Chapter 45
The Shadow Hero, a Deck of Endless Evolution

“Yu-Gi-Oh! Tenjo, what's going on?”

Asuka hurriedly looked at Yu-Gi-Oh! Tenjo.

“Huh? Tenjo-sensei, you haven't heard? He's going to participate in the professional league, so his studies at the middle school will be temporarily put on hold…...”

Kagurazaki blinked, curiously saying, "This should have been all the rage these past few days, right? A lot of people are discussing it privately."

Yu-Gi-Oh! Tenjo didn't say anything, obviously tacitly acknowledging it.

“You're going to leave, how come I haven't heard you say anything about it?” Asuka couldn't accept it.

She looked at Yu-Gi-Oh! Tenjo, her eyes even had anger that she herself didn't notice.

I still haven't found a way to defeat him.

He's actually going to drop out…...

"There's no need to talk about this, is there?" Yu-Gi-Oh! Tenjo countered.

This left Asuka speechless.

Yeah…...we're not really close friends.

We're just classmates who know each other.

We don't even talk to each other more than ten times a day.

But…...

Why am I feeling so upset…...

Watching Yu-Gi-Oh! Tenjo leave indifferently.

Asuka sighed and looked at Momoe: "Let's go, Momoe."

"Asuka…..."

Momoe could tell that Asuka's mood seemed to have changed.

Yeah, he's the opponent she's determined to defeat.

But before she gets stronger, he's leaving…...

What's going on?

Following Asuka's footsteps, they left.

On the playground, only Kagurazaki was left.

He scratched his head, feeling like something was a little off.

"The relationship between these two…...it seems kind of subtle."

......

Yu-Gi-Oh! Tenjo's participation in the Duel League quickly became a hot topic in the academy.

"He's so amazing, a middle schooler actually participating in the professional league filled with professional duelists. I wonder if I can sign up for the competition, too?"

"Don't be silly, Yu-Gi-Oh! Tenjo is the champion of the Duel League's junior division. What kind of champion are you?"

"But being able to participate in the professional league at such a young age, there are only a handful of people in the world, right?"

"I heard that there's also a genius youngster in this professional league."

"Huh? Really? I'm definitely going to the live event!"

In the lively discussion, there were many speculations about this professional league, and envy towards Yu-Gi-Oh! Tenjo.

Being able to participate in this world-class competition at this age, this is the dream of countless duelists.

All the students envied Yu-Gi-Oh! Tenjo.

Huh? You said jealousy?

When someone is so outstanding that others can't even catch up.

Jealousy, is something that won't exist anymore.

Just like no one would be jealous of the emperor's power, there's only envy for the imperial power.

"Damn…...Yu-Gi-Oh! Tenjo…..."

Jaden Yuki sat in the corner of the classroom, listening to others discussing the professional league, his heart filled with helplessness.

"That guy…...has he already reached that level…..."

"Damn…...damn…..."

Tightly clenching his fists, Jaden Yuki's eyes were filled with dissatisfaction.

......

In the dormitory.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Tenjo sat cross-legged on the bed, looking at the cards placed in front of him.

All the heroes were spread out before Yu-Gi-Oh! Tenjo.

【Elemental HERO】 【Masked HERO】 【Destiny HERO】

As all the HERO cards in Yu-Gi-Oh! Tenjo's current deck, he also began to consider what kind of tactics he should take in the professional league.

The card pool in this world wasn't as shallow as Yu-Gi-Oh! Tenjo imagined.

Although his deck did have some cross-era cards exchanged from the system.

But overall, the single-card strength placed in this era could only be described as mediocre.

You know, Yu-Gi-Oh! GX is an era where forbidden cards are flying everywhere, and overpowered cards abound.

Like some later cards such as 【Forbidden Droplet】 【The Ruler of the Underworld】 【Skill Drain】 【Chaos Space】.

It's completely incomparable to the un-weakened 【Time Goddess's Playful Trick】, the un-banned 【Swords of Revealing Light】, 【Change of Heart】, 【Mischief of the Gemini Demon】, etc.

Blindly investing in cards will only put oneself at a disadvantage.

"I'm actually sparring with new cards against forbidden cards…"

Yu-Gi-Oh! Tenjo closed his eyes and fell into thought.

He had also considered adding some forbidden cards to his deck.

But he searched the system.

He found that the prices of these forbidden cards were ridiculously expensive.

After using a lot of points to exchange for 【Pot of Greed】 【Nightmare's Mirage】, Yu-Gi-Oh! Tenjo was a little strapped for cash.

Not to mention some overpowered forbidden cards, their starting price is millions of Duel Points.

In the Japanese market, the prices of these cards are also sky-high.

Cards worth hundreds of thousands of yen, millions of yen, are everywhere.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Tenjo himself was an independent person.

Although his family is well-off.

But he's not going to ask his family for money to buy cards.

"It seems the best way to win is to continue with the 【Destiny HERO】 style."

Yu-Gi-Oh! Tenjo picked up a card.

Looking at the field spell card that says 【Magic Cylinder】 on the card, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Destiny HERO, it's also a deck that can evolve infinitely…..."
