The history of “Extreme Ice Flow” can perhaps be traced back several decades to the “Yujo Judai era.”
After its founder obtained a powerful Monster Card named “Azure Ice White Night Dragon,” he once reached the pinnacle of professional tournaments.
Although many, when speaking of this story, referred to that Ice Dragon Duelist as “Magnificent but Melting Ice” (meaning a flash in the pan), there were still many ardent enthusiasts who regarded him as a peak and continuously followed him.
Influenced by the Dojo of that time – the “Cyber Stream” – this Ice Dragon Duelist founded “Extreme Ice Flow” after retiring, and it rapidly grew in strength.
When the Synchro Summon era arrived, “Extreme Ice Flow,” which possessed the “Ice Barrier” series, reached its historical peak.
Not only did the Dojo house countless powerful Duelists, but it even saw the emergence of four Duelist prodigies!
These four prodigies were highly renowned in the Dueling world.
With four distinct styles, they showcased the charm of “Ice Barrier” and “Extreme Ice Flow” to the world.
Due to their contributions to the Dojo, the old Dojo Master at the time spared no effort to create a unique and precious Card for each of them.
Those Cards also became the four individuals’ respective appellations later on — “Shen Bing,” “Duo Luo,” “Peng Lai,” “Yun En”…
What a pity…
Fate’s cruel play with New Domino City also affected “Extreme Ice Flow.”
During the “Zero Reverse” incident, all four “Tiger Generals” tragically passed away, and most of the people in the Dojo also met with misfortune.
To this day, “Extreme Ice Flow”‘s talent has dwindled.
Eventually, only the previous Dojo Master’s pair of children remained, along with an old teacher who had nurtured countless students only to watch them leave one by one.
Inside the dimly lit Dojo, Tian Guang Yu Zai’s tone was incredibly firm.
At this moment, his drunken scent seemed to vanish, leaving behind only the youthful fervor unique to a young man.
Sitting higher up, his older sister Tian Guang Qing Xue’s eyes welled with worry and sadness.
It was already difficult enough for her to take over as Dojo Master at such a young age, and now her younger brother had become so willful.
Even if it was just for their mom and dad, she absolutely had to protect Tian Guang Yu Zai.
But…
How was she supposed to persuade him now?
“Alright,” the stout, white-haired old man suddenly spoke at this moment.
“Since that’s the case, I’ll agree to your terms.”
Tian Guang Yu Zai was stunned, his expression filled with surprise.
“But, Mr.
Inside the dimly lit Dojo, the old man placed the ruler back in front of him.
With a solemn demeanor, he slowly said, “However, as a Duelist, you must bear a Duelist’s responsibility.”
“You not only lost the Dojo’s most important Dragon Card, but you also misplaced the D-Wheel, the hope for revitalizing the Dojo.”
“If you cannot personally resolve this matter, it proves that you do not possess the qualifications to become a Duelist.”
“Once you retrieve those two items, I will pass on ‘Extreme Ice Flow’ to you.”
Tian Guang Yu Zai’s face was filled with joy: “Really?!
Then it’s a deal!
I’ll definitely get back the lost D-Wheel and Deck!!”
With that, he strode out of the Dojo, his previous hesitant steps completely gone.
As soon as her brother left, Tian Guang Qing Xue couldn’t help but ask, “Mr.
Seng Zheng, Yu Zai he…”
“I know,” the old man nodded slightly and explained, “However, becoming a Duelist is not an easy feat, and for Tian Guang Yu Zai, it’s even harder than ascending to the heavens.
With that kid’s personality, he most likely won’t last long.”
Tian Guang Qing Xue worried, “But what if he perseveres?
Real Dueling arenas use standard strength simulated impacts; they won’t adjust the parameters of the Dueling equipment like we do.”
Mr.
Seng Zheng’s eyes gleamed as he pondered, “If that kid can truly persevere, I will give him a great gift.”
Tian Guang Qing Xue was startled: “A great gift?”
“That’s right,” Mr.
Seng Zheng looked up at the three characters “Extreme Ice Flow” on the wall.
“As long as he has a Card Spirit, Yu Zai’s body will no longer be an issue!”
Walking out of the Dojo, Tian Guang Yu Zai was in high spirits.
He walked along the roadside, recalling what had happened the previous evening.
At that time, he was practicing on the highway, riding a D-Wheel he had stolen from his sister.
But because he was too unskilled, after riding for about a block or so, he stopped by the roadside, smoking and resting.
What he didn’t expect was that just as he carelessly flicked cigarette ash onto the ground, something in the scrap heap behind him inexplicably caught fire, followed by a series of explosions!
In a panic, he parked the D-Wheel to the side, intending to put out the fire.
But when he saw a person emerge from the flames, he was completely dumbfounded. Enjoying the story? Read on at g.com.
This was Satellite.
It was common to find bodies in the garbage heaps.
However, the irresponsible Security Officers never thoroughly investigated, and many who reported incidents were instead wrongly accused as suspects.
At that time, Tian Guang Yu Zai’s first reaction was to put out the fire; he wanted to confirm if the guy was still alive.
But just as he parked the D-Wheel by the roadside to look for something to extinguish the flames, sirens suddenly blared from all directions.
Tian Guang Yu Zai, thinking the Security Officers were baiting him, was startled and ran off.
But the situation developed differently from what he imagined: the “corpse” that emerged from the fire surprisingly rode off on his D-Wheel and engaged in a Turbo Duel with Security Officer Trudge?!
He had no other strong memories, only remembering that the “corpse” had a necklace with an Adept Card.
Before the Duel began, he even placed the Card from the necklace into Tian Guang Yu Zai’s carefully constructed Deck.
“So, as long as I find that necklace, I can find the guy who rode off with the D-Wheel!” Tian Guang Yu Zai chuckled triumphantly.
“It’s too simple~”
For the next two days, Yusei temporarily worked under the table at Devitt’s factory.
The factory manager, whose sole thought was to sell off workstations to make money, certainly wouldn’t let new people in, so what Yusei earned was a portion shared by everyone else.
Although his income was slightly less, as long as Yusei was there, the conveyor belt wouldn’t cause any problems.
In the end, Yusei, who initially seemed to be taking a share of their livelihood, became the only one who could secure everyone’s jobs.
At night, Yusei worked at the factory, and during the day, he would find a place to sleep, just like when he was a wandering teenager working at an auto repair shop.
Soon, the day Yusei had arranged with Devitt arrived.
The two of them set off from Sector F17, driving through street after street towards the distant Sector A.
This time, however, Devitt was the one driving.
“Hey, take a look at this.” While waiting at a traffic light, Devitt pulled a poster out of the glove compartment and handed it to Yusei.
“What is it?” The light was dim, and Yusei couldn’t quite make it out.
Devitt grinned proudly: “It’s the announcement for the Satellite Turbo Duel Grand Prix.
The winner gets a chance to go to New Domino City and become a professional-level Duelist.
Your skills are so good, it’d be a shame not to give it a try.”
