Generally speaking, counting the deck loaded in the Duel Disk, one needed at least nine decks on hand when going out—this was even without a backpack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You Xuan took the deck and briefly skimmed through it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That Titan guy was just a con artist, a street swindler—he never even played a card in the anime, just sneaked up behind Asuka and knocked her out, then kidnapped her to force Jida to duel him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t even play seriously; he used hypnotic tricks to fool his opponent, and as soon as Jida exposed his tricks, he immediately quit and tried to run.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had no card ethics and no real skill; dealing with a second-rate player like him didn’t require any code of honor—just let the spirit attack outright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is called confiscating the tools of the crime.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As expected, the deck Titan used was a Demon deck. Though at least it was a proper series, overall it had no cards he considered particularly strong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But even if he couldn’t use them, selling them for a good price wouldn’t hurt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You Xuan had already sold off many cards from the decks he’d picked up that he couldn’t use. He realized that simply collecting and selling decks was a decent income stream—so far, the extra cards and Duel Disks he’d gathered were enough to sustain him for a long while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good work. You did well.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You Xuan smiled and patted Silent’s head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silent, who had been pouting in annoyance, froze in shock—her master had just given her a head pat. Her social anxiety kicked in again, her cheeks faintly flushing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, she turned into a streak of white light and vanished into the deck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You Xuan stared at his hand, still suspended in midair, and reflected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why did that reaction feel like rejection?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jida’s voice came from the hallway: “This room’s empty too. You Xuan, did you find anything? Eh?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he entered, he’d just caught a glimpse of that white silhouette vanishing into You Xuan’s deck. He blinked twice, then rubbed his eyes hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Did I just see that? You Xuan, is that...?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Winged Chestnut Ball fluttered out and landed beside Jida: “Kuri kuri~!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah, so that’s it! I wasn’t imagining it!” Jida’s face lit up with delight. “You have a spirit too, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Winged Chestnut Ball nodded vigorously—though its entire body looked like a head, so it appeared to be bouncing up and down while flapping its wings: “Kuri! Kuri kuri!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jida nodded: “Yeah, I understand, partner.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You Xuan: “...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was genuinely curious—how the hell did you all understand Chestnut Ball’s speech?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every syllable sounded exactly the same to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if encountering a rare kindred spirit, Jida excitedly grabbed his arm: “Since I was little, I’ve heard strange voices.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“At first, it was in my dreams at night—I kept hearing someone calling my name. I’d often wake up and go check on my deck.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And then the spirit appeared?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, nothing happened after that.” Jida scratched his head sheepishly. “Haha, obviously it’s not that easy to see a spirit. For a long time after, I stopped hearing anything at all.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But recently, I started hearing them again.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned to look at Winged Chestnut Ball. The tiny Chestnut Ball happily squinted its eyes and nuzzled against his cheek: “Kuri kuri~!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You Xuan understood. Of course—though Jida remembered hearing spirits as a child, he’d completely forgotten about his first spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Poor Yu-jie\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jida’s first spirit should have been Yubel—the spirit who had reincarnated with him since their past lives, vowing to protect him forever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the yandere Yu-jie had protected him too fiercely, turning every friend who ever beat him in a duel into a vegetable. Afterward, she was branded a cursed card and blasted into space by a Kaiba Corp rocket.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since then, Jida had been tormented by nightmares about Yubel, so his parents had him undergo memory-erasure surgery. Now Yu-jie was completely forgotten.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your spirit looks really powerful, You Xuan!” Jida exclaimed. “Can you show it to me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Uh, about that...” You Xuan hesitated. “She’s shy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jida: “?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, a scream came from a nearby room: “Ugh!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jida startled: “That’s Hayato and Sho’s voices!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He bolted out the door and ran down the hallway toward the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What happened?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just now... something! Something passed by!” Sho stammered. “This place is really weird!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You Xuan walked a little slower and, as he stepped out, caught a glimpse of a strange green blur zipping down the hallway and vanishing behind a door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And he thought he’d seen that thing before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jida frowned: “I didn’t see anything. Did you two imagine it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No way! Hayato and I both saw it!” Sho shouted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You Xuan: “Don’t be afraid. It’s just a ghost.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone: “???”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t you think that’s a weird thing to say?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But You Xuan wasn’t joking. He remembered—it was a Bone Monster card. He’d never even seen one in his past life; he’d only come across it while memorizing questions for the Duel Academy exam.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Ghost, 2 Stars, ATK 600, DEF 800】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Description: A vengeful spirit formed from souls unable to find peace after death—a genuine, unambiguous ghost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this is the Yu-Gi-Oh! world—even ghosts can’t escape becoming cards. So despite sounding terrifying, it’s just a 600-ATK Bone Monster, instantly crushed by either Great Expansion or Silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed, even ghosts in the Yu-Gi-Oh! world aren’t worth fearing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But what troubled You Xuan was why a monster spirit had suddenly spawned in this dormitory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Kuri!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Winged Chestnut Ball took flight, as if urging the master to follow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Winged Chestnut Ball, wait!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jida hurried after it, and the others followed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They passed through the hallway and entered a dark, ancient room behind the Chestnut Ball.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The floor bore an unknown ritual array, as if once used for ceremonies. The walls were covered in intricate inscriptions and symbols—among them, he even spotted depictions of ancient artifacts long vanished from the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jida walked to one of the stone slabs and gently brushed away the dust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ancient Artifact... someone once studied Dark Games here?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Kuri!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Winged Chestnut Ball drifted beside him, its tone now serious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Chaos Soldier suddenly materialized beside You Xuan and warned in a low voice: “Be careful. The space here is distorted...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he finished speaking, the ritual array on the floor suddenly flared to life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A blinding flash erupted, engulfing You Xuan and Jida. Instantly, they felt the ground vanish beneath them—the world spun violently, as if being pulled into another realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You Xuan had experienced this once before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Exactly like when he’d accidentally fallen into the Spirit Realm last time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1185,"2026-06-19T08:58:34.393Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","5b7ce4f7a6c0d80ed33ad1b5a8518ad11a54231817bc52466bf961b6e7fed3be","who-let-him-play-yu-gi-oh-chapter-95","who-let-him-play-yu-gi-oh-chapter-93",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fwho-let-him-play-yu-gi-oh-cover.jpg"]
