Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh!?

Chapter 849: Chapter 822: End of the Semester

Everyone: "..."

This development was really unexpected for everyone.

Even Keihei, who had the most confidence in Yugen, thought by the end of the duel that Yugen had given up on winning. His performance really seemed like it; this duel was entirely just to provoke his opponent and fulfill his task of awakening the Rainbow Dragon, with no intention of winning otherwise.

Who would have thought he actually drew a few seemingly meaningless cards during his opponent’s turn, and then a wave of a rigged coin toss just took John and the Rainbow Dragon away...

John was dumbfounded.

Actually, before the duel started, he didn’t even think about winning or losing, nor did he believe he had much chance to defeat the Duel King. But just in the previous turn, he truly thought he was going to win.

Even the Rainbow Dragon was awakened, the atmosphere was heightened to this level, yet this sudden change left his old back aching...

Then he couldn’t help but look at the card on his Duel Disc.

From Yugen, the "Secret Ceremony Power 0 - The Fool" card he couldn’t get rid of until the end.

Now thinking about it, this Fool is not foolish at all; it was the MVP of this game...

He even couldn’t help worrying that maybe this last move might have sent the Rainbow Dragon back to the stone tablet in anger?

It didn’t seem entirely impossible. After all, the Rainbow Dragon, being a divine-level monster, having slept for so many years, the first thing it sees upon awakening is such an environment; it might just feel despair over the contemporary dark dueling scene and go back to sleep...

"John?"

John, who was lost in thought, was brought back to reality by Yugen’s voice.

"Ah, sorry... Ah, haha."

John smiled sheepishly and picked up the Fool card on his Duel Disc, handing it over to Yugen.

"Mr. Yugen’s duel really is just like the rumors say... unique, hahaha."

Yugen chuckled. He knew John was still being polite, and the prestigious title of Duel King likely played a part. If it were another person dueling now, it might have turned into a physical confrontation.

"Your duel was also quite impressive." Yugen courteously expressed his appreciation, "I witnessed the extraordinary bond between you and the Jades. freēwēbηovel.c૦m

Keep that passionate heart, and your future achievements will be limitless."

"Thank you."

John shook hands with him.

Yet, an Eye inexplicably appeared at the back, murmuring softly: "Being tortured by an evil existence like you and still retaining a passionate heart surely is quite the talent..."

But as soon as the words were out, that big eye suddenly shivered with a chill, as if sensing some kind of murderous intent.

Instinctively turning his head, he found a silver-haired, white-robed mage with an ethereal, fairy-like coolness coldly looking at him, skillfully twirling a magic wand in her hand.

Eye shivered all over, not daring to gossip anymore.

"I was wrong, I won’t dare to speak ill of the master again."

The girl then smiled gently.

Oddly, she hasn’t said a word all this time, and even now her smile is so sweet and lovely. Yet, for some reason, Eye naturally sensed some unknown danger hidden within this sweet smile, as if there were tens of thousands of sharp knives behind the smile.

It suddenly thought, perhaps when looking at Yugen’s smile, duelist opponents probably feel the same way.

Elves really do follow their masters...

In any case, the work of discovering the Rainbow Dragon was successful.

Yugen himself wasn’t particularly interested in the Jade Card Deck because, in his impression, the Jades seemed like idle fish no matter what version or environment they were in.

But of course, they have development potential, and he also remembered that the Jades had quite a few new cards in the future. Though even with upgrades, they couldn’t keep up with the rapidly escalating environment, never able to escape the idle fish status.

Nevertheless, Yugen agreed to collaborate with Beckas and the International Fantasy Association. He would also set up a special research group for the Jades in his own lab.

"Awesome, thank you, Mr. Yugen!"

John was quite pleased. ƒreewebɳovel.com

"Oh, right, the Academy mentioned to me that next semester there’s an exchange program to the main academy." John excitedly said, "I’ll definitely visit your lab then.

Please teach me more, Mr. Yugen!"

"Alright."

Yugen shook his hand again.

He remembered, in the original story, John was supposed to appear officially next semester.

Not just John. Led by Professor Kobra, an external school faculty member, O’Brien who uses Volcanics, Jim with Fossils, John with Jade Beasts, and Ammon Galem, the big heir of the Galem Financial Group, all these heavyweight characters made their appearance in this season.

As the plot unfolds, it becomes apparent that all those visiting from outside schools, whether part of the righteous or evil factions, were not ones to be underestimated. Each possessed extraordinary skills, nearly all capable of overpowering everyone else in the academy’s main protagonist group, except Judai, with levels of power higher than that of the GX main group.

Some even had strength indistinguishable from Judai’s power at that time.

This semester was thus nearing its end, looking like the exchange program was almost upon us.

Yugen knew that many of these exchange participants came with hidden intentions. Some like John were just pure students genuinely here to interact, but among the rest were people willing to sacrifice all students to obtain Demon Power to revive loved ones, undercover professors appearing as faculty but serving as double agents sent by Beckas, and the heir Ammon Galem coming to investigate dark forces...

However, the core of it all remains Professor Kobra. Enticed by Yubel, he hosted the duel activities that siphoned off students’ life forces, being the mastermind of everything.

The semester was also nearing its end.

A few days ago, the GX Tournament, the largest event of the semester, concluded. What remained was only the final exams.

Judai was greatly shocked when he heard the news.

"Ah? The tournament’s over?" Judai was surprised, "When was the finals? How come I didn’t know?"

"Right when we went to bother Merlot..."

Yugen was flipping through a batch of newly acquired cards without looking up.

"I thought you knew."

"I didn’t know... Damn, I missed the finals, and lost so many duels I haven’t fought yet... Doesn’t Yugen mean he’s out of ranking too?"

Yugen laughed: "I didn’t participate at all."

"Ah?" Judai blinked a few times, "Wasn’t every student required to participate?"

"I told the principal I’ve been too busy lately... Besides, a tournament of this level feels like bullying elementary school kids." Yugen shrugged.

"Well... For you, maybe it really is."

Judai rested his chin in his hand, looking dispirited.

"Damn, I missed so many duels, lost a billion opportunities..."

Yugen chuckled.

"Really? Then I can introduce a duelist for you to spar with; I assure you’ll enjoy dueling him."

Judai’s eyes lightened up immediately, eagerly leaning in: "Who is it, who is it? A legendary duelist?"

"Not exactly. But... should say it’s a legendary deck." Yugen smiled mysteriously, "Judai, have you heard of ’Jade Beasts’?"
