Yu-Gi-Oh!: The journey of the Duel King from scratch!

As a new consortium that has only emerged in Sakura Country in recent years, the Zaizen family gives people the feeling of being more like a speculative upstart. It is also because of this that the Zaizen family, which is seriously lacking in first-class duelists, does not actually have a very high status in the upper class society.

Because duels represent everything in this world, as the eldest daughter of the Zaizen family, Zaizen Shion decided to debut as a duel idol in order to realize her ambitions and aspirations!

In addition to her stunning appearance and outstanding dueling talent, her smart and quick mind makes her far superior to her peers!

Different from her gentle, lively, playful and cute appearance on the stage, the real Zaizen Shion is a precise egoist. In order to make her family stronger, the sixteen-year-old Zaizen Shion has already hidden her schemes under her cute and gentle appearance.

As far as this public performance is concerned, although the external publicity claimed that three lucky fans would be randomly selected, the truth was that during the time when Zaizen Shion was on stage performing, the staff of the consortium family backstage, under her instructions, had already used unmanned cameras to thoroughly scan and check all the audience members who came to watch the performance.

Relying on the most advanced facial recognition technology, it didn't take long for the staff of the Zaizen family to easily find the person that the eldest lady had specifically instructed to pay attention to.

"Miss, just as you said before, the target person has really appeared!" After contacting Zaizen Shion, who was hosting the lottery in the center of the stage, through wireless communication, the chief bodyguard of the Zaizen family immediately reported the results of the unmanned camera investigation to her.

"In addition to Duel King Li Youfeng and Rose Princess Izayoi Kaoru, we unexpectedly discovered the current world champion Ed Phoenix!"

"In addition, the third young master of the Manjomu Group also seems to have arrived at the event site, but judging from his every move, it seems like he suddenly had a seizure. Um, so, do we need to send medical personnel to check on his condition?"

"You know, the overall strength of the Manjomu Group is much stronger than our Zaizen family. If you can take this opportunity to establish a good relationship with them in advance, it will definitely be beneficial to you, young lady!"

"Epileptic seizure?"

Her beautiful eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and Zai Qian Shiyin looked calmly in the direction of the unmanned camera. As expected, Wan Zhang Muzhun's behavior at this time seemed extremely strange to others. While he was constantly waving his fists to attack the air, he was constantly uttering a fragrant sound from his mouth.

Zaizen Shion: “…”

"Forget it, it's understandable that the third son of the Wanzhangmu Group takes drugs occasionally, so let's just ignore him for now!"

Her face twitched slightly for a few times, and then Zaizen Shion turned her attention to the other people. "I've decided. The target candidates are Izayoi Kaoru and Ed Phoenix. In addition, in order to avoid the Duel King's suspicion, you can randomly pick a lucky fan for me!"

"As you command, young lady!"

After receiving the instructions from Zaizen Shion, the bodyguards of the Zaizen family immediately entered the working state. Soon they received the signal from the backstage. Zaizen Shion smiled slightly, then pretended to draw lots and said in a delicate voice with the microphone on the duel arena: "Everyone~ duelists, it's time for Shion's random draw~!"

"Well, follow the direction of the spotlight and let's pick the first lucky fan on the spot~!"

Click! Click!

As several spotlights were shining on Izayoi Kaoru, Zaizen Shion pretended to be very surprised and announced loudly with the microphone: "Oh, it seems that our first lucky audience member has been selected. Let's welcome this lady to the stage with warm applause!"

"Ah? It's me?" Having never expected that such a good thing would happen to her, Kaoru Izayoi couldn't help but giggle while feeling extremely surprised.

"Yeah, that's right, my Xiaoxun is just so lucky!"

"Come on, Master's wife, you must win the duel!"

"Come on, Sister Xun, we will support you!"

"Okay, then I'll give it a try~!" Under the instigation of Li Youfeng and others, Izayoi Kaoru, who was selected as the lucky fan, was too embarrassed to refuse everyone's kindness. She smiled at Li Youfeng reluctantly, and then she slowly walked out of the crowd.

"Hmph! It's indeed the Rose Princess!" Although there was a bright smile on Zaizen Shion's face, she had actually already sneered in her heart.

As the dueling idol lady of the previous generation, the honors achieved by Izayoi Kaoru can be completely described as legendary. Her existence is not only the goal that all female duelists strive for, but also a powerful enemy that those ambitious female duelists who attempt to challenge her status must defeat!

It is conceivable that as a new duel idol with the highest popularity among active Dojinshi, Zaizen Shion knows very well that if she wants to become a first-rate duel idol, she will definitely not be able to stay inferior to others for long!

Therefore, if she cannot defeat the legend of the previous generation with her own hands, then she can only live forever under the aura of Izayoi Kaoru. This kind of thing is absolutely intolerable for Zaizen Shion, who is arrogant and determined to surpass the legend.

"My beautiful sister, please wait a moment. We are going to draw the second lucky fan next!"

Shion Zaizen had a sweet smile on her face, pretending that she didn't know Kaoru Izayoi at all. After very politely guiding Kaoru Izayoi to sit in the contestant guest seat, she immediately announced that she would start drawing the next lucky fan.

The spotlights on the stage began to shake rapidly, moving through the crowd like shooting stars. As the spotlights gradually slowed down, people's eyes followed their movement closely.

Finally, the bright spotlight slowly stopped and fell on a silver-haired boy.

"Huh? This is really unexpected. I didn't expect that I would be chosen as a lucky fan!"

The corners of Ed's mouth slightly lifted up, revealing an imperceptible sneer. His silver eyes stared at Zaizen Shion on the stage with an extremely cold gaze, and then he lowered his voice and said to Li Youfeng beside him: "Master, this idol lady doesn't seem to be as innocent as she seems!"

"Haha, Ed, you are really sharp. In fact, I noticed it when you were chosen as the lucky fan." Li Youfeng responded to Ed with a smile and nodded slightly, indicating that he also noticed the weirdness of the matter.

After all, the square of the shrine is as large as half a football field if the arena is not counted. In such a spacious venue, he chose his wife and Ed. No matter how you look at it, it is unlikely to be a coincidence, right?

"Master, don't worry. No matter what happens, I will protect your wife!" Ed nodded to Li Youfeng, then gently patted Sera's little hand, and then slowly walked out of the crowd.

"Oh, what a surprise!? This fan doesn't seem to be from our Sakura Country?" Seeing Ed walking up to the duel arena with a smile on his face, Zaizen Shion naturally hurried to greet him.

"Yes, that's right. I came here today with my master's wife. I didn't expect that I would be selected as the lucky fans together with my master's wife. This is really a coincidence, don't you think? Miss Zaizen!" Although Ed had a faint smile on his face, his expression seemed extremely cold in the eyes of Zaizen Shion.

Knowing that Ed had become suspicious, Zaizen Shion smiled and said perfunctorily, "Ahaha! Who can tell the truth about luck?"

Surprised that Ed was so vigilant, Shion Zaizen's heart was actually already in turmoil, but she pretended to be calm on the surface.

"Damn, Ed's intuition is really scary as he is the current world champion. But luckily I only chose the two of them. As long as the next fan draws a passerby character, I'm sure Ed will dispel his suspicion a little!" Zaizen Shion was secretly glad in her heart, and she couldn't help but feel a little proud of her own cleverness. If she hadn't made such a decision very cautiously, she would have been seen through by Ed by now.

"Then we will draw the third lucky fan next!"

Quickly changing the subject, Zaizen Shion naturally announced again the start of drawing lucky fans. The spotlight on the stage started turning again, and as the speed gradually slowed down, the spotlight finally stopped on Yuki Judai.

Yuujo Judai: "What?! It's me? Is the random draw so capricious?"ヾ(??﹏?)??

Zaizen Shion: “…”

"Gaia!!!"

Beads of sweat the size of beans instantly appeared on Shion Zaizen's forehead, and in her heart she was making the same heart-wrenching scream as Ultraman when he transformed!

After all, things have developed to this point, and it is obviously no longer a question of whether or not to admit that there is a shady deal!

As mentioned before, if such a large venue only lights up one spot, how will other fans in the venue feel? It's okay if it happens once or twice, but why is it the third time?

Oh! You really gave up so badly that you don’t want to act anymore, right?

This kind of underhanded trick is not enough to fool a meticulous world champion like Ed. Anyone who sees this kind of thing would probably become suspicious, right?

In fact, just as Zaizen Shion thought, the audience around her had already started whispering, and some suspicious duelists also began to whisper whether there was some shady dealings in this fan lottery duel event. What was even more annoying was that even Izayoi Kaoru and Ed, who were sitting next to her in the guest seats, began to look at her with scrutiny!

Feeling her heartbeat getting faster and faster, Shion Zaizen's heart seemed to be about to jump out of her throat.

"Damn it! I clearly said that I would randomly pick a lucky fan, but why did these idiots insist on holding on to the Duel King and his group!"

As a benchmark figure among female duelists in the duel world, Kaoru Izayoi is not only the partner of the Duel King, but she also won the impressive title of the first KC Cup Champion with her own strength!

For Shion Zaizen, if she can defeat Kaoru Izayoi in this duel, it will undoubtedly bring great help to her future idol career. Even if she loses in the end, she can still win the favor of Kaoru Izayoi.

Therefore, this matter is essentially a no-cost business with no downside for her!

As for Ed Phoenix, Shion Zaizen, who considers herself a disciple of the former Three Musketeers of Doma, does not think that she is weaker than the former. Therefore, this duel is actually a battle to prove her reputation!

After all, she didn't know Ed's true identity in public. For Zaizen Shion, if she won, she could say it was her own strength! If she lost, she could also argue that she lost on purpose to her fans.

The prerequisite for achieving all this is that one challenges the first two without knowing it, which is also the main reason why Shion Zaizen has to randomly draw the third lucky fan.

Unfortunately, what Zaizen Shion never expected was that Li Youfeng's other apprentice, Youcheng Judai, had luck in drawing lots that could not be explained by common sense!

As accurate as his card drawing in duels, when he was in the Duel Academy, whether buying card packs or grabbing the golden egg bread that was limited to one a day in the cafeteria, Yuki Judai never failed!

This is one of the main reasons why the students of Duel Academy regard Yuki Judai as the public enemy of the entire school!

Therefore, it’s not that the bodyguards of the Zaizen family did not follow the instructions of Zaizen Shion, but that Yuki Judai’s luck was really there!

"Jiuda, you can go on stage to duel, but you absolutely cannot win!" Because before the lucky fan was drawn, Zaizen Shion had clearly stated that the fan who won the duel could date her for a day, so when Asuka Tenjouin saw that her tenth generation was also chosen, she pouted and expressed strong protest!

"Haha, don't worry Asuka, I'm just going to test the strength of this idol lady, and if it's enough, I'll just admit defeat! Believe me, I will never go on a date with anyone other than you!"

Ignoring the murderous looks from the fans around him, Judai Yuki comforted Asuka Tenjouin and walked onto the duel arena with a smile on his face.

"Hey, Ed, you probably didn't expect that my luck is so good! Hehe, I want to sit next to the master's wife, too!" Sitting on the other side of Izayoi Kaoru as casually as the left and right bodyguards, Judai Yuki made a provocative gesture towards Ed, not to be outdone.

"It's over!" Caizen Shion, who was keenly aware that the way Izayoi Kaoru looked at her had changed, and who had originally held out a glimmer of hope, now realized that this jellyfish-head was actually in cahoots with the others!

The reason why there was still a glimmer of hope just now was that as a student, Juuyo Yuki was not well-known at this time. In addition, the Duel Academy was a closed management system, so it was naturally impossible for Shion Zaizen, who only performed idol activities in Dojino, to know the other party.

"Shion-chan~!"

With a faint smile on her face, Izayoi Kaoru calmly said: "As a woman, I actually don't like this kind of behavior with other impure thoughts! To be honest, I was looking forward to this duel, but unfortunately, it seems that your actions are a bit too much!"

"As an idol, your behavior has let down your fans. In my opinion, this is a serious disqualification!"
