Um, can I ask a question?

In the blink of an eye, Kudou had already been at the Duel Academy for a month. During this month, he attended a few classes, and he had to admit that schools all over the world were pretty much the same, with a bunch of chaotic subjects. However, since this was a duel-focused academy in the world of anime, written tests were nothing; as long as you passed the duel exams, other subjects could be ignored. So during the monthly exam's written test, he thought to himself while half-asleep: 'Back before I transmigrated, I was constantly doing homework in the Celestial Empire. Thinking back to that painful time and wanting me to pick up a pen to take a test again? No way. Just bring it on. Anyway, I didn't really intend to come here in the first place.'

Since it was an academy, they had to conduct monthly exams to reassess dormitory placements. This was also meant to better identify capable students for training; after all, the Duel Academy wanted elites, not trash!

Forget it, I'll just submit a blank paper and then head over to Aunt Domi's store to buy card packs. Once I have 40 cards, that should be enough. After all, this is just an exam—speed things up. Otherwise, that guy Chronos will buy up all the card packs, so I need to hurry.

Kudou submitted his blank paper to Chronos on his own, completely unaware of Chronos's dark, greenish-black expression. After all, as a student of Obelisk Blue, it was the first time someone had submitted a blank paper. As Kudou walked out of the exam, Chronos muttered: 'Kusachi Kudou, you truly are the worst student. Thanks to connections, you got in, but in this exam, I will definitely kick you out of the academy... and you too, Yuujo Judai, hehehe.'

Judai and Sho: 'Kudou is amazing, I need to work harder too!'

Asuka: 'I can't believe it! Completing the written test in such a short time, you always surprise me!'

Misawa: 'That fast?'

Banjoume: 'Th-that guy, damn it!'

These guys would be in for quite a shock if they knew Kudou had submitted a blank sheet.

After leaving the exam room, he headed straight to Aunt Domi's shop. Luckily, Chronos hadn't bought up all the cards yet. Kudou casually drew a few packs and mostly got low-level monsters, some powerful traps, and unexpectedly, one high-level monster: Dark Magician. For this world, this card was incredibly rare. Kudou looked at the monster in his hand and thought, 'Dark Magician is the trump card for this exam?'Really interesting. But the deck doesn't have enough 40 cards, forget it, I'll add a few more when I go back. But I never thought that even though I have every card in Yu-Gi-Oh!, I would still buy booster packs.

Not long after Hudo left, Chronos came to Tomy's shop and bought all the cards. However, here, just like in the original, all the cards were given to Banjo in response to his request to defeat Tendo; as for Hudo, it seems he found a very strong opponent.

When Tendo and his group arrived at Tomy's shop, they were told the booster packs were already sold out, and they were quite disappointed at that time. However, just like in the original, they still got Evolution Wing.

“Hudo, I really didn't expect you to hand in a blank score,” Asuka said, sitting in front of Hudo.

“This isn't... a duel... academy, is it? Written tests and all that are just trivial; in the afternoon... as long as I win the duel, that's enough,” Hudo said unclearly.

“Even so, if you lose the duel, you might have to change dorms,” Asuka said with concern.

“Asuka, are you worried about me? Don't worry, I'm not that easy to beat,” Hudo said confidently.

Noon passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the practical exam began. The exam was divided into eight groups conducting duels simultaneously, with students from the same dorm color grouped together. Soon it was Tendo's turn.

At this time, Professor Chronos came out and said to Tendo: “Tendo, considering your strength from the entrance exam, ordinary people are no match for you. I've decided to make Banjo from the Blue dorm your opponent. If you win, how about promoting you to Sun God Yellow?”

“Sure! I want to duel against very different duelists, I accept any challenge!” Tendo shouted.

Unlike the original, Banjo did not use the manga version Dragon deck with Light and Dark Dragon as the ace. Instead, by continuously wearing down the attack points of Light and Dark Dragon, Tendo ultimately won with E-Hero Edge-3. Evolution Wing wasn't used at all in this exam.

After Tendo's exam, it was Hudo's turn. As soon as Hudo stepped onto the duel field, Chronos said: “Considering you defeated an excellent mentor and your strength, I've also found an opponent for you.”

“Who is it, Professor Chronos?”

“Since it's a Blue dorm student, of course your opponent will be from the same Blue dorm,” Chronos said slyly.

“No need to tell me, I already know who my opponent is.”Hutang pointed to the lane opposite. The spectators in the stands were very shocked to see that Caesar Liang actually appeared here. Occasionally, someone would exclaim, 'How is that possible? Caesar is actually here.'

Hutang said to Caesar: 'I thought I could deal with him with just an ordinary deck, but it turns out to be Caesar. No choice, I have to readjust.' Hutang spent a minute replacing some useless cards in his deck, then said to Caesar, 'DUEL time.'

'I am looking forward to dueling with you, Hutang. Let's start.'

'DUEL'

'DUEL'
