[Ding! The resentful ghost was stunned for a moment.]
[Host gains System Points +60]
The resentful ghost thought it had misheard, but the next second, Zhang Wei's voice continued.
"And this is my good friend, Jonouchi."
Zhang Wei introduced Zhang Chao, who stood beside him.
Instantly.
Zhang Chao smiled at the resentful ghost, brought his index and middle fingers together to his temples, then pointed forward, thinking he looked cool, and said:
"Yooooo, my name is Jonouchi. My preferred deck relies heavily on cards that generate effects through gambling and Warrior-type monsters. My ace card is 'Red-Eyes Black Dragon'."
Resentful ghost: "????"
[Ding! Resentful ghost... Are you kidding me? Yugi Muto, Jonouchi? Do you think I haven't watched Yu-Gi-Oh!? Then who is the bald guy next to you, Seto Kaiba? And the woman, Anzu Mazaki?]

Just as Zhang Wei was about to introduce Wu Nian.
Wu Nian clasped his hands together, shook his head with a wry smile:
"Amitabha, Zhang Wei, Zhang Chao, let's hurry up and experiment."
Lu Lianxue chuckled at the sight, understanding Wu Nian's thoughts. Wu Nian was likely not eager to summon, but rather afraid that Zhang Wei and Zhang Chao would introduce him with some ridiculous identity.
"That's right, we need to experiment quickly. What if the exorcists from the Heresy Association find out and come to exorcise it, then it will be difficult to experiment."
Zhang Wei agreed.
Then.
The resentful ghost saw Zhang Wei, who called himself 'Yugi Muto', signal Wu Nian to step forward and deal with it. Zhang Wei, along with Lu Lianxue and Zhang Chao, stood around to prevent the resentful ghost from escaping.
Then.
Wu Nian took a step forward, clasped his hands together towards the resentful ghost in front of him, and said:
"Amitabha, donor ghost, please forgive me."
The next moment.
The runes glowed, and the resentful ghost's pupils contracted. It discovered that the invisible wall that had trapped it was released by a hand seal from Zhang Chao.
However, before it could rejoice.
"Not good!"
The resentful ghost noticed Wu Nian's actions in front of it. Seeing him reach into his pocket, it thought Wu Nian was going to deal with it. After all, Wu Nian was dressed as a monk, and even a fool could tell he was a monk, and in "that country," monks were also a profession for exorcising ghosts.
Combined with Zhang Wei's previous conversation, the resentful ghost instinctively assumed that Wu Nian was going to take out something to exorcise it, otherwise, why would he have released the confinement?
But in the next second.
[Ding! The resentful ghost is stunned... What the hell?!]
[Host gains System Points +70]
Under their gaze.
The resentful ghost saw what Wu Nian took out of his pocket: a deck of Yu-Gi-Oh! cards.
At the same time.
Fearing the ghost would die too quickly, Wu Nian, holding the Yu-Gi-Oh! cards, clasped his hands together and kindly reminded:
"Amitabha, donor ghost, this humble monk is about to perform an exorcism on you. Please be careful and don't be defeated too easily by me."
"????"
The resentful ghost's mouth twitched.
[Ding! Resentful ghost, am I going crazy, or is this a hallucination? A monk is pulling out Yu-Gi-Oh! cards to... kill me??]
[Host gains System Points +80]
Looking at Wu Nian's handsome face and his serious gaze, the resentful ghost became even more bewildered.
It was at this moment.
Wu Nian held the Yu-Gi-Oh! cards and glanced at Zhang Wei. Zhang Wei gave him a look, as if to say, 'Go ahead, Wu Nian, start as I told you.'
Seeing this.
Wu Nian's eyelids twitched, and he finally sighed, clasping his hands together:
"Amitabha."
Before he finished speaking.
Wu Nian looked at the resentful ghost and said:
"Amitabha, the battle begins. I'll go first, draw... draw a card, summon, summon Dark Magician Girl."
*Ching!*
As Wu Nian drew a Yu-Gi-Oh! card and placed it in front of his left arm, a scene that stunned the resentful ghost appeared. Wu Nian's arm glowed, and a Duel Disk appeared on his hand. As the Dark Magician Girl card was placed into the Duel Disk.
The classic Yu-Gi-Oh! dueling sound echoed.
The resentful ghost saw...
A number '4000' appeared in the bottom left corner in front of Wu Nian. This was the player's Life Points in a Yu-Gi-Oh! duel. Whoever lost 4000 Life Points first would lose.
However.
This was not the most astonishing thing for the resentful ghost. In front of Wu Nian, light bloomed, and a cute girl wearing a magician's hat and holding a cute magic wand appeared.
At the same time.
The magic girl also had a numerical tag appear in the bottom left corner, with two numbers written above and below:
[Atk: 2000]
[Def: 1700]
The resentful ghost's eyes widened, and it could no longer suppress its shock, shouting out:
"What the hell?!"
[Ding! Resentful ghost... What the heck?! It's the Yu-Gi-Oh! card Dark Magician Girl!]
[Host gains System Points +50]
Thinking of this.
The resentful ghost instinctively looked at Wu Nian, who was wearing a kasaya and holding a Duel Disk, and then at the 4000 Life Points displayed in the bottom left corner.
For a moment.
The resentful ghost stared with wide eyes and fell silent.
[Ding! Resentful ghost... Damn it! Are you kidding me? Is this a monk?]
[Host gains System Points +60]
Not only the resentful ghost, but even the surveillance personnel from the Heresy Association hiding nearby were stunned, their eyes bulging.
Just now.
Seeing Wu Nian walk forward and reach into his pocket, the surveillance personnel became interested:
"The monk from Mount Wutai in Great Xia is about to make a move. Is he going to take out Buddhist prayer beads or dharma instruments? Let me see what the difference is between the exorcism methods of monks from Great Xia and monks from my country."
As far as he knew.
Monks in Great Xia mostly used transcendence for exorcism, using Buddhist tools like wooden fish, staffs, and prayer beads. Besides that, it was rumored that monks in Great Xia had recently started using firearms for exorcism. Therefore, the surveillance personnel wanted to understand if monks in Great Xia really used firearms for exorcism, or if they used Buddhist tools.
However, as soon as the thought arose.
When he saw Wu Nian pull out Yu-Gi-Oh! cards, the surveillance personnel were dumbfounded:
"What the heck, are you kidding me? Isn't that a Yu-Gi-Oh! card? What is this monk up to? Wait, could it be that he discovered me and is deliberately putting on a show for me?"
As he spoke.
As Wu Nian drew a card, summoned Dark Magician Girl, and his Duel Disk appeared with Life Points displayed.
The surveillance personnel froze in place. After a good few seconds of愣神, they finally came back to their senses, and then, looking as if they had seen a ghost, they exclaimed in their hearts:
"Holy crap?! He... he summoned it?!"
In his words.
The surveillance personnel stared intently at Wu Nian's Duel Disk and Dark Magician Girl. Although they didn't want to think about it, the reality before them made an unbelievable thought uncontrollably pop into their minds...
Damn it, who said monks in Great Xia exorcise ghosts in a very violent way, using firearms? This is clearly the epitome of compassion, using a fair turn-based 'Yu-Gi-Oh! duel'!
Thinking of this.
The surveillance personnel murmured:
"I understand now why the international forums have been saying that Great Xia's ghost exorcism is keeping up with the times. These monks aren't using wooden fish or prayer beads anymore, they're using Yu-Gi-Oh! cards?"
As he muttered.
A scene appeared in his mind.
It was the monks of Mount Wutai in Great Xia going out to exorcise ghosts, taking out Yu-Gi-Oh! cards, summoning Duel Disks, and engaging in fierce turn-based Yu-Gi-Oh! duels with the ghosts. The monks would occasionally shout, "Amitabha, summon Blue-Eyes White Dragon! This humble monk's turn to summon!" or "Buddha's mercy, this old monk activates a trap card!"
At this moment.
His pocket vibrated. It was a call from the Heresy Association. He picked it up and saw it was from them.
