The blood-red light radiated outwards, seemingly slowly but actually very quickly.
In just a moment, it covered the entire area.
The fallen souls that rose from the graveyard were swallowed by the blood light before they could even reveal their hideous nature.
The enormous body of the Beast King Divine Elephant Tiger, protected by the "Ten Elephants and Nine Tigers Realm," vanished in that instant.
The "Fallen Immortal God's" ultimate attack, which was about to be unleashed, was nipped in the bud.
When it was touched by the blood-red light, it quickly dissolved and disappeared into the rapidly shrinking, pitch-black vortex.
The shadow vanished instantly, the tomb collapsed, and the deathly aura remained.
The atmosphere in the arena remained somber, but not a single magical spirit remained.
At this moment, both competitors are back on the same starting line.
Professor Harvey attempted to activate a "Monster Resurrection" type magic card. However, after being sent to the Graveyard, the naturally disintegrated magical spirits did not respond. It seemed that those magical spirits were "dead and cannot be brought back to life" and could not be pulled out of the Graveyard again.
Professor Harvey couldn't help but sigh softly, thinking to himself, "As expected of the Beast God."
The gap between humans and gods is indeed not so easy to bridge. He had received instructions from Principal Arte before the duel began, which is why he exerted so much effort.
Despite such effort, the opponent still managed to neutralize the attack. However, the duel was far from over, and there was no real "return to the same starting line."
It was the fusion materials, not the magical spirits born from the fusion, that were unable to return from the graveyard due to the "Beast View" curse.
Because those magical spirits are not actually magical spirit cards.
He has already drawn and summoned "Frankenstein's Hollow Mirror" from his deck. With this infinite fusion card that is like a "Fusion Gate", he can fuse powerful undead creatures even faster by summoning new fusion materials.
Having received instructions from Principal Art, Professor Harvey couldn't afford to slack off and immediately began to take action.
With a light tap of his foot, one magic array after another appeared naturally, and the undead creatures that crawled out from these arrays reassembled into mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
He used these undead as sacrifices to summon new nine-star magical spirits.
As the rounds change, one magic card after another is acquired, and then it's the process of nine stars merging into twelve stars, twelve stars merging into fifteen stars, and fifteen stars merging into eighteen stars.
Meanwhile, on Mavis's side, the "Undying Realm" shrank again with the fall of the "Fallen Undying God," while his own domain expanded, creating a safe haven that freed him from the state of "from life to death."
He launched a new summons without hesitation.
Having a complete "Beast God" deck is his advantage, as he can continue to summon "Beast God" even after losing "Beast King God Dragon Lion" and "Beast King God Elephant Tiger".
This is yet another round of racing.
But this time, Professor Harvey's summoning and fusion were faster and more decisive than before.
The emergence of the twelve undead species has led to the further expansion of the "Undead Realm".
The appearance of the fifteen-star undead species rendered the "Beast King God's" powerful attacks ineffective.
The appearance of the eighteen-star immortal race brought the deepest despair!
As the canopy descended, the ghostly figures rose, the sky was covered by dark clouds, and the wailing of ghosts echoed throughout the area.
Still an eighteen-star immortal being, still the "Fallen Immortal God"! Using different magical spirits, they fused together to create the same (Fallen Immortal God).
Bound within the "dark vortex," the "Fallen Undead God" struggled to break free, dragging long, silvery-white chains.
Countless vortexes appeared, countless tombstones reappeared, and countless soul shadows rose. The "Undying Realm" broke through the territory of the "Beast God" and once again covered the feet of Mavis.
This time, Mavis did not release another "Beast View".
With the "Fallen Undying God" roaring once more, the soul shadow hanging from the black wings finally moved.
They did not gather together, but instead pressed forward.
The "Beast King God" that was touched by it had its flesh and skin ripped into chunks, revealing its white bones.
Mavis tried to set up a barrier and increase defenses, but she couldn't stop the intrusion of those soul shadows.
Since they have no physical form, they are naturally not hindered by any obstacles. Their "attacks" are not conventional offensive and defensive collisions, and therefore ignore defenses.
The only way to avoid being dissolved by them is to avoid contact. But in the "Undying Realm," spirits are everywhere, and the living have nowhere to escape.
0
While resisting the life-and-death transformation of the "Undying Realm," Mavis tried every means to break through it, but ultimately failed.
Ultimately, with the complete demise of the "Beast King God," its own life force was also completely eroded.
At that moment, he had almost become a ghost!

【End of battle】
The victor is Steven Harvey, a professor from St. Marian College whose research on necromancy is almost godlike!
In this duel, Professor Steven Harvey defeated the orc Mavis Gram, known as "Mystery Number One".
Mavis's undefeated streak was broken, and many of her hidden secrets were exposed.
His power is built upon the "Beast God," and more and more people suspect that he is the "Beast God" himself.
Therefore, although he himself could not get over this defeat, it only strengthened the resolve of those who had always cared about him to befriend him.
Lionheart went so far as to issue the order "at all costs." Moreover, he clearly saw an opportunity in this duel. Previously, Mavis had been flawless, ignoring all attempts to win him over. Now, it seems that was merely "divine arrogance."
But after this duel, the so-called "arrogance of God" must have been partially shattered.
Regardless of Mephisto's true purpose in participating in this World Cup, falling into the losers' bracket means he's already in crisis. If he loses another round in the losers' bracket, he'll be out of the running for the championship.
Demand arises only when there is a crisis.
Only by contacting them at this time will they be taken seriously.
Of course, Lionheart didn't actually believe he had the ability to help him fight his way up from the loser's bracket to win the championship.
He was simply investing in advance.
From his perspective, it would be best if Mavis were eliminated immediately. That way, Mavis's needs would be maximized.
The greater the flaws that can be revealed during negotiations, the better.
The "Beast God" represented by Mavis is very compatible with the Beastman Kingdom, and the two sides can form a mutually beneficial relationship.
If they can help the "Beast God" to be resurrected, the Beastman Kingdom will have a chance to receive some protection.
These actual needs are quite urgent.
However, whether Mavis would still be in the mood to deal with them during this particular period is completely unknown.
As the dueling area was removed, the sky above the arena gradually cleared, and both contestants left the arena one after another.
Mavis's face was grim, and he moved with lightning speed, showing no reluctance to engage in the duel.
His deck contains a large number of different types of "God Cards". But in the end, they are only used to serve those few "Beast King God" cards.
When the "Beast King God's" strength advantage turns into a disadvantage, the outcome of this duel is already predetermined.
The final "Rite of the Hungry Beast" and "View of the Giant Beast" were nothing but futile struggles.
The opponent's "Fallen Undead God" was not a product of a one-time summon. It was created through multiple "fusions" of various nine-star undead species, ultimately summoning the same magical spirit.
This shows that this magical spirit is not just a simple product of fusion.
With Mavis's current insight, it was clear that there was a very high probability that the Li Ren 1>L1r was real, and that he was a god who held the authority over the lineage of the dead.
However, most magical spirits have a prototype, and the prototype and the magical card are not necessarily related.
Just like the prototype of Dark's "Golden King? Alchemist of the Golden Kingdom" has become a god, but "Golden King" does not belong to the God Cards.
Mavis's dilemma was merely an attempt to convince herself that the "fallen immortal god" who had defeated her was also a "god".
Otherwise, he simply couldn't overcome that hurdle in his heart. Legends of mortals killing gods have existed since ancient times.
But even to the gods born in the Age of Gods, it was just a "legend." Mavis had already harbored malice as he walked from the dueling platform onto the elevator and then down from it.
No god can tolerate being defeated by mortals.
At least he can't.
The day I rise from eternal slumber, I will surely avenge today's shame!
偎…
Players lounge.
Professor Harvey leisurely returned to the room, where he heard Principal Arte's voice.
He communicated with him telepathically for a moment, then couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle.
Mavis has been identified as the reincarnation of the "Beast God," and based on his "Beast King God" appearance, it has been roughly determined which Beast God he is.
His purpose in participating in the World Cup is obviously obvious.
The Magic Alliance is now a staunch supporter of the Polopos pantheon, so it's impossible for them to allow the World Cup to become a "summoning ritual" for other gods.
Unlike Charles's scaled-down version of the "calling the gods" ritual, a true "calling the gods" ritual based on the World Cup requires at least being one of the last three participants to have a significant impact on the ceremony.
If it weren't absolutely necessary, Principal Art wouldn't want to easily interfere in the competition as the organizer, so it would be best to keep it out of the top three.
Professor Harvey has now done his part, sending Mavis into the loser's bracket.
Next, we'll have to see what happens in the losers' bracket.
Based on the current schedule.
Mavis's first opponent after falling into the loser's bracket will be "Court Magister" Cole Toynbee.
Cole Toynbee is not weak, but he was originally sent to the loser's bracket by Mavis, so his chances of winning against Mavis again are still very small.
If Mavis wins, her next opponent will be the loser between Cazell and Pandora, and then the winner of the duel with Bruce Wheeler. If it's Cazell, there's a good chance he can block Mavis's path.
Professor Harvey briefly considered the situation before looking towards the center of the arena. The upcoming fourth match of the second round of the winners' bracket was between Kazel and Pandora Drogon.
If Pandora falls into the loser's bracket, facing Mavis will be extremely difficult.
Although Pandora is arguably the strongest graduating student in the academy's history, her opponent is Mavis, who possesses a full set of "God Cards"...
"Never mind, there's nothing to think about."
Professor Harvey raised his hand and patted the "Ring of the Holy Spirit" on his hand, waking up his old friend.
Another laboratory.
After watching Professor Harvey's duel with Mavis, Dark suddenly had an epiphany.
Unlike other mages who focused on the eighteen-star magical spirits, he saw more in the exquisite "fusion" that Professor Harvey displayed in this duel.
From "Undead Fusion" to "Dead Fusion" and "Frankenstein's Monster Mirror," these "Fusion" cards each have different characteristics and focuses. However, they are all exclusive "Fusion" cards designed to target the characteristics of the Undead.
Professor Harvey has achieved unparalleled specialization in "fusion." While the "advanced fusion" that Dark is currently learning has the advantage of "universality," it is not the highest level of fusion.
It might allow three Blue-Eyes White Dragons to fuse into Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, and allow LadyDevimon and Angewomon to fuse and evolve into Mostimon. However, it might not be able to allow Dianamon and Apollomon to fuse and evolve into Gracenovamon.
After all, the "Fusion" card, which allows two Tier 5 Magical Spirits to fuse further, has never appeared in the textbook.
Furthermore, in magical duels, specialized "fusion" techniques are more suitable for specific systems, while general "fusion" techniques are not very common to begin with.
In actual combat, it goes without saying.
Therefore, turning to the study of specialized "fusion" is the right way forward. Moreover, the diverse evolution of specialized "fusion" is easier to study.
To keep the Blue-Eyes White Dragon deck up with its current strength, specializing in "Fusion" is essential.
Most importantly, continuous "Fusion" cards like "Frankenstein's Hollow Mirror" are key to supporting a high-level Fusion deck.
Dark had already considered this approach before; this time, he had simply refined it further.
After careful consideration, he figured out some clear ideas and was ready to refine his research and try to perfect it after the competition ended.
Thinking about this, he couldn't wait any longer.
This World Cup has undoubtedly boosted his career significantly, and it may take him quite some time to fully digest it.
He looked up slightly at the center of the venue.
At this moment, Professor Kazel and Senior Pandora had already stepped onto the dueling platform. As the saying goes, both are dear to him; neither Professor Kazel nor Senior Pandora wanted either of them to fall into the loser's bracket.
But in magical duels, it's either win or lose; someone will always lose.
Objectively speaking, Darke clearly believed that Professor Cazell had a greater chance of winning.
