During this event, the player earns Numbers Clues by Dueling in Duel World (except at the Gate or against The Vagrant) or Ranked Duels. The first two times the player earns Numbers Clues from a Duel per day, they receive 10 bonus Numbers Clues.
Kite initially appears with his Level 10 Deck in Duel World (ZEXAL). Defeating him will also make him start appearing in Duel World (ZEXAL); this appearance is time-based. He will also become available to be Dueled against at the Gate. At first, he will only be able to be challenged at Level 10. To challenge him at higher Levels (up to Level 40), the player needs to defeat him at least once at the highest available Level (e.g. he needs to be defeated at Level 10 before he can be challenged at Level 20).
In order to challenge Kite Tenjo at a certain Level at the Gate, the player needs to spend a corresponding amount of Numbers Clues, which is as follows:
Level 10
Level 20
Level 30
Level 40
Rewards: x1
5 Numbers Clues
10 Numbers Clues
20 Numbers Clues
40 Numbers Clues
Rewards: x2
10 Numbers Clues
20 Numbers Clues
40 Numbers Clues
80 Numbers Clues
Rewards: x3
15 Numbers Clues
30 Numbers Clues
60 Numbers Clues
120 Numbers Clues
After completing Challenge #1, Possessed Duelists will also spawn in Duel World (ZEXAL). When challenging them, the player can use Kite Tenjo and his event exclusive Deck. Doing so will still gain EXP to the character the player was using, not to Kite Tenjo, and missions that require using Kite Tenjo will not be progressed, unless the player was already controlling Kite before opting to use the event exclusive Deck.
Challenges are made available throughout the course of the event. Once a Challenge is available, the player can unlock it by fulfilling its unlock condition. With the exception of the first, each Challenge is unlocked by completing the previous Challenge and meeting certain criteria.
When a Challenge is unlocked, a special character will spawn in Duel World (ZEXAL). The character appears as an opponent who does not provide any Duel Rewards. After defeating them, the Challenge is completed, and a cutscene plays. During the event, previously viewed cutscenes can be watched again from the Scene Album on the event page.
From January 29, 2021 onwards, after unlocking Challenge #4, Kite can appear in Duel World (ZEXAL) as "Number Hunter: Kite Tenjo". In order to spawn Number Hunter: Kite Tenjo, the player must fill a Photon Meter by Dueling in Duel World or in Ranked Duels, as detailed in the table below. If Kite Tenjo is already present in Duel World at that time, he will be replaced by Number Hunted: Kite Tenjo, and will reappear after that character is Dueled.
Occasionally, the player will receive a Photon Meter boost at random. If the player has this boost, their next Duel will accumulate 3 times as much as it otherwise would.
In this event, the player earns Event Points by Dueling Kite Tenjo and characters that spawn from Challenges. The player earns a number of Event Points equal to their Duel Result, multiplied by the Point Multiplier for that Deck level.
Once a player had earned 5,000,000 event points, they would receive 50 R Jewels for every additional 400,000 event points they proceeded to earn in the event, if any.
When Dueling against Kite Tenjo at Level 40 or higher, these are the only cards that can drop; at lower levels, cards from the standard pool for Legendary Duelists may also drop.
Possessed Duelists possess the same rewards, but since they only spawn at Level 20, cards from the standard pool may also drop.
The Card Trader EX appears during this event and remains open until one week after its conclusion. The player can trade their EX Jewels for cards, Booster Items, Gold, and Skill Chips. Each card and Booster Item can only be obtained once from the Card Trader EX during this event, but the Gold can be obtained any number of times.
