"Jaden Yuki, what's going on?" Asuka asked anxiously, turning to Jaden Yuki.

"Eh? Haven't you heard, Tenjoin-san? Professor Jaden is going to participate in the pro league, so his middle school studies will be temporarily put on hold..." Kagurazaka blinked, asking curiously, "This matter should have been all over the academy these past few days, right? Lots of people have been discussing it privately."

Jaden Yuki said nothing, clearly giving his tacit approval.

"I haven't heard you mention that you're leaving," Asuka said, a little unable to accept it. She looked at Jaden Yuki, her eyes even holding a hint of anger that she herself hadn't detected. She still hadn't found a way to defeat him. And now he was just going to drop out... What kind of situation was this?

"Is there really a need to talk about it?" Jaden Yuki retorted. This left Asuka speechless. Yes... they weren't really close friends. Just classmates who knew each other. The number of times they spoke on a normal day didn't even exceed ten. But... why was she feeling so unhappy?

Watching Jaden Yuki leave indifferently, Asuka sighed and looked at Alexis. "Let's go too, Alexis."

"Asuka..." Alexis could tell that Asuka's mindset seemed to have changed a bit. Yes, he was a rival she was determined to defeat. But before she could get stronger, her rival was leaving... What kind of situation was this?

Following Asuka's footsteps, they left. Only Kagurazaka remained on the field. He scratched his head, feeling that something was strange. "The relationship between these two... seems a bit subtle."

The news of Jaden Yuki participating in the Duel League quickly became a hot topic in the academy.

"So amazing! A middle school student can actually participate in a Duel League full of pro players. I wonder if I can sign up too."

"Don't be silly. Jaden Yuki was already the champion of the Duel League Junior Division. What kind of champion are you?"

"But, there are only a handful of people in the world who can participate in a pro league at such a young age, right?"

"I heard there's also a genius young man in this pro league."

"Eh? Really? I'm definitely going to watch it live!" Amidst the lively discussions, there were many speculations about this pro league, as well as envy towards Jaden Yuki. To be able to participate in such a world-class competition at this age was something countless duelists dreamed of. All the students looked at Jaden Yuki with envy.

Huh? You said jealousy? When a person is so outstanding that others can't even dream of catching up, jealousy no longer exists. It's like no one would be jealous of an emperor's power; they only envy imperial authority.

"Damn it... Jaden Yuki..." Bastion Misawa sat in the corner of the classroom, listening to others discuss the pro league, his heart filled with helplessness. "That guy... has he already reached that level...?"

"Damn it... damn it..." Bastion tightly clenched his fists, his eyes filled with unwillingness.

In the dorm room.

Jaden Yuki sat cross-legged on his bed, looking at the cards spread out before him. All his Heroes were laid out in front of Jaden Yuki. [Elemental Hero], [Masked Hero], [Evil Hero]. As all the Hero cards in Jaden Yuki's current deck, he also began to consider what tactics he would adopt in the pro league.

The card pool in this world was not as shallow as Jaden Yuki had imagined. Although his deck did contain some cards from different eras that he had exchanged from the system, overall, the individual card strength was only mediocre in this era. One must know, Yu-Gi-Oh GX was an era where banned cards flew everywhere and overpowered cards were abundant. Cards like [Forbidden Droplet], [Evenly Matched], [Skill Drain], [Naturia Beast] from later generations were completely incomparable to the unnerfed [Time Wizard], forbidden [Confiscation], [Change of Heart], [Graceful Charity], [Twin-Headed Behemoth]. Blindly adding cards would only put him at a disadvantage.

"Am I battling with new cards and banned cards...?" Jaden Yuki closed his eyes, falling into thought. He had also considered adding some banned cards to his deck. But he searched in the system. He found that the prices of these banned cards were absurdly expensive. After spending a large number of points to exchange for [Pot of Greed] and [Magical Marionette], Jaden Yuki was a little short on funds. Not to mention some overpowered banned cards, which started at several million duel points. And in the Japanese market, the prices of these cards were, without exception, very high. Cards worth hundreds of thousands of yen or millions of yen were everywhere.

Jaden Yuki himself was an independent person. Although his family background was good, he wouldn't ask his family for money to buy cards. "It seems the best way to win is to continue the style of 'Yin Hero'." Jaden Yuki picked up a card. Looking at the field spell card with "Secret Village of the Spellcasters" written on it, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Yin Hero can also evolve infinitely..."
