- Two Disciples Stand Against Their Ambitious Master Who Has Lost His Way!!
Natural energy known as "chi" flows around the world. Someone once described that flow as a dragon, and named it "dragon vein", and areas fertilized by it "land of dragon veins". One day, a sudden incident struck the "Tenyi Style" master and students, who have been training day in and out to master their art through drawing out chi from the land of dragon veins. The master who had been training by himself within a cave became consumed with dark chi, and it drove his ambitions into overdrive. The dark chi became one with his body, and he became "Fierce Ogre of Tenyi". He was now going to use violence and force to advance his ambition for conquering and to achieve "Tenyi Wushuang". His number one disciple, the unmatched genius of Tenyi Style "Dragon Immortal of Tenyi", and the younger disciple "Warrior Monk of Tenyi" were astonished at their master's sudden change, and tried to talk some sense into him. With his ambitions amplified to an abnormal level, the disciples of course failed to reach their master by words. To stop their master's rampage, the curtain now rises upon the battle between practitioners of Tenyi Style!! [1]
Etymology
The term "Tianwei" is Chinese for "Heavenly/Imperial Authority". Each Main Deck member is named after one of the seven chakras:
Tenyi Link Monster | Corresponding Dragon | Chakra |
---|---|---|
Warrior Monk | Adhara | Muladhara |
Dragon Immortal of Tenyi | Manira | Manipura |
Nahata | Anahata | |
Sthana | Svadhishthana | |

Playing style
"Tenyi" utilize the effects of their Main Deck monsters to gain benefits for their Non-Effect Monsters, the Link-1 "Warrior Monk of Tenyi" and the Link-3 "Fierce Ogre of Tenyi", by banishing themselves from the hand or GY. Alongside this, all of the Main Deck monsters share the effect of being able to Special Summon themselves from the hand if you control a Non-Effect Monster.
As such, the deck holds a level of mass summoning to the board to build up Link Materials coupled with their current support that grants Wyrm monsters a "Foolish Burial" and "Reinforement of the Army" combo in the form of the Spell Card, "Hollow of Dragon Chakra", as well as gives Non-Effect Monsters a means of protection and draw power through the Field Spell, "Tenyi Wubeng Stance" and the Counter Trap, "Tenyi Wushuang Strike".
