing a card and playing a card; in most cases, one must also engage in battle. Otherwise, having a physique that matches one's mental strength would be a waste.

2 Bat Party: The Black Mist Surges, Summoning Bats

Black Mist

Hehehe... In the midst of the black mist, the laughter of Zhou Qing echoed.

A novice card master is absolutely unable to unleash the true power of silver cards, and even the act of using them is quite difficult; he is already at the end of his rope... Zhou Qing calmly analyzed.

Zhou Qing couldn't help but almost burst into laughter

Among the more than one thousand cards, the only silver card has yet to be drawn by anyone. How could that bastard Su Li be so lucky?

What is going on?" Zhou Qing gritted his teeth, his pupils showing bloodshot veins. After confirming that there were no other creatures in the black mist, he fixed his gaze firmly on the small white fox.

The master of the card lost consciousness, the black mist dissipated, and Su Li caught the falling "black mist," smiling as he did so

Effect

At this moment, many card players are engaged in duels, but these are merely simple drills, rather than the high-stakes card battles like the one he had with Zhou Qing.

On the other end, a blonde beauty held a card that shimmered with light; this was a magic card capable of continuously consuming mental energy to focus multiple times.

Ah ~ ''

Kneeling on the ground, Zhou Qing suppressed the pain and swung his fist backward, but struck only air. Su Miaohan reappeared in front of him and landed a punch on Zhou Qing's abdomen, causing him to spit out a mouthful of bitter water

The black mist swirled, several bats flapped their wings, their eyes flickering with red light. Instead of attempting to search for the vanished Su Miaohan, they charged straight at Su Li.

... ...

Damn it! Zhou Qing was somewhat frantic, having lost his reason, with his pupils blood-red as he lunged at Su Li

"Close the door!" the young man shouted.

Skills

He picked up the little fox at his feet, and the little fox squirmed in his arms, its two ears standing up high, looking very cute and silly

A domain card

The appearance of Su Miaohan was fleeting, as the skill "Shadow Veil" was activated, merging into the darkness

Victory is within grasp

Su Li is merely a newly certified card master, lacking even the ability to fight with cards. This battle is destined to be a complete victory for Zhou Qing.

Could it be that I misjudged it? Was it actually a silver card?

The two individuals proceeded to the battlefield

Zhou Qing began to exercise caution, navigating through the black mist. Instead of launching an attack, he utilized his mental power to manipulate the [Black Mist] card, initiating the Bat Party.

Currently, Zhou Qing has two ways to defeat Su Li

In an instant, several blazing fireballs erupted, and the card master’s apprentice on the opposite side was clumsily dodging while riding a dog summoned by the cards, screaming "Dame! Dame!"

A young card master held a glowing bronze card, which transformed into a massive blue wolf, charging in with the howling wind, while the opponent simultaneously summoned a large bear, and a fierce battle ensued

This is a battle of card gambling! someone exclaimed

The simultaneous use of two cards is of no concern, even if Su Miaohan's appearance is discovered by Zhou Qing
