Chapter 227 Top [-] of KC Entertainment Grand Prix
The second day of the opening of the Duel Monster theme park.

"After a day of fierce competition, the first sixteen people who have collected all ten qualification certificates will be the top sixteen contestants in the final group of this KC Entertainment Grand Prix!"

Guiping stood on the stage with a microphone and spoke. After yesterday's fierce duel, in the afternoon near evening, the last spot for the top sixteen contestants was determined, and the whole day today was devoted to competing for The quarterfinals after the quarterfinals.

"Now, let us invite the top sixteen contestants of this competition with warm applause!"

Under Guiping's greeting, nearly [-] audience members applauded enthusiastically. After Guiping retreated to the edge of the stage, sixteen cylindrical platforms rose from the ground in the center of the stage.

Among the top sixteen contestants, some are familiar to everyone, and some are unfamiliar to everyone.

The first one, obviously still a child, was wearing a silver-white children's suit, with beautiful blue eyes and shoulder-length silver hair. — Ed Phoenix

The second person is also a teenager, with a light red coat, black lining, light blue trousers, a complete set of casual clothes, and the most eye-catching thing is that he has brown and khaki double hair jellyfish hairstyle. ——Ten Generations of Youcheng

The third one was another child, but different from the above two little boys, she was a lovely girl, who had a duel with Youyi in the plant venue and was invited by him. ——Sixteen Nights Tea

The fourth place, he is the last child in the top [-], and in terms of his identity, he is the younger brother of the chairman of the "Qigu Entertainment Group" that manages duel monsters in Europe. After all, he has purple hair Tie. — Rainn Wilson
The fifth place is an adult from now on, and she is a duelist who uses a deck based on her own clan and ethnic group, and she is also one of the few female duelists with extremely strong strength. — Isis Ishtar
The sixth place is the chairman of the European region who received an e-mail from the president of Youyi, who came from duels with easy victories all the way. — Chigu Lloyd
The rest are the Three Musketeers of Zendoma, the Rafeel trio who are now the staff of the orphanage, Lishid who accompanied Isis, whose deck composition is mostly trap cards, and the disguised The masked man, the game's grandfather Shuangroku Muto who thought that others would not recognize him, Rebecca, the granddaughter of Professor Arthur Hopkins, a good friend of Shuangliu's father, and a man from Asia wearing a cheongsam and a steamed stuffed bun Hairstyle Vivienne Wang...and more.

"In the final of the KC Entertainment Grand Prix, we will divide it into four competition areas, divided by English letters A, B, C, and D."

"Under each division, there are two group matches. The winner of a group will have a duel with the winner of the group in the same division, which is the so-called 'final four promotion match' after the quarterfinals, and so on. "

When Guiping introduced the grouping rules of the final, the large electronic screen behind him lit up, showing the distribution and combination map of the top [-] finalists.

"The sixteen players, and their initial opponents, will be randomly assigned by the computer."

After Guiping finished speaking, after waiting for a few seconds, the results of the distribution of the first group in Division A came out.

"Oh? The duel of the first group has been assigned! There will be a duelist named 'Yujo Judai' vs a duelist named 'Ed Phoenix'. Please also invite the two duelists who have been called to step forward .”

After being instructed, Judai in casual clothes and Ed in a children's suit walked out of their respective positions.

Looking at the opponent walking out from their side, the two couldn't help but stared at each other in bewilderment. They didn't expect that in the first match of their finals, their opponent would be the same age standing on their left/right side a moment ago!
"Your match will start at 10 o'clock in [-] minutes, and the duel location will be set on the grass near the roller coaster ride. At that time, there will be staff to take you there."

After speaking to the two teenagers who seemed to be about the same age as himself, Guiping turned his head and said to the remaining fourteen duelists:
"As for the other players, you can go back to the players' lounge to watch the game, or you can just sit and watch the game in the seats prepared for you in the auditorium."

After finishing everything, the entire gymnasium fell into discussion again. Based on the duel seen yesterday, which one of the sixteen people had the greatest chance of winning the final championship was analyzed.

At eight o'clock, Judai and Ed were taken to the designated place by the staff, and on the grass, there was an unmanned camera that shot from all angles, and the nearly [-] spectators far away in the stadium could see through it. Super clear viewing of the duel through the virtual big screen.

"Please shuffle each other's decks!"

Haima's subordinate, Uncle Isano, who used to be the only referee in Duel City, has come to act as the final referee of the KC Entertainment Grand Prix this time.

After being instructed by the referee, the two handed over their decks to each other to shuffle and cut. The smile on Judai's face made people feel comfortable, while Ed, just like his children's suit, was calm and indifferent, just like an adult.

"Your name is Ed, right? I hope we can have an interesting duel!"

When handing over the opponent's deck, Judai greeted him with a smile, and although Ed was still the same indifferent, as the saying goes, you don't hit a smiley face with your hand, so he hummed softly.

"The duelists, please return to their respective positions for a duel!"

The two returned to their original positions and stood up, unfolded the duel board, inserted the shuffled deck into the duel board, and the first duel of the quarter-finals promotion match began.

"Duel!"

Ed: 4000LP
Ten generations: 4000LP
"First attack for me, draw a card."

Seeing that the system judged him to be the first striker, Ed drew a card from his own deck, and after looking at the starting hand, he quickly played the card with calculation:

"Defense call 'D3'."

As Ed played the card, in the next second, a barking sound full of electronic and mechanical sounds sounded on the grass. A mechanical dog with a black body, no facial features, and only a pink face marked with the letter D. Running to Ed, he sat on the ground obediently.

"The effect of D3, I discard up to two cards from my hand, and I can special summon the most discarded 'D3' from the deck, hand or graveyard."

As he said that, Ed directly maximized the effect, threw his two hands into the graveyard, and then specially summoned two identical mechanical dogs from the deck to guard the field.

"Then activate the field magic 'The Clock Tower of Hell' from the hand card."

Open the side grid of the duel disk, put the field magic card into it, and there was a "rumbling" vibration sound for a while, and in a burst of shaking, a clock tower that looked dark even in the daytime at this moment came from behind Ed. Rising from the ground, covering his whole body in a layer of darkness.

"Finally, cover the two cards in your hand, and the round ends."

As Ed played all the remaining cards in his hand, his first turn arrangement ended.

[Ed: 4000LP, hand card: 0, monster area: D3×3, magic trap area: Gaifu×2, field area: Hell’s Clock Tower]

"My turn, draw a card!"

Different from Ed's plainness, the coming of the tenth generation's round instantly gave people an atmosphere that this is what a normal duel should have.

Looking at the cards in his hand, Judai suddenly smiled and opened his eyes, and said to Ed on the opposite side:
"Ed! Meet my card! The hero inherited from Master!"

A hero inherited from Master...?
"I activate the magic card 'Fung...' directly from the hand card"

Just wondering, seeing that Judai on the opposite side had to go through the main stage of the fusion summon, Ed immediately interrupted:
"The effect of 'Hero of Destiny, Gun Drawer' in the Graveyard activates. After this card is sent to the Graveyard, I can revive him from the Graveyard during the preparation phase of the next turn."
