Chapter 41 What is a genius?
The preliminaries passed quickly, and Russell didn't encounter any strong opponents in the following days. The strongest player he met only had a Black Iron-level blue card.

Not to mention Luffy, even Kaneki has never appeared on the stage.

There are a total of sixty-four players in the main competition, but from the grouping Russell saw, several seeded players who have shined in the preliminaries in recent days did not meet each other. Russell didn't believe that there was no shady deal involved.

At this moment, the guest seats were already full of guests.

There are not only representatives from the Card Masters Association and senior executives of Jincai Credit, but also some celebrities.

It is obvious that this Yingcai Cup is highly valued by the city of Shanghai.

But that was before. It’s hard to say which aspect is given more attention now.

"Director Jiang, I didn't expect that the Card Master Association would let you be the representative this time. They really think highly of our Jincai Credit."

In the guest seats in the stands, the senior executives of Jincai Credit said with a smile.

The representative of the Card Artists Association was Russell's acquaintance, Jiang Wang.

But this is normal. After all, the fewer people who know about the Begging Spirit Society, the better.

It would be the most reasonable choice to let Jiang Wang, who already knew the situation, be the representative.

"Hello, everyone. This is commentator Xiao Mo. Welcome to watch the Talent Cup, which is exclusively sponsored by Jincai Credit."

At this moment, a voice full of energy sounded on the field, causing the audience to whistle.

Little Mo Russell knew that he was a big anchor on the Internet, and his usual live broadcasts were battles between card makers.

Unexpectedly, Jincai Credit invited him this time.

With Xiao Mo's jokes, the main competition of the Talent Cup officially kicked off.

Russell is in Game 7, so it will be a while before it’s his turn.

"The first match is underway now. The contestant on the left is Lin Jianian from Shanghai University High School. You can see that our student Lin has dyed his hair blonde, which is very unique."

Hearing a familiar name backstage, Russell opened his eyes. Sure enough, it was the middle school boy Lin Jianian on TV. At this moment, he was waving his arms and greeting the audience.

"According to Lin, his card is a Black Iron-grade gold quality [Sea Patrol General Yaksha]. It can be said that a hero emerges from his youth."

Familiar formula, familiar taste.

Russell was not surprised at all that Lin Jianian would reveal his own cards.

"There's nothing interesting to see next." Russell closed his eyes and continued his meditation.

"The seventh match will be held next. Please prepare in time."

The game information was being broadcasted on the radio in the background.

Russell let out a breath and ended his brief meditation.

Recently, as he deepened his meditation, he felt more and more that he had an extraordinary talent in mental power.

After tidying up his clothes, Russell came to the waiting area.

As the door of the waiting area slowly opened, the sunlight instantly pierced Russell's eyes.

The noise from the audience also began to reach his ears.

Taking a deep breath, Russell walked towards the battle area with firm steps.

"We can see that the person walking towards us from the right is Russell from Shanghai No. 1 Middle School."

“Russell performed very strongly in the qualifiers and we can expect him to do well in the finals.”

At this moment, along with Xiao Mo's commentary, the large screen hanging in the center of the battlefield began to play Russell's performance in the qualifying round.

The picture shows Ji Guoyuan holding a samurai sword in one hand and chopping off the big golden retriever with the sword.

"Golden Retriever. What did the Paw Patrol do wrong? Why are you treating them like this?"

"He is indeed powerful. He was able to behead the Golden Haired Emperor with one strike. I am convinced."

When the audience saw the scene on the screen, they couldn't help but start laughing.

After all, many ordinary people would make the Paw Patrol card to watch over their homes, but no one would have thought that someone would actually use it to participate in a competition.

At this moment, Russell's opponent also stood opposite him, and Xiao Mo's voice sounded at the right time.

"And the player on our left is Han Yingying from Jiaotong University High School." As Xiao Mo explained, the referee had already arrived at the field.

The whistle that marked the start of the game sounded, and Russell's thoughts flashed through his mind: "Since the association needs me to take first place, it is obvious that I should attract as much attention from Jincai Credit and Qiling Society as possible."

"In that case."

A black-haired boy wearing a straw hat and a red vest instantly appeared in front of Russell.

That’s right, Russell chose to let Luffy go directly into the game.

Luffy, who is of bronze-level red quality, is enough to attract the attention of the Spirit Beggars Society.

This wave, this wave uses the body as bait.

As expected, Xiao Mo at the commentary booth was stuck for a moment after seeing Luffy, but as a famous anchor, he quickly adjusted himself.

"You can see that our classmate Luo summoned a card that is completely different from the preliminaries."

"This means that Mr. Luo has at least two cards to use in the duel."

"It seems that our classmate Han will have a hard time."

From Xiao Mo's professional perspective, regardless of the quality of Jinmu, at least in a two-to-one situation, the advantage is on Russell!

The opinions in the audience were somewhat different.

"An intelligence officer, right? Smile."

"My intelligence card."

"Informer" is a nickname used by young people to refer to those cards that are obviously suicide cards in the duel between card makers.

But the next moment, as Luffy moved his right hand, overwhelming fist shadows covered the entire battlefield.

Looking at Luffy's prestige at the moment.

The scene suddenly fell silent.

Now no one would question Luffy's strength, after all, the director was very considerate and gave a close-up of the venue.

Looking at the ravaged ground, no one in the audience thought that their face would be harder than the ground.

At this moment, Han Yingying, who was opposite Russell, also looked pale.

As a greenhouse flower, she had never seen such a terrifying card.

And her cards had already disappeared under Luffy's fist.

"Russell wins!"

The referee's decision instantly broke the pin-drop silence in the venue.

"What the hell, what did I see? The purple card was killed instantly?!"

"I take back what I said about the intelligence card. This Russell's card is at least of gold quality."

"Does anyone know where this card of his came from? Why haven't I seen it in the myth book?"

"So handsome, I want it so badly."

The audience was shocked by Luffy's strength at this moment. This was the most crushing battle in the main competition so far.

At this moment, the guests in the guest seats could naturally see that Luffy was a bronze-level card.

"evildoer."

Some people couldn't help but murmur.

The senior executives of Jincai Credit were all shocked. After a while, they casually asked Jiang Wang, "Director Jiang, I remember your daughter is from Shanghai No. 1 Middle School, right?"

Hearing this, Jiang Wang glanced at the other party and said with a smile: "Yes, this Russell is Nanxi's classmate."

After a pause, Jiang Wang sighed: "He is indeed very proud of himself. As an orphan, he has made it this far."

The senior executives of Jincai Credit were stunned for a moment, but then they smiled excitedly: "That's really true..."

"A talented person with a promising future."
