Yu-Gi-Oh!: I use an Orichalcos deck

As someone who has no money and can't do whatever he wants, Yuki can spend very little money on his card.

He didn't dare to open card packs, so he could only buy some individual cards.

But now things are different. He has 100,000 dollars in his duel disk, so he has to enjoy the thrill of opening packs!

When Yuki entered the card shop, he was completely dumbfounded...

So expensive, so expensive!

Each card pack costs 10,000 yuan, and Youji bought five, spending half of the 100,000 yuan directly.

No wonder the scholarships for students are so high, otherwise they probably wouldn't even be able to build a deck.

However, the shop assistant's explanation made him understand the reason. After all, the card contained the power of the spirits, making it an extraordinary item with extremely high value.

The price of the Duelist Academy cards is already quite reasonable; in the outside world, the price would probably be twice as high.

The shop assistant's words reminded Yuki of Ryuzaki from the DM series, who, as the runner-up in the national tournament, could only afford a Red-Eyes Black Dragon even after going bankrupt.

Therefore, it seems that obtaining cards in this world is indeed very difficult.

Chapter 239 Purchasing the "Giant Axe Raider"?

"I'd better avoid places like this, or my wallet might not be able to handle it."

Yu Ji walked out of the store carrying the box, sighing inwardly.

Of course, this is not the main reason. The real reason is that with his mental strength, cards with the power of spirits are simply unusable and can only be used for collection.

"As expected, we should still prioritize the system. Wouldn't it be a waste of resources not to use readily available cheats?"

It was only then that Yuki realized how good this duel link system was.

He checked and found that he had completed the enrollment task and had received two extra rewards: defeating Cronus and Seahorse Ruri.

At the time, You Ji was focused on playing cards and didn't notice the system's notification at all. Now that he checked, he realized that these two people were truly lucky stars.

Perhaps because he had defeated a stronger opponent, these two people gave him an astonishing amount of system experience and diamonds. The experience could be used to upgrade the system, and the diamonds could be used to open packs within the system.

After thinking about it, Yuki decided not to open the pack.

For him, the most important and happiest thing right now is opening the real card pack!

He couldn't wait to find a coffee shop, book a private room, order a few things, and eagerly tear open the packaging.

Perhaps it was a stroke of incredible luck, for the moment he tore open the first card pack, a golden light flashed in his eyes!

"It's a UR card! I didn't expect to get a UR card on my first pack. Let's see what kind of good card it is!"

You Ji was immediately overjoyed and couldn't wait to pick it up and take a look...

[Giant Axe Raider]

[Level 4 stars]

[Attack 1700, Defense 1150]

"Axe King! It's you!"

Yuki felt he couldn't breathe and almost suffocated to death.

He then remembered to open the card pack and saw that the logo on the cover was the mighty Axe King.

"What a fraud!"

Yuki wanted to throw the card again, but thinking of the tragedy during the entrance exam, he forcibly suppressed his anger and gently put down the Axe King.

At this moment, he also thought of what Kronos had said: first-year students' mental strength is quite fragile and cannot withstand overly powerful spirits, so they can only come into contact with ordinary summons and low-level monsters.

Yuki was so excited that he forgot about it, but now 50,000 yuan has been wasted!

He sat down dejectedly and continued to open his wallet, but the excitement from before was long gone.

Sure enough, what came out were mortal bones even more pitiful than Axe King's, the kind that no one would pick up if thrown on the street.

Of course, in the world of Yu-Gi-Oh!, because they contain the power of spirits, they cannot be discarded even if they are not used, otherwise they will be expelled according to school regulations.

The only thing that gave him some comfort was that the three Pots of Greed had been opened.

"Not bad. Although I can't use the other cards, with the invincible Pot of Greed, what more could I ask for?"

Yuki comforted himself with three "Pot of Greed" cards, which looked rather strange, contrasting with the lewd face on the cards.

Just then, the waiter carrying the food came in with a plate and saw this scene as soon as he entered.

The precious Axe King was left aside and ignored, but he was laughing while holding three R cards. This guy must be a fool.

She rolled her eyes and switched to a sweet, business-like voice: "Sir, your order has arrived."

"Oh."

Yuki carefully put away the Pot of Greed, while the other cards were casually placed in the storage box provided by the card shop.

Just as he picked up the Axe King, a slender, fair hand suddenly pressed down on the card.

"What do you mean?"

Yu Ji looked up and saw two large white hemispheres.

"Holy crap! My eyes have been covered!"

Yuki leaned back and then noticed that a waitress dressed as a maid had somehow walked up to him.

"Young man, if you don't want this 'Giant Axe Raider,' why don't you give it to me?"

"In return, I'll teach you some very... comfortable things."

She rested one hand on the back of the chair, her delicate face very close, and she exhaled softly.

"As expected of a female student from Sakura, her speech is so refreshing and elegant."

Youji rolled his eyes and grabbed Axe King. "But there's no need to talk about this."

Just kidding! Women will only slow down my card-drawing speed.

"Tch, as expected, it's no good. I didn't expect you to be so knowledgeable, you brat."

"Alright, I won't waste any more time with you. I want to buy this 'Giant Axe Raider' card. Name your price."

Upon being rejected without hesitation, the waiter's businesslike smile vanished instantly, and he reverted to his usual demeanor.

Yu Ji: "..."

Does anyone still buy this?

By the way, who are you? Do waiters duel too?

"Being a waiter is just a part-time job for me. I'm just here to earn some extra money."

The woman replied impatiently to Yu Ji's question.

"Aren't the college scholarships quite high? Do I still need to work to earn money?"

Yu Ji asked with some doubt.

“I’m not a freshman this year, I’m… a repeat student.”

The woman's face twitched a few times, but she still spoke.

"Ok?"

Yu Ji was speechless. Could he still repeat a grade?

After the woman explained, he learned that the Duelist Academy had seven grades, and each grade studied different things.

First-year students have their own campus to protect them from being destroyed by upperclassmen, since playing cards can really kill people in this world.

Second and third-year students share a campus, where they begin to learn special moves, fusion techniques, and other skills, and gradually master the combination of magic and trap cards.

Fourth and fifth graders share the same campus and are exposed to synchronized summoning, where various powerful magical traps emerge as their pace quickens.

The sixth and seventh grade campuses are full of experts. They not only need to master the Super Summoning, but their mental strength is also as deep as the ocean. Ten quasi-Duel Kings are all in this campus.

Promotion exams are held every six months, and the evaluation criteria for repeat students vary from grade to grade, but this is the first time for (Qian Wang Zhao) in his first year.

Those who fail the promotion exam on their first attempt are considered repeaters. They not only receive very little scholarship, but also have to compete with new students for resources.

For example, this girl named Isuzu just wanted to have fun when she first enrolled. She failed the promotion exam and failed again after repeating a year due to bad luck.

In other words, she has been in first grade for more than a year, and her scholarship is not enough to cover her expenses, so she has to work part-time.

Even so, she was unwilling to drop out of school, because if she dropped out of the glorious Duelist Academy, she would be looked down upon by everyone.

When You Ji asked about the content of the promotion exam, he was speechless.

As it turns out, while the promotion exams for first-year students are slightly different, generally speaking, as long as you have a monster with 1700 attack power and an equipment card that increases attack power by 500, you can pass safely.

Unless you're extremely unlucky and your card synergy isn't strong enough, you won't be able to draw the right cards at crucial moments.

Chapter 240 The Unsettled Duelist Academy

"I've already told you, this card is really important to me, please give me a price."

Finally, Isuzu said through gritted teeth.

Yuki was exasperated. He was working part-time as a waiter, yet he was here buying cards at exorbitant prices. What kind of mentality was that? You'd probably only find people like that in the Yu-Gi-Oh! world.

Even if I wanted it, you couldn't afford it.

Because Axe King was the key card for passing the exam, he suddenly became highly valued.

But it's useless for Youji, since the system has given away a whole bunch of similar cards.

Isuzu fell silent. Indeed, she was struggling to make a living, and even if she had the card, she couldn't afford it.

Seeing this, You Ji sighed helplessly and handed over the Axe King in his hand.

"Ok?"

Isan, the 52 phosphorus, opened her eyes wide in surprise.

"Anyway, this thing is useless to me. If it can help you, I think the spirit in the card will be happy."

Yu Ji said, then took out another Sword of Obsession from the storage box, "I'll also give you this equipment card that adds 500 attack power, so don't fail again."
