He then saw Jiang He say with a faint smile, "No, this duel is over." Buzz!

A light suddenly appeared in the graveyard location of the Duel Disk worn by Jiang He.

In front of him, an equipment spell that should have been sent to the graveyard suddenly reappeared in a faint light!

Above this emerging magical equipment, there is a black necklace!

"This Equip Spell Card is... the one that was lying in wait on the field and then sent to the Graveyard by the Spell Card [Reversal Quiz]!"

Aster was startled and seemed to recall something before speaking.

"That's right, it's the same Ambush card that was sent to the graveyard just now through the 'side effect' of [Reversal Quiz]!"

Jiang He said with a faint smile.

"You should be familiar with the effect of this rather common 'junk' equipment, the [Black Pendant] magic, right, junior!"

"This card, when sent from the field to the graveyard, deals 500 damage to your opponent! Go! Black Necklace!"

As Jiang He waved his hand, the equipment magic [Black Pendant] that had appeared on the ground in front of him suddenly lit up, revealing a black necklace with an agate gem pendant.

It quickly flew towards Aster in the distance and tied itself directly around his neck (Zhao Zhao Hao), giving him a suffocating electrotherapy experience!

"Er!!"

As Aster let out a muffled groan of pain, his remaining [500LP] health points after the exchange were instantly wiped out!

"Damn it...!"

Aster stared at Jiang He with a dark expression, feeling quite aggrieved and finding it hard to accept!

Losing the duel wasn't too difficult for him to accept.

It wasn't his full strength; he was only using a "temporary main" deck.

Yet, this youngest and most talented professional duelist was ultimately killed by the effect of a trash Equip Spell Card, [Black Pendant], which was considered as weak as the Disruption Monster!

This was something that Aster Phoenix found rather unacceptable!

[Ding! Aster's Emotion Points +1000!]

"I've heard you have several decks, senior. Could I learn more about them?"

Aster tried his best to suppress his feelings of disbelief and continued to humbly make the suggestion to Jiang He.

However, even though he tried his best to restrain himself.

But Jiang He still sensed something: the change in the little gray-haired boy's mindset after their duel...

Putting aside his blood pressure, he'd also developed a fierce competitive spirit! Jiang He revealed a smile of delight at having caught a fish on the hook, then quickly put on a righteous expression and said, "Since you're so eager to learn, it wouldn't be right for me, as your senior, to refuse. So let's duel until you've gained enough guidance!" Looking at his almost grinning mouth, and seeing that Aster actually dared to duel Jiang He in order to "ask for guidance"...

Whether it was Alexis Rhodes, Jaden Yuki, Chazz Princeton, or Tyranno Hassleberry, who had just become a subordinate, they all immediately showed a strange expression of shock on their faces.

Look at Aster Phoenix!

There are actually such warriors in this world?!

After being frustrated by Jiang He- sensei once, I still have to experience other awful decks?! Jiang He truly has the demeanor of a senior!

Meanwhile, Rei Saotome was quite supportive, acting as a cheerleader on the sidelines.

"..." Jaden Yuki and Chazz Princeton and the others all looked disgusted.

Rather than showing the demeanor of a senior, it's more accurate to say that Jiang He was simply enjoying the pleasure of making others depressed!

However, they soon became quite interested in watching Jiang He change his decks and bring more heartwarming duels to the "new warrior" named Aster! It seemed that it was quite a happy thing that someone was in an even worse situation than they had been, having been depressed by Jiang He He's awful decks before!

Until evening, inside the indoor spa bathroom of the luxury cabin.

"This little gray-haired guy is a professional duelist? He's way too weak."

Jiang He had finished his afternoon duel and was now soaking in the hot spring, muttering to himself with a somewhat dissatisfied expression.

He switched to two different decks, letting his opponent experience the "Iaido Draw" deck with its one-shot kill strategy.

And the Lava Golem Deck, that slow-paced, hellish, prison-like deck.

Let little gray- Aster experience different ways to manage high blood pressure, and take meticulous care of him.

Unexpectedly, after experiencing the Lava Golem Deck, the opponent left without a word, his face darkening and his fists clenched tightly.

They didn't even greet him or say goodbye politely!

This made Jiang He shake his head and sigh with some dissatisfaction.

"Sigh, these young people nowadays are all so impolite!"

This made Camula, who was behind him rubbing his back with a towel, twitch at the corner of her mouth.

She really wanted to say something.

The fact that the freshman named Aster didn't directly engage in a real-life PK was already quite remarkable!

Even though she was just watching from a distance inside the house, she couldn't help but feel a chill run down her spine after witnessing the duel between Jiang He's two underworld decks!

The opponent actually endured the torment of three truly awful decks in a single afternoon!

"But why did that freshman insist on dueling with you, exchanging several decks?" Camula suddenly seemed to notice something amiss and asked with some confusion.

"He probably heard that I have a card he cares about, so he wanted to verify it," Jiang He said casually, a folded towel covering her forehead.

Although in the end he never used that "Dark HERO Deck" at all, allowing Aster Phoenix to get his way.

Keeping the other person in suspense...

"..." Camula instantly guessed at the general situation and looked at Jiang He with a strange expression.

All she could say was that this cunning little devil must have very little humanity about him!

However, she also sensed some ominous energy fluctuations emanating from the freshman named Aster.

Either the other party is working for some dangerous person lurking in the shadows, or the other party themselves harbors some latent malice towards this brat.

At least for now, they are definitely not friendly forces!

From this perspective, it seems quite normal that this cunning brat treated me this way...

Jiang He, while enjoying the relaxing hot spring soak, continued to look at his system panel and take stock of his considerable gains for the day.

[Name: Jiang He]

[Skills: Duel Spirit Sight Ability, Top-Tier Clear Mind]

The Mark of the Crimson Dragon: Dragon Head Mark / Dragon Heart Mark / Dragon Tail Mark / Dragon Hand Mark / Dragon Wing Mark (Grants power to the Crimson Dragon, which materializes Duel Monsters Spirit)

[Currently owned decks: One-Turn Kill Exodia the Forbidden One Deck, Lava Golem Deck... Dark HERO Deck, Relinquished Deck, DD Bomb Deck, Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys Deck, Reversal Quiz Deck.]

[Emotion Points: 9000]

"Goodness, it's already at 9000 again...?" Jiang He's eyes lit up when he saw the 9000 Emotion Points.

He remembered that after redeeming those two new Netherworld card sets that morning, he should have only had 1500 Emotion Points left.

Surprisingly, it has now recovered to 9000!

Aside from his newly acquired goofy dinosaur minion, Tyranno Hassleberry contributed approximately 1800.

The remaining 5700 clearly all came from that little gray-haired guy, Aster Phoenix!

Tipping, reporting, commenting, and sharing

"This little gray-haired guy is a fat sheep, not much different from that hot-blooded idiot Jaden." Jiang He's face immediately showed a satisfied smile.

He earned a whopping 5700 Emotion Points all by himself.

All he could say was, "Please keep up the good work!"

The redemption options in the System Shop haven't been refreshed yet; you'll have to wait until tomorrow.

Jiang He also didn't continue watching.

Instead, after a comfortable soak in the hot spring with the little Sphere Kuriboh, I returned to my room to rest.

However, once he lay down, he immediately discovered something quite troublesome. Logically speaking, now that his relationship with Alexis Rhodes was completely established, he could have easily suggested that Alexis move into the master bedroom.

But now, his little fangirl, Rei Saotome, has also moved in.

They insisted on dragging Alexis Rhodes to stay in the guest room with them...

This completely ruined his plans.

Jiang He felt a slight headache coming on.

Although the "catfish effect" brought about by his little fangirl Rei Saotome was quite good.

He was quite pleased that Alexis had become much more frank these past two days.

But it doesn't seem to be all benefits; there are also some side effects...! This made Jiang He stroke his chin and ponder a way to achieve the best of both worlds.

Then, very quickly, he drifted off to sleep, turning his head away. Jiang He's final conclusion was to think about it again tomorrow!

"It's rare to have no classes this morning, so I can finally relax. What a lovely day!" In the living room of the luxurious cabin, Jaden Yuki sat cross-legged on the floor, stretching and yawning happily.

"That's right, these are the days when we should get together and watch the duels taking place in the professional dueling world."

Chazz Princeton and Bastion Misawa and the others sat with their arms crossed, nodding repeatedly in agreement.

"Hey, what's with all of you guys coming over here during your break...?"

Jiang He's eyelids twitched, and he looked at Jaden Yuki, Bastion Misawa, and Tyranno Hassleberry sitting on the carpet not far in front of the sofa with a black line on his head, and complained with a bit of annoyance.

He had originally planned to take Alexis and her little fangirl Rei Saotome to the beach to sunbathe, as he had said yesterday, since he had nothing else to do.

Let's also take a look at his silly brother-in-law, Atticus Rhodes's flirting antics.

As a result, he had just finished breakfast with Alexis and Rei Saotome in the morning when those idiots all came running over...

"After all, of all the places, only your place, Jiang He's, is not only the most comfortable, but it also has a TV in the living room, meow."

The squinty-eyed Professor Banner had completely learned Chazz Princeton's goofy, shameless nature, and said with a smile.

"..." Jiang He's "sad" suspicions grew after spending so much time with these guys.

Even a righteous and kind young man like Jiang will one day be infected with his shameless nature!

"Pfft."

Seeing Jiang He He's somewhat embarrassed expression, Alexis Rhodes couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.

Then, when no one was paying attention, she secretly and deliberately placed her hand in Jiang He's hand, pretending to be casual, as a gesture of comfort.

This instantly brought Jiang He a great deal of comfort!

He said that it's not entirely impossible not to go to the beach to sunbathe!

It's because he prefers staying home and watching live streams of professional duels!

When Chazz Princeton, Bastion Misawa, and the others caught a glimpse of this scene on the sofa behind them, they immediately fell silent!
