Welcome to the Duel Academy where Yu-Gi-Oh appears

Sudo Ken: Hand: 1 Monster: 2 Magic Traps: 2 Venue: [Super Athlete Stadium]

"My turn, draw a card."

Jonouchi smiled and began his turn.

"I activate the Spell Card [Fusion Power Soldier], revealing 1 Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck to your opponent, and Special Summon 1 Fusion Material Monster with the card name listed on that monster from your Extra Deck or Graveyard. Monsters Special Summoned by this effect cannot attack until the end of your opponent's turn, and their effects are negated."

"I reveal [Black Flame Swordsman] and Special Summon [Flame Swordsman] from the Extra Deck."

"At this time, I activate the effect of my Libero attacker, returning 1 Level 5 or higher [Super Athlete] monster from my hand to my deck, and Special Summoning 1 [Super Athlete] monster with a different name from that monster from my deck. Afterward, return this card on the field to its owner's hand."

"I return the rebounder to the deck and Special Summon [Super Athlete Player and Leader] from the deck."

"Leader's effect: When this card is Special Summoned successfully, you can activate this effect by targeting 1 card on the field. That card is destroyed, and using the Stadium's effect, the player's attack power increases by 500 points."

Sudo Ken directly chose the Swordsman of Destruction Flame and continued to act on his own.

"Then activate the effect of Nine and a Half Player, targeting 1 [Super Athlete] monster on your side of the field other than this card. Return that face-up monster to your hand, then Special Summon 1 [Super Athlete] monster with a different name from that monster from your hand."

"Return Leader to your hand and Special Summon Libero Attacker. Then, if you successfully summon or Special Summon a [Super Athlete] monster using Leader's effect, you can Special Summon this card from your hand."

Ken Sudo was quite excited, as if he was enjoying the glory and applause like the super athletes in the monster area.

"You're too impatient, Sudou-kun."

Although Sudo Ken activated the effect of the leader, he only realized at this moment that the [Flame Swordsman] still had his arms across his chest, with dragon-like flames surrounding him, looking proud.

Seeing that Sudo Ken was confused, Jonouchi explained quietly.

"Chain your leader, I activate the quick-play magic [Fighting Flame Sword]. One of its effects is that when your opponent activates an effect targeting a [Flame Swordsman] or a monster with its card name on your field, you can activate it to negate that effect."

Ken Sudo couldn't help scratching his head, realizing that he had just lost his temper again.

Equip [Flying Dragon Flame Fusion] to [Flame Swordsman]. Activate this effect if this card is equipped to a Fusion Monster you control. Send this card and the equipped monster to the Graveyard, then Special Summon 1 [Flame Swordsman] or a Fusion Monster with its card name from your Extra Deck as a Fusion Summon.

Among the many fusion magics, the equipment magic [Dragon Flame Fusion] is relatively special.

"Forged through countless trials, bathed in fire and riding a dragon. Raise the flames—[Swordsman of Extreme Fire]!"

"Activate the effect of [Flame Swordsman], targeting 1 monster on your opponent's field. Destroy that monster and inflict 500 damage to your opponent."

The strong warrior started a raging fire, and the flames turned into a long dragon and wrapped around the leader of the athletes, burning him to ashes.

Ken Sudo: lp6800 → lp6300

"Activate the effect of the hand card [Flying Flame Dragon] and equip it to [Extreme Flame Swordsman]. Increase the equipped monster's attack power by 700 points."

[Flame Swordsman (8 Stars)] [Warrior/Fusion/Effect ATK: 2800 → 3500 DEF: 1600]

"Advance to the battle stage, [Swordsman of Extreme Flame] attack the free attacker, and slash with the sword of extreme flame!"

The greatsword was wrapped in flames, and as the swordsman dodged in an instant, the free attacker was cut into two pieces by the sword.

Ken Sudo: lp6300 → lp4600

"Cover two cards, and the turn ends."

Jonouchi: Hand 0, Monster 1, Magic Traps 3

"My turn to draw a card..."

"The effect of [Extreme Blaze Swordsman] destroys player number nine and a half. If [Extreme Blaze Swordsman] has an Equipment Card equipped, the destruction effect can be activated during the opponent's turn."

The Flame Dragon surged again, declaring that Sudo Ken's monster zone was empty.

Ken Sudo: lp4600→4100

"Teacher, I have figured it out."

"Dueling or sports, they are all things I love."

"No matter what the outcome of this duel is, my path has been determined. I will become a basketball player like these super athletes, sweating on the court and enjoying the applause!"

Sudo Ken’s cry reminded You Feng of the words “Coach, I want to play basketball.”

Jonouchi also smiled, then said seriously, "Well, show me your athletic resilience now!"

"Yes!"

Sudo Ken also smiled and responded eagerly.

Chapter 93: Swordsman of Fire

Did you regain your confidence after seeing this card, or did you draw this card because you regained your confidence?

Sudo Ken understood that this was hope itself for him.

"Ada!"

"Activate [Greedy Pot Full of Gold]. At the start of your Main Phase 1, you can randomly banish 3 or 6 face-down cards from your Extra Deck. For every 3 cards banished, draw 1. After activating this card, you cannot draw cards using card effects until the end of this turn."

"I exclude 6 extra cards and draw two cards!"

Oh no, this kid is addicted to pot.

You Feng shook his head. In this world, the side effects of the Strong Gold Pot were actually greater than in the original world.

Not to mention that the [Greed Pot] itself is still there, under the 15 perk rules, the perk discarded from the Strong Golden Pot is truly useless. Besides, there are better pots available. However, since [Super Athlete] doesn't rely on perks, and pots like this have a higher strength limit, this isn't a big deal.

"Then I activate [Reincarnation of the Dead], send a card from my hand to the Graveyard, and add the monster in the Graveyard to my hand."

Just after making a profit with the pot, Ken Sudo started to exchange two for one again.

"I add Player Nine and a Half to my hand, then activate the effect of [New Female Warrior] I just sent to the Graveyard. Banish this card from the Graveyard, then target 1 Warrior-Type EARTH monster in your Graveyard and add that monster to your hand."

"I add the Player and Leader to my hand, then Normal Summon Nine and a Half Player, activate the Stadium's effect, and add [Super Athlete Fearless Dunker] to my hand."

"At this time, I activate the Trap [Chained Dragon Flame], targeting 1 Fire monster on the field. Equip this card to that monster as if it were an Equip Card that increases its ATK by 700. Afterwards, you can change 1 Effect Monster on the field to face-down Defense Position."

Jonouchi opened a cover card that Charlemagne might like and performed a Moon Book on the number nine and a half player.

Of course, the [Chained] series is also considered Jonouchi's signature trap card. In addition to the original Boomerang, there is also a Red-Eyes version, which is comparable to the Holy Shield in Yugi's hand.

Since the special recruitment effect of [Super Athlete] does not enter the chain, only by turning over the number nine and a half player now can the endless rotation chain be interrupted.

"At this time, I activate the Quick-Play Spell Card [Super Athlete Locker Room], which can only be activated by targeting 1 [Super Athlete] monster on your field or in your Graveyard. That monster returns to its owner's hand, and I regain 500 Life Points."

Ken Sudo: lp4100 → lp4600

"Well done, Sudo."

Jonouchi smiled and nodded, waiting for Sudō to continue. While the locker room still had its effects to deal with, Super Athlete was a deck that was quite vulnerable to summons, so this interruption was still successful.

"After that, I show any number of [Super Athlete] monsters in my hand to my opponent, return them to the deck, shuffle them, and draw as many cards from my deck as I can return to the deck. I do not reveal my hand."

Due to the effect of the Strong Gold Pot, Sudo Ken did not change his hand cards, although his three hand cards were actually clear, and there was no card among them that would allow him to continue to develop.

"Open the face card [Return of the Front], and you can activate it by targeting 1 monster in your Graveyard, Special Summoning that monster in Defense Position to revive the Free Attacker."

The effect of the gymnasium is also triggered. It must be said that although the attack increase effect is permanent, it is automatically triggered once per round, so the second effect of the venue is often wasted in this way.

"You can only activate this card if a monster is Special Summoned by activating [Flame Sword Dance]. Special Summon [Flame Swordsman] or a Level 7 or lower Fusion Monster with its card name from your Extra Deck. Afterwards, you can change 1 face-up monster on the field to face-down Defense Position."

"This is a symbol of my friendship with Yugi. Come, the phantom of magic and the sword of fire—[Knight of Black Flame]."

[Black Flame Knight (6*) Dark] [Warrior/Fusion/Effect ATK:2200 DEF:800]

The crossed blue flames enveloped the free attacker, trapping him in a cage constructed by the blue flames.

But at this moment, there is another [Super Athlete] on Sudo Ken's field.

As long as there is a [Super Athlete] Summon or Special Recruit, the player and leader can jump from his hand and explode a card on the field.

The player and team leader swung his baseball bat and hit a beautiful curve ball that passed through the layers of flames and hit the face of the Extreme Flame Swordsman, then shattered with a loud bang.

Strike Out!

"By the effect of [Flying Flame Dragon], if this card is sent to the Graveyard, you can activate this effect by adding 1 [Flying Flame Dragon] Spell or Trap Card from your Deck to your hand."

Jonouchi smiled and shook his head, searching for a [Flying Dragon Flame Fusion]. The search for Flying Flame Dragon was very limited, limited to only three cards, and one of them was [Flame Swordsman]'s signature weapon, [Flying Dragon Flame], which was completely defeated by [Flying Dragon Flame Fusion], also an Equipment Spell.

But what's interesting is that after [Flying Dragon Flame] is equipped with [Flying Dragon Flame], the attack power is exactly 2500 points, which is the same as the protagonist's ace monster except for a certain card-playing tights man.

"Returner and leader, Special Summon [Super Athlete Fearless Dunker]."

[Super Athlete Fearless Dunker (7 Stars)] [Warrior/Effect ATK:2500 DEF:1800]

The [Super Athlete] cards have a clear division of labor. Some are responsible for "passing" and transiting, some are responsible for defensive interference, and some are responsible for scoring and breaking through to end the game.

"Then attack the [Black Flame Knight] with the Dunk Hand!"

Sudo Ken raised his fist and shouted, and the broom-haired super athlete wearing sunglasses in the Monster Zone also jumped high. The blue light ball in his hand burst into light and slammed heavily on the Black Flame Knight's shield, then broke through the shield and successfully destroyed it.

However, a pitch-black flame spread in the shadows, and accompanied by a deep dark blue flame, a warrior with golden armor and a sickle appeared in front of Jonouchi wordlessly.

"Damage to this card's controller caused by the Black Flame Knight battle becomes 0."

"When this card is destroyed by battle and sent to the Graveyard, Special Summon 1 [Phantom Knight] from your Deck or Hand."

[Phantom Knight (8*) Light] [Warrior/Effect ATK:2800 DEF:2000]

Jonouchi explained that even though it was just an illusion, the warrior beside him also possessed powerful fighting power that was not afraid of anyone.

Sudo Ken was a little stunned, then nodded with a wry smile.

Dunk Hand actually has an effect where, when it inflicts battle damage to your opponent, it targets 1 card on the field and destroys that card.

However, due to the ability of the Black Flame Knight, Jonouchi, who was not damaged in the battle, would naturally not be blown up by Sudo Ken.

Just as Sudo Ken was about to end the battle, he saw Jonouchi shaking his finger, and the old flames on the field suddenly rose up, and then the flame prison that trapped the free attacker suddenly shrank.

Bathed in flames, the extremely fiery swordsman stood with his arms folded, as if the leader's previous perfect shot was also an illusion.

"[Flame Sword Dance]'s other effect: During your opponent's Battle Phase, you can banish this card from your Graveyard and Tribute 1 face-down Defense Position monster you or your opponent controls. Special Summon 1 [Flame Swordsman] or a monster with its card name from your Deck or Extra Deck."

[Extreme Blaze Swordsman (8 Stars) Flame] [Warrior/Fusion/Effect ATK:2800 DEF:1600]

In a trance, Sudo Ken seemed to see that not only was there such a fire swordsman who pursued perfection and was indomitable, but also behind Jonouchi, he stood on the top of the mountain with his arms folded calmly.

As the saying goes, one should look up to a lofty mountain. Until this moment, Sudo Ken did not understand how big the gap was between himself and his teacher.

In fact, his dueling skills were not as weak as he thought.

But in previous exams, he either acted impatiently or did things perfunctorily, often treating duels as no big deal and just muddling through.

Therefore, the deck will not respond to him.

But now, Jonouchi obviously didn't give his all, so why couldn't he even consume a bit of his LP?

Duel, like his beloved basketball, is a sport, but he has unknowingly forgotten the Olympic spirit that should be engraved in the hearts of all athletes.

This is what he really should not lose no matter what.

Chapter 94: Dropouts

"Activate the effect of Nine and a Half Player to return Fearless Dunk to your hand and Special Summon it from your hand."

"That's it, my turn is over."

Ken Sudo made one last, but better-than-nothing move to end his turn.

Sudo Ken: 2 cards in hand, 1 monster, 1 magic trap. Venue: [Super Athlete Stadium]

"My turn, draw a card."

Jonouchi looked at Sudo Ken and smiled.

"Probably, this is the last round."

"Even if I'm a teacher, I won't give up easily."

Sudo Ken looked at Jonouchi seriously.

"Then I'll wait and see."

"Activate [Chained Dragon Flame] by banishing it from the Graveyard. Return monsters from your hand, field, or Graveyard to the Deck as Fusion Materials, and Fusion Summon 1 Fire-Attribute Warrior-Type or Dragon-Type Fusion Monster. Monsters Fusion Summoned by this effect are destroyed during the End Phase."

"Fighting Flame Dragon, transform into a sublimated sword and stir up the fire of fighting spirit! With the effect of the chained flying dragon flame, I will return [Flame Swordsman] and [Flying Flame Dragon Flying Dragon Flame] from the graveyard to the deck and Fusion Summon - [Fighting Flame Dragon]!"

"Activate the effect of Fighting Flame Dragon, targeting 1 Warrior-Type Fusion Monster you control, and equip this card to that monster as if it were an Equip Spell Card."

[Flame Swordsman (8 Stars)] [Warrior/Fusion/Effect ATK: 2800 → 3500 DEF: 1600]

"The effect of [Extreme Blaze Swordsman] is to destroy player number nine and a half and deal 500 points of basic damage."
