[Among the following three options, which one is related to the monster shown in the image?]
A. Dark Magician Girl
B. Blue-Eyes White Dragon
C. Red-Eyes Black Dragon
Wearing a deep navy, flowing magician's robe and holding a staff as tall as himself with a green orb embedded at its tip, the monster card illustration also displays the "Dark" attribute symbol in the top right corner, along with seven red stars in yellow circles representing its level.
This is Dark Magician — one of the ace monsters of the greatest Duel King, Yugi Mutou, and also one of the most powerful high-ranking magicians of the Spellcaster tribe.
Option A, Dark Magician Girl, plainly shows her relationship with the depicted monster Dark Magician — she is his magical apprentice.
Option B, Blue-Eyes White Dragon, is not only the ace monster of one of Duel King Yugi Mutou's rivals but also shares a mysterious connection that stretches back over 3000 years with Dark Magician as "tablet-era archrivals" — a little-known special relationship.
As for Option C, Red-Eyes Black Dragon? It's the ace monster of one of the Duel King's best fri—(rivals) and has often been discussed alongside Blue-Eyes White Dragon in terms of power and fame.
There's also an even lesser-known "connection": Red-Eyes Black Dragon can fuse with Dark Magician to form a powerful, dimension-transcending Fusion Monster — a terrifying entity nicknamed "Red-Dad" by fans!
So, the answer to this question is—
"A, of course! Waifu is #1, the other two can step aside!"
"No no no! Blue-Eyes White Dragon is also female, okay? And she's got tons of versions — not only does she appear as a bride standing at the top of Duel Monsters, but she also has an anti-everything transformed form that counters all weak monsters!"
"Just asking quietly… Can any of them be stronger than 'Dad'?"
…In short, the correct answer to this multiple-choice question depends on your perspective.
(The above opinions represent personal views only. The officially correct answer is A. What do you think?)
…Next question…
[The FIRE-attribute Dragon-type monster "Darkblaze Dragon," which was successfully Special Summoned from the Graveyard and has 2400 ATK, is then equipped with the Equip Spells "Megamorph" and "Human Evolution," and afterward is targeted by the Quick-Play Spell "Shrink." So, what is the final attack of "Darkblaze Dragon"?]
A. 600
B. 4800
C. 500
D. All of the above
The key to answering this lies in whether the Life Points (LP) of the card owner have changed.
Option A's "600 ATK" assumes that the player's Life Points are equal to the opponent's. Since the two Equip Spells are applied first and then "Shrink" is activated, the Equip Spell effects won't apply if the Life Points are the same (meaning they don't alter the ATK), and "Darkblaze Dragon" returns with its base ATK of 2400. After being halved once by "Shrink," it becomes 1200, and halved again becomes 600.
As for Option B, the "4800 ATK" outcome hinges on the card owner's Life Points becoming lower than the opponent's afterward, which activates the effects of both Equip Spells. In this case, "Human Evolution" first boosts the previously calculated 600 ATK back to 2400, and then "Megamorph" further doubles it:
2400 × 2 = 4800.
In Option C, the logic is the exact opposite of Option B — the owner's Life Points become higher than the opponent's, causing the Equip Spell effects to function differently. Here, "Human Evolution" increases the shrunken original 600 ATK to 1000, and then "Megamorph" — with the opposite effect due to higher LP — halves that enhanced ATK:
1000 ÷ 2 = 500.
Thus, the correct answer to this question is D — all of the above are correct because the question does not specify the relative Life Points between the players. Each answer corresponds to a different possible battle condition in real dueling scenarios.
…Next Question…
[Please define the following five types of special monsters: "Flip Monsters," "Union Monsters," "Spirit Monsters," "Gemini Monsters," and "Trap Monsters."]
Flip Monsters: These are monsters that typically have effects that activate when they are Flip Summoned or when they are flipped face-up from a face-down position due to battle or card effects.
Union Monsters: These monsters have the unique ability to equip themselves to a designated monster (by activating their effect while on the field, becoming an Equip Spell Card), or they can unequip and return to their original monster state.
Spirit Monsters: A special subtype of Effect Monsters. All Spirit Monsters share this common trait: "This card cannot be Special Summoned. If this card is Normal Summoned, Flip Summoned, or Special Summoned, return it to the hand during the End Phase of that turn."
Gemini Monsters: While on the field or in the Graveyard, these monsters are treated as Normal Monsters. However, if they are Normal Summoned again (using your one Normal Summon for the turn), they become Effect Monsters and gain the effects written on their card text. All Gemini Monsters are, by nature, Effect Monsters, but are treated as Normal Monsters under certain conditions.
Trap Monsters: These begin as Trap Cards (either Normal or Continuous Traps). After activation, they temporarily become Monster Cards. While they are on the field as monsters, they are treated as both Trap Cards and Monster Cards simultaneously. Some Trap Monsters may later lose their Trap Card status, depending on their effect.
…Final Question…
[Please list the full names of the three "Egyptian God Cards" at the pinnacle of Duel Monsters, and name the five duelists universally recognized as the strongest in the world.]
Representing light and darkness, the earth-shaking blue giant deity — Obelisk the Tormentor;
Representing good and evil, the sky-rumbling red divine dragon — Slifer the Sky Dragon;
Representing heaven and earth, the radiant golden divine bird bathed in sunlight — The Winged Dragon of Ra.
The five strongest duelists on the face of the earth:
Yugi Mutou, who uses the "Silent Pitfall" deck;
The Nameless Pharaoh, who uses the "Dark Magician & Apprentice" deck;
Seto Kaiba, who uses the "Blue-Eyes Waifu" deck;
Katsuya Jonouchi (Joey Wheeler), who uses a mix of "Gemini, Warrior, Gamble, and Red-Eyes" cards;
And finally, (BEEP——).
Together, these five are known collectively as the "Five King Duelists"!
...Test completed...
"This exam paper's questions are pretty decent. They can stay as is — no need for any major changes!"
After jotting that note down in a small notebook, he handed in his paper to the proctor. Then, under the surprised, admiring, and envious gazes of the other test takers, he calmly packed up his things and walked straight out of the exam hall without looking back.
After he had fully exited, among the remaining examinees, a boy who had already finished his test earlier thought for a moment, then imitated him and walked up to the proctor to turn in his paper as well.
He dreamed of walking out of the exam room just like the guy before him, ready to go do something he enjoyed — but unexpectedly, not only did the proctor not accept his paper, they shot him a fierce glare instead.
While the boy stood there confused and dazed, the proctor gave him a firm flick to the forehead and told him to return to his seat and stay there until the bell for paper collection rang.
'Who do you think you are compared to him?! Let alone the fact that he answered every question — and at a glance, they all looked correct!'
Watching the student scratching the back of his head as he walked back to his seat, the proctor rolled their eyes and muttered to themselves. Then they picked up their insulated thermos and took a sip.
