The protagonist of the Yu-Gi-Oh! world might be the same person.

Judai quickly composed himself.

"Yeah!?"

She should just accept that as it is.

"Alright, that's enough for today. I should go back and rest. You should all go back too, Asuka."

The tenth generation sat down, preparing to row away.

"It's time to go back and rest. See you tomorrow, Judai."

Asuka bids farewell to Judai, who is about to leave.

"Well, see you tomorrow."

After saying goodbye, Judai rowed away without looking back.

......

The day of the exam.

"Finally finished the exams, I almost missed it..."

After finishing the written exam, Judai collapsed from exhaustion.

"You really are late, Judai Yuki."

A boy wearing the yellow school uniform of the sun god came to Jaden's side.

"There's nothing we can do about it. Last time it was a problem with the tram, and this time we've encountered people in trouble."

Jaden remembered the fat auntie pushing the cart that had run out of gas that he had met that morning.

"Speaking of which, I remember your name is..."

The boy and Judai made eye contact.

"Four Lakes Sky!"

Judai slammed his fist down.

--boom!

The boy immediately lost his balance.

"Um... my name is Misawa Daichi..."

Misawa said, somewhat speechless.

"Oh, I'm so sorry, I feel like you don't really stand out, I couldn't remember your name."

Judai said with an apologetic expression.

"I'm really sorry that I have no presence."

Misawa was a bit overwhelmed.

"Ah... speaking of which, Misawa, what brings you here?"

Judai had no choice but to awkwardly change the subject.

"It's nothing, I just came to say hello. After all, you're one of the biggest competitors in this academy. Besides, we just got a lot of new cards at the convenience store at noon, don't you want to go check them out?"

Misawa made the suggestion to Judai.

"My deck is basically finalized, so it doesn't matter if there are any new cards. What about you, Misawa?"

The tenth generation asked in return.

"IM about the same."

Misawa shrugged.

"But buying some new cards wouldn't be bad, why don't we go take a look..."

After thinking about it, Judai decided to go anyway.

"Never mind, I'll go back and organize my deck to prepare for the afternoon's practice match."

Misawa refused.

"Then I'll take the first step."

With that, Judai stood up, waved to Misawa, and turned to leave.

......

"Huh? No more?"

The sales assistant told me that the tenth generation new card was sold out, and that it was all bought by one person.

Somewhat disappointed, Jaden prepared to leave.

"Wait a moment!"

A plump middle-aged woman walked out from inside.

"Ah! It's that lady from the morning!"

The tenth generation recognized the person who came.

"I'm not an old lady anymore, call me Duomei."

Aunt Tomie said kindly to Judai.

"I've saved something better for you than this."

Afterwards, Jaden bought the new card pack left by Tomie, and he couldn't wait to open it after receiving it.

—【Berserker's Fragment】, 【Kuriboh's Calling Whistle】, 【Wings of Evolution】...

It's basically a card that comes with Winged Kuriboh.

However, it has very little practical use and is only good for entertainment.

"Anyway, thank you, Aunt Domi."

After thanking him, the tenth generation left.

......

In the afternoon's practical session.

"Huh—! My opponent is Manjoume!? Is this allowed by the rules?"

Jaden was quite confused after learning who his opponent was.

"With such excellent results in the entrance exam, you can't really compete with the students of Osiris Red. So I've decided that Manjoume is the right opponent for you. Of course, if you win, you'll be promoted to Sun God Yellow. So what do you think? Jaden Yuki, do you want to take this exam?"

Chronos, who was preparing to cause trouble, explained to Jaden.

"Sure, I accept, but I'll pass on the Ascendant Sun God Yellow."

The tenth generation only accepts challenges.

Why not go up?

Chronos was also dumbfounded.

"Because the yellow jacket is too ugly."

Judai immediately started complaining.

"Forehead......"

Kuronos was speechless for a moment, and almost everyone's mouth twitched, especially the students of Sun God Huang, who were also aware that the coats they were wearing were ugly.

"Ahem... So you accept the decision made by Wan Zhangmu?"

He had no choice but to hide his embarrassment and confirm with Judai.

"Yes."

Judai nodded.

"Alright, let's settle the score from the previous match."

Even Manjoume, who had forgotten his lesson, accepted it.

"Then let's go, Manjoume!"

Then Judai and Manjoume started the Duel Disk together.

Chapter Nine Alliance

"Duel!!" ×2

[Yujo Judai: LP4000]

【Wan Zhang Mu Zhun: LP4000】

"I'll attack first and draw the card!"

Judai drew a card first.

[Yuki Jaden's hand cards: 5 → 6]

He first put one of his cards into the graveyard.

"First, I activate the effect of [Elemental HERO Golden Captain] from my hand."

You can activate this effect by discarding this card from your hand to the Graveyard. Add 1 "Skyscraper" from your Deck to your hand.

After Jaden received the card, he placed another card onto the Duel Disk.

"Then I summon Elemental HERO Clayman from my hand in defense position."

Nendoroid squats in front of Jaden with his arms crossed.

【Elemental Heroes Nendoroid: Defense 2000】

"Finally, I'll set two cards face down. My turn is over."

Judai quickly ended his turn.

[Yuki Jaden's hand cards: 6 → 3]

"An Elemental HERO Nendoroid with 2000 Defense!? Trying to deal with my attacks like you did with Professor Chronos?"

Manjoume thought he had seen through Judai's tricks.

"The same trick won't work on me. It's my turn. Draw a card!"

[Wan Zhangmu's accuracy: 5→6]

"Let me show you my evolved deck."

Manjoume draws one of his cards.

"I summon [V-Jet Tiger] from my hand in attack position."

A mechanical tiger was projected onto the vast field of vision.

[V-Jet Tiger: Attack Power 1600]

"【V-Jet Tiger】...A Alliance deck!?"

Judai immediately recognized what deck Manjoume was using.

"Tsk! You even know that. Well then, I'll continue with the quick-attack spell [Unauthorized Reactivation]."

You can target 1 Machine-Type monster you control; equip that monster with 1 Machine-Type Union Monster from your hand or Deck. The Union Monster equipped by this effect cannot be Special Summoned this turn.

"I will equip [W-Catapult Wing] from my deck to [V-Jet Tiger] as an equipment card that increases its attack and defense by 400."

A blue wing appeared and merged with the mechanical tiger.

[V-Jet Tiger: Attack power 1600→2000]

"Then I activated the Continuous Spell [X·Y·Z Fusion] from my hand."

There are pictures here, which can be viewed after the updated version

He now has an extra Continuous Spell on his board.

[Wan Zhangmu's accuracy: 6→3]
