Duel Academy Island, Osiris-Red Dormitory on the coast.
"Today is another day full of 70,000...ahem, hope!"
As the rising sun spread its light into the room along the cracks in the curtains, Judai had no intention of staying in bed. He jumped out of bed happily and shouted slogans excitedly to usher in a new day.
Although Sho Marufuji who was in the same room with him had also woken up a little early, he still huddled lazily under the quilt and didn't want to come into contact with the cold air outside. Seeing Judai getting up so energetically, he rubbed his eyes and felt
Wearing glasses and unable to see far away due to myopia, he half-squinted his eyes and said, "Brother is really energetic. It's still so early and there are no classes today..."
"Although it is true that there are no classes today, Xiang, have you forgotten why there are no classes today?" Although Maeda on the top bunk looks big, his movements are quite gentle as he folds the quilt on the bed.
It gave Sho Marufuji a sense of sway below, "You obviously worked hard to be shortlisted a few days ago."
"Ah, I remembered, the selection competition is over today, right? Then, the official quarter-finals will begin." Maeda Hayato's reminder made Marufuji Sho also think about what day it was, "It's no wonder, brother
So excited because he ranked second and was shortlisted for the quarterfinals."
"But it's really strange to say it. I've obviously shown such awareness before. If it were an anime or a novel, it would at least have a popular supporting character, right? In that case, shouldn't I be like my elder brother?
Are you going to show up in the quarter-finals?" Sho Marufuji sat up from the bed, with a reluctant expression on his face, "It doesn't matter even if he is eliminated by some powerful opponent later on, there can even be a 'Death of Sho Marufuji' or something like that.
The plot then asks my eldest brother to help me get revenge or something."
"In the end, I didn't even make it to the top eight despite working so hard?"
"Xiang, you said it's a novel or anime. No matter how you think about it, it can't be the same as reality. 'There must be something wrong with the brains of people who seek reality in an illusory world.'" From the above.
After laying down the bed, Maeda Hayato patted Marufuji Sho's shoulder, "However, in the early stages of the trials, I didn't improve my ranking at all, but in the last half month, I took advantage of others' slack and improved my ranking to the top ten. Sho, you have already
Well done.”
"Although it does make me feel comforted, I still feel unwilling to do so." Marufuji Sho sighed and looked at Judai who had quickly changed into pajamas, "Brother, you must take Maeda and I with you.
Let’s fight together for your sake, and we will cheer for you.”
"Oh! I also want to fight a few more duels, and I will win all the way. And Caesar is also waiting for me, so we can meet in the finals together." Judai turned his head at a 45° angle, making people worried.
His neck, "will win!"
————The dividing line of victory declaration after awakening——————
"By the way, who is the strongest student in the school?"
"It must be Lord Caesar."
"Although it depends on the situation, I personally think it's Caesar Liang."
"Isn't it Caesar? But it's a different story if we include Judai."
As soon as Asuka's words came out, for a moment, Junko Makurada and Momoe Hamaguchi, who had been chatting animatedly just now, stopped talking and turned to look at Asuka: "Huh?"
"Although the reputation of Yujo in the red dormitory in the school seems to be improving little by little, in the end, his strength is only based on the red dormitory he is in, right?" Momoe said strangely, "Why?
Asuka, do you think that Yujo can be compared to Caesar?"
"Momoe is a fan of Kaiser-senpai, which is a little biased." Junko crossed her arms in front of the heart, "But even Junko, from an objective point of view, that Yujo Judai can compete with Huang Dormitory
Misawa Sky and Wan Zhangmu of Blue Dormitory are on a par with each other, but they are only stronger among first-year students. Can they really be compared with Senior Kaiser?"
"Obviously, in the previous two-person duel, it was only thanks to Senior Kaiser that we won the victory."
"That's not the case. I was clearly helping you two explain and analyze the duel with the Maze Brothers. Judai also worked very hard to win." Asuka said helplessly as she looked at her two best friends.
, "After all, Junko and Momoe, your grades really need to be improved. If you don't work hard, it's not impossible to regress to the yellow dormitory."
"You don't want that kind of thing, Mr. Aoki, the dormitory manager in the yellow dormitory, looks so boring." Junko shuddered, "There's a chance that if you stay in the yellow dormitory, you'll become as tired as Mr. Aoki and only get hard."
It is a social beast that cannot be supported, or even the sense of existence has been absorbed and even the name cannot be pronounced correctly."
"Is that some new campus legend?" Momoe complained, but she suddenly smiled and leaned next to Asuka, hugged her arm and said, "Our level is only at that level.
Well, long live the pass, long live the pass, even if someone bullies us, there will be the 'Snow Queen of the Blue Dormitory' to help us, right?"
"Who, who knows someone with that nickname..." Hearing Momoe's words, Asuka turned her head shyly and awkwardly, refusing to be called that strange and middle-class nickname.
Relate to yourself.
"Hey, Asuka, you are still so shy." Junko also moved to the other side of Asuka and said with a smile, "And the reason why I protect Yujo-san so much is because of Asuka... Speaking of which
You're still calling his name 'Judai'~"
"It's just an ordinary friendship. Well, that's it." Asuka tried to keep a straight face, but no matter how hard she pretended to be serious, she still couldn't change the smiling expressions on the faces of her friends beside her.
Then, she simply chose to change the topic bluntly, "Anyway, I have to complete the final deck adjustment before the trial starts this morning, so don't disturb me."
Joking aside, Junko and Momoe did not continue to disturb Asuka who was sorting out her deck and the spare cards she planned to bring today. When Asuka's back was turned to them, the two of them gave a gentle high-five.
Asuka has such a strong personality. She has been very busy recently in order to reach the top eight of the college exchange competition. After all, unlike boys who easily find opponents by making others angry, girls like Asuka go to find opponents to duel.
As you move up the rankings, you will always meet some boys who look down on Asuka due to inexplicable sexism or machismo. They will even refuse to "waste time" in a duel with Asuka using reasons such as "I don't hit women."
It was also because Asuka was always tense and unrelaxed during this period. Even after she woke up this morning and confirmed that she had been shortlisted for the top eight, she was still too serious about preparing for today's official competition. Junko and Momoe specially asked Asuka to do so.
Distract your attention, relax, and relieve excessive tension.
"Speaking of which, there are actually two girls among the students who entered the top eight this time." Looking at the list of top eight on her mobile phone, Junko whispered to Momoe in order not to disturb Asuka who was concentrating, "Except for Asuka,
There is also a girl from another branch."
"I've also seen it, is it Riki Mackenzie from the Western Branch?" Baihui said, operating the buttons on the phone with one hand and flipping through the content displayed on the screen, "There aren't many comments about it on the campus forum.
The content of the opponent’s duel information is so mysterious.”
"Hmph, are all those boys' attention focused on that woman's appearance? Asuka is the beauty of our school, or Hinata-senpai is prettier than her... maybe?" Junko said.
, and I feel a little less confident.
Although the little Hyuga Seika-senpai with the nickname "Black Mamba" has won the honor of "Miss Duel Academy" for two consecutive years as a third-year student, and she indeed deserves this reputation, unlike some pure
The weird thing that won the award for zzzq.
(Immigration status, transgender, overweight, people of color, full of Buffs)
However, I have to admit that this girl named Riki Mackenzie, who is also a third-year student, is not bad in appearance. To be honest, Junko even thinks that she is prettier than Hinata Seika-senpai.
Even when compared with Asuka, who has a friendship bonus in Junko's heart, it's hard to tell the difference because of her mature temperament.
("Black Mamba" Hinata Xinghua: What can I say?)
(Rikki Mackenzie, the unique blond control of Red Eye, Convinced)
"That's right, Asuka is the most beautiful - although this year's 'Miss Duel Academy' will be won by Aunt Dome, someone must be taking advantage of their authority." Momoe said, flipping through her phone.
"We are students of Duel Academy. The most important thing is not the appearance, but the strength."
"That's right...hey! Someone took a photo of Senior Caesar taking a bath."
"Where is it? Send me a copy quickly!"
————The dividing line between Junko who has a nosebleed and looks for a tissue————
In Ryo Marufuji's dormitory, Tenjoin Fubuki seemed to be in his own dormitory, sitting on a chair without any courtesy, holding his chin with his hand, looking like a "thinker".
After getting up early and washing up, Marufuji Ryo walked out of the bathroom and looked at Fubuki who ran to his room early in the morning: "Are you thinking about something, Fubuki?"
Fubuki nodded solemnly: "Obviously I took a selfie, why do other people on the forum only pay attention to you who was accidentally taken into the photo, but no one pays attention to me who is so handsome in the photo?"
"I don't even know where the end of the universe is, how can I know why?" Ryo Marufuji was not too surprised. It would be better to say that in his impression, Fubuki had always been the kind of person who would do things in a serious manner.
It is expected that people would think about such boring questions with a serious face.
"That's so heartless, Ryo. Aren't we partners with the same ambition?" Fubuki looked at Ryo Marufuji sadly, "You have forgotten the promise we made together, to find someone we can spend our lives with before graduation.
Have you made an oath to the person you love?"
"Don't add a past that doesn't exist to me without permission. You are the only one who would want to do that kind of thing. I can't do that, and Fujiwara also..."
Ryo Marufuji paused, and after a brief silence, he shook his head: "You don't want to think about it. Yesterday, you were stuck in the dead line and entered the quarterfinals. In order to celebrate your entry, you took me to a hot spring in the middle of the night. What time was it?
The original photo you posted has long been pushed down by new posts.”
"But now only some of the screenshots of the photos I sent are being forwarded, which is still very annoying." Fubuki put his hands on his hips, "It's decided, Ryo, I'm going to defeat you head-on in the official competition and take away my popularity.
return!"
"The emperor is my heavenly court, Chui Xue! This has not changed from beginning to end!"
"Oh, I'm also looking forward to another duel with you, Fubuki, but unfortunately someone has already made an agreement with me to fight in the finals, so I won't lose before then, even if the opponent is you.
"Looking at his old friend, Ryo Marufuji also showed a smile that was rare for others, and even joked, "Besides, don't you plan to duel with the person in this year's top eight?"
"Asuka? Hum, my lovely sister has grown up a lot, and you don't need me as a brother to worry about it." Fubuki said easily.
But Ryo Marufuji's lips curled up: "I didn't say she was your sister, did I? How could I remember that at the college exchange competition two years ago, there was a person who had a great time communicating with the exchange students from the Western Branch?
What’s that person’s name? Anyway, the exchange student’s last name seems to be Mackenzie?”
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Who, who knows someone with that last name..."
Although they were not at the same time or at the same place, the two brothers and sisters of Tianshangyuan gave almost the same reaction. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, the "Duel Academy Double Wall" who claimed to be a "love magician" and "love prodigal", "
"King" Fubuki actually showed such a shy expression.
————The dividing line used to organize the deck as an excuse to run away ————
"...Adhering to the concepts of 'higher', 'faster' and 'stronger' proposed by the Kaiba Group, Duel Academy has long been committed to..."
"...The major branch campuses and the main hospital have always maintained the principle of 'adapting measures to local conditions and complementing each other's advantages'..."
On the podium, he clearly started by saying "I will say a few words", but after getting the microphone he kept chattering. Sho Marufuji looked at Maeda next to him with a painful look on his face and said: "When every teacher is giving a speech,
Do everyone talk that much? Or is it just Professor Kuronos?"
He hoped that Maeda would never reply to him with the line "It's always like this" that he remembered.
"Try to get used to it, Xiang. You will get used to it in three years." Maeda Hayato said with a smile, "I originally thought that I wouldn't be able to adapt to it. Every time there is a large-scale event, the teachers will come on stage and give a long speech.
A little bit.”
"So, Maeda, are you used to it now?" Sho Marufuji asked curiously, receiving a bright smile from Hayato Maeda, "No, but I will go to work at the International Illusion Society next."
"...Under the leadership of the principal, let's cough!" As he was talking, Professor Kuronos accidentally coughed twice because he talked too much, only to find that someone secretly removed the podium.
The water he had prepared beside him was taken away, and he felt so uncomfortable that he could only add one more sentence, "Now, please give us a few brief words from the principal."
Handing a bottle of water to Professor Kuronos, Hayato walked to the stage, looked at the crowded crowd below, and coughed lightly: "Ahem - the college exchange competition has begun!"
