Legendary Card Craftsman

Chapter 27: A half step ahead is a genius, a step ahead is a tornado

"Murder in an illusion? This guy's tactics are a bit dirty." An operator commented.

"It's strange to be surprised by something you haven't seen before. Tianjiao always has a strange personality. He was able to create two cards, one blue and one purple, in just half a day. Do you think he doesn't have the ability to crush them directly? He's just playing around. As the old saying goes, being half a step ahead is a genius, being one step ahead is a madman."

"Then our great genius must at least be a tornado, right?"

“That’s the truth.”

Listening to the operators' discussions, Zhou Chuan smiled awkwardly.

He actually wanted to say that compared to the smirking guy, the nympho girl, and the legal lolita, he was still very normal.

But when he thought of his set of hell cards, the words came to his lips but he retreated. He asked himself in his heart, it seems that he is a bit perverted.

"You really won." At this time, Yu Zhouzhou came over with a meaningful smile on his face: "Don't worry that I will look down on you. It's a common operation to win by temporarily upgrading with plug-ins."

"Haha." Zhou Chuan smiled coldly and said word by word: "System, help me check Yu Zhouzhou's favorability towards me!"

"Hey, hey, hey! You can't afford to play with me, right? Which serious protagonist would activate the system when he disagrees with someone?"

Yu Zhouzhou jumped three feet high and hid behind a tree at a speed invisible to the naked eye.

"me."

Zhou Chuan pointed at himself and smiled, thinking: As expected, to deal with this kind of middle school girl, you have to use magic to defeat magic.

He actually has another trick up his sleeve.

"You two have a really good relationship." Gao Chun walked over with his head hung dejectedly, with the word "unhappy" written all over his face.

"How is it?" Yu Zhouzhou asked without any tact.

"I'm dead." Gao Chun said with a wry smile, "I was originally planning to compete with Brother Chuan in the finals, but I didn't expect to be 'fired' here."

"A blessing in disguise. The college entrance examination is in two weeks, so it's good to have more time to prepare." Zhou Chuan comforted.

"See you in the examination room." Gao Chun forced a smile and left the venue under the guidance of the operator.

“Even Gaochun is eliminated?”

Yu Zhouzhou frowned slightly, feeling a little nervous.

She was able to pass the semi-finals, partly because of her strength, but more importantly, she was lucky enough. The opponents she met in the two rounds were all from Baihu City, so she had more information and was easier to target.

If we really talk about the level, none of the contestants who made it to the re-examination were much weaker than her, they were all about the same.

If this is the case in the semi-finals, the hope of making it to the finals is even slimmer.

But then she thought, according to the setting of the novel, her identity was probably just "a student accompanying the prince to study", and it was probably due to luck that she was able to enter the finals. If she expected a higher ranking, it would be a bit "overreaching".

Thinking of this, she nodded again, looking calm and convinced.

Zhou Chuan did not have as rich senses as hers. At this moment, all his attention was focused on the ghost-whispering owl high in the sky.

"Congratulations on your promotion."

Zhao Xuanhua, standing on the broad back of the Ghost-Whispering Owl, mouthed these words, then smiled knowingly. Led by the bird, she was instantly submerged in the vast night.

Zhao Peng, who was originally quite amiable, also noticed this scene. His eyebrows were furrowed in a rather comical way, which added a sense of majesty without even being angry.

But two seconds later, he reacted and calmed down again, becoming the happy "tour guide" again.

Zhou Chuan, who watched the whole scene, pondered for a while, then sat down in the waiting area as if nothing had happened, then took out his cell phone and started typing away.

"Ayan, how is it? Did you pass the semi-finals?" Zhou Chuan asked in the Emperor Penguin.

Then the next moment, there was a buzzing sound, and Cao Yan's chat box appeared on the screen: "Of course, it's just that kind of crooked melon and cracked date, sister, I can easily solve it."

"oh?"

Zhou Chuan casually added a certain host's emoticon pack "Really? I don't believe it", and couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

Is Miss Cao from the parallel world so strong? She passed the competition that Gao Chun couldn't pass "so easily"? Isn't this a bit too unrealistic

Three doubts arose in Zhou Chuan's mind, but Cao Yan replied the next moment:

"Hey, hey, hey, you don't think that our Demon Wars also use the 'two-step approach', do you? We only have half the number of you, so accordingly, we just need to win the round of crafting the 'weapon cards'."

"Hey, you know what, anyone who makes it to the semi-finals must be able to take a beating. The guy on the opposite side took three full hits from me before he fell. He's really awesome!"

Zhou Chuan pondered for a while and then tapped: "Isn't that a card game?"

"Yeah." Cao Yan immediately sent a voice message: "But will this delay me from KOing him?"

"It's okay, Sister Yan is awesome."

After typing this last sentence, Zhou Chuan put away his phone, looked up at the starry sky at a 45-degree angle, and felt increasingly lonely.

In this messed up parallel world, are there any normal people left

Unexpectedly, Zhao Peng came over with a smile and said to the people in the waiting area: "Congratulations to all the students for advancing to the finals. On behalf of the Long Province Card Makers Association, I wish you all the best in the subsequent competitions. I also sincerely invite you to come to our department for gold-level card maker certification after the college entrance examination."

At this point, he subconsciously glanced at Zhou Chuan, and then said with an unchanged smile: "Then, let me briefly introduce the situation of the finals to everyone."

"First of all, unlike the previous three rounds of competition that were held every other week, due to the upcoming college entrance examination, and in order for all students to have sufficient time to review, after discussion among all parties, the finals have been scheduled to be held in three days at Dahei Mountain in the north."

"For this purpose, our department will send operators to escort all students to the inn near Mount Daihei in advance."

"In addition, according to the latest documents, the format of this final is likely to be a deck battle, and the deck range is the cards created by each player in the preliminary round, preliminaries, and semi-finals."

"In order to help the students recover quickly, our partner, the Zhao Group, has provided a large amount of mental recovery potions. You can collect them later with your card maker certification."

After that, he bowed slightly and laughed, "Okay, classmates, I have to go back to the association to report. We will meet again in the future. I wish you all good results in the upcoming competitions and college entrance examinations!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Peng was swept into the air by a speeding black shadow and soon disappeared.

After distributing the spirit recovery potions, the operators retreated on their mounts Lingka, leaving only two or three to receive the newcomers.

"Are these the players who advanced to the semi-finals in Long Province?"

More than half an hour passed before a powerful voice suddenly pierced the night sky and came over.

Everyone looked up subconsciously and saw a bearded strong man in a combat vest standing with his arms around the back of a giant falcon with a wingspan of more than ten meters.

"Yes, this is their identification, look."

The burly man took a thick stack of documents from the operator, glanced at them briefly, and then waved his hand and said, "Okay, everyone come up."
