Yu-Gi-Oh, the tenth generation of card-playing simulator!

Representative of the Western Branch: Osin O'Brien;

Representative of the Southern Branch - Jim Claude Cook.

"Wow, these guys look like they can really fight."

By the time the principal finished reading, the audience had already burst into applause three times in succession. At this time, Judai was looking at Amon, the hedgehog-haired young man with glasses, the serious O'Brien, and Jim carrying the crocodile "Kallen" on the stage, and his eyes showed an eager expression.

"There are three schools in the east, south and west, so the next one should be the northern branch." Wanzhangmu began to guess the next character to appear.

As expected, Samejima read out the name of the last student: "Next, please welcome the representative of the Northern Branch - John Anderson!"

"This name..."

"He's exactly the same guy we met on the rooftop before."

"I remember now. He should be the successor of the [Gemmon] deck. Legend has it that the deck was made from seven gemstones collected by the former Roman Emperor Caesar..."

"Is his background so powerful?" Wanzhangmu's introduction made Judai dumbfounded.

"Indeed, our group once tried to acquire this deck." A hint of reminiscence flashed across Wanzhangmu's face. "But with the increasing emphasis on card synergies these days, the strength of this deck, which is more symbolic than practical, is uncertain..."

As the few people were communicating, they began to applaud politely, but unlike before when Samejima read out the representative's name, this time there was no response from the backstage.

"Where are the people..."

"what happened..."

“Why is there no one here…”

"Oh, I'm so sorry for being late! I'm a complete idiot with directions and couldn't find the way for a while."

It seemed that John heard Jiaodao on the stage calling his name before. He touched the back of his head with an apologetic look on his face and quickly joined the team of branch school representatives on the stage.

"Pfft, this guy looks a lot like Judai-kun." Asuka, who had been sitting in the back, suddenly smiled when Samejima reintroduced the other party.

"Ah?" Judai looked at the other person in confusion: "How are they similar?"

"I'm always late for formal events."

Judai: Σ(っ°Д °;)っ

...

"The next person to be introduced is the last person to join the Duel Academy. He is no longer a student, but an experienced professor. Let us now welcome Professor Cobra from the Western Branch with applause!" After the introduction of the four branch representatives was completed, Samejima finally began to introduce the last person to appear today.

Amidst the warm applause from the audience, this extremely sturdy middle-aged man strode to the front of the ceremony stage.

This person has a straight mouth, a square nose, and a resolute face, giving people a sense of awe without even being angry.

However, such a majestic man has an extremely exaggerated crew cut, and his bangs, which were styled by Morse, are a full 20 centimeters long, which is really surprising.

After nodding to Principal Samejima, the new professor began his speech with great energy:

"Everyone, today is my first time meeting you all. I should say hello and introduce myself here.

But I think even if you really do that, you won't make any progress at all. Compared to those boring topics, practical experience is more useful and direct, and this is also the teaching principle I have always implemented!"

"Duel Academy seems to have welcomed a teacher who speaks very directly." After hearing the teacher's speech on the stage, Judai couldn't help but give his own evaluation.

However, the expressions of the other students were not so good. The other party's remarks gave many people a bad feeling.

Cobra on the stage didn't care about the crowd's reaction and continued to speak to himself: "So, now I will immediately implement my policy and start a real combat duel."

"Nani?"

"When is the plan?"

Now, not only the students, but even Coach Chrollos and Napoleon were a little surprised. They never thought that a new professor would make such an arrangement at the beginning.

However, after seeing that Jiaodao did not raise any objections, the others did not dare to raise any objections and could only continue to watch the other party act.

"The candidates for the two warring parties are chosen by me alone. The first is John Anderson of the Northern Branch."

After being called by Professor Cobra, John from the branch team was a little surprised, but he still stood up calmly. As a leader of the northern branch, he was not afraid of any challenge.

"And the other opponent is..."

As Professor Cobra continued to speak, his eyes swept over each student on the steps below: "The one battling John is—Yujo Judai!"

"Ahaha, it's me?"

Judai stood up immediately after hearing his name. Although he was a little surprised, he was also happy to accept the duel.

"It's really exciting to be able to fight against a duelist who can see elves right at the beginning of the school year." The tenth generation happily held the duel disk and quickly came to the ceremony stage.

Professor Cobra was well prepared and took out two strangely shaped wristbands:

"This is my gift to you. It's a dueling bracelet equipped with a strength disclosure system. It can monitor a duelist's concentration, willpower, and judgment. I'll explain its other functions later. You'll wear it and duel in an hour."

After saying this, Professor Cobra left the auditorium in broad daylight amidst everyone's astonished gazes.

Chapter 251: The talking jade beast!

"This new teacher's behavior is so weird." Judai looked at Cobra's departing back and complained half-confusedly and half-helplessly.

However, since the other party was a newly hired professor at the academy, Judai was willing to give him some respect. After a brief discussion with the remaining professors, the students were transferred to the duel hall in the gymnasium to watch the match. By the time all the students had taken their seats, the duel requested by the other party was not far away.

"Judaei-sama! Come on!"

Taking advantage of the last period of time, Li, who was sitting in the audience seats, began to wave desperately at Judai on the duel stage, cheering him on. His energetic look made many people curious and look in.

"Haha, I didn't expect that you are so popular with women, Judai." John on the stage saw this scene and immediately joked to the other party with a smile.

"No, no, the relationship between her and me may not be what you think." Judai on the other side wiped the non-existent cold sweat from his forehead and quickly retorted.

"Really? But I don't think so." John, who was debugging the duel disk, continued to speak with a smile.

"Okay, let's stop talking for now. Let's start the duel quickly. The agreed time is almost here."

"So soon..." John's expression immediately revealed a hint of anticipation upon hearing the news: "Then let's get started quickly. I've been looking forward to this day of dueling with you for a long time!"

"Well, I'm actually pretty excited to be able to fight against a spirit user right at the beginning of the school year." Judai, who also raised the duel disk, responded with a bright smile.

"Duel!"*2

When Kuroros, the referee, tossed the coin symbolizing who came first between the two, John took the initiative in the duel.

"Then I won't hold back!" John, after drawing his cards, revealed a monster card first: "I Normal Summon [Jewel Beast Emerald Turtle] in Defense Position!"

As John called out, an emerald green gem appeared on the duel field.

"boom!"

As the gem shattered, a turtle-like monster inlaid with emeralds slowly revealed its figure.

[Jade Turtle/Star Level 600/Water/Aqua/Attack 2000/Defense ]

"Wow, is that the Jewelmon?"

"It looks really beautiful."

"I just heard someone say that this deck is unique, just like the tenth generation deck..."

"Well... I was sleeping soundly, John, where did you call me from?" Just as people in the audience were discussing, the emerald turtle on the stage also moved. At this moment, it was making a slight complaint to its host.

"This is the Duel Academy I told you about before. How is it? It's pretty good, right?" John greeted his friend with a smile.

"Oh? Is this the Duel Academy? It seems that there are indeed a lot of kids who look quite good." Upon hearing this, the Jade Turtle looked around with his eyes hidden in his shell.

"Please, Jade Turtle, you have to use extra strength today." John pointed at Yuki Judai across from him and continued, "Today's opponent is very different from what you expected. If you're not careful, you'll be killed."

"I see... That child's eyes revealed an overwhelming confidence. John, it seems you've found a formidable opponent." Feeling a unique sense of oppression from Judai, the Jade Turtle narrowed its eyes slightly and immediately assumed a fighting stance. "Then I'll give it my all, too!"

"That's amazing, John. Can all your elves talk?" Judai, who had listened to the entire conversation between the Emerald Turtle and John, couldn't help but show a look of surprise on his face.

The [Gemmon] on the opposite side actually has the same ability to communicate with people as his heroes.

"Yeah," John nodded and introduced Judai: "[Holy Beasts] are my friends, no, they are my family."

"Treating Duel Monsters as family members? This idea is really interesting." After hearing the other party's words, Judai's favorability towards him increased greatly at this moment.

"What are they doing..." Jianshan, who was sitting in the audience, looked at the two people who started chatting just by summoning a monster, and a look of confusion appeared on his face.

"Nothing, just chatting about some elves-related things." Wanzhangmu hammered away the disturbing Huang beside him and told him the answer that Jianshan wanted.

"Is that all..."

"Face three cards and end this round." While Jianshan was still confused, John on the stage had already completed all the operations of this round.

"...A deck that's a serious pitfall?" The sudden scene made Judai's smile stop abruptly. Although his previous meetings with John were extremely speculative, this did not rule out the possibility that the other party was a serious pitfall player.

He once heard Hua Benxue tell a story about a man with a simple face who she met in the second round of the Swiss round of her first offline competition.

In the first round, when the opponent was at a disadvantage, he kept asking about the effects of the Migrant Bird card and various precautions to prove the "fact" that he had never fought against Migrant Bird.

When she really believed in the opponent and did not choose to trade in cards such as [Cosmic Cyclone] and [Lightning Storm] in the sideboard round, the opponent used [Brand Fusion] to pile up [Bansi] in the graveyard in the second round, teaching her a good lesson.

"So, we must never let our guard down at any time." After muttering to himself, Judai carefully drew the top card from the deck.

"On my turn, Normal Summon [Elemental Hero Solid Man]!"

With a flash of white light, the first heroic monster of the tenth generation, wearing armor, came to the field.

"Using the effect of [Solid Man], I can Special Summon [Elemental Hero Shadow Mist Girl] from my hand."

After the Shadow Mist Girl, whose entire body was hidden in the mist, appeared, Judai also obtained the card he wanted - [Masked Transformation].

"Then, the Spell Card [Fusion] uses the [Solid Man] on the field and the [Liquid Man] in your hand as materials to Fusion Summon [Elemental Hero Sunrise]."

Facing the rising sunset, [Miracle Fusion] entered the Tenth Generation's hand, and the effect of [Liquid Man] made him perform the filter operation of drawing two and throwing one on the spot.

"Next, I will banish the Solid Man and Liquid Man from the graveyard, and using the effect of Miracle Fusion, Fusion Summon Absolute Zero Man."

The icy wind brought the Silver Hero guarding the snow, and the card that Judai had searched for before also came into being: "The last one is the quick-attack magic [Mask Transformation]. The target is - [Elemental Hero Absolute Zero]!"

Chapter 252: The Jade Beasts Appeared One After Another

"C1, [Masked Hero Acid]'s appearance effect destroys all Magic Traps in your backfield; C2, [Elemental Hero Absolute Zero]'s departure effect destroys all monsters in your frontfield."

As the masked hero wearing blue armor and holding a water spray gun appeared on the stage, Judai immediately used the effects of the two hero monsters.

"Hey, John, I've been suggesting you put some cards that can destroy your opponent's monsters." Faced with the two attacks that followed, the [Emerald Turtle] in the front field sighed repeatedly.

"Hahaha, but if you really do that, it's like blocking your opponent before you even see their potential." John clenched his palms and repeated his long-held belief: "I've always wanted to see my opponent's strategy. In a duel, we can fully demonstrate each other's strengths. This is the duel I yearn for."

"Aha..." It was the first time Judai had heard someone say that. While he was surprised, he also had a different opinion. "John, your idea is quite interesting. But have you ever considered that a card duel is meant to be won and lost between duelists? By allowing your opponent to easily reach the end, aren't you betraying the elves who fight for you?"

"No, I've actually been working hard for victory with everyone!" John flipped over a card hidden in the back of the duel arena. "Chain three, activate the Trap Card [Mine Blast]! This card's effect allows me to send five cards from my deck to the Graveyard. As a trade-off, I won't be able to draw cards during the next turn's Draw Phase."

"It's actually a precise graveyard stacking..." Seeing John transport five card resources to the graveyard in one breath, Judai's expression was also solemn. However, he has now completed the terminal, and the rest of John's cards were also completely destroyed under his own tactics of turning zero into acid water. The current situation has reached the point where the arrow is on the string and has to be fired.

"I declare the battle phase and use..."
