Playing cards, I am your ancestor!-Chapter 340: Selection Match Against Guiqing 2
Guo Shu hesitated upon hearing: "Wind Guiding Flower? You’re planning to use this for output? It’s not impossible, but in a regular competition setting, this card’s strength is actually outdated."
There are also differences between SSR cards.
It depends on the Spirit Card Master’s operation, as well as the actual upper limit of the Card Spirit.
Some Card Spirits will always have an upper limit, and Wind Guiding Flower belongs to this category of capped cards.
When it first debuted, it was impressive for its unique ingenuity, able to produce unexpected effects.
But as the strength of SSR cards increased, Wind Guiding Flower seemed somewhat inadequate.
It only has one characteristic.
The main Card Spirit of Wind Guiding Flower is a gigantic flower resembling a lily.
It doesn’t move from its place, but every minute it generates a strong gust of wind. When the wind blows, this card absorbs some of the abilities of the cards within its range and then releases them.
For this reason, this card heavily relies on its mechanics—it needs help from other cards.
When there’s no wind generated, it won’t move, but opponent card spirits will move. If the wind doesn’t contact other card spirits when it sweeps through, its power is negligible.
On the field, this kind of card is known as a legendary scratch master.
Why does Mount Flower still use it in competitions?
Because the mechanics of Wind Guiding Flower stand, it might still be useful at critical moments, and Mount Flower doesn’t have many SSR cards that can compete.
Wind Guiding Flower was once eliminated, but as more and more cards were destroyed, Mount Flower could only bring back Wind Guiding Flower for use.
If it can’t position itself, it needs other teammate cards to force opponents into positions where Wind Guiding Flower’s skills are effective. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮
Wen Jiang always likes to use these strange cards, but with her ability to manipulate Soul Severing the Other Shore, this time the teammates didn’t show disbelief.
Guo Shu also thought if she wants to use it, let her use it, what if it works wonders?
Now that the card banning is over, Mount Flower took Wind Guiding Flower as the first choice.
The venue erupted in commotion.
"Oh my, this card? I still remember, hasn’t Mount Flower used it for years?"
"I remember the last time this card was used was five years ago against the Holy Beast, right? Man, that gust of wind only managed to blow a tuft of the opponent tiger’s fur, and the player’s team using this card was scolded, it was completely useless, leaving the teammates to fight four against five."
"Yeah, this card doesn’t benefit from support abilities, only output abilities, and even its key output is lacking."
"A rational Mount Flower wouldn’t use this card, do they really underestimate Guiqing that much?"
"If it were me, I’d look down on them too, even without Wen Jiang’s intervention, the other four are still risky enough."
"Dandelion aims for the late game; its defense is already high, could Wind Guiding Flower scratch off a layer of Dandelion’s skin?"
"Not necessarily, what if Wen Jiang uses it? She likes using these odd cards."
"She... indeed, she’s ridiculously powerful, not from this world."
The players in the venue discussed fervently, Tan Heming had been following the investigation on the Duan family recently, but he’d still watch Wen Jiang’s match.
Or rather, only this match.
He was indeed curious to see how the conflict between Wen Jiang and Song Yingchen would conclude.
Everyone loves gossip, and Tan Heming was just curious.
However, he was watching from the association, only able to watch the live broadcast.
The live camera cleverly moved to the faces of several players from Guiqing Association, who indeed looked bewildered, apparently aware of this card, and Tan Heming saw two Guiqing players showing expressions of delight.
They probably thought that Mount Flower using this card was equivalent to discarding it.
Tan Heming shook his head, sighed: "Why, after so many losses, haven’t they learned? This card is usually daring for anyone to play, doesn’t mean Wen Jiang won’t dare."
Back when she used Wind in the Dandelion, a legendary useless A-Level card, she managed to achieve impossible miracles against all associations; the strength of SSR cards in her hands would only go a notch higher.
Luo Juerao raised an eyebrow, now more cautious not to completely refute his talk brother’s opinion, just thought this card was too hard to gauge: "Really, five years ago it left such a deep impression, even Mount Flower didn’t use it themselves, maybe Wen Jiang just finds it novel?"
Tan Heming said, "The mechanism of Wind Guiding Flower is quite good, slightly modify it..." He paused: "Wen Jiang might just want to try the feel and see if there’s inspiration since Mount Flower’s recent three SSR cards were crafted by her?"
Luo Juerao scratched his head: "Tan brother, do you really think she came up with all three cards? What kind of strength is that to deliver three new SSR cards right before the competition? She must have a team of card makers behind her?"
An heir like her is unlikely not to maintain such a team dedicated to making cards for the Jimo Family.
The introduction of the three new cards by Mount Flower shook the community, but not many believed they were all Wen Jiang’s solo effort.
There seems to be speculation that she must have given her materials to other card makers.
Tan Heming hesitated for a moment, but he still nodded: "It should be her, at this stage even if she handed the mythical materials to others, no Card Maker could understand the world’s structure so quickly. It was said she already handed the Divine Beast materials to other UR-level Spirit Card Masters, but till now, except for the repaired Black Tortoise, no other Divine Beast has appeared."
This shows these cards aren’t easy to make either.
However, new A-Level cards have started to appear, with cards from Yunxia’s mythology.
This is already inspiring enough.
Not many doubt the current Yunxia myth’s authenticity; they just want to know, if Yunxia’s myths come true, how many new cards they could create.
The emergence of Yunxia’s mythological cards has made the position of the Nobility precarious.
Currently, all the newly created cards are Empire’s copyrights; the Nobility can’t even sip the soup, hating Wen Jiang to the core.
Even families like Duan Yuleng’s have begun fostering intentions of betrayal. Over time, can the Nobility really refrain from acting against Wen Jiang?
Furthermore, within the Nobility, the Yin family has long had irreconcilable conflicts with Wen Jiang.
Now when Luo Juerao looks at Wen Jiang, it’s as if seeing the legend of Yunxia’s myth; it’s dreamy and unbelievable: "Does such an existence really exist in this world?"
Tan Heming didn’t explain too much, looking at the match about to start, he simply said: "Let’s watch the match first."
This match where Wen Jiang uses Wind Guiding Flower is quite intriguing.
On the live broadcast screen, many fans don’t understand Wen Jiang’s use of Wind Guiding Flower.
[Awesome, how many years has this card not been used?]
[Wow, is Guiqing really considered insignificant, directly using such a scratch master card]
[Underestimating them will surely backfire, underestimating them will surely backfire!!]
[Seeing the familiar style on the bullet screen, I suddenly feel a strange comfort, in every Wen Jiang’s match, if we don’t say something, it just doesn’t feel right]
