Summary
{{Chapter summary|The Duel between Jack and Rex continues. Rex almost defeats Jack with his "Duel Dragon", but Jack manages to make a comeback!

Featured Duel: Jack Atlas vs. Rex Goodwin
Duel continues from the previous Ride.

Turn ?: Rex

Rex has just Synchro Summoned "Dragoascension, the Supreme Dragon of the Heavens" (?/3000). As he Synchro Summoned, "Belfry of the Heavenly Halo" lets Rex Draw 1 card. As Rex has 6 cards in his hand, the ATK of "Dragoascension, the Supreme Dragon of the Heavens" becomes 6000 (?/3000 → 6000/3000). Attacks "Jeweled Red Dragon Archfiend", but Jack activates his set "Synchro Libido", preventing "Jeweled Red Dragon Archfiend" from being destroyed by battle. In addition, the battle damage is halved (Jack 2000 → 500). Rex sets 1 card. As there is 1 less card in his hand, the ATK of "Dragoascension, the Supreme Dragon of the Heavens" decreases by 1000 (6000/3000 → 5000/3000).

Turn ?: Rex

Jack activates "Jeweled Red Dragon Archfiend's" effect to destroy "Dragoascension, the Supreme Dragon of the Heavens", but the latter's effect activates, returning itself to Rex's Extra Deck and Special Summoning its Synchro Materials, "Disaster Sage of the Heavenly Halo" (100/800), "Tuner of the Heavenly Halo" (900/600) and 3 "Magician of the Heavenly Halo" (1400/100 each) from his Graveyard in Attack Position instead. Since the effect of "Jeweled Red Dragon Archfiend" failed to destroy a monster, it cannot attack this turn. As Rex Special Summoned a Synchro Monster, Jack activates "Clinch Reborn" from his hand, Special Summoning "Dark Highlander" (2800/2300) from his Graveyard in Attack Position. Jack then equips "Black Brooch" to "Disaster Sage of the Heavenly Halo", reducing its ATK by 1000 to 0. In addition, its effect is negated and it can't be destroyed by battle. Attacks "Disaster Sage of the Heavenly Halo" (Rex 3000 → 200). Jack activates the effect of "Dark Highlander" to destroy "Black Brooch", but Rex activates his set "Protection Seal of the Heavenly Halo", negating the destruction of Spell and Trap Cards this turn.

Turn ?: Rex

Rex tunes his 5 monsters to Synchro Summon "Dragoascension, the Supreme Dragon of the Heavens", but Jack activates the effect of "Dark Highlander" to negate its summon. Rex chains "Flawless" from his hand, negating its effect and destroying it as it negated a Synchro Summon. As he Synchro Summoned, the effect of "Belfry of the Heavenly Halo" activates, letting him draw 1 card. As Rex has 6 cards in his hand, the ATK of "Dragoascension, the Supreme Dragon of the Heavens" increases by 6000 (?/3000 → 6000/3000). As both players have less than 1000 Life Points, Jack activates his set "Ending Gravestone", forcing both players to Discard their hands. As he has no cards in his hand, the ATK of "Dragoascension, the Supreme Dragon of the Heavens" (6000/3000 → 0/3000). Rex activates his set "Profit of the Heavenly Halo", letting him draw double the amount of cards discarded, meaning he draws 12. As he has 12 cards in his hand, the ATK of "Dragoascension, the Supreme Dragon of the Heavens" increases by 12000 (0/3000 → 12000/3000)

Duel continues in the next Ride.
