Tang Qian said, "Isn’t it a bit much to use Su Daji right now?"
Wen Jiang whispered, "Those new cards give a bad feeling."
Yes, a bad feeling.
Not from the Spirit Card Master, but from the cards themselves.
Hearing Wen Jiang say this, Tang Qian subconsciously asked, "Dangerous?"
Wen Jiang replied, "Not dangerous, but bizarre."
Without hesitation, Tang Qian said, "Fine, you use Su Daji."
At last, Mount Flower locked in Su Daji as their final card.
The barrage of comnts, which had been incessantly mocking Mount Flower for underestimating their opponents and predicting they were about to be thrashed, suddenly paused in a strange way.
[Damn, they’re using the new cards! In that case, I’m willing to believe they have a strategy.]
[Can the new cards really hold off Maria? I don’t buy it!]
[Setting everything else aside, isn’t this fox gorgeous? When will the rchandise be released? I can’t wait to buy it!]
[I’m so curious, why isn’t this fox called sothing like ’Seven-Tailed Fox’ and instead has a human na, Su Daji? It’s weird.]
[Damn, damn, damn, I’m so curious about the abilities of these new cards! Especially those from the Crying Angels Card Set; they look so powerful.]
On the field, Crying Angels couldn’t figure out Su Daji’s skills. Suspecting they were charm-related, they decided to pick a Defense Angel.
It’s worth ntioning that this type of card is common among the Sanctuary Empire Association and very powerful. It’s available for use by any Card Association within the Sanctuary Empire but not by associations from other countries.
The Defense Angel, as its na implies, is a blonde angel holding a gigantic shield. Her role is not only to defend but also to grant Card Spirits a certain resistance to charm.
This concept of charm is unique to the Fallen Angel Card Set from the West. However, seeing Su Daji’s fox form, combined with the current cultural concept of foxes seducing people, led to the natural assumption that Su Daji was a charm-type card.
Mount Flower Card Set: Damage Dealer: Seven-Star Butterfly; Support: Ghost Wood; Control: River Maiden; Assassin: Clueless Da; Flex: Su Daji (Wen Jiang).
Crying Angels Card Set: Damage Dealer: Singing Alice; Support: Crying Maria; Assassin: Succubus Ducana. They substituted their Control card for Defense Angel and filled the flex spot with Hell’s Prayer Ho.
This combination seed to lack explosive power, suggesting that abandoning a Control card was significant. However, Mount Flower imdiately realized that the stacked negative effects from these cards must be incredibly annoying, as this was a signature strategy of the Crying Angels Association.
This could even be inferred from the nas alone.
Singing Alice was a petite, red-haired beauty dressed in a typical Sanctuary Academy-style blazer and pleated skirt, posed as if she were singing.
Succubus Ducana was scantily clad—an appearance that would definitely have been censored in Wen Jiang’s era. She had long, wavy hair, seductive red lips, and two devilish horns on her forehead. Her face bore a captivating expression; it was a card that could arouse sinful thoughts rely by its appearance.
This world was certainly free.
It was indeed outrageous that this wasn’t censored.
Hell’s Prayer Ho was strange. It depicted a man in a suit playing a piano covered in bloodstains, his hands and even his exposed bones dripping with fresh blood.
Playing this piano seed excruciatingly painful.
In contrast, the Defense Angel card was bright and seed out of place among these other four cards.
The competition was about to begin. Everyone summoned their Card Spirits, and when the opponents’ five Card Spirits appeared, Wen Jiang’s eyes suddenly narrowed.
Since this match featured several new cards, the comntator didn’t fully understand their abilities either and could only analyze their potential functions based on their positions and nas.
Cyrus first analyzed the Yunxia Card Set. "Su Daji is depicted as a fox—a seven-tailed fox, and so beautiful, a bit like a snow fox. What could a fox’s ability be? It should be enticent. I don’t think it’s on the sa level as that damn Moon Palace Card Set."
Cyrus’s attitude toward the Moon Palace Card Set had always been peculiar.
He looked down on Yunxia. However, Yunxia’s release of such cards had imdiately disrupted the current card ga scene, which greatly annoyed Cyrus, though he couldn’t say so directly.
The strength of the cards was evident. For soone from the Sanctuary Empire like him, making disparaging remarks would seem petty.
Speaking of Crying Angels, he beca more talkative. "Alice clearly relies on her singing for damage output, but it’s unknown whether she specializes in area-of-effect or single-target attacks. Du Kana’s looks, oh, absolutely stunning! She must be a dangerous demon who could take your life when you’re utterly captivated! As for Prayer Ho, judging by the piano, I feel it’s ant to enhance other cards, especially when Maria cries while praying. With this new card added, could it be there to replace Maria, or to strengthen her?"
"Defense Angel is standard and doesn’t require much explanation; it was likely chosen to counter Su Daji," he added.
Cyrus spoke with excitent, "Well then, let’s see what kind of lesson the new Crying Angels card set will teach their opponents! Of course, I must sincerely remind everyone that Crying Angels cards often induce discomfort, so try not to listen for too long."
In the arena, as the match began, Wen Jiang suddenly uttered, "You reap what you sow; their doom is sealed."
Chen Runyu and the others were shocked. "Wen Jiang, what do you an?"
Wen Jiang lowered his gaze. "I’ll tell you when the match is over."
Ruan Chunen nervously warned, "Crying Maria is out!"
This was the card they were most anxious about. Only those who had personally experienced it knew how terrifying a card spoken of by so many could truly be. Although Ruan Chunen and the others trusted Wen Jiang, they were still frightened.
Indeed, once Crying Maria appeared, being a continuous negative effect card, she didn’t need to target their side’s cards at all. From the mont she entered the field, the grand A-Level Card Spirit hovered in mid-air. The opulently dressed Maria had already begun to cry, softly humming a ballad.
The ballad sounded sowhat like a folk song from a small Sanctuary town; the specific lyrics were indistinct. While the tune could be considered beautiful, as the humming began, a repressive atmosphere started to affect every Spirit Card Master present.
Listening to the ballad’s lyrics, Wen Jiang’s expression gradually darkened.
[Kaputo’s path is filled with fragrant flowers; I run happily, breathing in the scent of spring.]
[Mama, oh Mama, why do you weep there at the end...]
[Don’t cry, don’t cry, Maria is doing very well.]
[Today’s harvest was poor, yet my little brother ate until he was full, so very full...]
[Father dances joyfully by the bonfire, while distant Spirit Card Masters smile...]
Zero Egg suddenly shivered. "Host, your expression is terrifying."
It wasn’t just Zero Egg who noticed Wen Jiang’s grim expression; the others saw it too.
This was the first ti in all their competitions that Wen Jiang had shown such an obvious emotion.
