Yu-Gi-Oh! The Pitfall Hero

Around the venue, several thick pipes can be seen connecting to equipment on the ground, seemingly serving to enhance the virtual images.

Using the Duel Disk for duels here seems to offer a better experience.

Inside the venue, two students wearing Obelisk blue uniforms could be seen, seemingly discussing something.

"This is... the latest type of dueling arena equipment!"

"The audio equipment and motion-sensing system are all the latest components!"

Marufuji Sho adjusted his glasses, somewhat incredulous at the sight before him.

"This is great! I really want to have a duel here!" Looking at the high-end equipment in front of him, Marufuji Sho couldn't help but show envy in his eyes.

"We'll probably use this in class, right?" Yusei said somewhat uncertainly.

"No need to wait for class! Let's try it out now!" Upon seeing the venue, Jaden Yuki instantly became excited, intending to experience the feeling of dueling in a dedicated arena right now.

"Huh? Is it okay? Don't we need to ask the teacher for permission?" Marufuji Sho started to worry again.

"What are you talking about! We're students here, using this space isn't something we can take for granted..."

"That won't do!" Before Yuki Judai could finish speaking, he was interrupted by someone.

Two students who were just a short distance away saw Yusei and his two companions about to use the area and rushed over to stop them. One of the students, a boy named A who was wearing glasses, was the one who had interrupted Yusei earlier.

"Hey! This isn't a place for Osiris-Red's bad students!" Another dark-skinned boy, B, saw the three men's red uniforms and his eyes revealed a look of disdain.

"Look behind you!" Boy B pointed to the top of the aisle.

Following his finger, Yusei and the other two turned around and looked at the passageway behind them.

Above the entrance, there was indeed a circular stone disc hanging. The disc was engraved with the emblem of the "Obelisk Titan," signifying that this was the territory of Obelisk Blue.

"Seeing the emblem over there, you know you've come to the wrong place, right?" Boy A said, hands on his hips, a smug look on his face.

"Sorry! We don't know about this..." Faced with the two's aggressive attitude, the timid Marufuji Sho decisively chose to back down.

“Let’s go back to the dorm…” Marufuji Sho said to Yuki Judai and Yusei.

Yusei glanced at him but didn't say anything. However, his face clearly showed disappointment.

(The Phoenix's alternate version card, [Destiny Hero Destroyer Phoenix], is pretty strong; it feels like a Pankrasen Horned Dragon that can resurrect infinitely...)

056 Obelisk's "Superior Men"

"Who do you two think you are? What right do you have to kick us out?" Yusei ignored Marufuji Sho's words, crossed his arms, and gave the arrogant two people in front of him a disdainful look.

If they had calmly reasoned with Yusei and his companions from the beginning and explained that they had gone to the wrong place, Yusei would have chosen to understand.

But the two of them immediately adopted an attitude of superiority, and their tone of voice carried the disdain of the upper class for the lower class.

Faced with such people, Youxing decisively chose to teach them a lesson.

"I'm still a little annoyed, aren't I, Yusei?" Jaden Yuki said, a thoughtful expression on his face after hearing what the two of them said.

"What did you say!?"

"You two? Who do you think you're talking to?" Boys A and B were almost driven mad by Yusei's sarcastic words.

Are you kidding me? They're the elite of the Duel Academy, winners in life who've had a smooth journey since childhood. When did they become the ones being mocked by Osiris Red's mediocre students?

"Good grief! You're really going to try and get yourself into trouble!" Boy B rubbed his fists, seemingly preparing to unleash a direct attack on Yusei.

"Hehe~" Yusei responded to boy B's words with only a cold laugh.

Although he wasn't good at fighting, things would be different if his opponent was a pampered young master like him.

Whether it's card duels or real-person battles, Yusei has absolutely no reason to lose to his opponent.

"Wait, there's no need to fight! We can settle this with a duel, wouldn't that be better?" Seeing that Yusei seemed ready to beat up boy B, Jaden Yuki stepped forward and quickly pushed the two apart.

At this moment, Judai Yuki was thinking—what if the teacher found out about the fight? Then he would inevitably have to write a letter of apology...

"Who did I think it was? Aren't you candidate number 110 who defeated Professor Kunonos in the entrance exam?" Boy A adjusted his glasses and finally remembered that the person in front of him who was trying to break up the fight was Yuki Jaden, who was candidate number 110 who shone brightly in the entrance exam.

"Manjou-san! This guy is number 110 who beat Professor Kunonos!" Boy B shouted as soon as he heard Boy A say that.

A boy with a wild black hairstyle, wearing an Obelisk blue trench coat uniform, and referred to as "Manjoume" by boy B, was leaning back in his chair, pretending to doze off.

"Oh?"

After hearing what Boy B said, Manjoume's face showed an interested expression. He put down his crossed legs, stood up, and looked down at Yusei and the other two from his high position with a blank expression.

"Ah... I'm Judai Yuki, nice to meet you." Judai Yuki also noticed Manjoume standing up, and he waved to him, greeting him from his high vantage point.

"Uh...right, who was that guy again?" After greeting him, Yuki Judai realized that he didn't recognize the boy in the high place, so he quickly asked boy A for his name.

"Tsk!" Manjoume clicked his tongue when he heard Yuki Judai's thoughtless words. He felt that he had been underestimated by this "idiot".

Yusei & Marufuji Sho: "..."

This hot-blooded idiot, doesn't he ever think before he acts? Yusei was speechless at Jaden Yuki's behavior.

"You don't even recognize Manjoume?" Boy A's face showed a shocked expression, as if it was unbelievable that he didn't recognize the boy in the high place.

"Although we're both first-year students, Manjoume is the No. 1 elite among the middle school students!" Boy A said to the bewildered Yuki Judai in an exaggerated tone.

"That's right! That person is none other than the future Duel King, Jun Manjoume!" Boy B added, picking up where Boy A left off.

"Him?" Yusei's face showed strong skepticism when he heard the exaggerated tone of the two men's words.

"How strange?" Jaden Yuki crossed his arms, a puzzled expression on his face.

"Speaking of the Duel King, isn't that number one? And the number one in this academy, isn't that me?" Jaden Yuki said, pointing to himself with a proud expression.

“Um… Big brother, didn’t you lose to Yusei before? You should be in second place now.” Marufuji Sho tugged at the hem of Yuki Jaden’s clothes, correcting his mistake.

"Uh...it seems so..." Upon hearing Marufuji Sho's words, Yuki Judai scratched his head somewhat awkwardly.

"I don't care," Yusei shrugged, indicating that he had no interest in these so-called rankings.

"Hahahahahaha!!!"

"233~~~"

"Osiris-Red's poor student is really overestimating himself!"

"You think you can defeat Manjoume, who is number one?"

Boys A and B had nothing but doubt on their faces; they didn't believe a word Yusei and Jaden Yuki said.

"Be quiet!"

"Everyone, please stop arguing."

The two boys wanted to say something more, but were stopped by Manjoujun standing on the high ground.

"Manjoume-san?" Boy A's gaze shifted to Manjoume, who was high up.

"That guy is better than you guys!"

"Although I relied on luck (a lucky draw) during the entrance exam, I still managed to defeat that man from Chronos."

Manjoume pointed a finger at Yuki Judai, who was grinning foolishly, and at the same time, he glanced at Yusei, who had his arms crossed and eyes closed, seemingly resting.

“That’s not luck, it’s skill,” Judai Yuki retorted to Manjoume’s words.

"Heh... Can you show me that kind of strength here?" Wan Zhangmu's lips curled up, revealing an expression of someone who had spotted prey.

“Sure! I’m ready anytime!” Judai Yuki accepted Manjoume’s challenge without a second thought.

"Wait, let me go first. I've been really annoyed by these show-offs from Obelisk Blue ever since this." Seeing that Jaden Yuki and Manjoume seemed to be about to have a duel, Yusei, who had been resting with his eyes closed, interrupted them.

"Oh? I know Yuki Judai, but who are you?" Manjoume looked down at Yusei and said.

Yusei's aura exerted a powerful pressure on Manjoume, making it impossible for him to ignore him.

"Yusei is a powerful duelist who has defeated me in duels! If he makes a move, you're doomed!" Jaden Yuki said, hands on his hips, spouting nonsense at Manjoume.

"Big brother..." Marufuji Sho's attitude became increasingly timid as he saw the situation deteriorating.

"Oh? Then I'd like to see how you plan to beat me?" Manjoume crossed his arms, looking down arrogantly at Yusei below the stage. Their gazes clashed fiercely in the air...

057 New Student Welcome Party

"What are you doing?"

Just as Yusei and Manjoume were exchanging glances and preparing for their duel, a cold female voice broke the tension between them.

Everyone's gaze turned towards the direction from which the sound came.

A girl with long blonde hair, wearing an Obelisk blue uniform, walked in from the corridor.

The girl was tall and extremely beautiful, but her beautiful face was covered with an unyielding frost, as if she was dissatisfied with the conflict that had occurred among the people.

Obelisk blue uniforms come in two versions, one for men and one for women, both with a blue and white base color.

The boys' uniform was a trench coat with a hem, which was much more refined than the red and yellow uniforms and had an added touch of style.

The girls wore sleeveless tops with short skirts, exposing their arms and long legs, which accentuated their figures.

The girl who entered crossed her arms in front of her chest, a gesture that further accentuated the large fruit on her chest.

"Wow, so big... How can it be so big?" This was Yusei's first impression upon seeing the girl.

"Big" refers to the girl's clear eyes. What are you thinking?

"Ah! What a beautiful person..." Marufuji Sho said, blushing as he saw the blonde girl who came in.

"Oh?" Jaden Yuki remained expressionless, seemingly showing no interest in the girl.

Manjou glanced sideways at Shimoru Fujisho and pursed his lips.

"It's Tenjouin!"

"These newcomers are really too ignorant. I just wanted to tell them a little about how cruel this academy is."

Upon seeing the girl enter, Wan Zhangmu on the high platform immediately changed his demeanor, becoming visibly friendly, a stark contrast to the pretentious man he had been moments before.

Manjoume and the girl clearly knew each other; they were both students of Obelisk Blue, and the students in Blue's dormitory were selected from the outstanding graduates of the junior high school at Duel Academy.

Look at the tone of his voice, Wan Zhangmu is such a sycophant.

"It's almost time for the welcome party at the dormitory," the girl called Tenjouin by Manjou said to Manjou on the high platform.
