Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh! novel Chapter 884

Chapter 884: Chapter 884 – The Rise of the Yellow Dorm

Duel Academy’s new-term opening banquet went off without a hitch. The Academy had gone all out this year, laying out a lavish feast for its teachers, students, and guests from afar—so extravagant that the visiting students from other schools couldn’t help but gape.

Jesse Anderson, the owner of Rainbow Dragon, munched on a big shrimp as he curiously asked the new friends he’d just made: "So, uh, is your main campus usually this loaded? A banquet on this scale... back at our campus, that’d be downright unthinkable."

Standing next to Jaden, Misawa said quietly, "You probably can’t even imagine how much the main campus made last year..."

Everyone at the main campus had felt the changes over the past year. The Academy felt richer from top to bottom—benefits and stipends, every new wave of card stock in the school’s warehouse, the discounts, the facilities...

In almost every aspect you could tangibly feel the upgrades. The Academy was getting better literally by the day.

And everyone in the entire school knew why. All of it had started after the arrival of one particular presence, someone everyone both revered and feared, who was as loved as he was resented.

Along with that, another unprecedented change had come—quite possibly for the first time since Duel Academy had been founded: the Ra Yellow dorm had begun to overshadow Obelisk Blue.

In the past, this school championed elite education and enforced a strict hierarchy among students. Yellow dorm students would automatically lower their heads and move aside when they met Blue dorm elites in the hallway. Everyone had a very clear understanding of where they stood.

But that foundational rule, unchanged since the Academy’s founding, was starting to crumble. Yellow dorm students now walked tall wherever they went. Even Blue-uniformed elites no longer dared strut or act superior in front of them.

Seats in the classroom that had once been reserved only for Obelisk Blue students were no longer exclusive; no Blue elite dared arrogantly hog prime seating just because of the color of their jacket.

This year’s incoming class even saw something unheard of: among the middle-school elites who’d been guaranteed direct promotion into Obelisk Blue, fully half voluntarily gave up that privilege and asked to be placed in Ra Yellow instead.

It was the first time Obelisk Blue had suffered such a massive outflow of talent, and the elite teachers of the Blue dorm could do nothing to stop it.

Meanwhile, buoyed by top students—and the presence of a certain unmentionable Lord in Yellow—Ra Yellow’s facilities and perks had been continually upgraded. At this point, the dorm’s overall standard was almost on par with Obelisk Blue.

On campus, people had even begun openly pointing out something that everyone had always known but never said out loud: the three dorms’ colors and names came from the three Egyptian Gods, and every wannabe dueling kid knew that among the three, the supreme deity was The Winged Dragon of Ra.

So why was the Blue dorm ranked above the Yellow dorm that represented Ra? That made no sense at all.

Sure, no one had brought this up before, but everyone understood it was basically an unspoken rule Seto Kaiba had laid down when the Academy was founded.

What, you don’t accept Obelisk outranking Ra Yellow?

Fine. The President says, "Beat the cards in my hand, and then I’ll agree with you."

And so Obelisk Blue became the Academy’s top dorm.

But now, Ra Yellow had brought forth a Lord in Yellow. That person refused to leave Ra Yellow and go up to Blue, and had practically become the dorm’s figurehead. More importantly, he had actually beaten Seto Kaiba.
