When a card game club is pulled into the Yu-Gi-Oh! world by the system

Heavy, labored breathing emanated from them; an outsider might have thought they were watching porn.

"Show your sins!"

His finger lightly touched the card at the top of the deck, named "World of Sin." In an instant, a psychedelic halo of black and white filled their vision. The monotonous yet conflicting colors formed an incredibly complex world, taking their souls to the other side of that world.

"I have a feeling this school will cause some trouble this new semester. I should prepare accordingly. Besides the regular new students, I've heard representatives from other schools are transferring, and Principal Samejima even poached a new professor. Can't he just stay out of it...?"

Seeing that all the students here had stood up like puppets, Chang Yan sighed.

He had a premonition that the school would be thrown into turmoil again by the principal's impulsive actions.

"As expected, we shouldn't have too high expectations for these students. But that's understandable; they're just a group of ordinary students. If it were Yuki Judai, he might unleash his full power and turn the tables, but that only applies to him alone."

Looking at this group

"Hey, I remember you said they were all very promising kids at first, Master. Why have you changed your mind now?"

A petite yet charming girl emerged from the void, waving her hand in front of the group, seemingly wanting to see their reaction.

"Potential, but it's just potential. Manjoume and Kenzan are probably the better ones among them. One gained the recognition of the elves through perseverance, and the other is even more amazing, mixing in dinosaur fossil bones. I really don't know how he did it."

He pulled the girl into his arms and gently stroked her soft, delicate cheeks.

"But they haven't experienced much hardship, so their minds and spirits aren't very firm. They're easily swayed and controlled. In their current state, they probably can't even withstand my voice. Let's go, they'll be awake soon."

Amid the girl's gasps, Chang Yan swept her up in a princess carry and happily carried her back to his dormitory.

You ask why Chang Yan suddenly became so bold?

Do you really think he just spent his whole vacation there playing around?

A dark glint flashed in the eyes of the security guard in the monitoring room as he began to operate the system.

"Huh, what were we just doing?"

"Get tired of sitting and stretch your body. Okay, let's continue. Everyone has one life, it's my turn next!"

Several students once again immersed themselves in the game, but a similar dark light flashed in their eyes.

Duel Academy?

This place has been transformed into a den of iniquity...

Chapter 413 The Transfer Student and Professor Cobra

The current Hearthstone ranked ladder is driving me crazy. I've tried three different decks and managed to get 100 wins and gold every day, but my ranking hasn't changed at the end of the day. It's a cycle of winning and losing, and I just can't get past rank 6. I'm really going crazy.

In a few more chapters, Sister Yu, whom you've all been waiting for, will be here.

----------

The whole world seemed to be dead, with an endless desert stretching out under a gloomy sky.

The usually bustling school was completely silent, as still as an abandoned haunted house.

A chilly wind swept over his body, causing some sand and gravel to scatter.

Yuki Judai stared blankly at the surrounding desert and the desolate school, somewhat at a loss...

However, with that distant glimpse, he seemed to see some figures.

Running fast across the desert is no easy feat, but he couldn't care less about that now.

But when he got closer, he discovered that the so-called "figures" were just stone statues, but the faces of these statues...

"Wanzhangmu, Asuka, Xiang, Kenshan,..."

(Incidentally, Daichi Misawa is not mentioned at all in the original work; his existence has been completely forgotten.)

These were stone statues of people he knew, but when he reached out to touch them, they vanished in the wind. A terrifying thought surfaced in his mind at that moment—

Will they die like this too?

Logically speaking, given his personality, he would never think like that, but for some reason, this idea is deeply rooted in his mind and cannot be shaken off.

No, everyone will be fine...

He was panting heavily when he saw a cross, and his heart skipped a beat—a cross stuck in the ground like a tombstone, standing there solemnly and silently.

What made his heart pound wasn't being frightened, but rather the red hat that lay quietly in front of the cross, a hat he recognized very well.

One chilling and terrifying thought after another rushed out of his head. Yuki Judai ran over breathlessly and wiped away the sand that was obscuring the writing on the cross with trembling hands.

The moment the writing was fully revealed, he froze on the spot as if struck by lightning.

Tsukishiro Michimitsu was buried here.

Then, he opened his eyes and looked at the familiar scene around him with disbelief.

Is it a dream...?

"What a terrible dream... Wait, what's that?"

Seeing a small, purplish-red kitten peeking out from behind a fence, Yuki Jaden tilted his head.

--------------

"The duel will begin immediately in one hour!"

Professor Cobra, who transferred from another branch school, decided to immediately hold a special duel at the new semester's introductory meeting. He asked the duelists, Jaden Yuki and the newcomer John Anderson, to wear a strange bracelet before leaving the auditorium.

"What a unique professor..."

Hearing his classmate say this, Chang Yan wholeheartedly agreed. However, he was also a little surprised. He thought the professor would ask him to duel, but instead, he chose Judai and John.

Oh, by the way, after the new semester's evaluations, Marufuji Sho was promoted from the yellow dormitory to the blue dormitory, successfully becoming an elite member of the Duel Academy.

John Anderson, a duelist from Northern Europe, represents the Duel Academy Northern Branch. He's also a character who appears later in the anime but surpasses the original supporting characters in their friendship with the protagonist; arguably, he's Jaden Yuki's closest confidant in the original work. Their personalities are perfectly aligned, and their teamwork is impeccable.

While the original group did grow, like Marufuji Sho who eventually made it to the Blue Dorm, they were still no match for Belfast, Overlord, and Darkness! These transfer students were truly one against a whole bunch! It's beyond words!

"Disclosure duel, a public duel?"

As the saying goes, there's a bad feeling. He felt his ominous premonition had come true. Was this professor, invited by the principal, going to cause trouble right at the start of the semester?

"As expected, this guy named John is using the legendary Crystal Beast deck!"

The well-informed Manjoume exclaimed immediately upon seeing the deck John was using.

The Jade Beast, just like its name suggests, is as precious as a gemstone.

In an ancient country that believed in the power of gems, there were seven priceless gems. These gems were later salvaged from a merchant ship that had sunk to the bottom of the sea. Pegasus eventually obtained them and made them into seven "Sapphire Beast" monsters. Therefore, there is only one "Sapphire Beast" monster card in the world, and it is known as the "world's most precious deck".

Such valuable cards naturally attracted countless suitors, but this time Pegasus firmly stated that he would give the deck to whoever chose it, refusing to sell it regardless of the offer, even offending many jewelry tycoons at one point. Pegasus was very resolute in this regard, stating that whoever chose the deck, he would naturally hand it over.

Of course, as for the cleanup work after offending certain people, Eunuch Cao was quite pleased to take over, since he couldn't just keep holding the title and do nothing forever.

On a whim, he went to watch a youth tournament, and at that moment he was shocked to discover that the gem beasts were actively releasing their power, trying to approach the boy named "John".

Upon observation, Pegasus discovered that this was indeed a child with good qualities, so he directly handed the deck to the boy. The boy did not disappoint him, treating the elves as family members, relying on and trusting each other.

After Cao Gonggong threw the person who tried to forcibly steal the deck into the sewer to bathe for the fifth time, everyone knew that this young Pegasus was a threat, and anyone who wanted to mess with him had to think twice about how much weight they had.

(Haven't checked in a while, and I just realized that there's now an Ultimate Crystal Beast! It's not a god, it's a beast. How long ago was this buffed up...?)

Ultimate Jewel Beast Rainbow Dragon

Star rating: 8

Attribute: Light

Attack: 3000

Defense: 0

Effect: ①: This effect can be activated when a "Crystal Beast" monster declares an attack during a battle. Special Summon this card from your hand.

"This guy possesses an incredibly deep bond with monsters. Unlike the inevitable fateful connection between Jaden and E.HERO, and unlike the destiny-bound relationship between me and D.HERO, it's a mutual trust, a complete entrustment of one's back to the other..."

Ed watched the duel and uttered this remark.

Since arriving at this school, he has found that it has been full of surprises. In addition to Judai and Tsukishiro Doman, there is Kenzan who resisted Saiou's brainwashing with his dinosaur DNA and his own strength, almost swept through the Blue Dormitory after being controlled, and then broke free from control with his willpower.

"Really... Oh, what about Tsukimori? What do you say about that?"

He was very curious about the sword mountain in front of him. After thinking for a moment, he looked at the young man wearing a red hat in the distance.

"I knew you'd ask this. He's the one I understand the least..."

Ed straightened his white suit, maintaining the same attire even at this moment.

"How should I put it? It's like a highly skilled duelist casually playing around with a newly acquired deck, without any chemistry or synergy. In today's internet slang, he and his deck have no soul."

"Huh? No way, he's obviously that strong!"

Kenzan was a little incredulous. That guy was ridiculously strong. Although he had recently lost to Shenwu Shou, he was still terrified by the scene of him sweeping through the entire dormitory.

"That's what proves his strength..."

At this point, Edward had lost all desire to continue the conversation.

All he said was implying one thing—he suspected that Tsukishiro Doman's real ace deck wasn't those few decks at all.

What a terrifying guy; his true strength is simply unfathomable...

But this raises a new question—if this guy is so strong, why is he hiding his deck and coming to this school? Is he after something at the school? Or is his deck unusable? Was it stolen? Or would using it cause problems, like—

Would that expose my identity?

What kind of decks will give away your identity as soon as you use them? Those are definitely decks with distinctive and unique characteristics, like this Gem Beast deck.

Ed felt he had grasped some key points, but he could only keep these thoughts to himself.

He wasn't planning on provoking Tsukimori Doman now. If he wasn't mistaken, Doman was definitely a dark duelist, and if his investigation into Doman was discovered, the consequences would be unimaginable...

However, it shouldn't be a problem to go back and check which decks are unique but have disappeared for a while...

Ed's long career as a dark hero has honed his intelligence and intuition, and now he could easily make a living as a full-time detective.

With his looks and charisma, he might actually be able to earn millions a day as a male escort...

Returning to the duel—
