Chapter 307: Professionalism is Just for Fun
Sommelier took a deep breath.
He suddenly remembered that when this student stepped onto the stage, someone introduced him as a first-year freshman...
No, before that, he was even wearing a yellow uniform.
Sommelier had heard of the basic rules of Duel Academy. Student dorms were divided into Blue, Yellow, and Red according to rank, and there was a strict order of hierarchy.
Blue-uniformed students were the elite; in fact, some newcomers in the professional circle sometimes came from the Blue dorm of Duel Academy. The Red dorm was for the bottom-feeders; historically, no Red dorm student had ever entered the professional circle, and that dorm was full of rookies struggling at the passing line.
Although the Yellow dorm couldn't be called trash, it should also be just mediocre. This person wore a Yellow uniform, which should reflect his strength, and he should belong to the middle level in the academy.
This was Sommelier's naive thought before the match.
And now he just wanted to find the academy's principal and have a good chat about their management problems.
Especially wanting to question what consideration they had for putting this kind of monster in the Yellow dorm?
Sommelier, the eighth-ranked professional, had deep doubts about the vision and judgment of the teachers at this academy.
This thing can only get into Ra-Yellow at your school?
He suddenly had the urge to drag the principal out, press his bald head down, and have him duel this Yellow-dorm student.
Come, come, you try it yourself and see if you can win against this thing.
Then explain to me what a Ra-Yellow student is.
"Hmm, that was a good duel, none."
Professor Chronos stepped out with a smile.
"I believe everyone should have gained some inspiration from this duel today."
Sommelier: "I..."
Inspiration? What inspiration?
Logically speaking, he was invited as a professional master to educate the students, yet now he felt he was the one being educated.
Was this person really a student? Not some hidden big shot you dug up specifically to tear him down?
Then he saw Professor Chronos turn to Fujiki You Xuan: "That... Fujiki You Xuan-kun, although the duel performance was very beautiful, I hope to see your true main deck next time, none."
"Students, everyone is very interested in your true deck now; that way, we should be able to gain more guidance and inspiration from the duel..."
"Understood, Professor, definitely next time," Fujiki You Xuan smiled.
Sommelier: "?"
He suddenly felt he didn't quite understand.
No, translate, what is a "true main deck"?
Does it mean the deck that just crushed him... was still just playing around?
Sommelier looked at Fujiki You Xuan in shock.
Then he saw the latter still as polite as ever, smiling and nodding at him.
"Thanks for the guidance, senior."
Sommelier: "..."
He felt like he was going crazy now.
He even had a thought. In the future, if there's a chance, he would mobilize more newcomers from the professional circle to train at Duel Academy.
The professional circle is just for fun; if you really want to prove yourself, you have to come to Duel Academy and look around.
As for himself?
Heh.
He probably wouldn't come back in his lifetime.
Mr. Sommelier, the eighth-ranked professional, left while whistling.
Watching the back of this professional duelist as he left, Manjoume also fell into deep thought.
Ojama, it's Ojama again...
But Manjoume's state of mind was different from when he was beaten up by Fujiki You Xuan in the representative match earlier.
Now he didn't find Ojama as unpleasant as when he was on the field himself—no, even when watching the Ojama trio use a butt-charge to instantly kill a professional player, his heart moved, as if touching a forbidden area in the depths of his heart.
In fact, he had felt this way before. But that was when the Paradox Brothers came to Duel Academy, and Fujiki You Xuan first revealed this deck called "Ojama" in front of everyone, and used a happy Universe LOCK to take away the legendary Paradox duo.
But that was a tag duel, completed with Judai, and didn't show much of the potential of this trash deck.
Manjoume had gradually forgotten this feeling in his later training.
And now, feeling the happiness brought by Ojama from a bystander's perspective, Manjoume's heart began to stir again.
Could Ojama actually have potential...
"Big Brother, look, we're still quite capable," the Ojama Yellow spirit popped out again. "Isn't there that saying, there are no useless cards, only useless duelists."
"Big Brother, look, you are so wise and powerful with such superb card skills; if it were in your hands, you would definitely be able to unleash the powerful strength of us brothers just like Lord Fujiki You Xuan..."
"Shut up," Manjoume said irritably. "No need to say more, I won't use trash cards like you; it doesn't fit my persona at all!"
"Big Brother is so mean," Ojama Yellow whispered. "But I clearly saw yesterday that Big Brother secretly went to the small shop and picked up a few Ojama components from the pile of discarded cards no one wanted."
"Big Brother is clearly secretly building an Ojama deck, just refusing to admit it..."
Manjoume's face turned red instantly.
"Urusai!" (Shut up)
Manjoume shouted angrily.
"That's called knowing yourself and knowing your enemy, understanding your opponent! Who said I wanted to build a trash deck like yours?"
"I, Manjoume Jun, even if my deck is confiscated, even if I'm at the bottom of the academy, even if I'm doomed, I will absolutely, definitely, no matter what, never use a trash deck like you Ojamas!"
"How can this be, Big Brother is so mean..."
Leaving the venue, Fujiki You Xuan stretched.
Comfortable.
Dueling is indeed a relaxing and happy entertainment project; after playing a round of cards, he felt much better now.
There are benefits to communicating with professional players. Fujiki You Xuan was already considering playing online in the Link System when he had time; it was said there were quite a few professional players online, and maybe there would be good opportunities for exchange.
Conversely, it should also be good training for professional players. After all, they don't often encounter such interesting duels in the professional arena, and it's good exercise for their vision, adaptability, and mental state.
But speaking of competitions...
Fujiki You Xuan quickly remembered that Kaito had reminded him to sign up earlier.
So he took out his terminal, opened the registration interface for the Duel City Tournament, and filled in his information and application.
And that was when Judai appeared.
"Wow, Fujiki You Xuan-kun is really amazing!"
Judai suddenly popped out from the side and patted him on the shoulder.
"That's a professional! A professional player! And they had no power to fight back in front of Fujiki You Xuan..."
"It would be the same if you went," Fujiki You Xuan smiled.
This was the truth. How could he be a Yellow dorm student, and Judai was even a bottom-feeder in Osiris Red. If the professional felt the "drawing power" of the bottom students of their academy, the professional would have to doubt life once more.
"Damn, so envious, Fujiki You Xuan dueled a professional player again, and I didn't get a chance..."
As Judai spoke, he suddenly noticed the form Fujiki You Xuan was filling out.
"Eh, Fujiki You Xuan, what is this?"
"Registration form, Duel City GX tournament, it's opening soon. It's during our winter break."
Judai's eyes lit up.
"Duel City, could it be that legendary one? Doesn't that mean there are tons of powerful big shots participating?" Judai was instantly excited. "Then what about me? What about me? Can I go too?"
